VOLUME V.NO. 635. CHARLESTON, S. C., MONDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 2, 1867. PRICE FIVE CENTS he Charleston Dally Xcws for 1S6S-Im? portant Announcement. Encouraged by the recent large increase in he circulation of THE CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS, the proprietors are happy to announce that, with the opening cf thc new year, the price of subscription will be reduced to a figure which will at once place the paper within the reach of every family in the city and throughout the State. On and after the first of January, 186S, THE DAILY NEWS will be pub? lished at Six DOLLARS A YEAR, payable, in all cases, in advance. It will then be, without exception, the cheapest first-class journal in the Southern States. There is no good reason why our community should not be furnished with a live daily newspaper at a rate approxi? mating that of the sprightly penn} press of the Northern cities : and the very generous support which has been accorded to us on all sides has hastened a step, long contemplated ou our part, towards meeting the popular want. It is hard? ly necessary to say that there will be no dimi? nution in ihe amount or interest of the reading matter in any department of the paper; on the contrary, it will be our constant effort and out pride to make it, day by day, more full, reliable and entertaining-the spirited compend of the world'9 news, the mirror of local life, and the mouthpiece of an enlightened and liberal pub? lic opinion. At the solicitation of many of our friends in the country, we shall also, during the first week in January, commence the issue of THE CHARLES? TON TRI-WEEKLY NEWS. The subscription price will be THREE DOLLARS A YEAR, or Two DOLLARS FOR SIX MONTHS, payable always in advance. This reduction in our rates will, we know, be all the more welcome to the public, inas? much as it comes at a time of unprecedented financial distress, when there are few, indeed, among our people who do not sorely need every dollar that can be saved. We do not permit ourselves to doubt that our enterprise will be rewarded with a steady increase of that popu? lar appreciation and support of which we have hitherto received so liberal a share. THE DAILY NEWS already enjoys a circulation largely exceeding that of any other journal now published in this or the adjoining States; and its readers may rest assured that, in thc future, no effort will be spared to increase the attractiveness of its columns, and to extend still further the field of its influence and use? fulness.

STANTON TO BE HEARD-FINANCIAL STATEMENT INTERVIEW BETWEEN THAD. 8TEVENS AND A MIXED DELEGATION FROM VIRGINIA, NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA-THE WEST INDIAN ISLANDS DURING THE HURRICANE. WASHINGTON, Decamber 14-P. M.-Secretary Stanton is to have a full hearing before the Senate Military Committee, to meet the President's charge. The National Bank circulation is two hundred and ninety-nine milUon, seventy-five thousand dol? lars. The Treasury holds as security for circula? tion and government deposits three hundred and seventy-nine million dollars. In addition to the milliou and a half dollars al? ready appropriated, one million two hundred thou? sand dollars is asked to cover the Reconstruction expenses to date. The receipts of the Iuternal Revenue to-dav was four hundred and five thousand dollars; for the week two million two hundred and fifty-three thousand dollars; for the year ninety-four million forty-seven thousand dollars. A mixed delegation from Virginia, North and South Carolina, visited Mr. Stevena yesterday. The following was elicited: Mr. Stevens said t ba: he regarded the impeachment failure an evidence of the fickleness of public opinion. The Virginia delegate said the failure lo impeach the President would work seriously against reconstruction. Mr. Stevens thought that it could not bo otherwise, and mutual regrets were exchanged. The North Carolina negro, Harris, said they would get along very well; Northern whites were more frightened about negro suffrage than Southern whites. Ho said that ex-Governor Holden was the lifo and blood of the Republican party in North Carolina. The Virginia delegate represented the aonditiou of things as critical, and that unless Congress came to the relief thc sufferings of the colored people and white Unionists would lao torri-le. Mr. Stevens favored tho repeal of the clauco re quir-ng a majority o? the registered voters. The delegation thought that would do, but suggested a law empowering the convention already called to establish provisional governments imme? diately. Then if the constitutions wero defeated, they would have, at least, loyal State officers. Mr. Stevens said that he had drawn up a bill with two or three beneficial provisions; one was to leave the majority to ailinn cr reject constitutions; ano? ther, that the present conventions shall, as inde? pendent bodies, establish governments, in lion of district commanders, as soon as constitutions wero ready for submission to Congress. Tho delega? tion approved this. Mr. Stevens inquired ?vh'.