THE GERMAN VoTE.-There is
every indication that the Germans of
this city will cast larger vote for
Grant and Dix than they have ever
thrown for any Republican ticket. In
1868 there were about seven thousand
names enrolled on the list of the q erman
Republicans ward clubs. Upwards Of
fourteen thousand have been enrolled
thus far in the present campaign, and
the average daily accession is about four
hundred while the German Greeley
and Brown clubs make but little head
way, and have obtained but about six
thousand names up to the present time.
AS a general thing, the German Gree
ley meetings are neither we'll attended
nor enthusiastic, while the reverse is
the case with those Of their opponents.
Nothing showed this more clearly than
the beggarly attendance at the German
stand during the recent Greeley demon
stration on Fourth street. There ere
hardly fifty German listeners present,
and the managers deemed itprudent to
station an Irish Sharpshooters company
round the stand SO as to make the empty
place less marked, Moreover, most OF
the German leaders of the Cincinnati
movement have turned their backs upon
the Greeley party, and only few lesser
lights, such as 6 laubensklee, Clerks and
Kessler, remain.
There are altogether about thirty live
thousand German voters in New York.
The best informed German politicians
believe that General Grant wllrreceive
fully twenty thousand of these that
five thousand following the advice OF
the .Stuuts Ze,tung, will abstain from
voting, and that if Greeley gets the
remaining ten thousand he will do well
Another significant indication of the
direction in which the wind is blowing
among the Germans of New York is
the fact that the widely circulated New
Yorker Tagenachrichten (the German
edition # Ben Woods Evening News,
which, at The beginning of the campaign
was an enthusiastic Greeley organ, has
become ominously moderate; so that
Greeley has now but one German organ
left-the New Y ork Journal, which last
year defended the Tammany thieves to
the end, and whose circulation since
then has been very limited. On the
other hand the Oestliche Post and the
the New Yorker Democrat are rapidly
gaining in circuiation.-N. Y E0en-

An accident occurred OH the line OF
the ST. Paul Railway, half mile west
of Wauwatosa, at half past 7 Sunday

of the Western Union Railway, bound

and eight or ten cars, loaded with

the scene of the accident were sur
prlsed that no lives were lost in view OF
he manner in which the cars were
piled up.

LAST week the little state of Della
ware held an election for Assessors and
Inspectors of election, and the demo
Gratis succeeded in electing their candi-
dates by 50 minority. Last year at a
similar election the democratic candi-
dates were successful by nearly 1000
majority. The Greeley tidal wave
seems to be moving in the wrong d.
rection in Delaware, and the sta tie may
be set down as certain for Grant in
November.

WE should be very glad to publish
the most able speech of Senator Car
penter, at Warren, I'll, Sept. 28th, 1872

columns of the Inter- Ocean of Sept.

Of the campaign, and is worthy Of the

1t is strange that any honest, true

PArERNAL INrs1Ncr.-The pater-

developement than in the following
sent to us from Faribault, Minnesota,
by party who calls himself" one of
the class styled drummers, gorillas,
commercial tourists. missionaries, etc.
AS the cars stopped at a small town
in Minnesota, an honest looking Ger
man and family came on board the
train. The family consisted of
numerous bundles, wife, and a guam
tity of children Of assorted sizes from
babe in the arms up to boy of twelve.
The German, after slowing his bundles
in the forward seats of the smoking
car, proceeded to place his wife and
offspring near them. This accom-
plished, he seated himself for assmoke.
All at once as the signal whistled for
starting, he dashed out of the car into
the station, returning with another
child in his arms that had been asleep,
barely catching the train before it
moved. AS he passed one of the pass

The i essen of the Great Fire.

The two great fires, that at Chicago and
Boston, teach lesson that should have results
IN bringing about better system of dealing with
hres and q safer mode Of constructing buildings
In cities. il has been demonstrated that stone
walls are even more dangerous than wood as the
heated parts expand and crumble and throw
down the entire structure; that brick is the near
est hre-prOOf material available; that the m an
sard roofs As they constructed in this country,
mainly fwOOd, and with sheathings OF ighly in
hammable material, are perfect "tinder- boxes"
that our present fire apparatus is not capable of
dealing vi Il fires On high mansard roofs; that
the water thrown fails 10 reach the highest
points IN sufficient volume TO effect anything
servicesble, but absolutely does damage as It'll
well known that a spTinkling Of water serves
Only 10 add fuel (oNygen) TO the flames. The
inventive minds OF the country should be
aPI He'd % the task OF devising some means of
taking the engine pipes up TO 4 height, through
tie aid Of movable towers or something of the
scrt so a. to pour a volume OF water directly
uTOn the flames. At present, as above stated,
the water either goes over the burning house;
falls on it only in a sprinkle that adds force to
the flames; Or falls short, altogether.
An ingenious invention made by Chief Engi-
neer Crcnin. of our Fire Department, deserves
attention in this direction, and may perhaps
supply the great need. 1t consists of Y shaped
tube, the branches of which are screwed upon
two engines, and both engines work through
one vent with very nearly double power. This
invention was tested, it will be remembered, be-
fore the japanese embassy at the Arlington
Hotel, and threw water in volume over that
building, which Is five stories high, suruounted
by mansard roof. 1t Boston, at the very start
of the FIRE, the fremen were unable to reach the
flames on the roofs of the taller buildings, and
the FIRE leapt from one roof to another, and
soon got irrepressible Roadway.
Washington city has more reason than ever to
congratulate itself on the great width Of its
streets, which not only msse it the best venti.
lated city in the country or the world, but
which also renders it the least liable to suffer
widespread connagrstion such as has visited
Boston and Chicago.
