The TURF.-The races at Forest City Park
during the season of 1871 will be remembered
with pleasure by the friends of the turf i'm this
vicinity, not only for the rare sport and excite
ment which they created but also for their ex-
cellent management. The announcement will
therefore be hailed with pleasure, that Mr..
John S. Head has, after considerable trouble
and delay, secured a lease of Forest City Park
for the season, and will inaugurate the fall
meeting with two fine races on Thursday and
Friday of The present week. The grand sweep
stake race for purse of $3.50, between the
well-known horses Mum, Butter Ball and Gen.
tie Annie, cannot fail to be one of the closest
and most interesting contests with which we
have been favored for a long time, while the
2 40 race promises to be even more exciting
The track is being put in splendid condition,
and if the weather is favorable, our citizens
will doubtless turn out en- n,dsse and make these
opening races of the season great financial
and popular success. We trust that such will
be the case, for the efforts of Mr.. Head in ele-
waiting the delightful sports of the turf to the
honorable basis of a general public favor and
appreciation, are surely deserving of gener-
GUS recognition.

| tho present campaign is found In the fact that
| SO MANY of the merchants and active business
men of the country are endeavoring to direct il
to a proper result Very many of this class.
who for several years past have confined their
political action to merely casting their ballots,
have now become earnest workers. Among
the gentlemen of this description in our city is
). L. Hersey, Esq, who presided at the Repub-
lican meeting on Friday evening and introduced
Mr.. Dunnell in speech of some length. Mr.
Jersey has not been active in politics since the
disruption OF the Wing party; but now like
many other merchants he feels that the cleo
ton OF Gen. Grant is indispensable to our bust
ness prosperity. Representing meH of his class,
he expressed the belief that the business of
the country would be imperilled by the possi-
bility of the election of Mr.. Greeley; and that
the administration of Gen. Grant had inaugar-
ated measures which would be likely to prevent
wars between civilized nations in the future.
We made the prediction some weeks ago that
the preponderance of the moned capital of this
country would resist the election of the sage of
Chappaqua. Good men are wanted in politics
now; the clear-headed, educated, thinking
men; to give the country the benefit of ripe
thought and practical wisdom in those leading
interests that shape the material prosperity of
the nation.

New YORK, November 29-Rr. Greeleys
death is expected mOmentarily, both by his
relatives aud the physicians attending him
Yesterday false reports were aturrent in
many quarters that his disease had termi-
mated fatally, and numbers throUged the
I1i6tefG Office to ascertain the true state 0f
afnirs.
Mr.. Greeley is at Tarrytown, but his
whereabouts there is kept from the public
and bis many fTiends. Yesterday evening,
at medical consultation, it was said that
it was doubtful if he could live more than
few days. DR.. ". A Hammond, one of
his physjcians, ssid: II doubt if he will live
fOrty-eight hours longer, and ! should not
be surprised to hear Of his death tonight"
While | was at his bedside, added the
DOCTOR Mr. Weed, an old friend of Mr..
Greeley, came up, and wishing to test MT.
Greeley, said "Mr. Greeley do you know
Mr. Weed9' MIR Greeley stared vacantly,
answered that he had never met him in his
life before, and said further, i never heard
the name Of Weed before.
The Doctor described Mr.. Greeley as taIk-
ing incoherently all the time, and being
quite obstinate. Says he does not know
his own daughter. Between eight and ten
o'clock last night his condition was less IA
yOrabe than during the day. HE physi
claus did not anticipate any important
change within twelve hours.
At the African Methodist Church yester-
day the announcement of Mr. GreeIey's
condition by the presiding elder greatly af-
fected the congregation present. His CON
ditiUn has everywhere awakened feeling
Of sympathy, and though it is feared that
he can not 1t cover, many are unwilling to
surrender the hope that he may yet be
spared.
Mr.. Greeley failed very much during the
night apparently sinking rapidly. He is
sleeping quietly this morning.
A dispatch has just been received here
announcing the death of Mr.. Greeley at
ten minutes before seven thls ey ming. He
was conscious at the time, and passed
peacefully away.
The Iri5w1te issues tho following bulletin:
"hr. Greeley died very quietly and with
out pain, at ten minutes before seven this
evening. he was conscious and rational.
