N. Y. n2 6t The vote cast as late as 2 o'clock was vc sinali, though the indications were that the Do moc st i ciu'th was yet to come. Our reporters have faithfully i isitcu every polling place, and carrtuVly enqr' en the existing stale oi'afliin. As result of ob.rerYation we cor e'udc the t.ti: ticket is vo, mixed; concerning it there was little or iso interest, and it is very doubtful as to which side is ahead.

THE COUNTY TICKET varies, according to the nomiiwcx. Th vf John McNameee as Sheriff is very larSe, coming from all parties, and endorsing mst heartily their favorite name presented by the Democratic partv. Mr. Troy, as County Judge, polls the full strength of his party, and we judge there is no clonic of his election. ABOUT THE CITY TICKET there is of course a great deal of excitement.

The republicans nre very active, and had polled almost their whole by ten o'clock. Many of them voted for Kaltilleisc'i, forming, in. deed, his entire strength. The Democracy stands and siiim by Mr. PriDce.

Up to 2 o'elock hnt a moiety of strength was cast rs many of the honest, hard working voters who commence labor at 6 o'clock oro unable to vote until after 13. We are glad to see that no Democratic votes are being cast for either icncade, but that the entire strength of the party i for the standai dbearer of their organization." THE APPEARANCE AT THE POLLS was indicative of any thing but intensity of feeling. There were cowds of men and gangs of boys, ticket distributers and various canvassers, but the only people who seemed at all anxious about the result were the candidates and their immediate fiiends. THE ALttERMAXIC SMUGGLES seem very close. In many of the Wards there are stamp candidates the field, so that split tickets are in order.

The Democratic nominees are polling the full vote, and the prospects are good. In the 1st Ward Mr. Whitney is endorsed not only by the Democracy, but by many of the best men in the TTard, and will be undoubtedly elected by a large majority. Air. Anderson in the 3d is met by the great popularity and undeniable efficiency of Irs oV doncnt, Mr.

Wallace, but is making a good run nevertheless. The vote is very close between Ennis and Marrin in the first district of the 5th Ward, but that Mr. Ennis will be the successful candidate we have good reason to believe. In the Ward Mr. Murray is doing splendidly, and will be elected beyond a doubt! In the Ninth Messrs Ternan and McGrorty divide the Democratic strenth, making it more easy for Mr.

B. 0. Hathaway. Mr. Kimball, in the Eleventh Ward, is running ahead of his ticket and will make it a diflf thing for Mr.

Murray to succeed. In the Eastern District. The appearance of various polling places in the Eastern District are very similar. A building gorgeously arrayed in highly colored powers, a knot of men disguised in overcoats and segars, their Angers gloved in (straight or Independent ticke.s, much talk, buojo nbe oners to bet 50 to $10 that some favorite is elected characterize every poll. Tne uncertainty of the weather now raining, now smiling in sunshine, adds to the anxious i eel iDg which a iriana'ar contest always produces, and everywhere the Mayoralty balt'e is hotlv waged.

Our reporters have visited all the pol's and re tnrn with the follow ijg: THtSItENTH WAED.

Sending an Infernal Machine. The Recorder's Court in Chicago is cd in thetnal of N. Hodge, a lawyer of North Adams Mastuchusetts, for the crime of sending an "in! fernal maciainc" to a man named Whipple, with the intent of killing him. In 1849 Hodge iu ventcd and patented un improvement in railroad brakes, which hab since come into extensive use on the Western railroads. Whipple purchas territorial rights for the sale of this patent, but the parties subsequently quarrelled, and on the 1st ol January, ISO he received a box at a railroad ofliee in Chicago, which proved to be filled with explosive materials.

Forewarned by un anonymous letter, Whipple escaped injury and afieiward caused the arrest of Bodge lor the rime of which he stands charged. The bo is thus described by the Chicago Timex Mr. Whipple did not, ui proceed to open a box of which he had reason to entertain uch ugly suspicions with the indifference with which be would have cracked an eg On the contrary, he took the first step in openin" it bv i'ih i ting two sharp wedges, united u'trans Wfc bar, tor a litttle distance under the coyer ietlicn, in company with several others, took tut box to 1lie pier, between warehouse A and anu placed it, with the wedges uppermost, inline Oiattly under weights, which Were raised to the top ol a rune by ropes 300 feet Ioiil', so as to' give tho. who handled them good iee ivav in case orilunger.

