CoMNEyT1NG upon the interview in

COMMENTING upon the interview in
which Gov Seymour declined to say,
that he would not accept Presidential
nomination, the Boston Herald, iber-
al Republican journal, says:
Hon, Horatio Seymour of New York
speaks a tone which indicates that, if the
Presidential nomination were actually ten.
dered to him, he would reluctantly accept.
We should be glad to see so able, honest and
pure candidate as he is, the Democratic
standard bearer.
That would be the judgment of the
conservative masses everywhere. He
is cable. honest and pure, and if nomi-
mated, he will be elected.

DEATH OF Maj. WADE HAMPTON,
JR-This melancholy event occurred in
Washington county ON the 23d. At
the time of his death, he was a Repre-
sentative Of his county in the State Leg
islature. He was born in South Caro-
lima in 1910, and was the son Of the dis
tinguished gentleman whose name he
bore. IN the war he rendered dis
tinguished service as a staff officer, and
when the struggle was over, he settled
down to planting at the place where he
died. A few months ago he married
the daughter of the late James PhelaR,
formerly of this State, but a citizen OF
Memphis at the time of his death. Maj.
Hampton was most estimable gentle
man, excellent and unexceptionable in
all the relations of life. The State
could not afford the loss of such a son
at such a time. His distinguished
father when informed of his serious i'll
ness, FASTENED to his bedside, but
the vital spark was extinguished ere he
reached him. His remains have been
carried to South Carolina for interment.
SENATOR BUTLER, of South Carolina,
proposea to deprive the Treasury notes
of their legal tender quality in 1858.
He wants the country to work up to the
point, so as to avoid confusion and
arrangement of values Why not wait
until 1859, and decide what is best from
the lights then before the country
Sufficient unto the day is the evil there
of. a truce to financial agitation. Let
the gfeeabacks remain with their legal
tender functions undisturbed-plae
silver on an equal footing with gold
where the trainers of our Constitution
established it-and then let well enough
alone