-ther their old masters would be able to seduce tho nc gioes from voting properly. Harris replied that the negroes were dependent on their old masters for daily bread. Thero was danger, bnt Harris hoped thc negroes were capable of enduring great privations. The Virginia delegate, Cook (colored ), said that Harris' remarks applied to his district. Eight hundred persons .u Richmond had lost places. Mr. Stevens hoped tho whole Southern vote would be cast for tho Republican party, this would elect a Repubbcau President, and assuro triumphant reconstructiou. WASHINGTON, December 13.-Tho Baptist Church, at the corner of 8th ard H streets, was bnrned-loss ?120.000. Cominodoro Bogga, ot' tho steamship DeSoto, has arrived. Thc DeSoto, in the late hurricane in tho West Indies, was thrown violently agaiust a wharf, knocking two holes in he?' bottom, which was 60on repaired. Tho Monongahela was thrown broadside upon the beach, high and dry. She will not got afloat until regularly launched. Four or Ave of tho crew were knocked overboard and lost. The officers are all safe. There are $3,000,000 ol' Freedmen's Bureau ap? propriations unexpended. Tho bureau expires in July by limitation. Commodore Busell, in his account of the disas? ter to thc Monongahela, says that only four lives were lost, and tho vessel, though ashore in the very town of Fredcrickstadts, St. Croix, may yet be saved. Havana specials state that accounts of the dam? age dono to the islands of St. Bartholomew and St. Martin, wore exaggerated. Only portions of the coast wero covered. Tho town of Barreterre is reported to have been destroyed by fire. The Danish proclamation transferring Si. Thomas to tho United States appears in the St. Thomas Times, of November 30th. Two years have been conceded to the inhabitants to effect a completo change of nationality. Thc Virginia Reconstruction Convention. RICHMOND, VA., December 14-P.

A resol i don. declaring all debts contracted since January 1st, I860, in the purchase of slaves, null, was referred. The chairman of thc Finance Committeo intro? duced a resolution that, whereas there is only about $100,000 in the Treasury, and $700,000 will be required to pay thc interest due January 1st, there? fore the Auditor and Treasurer be ordered to sus? pend payment of interest until tho convention is satisfied that there is money enough in the Treas? ury to pay said interest. Referred to the Commit? teo on Finance. A resolution inquiring how the State Kducalion ?T Fund will be disposed of was referred. The resolution and amendment relativo to the intimidation of voters came up, and tho convention appeared determined not to go into political de? bates, and as a very long ono had already taken place on tho same resolution, the previous ques? tion was sustained by a vote of sixty-two to twenty ive, and tho matter was refeircd to a committee. Thc conventi >n then adjourned. The weather is excessively cold here. A man ivas frozen to death on the suburbs of the city last light. 11 Thc Georgia Reconstruction Convention. | j ATLANTA, December 14. -In apparent defianco of ;ho relief ortUnanco adopted on Thursday last by ho convention, thc hhoriff levied hero to-day on i storo and oloscd it.

THE DISTURBANCE AT ATHENS, GEOHUIA, already noticed by telegraph, is thus described by the Athens Banner ; During the last week there have been alarming deiuorstrations among the negroes. Tho first was an assault on two white men, by a negro ai the dark-unknown to us-m which the white niO'j were severely pelted with bricks. Tho other was tho collection of nearly a hundred negroes on Tuesday night, armed with guns and pistols, and threatening vengeance on certaiu white per ons. Wo understood the immediate cause of the deinon stiation grew out of tn ; first dfficulty, above re? ferred to. Through ihe prudence and vigilance of Intendant Pittard and Major Knox quiet was re? stored without bloodshed. Just after dark Major Knox addressed the negroes, and fora limo they dispersed ; but soon aller assembled in Jackson street, and a crowd of whites, composed of police? men and citizens, vero on thc ground to aid the Intendant in restoring order. A larijo number of students also were at Laud, but as tuo iro of tho negroes appeared to bj especially bitter against them, they, at thc suggestion ol Intendant Pittard, rein ed to their homes. About hulf-p:isi tea a <?e tacument of soldiers came down and dispersed the negroes, preventing for thc time what threatened ? to be a seiious and bloody aflair. The origin of this unpleasant ailair Beel 18 to have been in sumo jostling iu the crowd nt thc post office delive rv, to Avenge which the two yuuuu' men were assaulted in the dark with brickbats and seriously injured. A negro, charged with tho offene/, was arrested, but was discharged by con? sent of all parties. Further jostling occurred at the same place, on subsequent oec isions, between white and color, d youth, whereupon the negro posse armed themselves to avengo their (?iic vances. Ihe real cause oi tue whole trouble wo relieve is, thc inflinimatorv harangues of one of the colored preachers, who,'in referring to a war of races, told his hearers to bc armed and re.idv for it. THE DUTY OK THE SOUTH. Counsel of an Old