The political campaign which closes with the going down of the sun has not upon the whole been vigorously conducted. The men nominated for State offices by both parties are entirely unexceptionable, and even the Tribnn; has attached the personal character of but one of its political opponents on the State ticket. Up to the time of the Pennsylvania election the Democrats were so confident of carrying the State that le than ordinary exertions were made on their side. The shrewdist Democratic politicians counted upon a majority of between twenty and forty thousand. The fact that the October elections so frequently indicate the result of those which follow then, woke up the Democrats to the necessity or counteracting the influence of the election in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and brought Goveraor Seymour before the people.

His sspeeches during the campaign are worthy of his feme. Though delivered to vast and enthusiastic audiences of admirers and supporters they are not marred by a word which might not be uttered before the most Kplpnt ncaamMn 1 3 m. 1(1 lauu assailed with vituperation nnpr.ralleled in our political history Governor Sejmour was never once provoked to retaliate. His clear argument in contrast with the wild and unmeaning charges of his scurilons opponents marks all the difference between the statesman and the partisan. The opponents of his party sink into insignificance in the face of the disasters which attend their policy, and the appeals to them to eave themselves by saving his and their country No man who read his four or five admirable addresses but felt he was in communication with one who rose above the passion of the hour and thought of bis whole country and of all his countrymen.

The opponents of the government he regards as misguided, criminal, but still Ins countrymen. He speaks like a man who feels that the task before him is to diffuse that sentiment of nationality which he himself feels He mil not, for he cannot, believe that this terrible war has rendered it impossible to unite these States by links of affection and brotherhood which are stronger than STlHS. Tnnrr Kinlinn force. His speeches have been worth, many thousand votes to the Democratic ticket, and in our opinion, had he entered into the campaign earlier, and canvassed the State thoroughly there would have been no doubt of the result to day. As it is the chances are that we shall crry the State.

In the interior large gains are confidently counted upon, and if New York and Kings County do as well this year as last the result of the contest is not doubtful. In this county the chauces were, a month ao, that we should give the State ticket a majority of seven thousand votes. The Republican party was disorganized. Its leaders were intent only upon securing the spoils of office, for these they were willing to abandon everything else. The men attached to the party who sincerely believe in its principles were disgusted with the manner in which the party was managed.

The fact that a man was identified with the party in the past seemed to he an insuperable objection against him as a candidate for office. Thev cast about them for Democrats who might be seduced from the party allegiance by the hope of office, and it seemed impossible to find a single man of prominence willing to identify himself with them. Col. Wood was pitched upon as the last resort for Mayor, and he probably would have declined the nominotion if he could have retained his place and his piinciples. The Republicans have to choose for the highest executive office in the city between three Democrats, the difference between them being that two of them are renegades and one of them is faithful.

The conduct of Mr. Kalbfleisch is indefensible. Undoubtedly he had it within Ms power to injure the parLv and he has done it. Even he himself, blinded as he is by his own ambitious arrogance, does not hope to be elected. The efforts of his parasites are to day concentrated in dividing thu Democratic vote, leaviPg the Republican wards undisturbed.

The party will earn the contempt of friend and foe if this treachery i not punished in the future as it deserves to be Our faith in the loyalty of the Democratic rnaEe is so strong that wc do not fear the result despite the efforts of disorganizes and rene" 'ade appealing not to citizens but toa distinctive nationality for support. Mr. Prince will be elected, we believe, and now that all we may say will hardly influence an man one way or the other, if he be elected he" will make an honest public officer. His character has been assailed, but, unfortunately, in our political con tests no man can hope to escape calumny. His honesty is unimpeaehed and unimpeachable The election of the balance of the ticket is assur ed, and we congratulate the tax pavers in advance in having selected for the highest executive office of the county so honest and so gentlemanly a man as John McNamec.

