Thursday Morning, October 17. ?872. For President of the Unitea\8tates, HORACE UllEKLEY, of New York. For Viae-President n. o a ATZ DUO WM, or nmoan. Tile Situation. There is no nae to deny the faot that the Liberal movement baa met a eerioua eheok in Pennsylvania. We had strong hopes of carrying the State, and with Buckalow against suoh a man as Hart? raa ft, wo ought to have carried it. Its loss is a heavy rebuff undoubtedly, bat Still there is no causo for despondonoy. Wo have Indiana, end with that State, Greeley bas plainly the inside track for the Presidency. In Ohio, the most astounding gains were made by the Libe? rals, for the Radical majority whioh in 1868 footed np 41,000, has been reduoed to 10,000, a falling off of 31,000. ?U we need how is to heep oar lines un? broken and the spirits of the people from flagging. We are glad to note that the tone of the Conservativo presa is invariably encouraging. Not one that we have yet coen has turned tail, bat, like good soldiers, they seem but the more determined in their efforts by their first repulso. The Liberal movement, founded in justice and right, is alone capable of gratifying the crowning desire of the country-whioh is reconciliation-and must finally prevail. Sectionalism on either Bide, North and South, is being looked upon with increasing disfavor from day to day. It ie bound, eventu? ally, to give way before the more patri? otic, more politic and better principle of genuine reunion and friendship. The South made a grand step .forward in the acceptance Of'Horace Greeley, and the. hearty, universal endorsement our peo? ple have given bim Bhows, bow earnest and. sincere, they, are in their desire to shake hands-to _ let .by-genes be by? gones, and to join with i good men from all parta of the country in': ptoinoting our common intereatsy.and preserving, in their purity, our republican institu? tions. Thia overture of para cannot fail to evoke a reciprocal foaling at the North. The"] antipathy of certain of the North? eastern States cannot bp .very readily moderated, but in the West, and in those communities whoro the population is somewhat cosmopolitan, and not made np entirely of puritanical New England? ers, who nan never forgive us for the in? juries they have heaped upon ns, we are bound to meet with friendly sympathy. As matters now stand, with 123 South? ern votes nearly certain for Greeley, and with the great States of New York in the North and Indiana and Missouri in the West on our side, we have u firm basis for oar hope of ultimate BUCOOS?. Grant could not but Greeley oan afford to lose Pennsylvania. The greatest da? mage it will do the oauee of reunion and reconciliation is the discouragement to the rank and file of the Liberals and De? mocrat. If we present a bold front and "keep the cow-hide dry" until the 5th of November, and then throw for? ward our forces in solid phalanx, the day ia ours, the South is redeemed, and the country reunited. MOUE RADICAL SLANDERS.-The Geor? gia scalawags and carpet-baggers still ontinue their howls to Grant for martial law and military rule in this State. Gen. Grant's organ, the New York Times, publishes daily its column ol "Ku Klux- outrages" and "rebel mur? ders" from Georgia. The slander mill, whioh two years ago was run in Atlanta by Bullock's Private Secretary, Eugene Davis, now seems, to be in operation all over the State, and the telegraph wire? bond beneath their daily bardens ol falsehoods. In the Times, of the 8th instant, we find a letter from Savannah, a column in length, whioh gives a har? rowing account of rebel atrocities all over the State. The writer begs that o regiment of United States soldiers be sent here for the Presidential election. He says in one portion of his letter: "This whole State is nuder the con? trol of the Kn Klux organization. Only a day or two ago, in Emanuel County, a Ko Klux Who had been apprehended by She United, States.Marshal was rescued from his' custody -chile waiting at Sta? tion No. 9>?,<Central Railroad, by a band of about fifty m?u. "It is most important thatsomo meana for protection be provided to ' aid us in carrying on thia unequal fight, for our lives almost. ..' . ..,,, Tho. D?mocratie papers in Savannah have proven the falsity of the charges made against the good men of that aity. We are convinced that the statement about Emanuel County ia equally un* true. Neither in Augusta or Savannah botn in daily. railway communication with that point-has anything been heard of this terrible engagement at No. 9J?, between an United States Marshal and a "band of fifty mon." But thc Radicals caro not how monstrous the un? truth, if it answers their purpose. Wbal they wish is, to have the State over? awed by Grant's bayoneta next Novem? ber, at?o to accomplish this, they cart not bow many slanders they publish tc tho world.