J}llstflIaue
Wade Hampton to the People of South
Carolina,


Expecting to leave the State in few
days for ~ uncertain period, | cannot do
So without expressing to my fellow-citi-
zeus my profound sense of the honor paid
to me BY the vote given to me in the re-
cent election for Governor. In returning
my thunks to them for the late spontane-
Gus and extraordinary manifestation of
their kindness, it is due TO them that |
should state the reasons which induced
ME to decline to be a candidate, In the
first place the convention which gave the
election Of Governor to the people had
with singular observation-disclosures not in
their public cnpacity-requested the dis
tingulshed gentleman who has been cleo
ted to become candidate for the office.
This he consented to do, though doubt
less, at great personal Inconvenience and
heavy sacrifice of his private interests.
Under these circumstances was unwilling
to do anything that might causea political
contest to the State. [ thought that no
good could arise at home from such con.
test, whilst it might do US infinite mischief
abroad. The President of the United
States had exhibited not ouly strong dis
position to protect the South from the rad
icalism of the North, but to reinstate
US in our civil and political rights. |
feared that my eoction--by embarrassing
him in his labors and policy-might in
cidcntally do harm to the State. Super
added TO these considerations of Il public
character, deterring lne from appearing as
candidate, there were others of a private
nature no less strong. My affairs, neg
lected for five years, imperatively demand
ed my personal attention. Had | belev-
ed that NY election as Governor could
really benefit the State, or subserve any
of hertruc interests, no sacrifice Of a private
nature, however great, would have deter
red me from accepting that or any other
position to which she might have called
NE ; but regarding my nomination only as
a compliment from some of my former
comrades, | felt at liberty to decline,
though deeply sensible of the honor paid to
me by the nomination, and the manner
in which it was received throughout the
State, These reasons, which | hope you
will understand and appreciate, impelled
ME to withdraw my name. Having given
the reasons for the course l pursued and
expressed my thanks for your generous
confidence in me, | should perhaps here
close. But the evidence you have given
Of your kindness to and confidence in rue
evidence as unexpected as it is crafty
ing--authorizes me, trust without pre-
sumption, to add few words of coun.
sci.
For years past it has been the boast o.
our State that there was but one pprty
within her limits. Commendable and vi.
tai as that state ofaffairs was during the
war, it is scarcely, if at all, less so now
Every association of the paat, every dut,
OF the present, every hope Of the future

A Life Sketch OF Parson Brownlow.

Tennessee, unhappily, as everybody
knows, is ruled by Brownlow, and Brown
low, as is also we'll known, is parson.-
1t is as parson that men are most familiar
with bis name. 1t is as Parson and not
as Governor Brownlow that he generally
chooses to address the public. Whether
he assumes the one character or the other,
he ought, under ordinary circumstances,
to be heard respectfully; but when no
comes before us in the combined capacity
of Governor of Tennessee and Christian
minister, VIC have evory right to expect
that he will speak, if not wisely, at least
decently and soberly. There was time
when Governors were somewhat looked up
to in their respective States, and notwitb-
standing what has occurred within the
last four years, we are disposed to listen
reverently to anything that falls from the