The imponam offices of Street Commissioner and Superintendents of the Poor will be in the hands of the right kind of men men who will serve their party by the public. More or less bitterness has been duT played during the campaign, but it grew entirely out of the fact that apostates from paity and renegades from principle were opposed to us. 1 be contest is closed and no fair and honest Republican can say that we uttered a word against him on other than political grounds. We have endeavored to elect what we believe to be a ood ticket i tipon it fulfill the we have made in their name If in the State we are defeated we slid regret for we shall see in our defeat a determination on the part ot a majority of the people to wander still further away from the pith which leads to peace, prosperity and union, if anv does.

discussion of technical subtleties or deep aDa'ysiT of public law. This time, at any rate, the "explanation" will be amusing, if not and that our description of tlie case may be verified at once v. transcribe Iro a New York paper some o' "headings'' UDder which tbe new intelligence is introduced to the world. "Ireland to be Free." "Programme o2 a new Irish Revolution." "200, 0C0 oi the Sons of Erin ready for Battle." "The Secret of England's Back down on Question." "Mystery of the Fenian Brotherhood Explained." Vhat became of the Irish Directory Fund." "Faugh a Balhvh." Terror of the coming Storm." "Ireland's Dsliver ance at Hand." There is the programme. What it all means, or is designed to mean, shall now he explained.

Till the other day, "the Fenian Brotherhood" was a reputed mystery. America is now the land of Secret Societies, but this Brotherhood tuuiaiucu tne greatest secret ot alt, insomuch that the brothers themselves did not know it. Now, however, it has come out. The association was a Society of Irishmen, aiming at the "liberation of Ireland from British rule," and the "creation of an Irish Republic" moulded upon the desirable and well approved model of be American Union. It was "essentially a revolutionary organization," and, although not one in a thousand of its alleged members hid anv knowledge of the splendid programme sketched out for them, we are assured that they were all so thoroughly disciplined and obedient as to represent a formidable army available for immediate service.

On a signal given the Brotherhood would have been ready to send from America to Ireland "an armed force of "100,000 men, as well as munitions, arms, ships, and everything, in fact, that the new Irish nationality wonld need." An opportunity was anticipated in the outbreak of war between tbe Federal Government and Great Britain on the question of the Steam Rams in the Mersey. The Revolution was to have come off this very autumn. The Fenian Brotherhood had ascertained that Ireland had entirely recovered from the effects of the potato famine; that the Encumbered Estates Act had been "most beneficial that the harvest had been abundant; that "the country, on the whole was tolerably well off;" and thai consequently' having been so well governed and rendered so prosperous, "it was never in a better condition than at present tor an insurrection." So, bavin" drawn that characteristic conclusion, the Fenians thought the time for the expedition had arrived The rupture between tbe two governments on the "ram question" was expected the other day, and three landings were to have been forthwith effected in Ireland one in the extreme west one near and one in Kinsale Harbor. Unluckily, the brotherhood was betrayed, and the truiter, it is intimated, was no other than William H. Seward, on whose "secret countenance" the Fenians had been taught to rely.

That intelligent statesman, it seems, was well nffeetpri to wards the brotherhood, but still better affected towards his ov.n countrymen. He bad no great objection to an Iiish secesbion, but the detention of these two sieam rams interebtad himfar more So we are given tr understand that in puttin" a. stress upon our government he let slip the ore it Fenian secret, and informed Lord Rucself not only that tbe United States would go to war upon the foint, but that the Fenian Brotherhood would take the opportunity of appearing in Ireland with an army of 150,000 or 200,000 men. This discovery startled the British government, and Mr. Seward carried his point, though at the cost of the new Irish revolution.

Since, therefore the game is up and the secret out, and the expedition demolished, the leaders of the brotherhood have thought it an eligible occasion for telling all about themselves, and proclaim'tno thcir diappointment to the world a genuine Irish resolution, and one bespeaking tbe true nationality of the association. The Brotherhood hope for another opportunity, but we doubt if their case is very promisine If they have got aOO.OOO men anywhere, or the tentu part of that number, we are not surprised at Mr. Seward's having his eye upon them and endeavonDtr to retain thpm in a v. They are more likely, we fancy, to find their way to lennessee than to Tippcrarv. The "flepr steamships" and ponderous Ironclads of the projected Armada will be wanted at home.

The i weiaiKuteiniiieni is more disposed to get men jiuui ireiana inan to send men over theie. Of yujoc me ming, it coma nave come off, would have supplied a charming bit of retaliation. The new Irish revolutionists were to have been yiumyuy iccogmzeaas Demgerents," and then, when the British cruisers were blockading Cork and Dublin, New York shipbuilders pri vately to build steam rams on Triah imn.i Mr. Seward was to reply to the remonstrances of uiu. nuDbcii uy lamenting tne inability of his government to bring the laws to bear upon the offenders.

