If we read his letter aright It Is noth Ing more nor less ihHii -mi that which would-result in a perma ■.cut division among a |>eople who should he at peipce With themselves ami all mankind. General Hampton hy hi* letter brings again to notice the ghost of the Haskcll- Ism or the 1 nJcpcuJeutisiu which we had in 13'.>0, Because they’ bo not see as he does, General (Hampton wrtuld read the^reat mass of the people of this State out of- the Demojrstlc party, and he counsels the withdrawal of a small faction ef his friends from ail participation in the af fairs of the government, and it may be set down as a fact tbat no man who would take his advice to quit the Demo cratic party to follow him into n little Indeoendent or Uuskcllite squad, "no matter under w hatever name, need cx- pecMo hold olfiee or be anything else than a disturber of the peace. Whatever the facts may be, It will be bard to convince the people that the act of a I’opulist in quitting the Democrat ic parly is essentially iliifeient from that of u national or independent Demo- ernt w ho does the same thing.

General Hampton may as w ell under*' stand this soon as late, and he ought to know that he is no longer a power in South Carolina, and that it will be a long time before he can make any apol ogy for Haskelllsm, and before any movement which originates in Colum bia w ill take hold of Hie people.
