rhe German Vote.

During the past four years, great many 0ef-
mans have voted against tie Republican candidates
=, STATE and municipal elections all over the Nortn'
,bo West and the Northwest This was mainly on
.oo,,nt ofheir belief that the Republicans, outside
~ national affairs are committed, as party, to the
ol;ev Of sorbidding all traffic in intoxicating drinks
whether distilled spirits, fermented or malt IL
ouors. Now, Hans and Gretchen don't believe 1t
wrong to dripk lager beer at public drinking re-
sort, and to drink just much of it as they like and
can pay for. So they naturally and deeply resent
any attempt 10 force them by laws and ordinances
70 accept and act upon somebody else's eonseien-
tious views and TO drive them to become virtaous
according to somebody else's scale of virtue.
Knowing this state of things, good many men
in both parties had reekoned it to be quite as likely
that the German vote might be cast for Seymour
this year as for Grant But they overlooked one
fact. Municipal affairs and municipal policy are
one thing-national affairs and national policy are
another thing This the German sees plain enough,
and although he may dislike prohibitory liquor
law he intensely hates rebel So the German
vote-the bulk Of twill be thrown for Grant.

Letter from Atlanta.

ATLANTA, GA, Oct. Is, 1S6S.-The Geor-
gia Annual Conference of the Methodist

day, Rev Bishop Clark presiding. Forty
FIVE ministers and large number of visi-
tors were present. The session was held
in the basement of the new Methodist Epis-
eopal Church in Atlanta, now approaching

The preachers are in good cheer and re-
port considerable success. Large aces
sions of ministers and members have been
realized during the year. Churches have
been built, schools planted and sustained,
and tho general interests of the Church
have been advanced
In Atlanta, under the labors of Rev. j.
Spillman, new brick Church 54XS0 feet
has been built, and tis basement completed.
The main audience ON has been 1oored
and awaits plastering, seating, painting and
glazing, when it will be one Of the neat
est and best Churches in the city.
The membership has increased, monthly
by conversions, one hundred and fifty.
cannot give accurate statistics of this
Conference but the whole increase in the
two Conferences in Tennessee, and in this,
will not be much less than one hundred
preachers, and ten thousand members.

THREE BATTLES In ONE DAY!
Three Splendid VIctOrlesll
The Enemy Routed ~!

On Tuesday morning, the 18th inst, about day
break Gen. Grant moved upon the enemy In Penn
,ylvspia and the hgbt was desperate throughout
the day. The rebel-demOcratic army was reinforced
every hour in the day by bushwhackers from New
Jersey, New York, Maryland and Virginia. Grant
and bis army we're victorious against sl odds wind
ing up the battle with a majority Of twenty five
thousand.
In Ohio the battle was fierce from morning till
night, contendng against the rebel-democratic ar
my, backed up by numerous recruits Of bushwhack-
ers from Kentucky, Grant triumphed gloriously,
and marched his forces over the field with clean
majority Of thirty thousand.
In Indiana the battle was terrible and fierce from
morning ill night. Along the State line Kentucky
busbwhackers damaged US, but when We come TO
concentrate our forces Grant led the Grand Army
of the Republic 10 victory, winding up with go-
rious majority Of fifteen thousand. Never were
three such battles fought in one day. and never were
three such victories won in a day. These battles
close out the war We have only 70 arrange the
terms Of peace on the Sd Of November. BY that
time the enemy viii be prepared 10 cay, Let as
have peace"
The Democracy managed 10 get up several lights
and several riots in the different wards Of Philade-
phia, wounding some and killing some All these
r1Ous grvw UuT the teachings OF Frank Blair's
letter and the speeches of Forrest and Wade HAmP-
ton and go 70 show that the Democracy is not will
ling 10 risk the issue at the ballot box and is clear
admission that they are whipped The result of the
riots shows that the Republicans can play at the
same game, for it appears that they gave them as
good as they sent. SENIOR EDIToR.

who are the Friends of the South ?

Is it Fort Pillow Forest, who brags of
his $4,000 Ku-Klux thugs in Tennessee
alone ready and waiting, and eager to
burn the houses aud mills to shoot the cat
tic and TO hamstring the mules of such men
as think differently on political questions
from himself; or is il Governor Brownlow
who sternly declares that such deeds are
acts of lawlossness, and that those who do
them are outlaws, and must and shall be
treated as outlaws2
Is it Andrew Johnson, who deludes the
lovers of the lost cause into the notion that
they may yet recover that cause, and once
more trample the freedmen down into a
state of subordination TO their old masters !;
or is it the Congress who declares equal
rights and even-handed justice to all
blacks as well as whites2
Is it Blair, who declares for revolution
that shall overthrow the State governments
established by Congress, thereby opening
up fresh civil war, moro deadly, more
bloody, more fierce than the one just past
or is it Grant, who says "let us have
peace p