Time Virginia Sta! man-Hon. K. T. Hunter on thc fri -His Hopes of thc Future of Hie Olti 1 minion. ? In thc Virginia Conservative Convention, Thursday, Hon. R. IL T. Hunter hoing called u] to give hid views as to thc proper policy of Southern people at thc present juncture made address full of practical good sense. Ho cc menccd by saying that his own public career i closed forever, and that his counsel would bc si ply the suggestions of a private citizen. Refe/ring to thc future he said he was at a I aB to what was before us. If ho were to take I recent emotions as n test of thc feeling of I North, he could hope that the cup of univer negro suffrage woul 1 pass from us ; but if ho mi take thc Reconstruction net as tho ultimate a final decree o? the Congress which must rulo us least for tho next two years, then ho had only choose between military government or the cont of tho colored race. Between those alternatives had no hesitation in saying that he preierrod t military control. Under military government waa contr lied by mon of his own race ; educat men who acted under thc responsibilities of th commission and insomo degree under tho conti of a President who wo know to be disposed tc us justice, and accord to us. as fir as he could, o constitutional rights. If wo wore to bo plac under thc control ot thc black race in the count between the Potomac and thc Rio Grande, it w not difficult to divine the results, tt o had the e perieuce of Hayti and Jamaica before us. Thc wa? no doubt but that it would result in tho fi mation of;; black mari's party, which would pen cute tho wb'te man in all poasiblo mojes, liayti thoy were sadd nly emancipated as in til country, "and without adverting to Hie scenes atrocity which occurred when they had the conti of public affairs, it is enough to say that the rest was to destroy all the clem nts of material pro perity and moral progress. In Jamaica wo ha' the same history as .'ar as was compatible with tl control of th j "English Government. The san hostility to the white man, the same decadence agricultural production. Could any ono doubt but that wo should sc similar results in thc Southern States if the who country between tho Potomac and the Ibo Grant should bo submitted to the rule of Hie colore race? Tho Radical party scorned to think tba they would thus acaire the support of the whol Southern countiv sn long as thc black man shoiil rule. They would lind themselves mistaken i this after tho first election. The black* woul lorin, not a Radical, but a black man's party, an we know, from thc history of party warfare, Hit nil parties would bid for them. They would ai for flu benefit of themselves, and not for this <: that party of tho whites, and can there b? coi :eivcd anything more demoralizing than a part constituting, in tho language of or.o of the reaoli tions, one-third of thc Senate, and a fourth of Hi House of Representatives, who would thus bold th balauco of power between tho two parties of th white race, and act only for their own good. A Free Lancers in the field, they would determino a Imputed questions in reference only to their ow: interests. Ho said this in no feeling of hostilit :o the colored race, but ?ti accordance only Wi tl tho history of tho past. On tho contra rj lie felt kindly towards tho colored race, bu ;hought their welfare was to bo promote) in a mode which was contrary, perhaps, to thci awn view, Hut there wero (Lingers ahead ot then in their present course t J winch they bad not ad .cried, and which had been carofully concealei 'rom them. Suppose they could assume tho con roi of tho Southern States for tho presont, hov loner Would it last? Would Ibo white race in tin North long endure a state of things in which tin alacks, though a minority, would control, by hold mg the balance of power in all contested pol?tica inestions ? Would they connont to seo tho mate .tal resources aud productions of thc South wastei ind perhaps destroyed which used to yield then JO large a harvest of wealth ? Would they contrih ito to the result which waa lo restore the culti? vated field to the wilderness and junglo. and loa vi (bc wiid beast- and the alligator to reigp supreme ncr those plains and bottoms which heretofore lad been thc scats of a refined civilization, and ol i production whoso profits oxtondod North as wei i? South ? World th y stand by contentedly and ?ce tho moral, material and social elements ol strength and happiness wasted and almost de itroyoJ to maintain tho supremacy of Hie odored race, which would seem to be tho present policy. Every consideration of self-respoct and nat o nal nterest would forbid it. Tho extreme Western imitoi agricultural settlement East of thc Rocky U uulains has already been attained, lt cannot oe long joforc Hie tide of agricultura] immigra ;ion must soon tend Sonthwar I. Tho colored .ace will cot bc allowed to hold those immense re? sources in abeyance. This country belongs to thc ?/bite man, and they will claim ita coutrol. 