The usual PLACID current OF affairs at the Navy
Yard was disturbed somewhat yesterday morning
by the sailing OF the frlgae Congress under sealed
orders. This vessel has been put IN trim with all
possible despatch since relieved from duty In con-
necIion with the reception OF the Grand Duke
Alexis, and, while her destination is matter OF
conjecture Is more than probable that she has been
ordered to proceed to the West Indies that the inter-
ests of the United states may be little better protect
ed there In the future than they have been In the past
Quiet conversations were INDUCED In by several
OF the Officers who visited the yard yesterday, and
one or TWO OF them went so far as TO say II would
not be surprising II this country and spain had Sc
riOus complications that might not be settled BY
letter.writing, but in the good Old way OF hard

According TO this statement In which the position
assigned New Jersey may be objected to, 1t will be
majority OF ninety-nve electoral votes. BIT glance
at the table Is sufficient to convince the candid that
means be relied upon cast republican electoral
vote in 1872. Among such states may reasonably be
necticnt together with Louisiana, South Carolina DINA
and, perhaps, Mississippi. Should New York, TO-
gether with California, Connecticut and Louisiana
or South Carolina, pronounce against the republican
eleven electoral votes. Should the four last named
cratic, ana New York republican, the democratic
candidate would have majority OF twelve electoral
votes.
1t ls worth noting. for the comfort OF despondng
democrats, that II the two Senators In each state
were not USE, In determining the number Of cleo.

the above tables, the republican party is credited

not represent the popular vote, but arc added to
