Correspondence of the Telegraph Political matters—A free negro understand ing of the elective franchise —Great Repub lican torch light Wide-Awake procession— A great deal of oil and lampblack and little enthusiasm—An immense Union meeting. New York, Oct. 6, 1860. Dear Sir: — The everlasting nigger continues to be the all absorbing subject of political strife, argument and discussion as the day of election approaches in this city, it is the nigger the day in and the day out; the Republicans, like quack doctors who keep their remedies constantly be fore the public in large capitals until their im pression is indelibly stamped on your brain— suspend their banners over almost every thor oughfare, imposing torch light processions are gotten up by sending to the hotbeds of aboli tionism in the Eastern States for reinforcements to swell their ranks. Speakers are hired to hold forth almost nightly, and every other ap pliance which can be devised is brought into requisition to raise a little enthusiasm for Sain bo. One would suppose that Sainbo would be present on all occasions to receive the homage which is so lavishly bestowed by his white brethren, but on the contrary he seldom makes his appearance, and why it cannot be accounted ibr unless it be because he is not invited, as ‘‘distance lends enchantment to the view.” We are well aware that Sambo is modest and much more so than many of his white brother Sam bos, as none but the lower class of darkies will intrude where they are aot wanted, andjudging from the following conversation heard by the writer not long since, he is not yet aware of the great benefits he will receive should the repub licans succeed in carrying their favorite measure —negro sutf’erage —in the legislature the corn ing winter. Whiteman —Well, Sam, how are you getting along ? Sam—*‘Oh massa, dese is berry hard times, dredful hard times, no wood to saw, no white washing, no nothing to get bread for poor nig ger. Massa, dare is some tings I does under stand and a great many tings 1 does not under stand. 1 does not understand the bylophesy of how it is dat the more blusterfication de white folks makes about de nigger de more he gets no wood to saw or udder jobs. 1 does not under stand how it is dat massa Deacon Hogsey prays so loud in the prayer meetin, for de freedom ob de nigger and den give an Irishman three shil lings a load for sawin his wood, when I offers to saw it for two shillins a load; day say massa Deacon Hogsey spects to go to Washinton. I does not understand how it is dat parson Chee ver preaches so much bout elemvating de col ored man and saving his soul when he has to take a seat way in de corner ob de meeting house, and when he elemvates himself on de parsons front stoop an rings de bell—servant gal conies to door and tells him to lowervate himself down into de basement; why can’t de parson tell de nigger where to find de basement door to heaben and de back seat arter he gits inside. I does not understand de bylophesy of how it is dat de abolitionists improve de condi tion ob de nigger when da steel him from old and send him to Canada and let de poor debit starve and freeze. I does not under stand how it is dat when de nigger and dutch man is picked up in de streets jist afore lection and taken to de toombs for gettin toxicated, dat the Judge, who said in meetin de nigger was jist as g<x)d as de witeman, shuts up de nigger and de dutchman is let go. 1 does not under stand de bylophesy ob how it is dat massa John Wamkins who habs de street cleaning apartment allars hires Dutchmen and Irishmen to sweep de streets, and work half ob de time when de boss is away, when de nigger will work cheaper and work all de time widout de boss standin an lookin on. Massa Wamkins said dat de nigger was as good as de Irishman or de Dutchman and ort to hab de electic franchise. I does not understand how it is dat jist afore lection I ollars see de gemman ivhat reads de resomlutions in de anta-slavery meetin ask a : dirty whiteman to take somethin to drink but neber axes de nigger; he said too dat he was for giving de nigger de electic franchise, and dat he was up for de legislator.” Whiteman—"The elective franchise is the great paladium of our liberty, and we intend at the next session of the legislature to obtain the right of sufferage for the colored people of our State, that this great blessing may be ex tended to them as well as to the white people, and for it you will be indebted to the Republi can Party.” Sam—“ Yes, Massa, but I does not under stand de bylophesy of how dat great pendlum i ob liberty give de Irishman and dutchman plen ty ob work, an whisky just afore lection, when de poor nigger habs to go hungry cause he can’t git no work, dats what I does not zactly comprehend ; if its de right of i.f’.ring you is going to git for de nigger, we got nuff ob dat now, an de nearer it gits to lection de more we hab ob it. No, Massa, dat blessing from pub lican, I recons de nigger would be better off widout it.” ’ On Thursday evening last, th<- great and would be impressive Republican Wide-Awake procession came off according to programme in some respects, but in others, it tell far short of what had been so extensively advertised, posted, and published far and near. Tremen dous preparations were set on foot—large amounts of money expended to make one of the greatest demonstrations ever witnessed in this country. Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and the rural districts were levied upon to send Wide-Awake clubs, and the num ber of men which would join in the procession, was estimated by the Republican journals, va rying from thirty to fifty thousand, and every man with a torch on the end of a pole. This is what teas to come off. Now, what did come off. I give the facts as derived from republican statements, and others, which are reliable, with my own observation. The number of the pro cession instead of being from thirty to fifty , thousand, was less than eleven thousand, and J nearly five thousand of those were from other i Mates and the rural districts; but even this number, all with lighted torches, made a splen ; did display, well worth a days’ journey to wit ness. This procession also presented some cu rious features, and which may perhaps be con ! sidered appropriate to the principles and aims MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 15, 1860. of many of the Republicans; one was the mili tary feature—the head of the procession being composed of a body of men drawing a cannon, and bearing a standard reading, “Twentieth Ward Artillery”—another feature was an imi tation of French Jacobineism, a car drawn by | four horses gaudily decorated, in which was seated two females, one representing the French goddess of liberty, and the other costumed in the emblems and national colors of France.— Another car in the ranks of this club, contained a French glee-club, who gave us the Marsel laise, and the song “La Republican,” to the air of “Chantedes” Girodins; this club is com posed of French Red Republicans, and call themselves the “Lafayette Club.” Another feature was the absence of enthusiasm, with the exception of the head quarters of the clubs along the route where Republicans were gath ered; cheering was seldom heard, although the streets through which the procession pass ed were crowded with people who came to wit ness the spectacle, and this significant fact showed their weakness in this city. Those who had doubts with respect, to this city being true to the Union, have them no longer; the Em pire City will show that sectionalism and dis unionism can get no foothold within her bor ders. October 9th. Last evening another great Union Meeting took place at the Cooper Institute to endorse the Union electoral ticket as completed. The opponents of the Union men are compelled to admit that this was one of the largest, if not the largest, and most enthusiastic meetings which ever took place in this city, and so little had it been published, and that witiiin a short space of time, that a large portion of our popu lation were not aware of what was taking place until the streets were thronged by processions with torch lights and banners, their shouts and cheers, bands of music, firing of cannon, whizzing of rockets, &c., as they marched through the streets leading to the large area in front of the Institute, soon made it known that the masses were in motion; all classes and all parties, if I except the Republicans, ap peared to come forth spontaneously and rally under the banner of the “Union, the Consti tution and the enforcement of the laws.” The great hall of the Institute was immediately crowded, when the Hon. A. Dix was called to the Chair and addressed the meeting; after which speeches were made by Chas. O’Conner, Esq., Hon. Jas. W. Gerard, Gen. Hiram Wal bridge and others. In front of the building four stands were erected where the meetings were ad dressed by Hiram Ketchum, Win. A. Genet, Hon. J. A. Godfrey, of California, and others. At stand No. 4 a mass meeting of the Germans was held. The vast space bounded by the Cooper Institute, the Bible House, 3d Avenue and Eighth St. was crowded with the masses of our city. The burning of tar barrels, fir ing of cannons, ascension ot rockets, the blaz ing torches of the various clubs, and transpa rencies with their mottoes, intermingled with splendid banners and the flag of the Union, ren dered it a scene which would make any true patriot’s heart leap lor joy. At the close of the meeting the various clubs formed into pro cession and took a circuit of about two miles. As to numbers, the clubs were not so large as those of the Republican Wide Awakes, but as to picturesqueness of appearance they far ex ceeded them, as they mostly carried varigat ed colored lanterns, their uniforms consist ing of oil cloth cloaks and caps, some of the clubs wearing blue, others red, and some white. The enthusiasm exhibited by the throngs in the streets,through which they pass ed, showed that but a small portion of sympa thizers were in the ranks, and the contrast which was observed comparing this with the late Republican procession in that respect, must have been painful to the disunionists to hehold. Very respectfully, C. Baltimore, Oct. 10, 1860. The morning has opened clear and beautiful, and we shall have a fine day for the election which will be one of the most important, so far as the interests of the city are concerned, that has ever been held in Baltimore. The municipal election to-day will decide whether there is a majority of our citizens in favor of peace, order, and an enforcement of the law— whether the work of reform which has been begun, and which has already done so much good, shall be completed by the election of honest capable and pure men, to the publi cofli cers, or whether we shall go back to the days of the slung shot, the pistol, and the knife— whether we shall be rid of the burden of sup porting a worthless set of loafers in the various departments of this government, or supply their places with men of capacity, industry, and moral character. It can hardly be sup posed a possible thing, that the worthy and good men of the city, after the four years ex perience they have had of Plug rule, can by apathy, or neglect, much less by design, permit such a lapse. It is therefore a reasonable con jecture, that the reform ticket for Mayor and Council will be elected to-day by such an over whelming majority, as has never before been witnessed in any previous {honest} election in this city. Such has been the precaution taken by the Police commissioners and Marshall, that up to this morning the city has been entirely free from the noisy roistering of drunken Rowdies, which has for years past characterized the eve of an election. And as the drinking houses are to be closed under a heavy penalty, and the districts have been subdivided into small elec tion precincts and a large number of extra Po licemen have been sworn in, but little appre hension is felt of disturbance, or hindrance to voters. The election will no doubt be a fair one. and the lines will be plainly drawn be tween the number of those who have the peace and name of the city at heart, and of those who have not. Several of the noted ruffian club houses which have heretofore been used as arsenals for arms, have by order of the com missioners been searched, and several muskets, pistols, and other deadly weapons, in consider able numbers taken therefrom. The Plug or gan, as in duty bound, sets up a miserable I howl, at this invasion of the ruffian strong holds, and groans at the extraction of the stings, from the murderous wreches, who have used them so disastrously to our liberties, and j the city’s prosperity. The keepers of cribs, j coops, club houses, and murderous dens, w’here | murders, robberies, and every species of villainy have been perpetrated, and where a man’s life, would he taken for the fraction of a dollars have been held up as the subject of harsh and I oppressive treatment, in having their premises • searched, and the stolen arms of the United ' States taken therefrom. By the vigilance of the Marshal, however, these dens of death, and I their murderous inmates, have been rendered ' harmless, and maugre all the miserable and rashy slang of the Press, which has lived, moved ) and had its being from their support, they will from this day out be put under the heel of justice and decency. 11. P. S.—The returns from Pennsylvaaia show large gains for the Republican party, and there is every probability of their carrying the State. ! The Union loving Bell and Everett men have out Herod Herod in their rejoicing at the glori ous result, and roll it as a sweet morsel under their tongues.

[Special Despatch to the Charleston Mercury.] Seward Foreshadows the Presidential Policy of Black Republicans—Lincoln to Issue an Ad dress— Weakness of Douglas at the Forth— The Excitement in the Capital, etc.., etc. Wash notox, October 11 —Wm. H. Seward has declared that Lincoln will, if elected to the Presidential chair, immediately issue an address to the people of the United States, setting forth his views of public policy, more especially in re lation to the institutions of the South. In this way Lincoln hopes to quiet the fears of the South, and to prevent the secession of a single State. The Weakness of Douglas.—The Douglas tnen here are terribly discouraged at the result of the election in Pennsylvania and Ohio. All hope has now deserted them, and it is generally conceded that Lincoln will be elected by the people in November. Senator Green, of Mis souri, and M igfall, of Texas, have just arrived here: and both are confident that their respective States will cast their electonal vote for Breckin ridge. The greatest excitement prevails here, owing to the Black Republican triumph in Pennsylva nia. The Lincoln men of this city are to have a grand demonstration in honor of their victory in Pennsylvania, which they consider decisive, Should the turn-out be guilty of any breach of decorum, serious difficulties are anticipated. A Bell Victory in Spalding County.—The Griffin Democrat of the 11th says : As we go to press, we learn that a sufficient number of Precincts have been heard from to render it quite certain that Ferrill, (Bell,) has beaten Roberts, (Breckinridge,) by a small ma jority, for the State Senate. To Kill Cockroaches.—Make a strong de coction of poke root. When the strength is well extracted, remove the root, mix the liquor with molasses, and spread it on large platters in the places they frequent. Ihey may thus be slain by thousands. The boded routs Wrd on your closet shelves, will assist in keeping these troublesome visitors away. > Abolitionist Arrested.
