TaE Democracy OF THE EMPIRE CrrY.-The
late powerful demonstration of the conserva-
tive democracy of the city of New York in
favor Of the ticket and platform Of the Breckin-
ridge wing of the party throws food of light
upon this Presidential contest. We thus per-
ceive that the solid democratic commercial in
terests Of New York are true to their sympa-
thies with the South; and so, we doubt not we
shall find the same substantial elements of the
democratic party in every commercial centre,
great and small, of the Northern States. Sus-
tanned by the unbroken column of the Southern
States, backed up by the administration at
Washington, and supported by the solid COM
mercial and financial classes Of the party in the
North, the Breckenridge ticket is the only ticket
in the field that can make fight against the
black republicans.
The supporters Of Mr.. Douglas make some pre-
tensions to strength in the border slave States;
but as the campaign goes on their weakness
will become more and more apparent, until
their last calculation Of breaking the unity Of
the South upon Breckenridge will have
vanished. There is good reason to believe.
from the prevailing sentiment of the Southern
people, that all the supposed doubtful Southern
States will swing round to Breckenridge on
election day, and upon this paramount idea,
that in this crisis the South must stand as a
unit upon the platform Of her constitutional
rights.
Nor Is this all. Pennsylvania may possibly
still be secured to Breckinridge; for the posi-
ton Of Hickman and Forney in that State, as
the leaders Of the Douglas movement against
the administration, has turned over the demo-
crazy there into the undisputed control of the
Breckenridge interest. Nor is this ticket with
out hopes OF a powerful assistance from the
conservative elements OF the old line wing and
American parties. Thus there is hope of
positive victory, which will strengthen Breckin-
ridge, not only Ia the South and In the doubt
full Northern States, but in every Northern
State, county, city and town, to the prejudice
of Douglas
Breckenridge movement Is already largely in
the ascendancy over the opposing Douglas fac
ton; for in the interest Of Breckinridge are all

rated in the city prisons whom they are desirods

missioners, to prevent persons from holding promis

adopted and the Commissioners adjourned. The
number in the institutions now is 32l an increase
of 81 for the past week; the number admitted in
that time being 1885, while those discharged
transferred, or who died. numbered 1897.
The examination of Frederic Hoffman, the al.
lodged deisuting Secretary Of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, held before Justice Connolly,
AT the Jefferson Market Police Court, was con-
Guided yesterday morning. The prisoner was com.
mitted to await trial on four distinct and separate
charges-two for illegal issue of stock and two for
forgery. The amount of bail was fixed at $22 900,
to reduce which an application will be made to the
Supreme Court. A report of the final examination
will be found in another column.
An exciting game of base ball took place yester.
day in Brooklyn, between the Excelsior Club, of
South Brooklyn, and the Atlantic Club, of Bed
ford, Long Island. The play was witnessed BY
about four thousand spectators. The game termi
mated in favor Of the Excelsior Club by twenty
three runs to four, result altogether unexpected.
The contest lasted three hours and twelve minutes.
A sweepstakes for four Dared boats came off yes

Poughkeepsie, and Judge Voorhees,. of Williams

Stranger, the McCay coming in second. Distance
rowed about three miles. Time 10 minutes &c

PrGnrsM "PLAYED OUT."-The arrival of the
so-caiied champion Of the world" made only
temporary excitement among the governing
classes" of the metropolis. Everybody else re-
garded the matter with that supreme indiaer-
ence which is a peculiar characteristic of New
York. The attempt to get up fight with Nor

