The Secretary of war ON the Ba1lOch

In view OF the attempts made by the
Freeedmen's Bureau officials to whitewash
Gen. Balloch's late financial transgressions,
it may be well TO state that the Secretary of
War is Of the opinion that under the exist
ing laws, Gen. Balloch is guilty of felony.
The secretary says if his department had
charge of the case Gen, Balloch would
long ago have been turned over to the
bureau Of justice. Balloch's case is now
in the hahdS of the Treasury officials, and
there is no prospect that the delinquent will
ever be dealt with except to have report
palliating his offense. #M

WADE HAMPTON.

Gen. Wade Hampton, in letter
addressed to the editor Of 6i,e Southern
Home, expresses the opinion that the
South should not take part In the
next National Democratic conven-
ton for the following reasons;
First--Southern delegates to the
National convention could exercise
no influence In shaping the policy OF
making up the issues, or in selecting
the candidates for the next contest,
without seriously injuring the pros
poets of a Democratic triumph; that
this would inevitably be the case, l.
proven by the result of the last Dem
ocratic convention, where the very
presence of Southerners was used to
prejudice the action aud defeat the
candidates OF the party.
2. III Southern delegates could not,
with propriety, exert any influence IN
the convention, which their mere at
tendance in 1t might result In infinite
mischief to the Democratic party, II
is surely the part of wisdom 10 refrain
from participating in the deliberations
of the convention.
3. The Northern Democrats will
have to bear the burtben of the fight
in the next Presidential contest, and
1t Is only right that they should
choose the field and select the stand.

has he dissolved his connection with

the villainy, has he cut loose from

that Democrats can rely upon, he
must show the sincerity of his con-

needed, that he can be relied upon as
democratic authority. II he is not
