We publish below the letter of Gen.
ade Hampton to Gen 1). H. Hill, in
to one written by the lntter, mk
the opinion of Gen. llnmj'tort he
to the course proper to be pnrrfuefl by
the Southern Democracy in V*. sere nee
to the next National Democratic Con
vention. We call attention to the
letter, as embodying the opinion of one
of the ablest Southern men, whose he
roic conduct, and ability during the
lato war, and whose well-cotablifthed
character as a Statesman, not only en
title him to the admiratiod of his
country-men, but whose suggestions
demaud their careful consideration.
From iiis retirement to which he has
confined himself since the war, he now
unostentatiously, at the request of one
of his confreres m amis, gives to the
powplc of t *e South his opinion, with
no other view thuu to promote their
interests by the course which he ad
vises iu the coming Democratic Con
vention; and we have no doubt that
it will receive, as it deserves, the re
spectful consideration of the whole
party South. In his reply, he assumes
the ground, in the first place, that
Southern Delegates, if sent to the
Convention, could take no active part
iu shaping the course, or moulding the
Platform of the party, without seri
ously injuring the prospects of the
campaign, and might, as in the last
Presidential contest, cause the defeat
of the party for that very reason.
In the next place, he insists, that if
this be true, that any such participa
tion in the proceedings of the Conven
tion might prove fatal to the party,
then wisdom suggests the propriety of
refraining altogether from any partici
pation in the deliberations of the. Con
vention, at all. Aud lastly, he declares,
that forasmuch as the Northern De
mocracy will have to bear the burden
of the fight, and with them will rest,
at last the toil of the conflict, aud t'u e
ultimate glory of a successful result*
that it is only right that they should
choose the field and the standard
bearers, only asking at their hands,
that they give us a good platform, and
as acceptable candidates as they can,
aud pledging iu return, all ibe aid we
cau give.
policy which the Southern Democracy
can pursue. We believe the whole
people of the South are a unit against
the lta lieu! Administration, however
they may differ in some, at present,
unfortunate respects ns to policies to
be pursued, and the Platform to be
enunciated, and that it is only nqcessa-!
ry to place before them some well de
fined course of act ion which holds out
the prospect of success, and that to a
man, they would cheerfully come up
to the rescue. Moreover, we believe,
that by pursuing the views put forth
by Gen. Hampton’s letter, this end
can be more readily Accomplished than
inany other, indeed, that is the only way
iu which it can be done, and we, there
fore, repeat, that it addresses itself
most favorably to the thoughtful con
sideration of the party at large. For
ourselves, we are rot careful whether
a Platfprm of I'rin Spies be declared or
npt, and would be conteut, and per
baps it would be best, if the ’.party
should array itself in the fight before
the people, against the nftaf-Adminis
trations and. manifest corruptions of
tbe Administration, without any for
c'd declaration of principles. No
man, Radical or Democrat, needs now
to bo taught what is Democratic faith,
and wfiaf are Democratic principles;
these are known and rend of all meu;
* aad therefore, upon ißsms which the
Administration bus made before the
qonntry; its profligacy, its incompoten
cy, its regfirdless conduct of the inter
ests of the Commonwealth, the pecu
lation of its leaders and employees, its
trampling upon the Constitution, and
the well established faith of the Fath
ers of the Republic, aid a thousand
other things that might be mentioned,
and which can be wielded with pow
erful and disastrous effect oil the
hustings and by the press, the Demo
cratic party should go before the
country. Here, in the name of all
that is dear to a people, issues enough
can be found, while such a course
would have, too, the happy effect of
putting at rest, forever and a day, the
Unfortunate bickerings and strife, and
wai-fate among ourselves which do no
good to us, but benefit our adversa
« • And just here, we venture to hope,
ibat sueb a course would prove accep
table, and may meet with the views of
Mr. Stephens, and those who agree
with him in their opposition to what is j
termed the “New paparture.” They
