It Is believed that Vaughn will be elected by several hundred majority. It was stated to the Eaotz reporter by a few Democrats in this ward, that Britton was running behind his ticket.

This information is given for what It is worth. On the other hand, it was stated that General Crooke was not receiving his fun party vote on account of hia action as counsel in the Third avenue Bower assessment. Dntcher and Richardson, the dual Republioan "bosses," wore oaoillattng from poll to poll with tickets bunched in their fingers and honeyed phases on their lips. The Chairman of the Gorman Dcmocratio General Committee says that the Germans in this ward are voting pretty solidly for Powell for Controller. The ward will probably go Bepublican on the State ticket and most of the local, but will lose the Aldermanship.

The voting has proceeded quietly. TUc Twenty third Ward. Nothing of an exciting nature occurred at any of the three election diatricts of the Twenty third Ward, The first district especially is considered strongly Republican, but there the Chittenden ticket was deposited by a very large number of Republicans. A well known Republican named Morrow was active canvassing for Mr. ottttenden, and Ms influence had a great effect In this ward James O'Connell is (he Demooratio candidate for Constable, and Thomas Bagot ia Mb opponent.

The contest is a close one, but Mr. O'Connell'a friends are sanguine of suooesa. The betting in this ward was very light and faverable to Britton. It waa conceded that Chittenden and Britton were rnnning ahead of their tickets. Twenty ourth Ward.

In the Twenty fourth Ward there will be a oloee contest. The polling plaoe of the Seoond District, at Atlantic and Sohenectady avenues, waa surrounded by voters, but tho balloting up to noon was rather slow. The oolored men, who oomprise about one third of the voters of the ward, appeared to be holding back, and very few of them voted this forenoon. Of those who cast their ballots, several voted for the Democratic candidates for State and oounty offices. The Democratic ticket ran very evenly and strongly with the oxeeption of Bliss for Congress, who led the other nominees to Buoh an extent as to surprise his most enthusiastic supporters.

At the First district polls, oorner of Atlantic and Nostrand avenues, Colonel E. B. Lauaing was busily engaged in distributing Democratic tickets, and talking politics with Sheriff Williams, who was performing a like service for tbe Republicans. By bis eloquence Colonel Lansing persuaded seven Republicans to vote for Tilden and Britton. The Demoorats hope to carry the ward by 160 majority.

The Twenty fifth Ward. It was generally expected that there would be unusually lively times at the polls in the Twenty. mentum to tbe boat, and it was somewhat about a fortnight before the owners oared to invest in another ferrying quadruped. In 1815 Mr. Bobert Fulton diod, and Mr.

Cutting, in 1821, and the ferry wont into the hands of a company of New York stockholders, representing sixty shares. In 1833, Messrs. David Leavilt and Silas Butler secured forty four out of the sixty shares, and then ran the ferry in the interest of the people of Brooklyn. Another boat was added, but still the people of Brooklyn were very much dissatisfied. In 1836 a new ferry was started between Patchen's dock, at the foot of the present Atlantic avenue Brooklyn.

This, however, afforded but little reliof to the Fulton Ferry, which is always overcrowded. Still the people were so dissatisfied that in 1836 Messrs. Leavitt and Butler, and the widow of Mr. Cutting, who died, had an interest, were bought out for $100,000. A subscription for seven per cent, stock was made among a number of Brooklyn citizens, so as to make tho ferry really in the interest of the people.

The manager then assumed a prudent policy, and carried on the interest of the people and the company conjointly. Yet, in 1839, the value of the stock was only 63 per oent. At the same time the lease ot the South Ferry expired with very unsatisfactory results. After a great deal of squabbling, the ferries were finally given to a oompany of stockholders, numbering thirty two, at a rental of $12,000 per annum. THEY WEBB ALL BBOOELYKITES and the articles were drawn up by George Wood as the New York and Brooklyn Ferry Company, the stockholders being George Wood, Loses Van Nostrand, James E.

Mr. Henry Pierrepont, Vice President. The lessees were bound to purchase all the old boata of the company by tho lease only seven per oent. was allowed to the stockholders the lessees were much embarrassed by the difficulty which was found in paying off those (and they wore many), who preferned withdrawing from the old concern and taking their sixty eight per oent. rather than incur the risk 'of greater losses.

They were finally relievod from the embarrassment by Messrs. Leroy and Perry, who advanced $50,000, which was about the sum required. These gentlemen did not go into it as a speculation, and allowed the directors to buy in the Btock from them, so that the investment was fully reduced to $37,000. Some time after, Mi'. Perry signed his interest to Mr.

Leroy, and then that gentleman still bod his interest in the Union Ferry Company. In 1844 the stock was found to bo worth seventy cents on the dollar. When it oamo to a renewal of the lease, however, it was found that there was A STEOija OPPOSITION made to a renewal of the lease to the same company. This opposition came mainly from New York speculators, so that all Brooklyn was aroused on tho subjeot. A Brooklyn Committee was appointed, of which the Mayor was one, and it was fully decided to recoivo sealed bids.

On opening them it was found that oue of $30,500, by Mr. John Mclntire, in behalf of Messrs, Jacob B. Leroy and Henry Pierrepont, was the highest, and the leases wore assigned to them for the term of seven years, having no other view but tho protection and the promotion of Brooklyn interests, seventeen lessees were selected out of the thirty four managers, and four others to form a board. The new ferry associations wero constituted July 1, 1844, aa tho Union Ferry aud was composed of the following gentlemen: Jacob B. Leroy, Henry Pierrepont, lessees and trustees; George Wood, Joseph A.

MorBB was elected President, and E. Pierrepont Vice President. In 1844 an act was passed iu tho Legislature providing for as many ferries as was necessary for the public good botween New York and Brooklyn. A Commission was appointed and decided there should be four ferries, the Fulton, the South, Hsmilton avenue, and a new ferry from the foot of Wall Btreet, Now York, to the foot of Montague street Brooklyn. In 1850 a renewal of the leases of the ferries was granted to Messrs.

