THE SOUTHERN VOTE.
¥i irs of an Intelligent Correspondent of a Rakical Newspaper. Correspondence Cincinnati Commercial.
In making up your estimates for the Presidential election tbij year, you m*y count all tbe electoral votes of the Southern States for tbe Democratic candidate, save those of South Carolina. Every other Southern State will go for the Democratic candidate. Sheriff Morgan, of Yazoo county, Mississippi, who was runoff by the whites, wad knows something of their temper, says that twentyfive thousand soldiers cannot* save Mississippi to the Republican party. If that State, with a majority of thirty thousand colored voters, can be cairied by the Democrats, what can the Republicans expect from any other Southern State? No other State except South Carolina, har positive colored majority, and if the Republicans cannot cirty Mississippi, what Southern State otn tbey carry? None at all, except South Carolina. The combined Stuth has 188 electoral votes, or within forty-eight ofenougb to elect. Deduct South Carolina, and they still have witnin fifty-five of enough to elect
In this part of the country

If both parties declare for ourtt money tueir platforms will read ,-s much alike as two jspeiling-book-. What great issue will divide tbem? None at all. It looks now as if tin-y will have nothing better to talk about than tbe discharge of some door-keepers at the Capitol and the suhststntion of ex-Confederates. Ttiis is small potatoes. I believe there are more ex Confederates in Federal positions as a reward for being Republicans taan there are 'on f^l erne D^mocjat.s. Ir, often happens in tbe South that exFederals are turned out of office for not being t-uffioiently loyal to the party and ex-Confedera»e Republicans put in. One man from East Tennessee got a clerkship under the Democratic House, but so far from ueinir an ex-Cenfederate he was an officer iu the Federal army during the war, he was indorsed for tlie position by nil of the Tennessee delegation largely made up of exCo nfederates. Now it is clear that it the RppubliCHQS should get control of the next Congress this ex*Fedelal soldier would be turned out iu a hurry, and likely some man ot the Mos* by or Longstreet stripe get in.
Some years ago the man of whom I speak, Major Kirby. held a federal poaitlou in this city aloiig with Col. W. B. Gaw, also an ex-Federal sol di*r. Gaw was engineer of the Tennessee river improvement, and Kirby was his clerk. Tbey were both turned out of office because Gaw slept with a Democrat. Col. Gaw was a great friend of A. E. James, a well-known Democrat, but a staunch Union man, and roomed with him. The mighty charue was sent to Washington that Gaw was sleeping with a Democrat and that Kirby was littie better than a Democrat, and they were both relieved from duty! The fact that they bad been ex-Fed-eral soldiers counted notbiuKin their favor. Yet there is a so-called conj^rtss giviug thissame Major Kirby, an ex-officer in a colored regitneui, a clerkship in the Honae!

Cott, Mrs. Moultoii an I tho Un- .: godly Man. ..
New York,Jan.21.—At au adjourn ee annual meeting of the Plymouth ehuro to-night, Mr. Beecher umtie a leugtby address in reference to the letters of Mrs. Moulton and Judge Van Cott, recently published. He iilluded to the recent death of the daughter of Judire Van Cott as a reason why it should have been impos* sible'for him to have penned a letter containiug falsehoods arraiguing Plymouth church, and which a man with the instincts of a gentlemau would not have written. Referring to tbe expressions in Vau Colt's letter about coarseness of the pastor's speech, he said there has not a «iugle communication come from tne other side but has been reeking with the words of crime, adultry,' perjury and every other offensive epithet. It had beeu the stamp of that correspondence aud they had been obliged to sit in church and listen to the reading of letters which no womau could hear read without blushing. Jt was proper in his, Judge Vau Cott's judgment, for a woman* to read all these letters of this class, but it was improper for the speaker to say a word in regard to them or their safety. Is a man, said he, in thundering tones, to stand in a community as loug as I have aud in a church as large as this which I have built up under God, and after going through treats for five yean, is a women to be permitted to lash him with ber tongue, and at last when he stands up to say a word, is he to be adJ!bdged*.coarse. Beecber denied that Plymouth Church had broken up the mutual council and said it ltaif never asked that any church named by other nide should be excluded. I' woul have gone on with council whether these churches withdrew or not, for Mr. Van Cott to state that Plymouth Church had broken down council, was absolutely false, they did not desire to go on with two men already sworn in on the other side. Tbey had complained that the coun» ell did not iwkrt the evidence Franlin Woodruff, Francis D. Moulton, J. Richards, Mrs. Bradawaw Buck, Mr. and Mrs. Tilion, Rev. Storrs, Rev. W. W. Patton, the evangelists of misbelief. It was said that they would not call Mrs. Tilton. She appeared twice. Mrs. Bradshaw bad refused to come. Mr. Richards came aud said he would not answer. .He held in bis hand a letter from M», Bradshaw, containing her refusal, one from Frank Carpenter, in whicb he piously refused to appear, and others of the same class, and now Mr. Van Cott charges tbe committee with haviug slurred over evidence there. Said the speaker, strongly empha»leing each word, I wonder however, that a man bowed down with fatherly grief, should have gone so far.
He was the paid council of Mrs. Moulton. and
wm
no doubt acting
rightly, for her blood would tell. That was tbe spirit of a gentleman, and it would show itself whether be was acting as an exparte counsel or not, and it was an infamy and a shame, for him to lay the pall over his daugtber's face, and to charge his own partner, John Wfnslow, the man with whom he'-assoclated every day, w.th trying to evade the troth. Tbe speaker then went on. This letter very fitly closes wiih a strain of piety preaching. You have- been too long and well kuowu in the best elites aud christian societies of Brook lyn, to make it necessary to vindicate youmeif' Here be says, addressing tbe Joan of arc of Brooklyn, and I venture tbe opinion that before this painful conteoverey ends, yonr truthfulness and christian integrity will be recognized by all tbe world* You have properly cared for the good name ana fame of the Congregational churoh, bit the churc'J mast u,v

The letter stated and he was very wilting to step asid« and let Niunethiuu else be tried The questions uo ou trial. were best: Whether neighboring chunhes may interfere wim tbe discipline of another church wheihei th-y may violatepropri«M»»« in nefghlvrinur ohurcbes, and whether they may act uncharitably aud sin•crelv, -md'then call on thi exparte couucil to ratify theirconduct.

When Beecier had concluded, .Shearman offered thefollowlng resolution:
Resolved, That the committer on advising too council be authorized to ameud the letter missive for that council by omittiug su persona thereof as they may deem no longer necessary. This was unanimously adopted and the meeting adjourned to meet uext Friday evening.
