Au'Eihphatio Letter from Oaueral Wade
Hampton. |
.Tho following lotter hus boco addressed by |
Oimoral Wade Hampton to Colonel Chariest
41. Siuiotitou, of Charleston ; ^
, COLL'MIUA, October 8. ?
MY '. 'KAU Stu: $ome timo ?luyo your letter;
asking my opioion as to thu Reform move jg
merit in our State reached mo, und whilst;?
reasons both ot-a public and private character,*
have rostraiucd mo front tukiug un active^
part in tho canvass whioh has grown out ofj
this uiovomciit, I have never had the slightest*
hesitation as to thc course 1 should pursue,$
nor rcluctauco in expressing to my friends^
What that course would be. W ha lover differ M
coces of opinion may have existed muong the.-,,
honest citizens of tho State as to tho bcstS
mode of redressing thogriuvous evils miders
which they have labored for tho la.st fcwS
year?, there wore und could be none as to thea
?xisteuce of those evils, and of thu vital nc ||
cossity ot making a vigorous effort to ref inn*
them. It was this conviction on tho part ol*,
our people which gave birth to and now lends?
impetus to thc Ho lo rm movement, lt was?
this which induced the origina tors of th.s!|
movement, if I estimate their motives cor jt
reedy, to make au earnest und patriotic strug s
^lo to rescue the Stato from thoso who a reg
?disgrueing her hitherto proud nuino and drag %
ging her to ruin. No uiin can bo higher, no5j
?object worthier than thi ?, und though then
toruna udopted to accomplish the purpose ar ol
Hot such us I should have suggested, i tty 111 ?J
puthize too fully with thc object iu viiw, to j
"withhold any assistance in my power fromjS
those whose motives are the same as my owns
?ud whose judgement may bc better. If th is J
movement has for its sole purpose, what 1 tru X%
it lins, thc redemption of our State, the nomi |
noes of tho llefurui party should command i
tho support of every true soo of hers. Thc I
effyrt to save tho State deserves success, even j
should it fail to win it, and as I have not yet
made it the chief article in my political creed,
that success can sanctify u cause that is wrong,
.or justify opostaey from ono that is right, I
regard it as my duty to auppoit tho candi j
dates of tho Reform party. Relieving that!
they arc moving in tho right direction, ll
shall not, from mere pride of opinion, refuse?
to accompany them, because they have takone
a diflbrent road from tho ono I should ha veg
chosen. I cannot voto for the nominees*
of tho Republican party, because, to quotes
the emphatic, though ungrammatical language?
of ono whose high official position in thaljj
party makes him an authoritative exponent*
of its true condition, as bis political characters
renders hun a fit type of its officials, "in some?
of its departments, rot renell lil ont und ie io rm ?j
is, - doubtless greatly needed. Some of its?
offices ure filled by incompetent and corrupts
tuen, who should bc driven from the high
plucrs they occupy Muru economy in thejj
appropriation and disbursement of public!
money should be practiced " Because theirjj
nominee for Governor is, to my certain know) f
edge, false and treacherous ; because this!
party is notoriously corrupt, venal and profil-j
gate, and because, in my opinion, any natives
white citizen of South Carolina w ho votes fori
that ticket will cover himself with deserved}
disgrace. 1 can well und? island how nonestj
?nd true men may doubt ns to tho propriety]
of thc Reform movement, and question tbej
soundness- of its platform, but i o innot com j
prebend how any South Carolinian can iden !
tl fy himself with u set of adventurers and'
plunderer^ who have tiuide the g ?vorn mm. t'
?of his Stat.! what an infiucnti.il radical paper]
hus justly characterized as "a disgrace to]
civilization," and I am uncharitable enough]
lo believe that none will do so, except suohj
ns have been, or expect to bu, paid for form j
ing au alli..nee which they must, fool is dis .
graceful. I could as readily bc persuaded}
that Benedict Arnold acted from ooiiscion ?
tious motives, and in good faith to bis colin ?
trymon, as that any true soo of South Candi-?
na who venerates tho ancient honor of his
State, who is jealous of her pase fame, and.
?desirous of her future welfare, could, from!
patriotic impulse, affiliate with men whose,
only tie to bind them to our Stato is ibo "co j
besivo power of public plunder." Sonic of.;
thc recent converts to this new faith-that!
faith whoso cardinal doctrine it is that the,
strongest side is always right-may boast'
of their devotion to their State, und, as proof j
point to the soars they have received in her]
defence ; but to those I bog to commend a re J
ply once made to this same patriot Arnold.!
who asked? friend what tho Americans would]
do with him if he was captured. "They!
would bury tho leg which was wounded ?ni
their, service with military honors ?nd bang!
the rest of your body," was tho prompt and]
Ignitable answer. Unfortunately for ourStale j
this wholesome discipline cannot bo adminis |
tored to thc patriots of this same stamp among]
?qs, who parade their patriotism while they]
are selling their country ; but it is in t li cl
power, as it is the duty of every honorable!
tuan, to treat thom with tho scorn treachery!
ao richly merits. Let them find, if they can,I
in tho price for which they have sold them
selves und their kindred, compensation for
tho loss of their own solf respect nod tho cs
teem of all honorable men. "Tho ox know
edi its ownor, and tho ass his muster's crib."
The few who havo joined thc ranks of thc?
enemies of their Stato in this supreme hour
of her trial, oan neither give character to the
party tito which they have allied themselves,
or Weaken that which they have deserted.
Their desertion should hut stiuiulato those
who aro honestly working for a reformation
of abusos, to renowed exertions. Even if the
??ominees of tho Reform party should bo dc
fouled, an event which seems now most un
likely, infinite good will result to tho State by
sending honest men to tho Legislature, and.
io any COKO, it is far better to fail in n good
cause than to succeed iu an evil ono. It has
boco said that tis tho nominations of both
p?iti?b tO'tr uliko io pt?s?nting a Republican
to the people us candidato for Governor, no
veal di fie rc nco exists between tho two tickets
Is this tho o'aso? It is true that Judgo Car
penter is, like Governor Scott, n Republican,
but docs that muko thom alike in all other
respeots? The bar of Charleston, oom posed
of gentlemen of the highest standing and
character, hovo boriio willing testimony to
the ability, the impartiality and tho integrity
of Judge Carpenter". Can an equal mini bet
of gentlemen of like respectability in om
Stato bo found to endorso tho official ohftjfho
ter Of R. K. Scott? Can ono decent mani
bo found to do so? Rut admitting, fort?n
sake of argument, that tho nominees of the
respectivo parties for Govornor n.'o on u pm
i-a supposition whioh docs gross injustice to
Judgo Carpenter, and is too extravagant to
gain ' credence from even tho most bigoted
of rad?enla-docs the nomination of the Ro

j Hair Vigor,
For restoring Cray Hair to
ils natural Vitality and Color.
A dressing which
is Ut once a greca. >lof
healthy, and effectual
for preserving tho
hair. Faded or gray
hair is toon restored
to its original color,
v i(h the gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin huir is thick
ened, falling bair checked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by ?ts oso. Nothing cnn restore tho
Jj hair whero tho follicles arc destroyed,
0 or tho glands atrophied and decayed,
s But such aa romain can bo saved for
3 usefulness by this application. Instead
j of fouling tho hair with a pasty sedi
* incut, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
5 Its occasional uso will prevent the hair
? from turning gray or falling off, and
"j consequently prevent baldness. Free
1 from tltoso deleterious substances which
inako some preparations dangerous, tod
injurious to tho hair, tho Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing elso can bo found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dyo, it docs
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on tho hair, giving it a rion, glossy
lustro and a grateful perfume.
