The American Fleet OF the Lighiship.

OFF SANDY HOOK, OCt. "a, 1871.
On Monday morning, just before noon, the feet
weighed anchor and slowly steamed out line ahead,
beyond Sadly Hook. There was much signalling
from flagship and much maneuvring. The
four battle ships steamed line abreast
out upon the dark waters until the
land was out OF sight and sky and sea
met all round on the horizon. The afternoon
was warm, the sun bright and the sea calm. the
whte-winged yachts contending for the historic
Cup could no longer be made out Tor they had long
since been speeding to the goal afar on under the
hills OF staten Island and in view OF the light and
life OF Gotham. The ships are headed about
always by signal from the Admiral, and come back
with more norherly course than had been taken
coming out. nagship Is like destiny. 1t is i'm

AS the procession drags its slow length along
Broadway the bells OF Trinity church will "r1ng a
merry peal" and extend cordial welcome to the
strangers from their coppered sides. This is to be
done by special consent OF the pastor ana wardens,
who do not desire the Old historic sanctuary to
be lett out IN the arrangements.
Instead OF having stand erected on Union square,
facing Broadway, 1t has now been decided TO build
1t the north side, opposite Seventeenth street,

placing the front part so that the visitors
will be able TO witness the parade along Fourth
avenue as far as the corner OF Eighteenth street.

tee Is, that from this point the review march past
can also be SEEM The occupants OF the stand will
consist chiefly Of the members OF the Reception
Committee, their ladies and the invited guests from

Fourteenth street and conveyed from there in omnl-
buses TO the square. Until yesterday morning 1t was
understood that the Prince would review the troops

but IN an interview between MAJOR Montgomery and

vailed upon the former to agree TO allow the review
take place from the balcony OF the first floor WIN
dow. This would seem TO be the best plan, as 10
would leave more room for the guard OF honor TO
deploy IN front and enable them 10 occupy both
sides Instead OF only the side directly opposite.

PRESIDENTIAL FIGURING.

The New York Herald, which is
not especially fond of the Demo-
cratic party or of Democratic politics,
has been figuring on the next Presi-
Dental tournament from which we
extract the following prophetic notes !:
There are 317 electoral votes. A
candidate must get 159 to be elected.
If we take the States that are gener-
ally acknowledged to be Democratic
and those which were carried by the
Democrats at the last election as an
indication of what the vote of the
Electoral College may be, the result
would be about as follows:
