It ithe pecaliar province of politietans to prophery, without any apparent reasons to doit their position, the positive success of one side or the other. They cannot argue from a middie standpoint. Although !m- bued with the notion that opponents have an oppor- tunity of success they will still insist upon the ides that victory is certain to perch upon their banners. IN THE VARIOUS DISTRICTS : little excitement was manifested. Only one tesve was anticipated, and therefore not much enthasiatm, was displayed. Asa general thing !t was apparent, as far os this city 1s concerned, that the voters had made up their minds, from surrounding indications, which candidates were almost certain of election, The fact that there was very slight opposi- tion in various quarters, thereforc, robved the ap. proaching contest, as far as Now York city is con. cerned, of many of its exciting elements, For tn- stance, numerous candida’ had retired; others were satisfied that their support would be exceed- ingly weak. So that, after all, the local mtuation yer- terday was by no means as interesting as it was ex- pected to be. This apathy, however, may be partica- lary applied to local contests, The partisans ot Hayes and Wheeler never gave up hope 18 was earnestly maintained on the part of the republican element that the day; and it was just as stoutly Inaugurated President of Hayes would carry argued that Tilden would be tho United States in 1877. The tale will probably be told to-mght. Doubts will tet at rest and many an anxious heart will be quieted. It may ‘be noted that very few close contests van occur in the city, #0 far as district candidates are concerned. That, however, in the Fighth disirict between General An- son G. McCook and General Elijah Ward appeurs to be conspicuous. Both candidates are great favorites with the people, and the prevailing impression 1s that eitaer one would make an excellent roprosentative. Al- though a republican General, McCouk, whose name is | historic In connection with the rebellion, is very pop- ular with the democratic classes, and his numerous admirors claim that he will be clected by a large ma- avery animated contest. ‘The candidates are Colonel Benjamin A. Willis and Levi P. Morton, The latter gentleman appears to bave a very influential support {rom alt parties, but tt is asserted that the democratic candidute will carry the honors, In any event Mr. Morton’s candidacy must warrant strong support. The issue ts, thereforo, looked forward to with great inter- est. These are the oniy Congressional districts in which there is likely to be a severe struggle, Alto- gether the outlook in this city for to-day’s election 18 Peaceful in the extreme. AT THE DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS. The confidence shown at tho rooms of the Demo- cratic Central committees, at the Everett House, all day yesterday, was remarkable. The Democratic Com- mittco was apparently as certain of victory as though tho result bad been once forall decided. Mr. Magone spoke in no uncertain tones. “T tell you,” said he, with impressive earnostness, “that itis too late for any furtner appeals and argo. ments, The flat has gone forth, and AS SURE AS THE SUN WILL RISB and set to-morrow Governor Tilden will be elected by @ magnificent majority, As far as I am concerned I have as profound a faith in Governor Tilden’s election as I have that there is a God in heaven. | tell you it’s too late to change the result now; the battle isdo- cided and the victory is ours, Why shoula I deceive you or myself now that we are at tho eve of tho eloc- tion? LIhavo no earthly motive for doing so. I sim-° ply tell you the naked truth—that’s all.” “But, Mr. Magone, suppose Mr. Tilden is not elected after all?’’ the writer expostulated, “Then,” he replied with a smile, we are the worst beaten people that ever lived. But we shail submit to the will of the people with perfect cheerfulness and without amurmuor, If my countrymen differ with us let them deside, All 1 want is A FULL, FAIn VOTE, Isball pray with bended knoe to-night that wo may have a fair day to-morrow, so that wo may have a full vote and a complete expression of the will of the people, I shall never complain if, with a-full, fair yote, we are defeated, never; alll do complain of is thatthe republicans havo tried to win this campaign by the vilest system of vilification, by the basest calumnies that ever disgraced a Presidential cam- paign, They charged Mr. Tilden with perjury, they have accused us of wishing to bankrupt the country and prepare a job raid upon the Proasury; they have tried to link our cause with that of Tweed. It is by uel infamous, manauvres that they have sought to win this campalyn.’* “Na gon beligge there will be a liberal use of money at this election ?”’ A FIGHT AGAINST ODDS, “No, sir; I belteve that there is not money enough eo republican party to buy up the American people. jouk at this canvass we have carried on with the ident of the United States and the whole treme: dous power of the government artayed against us with the Seoretary of the Treasury as the moutnpiec the Attorney General the subservient tool and the Secretary of the Interior the managing head of the re- blican party.

