??.t Vf ?, . i COLUMBIA, S. C. Suaday Moraine, October 24, 1869. Paith, Hope and Chatltj?-Th?i? Th re c, Wt ?fcc GrcnUH ol UMM, Politically, ut ?BUS Tim?, la Faith with Worke. We do not aspire to preach a sermon to our readers. We leave that to better men. But we deaire this day to speak a ?ord to a certain class of our follow citizens in Bon th Carolina. We speak not at this time to tho colored citizens of South Caroline. By the - great majority o? these wo know full well that our words *ould pass by, like the idle winds which we regard not-for we ?re coi thor "radi? cals" nor 1'conservativo Republicans." Wo are neither from Now England nor yet from Africa; but-terrible thing-we are to the "manor'bom," nay, more, an ox-slavo-halder and aa "ex-rebel," of the deepest dye We speak, therefore, with the hope of more effect io that portion of -our fello w-o?i izons at present so slight? ly represented iu South Carolina-that portion vvhiob, representing' largely the refinement, the tono, the intelligence and the capital of -the State, are yet vir? tually proscribed \indor tho prevalence Of radical reconstruction. We speak to the oitizens o? S o nth Carolina, with whom the past of South parolina is as? sociated with brave, high, tender and sad memories. We speak to those whom tho late war loft with bleeding hearts and shattered fortunes. We speak to tho falsely styled "rebel" class of tho State. To them, we repeat the heading of our article, and say, friends, associates in a common cause, "Have Faith, Hope and Charity"-these three, but above all, cul? tivate faith. We know that there are men in the State-good and true-who are disposed to break their swords and give up in South Carolina the political field to the rude party that now walk it ia triumph, gathering the spoils. But this will never do. The hearts and homes that we cherish in South Carolina, tho love we bear tho commonwealth, the duties that we owe our wives and chil? dren, a thousand high considerations all bid ns to work on in the spirit of faith, hope and charity, to restore our State to the rightful rule of her intelligent, true and virtuous sons. This is a consumma? tion good for the white man-good for the black man-good for South Caro? lina united and btvrmouious-good for the interests of capital-good for the in? terests of labor-good for tho cause of religion? morals and education. Wo ask, then, the white men of South Caro? lina-her youth and manhood-not to give np the political field. Let us, at least, fix upon a policy that is sagacious, vital and likely to be victorious. Let us have charity for all, and malice for noue -hope in our future-faith in our po? litical principles and our ultimate suc? cess. Let us endeavor to improve and purify, if we canuot supplant, the rule that is over us. Let the whites of South Carolina seek to exert a just influence in tho government of the country. An ex? change says: "It is the Government that their own sages and heroes helped to form. It is tho Government under which, willing or unwilling, it is their destiny to live, and it should be their desire and aim to make it as perfect as possible. If a bad Government, or if badly adminis? tered, they will have to enduro its evils. If a good Government, and well adminis? tered, they will participate ia its bless? ings." We aro part and parcel of tho great Government at Washiogton. If so. let us seek to secure our portioa of its benefits. Let us purchase noue of these benefits by unmanly concessions. But, as far as wo can, let tho strifo ami bittcraoss of the past be lost ia hopo and work for tho future. To restore our State and our South to its pristine vigor, woalth and prosperity-to its former pride and spirit of independence; this is, indeed, a noble work, worthy of patriot toil and patriot effort. As an exchange suggests: "Why should wo give our? selves up to sad thoughts, gloomy fore? bodings and unavailing tears-to useless regrets for tho past, which we cannot re? call-when there is so much of promise in the future which belongs to us, and whioh we may command." And most heartily do we respond to tho invitation of the New York Republic, when it says to the people of tho South: "Let us shake lennis once more, and with the broad, uadissovered banner of the Union floating over us again, pledge eternal fealty to the land of our fore? fathers-together fighting its battles and sharing its glories." ?l.t.) 4 * ** '-~~" TUB SYNOD OF SOUTH CABOLISA.- The Synod of South Carolina motin Chestor, October 20. From the Reporter we learn that the Synod is composed of eighty six ministers, and ILA. churches. The boundaries of the Synod are co-exten? sive with the State, and it includes four. Presbyteries. The Synod is connected With the General Assembly (?. S.) of the Presbyterian Church, South, whioh ex? tends over the territory recently acknow? ledged ns tho Southern Confederacy, be? sides the State of Kentucky, and a hopeful expectation of being reinforced by the State of Missouri. TIM tfcaU Ul? Tlau?^M^. ** *** -IM whioh, in a p?oul souls* Wh?fl the! peojpe of theJStatjr) kno.