The GERMAN VorE-The pro-slayery papers
are beginning to abuse the Germans, which is a
pretty sure sign that the BUCCANEERS despair of
securing their votes. The Richmond Wing,
whichis a disinterested spectator Of the struggle
between the Democrats and the Republicans,
and cares not which party gains the Teutonic in
fucncc, says: - rs
Everywhere they seendo be entering the
canvass for Fremont with remarkable spirit and
energy. What the Buchanan Democracy can
hope for, when they see their German legions
straying off from them, We are unable to COM
prehend. Certain it is, in our judgment, the
German detection in the North will insure the
complete and overwhelming overthrow. of the

on the contrary they have not even been in a
fight; instead Of most Of Col Treadwelps men
having fallen, not one of them was even taken
prisoner-all Of them, escaping without injury
to their persons. Not a single pro-slavery man
was either killed or taken prisoner at Franklin.
Col. Titus was not killed; his wounds, though
serious, are not mortal and he is in fair way to
