NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-The HeraLd'S cleo
ton estimates give to Grant % States and
to Greeley s, or 26S electoral votes for
Grant to 80 for Greeley. The popular ma
iority for Grant is placed at $4,000. The
Herald edtorially says that, whether the
result will be accounted for by the popular
strength of Gen. Grant on the one hand,
or the weakness of Greeley and the feeble
ness of the Liberal Republicans, cOmbin-
cd with the Democratic bolt OH the other
hand, it is in many RESPECTS the most re-
markable in the history of the country.
The Tribune gives Grant 232 electoral
votes at the lowest, and 7S for Greeley,
with the rest doubtful. There is scarcely
a parallel it says in completeness and tri-
umph. 1t argues that Liberalism could
not withstand the enormous OUTLAWS of
money expended by the Republicans in
the canvass. General Grant now has four
years more power with heavy Congress
ional maiorities, and in whatever way he
NAV seek to effect reform he will have the
aid of the Tribune.
The World places Grants popular ma
iority at 800, ,O00. 1t says that the defeat is
due to the Democracy surrendering to
merely that decentralization consequent
upon the New York ring speculation of q
year or two ago, and the disparity the nOu-
nations at Baltimore. That party had not
recovered in time from the Tammany taint
to do anything until too late.
The Times gives Grant 300 electoral votes
and Greeley 43, with the balance doubtful.
All but election districts are heard from.
The Mayoralty vote of this city give Have
meyer, Republican, 81 $50; Lawrence. 49,
sos :; O'Brien, Apollo Hall, 34,30l, Have
meyers plurality being 3,454. The AS
sembIy in the State will probably stand A
Democrats to 81 Republicans. The Senate
is Republican, holding over from last
year.
The Tribune, commenting OH the result,
says the Liberal Republican strength i'll
North Carolina, Vermont and Maine was
nearly neutraliZed by the Democrats who
wouldn't eat crow when they could get
from five to twenty dollars for not eating
it.