Leroy and Pierrepont, at an annual rent of $35,000 for three ferries, not taking in the Wall street. These three ferries were running at tho time for one cent fare, while the outside ferries were LOSING MONEY AT TWO CENTS. In 1853 thoro was a consolidation of tho three ferries owned by the Union Ferry Company, and the outside ones and the Company was called tho Union Ferry Company of Brooklyn, aud Including tho Fulton, South, Catharine, Hamilton avenue, Wall street, Boosevelt stroet and Gouvernour streot ferries. The nominal Btock of the Company was $300,000, with the right to increase it to one million, divided into 8,000 shares of $100 each. During the first year, at one cent ferriage, the loss being noarly $120,000, the plan was therefore abandoned aud two cent faro established.

Iu 1859 there was another change of hands, snd some of the old directors retirod, tho ferries being again bid off to the Union Ferry Company at an annual rental of $103,000, for a term of ten years. The ferries then bought and owned still by the Union Ferry Company are the Fulton, South, Wall and Catharine. These still remain in tho hands of the Company, and appear to be run in tho interest of the people at largo. The Company fs one of the most extensive and important in the country. Improvements are constantly being mado with the surplus interest over and above tho legal dividend allowed tho stockholders.

Other than tho ferries of the Union Company there are the BooBevelt Btreet, tho James Slip, the Bridge street, the recently done away with Grand street, and the Thirty fourth street to Hunter's Point, besides the old Jackson street ferry. All thoso are at present paying flue interest to the owners and stockholders, and the passage across the East Biver is said to average both ways some thirty thousand persons a day.

In tho City of Brooklyn, within twenty days afterlho rvicu of this sumnionc on you, exclusive of the day of such wrrvice, and It you fall to answer the said complaint within the time aforesaid, the plaintiff in this action will apply the oourt tor the relief demanded In the oomplaint. mabcellus, jwW PUintitT. A.LU. Mclntyre, for Alderman, has been leading Fielding all morning, Ninth Ward.

The voting in the Ninth Ward progressed very quietly up to noon. There was evT indication of a Demooratio majority of upward of 800 votes in the ward. In the first election district the polls were held at No. 239 Flatbush avenue. This district has more Republican voters than all the others In the ward, but at noon the Democrats were thirty or forty ahead.

Many Be publicans cast their ballots for Tilden and the whole Demooratio State ticket There waa a great deal of scratching on the Controllership, nearly one fifth of the Republicans substituting the name ot Powell for that of Sohroeder. Winchester Britton for District Attorney, also received many Republican votes in this district and ran well up with hia ticket. The remainder ot the Democratic County ticket, and Searing for City Auditor, was well supported. In the Second, Third and Fourth Dts tricta of this ward things were very quiet. For Assembly John McGroarty, was way ahead of bis Republican opponent SUnsori, and Archie Bliss for Congress, led all the other candidates on the ticket.

It is thought that there will be 2,000 rotes polled in this ward. Tenth Ward. First District Voters were many and active at No. 199 Court street this the Democratic State, county and city tickets were on the (ryfline, jvith some few scratch os agalnBt Britton. Seoond District Tildon and Britton were decidedly ahead in this district, and the neighborhood of No.

425 Warren street was crowded with the friends of the Democratic party. Third District At No. 169 Nevins atreot Tilden waa ahead of Dix by a majority of three to one. The city Hoket could not be computed. Britton waa somewhat in the declino in this district.

Fourth District Voting waa largely in favor of the Democratic Stato ticket, and the Republican City ticket. Britton and Powell were being scratched. Fifth District Democrats largely ahead. Some scratching against Britton. Chittenden running well.

Sixth District Tho Republicans were in good spirits, Ostrander was running well. Seventh District TUden was strong at Smith and Third streets, while Schroeder and Thomas were in favor. Voting was lively for OBtrander, and no opposition was made to him. All was quiet in this ward. The Eleventh Ward.

The election in this ward has progressed quietly so far. It is conceded to be apMtty "tight" ward, with the odds slightly in favor of the Democrats. The upper part of It polls a great many Republican votes, and a noticeable fact, at two of these polling places, the Sixth and Seventh, the Republicans are voting largely for Chittenden. First Dlstriot, Ho. 117 Prince street.

Tho reporter was told that the Democratic ticket was largely ahead. Can't tell aa to splits. Seoond District, No. 209 Myrtle avenue, Tho voting is very light so far, with a Bmatl Democratic majority. Britton may be ahead of his ticket but not by more than a dozen votes at the most.

Nearly all of (he tickots on either side are voted straight. Third Dlstriot, No. 401 Gold street. The reporter was informed that the Republioan ticket was ahead, but this was denied by the opposition party, and from the best sources, it appeara that Dix was considerably in advance of Tilden. The city and county ticket 1b claimed to be in a Republican majority too.

Fourth District, Noa. 17 and 19 DeKalb avenue Yoting has been pretty brisk. Tho reporter could not form any opinion as to how the tickets were running. Fifth District, No. 85 DeKalb avenue It seems to be conceded hero that Dix is largely ahead for Governor, although Britton is equally far ahead of Crooke.

These seem to be tho only two names scratched or pasted. Sixth District Domocrotie ticket has the lead, with a heavy Republioan vote for Chittouden. Seventh District, No. 65 Lafayette avenue A Republican majority. Chittenden, however, polls more votes than any one olse.

Twelfth Ward. First District Democratic State and city ticket strong. A. E. Masters on the doclinc, having polled but twenty or thirty votes.

Britton in favor. Second District With the exception of some scratching against Britton, the State and city Democratic tickets were on the incline. No Republican State ticket had been polled up to twelve o'clock, noon. Third District At 279 Van Brunt street all the Democratic tickets were being voted through without opposition. Fourth District Tho Democratic ticket was decidedly ahead, the Republicans having polled but fifteen or twenty votes out of 209 cast.

There were not more than a dozen votes against Britton. Fifth District Tbe polls at 557 Court treet were crowded, and tbe Republican State, ticket was emphatically on the decline. Some scratching against Britton. Sixth District At 481 Smith street the Democratic State and County Tickets were strongly in ovor. Seventh Districts This district was all Democratic no opposition being made by tho other sido.