'lo luhjeot the wlnto race in Virginia tc) tho govern ncnt of tho black race, when it is superior in lumbers, wealth and intelligence, would bo lo .ouinnt onu of Ibo highest of all sins, a sin igaiust nature. Would any party in tho loyal hatea permit the blacks to give thc power of tho zovernmcnt to a minority amongst themselves vhen th >y had onl. to call into action their own 'trength to avert it? Wa.8 there ever a race supe? rior in numbers, wealth and IHtolligOUOO to those vho governed them who tamely submitted to be io ruled? I throw out. these considerations not morely lo mcourage my own fellow-citizens and brethren, mt for the bluck race itself, for whom 1 have Hndly feelings. I was not only reared amongst them", and feel the kindly tics of early associa iou, mt I acknowledge tho obligation which rests upon is to give thom all the opportunities ot progress and development which we cnn afford them tn jus ice to oursohes. That tho reaction will como, I lave no doubt, but I fear it will come in a modo vhich 1 should regret os a friend to civilization ind humanity, and to tho bl ick race itself. And jupposo for thc sake of a brier period ot' control vhich is given thom, nat for their cm sakes, jut to secure the supremacy of tho Radical ?tarty they should thus got ?p a coutost be rwoen the races and incur the hostility of the IrhiteS, what will becomo of thom when .he reaction comes ? 1 shudder to think of :he result. If tho Radicals appeal to the blastt race to sustain them, will not tho other party invoke Hie aid ol the whiles, who are so much moro powerful ia all thc natural olemonta of it rc n gt h in the country bi which they may bc orougbt into competition. I speak not ouly in tho ntoresis o? the white, but also ol thc black raco, ivhon I protest against any Hestern ot laws which ?eeka ta place the weaker and inferior race in con? trol ovor that which is superior in wealth, num oers and intelligence. After all, ?ho caucus ol my community have moro interest in its good loverumcnt iban in the question of who shall iirect it. I will not offer tho advice, because it sill not bo recoived in tho spirit in whicn it is jffered, but far better would it bc for the blacks to eavo tho government ol the country where they i'uund it. ir thoy do not provoke the hostility of tho white race, they will be treated not only with ustice. but generosity. If th iv are made equal in thc oyo of tho law, and protected m all their ..Lilts", would they not be in ? fa.- bolter position ;o leavo thu government to tho whites, who are jest fitted tor it? ? am sino I speak not only my awn feelings, but those al<w of tue whito citizens af Virgini i, when I say that at present wo would tolerate no government a hieb did not respect not onlv thoir freedmen, but their just rights uf pei son iud property. Rut, r\Ir. President, it may bc that they will hoed no advice which 1 can give them. The Radical oarty which now controls Congress nu/ retain :hat for two j ears yet to come, and they may force m us a state of things contrary' not only to jus? tice, but sound policy. There' will nothing be loft :o us then but patient en lUronco until tho reaction comes. That it will come I do not doubt tor a mu? nie nt, and if it should bring consequences to the black race which wo shall all d?ploie, wc shall not ho respon. iblc for il. Mr. President, I ku >w what. [ recommend whou I counsel patient endurance ind manly fortitude to tho people of Virginia, if this state of thingM cbould occur. It will bo best Cor our beloved State that it should be so. The present generation has sufi red, still suffers and perhaps may continue, for .some time to come, to Rafter. Rut what is the life-time of ono genera? tion in the existence of a State ': Virginia will re? vive and fulfil a destiny as bi igi.i probably as her most ardent sons ever wished for her. Trials, dil? lie lilies and Bufferings constitute the disciplino by which individu?is and Slale-i aro trained to moral and hero.''' excellence. What individual ever at tained greatness who was reared in tho lap ol eti-o and luxury, and was not trained fur some part of his lifo, lu tho school of adversity ? What nation has achieved excellence in greatness which was not disciplined in the same school V England had what is called its rebellion, ti period of some cruel? ty and much suffering, and yoi from that rebellion sprung some ot those acts which aro tho proudest monuments of the lib< rty of thc subject, and more than ail, tho resolution iu winch were laid broad and doep the foundations of british freedom and prosperity. The revolution of Franco was far moro terrible. Tho wisest men trembled fo-r her futuro, aud vet from that rovolntiou sorang Hut equality of "all mea before the law, and tue throwing upe.:i of ail the pulses ol'h io to thu free a nd uqu. ! competition ?jt all, vbichgavoa now impulse tu the energy of thc nation, and placed it at tue he.- i of thc Euro? pean power.;. Who shall say that tho preset ocnoil may not provo a now seed of progress aud a n? w gei m of growth in tho career ot Virginia? 