seetanto believe that the large body of
the Democracy are with them iu this j
opposition, while on the other hand, it
is warmly asserted that he and Ins ad
herents are in the minority. Vt hy not
then, adjourn for the present, these
causes of difference, and by putting
all these vexed and injurious questions
in abeyance, go into this contest witli
our united armour on, under the lead
of the Nor. hern Democracy, assailing
at all points, the extravagancies ano
corruptions of a party which has weh
nigh mini .i the country, making these
th- j i n.meiit grjnuds of the Demo
ci*.t/e Tattle ? We have no time and
no heart to fight each other; let ah
our weapons he hurled with a common
strc-i gth against a common foe, and
whin the battle is fought, and the vic
tory won, tht n, and not till then, can
we repair t Lit? breaches, and stop the
leaks which have been made in the
ship of Slat*. But to the letter:
General Wade I-Vailijpton «« the
Situation.
The following letter, addressed by
General Hampton, to the editor of the
Southern Home, is published in that ■>
paper in its issue of the 19th :
Cox.im.DiA, September 9, 1871.
My Dear Sir: Tue Southern Homf
of liic olh instant, containing your
editori 1 on the policy to be pursued
by liu S 'uthein Slates iu reference to
me next National Democratic Conven
tion, reached me a day or two ago,
and along with it the letter in which
3 ou were ki;.d enough to ask my opin
ion on this question. Though 1 oan-
IX t li.tu r myself that any opinions'l
may i ntertain can have the weight
your partiality would induce you to
attach to them, I most cheerfully com
ply with the request contained iu your
letter, because it is only by consulta
tion and discussion among ourselves
that we cau hope to act judiciously
and harmoniously.
It would perhaps be sufficient to say
that I concur fully in the views you
have expressed, ns to the impropriety
oi the South tukrng any part iu the
approaching Convention; but, iu du
feieAcu to your wishes, I gi\e briefly
the rear ons which have induced ibis
con action iu my uiincl.
Ist. Tue Southern Delegates in a
National Convention could exercise
no influence in shaping the policy, ma
king up the issues, or selecting the
cunoKtuieo for the next contest, with
out saiou .ly injuryiug the prospect of
a Democratic triumph. That this
would inevitably be the case, is proven
by lb- result of the last Democratic
Convention, where the very presence
of Southerners was used to prejudice
the action and to defeat the eaueli
dales ol our party.
2d. if tue .Southern Delegates could
not with propriety exert any influence
in the C .mention, wnilo their mere
attendance in it might resuit in infinite
iioiii paiticipating in the deliberations
of the Convention.
hd. The Nor.hern Democracy will
have to bear the burthen of the fight
in themext Frtsldeniial contest, and it
is only right that they should choose
the field and select the staudard-bear
- rs.
'J. ' .sc, in brn f, are the reasons, in
uo"junction with those you have al
ma,tty so ably advanced, that have con
aneed, me that our true policy is to
abstain alfogethei from ail participa
tion in the next National Democratic
Convention. Oi course 1 , iu pursuing
this policy, wo should take, care to
have our conduct and motives fully
understood by our Northern friends.
We should say to them, that we pie
-actuated s le y by the desire, to p o
mote the success of Dc mocratic princi
ples and Democratic candid..tes; that
wt wi.-h to leave them iite to act, and
iho best interests of our party de
mand; pn cl that we pledge,them in the
con test Tail the aid we can give, only
asking them to give us a good plat
form/and as acceptable candidates, as
they can.
When the platform is announced,
and the candidates solectecl, the De
mocracy of the bomb can ratify the
action of the National Convention,
and lhey can use every effort to secure
the success of the party; for on its suc
cess depends the existence of the Bofftb*
(Tti States.
If our people concur in this policy,
aiT.oigquienlH Should be made iu each
State 16 carry it out fully aud effe-ctu
afly. Should they not concur, we
must, fn ahv event, act in perfect ac
cord and Yvhth entire harmony.
Too much is at stake for us to differ
amoi gst ourselves, and I for one am
wiliii -g to yield my own opinions for
the success of any plan which will tend
to save the South froni rtiin;
lam very respectfully and truly
yours,
Wade IT ami-ton.
To General D. H. Hill.

