GOV. HAMPTON'S FAREWELL.
HE RESIGNS AS GOTERNOR AND. rs
COAMISSIONED SENATOR.


Governor Simpson Quietly Inaugurat-
ed--Hampton's Letter OF Resigna-
ton. He Explains Why He Did Not
Resign Before- Allusions to His
Feeble Health--Thanks for the Past
and Hopes for the Future.
Governor Hampton's letter of
resignation was received last We'd
nesday and he WIS duly commits
stoned rs United States Senator,
and his certificate of election for
warded to Senator Butler for pre-
sentation.
Governor Simpson qualified rs
Governor before Chief Justice
Willard, the ceremony qeing quietly
performed iii the attorney-general's 8
Office, and has issued his proclama .
tion, in which he announces that in
consequence of a letter of reslgna-
tion received from Governor Hamp-
ton, he has taken the oath of Office
as Governor and entered upon the
duties of tho offico.
Governor Hampton's letter is as
follows:
OAKLAND, S. c., Feb. "a, 1879.
My Deur Sir: In rendering, as T
now do, my resignation as Governor
of South Carolina, it is proper that
I should give the nelson's whit h
have caused me to postpone doing so
until the present time. When the
General Assembly did me the honor
to elect ME United States Senator
there were some official acts which,
it was supposed, could be properly
discharged only by myself. I pro
posed, therefore, to resume Exccu-
tive authority for q few days to
perform those duties, but my health
has never permitted me to do so,
and the recent decision of the
Supreme Court renders it unneces..
sary for me to take any action in this
matter. 1 can therefore now resign
without any preu lice to the State
or any embarrassment to myself,
and in doing 80 I feel that [ commit
the Executive authority to ono in
every way worthy and competent to
WELD it.
It will always be u source of
pride and qualification to me to
recall my official connection with
the o.her officers of the State. We
have been in perfect accord on oil
the great public questions which
have agitated the State, and our
personal relations have been those
Of the closest friendship. In sewers
ing my connection with them
officially, I beg to express my great
obligations to them, and my earnest
wishes for their prosperity and
success.
To the people of South Carolina,
who have done me such undeserved
honor in the past, who have sus-
tanned me with such unfalterirg
confidence, and who have manifest
cd towards me, during my late
illness, an affection never surpassed,
I have no words by which adequate-
ly to express my gratitude. I can
only promise to devote whatever of
life and ability God may grant me
to their service, oaly asking them
to remember that I never solicited
Office at their hands, and if I fail in
the new sphere to which they have
elevated me, it will be my misfor-
tune but not my fault. They have
placed me there, and it shall be my
earnest effort to prove myself
worthy of their confidence. Thank
ing them profoundly . for their
kindness TO me and invoking on
them the hoicest blessings of God,
I am, with great respect, very
truly yours, WADE HAMPTON.
His Excellency, GOVERNOR S1Mp-
SON.