If we have adopted them in any way, it ts because the republica recipi- tated this mode of warfare apoo u ‘by should you APPEAL TO CLASS Fx projudices?

The majority in Kings county would bo about 15,000, so that Mr. Tilden’s ma- Jority in Brooklyn and New York would be 74,000, Morcover, Mr. Magone predicted that Mr. Tilden would carry the State outeide of New York and Brooklyn, d Mr. Magoue, “to particularly ful to the Hxratp for the course campaign, It has given botb always been fair, in one word ir. We have none bat feolings gratitude for tho Hera.p,” in vi spect an Th spatches received by the National Committee were of the most cheering character. AFFAIRS AT REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS, At tho Fifth Avenuo Hotel yestorday the excitement eontinued up toa very Jate hour, The lobbies of the hotel and the commitice rooms wero thronged by politicians of every dogreo, The rooms of Mr. Thomas Murphy, candidate for County Clerk, wero crowded a the whole day and evening by local politicians, the large majority of whom wero fellow countrymen of Mr. Marphy, It is thought that ue for County Clerk and | William H.

Another jour- nal assured the public that the democratic politi intended to peaction » syste of intimidation of Voters, the same as deem successfully practised in the South.

Yesterday, from morning till nigh: 6 lobbies sur- rounding Commissioner Davenport’s headquarters in the Post Office building were crowded with a mixed mass of people, most of them United States marshals, waiting to qualify for office and receive their instruc- tions for to-day’s work. Inside the closed and bolted doors a score of clerka were busily at work proparing warrants to be irsued to-day for the arrest of persons who have fraudulontly registered. Now and then the doors were opened and a filo of mon taken in for in- structions, Moro than 5,000 warrants, it ie said, are already prepared against men who have cither regis- tered ilicgally or possess fraudulent vaturalization papers, The greater portion of the names are irom the east sido downtown districts. The latot those persons who have rogistered with @ view of votng fraudulently has becn placed in the hands of the marshals. The fraudulent rogistration is prima jacie evidence of an attempt to vote illegally, and the presentation of the ballot will be sufficient ground for arrest, District Attorney Bliss stated to-day that none but persons for whom warrants are held would be arrested at the polls. United States Marshal Fiske yestei force of special deputy marshals, w between 500 and 1,000 men, He admits an occasion for so doing, but makes the sppolaimeats as a matter of precaution, It is also said that Custom House leaders have called upon him to order out fed- eral troops to aid in making arrests. Mayor Wickuam, Corporation Counsel Whitney, Po- lice Commissioners Smith, Wheeler, Nichols sod Pr. hardt met last night at the residence of Commissioner Smith, and discussed the question of the numcrous ar- Tests Which the United States marsbais intend to make, Corporation Counsel Whitney took the ground that it was the right of every person registered to swear his voto into the ballot box, even if inspected, and that the yote suould be counted until ap investigation should establish its fraudulent character. The opinion was supported by the Mayor and Com missioners Smith and Nicnois. At was finally decided that the United States mar- shals should be allowed to arrest all ected for whom warrants had becn issued; that tuoy sbould immediately be taken before a United States Commis- sioner for a hearing, and that if at the hearing the sus- Pected person should show that he had been improperly arrested he should be permitted to vo'e. Ttis said that Mr. Charles O’Conor has carefully examined the Federal Election law, and thay he has given his opiniou that 1t 1s defecttve, inasmuch as it doos not provide for making atrests for violations of its provisions. The Tammany Hall General Committee, who regard the appointment of so many marshals as simply an effort to frighten away from the polls timid aomocratic Voters, have assigned counsel to attend court in every district on behalf of their constituents. To-day the Post Office building will be almost com- pletely deserted by the officials with the exception of the United States marshals. None of the courts will sit, The delivery room of the Post Office will close at ten A. M., and the office of the Postmaster will not ro- opon till Wednesday morning. In connection with the business of the District Attorney’s office a curious in- cident occurred yesterday. A man was