From our OLDt OOTrespendent
BALTINoRR, Sept. 27.-Political matters are
now considerably active. The Republicans are
In fine spirits, and determined, though working
against odds, TO do all IN their power towards
bringing out the vote. There are no longer any
differences or disputatiens in the party. They
will work together with Unprecedented har-
mony. The conservatives, who a year ago
united with the Democracy, have nearly all GENE
back, and brought with them many fresh recruit,
from that party. Whatever strength there NAV
be i'll unity, it is now with them. There Is also
a determination TO bring out every voter, When
the day OF election comes, il we mistake not.
eur friends in other States will be surprised TO
see how we'll Maryland has done; no nobly
she has sustained our great military chieltain.
If Democrats wish to save their money or keen
from losing, they had better not expect too
high majority for Mr.. Seymour in this old
Commonwealth. We hope to poll at least forty
thousand votes for Grant, if not more. It is
amazing and almost melancholy to observe ho W
choptalen Democrats have become.
The best informed of them do not hesitate in
concedng Republican triumph at the coming
Presioental election. Name has taken the
vim out of them. The truth is, they are
thoroughly demoralZed. They see their errors
when too late. Affiliating with, and catering
Va
II Wade Hampton and q lew more such were
to come here and repeat their speeches. even
Baltimore, SJ Cophantic as she has been In toady-
ing to secessionsm and traitors, would give q
Republican majority. AS it is, the vote pro-
misses to be comparatively close. Admiral
Semmes, the Re Del pirate, is now here
arranging TO publish his book. II be could be
induced to appear in pubic and make Few
treasopable speeches, it would h0lp vastly to cut
down the Democratic majority. In all my life
have never seen party so completely dumb
founded ana hopeless as are the Democrats in
this latitude. They have really ceased to brag
and are caving in like whipped spaniels. To
make the matter worse they are divided and
quarrelhng among themselves, with significant
indications upon the part OF many to unite with
the Republicans. Chlyalry has killed them, and
theiI Kindness to it has been ike the farmers
viper. -,
Sta'es, after being in session a week, finally ad-
joprned yesterday, agreeing to held its next
annual meeting IN San Francisco, and accept
the $40, O03 prodered for so dong. 1t was la
noble body of men, comparing we'll In point Of
Intelligence, Tespeclaoillty, etc., even with the
Congress of the United Sales. The delegates
were highly pleased With their visit to our city
There Will be large representation Of our
Boys in Blue, or soldiers and sailors at the
grand jubilee in Philadelphia. Toe old war and
Grant spirit is up amongst them TO high water
mark. 1t is rare thing here to find soldier
or sailor who says he is going to vote for
Seymour. Those who once had thought of it
long since abandoned the idea. They say they
a. to go in opposition to him who led them to
victory and saved the country from being ruled
by treason and traitors.
We have had dull, cloudy, rainy, disagreeable
weather for several days. 1t still threatens
rain. Business is improving. Tell your Key
stone boys that from this time 10 the election
our Maryland Republicans will leave no stone
untuIned towards securing Grant large vote.
