The Late James III. Hammond.

One of the ablest men whom this
country has ever produced, passed from
the stage of action when the Hon. Jas.
II. Hammond, of South Carolina, died.
With an intellect at once brilliant and
powerful, thoroughly educated, and a
most winning orator, he was all honor
to his native land.
A speech which this gentleman deliv-
cred in the Senate of the United States,
on the Lecompton Constitution, in
March, 1858, lately came under our no
tice. From it we extract the conclud-
ing paragraph, which reads as follows
"You complain of the rule of the
South ; that has been another cause that
has preserved you. We have kept the
Government conservative to the great
purposes of Government. We have
placed it, and kept it, upon the Consti-
tuition and that has been the cause of
your peace and prosperity. The Scna-
tor from New York (Mr. Seward) says
that that is about to be at an end; that
you intend to take the Government from
us that it will pass from our hands,
Perhaps what he says is true; it may be
but do not forget-it can never be for
gotten-it is written on the brightest
page of human history-that we, the
Shareholders of the South, took our
country in her infancy, and, after ruling
her for sixty out of the seventy years
of her existence, we shall surrender
her to you without q stain upon her
honor, boundless in prosperity, incalcu-
liable in her strength, the wonder and
the admiration of the world. Time
will show what you will make of her ;
but no time can ever diminish our glory
or your responsibility

"a House of Your own"

Next to being married to the right
person, there is nothing so important
in ones life as to live under ones own
roof.
There is something more than po-
ctical charm in the expressions of the
wife: awe have our cozy home; it is
thrice dear to us, because 1t is our own.
We have bought it with the savings OF
our earnings. Many were the soda
fountains, the confectionery saloons
and the niceties of the market we had
to pass many times my noble husband
denied himself the comfort of tobacco
the refreshing draught of beer; wore
his old clothes and even patched ur
boots and 1, O p! me, made my old bon
net do, wore the plainest clothes ant
did the plainest cooking; Saving wa'
the order of the hour and to have q
house of our own has been our united
aim.
"Now we have it there is no 1and.
lord troubling us with raising the rent
and cxacting this and that There is nc
fear harboring in our bosom that in
sickness or old age we will be thrown
out of house and home, for it is Oul
own, and the money we have saved to
pay rent is sufficient to keep us in com.
fort in the winter days of life"
What lesson does the above words
teach, and how well would it be if hun.
drcds of families would heed them, and
instead of living in rented houses
which takes Il large share of their CAPT.
tai to furnish, and quarter of thcil
earnings to pay the rent, dress and cal
correspondingly, would bravcly curtai
their expenses and concentrate theil
efforts ofhavinga "house of their own
Better cottage of your own than q
rented palace.

The Nominations.

The Louisville Journal in speaking of the
nominations, says ''The Convention clos
ed with a revival. II was regular camp
meeting affair. The impromptu uo:nina-
ton of Horatio Seymour, and the almost
equally spontaneous uprising for young
Frank Blair will thrill the Democratic
heart Of the land and already gives it an
earnest of victory. No matter what our
preferences may have been, they are dis
solved in this most auspicious flood of light
and hope. No matter whom we were for
yesterday. we are now FOR Seymour and
Blair. They revive in memories OF days
when freedom was freedom when law was
law when the Union was blessing and a
JOY, and the flag something other than
drop curtain hung up before the eyes Of a
credulous section in order to conceal acts
of usurpation, oppression, and wrong. All
over this broad and fair republic to-day gar
lands Of peace are twining hopes are
Frightening hearts are growing bold again.
We have now an organization. We have
PLATFORM We have leaders. No more
bringing to the cowardly prosecutor. No
more efforts to couciliate brutal herd Of
plundering bondholders and place holders.
1t is now square fight and fair fight be-
fore the people and the ballot-tox for f.
nal settlement of the pact and final adjust
ment of the future. We look back with
sorrow we look forward with hope. Let
every man do his duty. Let every man
stand to his post. The night is over, thank,
God. The Convention has settled that
1t has reunited tie broken ranks Of Democ-
racy for the sake OF the Union. The eagle,
wounded by a shaft tipped with one Of its
own feathers, scars aloft once more strong
and buoyant The old bird has nothing
more to fear.

Is it Possible 2

The Press and Tipsss Of the 10Th inst,
dare make the following admission:
intellectually, Seymour is the first man
of his party. He has cold-booded ability
and political culture Of a very high order.
We have no doubt At present that Grant
will beat this new rival. The nomination
OF Seymour, however, puts the vote ofNew
York in doubt, for there be has updoubled
power, not only with the masses. but with
the banks and capitalists, wao will work
like beavers to secure his nomination."

BLAIR
he Accepts the Nomination for the Vice
Presidency.

The following is the speech made by
General Blair on the fo:h, accepting the
nomination for Vice President
"In reply to Gen. Morgan, accept the
platform of resolutions passed by the late
Democratic Convention and I accept their
domination with feelings of most profound
gratitude, and sir, / thank you for the very
kind manner in which you have conveyed
to me the decision of the Convention. ac-
cept the nomination with the feeling that
the nomination for the Presidency is one
which will carry US to certain victory, Zap
plause and because l believe that nomina-
ton is the most appropriate that could be
made by the Democratic Convention.
The contest which we wage is for the
restoration of Sustitutional government,
[cheers. and it is appropriate that we
should make this contest under the lead
one who has given his life to the mainte-
| nance Of the constitutional govern ment.-
| [Cheers.l
He made this contest for the restoration
of principles of government which belong
to our race, and, my fellow citizens, it is
most proper we should select our leader,
not from the military, but one who has de-
voted himself to civil pursuits, and who
has given himselfto the study of the under
standing of our Constitution and its main
tenanee- with all the force of reason and Of
judgment. .a -e -a-
|
My fellow citizens, have said this con
test before US was one for the restoration
of our Government. Itis also for the res
toratiOn Of our race. Loud cheers.l It's tc
prevent the people of one race being exclu
+ ded from their homes and exiled from the
| Government which they formed and crea
| ted for themselves, and for their children
and to prevent them being driven out in ex-
lie or trodden under the feet of semi-bar
barous race. [APplause.l In this contest
we shall have the sympathy of every man
who is worthy of belonging TO the white
race. What civilized people on eartE
would refuse to associate with themselves
in all the rights and hOnors and dignity o
their country, such men as Lee and John.

What civilized country would fail to Dc
them honor? While fighting for an erro
Eeous cause they distinguished themselves
by gallantry never surpassed. Applause.
In that contest they are sought to badis-
franchised and exiled from their homes
In that contest they proved themselves t.
be our peers. t
My fellow-citizens, it is not my puFpos
to make heightened address, but simply
to express my gratitude for the distinguish

me, and from my heart Ireiterate the word
of thanks that came from my lips when

head ofour state smen. He commands my
entire confidence. I would rather trust
him than myself with the delicate duties
| of the next four years. You know ] am

can rely on me and my friends. I have a
natural pride, an honest pride in the good
will of my countrymen. but you know bet
ter than any one else it is neither egotistj-
cal nor Over-rufng; that am ready and
anxious to give up the norlination to any
sbodY who can get one single vote more than
