- On the 10Th ultimo, the Legislature
elected Governor w. D. Simpson to the office
of Chief Justice, in place of Associate.Justice
McIver, who declined to accept the place
There was no other candidate, and he conse
quently received the unanimous vote of the

Death of Maj. Wade Hampton, Jr.
Maj. Wade Hampton, Jr., died at his
home in Washington county, Mississippi, on
the 23d ultimo. He was the eldest son oi
Senator Hampton by his FIRST wife, Miss Pres
ton. He was born near Columbia, and was
brought up under the personal care of his
father. The outbreak of the last war found
him at the South Carolina University just on
the eve of graduating. Like most Of the
young men of that day, he was eager to obey
the call to arms, and at once volunteered
with the Congaree Troop, cavalry company
raised by Capt. M. G. Butler, and subsequent
ly attached to the Hampton Legion. He
went with the Legion to Virginia and served
for time on the staff Of Gen. Hampton, his
father. He was soon, however, ordered to
report to Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, upon
whose staff he served throughout the entire
war, occasionally serving with his father
when not on active duty. Major Hampton
was in all the principal engagements around
Richmond, and when Gen. Johnston was as
signed to the West, followed him there and
remained with him until the surrender. He
was wounded at the Battle Of Burgess Mill,
on the 2Sth of October, 1864, while bending
over the body of his brother Preston, who was
killed in that battle. After the war Maj.
Hampton settled in Mississippi and devoted
himself to agricultural pursuits. He was,
however, elected member of the State Leg
islature.
