The result of the election in Cincinnati and In one or two other localities in Ohio, was easily foreseen weeks ago by those who were woll informed as to the manner In which that campaign w as being conduct ed. In Cincinnati they had, iu addition to the regular nominees of the Republican and tlio Democratic parlies, a third party, misnamed “ the working men’s party,” with Gen. Sam. Cary at Its head. Thii man Cary, although a Republican of the Schuy ler Colfax School, could not brook disap pointment, and was quite willing to sacri fice liig party to his own ambition; aud when the party made their nom inations, leaving him out, lie set up for himself; and to secure his election, entered into terms with certain nominees of the Democratic party. Thus, with two Republican candidates iu the field—one of whom had been bartering witli th6 Demo crat*—tho Democratic gain is not a matter of surprise. • Mr., or “ Gen.” Cary seems to have run npou the eight hour sensation, and put himself forward as the representative of the workingmen, although it Is well known that a more selfish find ungracious aristo- rat in a small way,never had an existence iu the Buckeye State. Nevertheless, the Dem ocrats were but too anxious to use him; whilst many of the working men of that Metropolis were mislead Into his support. Similar causes have produced like results In other portions of thut aud other North ern States. Tlio elections, so far from turn ing upon the leading issues of the day, seem to have settled no issues beyond those mere local or personal nature, sprung by ambitious men, with a view of feather ing their own nests.

Go to business diligently; waste no idle moments; he very economi cal In all things; discard all pride; be faithful in your duty to God iu private and public worship, and do untoull men os you would that they should do unto you.

South. “E. N. Reb” affirmed that the Southern Methodist Church was u seces sion from theM. E. Church—a secession prompted liyu political motive; made in the iutercstof politlnns; nmdo because the “mother church” would not recognize slavery as a “ divine institution,” and now sustained as a sectional pro-slat e,y organi sation. All this, and more, “ E. X. Reb* asserted—you, John 11, Caldwell, indorse these statements, and I, William P. Harri son, pronounce them an unqualified libel upon the memory of the good and great men, now dead, who organized the Metho dist Episcopal Church, Boutli; and upon the good and true men now living, who are ministers and members of that church. Hero wo join the issue. “Your friend, “E. X. llcb.” is, doubtless, thankful for your generous relief, afford ed him at a painfully embarrassing mo ment.

Allow roe to say, iu the very be.-t of humor toward you. personally, that the reputation of either your head or, your heart ill ust be sadly damaged by the pro posed discussion. You were for twenty years a minister of the church which you now volunteer to prove a corrupt political machine. You were a zealous, ardent de fender of that church until the failure of the “lost cause.” Suddenly, you changed front—your conversion; Was it from heaven, or of inen ? Did you willingly lend yourself as a religious tool to preserve a po litical party/ If so, alas! for your heart, then and now!

Rob.” 1 shall conduct the discussion in u spirit of kindness. I shall show >ou no uieivy when my cuusc demands the exposure of your errors, but I shall not sti p aside to touch any is-te which the vindication of myditireh doe? not require. I anticipate a great deal of enjoyment from the forthcoming discussion. Yoiw bit of pleasantry about the challenge wlih*|i you gave the Georgia Conference (mysell Included.) ut Macon, iu November, lSii.*. satisfies,me that von have a very keen sense of the ridiculous, ami that you can enjoy a stroke of humor now and then, even If it should *»e nt your own expense. And ns you have suggested the hero of Izi Mancha, the world renowned l)ou Quixote, as furnishing a tine subject for imitation. 1 shall consider the suggestion, ai d let you hear from ine about some of the sayings and doings at the Macon Con ference—when we meet at Philippi. I ntn very fond of controversy. I enjoy It very much indeed. I never refuse a challenge from a respectable source. :o discuss any subject in my line of life.

My conjectures may lie wrong, hut the Era says that the Dr.’s “call served to create a fuss In the camp of the faitiiful. Look sharp, gentlemen, or you may yet let the black cat out of the bag.
