prints the following communication, which
It roaclles, for as from the most authentic
source:
Mrs. Davis went to New York TO consult
chas. O'Connor, Mr. Davis counsel as to
the best manner OF affecting his release, from
prison. Mr.. OConnor told her that in His
| opinion there was but one way that it could
be done. and that was to get the representa-
tive man OF the Republican party to sign hia'
bond. Mrs. Davis inquired who that man
| was. Mr.. O'Connor replied thnt it was
Horace Greeley. She then asked him If he
would not see Mr. Greeley and get him to do
it. He replied that he had no influence with
Mr.. Greeley. and that she was the proper
person to see him. She went tehis office,
sent in her card, and was invited into his
private Office. She said to him: =. Mr.. Gree

had agreed to sign Mr.. Davis bond, and
went to him and protested against it. They
told him that they mad made count, and
that he would be elected by six majority,

A. N. Scratching and selling out was the
order Of the day. Business was generally sus-
pended, and Federal officers were stationed at
the different polling places. The official re-.

and Grant 64,5ss; majority for Greeley 24,s2s.
Herman, however, runs largely ahead Of Gree

The returns from the State show heavy gains
for Grant, and indicate that he carries the
State by 26, 900 majority. Greeley runs behind
his ticket In the country as we'll as In the city.
The State is conceded to GRAFT at the Demo.

Albany by reduced minority.
A feature of the election was the fact that
Susan B. Anthony and eight other women

THELATE MRS. GREELEY.

It is generally conceded that Mrs. Greeley,
wife ofsHorace Greeley, was remarkable
woman. The New York World states that her
character was as original and as strongly
marked as that Of her husband, but OF q widely
different type. She was of fine, delicate
sensitive, nervous organization, whose BUS
ceptibility had been increased by many years
of physical infirmity. She was OF 9 slight, ira.
gile make, and before disease and time had
set their effaclng marks, she must have had
great personal beauty. The vivacity which
her features were formed to express remained
to the last, and continued to be manifested
through dark eyes Of singular life and brilllan-
cy, which, in the animated conversations with
friends which seemed to form her chief pleas
earnestness and playful humor. She was a
womanioi very Intense nature, of acute per-
ceptions, and the strength Of conviction on q
wide range OF moral and social subjects char
acteristlc of minds OF perfect independence,
which Instead Of servilely accepting current
conventlonalities, question them and Judge
them. She was one Of those rare women who
do net look at things through other peoples
eyes, but through their own, and BY whom
formulas. religious or social, are not accepted
as substitute for living faith and personal
conviction. Her intellect was REMARKABLY
ouIck. fertile, clear and Ingenious; and II the
pulmonary malady OF which she mas peen lor
nearly twenty years the vlctln hao not uamp,
ened effort, sne would have been distinguished
AZ one of the leading spirits ofher sex. 1.-THE
Keen observations on life and society which 80
readily came to her tongue In unrest.ained
conversations with her friends had found ek-
preston through her pen, and gone into llterar
ture, she would have ranked IS one OF the
most gifted female authors Of the period. Mr..
Greeley, In one OF his books. gives pleasant
description of the manner In which his Vile
managed her domestic economy:
'.My wife, whose acquaintance made at the
Graham House, and who was long more
faithful, consistent disciple OF Graham than
was, in our years Of extreme poverty kept her
house In strict accordance with her convic.
tions, never even deigniDg an explanation to
her friends and relatives who from time to
time visited and temporarily sojourned with
us: and, as politenees usually repressed COM
plant or inquiry on their part their first ex-
perlences of q regimen which dispensed with
all they deemed most appetizing could hardly
be observedIwIthout smile. Usually 8 day,
or at most two, OF beans aud potatoes, boiled
rice, puddings, bread and butter. with no con:
dlment but salt, and never pickle, was all
they could abide; 90, bidding her kind sdieu
each In turn departed to seek elsewhere 9
more congenisl hospitality"

SALYE IMPERATOR!
WE HAVE MET TIE ENEMY AND WE
IRE THEIRS.

The Crushing Defeat or tho Liberal
Candidates, and the Reelection OF
Grant by an Astounding Majority
The telegraphic reports received at THE
NEWS Office up to daybreak this morning
unfortunately leave no room for doubling
that General Grant is re elected President oi
the United States by an overwhelming malori'
ty. Even In the Democratic stroDgholds
the Radicals have polled an increased
vote, and New York, the keystone oi
the Liberal movement, elects the whole Re,
publican ticket by a majority verging on thlr-
ty.tiye thousand. Mr.. Greeley carries all the
States which cast their vote for Seymour In
1868, with the important exceptions Of New
Jersey, New York and Oregon. Against
these losses he can only set victory In Ala.
bama, Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee,
which States were carried by Grant four
years ago. To summarize the result,
General Grant has certainly gained 2b3 of the
36s electoral votes, leaving only lib to Mr..
Greeley, with probability that some OF these
minority votes may be Topped off when the
official returns come In.
It is Idle now to indulge In vain regret, and
It Is to be hoped that the Liberals throughout
the country, although stung by defeat, will
not attempt to make scapegoat of honest
Horace Greeley, whose overthrow is due, not
to bis own shortcomings, but to the apathy, If
not stupidity, of the Democratic masses, and to
the immense power, unscrupulously exercised,
of the Federal administration. What Horace
Greeley has not been able to do, no other
anti. Grant candidate would have had any
chance to accomplish. Nor is the Liberal
dead. 1t is the party of the future,
which will whip the administration Into better
behavior during the four years to come, and
shall hurl them to political perdltion In Ne
vember, '76.
