Progress and Prospects OF tho Presi-
dentfal Campaign.

Our political readers of every party stripe
the opinions of Senator Wilson, the regular re-
publican candidate for the Vice Presidency,
touching the probable results of the great
national battle of November next, and in the
budget of reports from our travelling corre-
spondents, which we publish this morning, of
the latest movements, developments and indi-
cations, East West and South, of this extraor-
dinary Presidential campaign.
Senator Wilson is confident of victory to
General Grant in November, 1872, which will
eclipse his triumph of 1868. He thinks, for
instance, that there ore only two doubtful
States in the North, New York and New
Hampshire, and that they may be retained by
General Grant against the combined forces OF
democrats and anti Grant republicans. Sen
ator Wilson, since the Baltimore Convention,
has had very good opportunities for testing the
pulse of public opinion as an active CAM
paigner in North Carolina and Virginia and in
the heart of the great West; but
still, as party directly interested in
tho general results, his views Of the pros
poets of this Presidential contest must be taken
with u liberal sprinkling of salt The opposi-
ton coalition candidate for Vice President,
Governor Gratz Brown, expressed his opinion
the other day at New Haven to the effect that
Grant will hardly carry three States OF the
thirty-seven. How, then, are we TO decide
when such doctors disagree2 The best tna'
we can do for the purpose of striking q pal
ance between them is to fall back upon the
reports of our travelling correspondents, whose
business it is, in the matter OF this fresiden-
tial canvass, to look vigilantly about them, to
gather the evidence on both sides and to judge
impartially according to the weight Of the facts
and the testimony collected as between Grant
and Greeley. batch of these Will be foune
in our columns to-day, and although CORE
spondents views are taken ION the wing
they will nevertheless 10 found interesting

The Slave Trade An Eastern Africa.
The information in regard to the slave trade
on the East Coast of Africa brought by. the
HERALD Livingstone expedition is already be-
ginning to yield gratifying return. From
special cable despatch from London published
in the HERALD to-day it will be seen
that the London Times of yesterday
pronounces the paragraph in the Queens
Speech relating to that inhuman traffic
"the most significant part !" of Her
Maiestys address. The Queen announced
that the government had 'taken steps intended
to prepare the way for dealing more effectually
with the slave trade on the East Coast of
Africa" and the London Times adds:-"We
suppose il is not an error to connect the an
nouncement which has just been made by Her
Majesty with the recent discovery of DIR.
Livingstone and the dispatches to the
Foreign Office brought by Mr. Stanley, of the
NEW YORK HERALD, from the great traveller. y
It will be remembered that DR.. Livingstone
stated in his letter to the HERALD that If he
could be instrumental in destroying the slave
trade and averting its horrors from the simple
people among whom it has been his lot to
dwell for SO long q time, he should regard it as
greater triumph than anything he could
achieve in the accomplishment of the task
which was the special object of his eventful
pilgrimage. We can imagine the JOY it would
afford the Christian man TO find on his
return to the coast, probably to learn in the
:~k~ nr thok
aroused to action by his earnest words, were
already stretching forth their strong arms TO,
the relief and protection of the people fol
whom he has pleaded. The promptness with
which the English government has acted
reflects credit upon its humanity.
1t is especially gratifying to know that this
solid, practical good has been accomplished
by the HERALD Expedition, in addition to the
satisfaction of the discovery of the grea,
explorer and the valuable information
obtained of the result of his researches.
If DIR. Livingstone had remained un.
visited in the wilds of Africa 70,
another two years, even If he had
lived to return to civilization, the time fol
action in this important work would have beer
Just so much longer delayed. We cannot bu
believe, too that the practical success o.
the HERALD Expedition has brought to mems
minds more vividly the idea Of the possibilit,
of effecting good in Eastern Africa, not only il
the direction of humanity aud civilization
but of business as we'll The land tho
one bold man would penetrate with nothing
| but his own resources TO depend ppol

and WIN probably serve to show each party in
the Presidential contest that great amount
Oh hard work must be performed TO
secure success for its favorite candidate. At
present the scales seem very evenly balanced.
and we shall have to wait until the great Oc-
.ooer elections before the scales will be seen 10
turn decisively one way or the other.
The New York herald., 1872-08-13

cannot remain much longer closed to efectual
missionary efforts or to the enterprise of trade
and commerce. We may soon have strong,
determined men from among ourselves such
as rush to the new-found mines, combining to-
gether to develop the resources of Africa, and
in their path will walk the spirit of freedom.
England may not be alone in the good work
she has SO promptly and so humanely under
taken.