*n With what ness they obeyed the call ot dnty ; and it ie equally well known with what courage, and fire, and persistency, they fought during the war. Son th Carolina was nobly illustrated by many wbo fell, and by many who now lito. And her noble | women, in n, style unique and heroic, did their part by. the soldiers, ju the field, Jn the camp, and ia the hospital. There "?as but one party is South Caro? lina. The man who labored at home and those who fought in tho field alike aided and abetted the so-called great Southern rebellion. Now the times are ohanged. New virtues are in demand. New duties hare arisen. Other trials are upon ?B ex-rebels, and we pass through the ordeal of new temptations. What, now, is thc manhood that we are called upon to practice? Manhood, now, of the genuine order, calls apon oar people for industry, energy and economy. These are tho potent means whereby we are to bo rouewed, and invigorated, and inspi? rited. These are the weapons with whioh we are to fight the foes to our prosperity. Again, it calls upon our people 1or faith, patience and forbearance. Faith ia tho re-establishment of ourselves and our State-this wo laust have; ami we must bo patient, too, in waiting for our deli? verance; and forbearing, also, under tho pressure ot our bitter persecutors. Again, and abovo all, we mast be true to our honest political convictions, and loyal to the just claims upon us of tho memories of tho post. Wo must stand up for the cause that wo deem right, even amid defeat. We must do this in reason and moderation, or elco we loso that vital spirit of a mau or a people self-respect. At thia timo in particular, in our own State, when the loavos and fishes of office are apt to tempt mea from the paths of honor and propriety, it is proper for us to mark well those who fall in shame by the political way-side, hun? gering after the "flesh-pots of Egypt," and unmindful of what is due to their State and their families. When ve seo mea who "bead the pregnant hinge* of the kaee, that thrift may follow fawn? ing," mark them well-uot for injury; not for persecution; not for hate; but for just scorn. These men may, for awhilu, flourish like a green bay tree, bat not long can this last. When reputatiou withers and dieu, what remains of a mau? Andrew Johmon not Klecled--Thc Phi loinpbf of the Defeat Svggestefl. We regret to have to say that Andrew Johnson failed to be elected by a few votes. Mr. Henry Cooper is tho Sena? tor elect from Tennessco to the United States Senate. Thus has tho character? istic feature of this era been illustrated we mean that this is tho era of middle? men. The bold, outspoken, leudiog master spirits in politics give place to the class of middle-men-men who stand mid? way between the contending parties nieu who, because they have no very great earnestness, have few or no politi? cal enemies. Perhaps this is well, but it docs seem not very fair that those who strike tho blows and deliver thc battle and win tho victory of intellect, should not be allowed to wear tho wreath and enjoy tho honors. Bat so it has ever been, more or less, ia this couutry, since the era of Washington, Madison, Adams and Jefferson. Neither Clay, nor Web? ster, nor Calhoua, roached tho Presiden? tial chair, aad yet they were avowedly master spirits-men who commanded the atteatiou of "listening Senates" and led mea captivo to their views. But wo re? peat the proposition, that of all the eras wo have had, this of all eras is thc era of rniddle-nicn-of second-rate men. This is tho disease under which thc country labors. It can bo explained, but it is not creditable to tho country, that ita high? est ability, ita noblest spirit, should bo at a discount. Mit.

NE* YOBK.OO^1%I8?9. r MT DEAS QENEBAI.: Aa I tWd to yog i inmediately after your election, that there was no officie which I desired either for myself or any friend, I have had no occasion to write to jon in regard to auch matters. There is a matter now, however, that concerne- you personally, and in which I feel that I discern your interest BO plainly, that I take the liberty to write to you with reference to it I do this with leas hesitation, because you did me the honor after your election to con fido to me pretty fully yonr views. In the present disturbed state of the public mind concerning the recent gold combination, is it not the quiekest and surest Way to set at rest the great excite? ment and uneasiness which prevail, for you to make a brief denial over your own signature of all foreknowledge of that combination, in order to relieve yourself entirely from all responsibility for the acts of others? Of conrse, those who know YOU personally do not require auoh a disclaimer; but the great publie, whose minds arc liable to be warped by the determined and persistent efforts to injure you, will be, it seems to mo, at once satisfied and quieted by such a state? ment. Sincerely yours, ROBERT BONNER. PRESIDENT GRANT. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 13,1869. Robert Donner, Esq.-DEAR SIR: Your favor of tho 11th inst ?mt is received. I have never thought of contradicting statements or insinuations made against mo by irresponsible parties, as those arc alluded to in your letter, bnt ns you havo written to me on the subject, iu so kind a spirit, I will say that I hud no more to do with tho late gold excite? ment in New York city than yourself, or any other innocent party, except that I ordered tho salo of gold to break the ring engaged, as I thought, in a most disre? putable transaction. If tho speculators had been successful, you would never have heard of any one concerned with the administration ns being connectod with the transaction. Yours truly, U. S. GRANT. N. B.