arrested on suspicion of baving counterfeit money in his posses- sion. He was taken before Assistant District Attorney Pullman, A package was jound upon him which, on deing opened, was found to contain counterfeits of the republican electoral ticket, the names of the demo- cratic candidates being substituted for the names of republican State electors, The thing has been thus explained as a ruse on the Boys in Biue, whoreby the back of thetr republican ticket was counterfeited by some of the democrats. The messenger was arrested and brought before the District Attorney, 28 above stated, ‘There boeing no offence proved m this novel way of interfering with the elec- tive franchise tho accused had not the bonor ot being confronted and put io the inquisition before Commissioner John I. Davenport, and Mr. Pullman, like Pitate of old, on the first charge, seoing **no ot- tence in hin,’ let him go free, The conference was requested by Mayor Wickham for the express purpose of secering co-operation and avoiding aconflict of authority aud instructions be- tween the Police Departmont and the United States marshals, Several important conclusions wero arrived at by this conterenee, rendering impossible auy real disagree- ment between the two authorities. It was conceded upon all sides that the general obli- gation to preserve order and keep the peace was upon the Police Department and not upon the Un:ted States marshals, Acting within the line of oMcial authority, the United States marshals are entitled to the assistduco of the Police Department in the same way that they are on- titled to the assistance of all good cluzens. There was uo diflerence of opinion in the couference except as to one proposition of law, which dillerence ‘was relieved by the practical suggestions of Mr. Daven- port asto the instructions which he would give the marshals as to tne manner of petiorming their daty. In the first place, bo would allow entire publicity with regard to the cases ip which warrants had been issued for fraudulent registration, so that if mistakes had been made they could be discoverod, and persons eatitied Teally to yote would be in a position to prove it, «nd persons not entitled to Vote nobody desired to protect. In the second place, with regard to all cases for which warrants were not jasued, if, upon being chal- lenged, they take the oath and tho vote 1s received by the Inspectors, they are to vote subject to arrest and punishment if they have voted illegally. In the third placo, United Siates Commissioners are to ‘be placed at ‘hres or four points in the city, selected on account of acecesibiliiy to the various polling places, before whom all persons arrested are to be at once taken and their right to voto paxsed upon. It was arsumed, from the experience inthe past of tyoso arrested, thata number at Teast would bo dis- covered to have been wrongtully suspected and some mistake to have oecarrod which could be explained at the tine, Aud finally, with regard to all who are held, it was agreed that all who desired could stilt go before four gentlemen, two from ench — sid Mr. = Marbury and Mr. Olney representing the democrats, and General Bur. low and Alderman Billings representing the repnbh- cans, und it they said that, in their opinion, the man should bo permitted to rote, he shoutd still be allowed | todoeo, This arrangement seem necessary security against any abuso gt the power to arrest upon the aay of election, It was not assumod by avy one that any abuse of power bad been contem- plated, but it was deemed desirable that there should harmonious action between the authorities apon election day, and each be satinfod with the entire good faith of the other. These genttemon will sft all day at the hotet corner Union square and Fifteenth street, FOOTLIGHT RETURNS.

The maip hotels of the city swarmed wilb excited men Jast evening untila late hour. The conaition of the streets forbade curbstone assemblages, which, in some measure, added to the rush for the hotels. Lobbies, hallways, doorways, barrooms and reading reoms were all uncomfortably crowaed with individuals who had but a single tho and that was tho result bi "8 Al thee ris Avenue and the Ev- ouse wore, Of course, the particular centres of interest, being the headquarters of the party committees. Canvassing opinions was the absorbing and exclusive amuscment, while each per- 20D ip tho throng had dofinitely settled the whole mat- ter beforehand to his own personal satisfaction. All the points of the contest were eageriy discussed, though particuldr attention was givou to speculation upon the result in this State.

