The Late Col, wade Hampton

The Columbia South Carolini ian pays just tri.
butte TO tae memory of distinguished citizen OF
that State, whose sudden death, in Natchez, Miss,
we announced yesterday. We extract the follow.
Ing biographical sketch:
Gel. Wade Hampton vas the son Of Gen. Wade
Hampton, of Revolutionary memory, and Harriet
Fiud aud Was horn in Columbia, on the 25th April,
1I9l SO that he had nearly completed his sixty
eighth year. His education was at the South Car
oiina College. which he left at the commencement
OF the war OF 1872, to accept commission Lieu
tenant of Dragons in the United States Army
/, After serving under his father in the Northern
campaign, he retired to his plantation inthe South
west, but again volunteered when New Orleans
was considered in danger. and was appointed IN
aid to General jackson in that memorable defence.
His services in that battle were confidential and
highly valuable, and the subject of the Generals
warmest commendaton. The war being over,
CO... Hampton devoted himself to agricultural pur-
suits, in which he became deeply interested. aud
30 continued to the present time. Long has he
been at the head OF those who have contributed to
the best interests of his native State and Of the
whole South, by liberal, epirted and extensive ef.
forts to improve the breed Of omestic animals of
every kind. In these departments he has been
eminently successful, and enjoyed the proud con-
scousness of doing his State and the South essen
tiai service by the extent Of constant and efficient
exertions.
In the ineipiency OF our railroad enterprise, he
was foremost and earnest TO secure the success OF
what he deemed of vital concern to the State, and
his persoaal influence and public spirit prompted
him at large risk to assume the responsibility OF
securing the charter for the project OF uniting the
great West with the Atlantic In every enterprise
for the good of South Carolina. he was active and
earnest, and hispurse was alwaysready to support
his personal efforts for its advancement.
Ills services in the state Senate, on the Board
Of Trustees Of ths South Carolina College, for forty
years, and in every position to which he was call
ed, were always discharged with sacred regard
4 -
opinions were the result Of cain delberation In l
mind eminently characterized by good sense apS
wisdom, and his patriotism and devotion to th,
State of the most elevated character.
The idol OF the family circle, his deyction.to hi
childrea WAS Of patriarehai beauty, and the arden
refrigeration by them WAS not only the homage y
siliai love, but reverence for high virtues.
