of for re-nom ination for the Office of Sec

that be has held the Office, be has given

General Wade Hampton, BY invitation
addressed the Democratic Association
in Baltimore on Thursday night. In
speaking of reasons why son of South
Carolina should make open ackno yledg
ment to the State OF Maryland, he said
l remember when l was a soldier in
the gIorions army Of Northern Virginia,
the sons of Maryland swept across the
borders and again stood side by side
with South Carolina ia a great contest
for liberty. Applsuse. For three
years l commanded a regiment of Mary
lsnders, aud here. on their own soil,
among their acquaintances and friends,
| wish to say that among ell the brave
and true mss Of that immortal army,
none were truer or braver than the SOL
diers OF Whites battalion. Applause. I
Ii belonged to what was cslled the Lau
rel Brigade. and when lis Brigadier Gen
eral { Rosser) expected sharp and deci-
sive work. l always knew it, becasse
Whites battalion was in front. He
used to order Col. White. "if he met the
enemy to ride over him." aud it would
have to be a very strong and very bold
party indeed ttst White would not ride
over. Some Of those gallant men may
be present; if not. l hope my voice may
reach them. that they may know that
their commander prays for their hsppi.
ness and prosperity. As they were brave
and true aud honorable soldiers, they
must now. with that same fidelity they
displayed in time Of war, devote them
selves to the arts and pursuits OF peace !;
they must as then, devote themselves for
the benefit Of their country. 70 upholding
the Constitution. the Union and the
laws. and go to work. as the most effac.
tusl means of 80 doing. for Seymour and
Blair. Applause 1t is scarcely nee
essary for me to give this advice. possi-
bly,. as every man l have met in Mary
land is for Seymour and Blair.
Col. Thomas +. Bowie was called for,
and. in speaking OF the war. said that
it begsn with the purest patriotism. and
though it was not successful. it was to
sustain the Constitution OF the United
States. With the fall of the South fell
the Constitution. and il is now crushed
under foot. The miserable trsitors and
the Radical faction. had
legislated unconstitutionslly ell the time
10 the course Of his remarks he spoke Of
the financial question. and said the bond
holders should bc taxed, "for they g.vs
their money to prosecute the most unbo-
ly war ever known on the earth"

National Republican Ticket.
Neither Forget nor Learn.

It wss said BY some one, Of the Bour-
boss Of France, that they never forgot sry
thing nor learned anything. This is pre-
cissly the case with the Bourbon De-
mocrscy of the United States. They
meet and resolve as their grsndfathers
did; sna living issues Of the day are
pssssd over with contempt. because they
were unknown to their grandfatbers.
Democratic Conventions meet every
four years. and solsmnly rs-sffirm their
devotion to the Constitution. and de-
nounce the opposing party for violating
il. They do not seem to Be aware Of the
fact tbst the Democratic party made a
four years. war to destroy the Constitu-
ton. and that the Republican party
ssved it. They appear to be ignorant
Of the fact that the Southern Democrats
adopted Constitution Of their own, and
that 8 majority Of the Northern Demo
Gratis, including their candidate for Presi-
dent, pronounced it better than the old
Constitution which they profess to love
90, and proposed to settle the trouble by
accepting that rebel Constitution. The
entire lapse Of time since 1860 appears
10 be blank to them, as fsr as their
own acts were concerned but they have
q very vivid recollection of the many vi
olations Of the Constitution by the Repub.
licsn party during that time-which vi
olstions consisted in subjugsting the
rebels and saving the country.
They do not seem to have learned that
Slavery. the main prop of the Democrat
10 party, has ceased to exist. with all it's
rights and privileges but they meet and
resolve for the good and the pleasure Of
the Southern Skveholders, as they did
in the oldeu time.
They remember that the old Constitu.
tion guaranteed to the people the right to
elect President. and they bluster about
their determination to exercise lhst right;
but they do not appear to have learned
that Abraham Lincoln was elected accor.
ding to that Constitutional provision, and
they went into rebellion in consequence
thereof. and patched up a Constitution
which they determined should supersede
the old one. They remember all the old
rights and privileges enjoyed BY Slave
holders, bat have not learned the new
ones acquired by the people.
They will yet have ample opportunity
to learn that Slavery, with all it's accom-
paniments is played ont, and that all
the provisions of the Constitution which
recognized it are abolished that the
rebel States of the South. having been
conquered. are being brought back on q
loyal basis; and that the Democratic party
went down with Slavery, and can never
rise again until it accepts the living is
sues of the day. and places itself on the
platform Of progress, freedom, ond en-.
lightenment.
