day. II is dear to every Southern heart
and to-day is male more memorable by tho
presence of veteran who was ono of the
first leaders of tho Southern army, Chief
tain, statesman, patriot, gentleman, no man
stands higher than Wade Hampton.
Col. Charles q. Jones, jr., said of him
master Of horse Of the Army of Northern
Virginia, governor, senator, deliverer OF his
people from the domination Of the ignorant,
the alien, and the free booter, he chsllcnge.
and receives the highest respect, the sincsrest
esteem. most unstinted gratitude, and
warmest admiration"
Wade Hampton is one Of tho pure,t AMI
most striking figures in ihe country to dsy.
He was p-o-emineutly the man who saved
South Carolina from corruption aud misruls.
He WAS the idol Of his people: His word
was law. His honesty and conservatism
won for him and his State the respect Of the
whols nation. II is one Of the greatest COM
mentar;es upon the history Of the Palmetto
State that any body of white men could be
found 10 defeat Hampton for the United
States Senate. 1t was demonstration dis
creditable TO the people aud astounding to
the whole country And yet during tho
struggle for his seat Governor Hampton
made no appeal for support, did not 60 nssr
the State h6uAe in Columbia, and behaved
with .pch high digoity 'tbst he became uader
defeat o more striking figure than in the
Senate Of the United States.
Il would be useless TO say that Wade
Hampton is welcome iu Savannah. He is q
favorite wherever the southern cause had
followers, and wherever tho memory Of the
southern cross is cherished. His wsloo ne
to-day will amount to an ovation n.--Sapdnnah
