The governor of Virginia, himself a distinguished Confederate veteran, was deliver ing an address of welcome when the door opened and (! moral Wade I ii ihiui(?i'mi, mu ti.'isnuig CilVttlTV leader ami hoau sahreor of the Armv.of Northern Virgina, walked slowly ilown the l?>n^ aisle of the building. His appearance caused an ovation waieh brought tears to his cyrs, and to those of every spectator. Many of the men present had served under him, and such was their delight at th sight df their old chief that Govornor O'Fcrrull was compelled to desist from speaking, while Hampton came forward and said a few words. The governor then resumed his address, hut at the conclusion the cries of 'Hampton, God Mess him!' were so vigorous and prolonged that once more the South Carolina irenernl f?>roo<1 ? r> to address the excited throng. The next day a touching scone took place, when he gathered the remnaria of Hampton's legion ahout him and grasped each by the hand. ***** "He is a southerner of the old school, with polished manners and courtly address. Hois noted for his horsemanship, and in former davs was an ardent sportsman Soon after the war, when asked what course he intended to pursue in regard to the negroes on his plantation, he said: "As slaves, they were faithful to me; as free men I will continue to ho their friend.' In reference to (ten Butler il says: "Scinltor Butler began his pub lie career very young, being elected to tlm South Carolina legislature when barely 24. He renigned his office to enter the Confederate army, and was promoted througl; the various grades until he became major general. At the buttle o1 Brandy Station he receivsel ? wound which lamed him for Iifo, but w hich was the occasion of n touching occurrence. The same hall that struck Butler and killed hi- horse carried death to a younp otlii'cr named Farley.