The "tit for tat" would have been complete and the parallel absolute, with one slight exception tliat, whereas we had fonnd the civil war and the belligerents ready made to our hands before we recognized the facts, ou lrtcnds across the Atlantic were to the warm Ireland and create the belligerents for us in order to recognize them ate. wa' ds Perhaps the reader has been curious all this while to learn the meaning of one rather sin nifi cant line among headiup "We do not deny that we ourselves approached the question, "What became of the Irish Directory liind: with more interest than ordinary i uuds are ticklish things, and it is often hard to say what does beeome of them. In this cuse however, the account is presented as offering great expectations. It seems that about the yea" liWSasiini of money had been raised by an Irish Directory" in New Tork for the support and encouragement of an Irish insurrection rr neu tue Bcneine proved abortive it bee line necessary to dispose of this money, and it was accordingly lodged in the hands of trustees, to be put. out at interest, and allowed to accumulate lor another opportunity.

This fund now constitutes the financial hope of the Fenian Brotherhood. It is to supply them with the sinews of war; but we can hardly help concluding either that the expedition will be done very cheaply or that the army will run short of money i'he ongirial sum amounted to just 14,000. No doubt interest in Ameiica is very high, especially jf reckoned greenbacks, and 15 years would allow of a good deal of accumulation. Still, we hmey that 28,000, or 30,000 will not go so far in a war as the Brotherhood seem to imagine It is now, we imagine, to be supposed that everything about this famous mystery is known As there appears nothing for the Brotherhood to clo, they have called a great meeting. Notice has been tent to all the "circles" of the Brotherhood t.

nit each "circle" is to dispatch its "centre" to the Hall of the F. Chicago, 111.," on the 3d ol November next, where grave and important matters are to be considered. We hope it is not true that the consultations are to be secret. Having made so opportune a disclosure of their organization and aims, the Brotherhood need not resort to mystery any longer. They may as well jiublish their debates: but.in themeantime, there is one secret which they have not explaned, and winch we really think the most interesting of all.

What is "Fenian?" What language is it? What i the root, origin or meaning of tue word? Is it trse or "Ogham," or only Americui slaii" 1 I cople do not seem quite to know how to spell it; still less how to explain it. However, the Fenians have given the world one little piece of evidence which may be useful to those who like an "Irish question" to discuss. They have acknowledged that Ireland is well off and well to do, and we suspect that most non Fenians would regard that fact as by no means suggesting the propriety oi an immediate insurrection Police.

Tue rooms or ihe gremmar ad primary department were profusely decorated with American and P.ssian flags, very tastefully intermingled, for which the oiflcers of the fchool are indebted to the kindness of Admiral Paulding. The scholars were all neatly dressed, the boys wearing rosettes, of the national colors, and the girls for the most part arrayed in white dresses, with scarfs alicnately of red, white and blue which gave a very haDdsome effect to the ene.

The visitors arrived about ten o'clock, and were received by the principal of the school and conducted to the Grammar Deportment, where a small platform bad beenneatly arranged for their reception. Ex Alderman Douglas, on behalf or the officers of the school, made a short address to the visitors, thanking them for the honor conferred upon the school by their visit, and hoping that they would carry away with them a pleasing im i oeiuust caerisuca oi our American institution. Admiral Lovinski and Admiral Farragut both responded and expressed their pleasure at the reception which they had received. The exercises were then opened by the singing of the Pussian hymn by the school, after which Master C. F.

Chlehesier, a bright, intelligent lookiDg led, welcomed the visitors on behalf of the pupils as follows Admirals kd Gestlemsx America's young sons and daughters would tain give utterance to the unspeakable joy with which your presence here to day ails us Our hearts know but one feeling our lips would spent but one glad word, "Welcome!" From out our tittle world within these walls, wc a looking anxiously, trustingly, to tlie great world bevond, noting down in our hearts each friendly word spoken, each treacherous action done to our country in its hour of peril. Thy nation has always extended to us the right hand of friendship and to day the glorious sun of Liberty, which for many years your own land and ours, has been hidden by the dark clouds of servitude, rises slowly and grand to its zenith. "We thank God that Abraham Lincoln the emancipator of four million slaves on the new world, can, through your honored self, grasp warmly the band of Alexander, the emaneipator of twenty million the old.

