PRESIDENTIAL.
New York Gives $4,000 Majority.
Arkansas and Alabama Go Radical
Greeley Barely Saves Kentucky.
warmOth Pulls Louisiana Through.
The Views Of the Leading Press.


II thinks Grant has carried Virginia and
Louisiana. Only four States and forty
three electoral votes, it says, are sure for
Greeley. and this cannot be increased by
more thar 2 Estates and 23t electoral votes
additional. The average Republican ma
iority iu this State is claimed TO be $4,000.
The World estimates Grants popular
majority at 590,9l6 and gives him 269 elee-
torsl votes to 80 for Greeley. Dix's major
ity in the State will not vary much from
that of Grant. Herman is ahead OF Greeley
in large portions of the State, but he falls
some four thousand behind in Brooklyn,
Long Island, and Staten Island. Kernan's
vote in the Republican wards in this city is
less than Greeley's. His vote is also small
er than Greeley in the German districts,
while Dix's is larger than Grants there. In
all strong Democratic localities Herman
leads Greeley. Herman carried Utica, his
own city, by 324 majority, while Grants
majority was 236.
The Tribune gives Grant twenty-three
States, and 243 electoral votes. 1t claims
| Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Tenn essee
and Kentucky for Greeley, making total
| Of 81 electoral vCt IS, and asserts that sew
eral States, making an aggregate Of ", are
| still in doubt. The Tribune gives Grant
| 5000 majority in New York State.
| The Tribune says the result in this State
seems to point clearly TO two conclusions:
That a marked per centage Of the Demo
Gratis refused to support Greeley, and that a
| large per centags even of those who sup
/ ported Seymour did rot vote at all. The
| Tribune is well pleased with the results of
| the city election. Though its candidates
we're not elected, it says there is an end to
the era of fraud and violence 10 the me-
tropols.
S.. John, Republican, is reelected in Or
ange distric1. He was first reported de-
feated.
The Herald thinks, from the latest re-
turns. that Grant has carried Virginia.

The heavy gains reported to-day indicate