-Augusta Chronicle, A man of soraples-An apothecary. ^Washington Corresponde (icc. WASHINGTON, October 14, 1872. To TUB EDITOK OF THE PHCENIX: Ever since tho State eleotioos wbiob esme off ou the 8t\x inst., I have availed myself of every opportunity to learn the opi? nions of the leading men of both par? ties on the "situation," and moro espe? cially to eliseo vor the probable tao tica of the Grantites daring the remaining few weeks of the campaign. As regards the supporters of Greeley and Brown, I find that the more intelli? gent and better informed they are, the less discouraged they also are. The very best and wisest men of the Democratic party-those who" have sustained the Cincinnati and Baltimore nominations most ably and- beartily by voice, pea and money-telegraph and write encourag? ingly to tho Congressional Committeo from all parts of the country, counseling increased activity, and ezpressiug confi? dence ia the election of Horace Greeley in November. And so do the lending Liberal Republicans. Oa the other hand, the Grant loaders are mighty se? rious when they get together in secret oonolave, although they have agreed to assume, complacently and as a matter of course, that the late eleotioos have vir? tually settled the Presidential qaestion, and that the vote in No vornbor will be a mere matter of form. This, ot coarse, for the treble purpose of encouraging their own rank and file, discouraging the Liberals,, and entioing to the stand? ard of the party of hate, wveng?faud general discord, the timid, the wavering, the ignorant," and every unprincipled scoundrel in the land, who, regardless of his own convictions,- if he have any, makes a point of always voting for the most probably successful candidate. Let me relate a little incident which will serve to il lastrate the critical posi? tion of the Grantites, as viewed and de? tailed by one of their strongest men: Ooo day lust week, aa I wua'aitting writ? ing all alone Tri ? ??mi-priyate parlor of a hotel, some. ats. or seven: men sauntered in, one after ^he other, at short inter? vals, all of who m I recognized aa leading Administration men and personal friends of Grunt-men who originate campaign measures for the success of their party, superintend their ^exooation,. raiao and distribute fonds, &o.,.&c. Their meet? ing .was i purely, accidental ; but - : as they all know each other, a convoMtition soon sprang Up on the all-engrossing topic of tho day-the political "situation." Shortly, they begun to speak unre? servedly, so that I was o on li dent they took it for granted I was in sympathy with thom) each thinking, I pr?same, that ono or r?qre of thia o tuera knew mo. Liasaur? y on I reit 'somewhat ill at ease, but as; I bad neither forced myself among them nor stolen in-they having rather intruded on mo-and as it so hap? pened that my positron in tho room, was such that I. could .not leave it without attracting general attention, I concluded to remain and take the few notes, from which I condense the following opinion of a leading Grant .mau on Greeley's prospects, "Now, gentlemen," said the speaker, who had been mach deferred to during a running desultory interchange of views of some twenty minutes, and was now asked to give the coterie his real opipion, as among friends, and without any re? serve whatever, on the respective pros? pects of the two candidates for the Pro sidoney-"Now, gentlemen," said he, "let us look at what I conceive to be a few undeniable facts, which it will not be wise for Republicans to ignore, in decid? ing upon the strategy to be pursued by the party during the remainder of the campaign. Listen to the figures, aud I think you will arrive, however reluctant? ly, at the conclusions to which I have been forced by them-that we can't afford to lose a single point io the game. If we do, we're gone. Wo must not re? lax an effort. We must work up to the very last hoar. Oar men must be made to understand that. In our efforts to discourage the Greeley men by assuming to be invincible, we must cause some of them to desert their standard and take no further part in the contest, and a fow of them to join oar ranks; but there is reason to believe that these defections will be inconsiderable. Let us not rely upon them. Xiet ns rather take care that this bragging of ours doe? not have the effect of making the Republican masses I over-confident, and, consequently, less aotive and watchful than they have hith I erto been, and still ought to be. Gen? tlemen, let us henceforth base bar hopes and oar vaticinations upon calculations deduced from a calm .survey of the . ligures. "We Republicans appear to forgot j entirely that Greeley is morally oertain , of the electoral votes of all tho States Sooth of Mason and Dixon's line but two-South Carolina and Mississippi. Thia will givo him : Alabama, 10 electoral votes; Arkansas, 6; Delaware, 3;Florida, 4; Georgin, ll; Kentucky, 12; Louisiana, 8; Maryland, 8; Missouri, 15; North Ca? rolina, 10; Tennessee, 12; Texas, 8; Vir? ginia, ll; West Virginia, 5; total (14 States) 123. "If there over was any doubt of Gree? ley's getting the votes of the above Southern States, there can ba none noir. The Georgia eleotion has settled that question, ia my mind, beyond a doubt, lt is no use to tell me we carried North Carolina in August. We spent a large amount of money there, and inundated i the Stnto with speakers who cannot again be spared to go there; and, after . all, our majority was insignificant. Bo sides, sinoe the August eleotion some ol , the most active and influential mea in the State, who were with us then, have I gone over to the enemy with their per , sonal friends and politioul adherents. . Now, 123 votes from tho Sooth is a fear j fal number for Greeley to start in upon . against ns, when the more than possible . chances of his getting the 61 additional , votes necessary to elect him are con , sidered. "I think we may safely claim foi Grant every State which I have not con? ceded to Greeley, in the list I have just read, except the seven following, whioh ] are measurably doubtful: "California, 6 electoral vote?; Connec? tion!,- 6;, -Indiana, 15; Nevada, 8; New Hampshire, '. 