No fights occurred, although some growls were heard in the morning. All was quiet in this ward, and no shooting was indulged in, except in the First DiBtriot, when Bomo silk hats whoso unwary owners hod had the audacity to come with them to the polls, met that fate. Thirteenth Ward. About 3,000 registered, of which Tilden will probably receive 1,200, and Dix 1,700. Britton is being scratched by a member of the Dcmocratio General Committee, a lawyer, and bis supporters, and will run about 76 behind his ticket.

Powell ia being scratched by the Germans, and some of the Republicans scratch Shrooder. Besult Powell slightly behind his ticket, Chittenden and Cocheu wUI carry tbe ward. The former by a small and tho latter by a party majority. All quiet. Fourteenth Ward.

Dix will poll a party vote of about 800, and Tilden 2,760. Britton will leave the ward about 20 ahead of bis ticket, although some Demoorats are scratching for Crooke. Nolan, Democrat, for Coroner, will run. about 400 ahoad of his ticket. Short, Republican, for Assembly, about 200 ahead of bis ticket.

Bennett, Bepublican, for Congress, abont 200 ahead of hia ticket. All quiet except In the Sixth District, where is considerable wrangling over the Aldermen. For Alderman possibly Short and Reardon will run close. Police arrangementa are excellent. Fifteenth Ward.

So far as observation goes, there is a marked dimminntion In the Republican majority of years past. The total vote polled at noon flgaredta leas than 2,000, against a registry of little" more than 3,000. In some strong RepubUdm' districts It was apparent that tbe Democrats had made gains. The vote for Bliss disappointed his opponents, and, taking thiB ward as a criterion, Mr. Bennett will probably be defeated by a majority ranging from eix to eight hundred.

The Republican State ticket is said not to be materially reduced, while Britton and Powell are doing fully aa well as had been anticipated. Below is tbe vote by districta at noon First, 218 second, 265 third, 220 fourth, 236 fifth, 230 sixth, 280 Sevonth, 220. Harmer, for Charity Commissioner, leads his ticket. Sixteenth Ward. In rhiB stronghold of the Germans matters are very much mixed indeed, rendering it next to impossible to give an estimate at all accurate.

The Democrats are meeting expectations, as stated, on the gubernatorial vote, though as to the rest tbey axe somewhat non committal. Both Mr. Britton and Mr. Powell have done well considering all things, especially tho former, while the latter has suffered to some extent from the fact that bis opponent 1b from Fatherland. The Democrats have mode decided gain in threo districts, which is noticeable on the vote for Jacob Worth.

Kiffbtccnth Ward. Judging from the Second District of this ward gains in the same direction are noticed as elsewhere, to the joy of tho Democrats. Mr. Bliss has made aerious inroada on the anticipated majority of Mr. Bennett.

Mr. Britton loses little, if anything, as many Republicans voting for him as there are Democrats opposing. Nineteenth Ward. In the Nineteenth Ward a pretty full vote is being polled, the lower districts going heavily Bepublican, and in the upper diatricts the Democratic ticket ib ahead. Dix is being scratched by many Republicans, aud probably for the same reason tho party's candidate for District Attorney Is being pasted.

What votes Mr. Powell is losing from the Germans, Mr. Schroeder is losing from tho native elemont, bo that there is a close contest in the ward between the two. There are no disturbances of any character to record, and the voting appears to be legally going on in all cases. Up to noon, about one third of the voters registered bad been to the polls, and the canvassers were having an easy time of it.

The fact that there is no Alderman to be elected in this ward may account for the Indifference of the voters. In no instance oould the reporter ascertain that Winchester Britton had been scratched. Twentieth Ward. A clerk in the Controller's office was debarred from voting, he having made a bet on the el ec tlon. The man was wild, but not more so than Itr.Ostran der, who, as he passed through the avenue, learned that he was behind his ticket, Mr.

Burtis, accompanied by Mr. Berri, circulated arodnd the polls and waa surprised at the way the "old stronghold" was going, Mr. Britton ia doing welL The Demooratio Charities Commissioners are up with their ticket. Mr. Searing fa said to be ahead of his ticket.

"IU teU yon how this la," aaid Commissioner Pbraner. "Searing used to be one of the boys he nsed to be one of the boys in command over there, and the lads never forget one of their own. Beside, he was born in this ward, and la bound to run ahead." There wis no undue excitement. Twenty. first Ward.

The voting in the several districts of the Twenty first Ward was proceeding very quietly up to 2 o'clock, and the indications were, that the ballots deposited would be considerably below the number of votes registered, the fatting off being most apparent on the Bepublican side, Tilden Is receiving more than the party vote, many Republicans snatching Dix for Tilden and Crooke for Britton. The Democrat candidate for District Attorney is polling a very complimentary Bepublican vote, and it seems is to run ahead of hia ticket in this ward. For Controller the full rote is being polled for Samuel S. Powell. Mr.

Schroeder is polling no more than his party vote. At noon there had been 261 votes polled in the First District, 27 in the Fourth, and 702 in the Fifth District. Everything was orderly about tho polls, and the reporter failed to discover an intoxicated Individual In all his journeyings. Twentf socond Ward. The interest among the Bepublicsns in this ward seems to centre unon the Alderman, Wm.

T. The Passage of the East River Since the Earliest Records. A Curious Story of Ups and Downs What King of England had to Do with the Fulton FerryThe Old Time Municipal Contests of Brooklyn and New York. The story of the birth, rise and progress of the ferry system between New York and Brooklyn, is one which most have a peculiar interest to our citizens. The spasm ocUo 'an ddecldedly dangerous methods of the East Biveer navigation which began to be a necessity ovor two hundred years, have not developed into the quick, safe uul comfortable transit which the word "ferry'Vnow suggests without an infinity of trouble and bankruptcy and not either without constantly recurring contests ot authority between the authorities of Long Island and those over the water so much so as that even the Royalty of England waa at ono time appealed to, to settle these disputes.

And when the old system of things was done away with and the era of steam navigation began, even then these troubles were not all over, and since Fulton's time the management of the water roadways botween the two cltleB has not been a bagatelle, though happily oil trouble of this kind is probably over. THB FTBST FEBBY. Singular to say, the Fulton Ferry, which is oven now tho most popular water roadway between tho two cities ol New York and Brooklyn, waa tho first place in which a regular ferry was ever established on this Continent. This was merely a natural effect of a natural cause, in consequenoe of tho river being tbe narrowest at this point. The original New York landing was further up the river than tho present one, and almost directly fronting the now existing Fulton street, Brooklyn, where Peck Slip may bo said to exiBt.

