Senators Hampton and Butler are left off this list bcease they are promi nently identified with the cause oi Mr. Bayard and pledged to him so distinct ly tbat their action in tbe Convention would be necessarily hampered. Al most ail of our Congressmen aro iu tbs same condition and none of them would go fresh from tbe people. ° They have been in Washington and fsr fiom their constituencies for months. Tom Hamilton is suggested as a dele gate at large despite a vague Impres sion we have tbat be Is dead. We hope bs isn’t however, and would like to see him sent to Chicago as a specimen of aBoutb Carolina Democrat who is as btock as the ace of spades but baa brains and courage enough to take cere of bbnaeir anywhere.