6; New Jersey, 9; New York, 35;. total, 79. "Now, gentlemen, I put it you can? didly, whether Greeley'a chancea of get? ting 61 of these 79 votes are not fair are they not more than fair? Is he not certain to get them, unless we work even harder than we have hitherto worked? New York and New Jersey were generally conceded to hjm before we got "intoxicated ovor 'the Pennsylva? nia election! and I "im.assured that Hen? dricks, who hasijuBt defeated us in Indi? ana, is going -to stump his H ta to, and throw the whole weight of his personal iufluenoe, whioh hos been largely in? creased by the prestige of his late suc? cess, ia favor of Horace Greeley. New York, New Jersey and Indiana would give Greeley 59 of the Cl votes necessary to elect him. For the other two votes, he would have to rely upon California, Connecticut, New Hampshire or Nevada. I have not kept the ran of politics in the latter State, but of the three others I should say that. Conneotiout, judging from the recent elections in that State, will certainly go for Greeley in Novem* ber, unless we leave off bragging and go to work; and that California and New Hampshire will each give its vote to the party that works hardest to obtaiu it." At this point, the speaker was inter? rupted by the entrance of three or four j Republican magnates who had just ar? rived from the late battle-fields in Penn sylvia; and, during the "noise and con? fusion" which ensue j, I picked up my noto book .and slipped away unobserved. A. F. B. ADDRESS OF TUB NATIONAL DEMO ORiTio COMMITTEE TO THE PEOPIIE OP THE UNITED STATES.-The October elections are over. They enable us to form a tolerably aoourate idea of the true politi? cal situation of the oountry. lu Georgia, wo have to recount a vic? tory for the Liberal ticket so unexam? pled as to take her out of the list of doubtful States, and practically to pro? nounce in advance tho decision of at least 125 votes in the electoral college. To this number, it is only necessary to add sixty votes to elect Greeley and Brown. In Pennsylvania, tho distinguished Chairman, of the Libera) Committee has eloquently characterized'the methods by which the .result of the election there waa accomplished. We commend bis statement to tho thoughtful attention of the country. In Ohio, despite most unprecedented gains for the Liberal-Democratic ticket, tho Grant managers have carried the election by a reduced majority, having brought to the polia their entire reserve vote. Had oar Demooratio friends in certain localities of that great common? wealth shown the same earnestness and activity, and enabled aa like our enemies to record our entire strength, they would now be exulting over a brilliant victory. lu Indiana, the Democratic and Liberal forces have achieved a most important success over Pennsylvania tactics moat unscrupulously employed by the Administration and its allies, showing thus that a free people, when aroused, know their rights and dare ' maintain them. Indiana has fairly de? monstrated that abe can neither be "bought nor bullied." The moral of those results ia that victory is still in plain view of our national ticket, and that energy and courage will assure it. That victory mast be won. If we mean to preserve free institntiobs on this con? tinent, we must assure it. The event in Pennsylvania, on Tues? day last, when considered in its causea, is the moat appalling political catastro? phe that has ever taken place in this country. Should the system throngh whioh thia catastrophe was brought about be condoned by the people and foisted on the other States, it seals the doom of freedom in America. A sad contrast it ia, surely, that the city is whioh our republic was born, amid the anthems of a free people, should now be tho first to toll the knell of its liberties. It is for the free, unbought peoplo of all tho States to calmly review the fearful crime against suffrage in Pennsylvania, and to decide whether it shall be repeat? ed within their own borders. For the first time the system of free government and the sanctity of tho bal? lot are really on trial in the United States. From thia hour forward the preservation of tho franchise in its in? tegrity dwarfs all other issues. Let our friends iu each of tho States catch inspiration from the heroic con? duct of our fellow-citizens in Georgia and in Indiana; and from now till No? vember let their struggle be manful and unoeasiog for liberty and an untainted ballot-box, for reform and an honest ad? ministration of tho Government. AUGUSTUS SCHELL, Chairman National Demooratio Commit tee. FIRE AT FLORENCE.-On Friday, Mu 11th instant, the steam ginning ea tab liahment of James Chose, at Florenoe, ,' waa destroyed by fire, together witt 30,000 pounds of seed cotton.