-I have written this in great hosts, and without exercising judgment as to the propriety of writing it, but I submit it to yonr judgment. U. S. G. We think it ovident that the President did not exercise judgment as to tho pro? priety of writing this note for Mr. Bon? ner. It is better for the Ledger thnu foi the President. The World, whilst ac? quitting General Grant of any conscious complicity with the gold gamblers, thinks it plain that ho was tho dnpe ol artfnlmen. The World presumes that Mr. Corbin-tho President's brother-in-law had obtained from General Grant tho in? formation under which the gold gambler* acted, viz: That the Treasury did no! intend to make any large sales of gold, This information, tho World presumes, was either fished out of General Grant, or was unconsciously given by him without suspecting what usc would bc made of the knowledge. Thus having unconsciously caused the speculation the President consciously intervened t< break it down, in order to protect hi own reputation against injurious suspi cions. Such, at least, is the version o tho World, and it seems disposed to bi fair. On the question of General Grant' explaining himself to Mr. Bonner, tb World says: "Wo quite agree with the opinion, o rather the misgiving, expressed by Gen eral Grant, in his postscript, that he ha made this reply to tho friendly officious ness of Mr. Bonner, 'without exeroisinj judgment os to tho propriety of writiu) it.' Mr. Bonner ovinces his usus shrewdness in contriving to exhibit him self in the Ledger and (as tho correa pondenco is certain to bo universal! copied) in all tho newspapers of tin United States, as standing on u footiui of close intimacy with the President o tho United States. But the ndvantog of this pleasant billing and cooing is no mutual. President Grant, 'withon exorcising judgment,' unconscious! lends, himself to promoto tho interost and reputation of an enterprising join nalist, much as. equally 'without-exex cisiug judgment' or knowing what h was about, he became tho 'innocent' nc complice of the gold gamblers. 'Inno cent!'-yes; if, in his exalted station ignorance can bo innocent; if being tool without knowing that ho was a toe is innocent, thon General Grant was a innocent 'as a babe unborn' of nil th mischief perpetrated hy the gold opera tors. But tho baba unborn is irresporj siblo, whilo tho ehief magistrate of great nation is in a position of responsi bility which precludes him from takin shelter behind a pica of ignorance."

This company has been recently organized, and is now erecting buildings and machinery for pressing oil from cot? ton seed. Its production will be abont 500 gallons of oil and six tons ol oil oake per day, and it will be in full ope? ration early in December. It ic vites every planter in tho State to send his cotton seed to have the oil expressed1 on toll, and the cake returned to be used as feed for his mules and horses, Sod those who wish may also become stockholders and participate in the large profits which the enterprise promises. Working in this way, on the mutual principle, owned and controlled by the planters them? selves, this enterprise is oho well worthy the encouragement of all interested in the development of Southern resources, and keeping our money at home. Tho value of cotton-seed oil cake as feed for stock has only recently been discovered, and when it is once appreciated, the cul? tivation of corn for Stock-feeding will be abandoned. The Eeport of the Com? missioners of Agriculture, Washington, 18G5, says of it: "In the albuminous or flesh-forming portions, cotton seed meul far exceeds tito very best English or American linseed meal, and we have by repeated experiments proved that for the production of milk it is worth just about double corn-meftl pound for pound, and for making all kinds of animals fat and glossy, it exceeds all other kinds of food." DEPARTMENT OF COTTON AND WOOL SALUDA MILLS.-PROPRIETORS, CHILDS, JOHNSTON AND PALMER.-Tho property consists of over two hundred acres land on both sides of the Saluda river, with water power capable of running over .10,000 spindles.

Products : No. 20 and 22 warps nnd twist, which are sold exclusively in Philadelphia. Some coarse yarns made for the local trade. The number of operatives over one hundred and thirty, ull white with the exception of six. Tho Factory is managed by Col. Palmer, ono of the owneri. WOOLEN FACTORY.-JAMES G. GIBBES, PROPRIETOR.-At the Saluda Factory, J. G. Gibbes manufactures woolen jeans and domestics, and employs abont ten hands. Ho buys wool for cash, or ex? changes his cloth therefor. THE ARTISTICAL DEPARTMENT.-Tho Photographic Establishment of Messrs. Weam and Hix. This is one of the most complete establishments in the South. The proprietors are well known as skillful artists. The most improved implements in their Hue have been se? cured, all the modern improvements have been made available, and all kinds and styles of pictures are executed. At? tached to this establishment is a fine gallery. From this statement it will be seen that whilst Columbia is doing something in the important line of manufacture, there is ample room for improvement. Capitalists will also observe that there is a fine opening in some departments in particular. As before stated, & paper mill would be a good investment, and addi? tional cotton factories are in especial de? mand. The water power of the Columbia canal awaits the touch of capital, and we hope that some one will start it into life. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.-Attention is called to the following advertisements, published the first time this morning: M. H. B?rry-Furniture House. Columbia Clothing and Hat House. lt. C. Shiver-New Goods.

Terr's LIVER PILL IS NOT A PATENT MEDICINE, yet its composition (the result of years of study) is known only to himself, nnd so palpable ore their valuablo curative properties, that ver3" many of the first physicians in the South and West ho YO adopted them in their practice, and recommend thom to their patients. 023C Do you want an Appetite?
