> THE OLD SOUTH.
? t
A. Well Deserred Tribute to Gen. Wade
H?m|*ton Typical Old Tim?
Gentleman.
The appointment of Gen Wade
Hampton by President Cleveland to
the " position of commissioner of rail
roads will please the whole South. It
ia . the position that was filled by the
late Joseph E. Johnston.
In common parlance it is "an easy
berth." It is a good place for the
war-worn veteran, the man of fortune
whose all went with the fall of the
Southern Confederacy. The duties of
tfte place are not onerous.
Gen Hampton has served the South
unselfishly. He is a representative of
the "Old South." We hear much
the "New South" ?these days as
symbolizing progress vim and a de
sire to give the South every advantage
to which it is entitiled by its intrinsic
wealth and geographical position. It
is proper to nrge these claims and to
push onward. The affairs of the
South are rapidly passing into the
control of the generation that has
come up since the war.
We must remember, however, that
n|uch ot the success of the new genera
tion is due to the old. The world has
not yet produced a class of men who,
in strict honesty, probi^. scorn of
deceit, scorn of "short cut^rrankness
in dealing with their fellows, manly
courage, hospitality, in short solidity
of character, has surpassed that "Old
South" style of manhood. It has a
great place in the history of this coun
try. The modern United States owes
much of its present strength and suc
cess to it
The endorsement of a note frequent
ly gives its greatest value. What
would the "New South" be if it did
not have the "Old South" to fall back
upon? To-day in New York, Chicago
and other great cities there are young
men from the South who somehow
find that the fact that they are from
the South is an advantage to them.
A well-informed New York cor
respondent notes that the feet of being
a Virginian of good standing in
Virginia helps a young man there.
This means that the commerical North
sees the advantage of that "Old South"
spirit; sees that honor in business deal
ing, truthfulness, detestation^ of the
"sharp" keenness of the -tinder-hoaest
racer after fortune cau but give bacfer
Bone to "any city. It is easy enougli
to be a forger, a defaulter, a defrauder\
Qf creditors,?a high flyer. These are
all at the expteuse of true manhood.
That such crimes are in the South is
because of the excess of the "New,,
South" idea and of the forgetting off
the "Old South" spirit. t
? We have no patience with the glib
ongued, slight-brained, smart Atleck,
who in one labial , outgiving of gush
undertakes to dismiss as old "chumps,"
"Bourbons," "played out" the old
men whose maimed lives anion j: u#
are eloquent of past sacrifice and ?1eep
wiffering. It is a pleasure to know
that Grover Cleveland, President of
the United States, has indeed found
"a soft berth" for one of them. In
such a recognition he pays a deserved
tribute creditable to himself, to the
"Old South/' beautiful as ir passes
from us and, glorious and honorable iu
all tim$ to come. ? Richmond, Va.,

ARGUMENT TO POSTPONE THE SALE.
A New York Lawyer Causes a SeiiHation in
Court by Severely Criticising a Petition
^ of the City Authorities.
Charleston, March 29. ? The mo
tion to postpone the sale of the South
Carolina Railroad was argued before
Judge Sinjontou in the United States
Court to-day. Ex-Judge Peck ham
and Ellery Anderson of New York,
representing the consolidated first and
second and income mortgage bonds
against the first, argued the motion to
postpone, which was opposed by A.
T. Smythe and T. W. Bacot, repre
senting the second mortgage bond
holders and the holders of some of j
the prior bonds, ft was argued that i
the fact that the case was in appeal !
would chili the bidding.
During the argument counsekop j
posed to the motion to postpone read 1
a paper signed by ?> the mayor and j
council of this city and by the j
Chamber of Commerce, arguing that ;
it would be greatly to the interest of -j
this city if the road was sold on the j
date named in the original order, |
April 11.
Judge Peckham, who argued for
the petition, created a sensation by a
vigorous denunciation of the petition.
.He was of the opinion that if the
signers of that paper had appeared in :
court and attempted to say in person I
what their paper said, their ardor
would have been allowed to cool itself j
in the county-jail. He said, also, that ;
his experience led him^iy believe that
the recommendations W mayors and j
city councils were usually enough to j
justify a contrary decision. Court j
reserved its opinion.
Judge Simonton took the papers. <
The opinion here is that the sale will
not take ^lace on the 18th of April,
although there is no special reason
given for it.
It appears that some person un
known made a cross markjtpposite the
name of each of our \ party congress- j
men in the official list presented t o the
postmaster general. The n each of the j
uuhappy individuals so designated j
proceeded, to mak-* cross remarks. ? |