MURDER BY MEx1cASs IN TEXAS The news
despatch from Brownsville which appears in
our columns to-day goes to prove that even
the lives of our Texas citizens who inhabit the
line of the Rio Grande, not to speak Of their
property are not now secure against the as
saults of marauders from Mexico. 1t will be
seen that two gentlemen, Messrs Alexander
and Simon, prominent merchants on the
American frontier, left Brownsville for Rio
Grande City last Saturday Some few hours
afterwards three Mexicans passed them on the
way, one of whom fired into their carriage
killing Mr.. Alexander instantly, Mr. Simon
making narrow escape from death by fight
to the bush. The assassins having completed
their work fed to Mexico. There was mourn
ing and an inquest on the American side. The
Coroners jury charges the commission of the
deed on Cortina's troops. A strong feeling
exists among the Americans for the organiza-
ton of band of men and the pursuit of the
murderers on Mexican soil. Our murdered
brother ''points to his wounds" What is to be
done2

FLOATING THE STEAMER BRIsToL.-At about
powerful steam pumps were set to work to
pump the water out Of the Bristol, and in less
than ten hours this magnificent boat was again
aaoat. She successfully made the trip from
Coal Mine Flats, where she had been beached,
to Newport yesterday, and after discharging
the remaining portion of her freight she will
proceed 10 New York for repairs.

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, November 1.-THE horse
disease is daily increasing. More than
half OF the horses in the city are infected
and yet not a single fatal case is re-
ported. There is hardly public stable
or private barn but has one of its in
mates sick, but the attacks are very
mild, and It is thought that it will soon
cease. In many cases the delivery of
freight has been rendered impossible. At
the depots of the more prominent rail-
ways it is with difficulty that the accu-
mutation of freight has been prevented,
and it was only by the active personal
exertions on the part Of local agents
and their subordinaies that the greater
bulk of goods we're removed from in
store to their ultimate destlnationi how
ever, there has been no increase in
charges for delivery. Street cars and
omnibuses run less frequently than usu
al the companies not being willing to
risk their animals coming in contact
with the disease. The wet weather that
set in last night is unfavorable, and
many horses will be withdrawn to-day
that are not sick

NEW YORK.

New York, November IA grand
Liberal and Democratic rally was held
at Cooper Institute last evening.
Speeches were made by John Kelly, A..
r. Lawrence aud others. There was
an immense attendance and much en-
thusiasm. N rs.
The Indian delegation left the city last
night for Chicago.
Apollo Hall held mass ratification
meeting last night. Speeches were made
by Messrs. McBarrett, Henry l.. Gin
ton, Judge Spencer and others. Resolu-
tions were adopted supporting Herman
and Obion for Governor and Mayor.
1t is now definitely settled that the
horse distemper is rapidly abatiug, Re-
ports from different stables throughout
the city are very encouraging. Drays
and trucks are again beginning to be
seen on the streets, and more cheerful
aspect generally is observable. The
weather is favorable to recovery, and if
it holds good it is believed that all traces
of the disease will soon disappear.
Eighty-eight deaths were reported yester-
day. 1t is believed, however, that many
deaths occur daily that are not reported
to the police. In Brooklyn, yesterday,
one hundred and foriy-six deaths oc-
Cured. Notwithstanding the fine
weather, no Improvement seems to have
taken place. The disease is raging more
violently in Brooklyn than it did in New
York, and with greater ferocity, the pro-
portien OF fatal cases being much larger.
The disease seems to have put an end TO
trotting races in this section. The
tracks are all in capital order, but no
matches are made, and poor prospects
Of any taking place this season. Dex-
