THE HAMPTOk-GARY FEUD.
A Letter that General Gary Cannot Afford
to Ignore.
COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. %, 1880

COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. %, 1880.
To the Editor of the AbbeviAe Medium i:
S1R-I have seen to-day, for the first time, a
copy of your paper of date of January 9TH,
containing an interview between your CORES.
pondent "Hampden" and Gen. M. w. Gary,
which is entitled "Gen. Gary again-He
sticks to his statements and gives the evi.
dence." Now his statements are repetitions
of the charges made to New York Herald
correspondent that "Gen. Hampton, in 1876,
advocated the withdrawal of the Tilden and
Hendricks electors, and that he was not true
in his support of their ticket" He goes fur
ther and says that by the rule that silence is
admission, Gen. Hampton stands convicted,
not having denied his second repetition of the
charge.
Now, a newspaper interview is always an un-
satisfactory matter to deal with, as General
Gary may repudiate, explain away or evade,
in any other way, such part of Hampden's in-
terview as he pleases; but even with that
difficulty in my way, hope l can make my
points clear.
1st. AS to Gen. Gary's claim, as represent
ed by the interviewer, that Gen. Hampton by
his silence has admitted the charge, l would
say that Gen. Hampton pronounced his
charge to be "utterly and absolutely false,
and that his answer applies as we'll to the sec.
ond third and every other repetition as it did
to the original. But that there may be no
question, l will say that, if Gen. Gary will,
over his own signature, repeat what he has
said in the published interview, or simply say
that it is true, namely, "that Governor Hamp-
ton advocated the withdrawal of the Tilden
and Hendricks electors, | will, by the very
gentlemen whose names he gives as his wit
nesses, prove his statement false. will use
no other testimony. Out of the mouth of
his own witnesses will convict him of false,
hood
1 will 90 further. I will undertake to
prove that Gen. Gary did the very thing with
which he has falsely charged Gen. Hampton.
That when Settle and Denny, emissaries of
President Grant, offered if Gen. Hampton's
party would agree to admit that the State
had gone for Hayes and Wheeler, the Hamp-
ton Government should be recognized, Gen.
Hampton refused the offer while Gen. Gary
urged that it should be accepted.
Gen. Gary has. in the interview, further
stated that Gen. Hampton sent Judge Mack.

THINK MINUTE, F1RsT.-Appropos Of
the sayings of the little ones, I am reminded
of an incident which touched me very much
at the time, and may find responsive chord
in the hearts of some that are parents. was
sitting on my porch on pleasant summer
morning, when up runs little Belle, intent
on visit to little playmate across the way.
"Papa," she asks, "may l go over and play
with Carrie awhile?" and then, as if she seem.
ed to discern dissent in my face, she put
her little rosebud lips close to mine and quick.
ly added, "Please don't say no think min.
ute FIRST" Was there ever more charming
protest against hasty and inconsiderate an.
swer? Of course, the little girl had her
wish. We are perhaps all too ready thought
lessly to deny many Of the little ones-things'
that seem triaing to us, but are every thing to
them. And when their little appeals come,
before letting the "no" rise too quickly to our
lips, let us think minute.

A GooD JoKE.-A few days ago wealthy
gentleman of Cleveland perpetrated a good
joke on his nephew, young man named
Lockwood, employed in the office of Division
Superintendent Woodford, of the Canada
Southern road, and located at Toledo. The
young man received telegram from the un-
Gle telling him to come to Cleveland at once,
but offering no explanation. The young man
responded. The uncle, looking stern and an.
cry, met him at the dept and said to him,
"Come to my office at once" The young
man trembled in his boots and wondering
what he had done to anger his relative, fol-
lowed. At the Office the uncle handed
him document and in fierce tone of voice
said, "Read that" 1t was deed conveying
house and lot in one of the most pleasant
portions of the city to- the astonished nephew.
Then the old uncle sat down and laughed
until his sides ached. 1t was a good Joke and
cost the perpetrator $4,000.

