SUPPLEMENT TO DAILY BY ?ATHCART, McMILLAN & MORTON.I CHARLESTON, S. C, OCTOBER 11, 1865. [SINGLE COPIES FIVE CENTS. DAILY NEWS. Wo invoke the solemn attention of tho peoplo of Virginia to tho following Words of warning from ?nu of their wisest and best friends, tho National lotelligencor. In view of the calamities that may tjomo-upon a, community alroady bowed to the ?arthby sorrow, in view of tho glorious deliver ?nco which they may aocomplish by heeding theso words of affectionate counsel, wo oro utterly in different to any amount of abuso and persecution ?hut our poraiBtont effort to savo them from, ovil counsellors may bring upon oursolves. Wo want words to express the profound And painful solici tude'with which wc await tho result-of tho ap proaohin? elections. Tho prosperity and happi 11C88, perhaps tho lives, of their loaders aro ?n volvedra tho issue. Wo beg thorn to road and re flect upon the exhortations of a journal whoso ?deep and manly sympathy wi,th their condition, ancT whoso sound judgment and comprehensive patriotism none can doubt. Says, tho National Intelligencer, of September 29th:.; ? .- . "The present low estate of tho radicals as com pared with tho advanced position of the conserva tives must not for ono moment be construed into the idea that any important influenco in the North ?8 Icb? cornent now than it' was during tho war to demand all tho sacrifices forfeited to the Union by tlio rebellion. There..can'-be., no step backward. .Whatconsorvatism has gained in the North has fceen gained by such conduct in the South ns has ao far characterized tho action of Mississippi and /Alabama. The cheerful and generous confidence of the President has doubtless boon regulated by tho Southern thermometer?let that fall to ?to and the Sunny South may realize a sudden and sharp winter. Let them not court ?ho fato dc ?cribodtoy thopoot: : \ * % -?his farewell tone ? . .!..... Rings In my car. 'T will be the last. My heart's tierce ordeal is past; Beneath th? etars / stand atone. "Wc do. not 6ay these words in a doubtful or halting spirit towards tho South, in, whoso good sense and patriotism wc havo great confidence. What wo now utter is out of the abundance of cau tion.. .Higgling, pettifogging, prevaricating, quib bling about test oaths, and on such settled points a? tho Constitutional amendment, is simply mortal poison to their future. All that Northern conaer vatiafy claims for tho South, aud all that it will in sist on for them, is simply thus summed up : If tho South shall, in good faith, absolutely abolish slavery and recognizo. one sovereign nationality. And shall send ns elected to Congress men not original, notorious and absolute conspirators, nor yot men of any new crop of blatant political here tics, then tho conservative masses of tho North will successfully demand that such States, so rep resented, shall not be excluded because of the Act of 1862, nor be subjected to the test of negro suf frage; and they will, in snch caee, further demand that tho thits evidently loyal South shall not bo de stroyed by an oligarchy untler any pretext, or by iho assertion of any such assumed power as would give to- Congreso tho right to wantonly disfranchise til (Uli. "Bnkitis for the South to make tho case on which tho North will stand up for than in the name of the Union ns against any and all disunionists. ?o party in the North could livo on any other ground than this if it would, and no Northern par ty of sonso and patriotism anil influence would oc cupy any other ground if it could. The national body must ho-jrestored to healthf and the sooner tho octter. Anil there is no Bcnaiblo reason why the South shall not liy to effect tho euro of tho na tional case, which is in their own hands. Every hour is big with the fate of the South. The crisis is fairly upon us, and in this crisis we believe that the Southern people will promptly and gallantly ?spurn all other counsels but those which shall lead thorn to a noble stand by tho national policy of the President as disclosed in his resolve to restore the Union, and not to bring again to life even one of the Feeds of the blasted and withered rebellion. The law of necessity, when necessity is invoked to aavo the life of the nation, is tho' LAW PARA MOUNT." That able and influential journal, the Philadel phia Inauirc<-, referring to the reply of President Johnson to tho Charlottosville committee, says: "At tho sarao timo he suggests that it is the wish of tho Executive that 'loyal and true men, to whom no objections can be inttde, should bo elected to Congress.' The reply ought to satisfy those Vir ginians that it will bo a fruitless experiment to elect a conservative candidate whoso conservatism failed him in the hour of trial. From the compo ?itiott of tho next Congress, which is largely Re publican, it is a reasonable inference that no can . didato will be admitted from a Southern State whoBo conscience is too tender to tako tho oath. The act requiring the administration of that obli gation was passed to meet the prosent emergency, and it was intended thereby to prevent tho return to Congress of tho men who went from it upon /secession, or of others who aided or assisted the rehejlioua movement." The Washington correspondent of the Now York Metropolitan Record, a journal which has gone beyond all others of tho North in its advo cacy of the South, has a column of earnest appeal on the same subject. Wo have only room for the conclusion. After quoting tho test oath, the writer says (italien aro his own): "Th is o nth was framed and adopted by Congress, and the aet embracing it was approved on the 2d <>? July, 1*302. It stands to-day between every representative and hie duties, and will not be re pealed except by Southern votes. It is very easy to ?ay tho oath in illegal or unjust ; hut it is a fact. and must be met as such. It will not bo repealed by such a Congress as we had last winter. It must and will bo repealed sometime. That work must be dono by Southern members; but before they can repeal the oath they must tako il. I think I 'have now said enough to bo understood. If tho South want? representation in the next Congress, it be hooves her to see that eho sends mon who can go into Congress."?

They must sco that their Atlantic and Great Western, rich as it is now. will bocomo fur more valuable when its freifrhf trains aro burthencd with the teas of Chi na and the spaces of the Occidental nations.

I was very late in availing myself of tho berviccs of this great, beneficent* hand-maiden of modern womanhood. I havo longed for one vagaoly for veara, and made many resolutions to procuro one, but havo refrained, from painful doubts of my own ability to manage a creature that seemed to me ao "fearfully ana wonderfully made.'1 Being but modestly endowed with mechanical ingenuity and insight, I dreaded the trouble and vexation of learning to work any machine, and my inquirios of friends were always for the most simple invention. The weight of rehablo evidenco being overwhelm ing for that of "Willcox ?. Oibbs, I at last decided upon it, procured it, and am more than satiotlcd. I began my acquaintance with it with some tre pidation, but it soon put me quite at my eaae. We were capital friends at once, and, as yet, have had no falling out. Together we fell right to work, and manufactured an article of clothing very cre ditably that very morning. Tho simplicity of this maohine is only equalled by the unerring accuracy with which it works. Our little daughter, after a very few trials, was able to manage it nicely, and tho two aro now on excellent terms. Tho only trouble is that mamma oannot aupply work fast enough. She laugba to seo it hungrily devour tho tedious long seams which were once her aversion, and then lick up tho ltttle seame, lit me, tucks and feus with such appa rent relish.
