NEw YORK, November Add
tional returns from all the States give
DO reason to lessen the figures oi
Grants majority OF yesterday. On the
contrary, Oregon, counted as Demo
cratic, is conceded to the Republicans
by 1000 to 20O0 and Virginia is much
in doubt, Republicans claiming from
5000 to 5000 majority. The latest re-
turns from the interior indicate that
Grant has carried New York by over
$4,000, with Dix only few hundred
behind.
The Tribune comedies 243 electoral
votes for Grant, and claims 81 electoral
votes for Greeley in five states-Geor-
gis, Louisiana, Maryland, Tennessee

A large crowd gathered at Cooper
Institute last night. under the impress
sion that the pools lately sold on the

was postponed until to night. IT is
understood about S250000 has been
invested in pools on the mayoralty.
Large amounts have been lost on
O Brien, who sold very high in the
pool sales.

the Tribune.
Horace Greeley ia the author Of a
card in the Tribune this morning an
uounciug his resumption Of the editor
ship Of the Tribune, which he relin-
quished on embarking in another line
of business six months ago. He states
that hence!orth it shall be his endeavor
to make the Tribune thoroughly inde-
pendent journal, treating all parties and
political movements with judicial fair
ness and candor; but, counting the favor
and deprecatiug the wrath of no one, il
he can hereafter SAY anything that will
tend to heartily unite the whole Amer
lean people on the broad platform Of
universal amnesty and impartial suf'
frage he will gladly do so. For the
present, however, he can best commend
that conservatism by silence and for
besrance. The victors in the late
struggle can hardly fail to take the
whole subject Of Southern rights and
wrongs into earnest consi 1eratlon,
and to them TOR the present he
RENTS it. Since he will never again be
a candidate for any Office and IL not in
full accord with either OF the great
parties which have hitherto divided the
country, he will be able and endeavor
to give a wider and steader regard to
the progress of science, industry and
useful arts than in partisan Journalism,
and will not be provoked to an indul'
sepce in those bitter personalities which
are the bsue of journalism. Sustained
by a generous public. he will do his
hest to MAKE the Tribune as great a
mower in the broader field it now con-
templates, as it was when human tree
dom was imperiled in the arena OF po'
litical partisanship.
ManfOD Marble,
of the New York World, has returned
to the city in restored health, and re-
sumes the supervision OF that paper TO-
morrow.
