General Results.
New YORK, November 6.-The
HeraLdS election estimates give to
Grant twenty-eight states aud to
Greeley eight, or 268 electoral votes
for Grant to 80 for Greeley. The
popular majority for Grant is placed
at $50 900.
The Herald editorially says that
whether the result will be accounted
for by the popular strength of Gem
eral Grant on the one hand, or the
weakness Of Greeley and feebleness
of liberal Republicans combined with
the Democratic bolt on the other
hand, it is in mary respects the most
remarkable OF any Presidential elect
ion in the history of the country.
The Tribune gives Grant 260 elect
oral votes at the lowest, and 50 for
Greeley, with the rest doubtful.
There is scarcely parallel, it says,
in the completeness of the rout and
triumph. 1t says that Liberalism
could not stand the enormous outlay
of money expended by the Republic
ans in the canvass. Grant now has
four years more of power, with heavy
Congressional ajoritles, and in what
ever reform be may seek to effect he
will have the aid of the Tribune.
The World places Grants popular
majority at 1000. 1t says the de-
feat is due to the Democracy's sur
rendering to Greeley; that the de-
moralization consequent upon the
New York ring speculations of a year
or two ago disheartened the party,
and caused the nomination at Balti-
more; that the party bad not recov-
cred iD time from the Tanmany faint
to do anything until toe late.
The Times gives Grant 300 elector-
al votes and Greeley only 40, with
the balance doubtful.
The Sun says: "The Liberal Re-
publicans have been faithful to their
pledges but the Democrats have beat
en- Greeley BY not coming out to
vote"
