E(G-MA TlD H A VOL. XIV NO. 88. PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1870. DOUBLE. SHEET THREE CENTS. V FIRST EDITION THE ELECTIONS. A Republican Victory I Five Sound States. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Nebraska. The Latest ITisrui'es. The Vote in this City. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Ne braska held State elections yesterday, and in each the Republican party gained a decided victory. The returns, as yet, are udusually meagre, but they are sufficiently definite to give a certain clue to the result: THE WESTERN STATES. The Result In Ohio. Indiana, Iewn, and Ne braska. From the States weBt of Pennsylvania which hold elections yesterday, the returns are as yet too Im perfect to give the definite result. Ohio. Scattering returns from all parts of Ohio show large Republican pains, and there can be no doubt ot the election of the entire Republican State ticket by an Increased majority over last year, when it was 7618. It is impossible to approximate to the stand ing of the Congressional delegation, which stands in the present Congress fourteen Republicans to live Democrats. Indlnna has been carried by the Republicans on the State ticket by a sate majority, although the vote was nnasnally light. The Congressional delegation in the present Congress stands 7 Republicans to 4 De mocrats, and the indications are that there will be lo change. lewa. The vote in this State was very small, owing to heavy rains and bad roads In a great part of the State. The Republican vote, however, has fallen oir less than the Democratic In proportion, and tne entire State and Congressional tickets are elected. Last year the Republican majority was nearly 441,000, and it will not fall much below this tlgure this year. Nebraaka electa the entire Republican ticket by a probable majority of 3000. The Legislature is largely Repub lican, and Senator Thayer telegraphs that it is con trolled by his friends, making his return to the United States Senate certain. PENNSYLVANIA. - PHILADELPHIA. A Sure anil Certain Victory In the City The Keturns I'p to the Latest flour. In this city the vote was a light one, even with the addition of the colored voters, and ag gregates less than 90,000, against 08,000 in 1609, and 121,000 In 1858. The returns have been very dilatory, and are not yet complete in all the wards. But they are sufll- ciently full to indicate the the elec tion f the entire city Republican ticket, with the exception of the candidate for Judge of the District Court, by majorities varying be tween 1700 and 7000. The Vote for Sheriff, compared with that for Governor in 1809, was as follows: Ward. 1 2 3 4 n t 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 SO 21 22 V!3 24 25 26 2J 28 Total Majorities... Aggregates..

THE REDS AT LT09, Cluaeretnnd Hla Can of Ualley Hlnveo The Krlan of Terror at L,vona-A Police or 000 Crluilnala Outrage on the Ptienta and Nuns The Public Treaanry Plundered. FroviiheLotuton Telegraph, Lille, Sept. 28. Being anxious to see what stage the preparations making against the Prussians had arrived at In this time, I left Douai yesterday, and a pleasant trip of three hours braught me to Lille, which ranks as a first-class fortified town, has about 130,000 Inhabitants, and ranks aa the fifth city or France In general wealth and importance. On my way hither I was not left to waste my time, for in the same carriage I found a French gentleman who, to use his own expression, had Just "escaped" from Lyons, and was on his way to that harbor of safety In these times, the capital of Belgium. It seems that the ruling spirit at Lyons 'is American-Franco. sbneral clcserkt, who, in spite of his services being declined by the present Government of France, and notwithstand ing the fact of his being specially forbidden by Ills rural authority not to go to Lyons, has found his way to that city, and Is now at the head of the Red Republicans of the place. The General's stair, or rather body guard, consists or sixty rafllans who have lately been liberated from the travaux force, or galleys, and these, with a few kindred spirits, foim what is called the Comt'te ieSalut IHiblic. Mon sieur Andrew, the former president of the said cvrnite, has been turned :away because he wishes to recognize the present Government of France. Mon sieur chattemel Lacour, the prefect named by the same rulers, has not only been set aside, but is In prison. The police of the Reign of Terror which governs Lyons is composed of some 6000 men who have been liberated from the criminal jails. TUB REGULAR TROOr8 in the town consist chiefly of corps that have been defeated during the present campaign, and these not only fraternize with the Red party, but are In such aBtateof anarchy that General Estivantde VillanboiB has resigned his command, and left the place In distrust and despair. He has not been re placed, and General Cluseret is now military com mander as well as political chief or Lyons. No per son Is allowed to leave the town, and no one can obtain a ticket at the railway station without a written permit from the Comite de 8alut Public, The clergy of the town are in sulted whenever they appear in the streets, and public worship cannot be carried on without the most blasphemous ribal dry from such of the Reds as happen to be present. The Jesuit Fathers are the special objects of perse cution, eleven of them are in prison, and the others are not allowed to leave their college nor to receive pupils. The other day a lay brother or the estab lishment died, and when his body was carried forth the convicts, who form the police, had the cotlln opened in the streets, in order to make sure that it did not contain one of the community endeavoring to escape. The whole of many silk factories which form the wealth of Lyons have stopped work, and respectable people of all ranks are in terror or their lives. The comite has declared it to be treason to hoist the tricolor flag, and the drapeur rouge floats from all the public establishments. The Garde Mobile, utterly disquieted with what is going on, have given up their arms, and refuse to serve nnder the self-constituted rulers of the place. Gene ral Cluseret is trying hard to raise another corps of the same kind, and has had printed handbills placed on the walls, stating that such persons as wish for commissions in the Garde Mobile can have the same If they serve a month In the ranks. The workmen of the districts or La Oulllotiere and or La Croix Kousfe, numbering about 10,000, are the chief up holders or the red republic THE rCBLIC TREASURY, which is very wealthy, is in the bands or General Cluseret and his rrlends, who deal out, under various pretexts, enough to keep the workmen quiet and well-fed. Thousands or the inhabitants would be only too glad to leave the place, but are not allowed to do so. No house, no chamber, in the whole town is sacred from what is called a domiciliary visit or the ruillanly police, and no one can safely say that he or she will not be imprisoned to-morrow for some Imaginary offense against the sovereign majesty of the people. In a word, the military adventurer and his subordinates have, together with the roughs of Lyons, established again the good old days of repub lican terror, and there seems no power in the land able to put them down. From this description or the present state or the second city in France, I do not think many Englishmen will select it as a place or residence, at any rate for some time to come. The only glimpse or hope which my informant seemed to have, when he related what I have here told you, was that when be left Lyons the Reds were preparing for a tight among themselves. It seems that even in the red republicanism there are shades and degrees of rufllanlsm, and that some enlight ened spirits of that persuasion were not content to draw tne line at General Cluseret and the knights or penal servitude, but want to go even lower still. More particularly the Dictator's staff, it not himself, seem to be truly French. The general's secretary is a gentleman who for many years wore the yellow dress and the chain on the leg. He is no doubt an accomplished man, but has a natural disregard for geography, which, like moBt or his countrymen, he looks upon as a mere matter or detail. When my informant went to this otilclal to get a pass to leave Lyons he was asked where he wanted to go, and upon saying that he wished to proceed to Brussels, he was asked In what country that town was sit uated ! FULTON TS. TILT0N. Nice Questions of Wine, Beer, and Veracity A Clerical LJbel Bull. iVew the Brooklyn Union, The following editorial article appeared in the Brooklyn Union of October 7: TEE REV. LAGER BEER FULTON. The Peligious Telescope, of Dayton, Ohio, contains a copy of a letter which it says the Rev. Justin D. Fulton, of Boston, has addressed to Mr. Theodore TUton, or New York, although Mr. Tllton has never received either the letter lu question or any otht r rrom Mr. Fulton. The Teleicope'e copy or Mr. Ful ton's mlKBive is as rollows : Boston, Massachusetts.