OCR HARBoR DEFENCEs AND VOLUNTEER Sol
DIERV-One of the most interesting as we'll as
important displays by our volunteer soldiery
that ever took place in New York was the
artillery drill of the City Guard with the bar
bette guns, at Fort Hamilton, on Wednesday,
and great credit is due to Captain Mansfield
Lowell, not alone for conceiving and carrying
out the idea of familiarizing our citizen soldiers
with the use of the guns on the forts in the har-
Dor, but for the admirable training to which be
has brought the company under his COM
mand. Captain Lowell was formerly an officer of
the United States Army, in the artillery service
of which be displayeda remarkable efficiency,
and 1t ishighly creditable 10 him to devote his
knowledge and experience to the task of
educating our volunteers as artillerists-a
branch Of the military profession upon which
we would have to rely more than any other ia
time Of war for the defence of our splendid
metropolis.
Ii is unnecessary to say that the regu-
lar army is wholly incompetent in point of
numbers to man the forts of New York harbor
alone. Moreover, it is scattered on the frontier
where its services will be always required more
or less. The artillery service is very small
and such as 1t is, the men are trained to the use
of light batteries, and would have much to I'M
learn and to learn before they could fight these
heavy guns with effect. Our forts, then, must
depend for their garrisons upon the militia and
volunteers, and hence it becomes matter Of
vital importance that they should be properly
drilled in the service Of casemate and barbette
guns. 1t will be seen by the following table that
force of over five thousand men would be re-
quired to garrison the defences Of the harbor, as
they now stand, and the figures below, we think,
present very low estimate Of the num-
Der necessary to work the thirteen hun
dred guns mounted on the different
forte. The annexed table shows the number
and location Of our hsrbor defences, the num-
Der of guns, the men required for their SER
vice, and the estimated cost of the works and
armament

great deal OF outside pressure upon the direc-
tors Of the Great Eastern, with view to get
ting the big ship to steam up the Delaware.
There is, however, an ugly place in the chan

afraid of. By way of compromise, we pre-

THE WAIroN-MATHEws MuRDER-REsurr oY
THE INoUEsr.-As our readers are aware. the
Coroner's jury, in the case Of the murder Of
Mr.. Walton in Eighteenth street, on the night
of the 30th Of June have elected sufficient In
formation out Of the testimony to partially I'M
rsvel the mystery, and fasten the crime upon
the eldest step-son of the deceased. II is true
that the evidence was wholly circumstantial
and that the Identification of the accused was
by no means clear; yet there was chain Of
circumstances encircling the suspected party
strong enough to warrant the finding Of the
jury. For example: the existence Of an ap-
parent motive, the threats, and the custom of
carrying arms; and perhaps the strongest link
In that chain was his refusal, by the advice of
counsel, to prove an alibi.
IL Il not always, however, that the verdict Of
Coroner's jury is followed by an indictment
in mysterious cases Of this kind. The story
has yet to undergo a careful scrutiny by the
Grand Jury, and perbaps the prisoner may be
able 10 present a case to that body, rs be al
leges he can do, which will relieve him from
the charge Of murder, and theypenalties which
await conviction.

Breckenridge and Lane meeting on Wednesday

the right direction. 1t ignores all the dead past

STATE ELECTIONS TO CoxE OFF-THER SIG
NrfICAScY.-In the next two or three months
various State elections come Oh whose results
will be significant, as indicating the strength of
parties, fragments Of parties, or combinations of
parties, and their bearing on the Presidential
election in November. On the I'd of Au-
gust in North Carolina an election for State OIL
GERS will take place; and in Arkansas, Texas
and Missouri elections will be held on the 9th
Of the same month for State officers and mem
bers of Congress. In Vermont and Maine SINH
lar elections will be held in September; and in
Florida, Mississippi, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio and
Pennsylvania these contests will take place In
October. AS premonitory signs Of the result of
the Presidential struggle these preliminary bat
ties are highly important, and will be looked
forward TO with deep interest. No doubt the
division of the democracy which has taken place
on the Presidential question will be carried into
the State contests and the relative strength of
the Breckenridge and Douglas factions will be
tested, as well as the strength of Bell and Lin.
coin; and there will be some indication also of
the amount and value Of political combinations,
should any take place. The first skirmish will
be fought in North Carolina, where the Douglas
party boast Of great strength. The I'd of Au-
gust, therefore, may tell how that Is, and afford
a clue to the future. If be has the strength his
friends say in the South, his partisans ought to
be elected In North Carolina.

With few exceptions, the American hotels out

there Is not the slightest excuse for II, as our
people are more lavish with their money. when

grand TO attend personally to the comfort of
