The same lists close again at five P. M., at which hour the contest will have been decided, and the fate of the belli- Berents will, as soon as a host of ready politi- (pal reckoners can accomplish the count of the wanquished and the vistors, be made officially ee The Heratp bulletin, in advance of ts morning issue, will, a3 usual, present the Yirst account of the result of the fight according o data and figure, To secure an accurate re- rt the most perfect arrangements have been made to ‘‘herala” the news to all parts of the wity. Tho inevitable “calcium” will shed its prilliant light upon the result of the contest, Bo that all “who run may read,” and take home with them, as they pass the Heratp Dflice, the assurance that the party of disor- anizers have been overthrowa, and that the \ city and its good government is secured in the ands of men anxious for its welfare and pros- perity. To accomplish this to-day, however, there Joust be no “backing in coming forward.” here is a combination of men—picked men— ‘om two political parties whose motto always to ‘rule or rain.” The leaders of these parties have failed to rale, and the conse quence is they have abandoned their parties ‘and tried to subvert them. They have failed ‘Zo accomplish the ruin of their friends, but in 6 effort have ruined themselves. Such is fhe party of disorganizors to-day. V olitically they had not a leg to stand upon. As.a party Mhe only stil! ihey surreptitiously exalted #hemselves upon will be knocked from under them this evening, and they will, one and all, precipitated to their propor level. There are really only two questions as to party to be tried in this contest, and they may be summarizod thus:—The question of ‘the party of progress, of improvement and ad- development of all our resources as a city, the enlargem nt of our docks, the beautifying of our parks and reserved grounds, the open- Ing of railway facilities from one end of the feity to the other, from the Battery to Harlem ridge, leaving no stone unturned that may fend to the development cither of our internal rave! and accommodation, or to the no less important consideration, a quick transit from ‘our cily’s centre to the favorable points of residence that surround us on every side in our rural districts; and the other the party of retrogression and disorganization, This ereat work, already commenced, has progressed mostfavorably, and it is showing fruits meet for ‘the best considerations of our citizens. On the other hand the question arises, Shall this good work be nipped in its very bud, or will it be permitted to develop itself? This ques- tion must be decided to-day—this evening. The party of law and order, of progress and im- provement is in the one scale; the party of dis- union and of obsiraction is in the other, Which shall preponderate lies in the hands of the woters, and they, and they only, can decide. Taz Penarty yor RrpeatTixc.—McLangh- Jin and Schroeder, two convicted repeaters, " were sentenced yesterday by Judge Woodruff. McLaughlin was given two years in the State Prison, and Schroeder, on account of his evi- dent ignorance of the full criminality of the act, aud his helpless wife and child, who were court, was given only six months. The first , ¢8e sentences may be taken as the average «ty for the: crime of repeating, and will doutless serve as a timely waraing to all who ‘eoutemplate abusing the rights of honest suf- Sragans in that way to-day.

Trrover tne Jupicious MANAGEMENT OF vue Boarp or Hearra our metropolis was Kept in an unusually healthy condition last summer, which was the hottest ever experi- enced in New York. Less careful and con- acientious management might have spread among us plagues, pestilence and a carnival of death. The inhabitants of this city owe a debt of gratituds to the presont health authorities. If the opposition should succeed in to-day’s election the sanitary condition of the city next summer would be likely to sutfor Seriously inconsequence. Vote for Tammany, end live! Piovs Por. who intend to vote to-day for Horace Greeley should append to their ticketa the following, which wo fiad in a Western ex- change: — Horace Greeley lately visited a Western town Whore swearing is punished by a fine of twenty-five ceuts for cach offen Some one stole his umbreila Bnd puta litter of kitteus 10 bis ola hat, and, by compronusing the matter, the $200 he gov for his a paid for lis swearing aud sour dollars ver.

