The regular monthly meeting OF this society took
place last night n the chapel Of the Packer Institute.
IN Joralemon street, Brooklyn. After the reading
Of the minutes OF the society several gentlemen
were elected a. members and several more nomi-
mated for membership The Secretary then read .
short report upon the present condition OF the IL
brary. Since Nav last 53s volumes had been re-
ccivei. There had also been 100 volumes added "
the medical department.
DR.. Isaac J. Hayes, companion OF DIR. Kane was
then introduced and delivered an interesting lecture
upon the recent Arctic discoveries. lie remarked in
commencing that he had addressed the society twice
upon this subject recently and had come before them
this time without any particular preparation, so he
ap0logzed for eDcr0aching upon tnem with what
had been gone over before The lecturer then pro-
ceeded to recount the recent explorations which had
been made, beginning with DR.. Franklin and cnd-
ing with DIR. Peterman. Nothing further than what
mas already appeared was presented.

Such are the opinions touching this Presi-
dental contest Of Pierrepont and Stewart, the
proper representatives of the solid conserva-
tive and sagacious Union men, not only of
this metropolis, but Of the country at large;
for in this correspondence we have the senti-
ments Of as large proportion of the substan-
tial business classes of the country for the
republican ticket as in the second election Of
Lincoln, the stupid democratic leaders In their
grand Tammany fasc0 having made the con-
test of 1868 repetition of their Jfosco Of
1864. Accordingly, while the democrats are
short and have to s'shin it" for their green
backs, the cause of Grant and Colfax does not
lack money. The sinews of war are freely
given for them, by hundreds and by thousands,
from men in every quarter Of the land and
from the same convictions which have i'm
PEELED Judge Pierrepont so literally to come

November national election will finally settle

The Latest Phases Of the Spanish Rcvo-
luton.

The Latest Phases Of the Spanish Rcvo-
The two most important features OF our
latest news from Spain are the official recog-
milton Of the Junta by the United States Minis
ter and the assent Of Cuba to the revolution
airy movement. It is certainly of some con-
sequence to know that General Prim has de-
clared himself in favor Of kingdom, and that
the Cubans are promised equal representation
with Spanlards in the future national govern
ment.
All this is well enough so far as II goes. II
is the duty Of the government of the United
States, as the only government fairly represen-
tative OF free people on the face Of the earth,
to encourage all nationalites struggling for free
dom. If the recognition should prove some
what premature It will be an error traceable to
no more ignoble feeling than generosity. If
the leaders Of the Spanish movement bungle
matters the fault will be their own. The har-
monious feeling now existing between the Gu
bans and the Spaniards puts an end for the
present to all thoughts Of American flibuster-
ing. II viii be well for General Prim aud his
friends, however, to bear in mind that Cuba
must not be trned with. II justice is not found
for Cuba in Madrid IL is not far TO seek IL in
Washington. In this latter place, at least IL will
not be sought in vain. The Junta is doing wei |
enough for the present. It's liberal spirit has
been fully revealed. Almost everything now
depends on tho elections and the future action
Of the Ccrtes TIL then we must suspend
Judgment.

In the election OF General Grant is significant
event al this crisis. Looking at the proceed
ings Of tho July Democratic National Conven-
ton and the subsequent developments as to the
purposes and expectations Of the supporters,

Pierrepont says .-'I cannot conceive how any

prosperity destroyed, It's patriots insulted and

Yesterdays State Eiecti0ns-Tho Question
settlcd-Grant tho Coming Man.
The results Of the State elections yesterday
clearly indicate the election of General Grant
as our next President by an overwhelming
majority of the popular and electoral vote of
the Union. The democrats, early In the
canvass, finding the popular current in
Ohio and Indiana setting in heavily
against them, concentrated their available
strength upon Pennsylvania, knowing
very we'll that unless they could
save Pennsylvania in October theirs was s'the
lost cause" They have made, therefore, the
most desperate struggle for the keystone
State since the October election Of 1856, when
they carried 1t by some two thousand majority
and thus saved Buchanan In November. In
this October contest, however. their delusive
State majority Of nine hundred Of last year is
buried under the republican reserves beyond all
hope Of resurrection for at least year to
come; and ''as goes Pennsylvania 90 goes the
Union"
We say that this loss Of Pennsylvania, with
| out going further, is the deathblow to
Seymour and Blair. But apart from this
ticket the democracy were impelled by another
necessity to leave no stone dnturned to save
Pennsylvania. They knew that the loss Of
Pennsylvania In October would, in all proba-
bility, involve the loss of New York in
| November, from the new impulse that would
be given to the cause Of Grant and from the
general depression, which would weaken
the cause of Seymour. With the New
York democratic managers the para
mount object was and is to save
this State, in view OF the influence
and power over the general councils Of the
party which these New Workers will be able
to WELD in shaping the battle OF 1872. no
matter what may be the fate of Seymour.
The decisive consideration In his favor In
Tammany Hall was that his name would carry
New York, and that in saving New York the
party, in any event, would have q solid
foundation to build upon for 1872. Now, with
their loss Of Pennsylvania, there is every rea-
son to believe that the forty -seven thousand
year viii disappear in November like morn
ing fog from the face of the sea.
The returns Of these elections Of yesterday
will admit Of no doctoring to show q posi-
bility for Seymour and Blair in November.
The Presidential result Is as certain az any
human event in November can be, and the
public mind throughout the country will from
this day settle down upon this conclusion.
Our scanty returns as we write will not admit
Of any specific comparisons of general results;
but the figures we have arg sufficient to show
that rs the battle Of 1864 has been made the
battle Of 1868 the result will be substantially
the same.
