TIE ADMINISTRATION PRESS ON 3tR. GREELEY.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Nr. Greeley continues to
be bitterly assailed by the Administration press
in New York. The Times calls his brief card
"a hodge-podge Of impudence, mock modesty,
fash philosophy, and Pecksnif6an morality"
and insists that the people still have score
against him that must be settled. The meaning
Of this is that the Times is making Systematic
effort to absorb the circulation Of the Weekly
Tribune, in which it is zealous1y assisted by the
Postmasters. The Times at present has con-
siderable weekly circulation. nearly all Of Which
was paid for in q lump by the Grant Campaign
Committees.
TIE "woRLD" on THE NEXT ISSUE.
In reviewing the contest just closed, the
World comes to the front again with the Free
Trade issue. It says the Tariff resolution in the
Cincinnati platform Was complete miscarriage,
and the sooner the Democratic party dissolyes
it's co-partnership with all who aide with Mr.
dreeley's protective notions, the better. It
thinks il the nominee Of the Cincinnati Conyen-
tion had been anybody but 8 most stubborn and
ferocious Protectionist, q living movement
might possibly have resulted in permanent al
lance. It anticipates that the able Republican
advocates OF Free Trade, who got up the Gin
cinnah Convention, will again come into the
dispute with all their former zeal.
THE GOVERNOR AND 1IAToR-ELECT.
Governor Dix and Mayor Havemeyer have
been carefully interviewed, and neither is dis
covered to have as yet any settled policy. Dix
admits that he doesn't even know what salary il
paid the Governor OF New York. He expresses
very deep regret that single word VAS spoken
in the canvass about the religious faith Of any

from either the Democratic or Libaral, but IN
what respect he could not predict.
Havemeyer thinks the Mayor and Aldermen en-
joy too limited power under existing laws, and
viii favor change.

The Herald tells that Jimmy O'Rrienfee1 very
sore about the deceptions practised upon him.
He WAS cheated On every side. The Inspectors
Of Election we're all against him; bis ballots
Republicans hoodwinked him into declining the
regular Democratic nomination, and then cheat

voted for Havemeyer. The Republicans gave
$4,000 in debt. The Irish deserted him, because
they thought he WAS going against Mr. Kernan-
The Times treated him unfairly, after he had
built it up and put money in it's pocket by
furnishing it with the information Of the ring
