AT least twenty-five Democrats can be
counted in this town and vicinity who have said
they would not vote for Greeley. Putting the
ratio at this figure it would make about 700 in
the State. This count, however, was made
before the Pennsylvania election, since which
time the number has greatly increased Ex-
Gov. Salisbury is reported to have said, when
on his way to Baltimore to make the nomina-
ton, that Greeley would lose 200 Democratic
votes in the State, and perhaps this estimate is
correct. The State is conceded to Grant by
