which may be accounted for, from the fac
that when the electors went inro the contss
one year ago, both parties felt confiden
that strenuous effort would win tile day
hence nearly every voter turned out-ani
the full city vote was polled.
This year the Peoples Party had every
| reason to be sure Of success-in fact ther,
WAS not shadow Of doubt about it in any
sound mind hence, hundreds who would
have como forth and sustained the ticket
had they believed il in danger, stsid awsy
from the polls.
There was alss some feeling Of dismay In
the Republican camp. yet, under the asssr
tions Of their organ that victory WAS within
grasp, they made the best effort they could
but it was Of no use-the odds were loo fear
full. In the Sixth Ward, by use Of bogs,
tickets, they reelected their Alderman, j
N. Frizzsll, BY majority ot 81, while th,
city ticket of the People was carried in ths
same ward BY IN average majority oi

and Napoleon Ill often perhaps sighs (in
the interests of humanity to think
what happy family the Continent would be
If France might enjoy even the faintest shadow
of hegemony. His policy, alternately bold
and timid, humanitarian and reactionary, con-
clusively shows that despotio power cannot
safely be entrusted even to philosophers who
have what is called the popular fibre. The
Empire is not peace. 1t has not justified the
first blast of trumpets with which its chief
entered the political arena. Neither, on the
other hand, is the Empire war. The Empire,
to Europe, means suspense. How long Prus-
sia will consent to have the sword of Damooles
hang over her head has yet to be seen; but If
she does not mind it, and if 1868 is to close
quietly in spite of all the rumors of the
autumn, one cannot but allow that suspense
is not so bad but that certainty might be
worse.-London SATURDAY. ReUiew

The following letter remarks the New York
Tribune of TINS morning, which has been
handed to US, purports to have been written by
Mr.. John L, Hoffman. From our knowledge of
that gentleman's character, we do not hesitate
to pronounce 1t iorgery:-
To the Chairman OF the Democratic State
Committee Dear Sir:-I desire TO protfer my
sincere gratitude to my Democratic friends, and
particularly to our mutual friends William M.
Tweed and Peter B. Sweeny, for having given
me the nomination for Chief Magistrate OF the
great State OF New York, and also TO al the
legal voters who gave me their support. Since,
however, 1t is well known that large numbar
OF illegal votes were cast TOR me by unnatu-
rallied foreigners and dishonest rutlians and
on forged papers Issued and prepared by
vilaiDous of1ice-holders and seekers, and
believing, as / do, that were it
not SO nv competitor, the Hon. John A. Girls
wold, would have been elected by very re-
spectacle majority, l feel in honor bound to
relinquish my claim to the position and to
assure you that l stand ready at all times to
serve the interest of the parry, and particularly
the interest of Mr.. Sweeny aud Mr.. Tweed, in
the position of Mayor, Street Commissioner, or
any to which l might be fairly elec.ed by the
legal voters of our city.
Your friend, JOHN L, HOFFMAN.
