New York, Nov. 6.
The Tribune say that three fonrths
of the Republican journals published
in our city, were either neutral in
the contest, or telling their readers. it
would be better for the republican
cause to have the Republican ticket
beaten this fall, and we could hardly
expect to hold our own in the city or
State. But the detection in both is
far greater than could with reason
have been anticipated. 10 let the
election GO by default, it was held and
agreed by the bummers and camp
followers, would crush out what they
are pleased to stigmatize as radical
ism, and render inevitable the nomi-
nation Of Gen Grant for PRESIDENT
Such considerations and calculations
have kept fifty thousand votes from
the polls, and insured the overwhelm.

OUR LATEST TERRITORIAL ACQUIsI-
TIoN.-The fleet we sent to look up
Alaska, found 1t after drifting about
some days in fog. This same fog
seems to be fixture over that hybo.
rean region it only lifting, as it is
said, about thirty days in the year, so
that any astronomical observation can
be taken. Our purchase in the West
Indies is subject to earthquakes and
hurricanes. A late visitation of both
seems to have either swallowed up and
destroyed in some way one part Of the
population, while the rest are flying
away from further calamity by leav-
ing these islands. What will really
fall into our hands is the wreck Of
some islets without much value of any
sort. The harbor so much coveted,
and which was made the apology for
this purchase, is one where the waves
rise sixty feet instantly, urged forward
by an earthquake, aud overwhelm
any city that is so unfortunate as to
be near it. For both these acquis-
tons our people are to pay the equiv
alent in greenbacks Of twenty odd
millions Of dollars. But our. excessive
wealth and freedom from taxation
coudone all such hard Largains.- 81.