One of those flaws Of weather which sometimes spoil great pageants marred ap affair of lesser ‘m- Portance last evening ani curtatled its procedure a good deal. The Laverty Zouaves, of Jersey. City, ac- companied by the yohn Hart Third District Battery and the Abbett Light Guard were visitors to the Patrick O'Connor Tilden and Hendricks Campaign Clad of the Twellth Assembly district of New York, and within the contemplated amenities of the occa- sion were a torchlight procession and the serenading of Smith Ely, Jr.; Hon. & S Cox, Mr. Bernard Retlly and M Woltman, one of the demo- cratio cindidates fof Coroner. The programme was carried out so far as the torchiight procession was concerned, but onder the circumstances it was deemed isable to dispense with those deli- eate popular attentions which were originally shtendod toward the geaticmen abo’ mentioned, Mr, O’Con- nor’s mep, numbering over 100, and dressed i red campaign shirts and black giazed caps, met their visit- Ing friends at tho Dosbrosses sircet terry, aud a pro- cession was.atonco formed, The New York men led the way, followed by the Laverty Zouaves in thetr rakish uniforms, the Jobn Ha and the Abbets Lig!

Their toute was through Canal street, South Fitth avenue, Fifth avyenuo, Twentieth street, Third avenue and through East Thirteenth street jato the T Assembly district on the east side of the cf A pa was made opposite the Manbattan C on Filth avenue, and here tho effect was very pretty, for the reason that the Elijan Ward procession, which had come up Fourtecnth street, went by ‘at that moment. The procession stopped again for a few moments in frout of Governor Tilden’s house, in East Twentieth sireet, but it seems that the Governor was all the time expecting it to puss the Everett House. It did not, however, take that route, but went across to the east side, where fireworks were discharged in great abundance, The visitors from Jersey Were thea conducted back to the terry by thetr escort of the Twelfth Assembly district, WITHDRAWALS AND CORRECTIONS.

Matters are muchly mixed in the fleld of Jerney politics, in Newark the democrats aro full of enthu- siasm. Those of them regarded ast disposed ta brag say the State will surely go for Tilden by any- where from 8,000 to 15,000 majority despite the tact that they seem as poor as church mice, almost entirely lacking in organization and having as good as no State committee. They declare themselves confident algo of carrying the Legislature, which elects a United States Senator, and throe If not four out of the seven Con- gress:onal districta, They claim the Third, Fourth an Seventh as eure, and the Second and Fifth probable, with some prospect of carrying tho Sixth. The latter is the Essox district, It is now represented by Judge Tess, democrat. The candidates are Thomas B, Peddie and William A. Rightee. Peddie is a wealthy trunkmaker. Rightee is a wealtby lawyer. There it roat disaffection on Peddie becanso of his lack of earning.» The bloc lights in bis own party will oppose him also because he is a foreign born eitizen—a Seotch. man, Rightee isaJerseyman. Peddie’s iriends, how: ever, declare themselves confident that they will pali him through by a decreased majority. The democrats talk of being able to carry five or six out of the nihe Assembiymen from the district. They have nominated very popular men. Tho republicans are haadicap; with several men who aro notoriously illiboral in their social views. Yestorday was published in tho leading republicas organ ot Newark ‘tan address to the poople of Easex,’! signed by 160 merchants, bankers, insurance men, lawyers, &c., in which they opencd by saying, “We ppeal to you as business men, a8 parts of the indus. trial classes, as workmen, mechanics and laborers, te come to the help of Hayes and Wheeler. We know that in the event of their clection wo can act togethet solidly asa business commanity, contident tn our fa. ture and safe in our resourses of the present. The road hes plain before us.