At that early day the time occupied in crossing the river, as well as the difficulty of rowing across a strong current, were so great as to necessitate the location of the ferry at this point where the two shores came nearest together, although at a considerable distance above the then settled portion of New Arnsterdam. The first regular ferryman of whom wo have any record was Cornells Clroien, who, in 1842, kept a small Inn near the present Peck Slip, where he ownod a farm. He seams also to have owned a piece of land with the house and farm on Long Island, near the ferry. He afterward sold the ferry, with the consent of the director, to William Hamasen for 2,800 guilders. About this time the little city of New Amsterdam afforded the only market for the country people of Long Island to sell their produce, and the passage of persons across the ferry Increased at so rapid a rate that in 1662 Hie Burgomasters asked Governor Stuy vesant to grant them a forry franchise with which to, in part, defray the municipal expenses, The Governor, however, very decidedly refused, without giving any particular reason, and the matter dropped.

About two years after the continual squabbles and rows between tho ferrymen caused the first ordinance In regard to ferries to bo eusctod, It provided the fees which should be paid by ferrymen for a license, and the fines which should sccrae without oae. It also provided for the charges to be imposed. In 1665 Egbert Vsn Borsum leased tho ferry from Govornor Stuy vesant, whoso perquisite it was, at 800 guilders per annum, and built a ferry house on tho Long iEland shore. Ho continued to possess it until 1678, whan the Governor allowed hhn fifty guilders for public services as ferryman. During the continuance of tho Dutch Government, however, it would appear that, though regulated by legal enactment, the City of New Amsterdam never held tho ferry as a municipal right and possession.

Shortly after the city fell into the hands of the English, was retaken by the Dutch, and finally was exchanged by them for Domerara and Curacoa. During these stormy times the ferry passed through various hands, until, in 1674, it was leased by C. Dyro at 103 pounds English per annum. OOVEENOE THOMAS DONOAN, who arrived as Governor in 1683, granted a charter to the city, In whioh, after reciting many privileges, customs and immunities, no mention was made of the ferry, Bhortly after the Municipal Council, emboldened by its success, sent In an additional request asking for more rights and privileges. In this the ferry is fir6t mentioned, and a demand is made for "all the vacant lands in this Island to low water mark, and tho ferry between said city and Long Island, which shall horeaf ter be appointed." The Governor sent back an answer, expressing his surprise that having justgxanted such valuable privileges they should ask forahro, but oxpros sing his willingness to oblige thorn.

He then granted the ferry privilege, on condition that two boats be kept on each side of ths river for passengers, and one for cattle. Then came what is known as THE DONOAN OHABTEB, which giveB rights to the municipality of Now York regarding tho tenuro of land below high water mark ou Long Island shore, whioh they certainly had no right to possess, and which right has remained a contest almost over since. When theferry was held in this way by New York the Brooklyn people asserted their rights by forry ing themselves over the rivor, aud to that extent that John Airenson, who was lessee of tho regular ferry, failed, owing to the number of independent boats run. Kings County also asserted its rights by the Oourt of Sessions, promulgating an edict to tho effect that the ferryman should not bring or lot ovor any negro or slave upon tho Sabbath day, without a ticket from their master, which was in consequence of several rows which occurred. Tho fight between Brooklyn and New York over the possession of THE FEBRY BIGHT wont on many years after.

In 1709 one Cornelius Se bring, a wealthy farmer and mill owner, petitioned the Governor and Counoil for permission to establish A NEW FEBBY from some point between tho old ferry aud the Eed Hook to tho oentre of tho City of New York. Tho Common Council grew terribly alarmed at this and presented a remonstrance thereto in which after reciting the long time which they hod held the ferry and the great expense they had boon to in maintaining it, they state that it is the only considerable income left to the support of the public buildings, bridges, goals, landing places, etc And so they prayed most earnestly to be protected against the rmreaaonable and unjust petitions of the said Cornelius Sebriug. From this time the ferry passed through various persons hands who paid a sum of something over 200 a year for tho privilege. Troubles and squabbles aud even fights were going on between the ferrymen themselves and the corporation. In 1737 the ferry was sold at auction to Theophilus Elsworth tt five years, at 258 per annum.

The Brooklyn peoplo, who had always felt annoyed and ealouB of the TITLE OE NEW YOBK to their lands, endeavored to injure tho ferry by all means, and in 1730 the corporation of New York got a dear title, confirming their pretended right to the land to high water mark on the Brooklyn side. George II. of England refused continuation to this charter, but in 1732 the Coloinsl Assembly confirmed it. Again the Brooklyn people made an effort to get this repealed, and in 1745 6 got it done In the House, but by soma means It was stilled In the Council'. In 1737 the lease was given to William Cornell, for five years at 310 per annum.

In 1760 there was a further riBe in the price of the lease, and it was given at VX. In 1753 at 650 per annum. In 1763 it brought 300, and in 1706 it went down again to 650. In 1774, the Corporation of New York City established three ferries, one from Coenties Slip to tho foot of the present Joraleman, tho second from Pock slip to Fulton Ferry, and the third from Fly Market to the same locality in Brooklyn. From this time until 1614, the ferries went on Increasing in value.

During this early period there are no special Incidents to record. Every few years now leases came upon the ground, and at each new one the ferrie3 brought a higher and tho increase in value never wavered below tho sum previously given. They indeed became the most valuable property which could be hold. The year 1814, however, Inaugurated a new era in river traveling. Until that time, the passage of the East River had always been attendod with some dfQoulty.

Tho boats which were used wore in the unpleasant habit of often upsetting, and It was no rare occurrence for the passengers to be drowned. On three or four occasions, indeed, the boats, full of passengers, had been carried out to sea by tho ice and strong current, and all on board had perished. This was, at best, an unsatisfactory way of making the passage of. the East Biver, as many had to do twice a day, oven as at present All kinds of inventions had been in use to prevent accidents, but no boats they could build were able to withstand tho fury of storms on tho rapidly flowing East Biver. ROBERT FULTON'S STEAM FEBBY.

