THE srATg

The New York Herald (Rep.)
shows that New York is the pivot
State upon which hangs the result
Of the Presidential election. The
Herald says:
We have seen no claim by the organs
or spokesnen Of either political party
that they expect 10 carry the Presiden-
lial election without the aid Of New
York. Both sides admit that the eleeto-
raj votes Of New York are indispensable
to success, aud both express confidence.

can have a deeper interest than an est.
mate Of the grounds on which each party
hopes, or processes to hope, for success
in this State.
Pdma facie. there is a presumption
that the party which carried a State 10
tie last election will continue TO hold it
There ia nothing to weaken this pre-
sumption in the elections which have
thus far been Leli during the present
year. Vermont and Maine, which we're
Republican in 1875, are Republican 10
1876 without any material change of ma.
J%orities. Connecticut, carried By the
Dem ocrats in the spriugof 1875, was also
carried by the Democrats in the spring

to hold in Ohio, in Indiana, in West Vir.

hold in New York the State will have a
Democratic majority, as it bad last year.

THE Chicago Times, in its head
lines, chronicles the result of the
election in Indiana in the following
language:
The loyal lament.
How do the Radicals sit solitary; how
are they become as widows.
They howl sore in the night, for Indi-
ana hath dealt treacherously with them.
Grantism hath ~grievously sinned;
therefore is it cast down, even by its

Its fllhiness is in its skirts; it remem-
bereth nothing; wherefore it takes a

How doth Hayes own State speak
feebly; how doth the Bourbon rejoice.
Moreover they say: This is the result

NApoIaon,n Wonderfai memorv.

The Emperor Napoleon was at
Erfut. A legion of kings and
princes had come to humble their
crowns before his regent royalty.
AT one of the soirees which he gave
at this brilliant court, the CONVEX
8ation turned on an ancient ponti-
fetal bull, about the date Of which
there was some doubt. An Austri-
an prelate indicated a period which
the Emperor contested. 81 am
better informed than your majesty
on such subjects, > said the prelate,
" and / think | am certain Of what
! state"
And for my part" replied the
Emperor, 81 do not say | believe;
] say | am certain you are deceived.
Besides, the truth may be easily
a~scertained; let such a work be
brought, and if | am wrong, | will
hasten to acknowledge it."
The book was brought. The
Emperor was right. The whole
assembly were astonished at such
an excellent memory on the part of
one whose head was constantly oc-
cupied by q crowd Of other subjects.
"When | was a lieutenant" said
the Emr error. These simple words,
+" when / was a lieutenant" pro-
duced a singular effect on all pres
ent; all the representatives Of the
old m~onarchies looked at each other
smiling. "When l had the honor
to be a lieutenant of artillery"
continued the Emperor in a louder
tone, 81 remained two years in
garrison in u city Of Dauphin,
which had but a single circulating
library. | read three times the
whole collection, aud not a word Of

escaped me. The title Of the book
which has Just been brought figured

1t is said that the grandson of
the King Of Italy, Prince Hanber's
son, now about six years Of age, is
brought up in a most remarkable
manner. The only foreign language
he is taught is English, with which
he is already tolerably we'll ac-
quainted, and which he is to master
before proceeding TO any other, the
growing importance Of English
speech having been duly appreciated
by his relatives. Another inter-
esting feature of his education is
the indifference paid to his rank by
all who surround him, and the ig-
%norance in which he has so far been
kept OF his possible future king
ship. The result remains to be
seen when the kinship comes. The
little prince is said to have a great
taste for mechanical studies, which
may prove useful to him if any un-
toward event should disturb the

ment Of Italy.

DAVENPORT, Iowa, October 20.-This
morning the Atlantic and Pacific Tele
graph Company served notices on the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Rail.
road Company that they would proceed
to condemn a right Of way for the tele.
graph along the railroad right Of way.
The railroad company presented to
Judge Hayes a bill for an Injunction
against the telegraph company, to re.
strain such contemplation, and to re.
strain the entry upon the right Of way
Of the railroad. Judge Hayes granted
the injunction. This week the Atlantic
and Pacific also condemn a RICH. of way
along q partof the Kansas City, Coun
Gil Bluffs and St. Joseph railroad, in
PottOwattamie county, and was proceed
ing to condemn in Fremont and Mills
counties, Iowa. To day application
was made By that railroad company, to
Judge Reed Of the District Court
for the Council Bluffs District, for
an Injunction, after notice to the
telegraph companies to restrain further
condemnation and to restrain the use Of
the ground already condemned, and after
a full hearing Judge Reed granted an
injunction. Some interesting legal
questions are thus presented as to the
right of a telegraph corporation to con
denim a right Of way along a railroad
right of way previously acquired, and
they will doubtless be solved only by a
decision Of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