THE OHIO LID ER A LS UNDAUNTED.-The Democratic State Executive Committee ol Ohio bas issued the following address: To THE DEMOCRACY OF OHIO: The re? sult of last Tuesday's election shows that Ohio was lost by'tho failure tp poll the usual Democratic vote. Mortifying as is the fact, justice to the Liberal Re? publicans and aa earnest desire to re? trieve the misfortune require us to unite in our ohief towns. Tho Liberal strength exceeded our most sanguine estimate, and in tho country it fell short pf the aggregate, vote of Liberals in the city and- country who voted our State ticket. Thisr addad to our Demooratio vote of 1863,. would have ovoroome tho Grant majority at that election and the Democratic vote combined, nnd given us the victory. Can wo repair the mischief? Wo can. Four-fifths of the Democrats who stayed at home last Tuesday can be induced to vote for Greeley in Novem? ber. Those who will absolutely refuse to go to the polls will be counterbalanced in numbers by those Republicans who went against us last Tuesday, but will voto for Greeley. We have only to poll our usual Demooratio vote to snatch from defeat a glorious victory. Liberals stretch forth the hand; shall we refuse to take it? Th? prostrate and plundered South oriesoot for help; shall webe deaf to their appeals? By Greeley's eleotion, we can restore prosperity and good go? vernment to the Soatb, kind feeling to the now hostile sections, honor and honesty to the civil service, respect for the Constitution and laws to the Na? tional Administration. Gould we expect more with Grant in the Presidency? Gould ff?re expect tho oo-operatiou in Congress, whioh Greeley would com? mand? Are patriotio Democrats willing to lose all the beneficent results of a victory, oat of personal hostility to Greeley or disgraceful lethargy? Are Ohio Democrats ready to let our great and proud State become debauohed and hopelessly subjugated, like Pennsylvania, by hordes of mercenaries, paid by publio plunder? Democrats, your union with the Liberals in Ohio has not been fruit? less. It bas given Hamilton County by aear 6,000 majority, whioh secures tho Constitutional Convention and the Le? gislature, and a United States Senator. Should both Ohio and Pennsylvania go for Grant, the chances are still in favor of Greeley's election. If Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Indiana are added to those border and Southern States which are certain for Greeley, this will give him a clear majority. We have already, by a glorious and aggressive fight, foroed the Grant party to its knees, und can conquer it in November. Fel? low-Democrats, work till November, heartily and hopefully. The Liberals will take care of themselves. Let tho Democratic County Committees get lists of those Democrats in the cities and in the townships who failed to vote last Tuesday, and direct their efforts to them. Bring out this vanguard vote, aud the fight is won in Ohio and the Grant Re? publicans beaten. The Liberal Republican Committee has issued the following address: The smoke of Tuesday's battle has cleared away, so that we are now able to report fully results. We have met au army of veterans, flushed with years ol victory, and supplied to repletion with all the weapons that a party in power could furnish, with all the resources of a great Government at command, and yet in our first onset victory crowns out banners. It has been conoeded upon all hands that the IOBB to Grant in October of either of the three great central States then voting would be victory for Greeley in November. Indiana is ours, and Ohio can be made ours, and it only remains now to galber promptly thc fruits of viotory. Ohio has done nobly. Grant's majority of 40,000 in 1868 baf i been ont down to a beggarly 10,000 ot lii.OOO'npon the first onset. We have ; carried eight members of Congress oui . of twenty-one-a clear gain of three i from the stronghold of the enemy, and , in spite of the most outrageous district? ing bill ever passed by a Legislature tc i gerry mander a State. Greeley and Browr i aro 20,000 votes stronger in Ohio to-daj than any mau upon our State ticket. ! and hence, if we do our duty, the State I can be oarried like a whirlwind ia No , vember. That our success on Tuesday . is not a delusion, bat real and Bubstau tial, is evident by comparison with an] i vote polled during the past ten years . and hence we have every reason to mov? 1 forward with confidence and hope to th? i final conflict in November. Even with . out Ohio in November, the eleotion o Greeley and Brown is substantially as i sured. ' A oarpet-bag oandidate for office ii ' Mississippi, having threatened to prose ' onto every newspaper in tho State whict I has published a story of his having * stolen a horse, the Brandon Republicen says: We started the story.

THE ELECTION.-The eleotion passed off very quietly in this city, yesterday. lu fact, we are informed that many voters took naps on grassy plats ia the neighborhood of some of the polls. Considerable interest was manifested by all parties, and the Tomlinson party was remarkably active. They feel quite con? fident of their : success. Their greatest hopes are outside of Richland County, though they have no doubt received a heavy vote in this County. We are un? able to give onr readers tho result of the election in this city in this morning's issno, as at the hour we go to press the indications are that it will be about day? light before the bail?te are counted; owing to the great number of candidates voted for-twenty-three on each ticket.