It was in January, 1814, that Messrs. Robert Fulton an! Claremont signed a lease for tho running of ja steam forry between Bookman Slip aud tho old ferry house iu Brooklyn. This lease was for twenty five years, at on annual rate of $4,000 for the first oighteen years, and for the last seven years, $4,500. This was some seven years after Fulton's first steamboat experiment. The new steamer, called the Nassau, was put on the route May 10, 1814, and proved an entire success.

Tho following interesting paragraph on the matter fs an extract from the Long Island Star of May 11, 1814 "THE HEW STEAMBOAT HAS3ATJ. "On Sunday last, the 10th, commenced running tho new and beautiful steamboat, Nassau, as a new ferry boat between New York and Brooklyn. This noble boat surpasses the expectations of tho public in the rapidity of her movements. Her trips vary from five to twelve minutes, aooording to tide and weather. The inhabitants of Long Island partionlarly will find this a most interesting improvement at tho ferries, as heretofore, however well conducted, travel has been inconvonient, and to many a subject of dread.

Carriages and wagons, however crowded, pasa on and off tho boat with the same faculty as passing a bridge. There ia a spacious room below the deck whore passengers may be secure from the weather. This splendid evidenoeof the progress of science and art, while it affords to all an agreeable communication with the city, is a euro harbinger of the future weal and prosperity of Long Island." The peculiar satisfaction shown in this article, and testifled by the peoplo generally, was not a little alloyed from the fact that tho fare went up from two cents to four, at which there was much Indignation in Brooklyn. Mr. Robert Fulton was as much vllllflod for his avidity for gain as he waa praised for his inventive genius.

After much talk and excitement the owners managed to show their annual expenses were such that they oould not keep the Nassau going at any reduced rate. Ahorse power boat was still used across the river for tho transportation or cattle, and It was offered to those who could not pay four oenta to travel by this conveyanoe at two. The same singular fact remains, however, that between the year 1814 and 1874 the price of ferriage across tho Bast Elver has remained the game, probably the most notable instance on record of a one price system. In the meantime THE OTHEB FEBBtES were run, as usual, on the old system of horsepower boats, and with an occnsional upsot. These two ferries did not pay very wott, and the Fulton monopolized about all the traulo.

Even at late as 1821 an event Is rooorded which caused no little trouble to people who crossed the river at the most southerly forry, known as thB Bed Hook. In tho oourse of nature the good old torwdjed. whioh had been in the habit of elvine mo WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4. THE ELECTION. Notes from the Various Wards of the City.

Prospect of a large Democratic Majority Britton and Powell Banning: Better Than wan Anticipated Republicans Yoting for Chittenden. The Returns. To night the Eaole will display the election returns, aa they are received, on illuminated bnlletinB at ibe Eaole offloo and at tho City Hall. In addition to this the Eaqlb will issue an extra about eleven o'clock, containing the result in the State and oounty so far as ascertained. The Vote.

From all appearances, at the present time of writing, this election will be one of tie quietest ever held in the city. The vast majority of voters made up their minds some time ago how to vote, and although to some extent this has been a campaign of unusual vigor, the quarrels of the rival parties were silently settled long before they came to the ballot box. First Ward. The First Ward is divided into seven election districts, ranging from the foot of Hicks street to Atlantic avonue. Throughout the morning each of these districts has been manned by ardent supporters of both parties, and a quiet though earn eet determination to work for the success of the various candidates has.

been apparent. Tho candidates of the ward axe for Assembly (First District) John Oonnell and Daniel Bradley the former having received the regular Democratic nomination, and a large portion of the Bepublican vote. In the First Ward, Oonnell is a long way ahead of his ticket Tho republicans have not nude any nomination in this difitrict, a3 the Democratic majority is oonoededly overwhelming. But though the Republicans have made no Assembly nomination, there leaders are working steadily for tbe local success of their general ticket. Second Ward.

Very little scratching is noticeable in the Second Ward, the straight Democratic ticket finding favor with the vast majority of the voters. Wilham Dwyor, the Dcmocratio candidate for Alderman, is running well, and so far Winchester Britton is said to be ahead of his ticket. There are only three election districts in this ward, one of them being In Clarrisoa street, and the other two in York street. At all of them symptoms of a vigorous but quiet election are apparent. Tbe Third Ward.

There are aix election districts iu the new Third Ward. The Republicans mado this ward for political purposes, but this trick failed of its object even on the first election held after the change was effected, the regular Democratic candidate for Alderman being elected last year by a good majority. This morning a quiet vote was being polled, and, as far aa conld bo ascertained, tho Democratic candidates on tho State and local tickets wero doing admirably. Samuel J. Tilden was making good headway among the Republican ranks.

Pastore wilu his name were in demand. E. T. Wood for Cougroas, against John a. Bchumaker, the regular Democratic candidate, was given the cold shoulder at many of the polling pi loos.

repudiated him altogether, and Republicans apparently took no interest in his prospects. Pasters with Winchester Britton's name were also in demand among Republicans. The only difference of opinion appeared to be on the Commissioners of Charities. Many voters, even among Democrats, were "cutting" this portion of the State ticket. It is safe to say that tho Democrats have Uttlo to fear from this ward, especially in the eases of Tilden, Winchester Britton and Powell.

Fourth Ward. The manner in which the election was conducted in the Fourth Ward during the forenooon was very commendable to both parties. Not a ripple of dis sention occurred, and ovory one seemed to go about the important business of tho day smilingly but earnestly. In the First District there were 126 votes polled at hall past nine. Of this number Tilden received a maturity oi 11; Powell and Britton keening pace with him.

In the District, at 9 AO A. there wero 160 vottH pollcl. Considerable scratching was done there, but lit ili'jn kept eide by side with Tilden and the regular ticket. The latter led the Republicans 17 votes. Iutbc luirit District 140 votes were polled at 9:16.

