Leo and Hamntnn

In his speech at the reinion of the sur
vivors of his cavalry corps at Augusta on
Monday WADE HAMPTON SAID that when
General Ike was collecting material for
memoirs Of the war he OEE) intended pub
fishing LEE wrote him for some informa-
ton, and in his letter said that the differ
ences between the sections eliminated in
blood but not in treason" These were
his words" said HAMPTON, land want
every man who followed the southern cross
10 tell his children to the remotest genera
ton that they were neither traitors nor
rebels."
AFTER the war" continued HAMPTON,
"General LEE wrote TO me and said: You
cannot regret "a much as l do that you
were not present at the final struggle; for
had you been present with all your cavalry
the disaster would not have happened
Applause and cheering.l He did not say:
Il think it would not have happened or
Il believe it would not have happened,
but he said, The disaster ,oo1tld not haze hap
penod.' And every member of that corps
should now feel that he has a declaration
worth more to him than the decoration Of
Che Legion of Honor or the Iron Cross Of
Germany"
The sensation of the day was the speech
of General p. NJ. b. YOUNG, who broadly
intimated that had HAMPTON been citizen
of Georgia that State would have treated
him better than the ruling powers in South
Carolina have lately done.
The reGnion was very joyous one and
General HAMPTON was showered with evil
dences of the peoples affection for him.

Clifton BRECKENRIDGE.

Mr.. BREcKINRIDGE, of Arkansas, seems to
be peculiarly unpopular with the Republic
cans Of the North. For years lie has been
o victim of their libels. MoRDEoAI sitting at
The Kings gate was not more hateful TO his
enemies than is CLIFTON BRECKENRIDGE sit
ting in the national House of Representa-
tives 10 the malignant sectionalists whose
daily occupation it is to misrepresent the
people OF the South. The Arkansas
grand jury that found indictments
against certain election officers and others
Is ut the bottom of the present crusade
against the gallant BRECKENRIDGE. But
the vipers are gnawing file, and might
ss we'll let it alone Thanks to the Demo-
cratic majority which the people of the
United States last year ordered to take
possession of the Capitol at Washington,
The prospect of unsesting Mr.. BaEcKIN-
RIDGE and seating his opponent is not
bright. There is no reason to fear that
Mir. BRECKNRTDoE or any other Democrat
who was fairly elected by the people will
be returned 10 his constituents for a
second expression of their wishes in the
premises
But isn't il amazing that the Republican
party should wish to keep up the war be-
tween the States twenty-six years after the
soldiers who fought it 10 successful ter
mination declared at Appomattox Court
house and elsewhere that they asked for
nothing from the South but loyalty to the
Union?

Death of General Long.

The news comes to US late at night OF the
death Of General ARsusrEAD L. LoNG. lie
was man tried in great emergencies and
never found wanting. He was not only
heroic in action, but patient through great
affection and long-sufering.
II Is enough 10 say of his goodness and
capacity that he was chosen by General
LIZ for the most responsible position IN
bis military family. Ike loved him and
trusted him, and in part requital OF this
affection of his old commander, General
Long wrote and published, some years ago,
o military history Of LEE which will al
ways DO regarded as standard authority,
and which IN many respects has no equal
as a contribution of Confederate records
The ranks of the Confederate veterans
are growing thinner and thinner. But
lately we buried JOHNSTON and COOKE; now
the grave Is 10 close over LoNO.
All these were great soldiers; all had the
love of their comrades-in-arms and the re-
wpect of the world. They were grand
types of the valorous men who made our
struggle glorious even in defeat, and who,
though trained from youth to army ser
vice, at the close of the war nobly accom-
modated themselves to civil life and
changed fortunes.

The Two Governors.

II is to be regretted that circumstances
have compelled the postponement of the
visit of the Governors of Maryland and
Virginia TO the oyster waters and grounds
IN which the two States have mutual
interest.
The oyster is disappearing. 1t is even
predicted that the time will come when
"only millionaires will be able 10 buy
them" To prevent the realization of such
o dreadful foreboding. all the good people
of this country should labor.
Radical legislation for the protection and
encouragement of the industry is de-
manded, and particularly Of Virginia and
Maryland. Governor McKISNEY has given
