lion.
The Herald editorially says that
whether the result will be accounted
for by the popular strength of Gen
eral Grant on the one hand, or the
weakness of the Liberal Republicans,
combined with the Democratic bolt,
on the other hand, it is in many re-
spects the most remarkable of any
Presidential election in the history of
the country. -~
The Tribune gives Grant 260 cleo
toral votes, at the lowest, and 80 for
Greeley, with the rest doubtful
There is scarcely parallel, it says,
in the completeness of the rout and
triumph. 1t argues that Liberalism
could not withstand the enormous
outlays of money expended by the Re
pubicans in the canvass. Grant now
has four years more of power, with q
heavy Congressional majority, and in
whatever reform he may seek to eff
feet he will have the aid of the Trib-
me.
The Tribune further says:
s'The Liberal movement was at
one time formidable, and had pros
poets of success. Had not millions
been expended to arrest its progress
in the State elections of the last three
months, it might have swept. the
country. The Liberal Republican
strength in North Carolina, Vermont,
and Maine was nearly neutraized by
the Democrats who wouldn't eat crow
when they could get from five to
twenty dollars each for not eating it.
There was nothing purchasable in
the Keystone State that was not
bought"
The World places Grants popular
majority at 100000. 1t says that
the defeat is due to the Democracy's
surrendering to Greeley; that the de-
moralization consequent upon the
New York Ring speculation year
or two ago disenheartened Democrats
and caused the nomination at Balti-
more; that the party had not recover
ed in time from the Tammany taint
to do anything until too late.

In a recent speech in New York, Secreta.
ry Boutwell, said that as far as he knew
there were but three ways to resume specie
payment, to-wit: 1-''Resume" according
to Greeley. 2-Reduce the 1886, 100000
of paper currency at once SO that it shall
not exceed the amount in coin. 3-Wait
till time and the progress of the country
shall make this money as good as gold
The latter plan is the choice of the Secreta
ry. The country will unite in saying that
it is the wisest of the three.