The Democratic ticket was slightly ahead, but the exact majority could not be ascertained. The regular Democratic ticket was voted throughout, with no scratching whatever. In the Fourth District 133 votes were polled at 0:50 A. M. Both tickets ran Bide by side in this district.

No scratching on cither side. In the Fifth District 124 votes wore polled at 9:50 A. M. The Republican ticket led slightly. WINCHESTER BBITTON kept even pace with his ticket in this district.

The indications aro that a full Democratic vote will bo pollod, and that there will bo a coneidorablo foiling off on the Republican side. Tho Democrats appear in oolid phalanx, and refuse to scratch tholr ticket, or liston to any offers of compromise whatever, on the part of the Republicans. The Fifth Ward. In this ward, according to the indications presented at noon, there will be a large Demooratio majority. The vote, taking the district as a whole, has not been very heavy, and any estimate of the votes cast would be unreliable.

As tho reporter visitod the different districts he found tho stato of affairs to be aa herein set forth First District, No. 246 Gold street, A largo Democratic vote; the straight ticket through, with Winches tor Britton, if anything, a little ahead. Second District, So. 57 Hudson avenue, "How's the tickets running 7" queried the reporter. "Straight aa a die Democratic utmost solid.

Sonio few Republicans; but in minority." Inanswcr to onolUor question: "Britton is even with the ticket havent seen his name scrotched Third DiBiricl, Ho. 187 Bridge stree: Democratic votes ahead, and ballots pouring in pretty lively. In some instances Britton's name was scratched, but very few. Fourth District, 122 Hudson avenue. Going largely Democratic, Britton running slightly ahead.

In some cases, Schroeder's name has been voted on the Democratic ticket by the German residents. Fifth District, No. 231 Nassau street. Mr. John Py burn towered above tho throng that gathered round the polls.

He said, "The Democratic ticket la away ahead here. I can't say that any one candidate ia ahead of it, but I've Boon some Republicans down here who have swapped off Dix for Tilden." The reporter looked hard at Mr. Pyburn at the last assertion, and he said: ''That's so; I'm telling you the truth, I've seen myself some Republicans who have voted for tho next Governor Tilden. Sixth District, No. 247 Bridge street Justice Walsh and Mr.

Robert Murray informed the reporter that things were quiet, but the ticket was Tanning well. Several Germans have scratched the Demooratio ticket, putting Schroeder's name on it that's about all. Britton runs well. A Republican said to tbe reporter: Britton isn't running so well; I know that he's been scratched, for I've given out about twenty pasters myself." The Democrats didn't believe this, but tho assertion was backed up by others. Seventh District, No.

51 Prince street The Democratic ticket ahead. The Sixth Ward. The Sixth Ward was doing its duty from the opening of tho polls in the nine districts which are comprised within its area. "Britton expects every man to do his duty," and the vole showed that Winchester Britton's friends and neighbors of both parties wore cheerfully responding to that expectation. Life long Republicans were making exceptions in his favor, more especially in his own district (the Seventh), where they voted almost to a man for him.

The registration in this ward amounted to about 4,500 votes of this number tho Republicans claim 1,100 and the German element about 400. The Democratic State ticket, then, will come out of tbe faithful Sixth with a large majority for State officers and Winchester Britton. The Commissioners of Charities will probably run behind the ticket. Tho Sixth will also give a majority to S. Powell, which will sadden his opponent.

Great interest was manifested in the result on Assembly and ward officers. In the lower portions of the ward the fight on Assembly and Alderman was exceedingly warm, and in many places gave rise to Intense bitterness. The candidates for Assembly, Ooffeo and Clare, were out at an early hour, hastening from district to district in light wagonB, to enoonrage their supporters. Prom a careful canvass it may be predicted that Coffee will be elected by a majority ranging from 600 to 900. The Republican candidate for Assembly, Mr, Masters, is helping Coffee by drawing off votes from Clare.

Tho Aldermanship is doubtful. It is difficult to say at present writing whether the regular Demooratio candidate, James Kane, or tho Democratic stump, Thomas Meigh an, will be elected It Is a mere probability, and nothing more, that Kane will manage to come out ahead by a small majority. E. Wood, the Independent candidate for Congress against John G. was driving around in a buggy in search of "National" ticket.

Seventh Ward. In this ward a full vote was being cast, with the exception of that for the candidate for Congress. In each of the nine districts Mr. Ostrander and Mr. Cochen were scratched and tho name of S.B.Chittenden substituted.

Before II o'clock over half the votes bad been cast. Of these Mr. Chittenden received fully one third of tho Republican vote, Mr. Britton ran well, receiving all his party's vote. Tbe Democratic Commissioners ot Charities were running a little behind.

Mr. Searing, the Democratic candidate for City Auditor, ran ahead of his ticket. The "fire laddies" were all with him. During a lull at the First District Mr. De la Hoyd, of Flushing avonue, preceded by a wandering band, march to the polls with fifteen voters who bore the Democratic poster at their bead.

Among the charactere who "made things lively" at the polls was a Mr. Cbesnuts, who asked for somo one to go bis bail, aa he intended to "bust some black Republican in der snoot." Eighth Ward. "All quiet along the line" is the word from the Eighth. A very full vote is being polled in all the districts, but quietly and effectively. The Democratic Uoket has full swing in this ward.

So far as could be Topics of General Interest Discussed by Eagle Readers. To the Editor qf the Brooklyn Eagle In your issue of Saturday last appeared a communication from Ye Andante Sexton" of Plymouth Church. In so far as he discusses the proper method ot admitting and setting pewholders and strangers to the church, I leave the matter to him. But when he takes tho occasion" to defend the vicious method of ventilation resorted to in said church, I beg leave to differ with him. I do this in behalf of the hundreds, probably thousands, who have suffered from colds, neuralgias, bronchitis and numberless other complaints, some uncomfortable merely, others serious, and stUl others perhaps eventually fatal, contracted by sitting in the draft caused by lowering windows and allowing the cold air to pour down upon their defenceless heads." It seems that the rule, under which the ushers work, has tho merit of simplicity, albeit that may be its only merit: "The greatest good to the greatest number." Under this rule, "tho greatest number" must be mado comfortable, even though the health, the lives evon, of the unf ortunato few have to be sacrificed.