If true, 1 shall take such means as I may think expedient to put the truth befwre the pubbo throiieh the newspapers. J. D rULlON. Mr. TUton has the honor to say, in reply, that so far as regards himself, he drinks wine on communion and other proper occasions ; and that so far as re gards the mountebank who is reported to have ad dressed bltn the above letter, this hot Gospeller, after preaching a Suuday night sermon In Dr. Armi tage's church in New York, sauntered down the Bowery In company with a friend, entered a lager beer saloon, and during an hour's Btay drank (the two together) nine or ten glasses or lager beer, or W hich the Rev. Mr. Fulton guzzled the larger part. To-day the Associated Press telegrams contain the tallowing: Boston, Oct. 11. The friends of the Rev. Justin D. Fulton having seen the published statement made by Mr. Theodore TUton, met at the house of George W. Nlssman last evening, with the Execu tive Committee of the Union Temple Baptist Church, and by a unanimous vote resolved to prosecute Mr. Tllton for libel. In this connection the following card appears to-day : The statement made in the Brooklyn Union of Friday, October 7, by Mr. '1'ilton, is unfortonata in two respeots V irst, the letter ha prints pui portm to ba written by ma is a forgery ; scond, the declaration ha makes, which fol low! the latter, has not the slightest foundation in truth.

I have the honor to say that when the a bove libel suit comes to trial a well-known and reliable gentle man will make affidavit that my statement tn the Brooklyn L'niin, concerning the Rev. Justin D.

The Protest of French Ofllcora They Refuse Freedom en the Terms Ottered Napoleon and Wlmpflen Deaonnced. The Frankfort-on-the-Maln (Sept. 22) correspond ence of the Pall Mall Gazette has the following: Having volnnteered to accompany some sluk and wounded to their destination, I recently had an op portunity of conversing with a number of French superior otllcers, prisoners taken at Sedan, a whole batch of whom (nearly one hundred) were conveyed to a Prussian fortress In Pomeranla; and as a number of them required my professional assistance being wounded aDd suffering from fever and finding that I was an American and could Bpcak (though Imperfectly) their language, they gave vent to the mest bitter complaints against the perfidy and treachery of Napoleon and Wlmpll'en, by whom, they said, they were absolutely sold. Several of them, holding high rank, were naturally entitled to participate In the councils upon a matter of such vital Importance. Yet they were left In utter Ignorance of the capitulation of Sedan nntil three days in some cases even four days after It bad taken place. They were then requested to sign a paper promising not again to take up arms against the Germans during the duration of the present war; they would then be at liberty to return te France unmolested, retaining their arms, horses, and baggage. This they indignantly refused, and preferred being sent off to a Prussian fortress, there to be kept nrisoners nntil the expiration of the war. Some of these gentlemen told me this with tears In their eyes and an expression of deep hatred and dis gust at the bare mention of Napoleon and Wimptren. "Bo you think It possible," said they, "that we have so far degenerated as to permit ourselves 80,000 men to be entrapped like a parcel of mice?" Tne following Is a translation of the protest (writ ten on oinclal paper) referred to In our correspond ent's letter. It will be remembered that General Wlmpflen has already answered by anticipation the allegations against him : Ahmf.b du Khin, 6mb ooitPfl, General Commandant LBUenik, Stettin, Sept. 4, 1870.
