NFw YORK, November 5th.-The Mel and En-
press has personal letter from T. B. Haskell, ed
iter OF the Boston Herald, in which he says: 1--WE
shall probably have larger vote than ever before.
and think Butler will be defeated by from 10000
to 25,0O0 votes. Butler is really at the head of q
Butler party including nearly all the Democrats, a
remnant Of Greenbackers, and some 5000 Butler
Republicans. He will lose some Democrats and
some Butler Republicans this year, but the Repub-
licans will win if they do win, by getting out the
vote"
not think there is any doubt Of the election Of the
Democratic State officers and that the Legislature
will be Democratic joint ballot. The State Sen
ate, however, will be very close"
In New York the feeling is gaining ground that
the power OF Tammany will be badly damaged to-
morrow. The Democrats are betting on a Repup-
lican Senate.