The amount of suffering caused by the misguided efforts of well meaning ushers, ignorant of a few simple physiological principles, is my apology for noticing this matter at this time. The question ia simply this: From which will arise tho most Brjfforlng and permanent injury from tbe oppression, languor, headache, fainting of a few, perhaps, consequent upon want of ventilation as ordinarily experienced In churches and public halls, or, on the other hand, from those death dealing draughts of oold air improperly admitted, under the specious name of ventilation. If Mr. Weld will ask any of the distinguished doctors who attend Plymouth Church, he will be told that while there is somo disoomfort caused by wont ol fresh air, no serious damage is litolv to follow from being thus situated for an Sour or two. Even those who are asphyxiated, recover upon InluUing fresh air, and that is the end of it.

But sitting In a cold draught, the doctors will tell a matter ao serious, and liable to entail such grave consequences, that no intelligent person will subject himself to so great a risk if he can possibly avoid it. In short, thatdafectlve ventilation, or no ventilation for the hour and a half during the ordinary services, wiil, most assuredly, cause Icsnarm than wii be caused by teu minutes of loworing tho side windows, as now practiced. Let Mr. ask the distinguished Dr. now of the Health Board, an attendant at Plymouth Church, and? predict that "Ye anciente Sexton" will find that fortwonty years, he, (the sexton) has been ignorant of the elcmontary principles of "How to properly ventilate a orowded churoh.

A. wT AD8TO, m. d. Dr. Fulton and the tec Avenue Clmrcli lb the Editm of the Bi ooklyn Eagle: At last Rev.

J. Hyatt Smitb and Ms faithful followers have been divorced from tho Baptist Association, and to day the Lee avenue Church is an Independent society. It is no doubt a source of great gratification to that ecalesiastical body to have thu" cut a lrift a noble baud, which I believe truly onjoys God's benodictiou and love, but especially is it gratifying to the Bev. Dr. Fulton, who, since his advent to Brooklyn, has seemed to mako it his chief end and aim to Impair and destroy tho vitality of this much abused church and pastor.

The separation, however, is still to be proved to have been an injury through Justin D. D. stimu oatad by his uret apparent victory, will no doubt now rldoublc bis energies, fortify his position, equip and review his close communion brigade, and make a new assault ou tho defendant's works In the vicinity of Marcy avenue. The garrison thore, though small in numbers, may if attacked, give the General of the opposing forces all he can do to cross the lines, and follow up tho seeming advantago just gained by tho ballot, in tho expulsion of their sister church in the Eastern District. Tho pluoky stand the new Marcy avenue Church has taken in withdrawing their application, suowb their strength in standing alone, and whether in or out of tho Association, it will look to the strong arm of its God to sustain, as He baa dono in the past.

As regards both these churches, there is not a doubt that they will flourish, and become strongholds in them BelveB. In the Winter of 1872 the Lee avenue Church saw its dsrkest days. The1 church was built at a tlmo when monoy was hard to obtain, consequently it carried a heavy mortgage and a heavy heart. The faithful pastor stood at bis post Sunday after Sunday preaching the Word of God with great power, and many souls were converted. H1b salary was many months unpaid, and himself and family had hardly the comforts of life.

Only about ono aixth of the pews wero rented, the revenue was small and. slowly ooming iu yet thelr paator, never despairing, labored to oonvinco his followers that a new day would soon dawn upon them. Their Church aud its appointments were nevertheless bought in, and a gloom seemed to hover around. Fulton and his organ belched forth shot and shell against this seeming forlorn hope, bnt the resolute body aroused themselves as members of ono family, and aided only by the great head of the church, struggled alone. A year later we hear that the Church has cast aside its shackles; every pew is rented and camp stools also in numbers; 173 admitted by baptism alone, (the largest number of any Baptist Church on Long Island during tho year) whilo now members from other churches havo joinod by letter, and the Church is now riding on in the full tide of prosperity.

Now they can laugh at Justin V. Fulton and the BaptiBt Association, for what care they since by the grace of God they are set free. The Rev. J. Hyatt Smith, colled by has the right hand of fellowship and Bympathy of three fourths of the ministry of Brooklyn, and when such men as Beooher, Talmage, Duryea, Carroll, Scudder, Cuyler, Pentecost and a host of others bid him God speed in his bold stand, all the forces of Fulton cannot prevail against him.

As Brother Smith said in his speech before the Association on Tuesday, "If God be with us, who oan be against us." Surely God is with them and they grow in grace, doily receiving his smile and approbation. The Outlook will ploase copy. W. Adhxbeb of J. Hyatt Smith.

The East Side Lands. To Uie Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I noticed an article in Friday's Eaole from a Mr. Ayers, regarding the East Side Lands. Some of Mr. A.

's statements are rather incoherent, and others at variance with what, I have been told, ore facts in the case. Will you oblige an old resident of thta city by publishing the exact state of the affair. There is one fact of which I am cognizant, and that is That if the lands are sold by the city or eommissloners, some parties may be Induced to buy, thinking that a city title must be good, and so it may be to eomo extent; bnt let intending buyers understand that tbe city can only be hold for value paid, and that all subsequent buildings and improvements are at the risk of the buyors.

AgSjjMW a33 dinTh lta tho iflU annaied. fifth Ward, but np to the hour of going to press, nothing unusual transpired. Two thirds of the whole vote had been deposited by one o'clock, and through the ward is strongly Republioan, MoGroarty'a vote for Assembly was unexpectedly strong. This is attributed to someizur pa committed by John F. Stinson, the Republican candidate, recently, in collection with the primaries.

Daring the day, Captain Leicb, of the Twelfth Precinct, with one of his sergeants, viBited the various election places in his district, and gave words of Bepublican encouragement wherever he thought them necessary. About noon Justioe Semler called at the Station House, and notified Captain Leich that he was holding court, and requested that any prisoners then in charge should be sent before him. The Judge was informed that a general order had been issued by the Police CommisatouorB, forbidding the arraignment of any prisoners on election day, after a specified hour in the morning. The request of the Judge was not therefore granted. Captain McLaughlin, of the Ninth Precinct, however, sent up his prisoners and Judge Semler passed upon their cases.

