Hence the strength of the party of Solon Chase. Tn New York the situation is very different. The result in Maine is likely to draw out the whole republican vote and to lesd tos heavy acoession from the olid independent element in the large cities. Men who heretofore have not felt the nccessity of registration and voting will now comeé forwatd in order to pro‘ect theirbusiness interests from falliug into the hands of a party which plays the financial hypocrite and shouts at onoe greenbackism in Maine and hard money in the Empirs etate. Tae request of the sewer contrac- tors that they bs permitted to close up, temporarily, Tenth strect between Jackson and Leavenworth, seems to us, very ill-timed. Next week will witness the opening of the State Fair and a large inflax of peoplo to our city. Tenth strest is one of our lead- ing thoroughfares. In ordinary cir- cumstances, it ie essential to speedy transit in our city. During Fair week there will be still greater necessity for its being open and in good repair. The great majority of exhibits, ex- ‘hibitors and visitors will be landed at the Junction with the Union Pacific and B.and ML tracks, and wonld be seriously incominoded by having to turn into Ninth or Eleventh instead of seeking the centre of the city by the direct route. Should travel be directed to Ninth street, the bridzo across the creek, which is already in ashaky condition, whould have to bear a etill greater strain, and the re- sults might be disastrous in the ex- EDWARD K.

This The Herald has often told its southern readers. The | democratic party bezan to go into the | minority as 570n as the sonth became eolid, end it is probable that it will remain in the minority just as long as it is cumbered with & solid eouth. The northwest, whos: a liberal tariff, free in administration, w publicans this year, but the solid south will keep that great tier of states on the republican side. Nor is this ua- natural or even unjust. What good reason of public policy can any south- ern man give for the solidity of the south? Oar advice to southern men is to surage the independent movement where in their states; to use ev. -y effort to divide rather than unite the white voter to send Senators Bay- d, Hsmpton, Butler, Lamarand er of their best men to canvass in sych states as Illinois, Wisconsin and Indians; to form two parties in the south with intelligence and property in each,and to make sure in this way that whichever party has the national government sontherr interests will s cared for. That is true eouthern statesmanship. The present policy is mere purblind folly and leads to still further disaster and disappointment. BLACK HILLS NUGGETS. News from ont side campsis encour- aging.

With the floating voto in New York City principle counts for little, and the personality of a democratic candi- date for much. In 1864 McClellan was as well and favorabiy known in New York city and Brooklyn s is Haacock to-day. In the coanties of New York and Kings Lincoln receiv- d 57,519 votes, snd McCleilan 99,45 majority for MecClellan, 44,916, the state outside those two counties Lincoln had 311,216 votes, and Mec- Clellan majority for Lincoln, 48,965. ion to princlple and Dev, enthusiasm for Lincolu called out a full republican vote in the state at large, and_overcame the democratic majorities in the two large cities Iu 1872 Greeley had in Few York and Kin, 907. counties a majority of 26,- But Grant came from 1he state rge, outside ¢f New York and Kinge, with a majority cf 80,228, and had in the stace a clear majority of over 50,000. Greeley failed fo excite enthusiasm among the New York City bourbons, while Grant polied the fuil strength of his party. In 1876 Tilden received in New York and Kirgs counties 170,080 votes t0 97,567 for Hayes; mujority for Tilden, 72,513, or over 45,000 greater than Greeley's majority. In the state, outside of New Yorkand Kings counties, Hiyes had 491,640 votes, and Tilden 551,860; majority for Hayes nearly 40,000. Tilden car- ried New York City because his name was & power among the demozrate,and because his agents were masters of frauds and chicanery.
