My Dear Sir: JEnclosed you have a let
ter which speaks for itself. I know that
politically I have np claims upon your col
umns, but cut off as I now am from . access
to the . "Standard," I throw myself upon
your magnanimity, Well khowlngjthat you
fully appreciate, the sentiment contained
in the couplet, that
f'When truth and justice an affront en
dures, The cause is mine, my friend, and. should
be yours." v : i

Yours truly, f !
W. P. LEAK.
TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF
N. CAROLINA, i
I owe it to myselfas well as to'the par
ty with whom it has been my pride arid
boast to have acted through life, to make
the following statement of facts justifying
my present position before the public; not
doubting that upon a candid review of the
whole ground, it will be seen by all1 un
prejudiced minds, that whatever of schism
may be produced in our party by the recent
nomination of the State Central Committee,
cannot rightfully be attributable either to
myself or friends. I begin, then, by sta
ting, that early in Feb'y there was a meet
ing held in the county of Anson, in which
my friends thought proper to present my
name to the State at large, as a suitable
person to be Tun as a candidate for Gover
nor, and at the5 same time they appointed
a committee to notify me thereof and ask
my acceptance.- On the 21st Feb'y, there
vorably urged; on the 24th of the same
month, a meeting was held at Charlotte
of the citizens of Mecklenburg and Union
counties, expressinga decided preference in
my favor, and urging upon the State Central
Committee to apprise me thereof and my
acceptance: all of which were published in
the Jeffersonian, and of which I was im
mediately apprised by letters. In this state
of affairs, I vjsitedl Lawrenceville, Montgo-
mery county, at which place 1 met trtends
from the adjoining counties, who warmly
urged .-upon .me. to come out as a candidate;
d on the 27th day of Feb'y I made
i,nown f n tuprn thut t vvnnlrt An srt. inrl
that I would announce it to the State at
large, in a letter to the "Anson Commit
tee' accepting their nomination. f
On the next day, the 28th I communi
cated to the Hon. Robt. Strangethe fact
of my having come out and then for the
first time learned that he had received a
letter from Doctor Watson, one' of the
Central Committee, asking him tp repair to
Raleigh on the 4th of March, fbr tthe pur
pose of making a nomiualipn: 'Jj4;r

make known to such of the Committee as
might meet on the4th, my position, and
expressly stated, that coming out asldidj
and at the tune I id, that Ivwould give
place to no nomination the 5 Committee
might make. On returning , home from
Lawrenceville, I wrote my letter of ac
ceptance to the Anson Committee; and en
closed it directly to the "Standard'? for pubr
Iication. This letter" was mailed i on the
2d of March, at Cheraw, S. C.,' and must
iaye reached Raleigh on the 3d at night;
and on the 5th of March I again addressed
him a letter, fearing a .miscarriage. '
On the 9th of March I 'visited Anson
Superior Court, when and ' where
1 again
made it knovyn thatT was a candidate.
On the 12lnpf March, John W. Ellis
and Judge Strange,, tvyo of , the Central
Vinmiitee, at my , request again aatiressea
a letter to the Editor of the Standard. The
letters were handed to Mr. . Guion, of the
city of, Raleigh, and by, him I Jpresume
were delivered at least by the 15th. Xx
What the letter of Mr. Ellis, contained
I know not, but I was informed hy Judge
Strange, that he stated in his letter, that I
was then attending 3nson Coultand was
fairly in the field, and that Jie again advi
sed that there be no collision of interests.,,,
;. On my return home from Anson Court?
I found a letter from . the Editor f of jhp
Standard, dated the 8th of March. He4
acknowledged the reception of my two let
ters, but said nothing about my letter Of
acceptance, which I know he , post have
received, for both letteis referred to it. He
stated thattheGommittee about Raleigh had
written to the other members o
mittee in different parts of the
questing among other , .things,
yould express a preference be
the Com
State, re-
that they
ween, Jas.
B. Shapard and myself, and that as soon as
they were heard -Jrom, a Candidate wouiu
be brought forward. ' , 1:
These are the facts of the case. I regret
exceedingly that any collision jshould be
brought about, f()r We require our whoJeJ
and undivided strength'at the present crisis:
I owe it, therefore to those friends ,who
have beey most active in bringing me, ouf,
as well as to my own character, not, to with
draw, and will canvass the State if I do not
getSOOvotes. u:, --y; ... .,::,";.rr;,l
In conclusion, it will' be seen . whether
the Democratic party . of the $tate,0 1 he
men who do the battles of Democracy "at
