C., Jan. 11.—Quite s ripple of cxcitement was created in political clrcles here tolay by the publication of a letter in an Au- gusta (Gia) paper, which opened upa secret page in the history of the recent campaign in tuls State. The letter Is suggested by the mission of Judge Mackey to Gov. Hayesas the accredited agent of fien. Hampton, and the writer ine genluusly mukes out & cass of bad fecling be- tween Hawnpton and Tilden, and a consequent link of sympathy between Hampton and Hayes. The letter states that Tilden was strongly op= poaci to the notalnation of Hampton as Goy- erpor, this opposition firat munlfesting Rsclf as carly as the 5t, Loms Conventlon through Col. Pelton. a tephesw of Gov, Tiden's, When the Htate Conventlon was held, Col. Coyle, of Wash- ington, an agent of Tilden's, was present to pre- vent the candidaey of Hampton, on the ground that It would be fnjurivus to the party, Coyle was remonstruted withy and he telezraphed for a chauge of fustructions, but Col. Pelton was inexorable. Hanpton was very wisely nominat- ed, notwithstanding the oppoeition fram Now York, but when he heard of 1t e was deepiy gered, and wan inclined to withdvaw, but was tinally overruled by his friends and vonsented to b run. After this, with & view o cstablish friezaly relutionw, I tampton addressed a Jetter to Tilden, assuriuge the lutter of his hope of carrying the Btate. That letter never was spawered: but this wna not all. The Democrats were forely ]W ed for funde during the cwapatin, ond tha - xecutive Committee wrote to Mr. Abram 3. Hewitt, reclting their necesaities and asking for rome essistunce. Mr. Hewltt replied thut ho had no money ve thiew, und, in cffect, that they must take ! themselves, "The letter then gues on to statelst these suce cessive fnsults and rebuffs naturally irritated Hampton, and caused hin not ouiy to'let Tilden suverely alone In the ennpulgn, but to favors . proposftion made by the Republicuvs to with- draw the ‘Tikten Electoral ticket for the consid. eration of $10,00) and a unanimous support ol his (Hampton's) ticket as against Chamberlalu's. It further churgzes that from this time for- ward the condidacy of Tilden wus tacitly ige nored: that the Democratlc epeukers confined themrelves exclusively to Stato palitics, while Judizes Muckey and Cooke, who oveupled the Jatiorm with them, spoke for Hoyes and ‘lnlll'llu and that this is why Tllden did not carry the State by 15,000 majority at least. The writer elizns hiinself ** A Tilden Democrat,” and hls revelations, which e believed hero to be contrary to the facts, ocegslon great uncasiness and perturbution amone the Deinocrats. Under thess oxtruordinary circumstances, I calted wpon Geu, Hamptons and asked his views concernig the stutements {n the letter. ¢ 1l was greutly surprised ut them, and salds #The writer lus fatlen into wany and grave cerors. 1 hal no_azeucy whatever in Judge Mackey's visit to Ohio, and he biore 1o proposis tlot nor even_messeze from me.

A subsequent Jm) 0sition was made on the same subject, und I declined this positly Judge Cooke, a Republicun, spoke for Tilden sud voted for him. Judwo Machey spoke with me at but two places, and fie will duubticss ay how e Yoted io thio Breals dentlal eleetion, Whether the cauvass wis & mistake or not §s not for me to say, but Ido say that I supported Tilden thoroughly and heartily throughout.
