CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 6,1868. Cheering Tidings. The news from Washington, which we publish this morning, shows that the move? ment for the relief of the Southern planting interest, concerning the origin of which full information was given in this paper several days ago, is titking a substantial and prac? tical shape. We have reason to believe that the Presiient will, on the reassembling of Congress, make the reports of General HOWARD and the District Commanders the basis of a special message, which, while suggesting no specific plan of action, will strongly recommend immediate legislation with a view to relieve the already wide-j spread suffering at the South. Judging from the tone of the leading Northern jour? nals, of all shades of political opinion, we entertain the hope that Congress will not be deaf to such an appeal. Meantime there is comfort for our starv? ing people ia the assurance that General HOWARD, with the approval of General GRANT, has already ordered the Sub-Com? missioners to relieve absolute distress, and has directed ihe purchase of corn for distri? bution in the most needy sections. No where, certainly, is such aid more urgently required thar, along the seaboard of South Carolina. charleston and the Great West? The low country of South Carolina is for the present incapable of supporting this city, and tiae up country districts are tempted to send what little produce they have to the North via Wilmington or Char? lotte, instead of by Charleston. This city cannot live upou the local trade alone, and its merchants must more than ever look to the constant, encouragement of through business. Charleston cannot realize in money all the advantages of her position until her business men can ap?'*? command the capi? tal necessary to control trade, and until regular lines of steamships and sailing ves? sels run between this port and Europe. But, if our eyes are steadily fixed upon the one great ob ect of making Charleston the distribute g point for the trade of the great West, every lay some little will be accom? plished and Lue path wiii gradually be freed from the obstacles that now stand in the way of our success. It is discouraging of course to ki ow that corn is brought from Nashville and sent through to New York, via Charleston, to be sold at ten cents per bushel less than it would sell for in this city. This is the result of the money of the North, and must continue until there is money here to be used in a similar manner for the commercial benefit of Charleston. Yet something is gained when any stream of trade is directed through this port, and that stream, whether large or small, does not fail to leave some sprinkling of money behind it as it passes on to the North. Passenger travel must also be encouraged. Immigrants can. be taken to St. Louis and and the far West via Charleston more cheap? ly and more conveniently than by Boston or New York, and we must never cease to prepare for that day when the Sow of im? migration si all be from Europe to Charles? ton direct, ind thenoe to the flourishing cities of the West. One step on the road has already been taken, and arrangements have been n: ade by which immigrants can be brought from New York to Charleston by steamship at low rates, and be taken hence at two cents per mile to any point on the lines of the South Carolina, Georgia, and Memplda and Charleston Railroads. This is a be ginning, and, if immigrants can be convinced that this is the most economi? cal and pleasant route, the course of travel will be ohasged, emigrants will land at New York and take the steamships for Charles? ton, and, u'.timately the emigrant vessels will sail directly from Europe to this city. Every man should believe that Charles? ton can be made a great city; and then the belief will produoe patient energy, energy will produce confidence in ourselves, and energy and confidence, together, will pro? duce that ti ade and fortune whioh Charles? ton so Badly requires. Quern Dens* BUTLER is working hard for the leader? ship of the Southern negroes, and makes up by blustering talk for the radical weak? ness of hin cause. There is no halting in his furious declamation, and he is as fierce j in his vituperation of the Southern whites i ?a he was brave iu his war upon old men, women and children. At a speech delivered by him at Washing? ton on New Year's Day, he uttered the fol? lowing characteristic words : It is said that the negro proposes to be the governing irace. If they saw their duty to their God, to themselves and to their country, when slaves, not to institute the war of races when they Lad only the wives and children of their masters to contend with, will they now as freemen bring on a war of races, with the ballot in their hand, and with every hope of the future looming up before them ? I say here that ignorant loyalty is bettor than learned rebellion. We are told that there is going to be a war in South Carolina ; that the negroes are going tc rise. Why they are on tho top now. Superior in numbers and intelligence, and equal iii right, they are on the side of God and God is jn the aide of the right. There is no fear of a rising ; no danger ox a war. The men of the South have had enough of that, and their Northern allies have a constitutional objection to fighting anywhere. The war of races is an impossibility ; it will never be attempted unless war is made upon them, and if that be the case, hit those who bring it about take care. I am told he don't know how to vote 1 Yet he votes as I would were I in his place. I waa told tn it he would vote just as his master did. It tums out tbat he votes just aa his master don't want bim to yote. If the white man votes as the negro votes there will be no trouble, for they always vote on the side of | loyalty. Do not let any man say I have ex? alted the oolored above the white man. I only believe that the black loyal man is better than the white rebel, and I would sooner trust an ignorant friend than a learned enemy. . This, of course, was received with tu? multuous cheering, and if the negroes are not persuaded to "fight for freedom,'' it will only be because they have no faith in ? the generalship of (he valiant BENJAMIN. General BUTLER, is determined to have a' world-wide reputation, and his wishes will be realized. Fort Fisher will remember him ; New Orleans will bear testimony in his behalf; the soldiers of the United States will not forget the lawyer-leader who ever did the foolish thing, and never said the wise one. Natural it is, however, that the man who did so little in action, should do so much in words. GRANT is in his way ; CHASE is in his way ; SHERMAN, and PENDLETON, and HANCOCK, are in his way ; but he laughs at them all, and is resolved to " hoist th< engineer with his own petard," in at least splitting the strength of the Radical parry^j by the support of that very Southern negro element which is relied on by the Radicals to win the victory for the nominee of their party. BUTLER has been defeated more than onoe, and if he is defeated again his reputa? tion will not suffer. There is no danger for him in slander and falsehood, for from him naught else is expected. There is no dan? ger that he will lose the respect of honest men, for that is gone already. There is no fear for his memory, for he will be remem? bered with honor when purily and virtue are forgotten-and not until then. /or Sale.

J. N. ROBSON, Nos. 1 and 2 Atlantic What January l_wfm2no BODUNDA ISLAND GUANO. A Pare, Unmixed, Natural Ouana, ac Fine as Flour (although not Ground), Just in tue Condition in which it is Imported from the Island. rnBIS GUANO IS FROM A RECENTLY DE. X COVERED deposit on Rodanda Island, in th? Carribean Sea, West Indies, latitude 19 degrees 68 minutes north, longitude 62 degrees 2E minutes west It has been used for many years in the Wset India Islands in the cultivation of Sugar Cane and cereals with great success; wes introduced for the first time to the farmers and planters of the United States ia the spring of 1866. and has met with unprecedented success, as the subjoined reports and testimonials tul? ly corroborate. The BODUNDA GUANO is not a mineral 'phc*. phate, requiring the action of the Sulphuric Acid ta render lt soluble ; its great po war as a fertiliser is in its entire solubility, without tba sid of add. It ls not a "manipulation" or Compound of r lah or Flesh with Muerai Phosphates, the regularity of which ls always uncertain and dependent upon, ind controll? ed by the honesty of the manufacturer. The BO? DUNDA ls a PURE NATURAL GUANO (that term being understood to mean the excrement of fish-eat lng hirds), aa the large per centage of organic mat? ter sufficiently attests, and as found upon the Island of Bodunda, in the very state ss imported sod sold to consumers. The regularity and uniformity of the fineness and condition of the various cargoes already imported br us into the United States, tested by th? analysis of the most eminent Chemists of this country and Eu? rope, is sufficient proof of its origin and a guarani*? or our ability to furnish this Guano of the quality and purity represented. ThePRIOEofthe BODUNDA GUANO ls not tko least unimportant in these days of agricultural com? petition and pecuniary embarrassment The very low price at which it can be sold placee lt within the reach of every farmer, and a'n^da tho rta* of large loss frequently incurred by failures of the, crops in the purchase of high prf<^?ertitaere. In the preparation of lands cereals thia Guano possesses propextii s that render it more desirable for these crops than any yet offered, to the public. , . , _, Pamphlets containing th* analysis and axperi mentamadeby the most proininent ?h.unists of this counted in Europe, together with innumerate, certificates of its entire success irom armers and Planters, can be obtained at our Office, to which wa invite attention.
