A. .TELDDAY AT Je1D(G-EW'AY. Dri1ll of tho Hampton Rifle Guard - Spooches by Major homias and Cap tuin Dosportos. R)ou--vAv. August 29.----On Tos day, 27th inst., the Hampton Rifie Giard appeared in'fifll iniforin for the first timo, and presented quito a showy appearance. Their uniform is a (ark b)Wlue coat, ti immed with rod, white pants, and cap to match coat. The ladies say ou1r uniform is very pretty and becoming, and wo aro perfectly satisfed with their tasto. The company formed at the depot and marched to the vacant lot in rear of the Methodist church, whe~rc qjuito a number 6f ladies and citizens wvas assembled to witness the drill. Among the spectators was our newly elected major, w~hom thme Guards acknowledgod by pre senting arms as he passed. The company was then exeroised in the manual of arms, after wich followed the company drill including skir mish drill. On this last the company w~as compliincntod by our major. Modesty forbids us, as a member of tihe company, from saying howv well the manouvres w'as exccated, or howv the girls watched the par ticular "fellow" in whose perform,. anco they were especially inter ested. Night closing -in put an end to field exercisos. The Guards were then marched to the residence *of Captain Dosportos and being comfortably seated woero waited on by the young~ ladies with refresh ments furnished by Mrs. Desportos amnd Mrs. Ruff.' This was 'by no means the least pleasing feature of the day (we speak for t~he Rifle-~ men). After thafnks had boon returned to the ladies by Liouton ant Hinnant for the refreshment, throo rousing cheers wero givon and Captain Desportes called on Major Thomas to address the company. Major Thomas r'espondecd very happily in an impromtu, as'follows: JFe3low-SMoliers of the llamnpton 10fle Ghuar(l :-I expected, wvhen I came up)on the grounds, that the0 enjoyments of thme evening wore to be furnished at the expense of the H~amp~ton Rifle Guard,. but as you have called on me for my con tribu tion, I shall respond briefly. Indeed, 1 would be wanting in common gratitude did I mi0t *tako this occa sion to express to you my sincere thanks for your continued confl. *doncio inl my foeoblo- r'vices. To say that I appreciate your kind ness is but an ihmb~lo acknowledg mont of my inability to find words sufficeont to express to you my thanks. Raised by y'our unsought suffragos to the highest military - ofilee in your gift, singled out from among my follow~oitizons, many of Iylom soar abovo m in lofty intel loet and military genius, i an loior tiat I well may be prou of. If ill the course of our livos it should Iover become necessary for us to lay asido the peaceful pursuits of life, and in oqIoying "stern duty's behest" placo ourselves on a war footing, I feel, vIen I cast my eyes along your sorried ranks, and s0 you standing before mo il solid array, a "living wall of bristling bayonets," that I can venture the assortion that the spotless folds of your battlo-flag will bo stained with some of Carolina's warmest blood ere it triils in lime dust of dishmon. or. As~ regards yoir battalion, it remains for you to say whether you shall have a battalion in name or a battalion in reality. You muist bear iin milnd that for your com mianding oflicer to succeod, 110 must be ably seconded by his subordinate officers and his mon. Do this, and with practico and an emulating spirit of en thusiasim porVading your rink and file, you will yet mako tho celebrated Columbia Battalion bo, Hove that you aro "foomen worthy of their steel." Again tendering you my thanks for the honor con forre;d, I will now bid you adien. Captain Desportos was then called on, and said Ludies, Gen tlemcon, ahd Coknnrades of the hLaIpton Rile G/uard : This is a proud day for you, and a proder day for him who has the homor to commandail( you ; for on this day we see tho fruition of our hopes an the final burial of all ourappro hiniijonus of fajlur.. [Cheus.] Near ly two years ago, in the' fiace of a hostilo government, surrounded by foes in every shape, you had the hardihood to organizo for the defence of your altars and your firesides, and for the overthrow of the worst governmont the world has over witnessed. Truo to the ho-ri tago bequbathed you 'by fathers and brothers, in -many instances dead iijon the field of battle ; true to the baptism received from 'your own wounds, you spurned the flim sy guiso supposed to exist in the words club and president, the night your company leupod into existence, and you assembled and flung to the breoze, upon the very bayonets of the enomy, .u1 inspiring, and proud inamo of "HaImpton Riflo Guard.' And with your flag, now soiled by service--preseonted by the beautiful young ladies who surround you, and for wlioso -approving smiles you would charge upon an abattis of bristling bayonet,' into the lnoutlf of flashing- artillory-you marched, neither wavering to the right nor the left, but waxing bolder and stronger until you placed it with your peorloss governor upon Caro lina's citadel, crowned with civil liberty, independence andi vi'ctoit ! [Cheers,] To-thmAadies, to wvhom we are so largely iiidebted for the handsome uniform we wear', w would expreCss our gr'atitudo. Wec are taught that their fragilo naturc clahns our protection, and we plodge ib to them forever "D)simulao our bondfage as wo will, "is Woman, woman rulecs us stinl." My comriad1es, it roemains only foi me to add a wvord of caution, and. te beg you~ to sleep on your arms, that at'the first sound of alarm you may in "double time" prepare for action. Forget not that the enemies of ' vir~ tue, intelligence, and constitutional liberty are still in your midst, and they outnumber you more than two to one. Boe not deceived, and above all permit not trivial matterd of minor local impjor.tance to caumsc you to fall away from the party of safety, and thme high pr1inlciple9 61 truo D~emocracy as exemplified in thea p)oo and sot forth in the character of the "tallest man in American politics"-A~ado HalmptLon, governor of South Carolina. (Coni tinned cheers.] Lieutenants H-inn ant, Ruff andi Grigsby woero then called for, bul excused themlsolvoa on account of the lateness -of the hour. '' The0 company decided to atton ci in Winnsboro on September 13, tc par'ticipato in the joy of again heainig an~d seeing, our beloved governor. We woero pleasod to have among us3 to-day a dologation from the tG. L.