Frank Wheeler, a floe looking boy, recited "The Great P.epublic is no more," very sptrit dly, after which the pupils sang "My Country, 'tis of tnee," very effectively Miss Hurd pt esiding ai the piano. This was succeeded by a recitation, Uncle a very pleasing and humorous poem on the Puritan and the Cavalier, which was excellently delivered by Master Wm. Cogg3hall.

SPOltTS AND PASTIMES.

Chess Matters. Chess MATT.RS. Those difficult mental tasks ala Prone 'o subject themselves to. termed blindfold games, are likely to be frequently un d' rlaken this reaeon by those who aim to excel in that peculiar department of chess. A week or two ago, Mr liorch of the Paulsen club of New York a very superior nidation of chess layers, mostly Germans un jKut games oi cuess simultaneously without seeing the boards or men.

and lie succeeeded in winning three out of ihe eight, and completed all the gam. in four hours irom the lime or commencement. On Wednesday evening last the President ol the club Mr Liigene Jirenzmger essayed the same difficult mental feat, and succeeded in four games out or eight. Mor pby once tried ten, and lost Bix or them; Paulsen once a) ed twelve and won eight orthem. He said he could play twenty.

It is truly an interesting sight to thoie acquainted with the intricacies or chess, to watch a series of these gaineB played, and to note the accuracy with which the blindfold player follows with his "mind's eye the infinite yarit ty cr moves made by his numerous op jK.nents. Skill in blindfold play developes great powers of memory, audio those who do not kDow chess well it seems quite a miracle how the game can be played in such a manner. The chess clubs of the metropolis are all in a flourishing condition, and enter upon Hie season full of hope for a uccessful winter's campaigning on the mimic battle fields of their chess boards. The New York club rooms in the University Uuilding, are well attended by their select coterie of members. The Paulsen club rooms 1S9 Bower are resorted to regularly bv liiirmm tegists, and the rooms or tlie lirnoklvn dub are nirrhtlv occupied by the members thereur.

Bkooki vn Chess Cwb. Od Saturday evening last, the Brooklyn Club opened their new rooms, located at the Hamilton Buildings, corner of Court and Joralemon streets, room No. 19. The location is central and the rooms are very desirable ones for tbo purpose. There are two one for general uso, and one for those engaged in Bpecial match games.

Next Siur day a meeting is to be held by tho club for the nurnose or considering a proposed amendment to the by laws whereby a reduction In the amount or the annual dues maybe made so as to allow ofa greater number of mem hers. Tbe present rates exclude numbers of cbess lav ers who would gladly join Hie club but for the fiict ihkl the dues required are above the nienns they provide for such purposes. Were the annual dues reduced to three dollars, a large influx of members would be the result Within a fow weeks Mr. Brenzinger will play a serlos of Windfold games at the rooms of the club, and after that the llrst annual lournament of the season will be com menced. Capt.ltajmond is now the Secretary of the club and as he is a first elats player, and takes great interest in Ihe gome, no doubt the club will flourish under his efficient management or its business affairs.

Paul Mokphy, 1Iic great clicks champion is now in Paris, where he has been sojourning for over a year past. At the breukieg out of the rebellion he at once took side with the rebels in his native city New Orleans, but when Farragut took that place Moriiby was wine enough to make retreat, and he managed to find his way to Paris, which no doubt will henceforth bU his home, as he is of 1 ncl, parentage and or French tastes and habits.

and he now Bhows receipts for the same to an amount over $200.

On re commendation of Capt. Woglom the soldier surrendered a long dirk tnire and a loaded pis.ot with a dger attachment, prefcniDg to let law rule rather than murder.

Ihen on Saturday evering he went to his own house and opened a flstic campaign on the amorous mp'e suuuu meantime lorlhe "watch."

Un persecutors are milkmen, whose ideas as to the diet of eoWs diri materially from those of Mr. Uildreth, and who think short tails highly becoming ruminatury animals while a tail lees than a yard long is an abomination before the spectacles of Mr. Uildreth.