Mr. T. J. W. Cornwell is running for Constable on tho Republican ticket and Mr.

Wm. O. Sohall is his opponent. Mr. Comwoll win undoubtedly be elected, but by a very small majority.

O'Strandor is running ahead of his ticket in tbe Twenty fifth Ward, and Powell, for Controller, is largely ahoad of his. General (Votes. The headquarters of each of the General Committees wero comparatively deserted to day. Several members of the Executive Committee of each organization were in attendance at intervals but beyond them no one appeared. Tho men wero all working at the polls, but to night they will assemble to ascertain the result of tho contest.

At the headquarters of the Demooratio General Committee, corner of Court and Remsen streets, arrangements have been made for tho reception of the returns from both the 8tate and County. Telegraph wires have been run into the building, connecting with the Fifth Avenue and St. Nicholas Hotels, tho respective headquarters of the Democratic and Republioan Btato Central Committees, so that the assemblage at the General Committee Rooms to night, will be informed of the nature of the returns from the State just as soon as they are received in New York. Transparencies have alBO been placed in tho front of this building, so that the figures may bo given to the crowd on tho street bolow. There will be on old time gathering at the Headquarters, and it will be the central point of interest to night.

At tho rooms of the Republican General Committee, corner of Fulton and Jay streets, Major Weeks, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, was In charge this morning. The plaoe was oold and dreary, and the few who dropped in there remained but a short time. Thore will be no telegraphio communication with the headquarters in New York, although the rooms will bo opou to night, as partial arrangements have been made lor tho reception of returns from this county. The place is rather out of the way and too small, the managers think, for any extensive demonstration and they have, thcrofore, determined only to furnish the local returns as far as they may bo able to do so. They will be ecu there from Headquarters.

Strong moved that the Board adjourn, and the motion was carried. HENRY MATHEWS. Henry JlathewB, who shot himself in the left breast at his residence, No. 181 Smith street, on the evening of the 20th of last month, died at the Long Island College Hospital yesterday. This Is tho person who left a note, giving as the cause of his attempt on his life that his wifo was unfaithful to him.

It was shown, however, that tho poor man was laboring under a temporary fit of insanity. He had received a sunstroke years ago in India, which affected bis mind, and made him irresponsible while excited by drink. He was in this condition when he wrote the note and shot himself, JUDGE MoCDE'S HOT. Yesterday the City Court, Judge Reynolds called a case in which the rival candidates for tho office of Dlstriot Attorney were opposed to each other as Counsel. "Winchester Britton!" "Philip 8.

Orooke!" were called, and in response a youth from the office of one of them said that the case was to go off. "That can't bo," said Judge McCue, who was seated beside Judge Reynolds it is set down for trial by th people to morrow' THE BROOKLYN SOCIETY FAIR.

A. Patterson, of Blnghamton, is a pulpit orator of great power, and as a revivalist has few equals. The remarkablo meetings held by him in California, in Syracuse, in St. Pauls and in various other places will not soon be forgotten by the denomination he represents. The meetings in Dr.

Fulton's Church are largely attended, and great spiritual results are anticipated. They are held every afternoon at three and every evening at half past seven. Last evening he preached on "A soul lost on the way to bo saved." Tonight he will take as his subject "A loat soul." Every morning at sunrise the religious reveille is beaten and the worshipers fall in for a sunrise prayer meeting. More than ono hundred, a full company, were present this morning.

B. Chittenden and Mr. It. D. Benedict Mr.

Benedict in a Corner. The election is over, but a few rights of truth still survive it. Among them is tho right of a gentleman to hear the facts, as to his relation to politics, correctly stated and protected from misrepresentation. Mr. S.

Chittenden has claimed and asserted that right against Mr. B. D. Benedict, a politician who seems to have an ability only to see things ss he may have dogmatically asserted them to be. If the facts are otherwise, so much tho worse for the facts.

Mr. Chittenden has not recognized Mr. Benedict's right or suc oess in reconstructing the truth as to his (Chittendon's) relations to the recent canvass, and he has retorted upon the political martinet of tbe Twentieth Ward with an address and aoouraoy which aro very pleasant to everybody except Mr. Benedict. Mr.

Benedict asserted that Mr. Chittenden sought tho nomination, given under the ordor of "leaders" to Mr. Ostrander, Mr. Chittenden has stated and shown that he did not seek it in any received or proper or actual 68use. The better portion of the delegates (in respect and character) proposed Mr.

Chittenden's name In the Convention. He asked, expected and Bought none of them to do so. They simply surprised him with a complimentary assault and battery, with Intent to nominate. Any elector of Kings County was liable to tho same thing. Mr.

Chittenden did no moro toward promoting, inspiring, procuring, or in any way affecting that result, than tho baby born this morning did toward securing the nomination of Abraham Lincoln fifteen years ago. Mr. Chittenden's clearness in the matter, and Mr. Benedict's perverse insistence upon his own views of things, are well set forth in the correspondence sent as a mere matter of correct statement of foots by Mr. Chittenden to the Eaole.

MB. CHITTENDEN TO THE EAOLE. Bsooelxh, November 3, 1874. To the Editor of Uie Brooklyn Eagle 1 realize that your readers will not care much for tho Inclosed correspondence, and offer it for publication subject to your convenience and pleasure. The difference botween Mr.

Benedict and mo appears to be this. He thinks it dishonorable for Republicans to resist unfit nominations. Tho behest of a Bepublican convention is the law of his conscience. It is not so with all Republicans, as this day promises to show. Yours respectfully, S.

B. Chittewden. MB. CHITTENDEN TO MB. BENEDICT.

New Yobk, November 2, 1874. II. D. Benedict, Sir To my great astonishment you havo again ventured to Bay to the public that I sought the Bepublican nomination for Congress in the Third District against Mr. Ostrander.

I again deny it, and I say to you explicitly that I never prompted a word nor mode a sign to Indicate that I desired it. It is (for tho present) for you to correct your repeated uus Btatemcnts or leave them to do their work. Yours truthfully, B. B. CraTTENDEx.

MB. BENEDICT TO MB. CHITTENDEN. Bbooklyn, November 2, 1874. S.

B. Chittenden, