The latest dispatches from the elections on Tuesday last, indicate the triumph of the Re publican party in all the four States Penn sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Nebraska. In Pennsylvania, the Democrats gain two Con gressmen, giving them 8 to th® Republicans 15, and ono District is doubtful. In Ohio, the Democrats olect six Congress men, being a gain of three ; while the Repub licans still havo thirteen. In Indiana, the Democrats elect two, to the Republicans nine. Republicans elect their entire State tickets in each of these States, and also in Nebraska. These results have not been in consequence of any neglect of duty on tho part of the De mocracy ; all that energy and zeal could ac complish was done, but in vain. A\ ell, tho consciousness of duty done will bo some palli ation to the bitterness of defeat. Death of 11011. Howell Cobb. The country was startled on last Friday, the 9th inst., by tho telegraphic announcement of tho sudden death of this great man, whoso name and memory aro inseparably interwoven with the history of Georgia, who was stricken down by the resistless Destroyer almost with out warning, at tho hotel at which he was stopping, in New York, on the morning of that day. Any eulogy would be superfluous, even wore our pen capable of inditing it, for not to know tho honors which encircled his illustrious name, is ignorance inexcusable for a Georgian. The following summary of prominent points in his life, is taken from Lanman's work : “Cobb, llowell.—lie was torn at Cherry Hill in Jefferson county, Georgia, September 7,1815. AVhen a child, his father removed to Athens, Georgia, where he has since resided. lie grad uated at Franklin College in 1834 ; he studied law, and was admitted to the bar in 1836; in 1837 be received the appoitment Solicitor General of the Western Circuit, which he held four years, and he was elected a Representative in Congress in 184*2, having been re-elected in 1844, 1846 and 1848 and during his latter term he was elected Speaker. On his retirement from Congress he was chosen Governor of Geor gia. In 1855 he was again elected to Congress, and on tho accession of Mr, Buchanan to the Presidency Governor Cobb went into his Cab inet as Secretary of the Treasury, lie took a prominent part in tho rebellion of 1861, and was a member of the so-called Confederate Congress, aud a Brigadier General.” The death of such a man is, at any time, a public calamity ; but at such a time as the present, to lose the counsels of so brilliant a mind is cause r or mourning to every household in our oppressed South. May tho Spirit of llim who has bereft our people in His inscru table providence, comfort the hearts He has wounded, and sanctify the affliction to their good, while in mercy He shall turn away the evils which impend over our devoted land 1 AY hat a Democratic Administration will do. As an inducement to tho many thousands of Radicals who are troubled because of tbc pros tration of industries occasioned by a continu ance of Jacobin policy in the government of the country, to vote for Democracy, the Albany Argus says a Democratic Administration will reduce the expenses of the Government §IOO, 000,000 a year below what it has been each year for the past three years, and apply $50,000, 000 or $75,000,000 a year toward the reduction of the national debt. It will gradually call in tho greenback notes, more equally distribute the banking capital of the country, and start at once on the road to a resumption of specio payment. It will reduce the debt and reduce che taxes, reduce the price of sugar, flour, mo lasses, tea, salt, clothing, toots and shoes, and, in three years, make greenbacks as good as gold. It will also secure equal and just taxa tion of all property, and the payment of every bond and every note issued by the Government to the last dollar.— Ex.

Flags flying at Laif mast. (Communicated.) Memphis, Tens'., Oct. 1-’, li-6>. Mr. Editor : The physical appearance of O'Ur State, And the political complexion of the CoMntiy, present A forcible contrast. The gon ial and golden sun of Indian Summer brightly gilds tbc fading forest with mellow lustfe, and the Divine Creator of all tilings appears t have quitted, for a brief period, Hi- exalted home amid the starry heavens, and t < dwell upon earth. The rapid influx of cotton, the more cheer ful farmer, and tho increased activity of th - city merchants, all express anew hope an 1 a new commercial life. Yet, in utter disregard of these benign influences, do wo behold Ten nessee steadily sinking under its own political weight, human vultures are feeding upon her very vitals, and today she moans and groans in agony, under the infamous heel of Brownlow and his treacherous satellites. The Southern poople are slumbering upon a hissing, seething volcano, which is liable to burst fortli at any moment in all its fury. The negro, elated and inflated with self-importance, poisoned by the oorruptteachings of miserable Radical thieves, is -on the broad road to anni hilation, and to the conversion of this beautiful country into a vast field of unheard of blood and carnage. There can be no possible doubt but that it is the fixed purpose of the Radical party to drive the South to desperation, to force a collision of the races, and tho consequent wreck and desolation, to come down with the syren song of peace, and administer on the pitiful residue of our estates. Charity may suggest some excuse for the avaricious carpet bagger, who was patriotic enough to quit his country for his country's good, seeking to dis place us; but, the apostate who turns his hungry eye upon his brother’s goods, and who soeks, through the mad passions of poor un lettered people to rob and destroy his neighbor, doserves not rest, oven within the ponderous jaws of Hades, but like Salatfiael, forgotten of his God, should live forever, and whipped naked through the world with the scorpion sting a f remorse. The South has displayed wonderful heroism in the past, and wo would earnestly urge further patience and endurance, until the Democracy of the North shall rise in the majesty of thoir strength aud strike from our manacled limbs the torturing shackles of tyranny. Our desolated homes cry for peace, the wail of tlie widow aud orphan beg for peace, and the shadowy ghosts of our murdered soldiers whis per peace ; but, in the name of all that is jju.-t, let that peace be a profound peace,—a peace which brings an equality of States, brotherly affection, serene onjoymont, and substantial blessings. Not such peace us is promised by tho Radical party. They cry “ peace, friends, peace,” and yet, at this very moment, there are four thousand stand of arms at our wharf to he placed in the hands of the negroes of Ar kansas to slay our brothers ! Not such peace as GrantolFera; for becomes with olive branch es masking bristling bayonets. Oh ! my poo ple, his election will hut continue and intensify the evils that now dwarf our manhood. Ten nessee is bound hand and foot; her proud sons nro denied the privileges granted to the mean est negro ; and wo would urge you, Georgians, to avert the impending storm ; work early, work earnestly, work late to defeat the unholy purposes of this wicked party. Tennessee mourns with her sister, Georgia, tho untimely death of the lion. Howell Conn, lie was a true patriot, a wise statesman, and a gallant soldier. No more will his clarion voice ring out the cause of freedom. No more will he be heard in the councils of the nation, and no more will his strong arm ami manly form brave the battles of his people. “ lleqnicscat in pace I Fashions aro as varied this Fall as forest leaves in Autumn. It is really amusing to stand for an hour on Main street and watch the absurdities of female fashion. The stately dignity, grace, and beauty of “ sweet sixteen.” have almost entirely given place, to tho feeble and unsteady step of the octogenarian. Girls used to walk, now they roll and totter and rock with as many ridiculous and fantastic capers as a lot of “ devil’s horse” on hot em bers. lam fully convinced that if you could suddenly look in upon a street thronged with tho “ Grecian bend,” you would swear that you had been hurriedly rushed into a lunatic asy lum. It is really delightful to quit the silly gaye ties aud extravagances of city life, aud even in thought to wander back again to tho primitive pleasures and beauties ol your little town.— Little villages, to me, aie atoms of shattered Paradise, and yours—the cradle aud grave of my dearest friend, the theatre of many pleas ures, aud but one trouble—must have been the very centre of that beautiful garden. lb 11.

Hon. It. 11. Hill’s Letter* to the Tribune, The following extracts front tho second let ter of Mr. Ilill to the New York Tribune , will show the style of his arguments and appeals to the Radical readers of that sheet. It has generally been thought a hopeless undertaking to Attempt to convert the inhabitants of the lower world to the love of the truth ; lut if Mr. Hill s! all succeed in hi« unpromising field, it must be confessed that there is room for hope in ‘f.e kingdom of despair. That his statements of facts are incontrovertible and his arguments irresistible when presented to uuprejudice! minds, is very true; but when it is getermnied what intensity of light will enable a blind man to see, it can be estimated bow much argument will convince a fanatic of Lis errors. Yet the resolute daring which prompts Mr. Ilill in attacking Radicalism in its own fortified strongholds must command a Imiration. After thanking Air. Greeley ft>r giving him an equal showing with the negro, which he could not havo in the South, Mr.llill says : It is impossible for the Northern people to conceive how adroitly aid yet how effectually our utterances in the South aro distorted here, and bow completely our meaning is often re versed, and tho application of our wojds changed. I find a wide spread idea at the North that the election of General Grant will insure peace anil quiet at the South. This result the South will desire, but it is not pos sible if General Grant, as President, shall ‘ maintain and porpetiuti” the Reconstruction measures. The fault does not lie in the tem per of the Southern whites, as is represented at the North, but it lies in the character of the Reconstruction policy mid its logical work ings. These measures breed a dirty class of office-seekers at tho hands of the negroes, who in turn breed Camilla riots. Our tost white pooplo are now doing all in their power to prevent these results in hope of early relief in tbc Presidential election. Wc do not re gard the governments forced under these Reconstruction measures as yet legal!;/ estab lished. In our opinion the American people, in this election, are to express their will on that question. If General Grant shall be elected Ihe curpct-bcggcrs and negro instiga tors will feel sustained and encouraged. Our white people will feel abandoned by the North, and, 1 fear, will becomo hopeless and desper ate. I turn from the picture of results. Al lien you blame men for not keeping quiet and cool in a lire, then blame the Southern whites for results in that case. People of the North, smr 113 now! On the other hand the election of Seymour will ho accepted ns a decision of the. American people that mtr governments are not established ; (he few whites who now sup port them from policy will abandon them ; al] inducement to organize negroes as voters will bo at an end : the people will be encouraged, hopeful: good governments for all colors will return, aud peace will be assured, and univer sal and instantaneous Ido know that all our industrial arrangements are affected by this contingency. If Mr. Seymour i.i elected, plantations now idle are to be worked, fcto ri os built, and capital invested, and at fair, good prices. If General Grant shall be elec ted, bargains are to be rescinded, and none will venture, except such as aro compelled for a living, and have no other resource. 1 firmly believe it will cost tho Federal Government two hundred millions per annum to keep the peace under these Reconstructed governments, and then the peace will not, because it cannot, be kept under them. "But will tbc destruction of local pence and prosperity be all 7 I fear not and believe not. Omitting tbc body of the latter, which is an appeal to the magnanimity of (lie North on the behalf of constitutional liberty, he clo.-cs the letter as follows : How is it courageous to oppress the South only because you can. But I warn you, the same Government cannot administer force at the South and freedom at the North. The time has come when emphatically the country must be all free or all slave. Ten millions of white people—Americans—wearied with repeated offers of Union ; exhausted with protestations of good faith and sincerity ; voiceless with vain pleadings for peace : hopeless of the re demption of pledges ; impoverished with in satiate exactions; sick with fruitless conces sions to malignity; disturbed because they will not submit to pillage by negroes led on by strangers, and driven by a terrible experience to the final conviction that in themselves alone, is their protection — such a l><’oj,!e, Jt sated by all mankind, are not row uklkxs.

Approved February 25,1865. By command of Gen.Grnnt E. D. Tounsknd, A. A. G. Grant’s Longest Speech. A foreigner—a correspondent of the Inde pendence Beige—recently paid a visit to Gen eral Grant, at Galena. During the interview, someone alluded to politics, w hen “the Gen eral rejdieil with animation :” ‘■’The Southerners aro passionate and lose out ol sight their own interests in serving the Northern Copperheads, who will laugh ut them when their aid is no longer required, it is absolutely necessary to give political passions sufficient time to pass away ; the young gener ation comprehends its duties and interests bet ter. Anew war is impossible, aud as to a wav ol races ldo not believe in it. The Southern negroes aro not so reckless nor so determined as those in St. Domingo, and if ever the whites should take tbc initiative in such a conflict, tbc Federal army would soon put a stop to it. The pacification of the country will come by and by, and whatever occurs, the North, which lias abolished slavery, decreed the political and social equality of tho blacks and whites, and opined the South, hitherto closed to emigration, is always ready to go to war, if unfortunately circumstances should demand it. Jealous of" its work, the world will never permit it to be imperilled by any factious doings.” Tho General should bear in mind, remaps the Richmond Whig, that if the Southrons do lose sight of their true interests in serving the Copperheads, they arc tlie only people at the North who profess any sympathy for them and avow the wish to save them from the threat ened African domination. The General him self intimates in his speech that lie would employ the sward to enforce “tho decreed political and social equality of the blacks and whites ;” which implies the extent of his affection for the south.
