Messrs EDIToRs-ln your paper of Saturday you report Greene county as instructng iis eegaie- to go, first for Coleman and secondly for Terry. have seen letter from prominent democrat who was at the meeting, and who gives different yer sion. He says resolution was offered, ius,ructing the delegation 10 vote for McCLUKG, and Col Win Alon Ihosed to substitute the name of rerry but the amendment was lost by Il l,rge majority Col Clarke then offered substitute for Me- LUNG, the name of Coleman, which passed by equally decisive vote and thus it stands. This makes 'he choice oi the meeting 10 be for Coleman fyst, McCung seeoSd and Terry iast.

 l offer this core ction merely for the purpose ot Sd, Ing word abost your remarks.on tho Mobile meeting You comp lam that this is the only county far heard from, which has instructed exclusively for McClung. But why that he case? Simply because none but the two names of Terry and Me- Clung were presented to the meeting. l have no doubt but that if Coleman any other good third man had been named, he would have received de- cded majority of the votes Those who did not choose Terry voted against him, rather than for Nc

 Clung !, for one, did not wish McClung nominated but as between the two l voted for him, but would much more willingly have voted for Coleman, had his been presented. It is my firm belief that acCIung not Ihe first choice of the democracy uf Mobile, and am equally satisfied that Terry Is not. happen to know that the most prominent speaker against Terry-lIe who has received the most vliiy ing abuse hOm democrats, iD the wing papers too. very much preferred nstructing our delegates 10 vote for Posey, Coleman, Chapman, or any other sso,l Nor:h AIabamian except Terry. l know too, that that very gentleman, who has been represented as the peculiar advocate of McClung, had resolutions which he wished to offer, embodying m part those views, and was only prevented from ing so by the Snayt which the meeting WAS thrown by the zeal ous advocates of Terry and McCiung. But l was satisfied then and au satisfied now, that the same thing would have been done in Mobile which has been done in Greene, ifanother name had been pre- sented to the meeting, FAIR PLAY.