General Presentments o r the
Grand Jury For the Fuat Week
of September Term, I§7l, ol'
Bartow Superior Court.
We the Grand Jury, select ed for the first
week of the September Term, 1871, of liar
tow Superior Four!, bee leave to subii.it the
following General Pi e .er.tmeuts:
Through our various commit tees we find
die’rt coni? of our county officers without!
exceed find neatly ami correcih kept.
Our public buildings are ftll-in good order i
and well adapted to toe different purposes
f r which .they were designed, .except the
jail. We nr*.- informed ;h:it this will snort
ly be replaced, by anew aud elegant jail, ;
now near its completion, but which, not yet
having been turned over to the building j
committee of,the Bounty by the contractors,
can not properly be embraced in this report '
except so far as the cost of its erection af r |
feet.s the financial condition oi the comity.—v
\\ e find, upon oon.suitaiion with the Qjrd-ina- ;
ry that it will cost, when completed $13,080, |
fur which eitlire sum a tax has been levied
upon the county, ami is new in process of
collection. Our tax-receiver’s books devel
op the fact that this jail lax, taken in con
nexion with all the other taxes for both
State and county purposseg assessed lip on
the county for the currant year amounts in
the aggregate to the sum of $40,519 Cf>, or
one and a fifth per. centum upon entire tax
able property of the county. This, we be
lieve, is a heavier burden than any to which
our people have heretofore been Subjected
in the way of taxation. Looking to the
'general failure and shortness of crops, dur
ing the present year, we feel constrained to
express our regrets that our county author
ities, acting upon the advice of a former
Grand Jury, should have embarked in an
enterprise which weighs so heavily upon our
people at; tibia particular junction. In ex
pressing our sy m pul hy for the overburdened
tax-payers of the county, of whose number
vve ourselves constitute a part, we do not
wish to be luidust ood a &te nr tiring the Gram!
Jury that recccmmended the erection of the
new jail. They, doubtless, were guided by
the best lights before them, aud acini upon
the reasonable presumption that our people
would be blessed with an average degree of
prosperity. However this may have been,
it would be uube,oming in us, at this stage
of our affairs, to content ourselves with un
availing regrets, or whimsical censures.-*•
This contract has been legally made, the
work is well nigh completed, the liability is
upon us. aud ii is our obvious duty to ad
dress ourselves to to the best possible means
of meeting it. Feeling conscious of this fact,
and knowing the g. eat stringency of the
moi:eyfn.arket, rind the consequent disad
vantages under which, particularly our ag
ri'.ulturul population w ill labor, in end avor
iug to raise money to meet th.eir tax ac
counts, our body has cast about in vain for
some measure of temporary relief. The
possibility of negotiating a loan to meet a
portion of our heavy taxes for the present
year, was suggested, uud earnestly discuss
ed. But, cognizant of the fact, that w e would
be compelled to pay exh orbi t ant rates of in
terest, and to negotiate our bonds, if we ne
gotiated them at all,at a heavy discount, w r e
are forced to view l this, to say the least of it,
as a very questionable method of relief.—
Being unable to devise any method of relief,
which, under existing circumstances, would
not make the remedy worse than the dis
ease, we deem it our duly lo counsel a pay
ment of the tax as at present assessed, anti
a total extinguishment of the debt.
L'peii examination of the tax-receiver’s
booka we find that the aggregate value of
the taxable property of the county is $3,-
190.870, nearly $2,000,000 of which is real
estate The iStaie tax upon this for the cur
rant year, is sl2 703 48. the county tax
$20,0-0 90, specific tax $2,190 00; amount
ing in she aggregate as before stated to $40,-
r tt; TITiTS-Tjrrrr, arrt; K.etrprn'J TOTS ntct
in view, we. deem it but justice that each
property-holder should hear his proportion
al part of tue burden ; and w bile we are
gratified io state that this is generally lie
case, we call the attention of the Receiver
to the fact that in a few instances he has
received the returns of property far fee low
its real value, and we urge him to use more
diliigeuoe in ike future, and inform himself, :
by enquiry or othewisc, as to the true value
of property returned to him.
Before quitting this subject of taxation
wc would take occasion to reiterate the sev
eral solemn protests, which have been en
tered by former Grand Juries of this county,
against the reckless extravagance, and ut
ter disregard of honesty, which lias for
several years, characterized the administra
tion of our State finances. We deem it
proper in this connexion also, that our im
nridiate r presriKotivvS, Messrs. Wvffoid
and Gray, in whom wc have entire confi
dence, aud to. vviiVW the oj pressed, and out
raged tax-payers of the cupnty are looking
for relief, be riqUeVl cd to diligent
ly, and thoroughly, into the financial condi-
linn of tiie State, exposing fearlessly all
frauds and peculations, and, if they shoiuld

We would take occasion, before closing

f om the vj,ws of two form -r grand ju
ries. updn fit - subject of raising jury foes

are totally opposed to the increase us our

t relieve our excellent and efficient Ordi
nary of all odium which may have attached
to him, in regard to to the expense incurred
in the erection of our new jail. We find J
that he lias acted entirely under the instruc
tion oftuogrnni jur.es of the county, aud
In.s shown due regard for the interests of
the county, and great diliigeuoe in the dis
charge Os the duties of his "dice. We be
-1 eve. however, that grand juries should
j exercise more caution in recommending the
appropriation of county funds for the erec
tion of public buildings, which are regard
ed, by many of our tax-payerg, as unneces
sary in theii'jjxtrnl- and elegance of finish,
and which ha? called forth the oppressive
'ax of till? year. We beg of ail our county
authorities that they would retrench the ex
penses yf the comity; and, we hope, that the
tax payeirS will enforce this request at the
ballot box.
It is not merely to comply with an estab

unanimously resolved to tender to Ilia Hon

for the ability arid impartiality which he
has displayed in the administration of the