A KISSING CLERGYMAN.-Rev. John H.
Lane, a Methodist clergyman of Kensico, N.
Y, was tried last week by jury of brother
clergymen, on charge of improper conduct
towards various female members of his flock.
The testimony was strong as to his acts, sew
eral ladies testifying that it required physical
force to resist his insulting attentions. He
admitted kissing number of ladies, but
claimed that his motives were pure. He was
found guilty of being "imprudent," but the
jury decided the charge of Immoral conduct
was not sustained"

ABOUT BoYs-"It is understood, in the
first place, that boy is to do all errands, 60
to the store, to the post office, and to carry all
sorts of messages If he had as many legs
as centipede, they would tire before night.
His two short limbs seem entirely inadequate
to the task. He would like to have as many
legs as wheel has spokes, and rotate bout
in the same way. This he sometimes tries to
do; and people who have seen him turning
cart-whees' along the side of the road, have
supposed that he was amusing himself, and
idling his time; he was only trying to invent
a new mode of locomotion, so that he could
economize his legs, and do his errands with
greater dispatch. He practices himself stand
ing on his head in order to accustom himself
to any position. Leap-frog is one of his meth
DDS Of getting over the ground quickly. He
would willingly go any distance if he could
leapfrog it with few other boys. He has q
natural genius for combining pleasure with
business. No other living thing can 60 as
slow as boy sent on an errand. His legs
seem to be lead, unless he happens to espy
wood chuck in an adjoining lot, when he
gives chase to it like deer and 1t is a Gu
rious fact about boys, that two will be great
deal slower about doing anything than one,
and the more you have to help them the less
is accomplished. Boys have great power Of
helping each other to do nothing; and thef
are so innocent about it, and unconscious. 4
went as quick as ever could says the boy.
His father asks him why he didn't stay all
night, when he has been absent three hours on
ten minutes errand. This sarcasm has no
effect on the boy.
"Now every boy wants to go to sea. Of
course. Why not? Ibelieve in that boy who
is ambitious to gaze upon other countries.
But boys are always in hurry. They think
it would pay to ship as common sailors or 60
before the mast. 1 don't agree with those
boys; and am sure, too, that every boy-sail-
or would tell his friends at home to stay there
until some better opportunity came to see for
eign lands"

A Few PREffY THouGHTs-What is
crime? A wretched yagabond, travelling
from place to place in fruitless attempts to es-
cape Justice, who is constantly engaged in hot
pursuit foe to virtue and happiness, though
at times the companion of poor innocence,
which is too often made to suffer for the
guilty.
What is tbought2 A fountain from which
flows all good and evil. intentions ; mental
fluid, electrical in the force and rapidity Of
its movements, silently flowing unseen within
its own secret avenue; yet it is the controlling
power Of all animal matter, and the chief
handspring of all our actions.
What is happiness? A butterfly that roves
from flower to flower, in the vast garden of
existence, and which is eagerly pursued by
the multitude in the vain hope of obtaining
the prize; yet it continually eludes their
grasp.
What is fashion? A beautiful envelop
for mortality, presenting glittering and pol
ished exterior, the appearance Of which gives
no certain indication of the real value Of what
is contained within.
What is wit? A sparkling beverage that
is highly exhilarating and agreeable when
partaken at the expense Of others, but when
used at your own cost it becomes bitter and
unpleasant.
What is knowledge? A key that unravels
all mysteries, which unlocks the entrance,
and discovers new, unseen, and untrodden
paths in the hitherto uuexplored fields Of
science and literature.
What is fear? A frightful substance to
the really guilty, but vain and harmless
shadow to the conscientious, honest and up

What is joy? The honey of existence,
really beneficial and agreeable when partaken

used in excess.-Hebrew Leader.

skeer 'em, he did, He had character and
emotions. Having no tail to wag (for he was
not curtailed) he did the best he could and
wagged where it ought to be. Bows was
dark brindle. He was dog of ancestors.
His fathers name was Shylock, and his grand
fathers name was Sheriff. They were all hon
orable dogs. never knew him to run up
and down nabor's palings after the dog on
the other side. He was above it-but he
never lodged responsibility. He has come
in violent personal contact with other dogs a
thousand times, more or less, and was never
the bottom dog in the fight. And, then what
an honest voice he had. His bark was not
on the c, but was deep, short basso pro.
