The Radicals of New York are at
their old tricks. A meeting Of federal
officer holders was held 10 that city re-
Gently, at which was discussed the policy
of inaugurating some means by which
fifty or sixty thousand 'naturalized oiti.
sen' may bo deprived of their votes
They propose the registration law for this
purpose, which requires sach man to Civ.
not only bis residence, but the exact To-
cation Of the room he occupies. There
are many new streets in some portions of
the city, where tenement houses are not
numbered. Those living in such places
may possibly be deprived of their votes
by iricksry. This conspiracy will meet
with disappointment doubtless, as the
Democrats have Wind of it, and will
prepare to avoid it.

The Radicals are becoming alarmed at
the decrease Of their msjorities in some
Of the most Radical states where cleo
tions have taken place. and are mussing
their forces for the Indiana and Penn

money that have been forced out of the

gantly. About Eve HUNDRED thousand
dollars Of this money was expended in
Maine alone, and yet the vote there fell
far shsrt Of the election just before the
last Presidential contest. They feel Ger
tain Of Iowa, but are much concerned
about Ohio, and consider Indiana and
Pennsylvania doubtful in the extreme
They also express great confidence IN
their final triumph, but they show their

The journal Of Commerce on the
Result.

This old Democratic paper stood strictly nu-
tral during the canvass, and now 1t says:
There will be general feeling Of relief in all
parts Of the country that the contest is over
The strife was 40 full Of personality and bitter
ness while it lasted. that all but extreme parti
sans had become wearied Of il. and were ready
10 hail with rejoicing the day Of peace. The
very magnitude Of the victory and the defeat
will contribute not little to the general salts
faction with the result. The viclors will nat
urallfy exult at their extraordinary gains; and
the defeated will feel much less sore and chafed
than il they had missed success by the barest
chance. This is the tone Of most OF the papers,
md the current expression ofsentiment on every
side Of US.
We do not look with the same complacency
upon the sweeping success Of the dominant
party. Our misgivings do not grow out OF any
ohagrin at the defeat Of Mr.. Greeley, whom We
could not under any circumstances support for
such an Office, nor out Of any partisan hostility
TO the successful candidate. They spring from
. careful estimate of the natural effect upon the
leaders Of the successful party Of such an unex.
pacled triumph. Most OF them hoped for, and
doubtless looked for, the reelection of their
standardization. but few il any were 10 sanguine
