CHARLESTON, 5. c., July 13.-The News and
Courier publishes long better from General
Wade Hampton correcting errors in the re-
cent articles of Generals johnson and
Imboden, touching the first battle of
Manassas or Bull Run. General Hampton
shows that the Hampton Legion, 600 strong,
which he commanded, arrested the victori-
Gus columns of Sherman and KeyeS, who
were driving the Confederate forces back,
and that the legion so delayed the Federal
advance as to enable Confederate reinforce
ment to be brought up. The News and
Courier gives an elaborate review of the bat
tie, the history of which it claims must now
be rewritten. Its conclusion is that Hamp-
ton was to Jackson at Manassas what Jack
son was to the whole Confederate left.
Hampton saved Stonewall Jackson as Jack
son saved the army. 1t was the magnificent
fighting of the legion under terrible odds
that gave Jackson timeto bring his troops to
position. Had he not had the opportunity
to form the Virginians who afterward stood
like stone wall, the battle would have been
irretrievably lost. The opportunity to form
those Virginians was given to Jackson by
Hampton and his men, and was given by
them alone.

YALE AND MR.. HENDRICKS.

A few days ago we noted quite an amount
of rot running through the Republican pa
perS to the effect that a slight had been
placed upon the Vice President b. Yale Col
lege; that he was expecting the degree of
Doctor of Laws, and, not getting it, had
slipped out of New Haven on the first train
that gave him opportunity, although it
fitted by at the very unseemly hour of in
the morning We concluded to investigate
the matter privately, and to this end en-
closed two newspaper extracts to the Presi
dent of Yale College asking him if there was
any foundation for the matter contained
therein. The frs: extract was an editorial
in the indianapolis Journal, and reads as fol-
lows:
"'Vice President Thomas A Hendricks,
LII. D., is the way it would have sounded if
only the Trustees OF Yale had not given the
coveted title to another man. Like the
modest man who never told his love, how
ever Mr.. Hendricks has never whispered his
disappointment, unless it might be that he
uttered regretful Episcopalian expletive to
the sad sea wave off the New Jersey shore"
The other extract was New York special
cut from some other paper, but copied into
the Journal, and we think appeared in the
same issue of the paper that contained the
editorial which seems to have been inspired
by the special" 1t reads as follows:
New York Special
The Times in its column of ''Hit and Miss"
chat, says to-day Though the newspapers
have not touched upon the subject, have it
on good authority that Vice President Hen
bricks has just suffered pretty keen disap-
pointment not to say embarrassment. When
ho tod 20 Aho Cd
before the Yale Law School it was not un-
natural that he should see something more in
the invitation than the mere glory of an OPP
portunity to discourse learnedly before lit
tie band of students. Two years ago Secre-
tary Bayard went up to Yale from Delaware,
delivered this same address and was hon
| ored with the title Ii. ID. Last year
Governor HOadley journeyed there
from Ohio. took the law school
platform, as Mr. Bayard had done, and in
the same way accepted the LII. ID. The rule
stared Mr.. Hendricks in the face. He had
| no reason to doubt that the honor was await
ing him. Indeed, it's said by one in a'pOsition
to know, that it was pretty directly init
| mated to the Indiana statesman that his hon.
| orary degree waited only for his acceptance.
| But Mr.. Hendricks discovered soon after his
| arrival in the college town that his expecta-
| tions had blossomed in vain. Yale's corpo-
| ration, for reasons best known within the
| inner circle, had selected others for her hon.
ors. The rule which had given dignity to
| Bayard and Hoadly, and Others was broken.
| 1t is not recorded that Mr. Hendricks used
language that was animated over.the matter,
but gentleman who knows the fact says
| that the Vice President did not seem TO con-
slider it an infection to stay up till L o'clock
in the morning in order to get an out-ot-town
train that would hurry him to Boston.
Yesterday we received the following reply
from Yale College:

In other words, there was no precedent of

his Grafton was made before his arrival here.

THE CHANGE IN POSTAL RATES

A letter weighing not over an ounce goes
now through the United States mails for two
cents, and it is already being agtated that in
the near future the postage will soon be re-
duced to one cent for letters weighing not
over one ounce. There has quite a reyolu-
ton been effected within a half century.
Fifty years ago it cost six cents to send
single-sheet letter any distance less than
thirty miles. Between thirty and eighty
miles the rate was ten cents; between eighty
and $50 twelve and one-half cents; between
80 and 400, eighteen and one-half cents; and
over 400, twenty-five cents For two sheets
double price was charged. In 1915 the unit
of weight was fixed a. half an ounce and the
rate for any distance under 800 miles was
fixed at five cents Above that distance the
rate was ten cents. Six years later the rate
was reduced to three cents, for which letters
could be sent anywhere under 5000 miles.
In 1868 three cents was made the uniform
rate throughout the Union; and in 1881 the
rate was reduced to two cents. Every one of
these reductions has been productive of an
increase in revenue; and il is not likely that
the reduction just effected will prove any ex-
ceptiOn to the rule.
