TUESDAY NOVEMBER 1888
NEW YORK ELECTION.

Owing 10 the badness of the travelling the result
OF the New York City election has not reached
this place as il should by the usual Of mail
We have our Boston papers of Friday morning and
New York papers of Wednesday But the vote
of the City would not be known till Thursday
morning. The result, though not probably perfect
" accurate given OF the two first days hRllclungs
from many of the country towns, and what not
uncommon, both parties claim the advantage; yet
we should think the intelligence favorable to
the Wings. Latierly, since the gross frauds Of the
Administration have been exposed in other States,
thus showing thar they were to he practised in
ny State, we have given up New York the To-
ries, and should II prove TO be Wing State we
shall be favorabIy disappointed,
AT the close of the ed day the Wing ticket was
ahead $50 in Albany-and good from old
Duchess, where the Wings claimed to be 800 or
1000 ahead. The American of Wednesday morning
remarks,
Ii is certain that we have gained the four mem
bers of Congress in Duchess, Rensselaer,, Sarato-
"a and Albany, now msrepresenled by four Loco
Focos. IF the city grants leave TO Messrs Cambre
leng and Moore remain home, the State will
undoubtedly send Wing majority to the next
House of Representatives, and renker certain the
election of a Wing Speaker, and above all, a Wing
Committee of Investigation.
The same paper adds the following in relation to
the two first days Of the City election
Every thing goes on admirably. The right spirit
animates the Wings With few exceptions, good or
der has prevailed and we may anticipate reward
for pas. exertions and past defeats in tho pleasure
of seeing the triumph of sound opinions. We give
a staemen mt of the number Of votes poed yester-
dav an Monday, compared with the results of the
first two days of the election last April and last

FOURTH DISTRICT. As feared the Hon.
Stephen Royce has declined the nomination for
Congress in the 4th District Our friends there
will now go into the contest without any reguor
candidate, and their votes will be scattered, besides
being disheartened by The decnation of so popu-
lar a candidate as Mr. r. Under these crcumstan-
ces, with others that git be named bearing upon
the election, we think Mr. Smith will be elected to-
day, Tuesday, by 400 majority. This result is 10

proclamation, publishing the resolve of The Gener-
