Resident Cat Chasing and Hissing at New Kitten?

I have a one year old Turkish Van male cat and yesterday I bought a 3 month old male kitten and so far they are not getting along too well. My older cat chases the kitten around and hisses at him. I've tried to give him a swat on the behind and sternly said "no", but this is not working. Does anybody have any suggestions? Please I really don't want to have to rehome my new baby ;(

Hello...
First of all do not ever hit any animal. You will make your cat afraid of you. Please seperate the cats in different rooms and keep them apart for several days and let them sniff each other from under the door. Each day, let them be together for just a small bit of time and you should hold the kitten. When the kitten is back in his room, please give your resident cat a lot of attention.