1 think I airead) see its effects in tho rising g mi - ration. Thc times aro teaching them habits of self-denial and self-reliance, which contributor c-o much io give strength ol cbara-tcr nt-1 self-re? spect. The tooling of patriotism is intensified by tuc prcsout condition of the good old Common? wealth, aud ovcry true .son fuels a redoubled de? sire to redeem her from her present depression and io reconstruct her morally and nationally. Ur. President, they will do it ! I'hQ vomis m in of Vir? ginia will do it. Let them meet their present dif? ficulties with a manly fortitude, .a noble constancy. Tho State 1:r>s bee., dismembered, it is true, but s'.e is etil, a groat Slate, large in territory and abounding in resources. I speak in no langa ige of compliment, when 1 say tba I believe we have the puoplo who will develo,J these resources. To speak the lauguago ol il ttl erv in these th ?es would ho vain and wicked. Dui tho past justillos my confide co in my foliow-cilizona; they have boen eon d io all emergencies iu the past,they will meet thc difficulties of the present in H proper spirit. Weare poor, very poer, i' is true but our lun ',, I trust, win be oodu6d with a patient fortitude and manly constancy. There is wealth in the earth-lot aa plough, di* and mine for it. There is wealth in our tabing waters andruuning stivat.i-, ibu,- will trna tho null ami build up uianufactories. There ia wealth, too-stores cf wealth-in oi\r b.ack diamonds; thov will make tho steam which drives tho car, propels tho boat and turns tho whoo!. Wc havo streams to bear away the fleets of commerce as far as the tide may flow, and we have forests to Duild those fleets. It is for the peuple of Virginia to sav whether wo have not thc men to develop those resources. I believe that we have. I have contidenco in mv fellow-citizens. I believe that there ia g/oat and glorious destiny yat in store foi Virginia. I have Riven, I think, a reason for the faith that is in mo. But, Mr. President. I confess that I, too, havo my moments of despondency. When I think of what Virginia has boen, of all that she has done for tho Union, her sister Stat?s ?ud for mankind, and then reflect upon her present condition, I may say, in tho eloquent words of an? other, that thought's, feehnga and emotions crowd upon my mind nliicli I cannot altogether repress, and yet which in humble submission to Divine Providence I daro not express. But I thank God that this is not my permanent state of mind. I do not despair. Tho present hours ot darkness and despondency will soon pass away, and Virerima, if not exactly her old soT, will be a great State again. Thc ?imo must come when Bho will hitch on to the F?deral train as groat as any in her con? stitution of freight and passengers; and who shall , say that the trumpet of leadership may not be placed once moro in her hands. Mr. President, every man has sometimes a belief for which ho cannot exactly account and which seems to como to him more from intuition than reason. Such, perhaps, is in fact the foundation of my laith in the future greatness and prosperity o'f Virginia. I believe, sir, that tho seed of Anglo American civilization was first sown on thc silent banks ol thc Jamos for some divine purpose. It is now noarly three centuries sinco tho Anglo Saxon carno," tho master buildoi of forms of gov? ernment, with his compass and squaro to lay tho foundations of thc immense social lab-nc which wo uow sec around us, etuoracing almost every varie? ty ol climate and raco WAI li are known upon earth. From that seed sprang the "Old Domin? ion," tho mother o? States and of statesmen. It was she who gave to tho Devolution thc leader ot its armies and to tho Union thc man more than any other who may bc considerod its founder and the preserver of it in infancy. It was she who gavo the author of thc Declaration of independ? ence, and tho long lino of Virginia Presidents un? der whose guidance the beginnings of empire wore laid which are the most painful Bteps in a nation's progress, ilcrgre.it mission seems to have been to promote individual liberty as far a? was consis? tent with thc existenco of Democratic Republican government. Wo appeal to history to sustain the assertion that whenever the Federal Government was under tho influence of Virginia principles tho people were harmonious, prosperous and happy, ind to soon as that government departed from those principles trials and discontent have arisen. Tuc o.d state of filings has passed away; concen? tration and consolidation arc now t ,o order of tho Jay. Time will ni tko up tho issuo betwo m Ibo old ?tatc of things and tho now; history will record that issuo, and impartial posterity will pro? nounce the verdict. I will not undertake to pro iict wbat it will be, but, as a Virginian, i do not Tear tho result. Mr. President, I hopo for bettor things, but -?Iii! [ will look to tho future in its worst aspect. Sup? pose that a temporary supremacy ot thc black race should be forced upon us. WoTnust meet it wil i a manly fortitude, a patient endurance; wo must do nothing inconsistent with our self-re jpect or wound the honor of our pcoplo, which to nations is tho pearl of greatest price. Patiently ivo will b:tlc our time until thc reaction conn s, as usurodlv it must. Tho interests of tho North will not endure thc wafite of so much of tho lourcos of its wealth an 1 prosperity; nml may I not hope that ?ta feelings will also forbid our sub ectiou to snell domination.
