Senator Hampton's Position.

Senator Hampton has arrived in Colum-
bia, and has authorized tho following
statement of his political position to be
made public:
"Senator Hampton, who came to the
city to-day for tho first time since his re-
turn from Washington, was asked his
opinion on tho political situation in the
State, and said that ho had written n pcr-
sonal letter to Col. Irby some days ago
saying that no would give his views in a
lottor for publication. IIc said further
that ho would support tho ticket nomi-
mated by tho September Convention, but
that ho would not speak ut the meetings
advertised to be hold here or in Charles
ton, rs, in his judgment, these would
only prolong the existing excitement,
intcnsifying tho bitter feeling now unfor-
tunately prevailing and tend to widen
the breach in tho Democratic party. In
n few days lie will address n letter to
Col. Irby giving his views moro fully"

The People Have Their Eyes Open.

Senators Hampton and Butler have re-
turned to tho State. Both these gentle,
men say thoy will vote for tho regular
Democratic ticket. Mr.. Butler says he
will canvass and mako speeches for tho
success of tho Democracy, but advises
against 1t. Senator Hampton refuses to
take tho stump for tho Democrats.
Practically both these gentlemen slap the
State Democratic Executive Committee
in the face, and gay we know better
than you do. This is humiliating.
Senators Hampton and Butler hold
their high positions ut tho pleasure of
the Democratic party of tho State, and
it comes in bad grace from them to turn
their backs on thoir party friends. They
have no words of consure for their ner-
sonal friends who are boiling, and seem
to DO enjoying tho present pcrilous situa-
ton Of affairs. The people have their
eyes open!

An orderly and p~saceable election Is

not now stop in rs a voluntary umpire

keep out Of this fight for his own, pro.

It is not tho negro's desire nor ambi-

Buffers Head Is Level.

EDGEEIELD G. H., October TO-
Senator M. G. Butler has been spend
ing some time on his estate, Wood,
lawn, recuperating from the arduous
labors of the recent r]rotractca Con
gressional session. Senator Buffers
official p> sition entities his opinion
weight, and his we'll known GOODNESS,
courage and sound Judgment in an
emergency, whether on the field of
battle or in the political forum, make
it specially important that the pco-
pie of the State should be informed
of his views and intentions in the
present crisis. These considerations
prompted nc to seek an interview
with Gen. Butler in order that
through tho columns of the Nc,us
and Courier he might reach the
widest possible hearing among his
constituents. The interview did not
.disappoint my expectations, and as
will be secn the distinguished states
man displayed all his usual GOODNESS
and sagacity.
STANDING by THE PARTY.
| began by stating that the Wevs
and Courier would be glad to have
a statement from him rs to ssYhat
would DO his course in the approach
ing State election, and which ticket
he would support. TO this Gen.
Butler replied:
81 supposed that my position would
be sufficiently well understood to
make this question unnecessary, but
| will state it without reservation, if
you desire it. The Democratic Con
vcntion met in Columbia OF, tho 10th
of September last to nominate State
officers. 1t was convened in pursu-
ance of call, regularly made by
tho properly constituted authorities
of tho Democratic party, totwit, its
Executive Committee. A thorough
canvass Of the State hid been made
by tho candidates, and the Convcn-
ton by n very large majority put a
ticket III Tie field. / shall support
that ticket. Whether it is q bad or
