Wade Hampton.
We publish, this morning, an eloquent and touching address from Gen. Wade Hampton to the people of South Carolina. This address bears the impress of patriotism, honesty and sincerity. It is couched in the language of a true son of South Carolina, and will be read with interest beyond the limits of this State. It will take the wind out of the sails of the radical press, which have made such a hubbub over his reported election as Governor. No truer patriot, or one more devoted to the welfare of his State and whole country, can be found anywhere, than the writer of this noble letter. All honor to Wade Hampton, for this last manifestation of his devotion to the weal of the people among whom he was raised, and who are proud of him as a type of a South Carolina patriot and gentleman.