Ward Rights aud State Hight», The trouble between Tammany and the Young Democracy arose in a great measure from a determination on the part of certain ward leaders to create a power in the wards that wouid coerce the city government into carrying out the schemes of those leaders, In other words, to create « ward oligarchy that would overawe the Mayor and his authority as chief magistrate, just as the Southern States attempted to effect the dissolution of the Uaion by the assertion of their peculiar notions about State rights. Every render knows the wretched result of that experiment, Its complete failure prevented the country from being divided into small States or provinces to be ruled by a class who believed themselves as much born to govern as other people were born to be governed, The same experiment is now being tricd in distracted France, where it will inevitably lead to anarchy and national ruin, So with the effori of the opposition in this city to establish a ward power, to be con- trolled by pothous® politicians and greedy plunder seekers, for the purpose of dic- tating to the chief authority what shall and what shall nob be ‘done in regard to public measures. Taken in any point of view, an influence springing from such sources cannot fail to be pernicious fo the best interests of our citizens. Hence when the Tammany Regency crushed out in its incipiency the movement of these men the city government was saved from being split into fragmentary and irresponsible municipal des- potism, just as the Union was saved from dis- ruption by the patriotism of the people and the valor of the Union soldiery, It now becomes a question whether our citi- zens wish to abolish the present form of gov- ernment, which is working so harmoniously, and fall back upoa the ward oligarchies pro- posed to be erected by the remnants of the Young Democracy faction. Let the people decide to-day, by voting for Mayor Hall, that they are in favor of retaining the present sys- tem of municipal government and are aot dis- posed to submit to a chanze, Justiog FoR THe Poor in New York has a fitting example in the instance of the poor working girl who, having put a piece of snarled silk in her pocket to save timo in winding it, was arrested, sent to a cell in the Tombs, kept there for a week, and released finally only on the payment of ten dollars to the Justice. Former Crry Coampervarns are said to have kept large bank accounts and pocketed the interest on funds committed to their charge. This abuse has been swept away by the present incumbent. Let the Tammany ticket be elected and we shall continue to be free from all sych abuses, Prince Leopold cial Exposition of Hohenzollern—His Spe- of the War Situation. Prince Leopo'd of Hehenzollern, whose candidacy for the Spanish throne was made the pretext for the war by Napoleon, is serving with the German army at Versailles. A special correspondent of the Heranp, jour- neying from Paris towards the Prussian head- quarters, sought out his Royal Highness, The Prince met him at once and accorded bim an interview. This highly interesting event is reported ia our columas by special cable tele- gram. We say sought out the Prince. It was atask very easy of completion; for this Ho- henzollern stands re:narkable among his fel- lows for his personal beaaty, physical devel- opment and royal bearing. He remained perfectly calm amid the bustle cansed by the arrivai of heavy rein- forcements to the German armies. He re- capitulated all the events couneeted with the Spanish throne question, his unsouzht election, Bonaparte’s objection and his retirement. Na- poleon was determined, however, for war. He underraied the power of Germany. He fought, lost and was ruined. The Germans were surprise |, he said, at their easy victories, France had “lost her head.” Ter generals had no fixed plan of action, with perhaps the ex- ception of Bazaine, The war is not only a national opportunity for Prussia, but affords a moment of lessoa for France. It will cure the French people of their delusions, vanity and frivolities. It may regenerate the French tation, A demoralized press in Paris afforded a main exciting instrament for the pluaging of the couniry towards a ruinous crisis; but the writers cared not for consequences, so that their present political ends we gained. Priace Leopold had a word of sympathy for Nupoleon, expressing his belief that his mind was not exactly sound, or, at the least, was not well balanced, when he undertook to fight Germany. Peace would be acceptable to the German nation, but Germany must outline its terms and Pa formula, Should the idea be rejected the bombardment of the French capital will be commenced almost immediately. This special tele detail of the interview of our correspondent with Prince Leopold of Holenzollerr supplies one of the most animated, agreeable and really important of the many and voluminous despatches which we have had from the seat of war by cable since the first commencoment of hostilities, The matier, which is piquant st accep! the mu all through, comes directly from the lips of the “highest authority” Toe Punic ImvrovemeNts which are being projected and carried out under the pre- sent city government will make New York city to America what Baron Haussmann’s im- provements made Paris to the contineat of Europe. If the famous European capital should be bombarded and battered into ruins New York will then take the place of Paris as the fashionable cosmopolitan city of the world. Every citizen of New York is proud of this metropolis, and every voler at the polls to-day should give practical expression to this honest pride by voting for the Tammany ticket. 10 Cuarrries.—-Thore Tue Boarn or Pi is probably no municipal institution in the world that does so much for poor and decrepit arities. human'ty as our Board of Publie Ch It is composed of gentlemen with kind who spare no pains, while they protect the inati‘ution against imposition, to take proper care of the worthy indigent.
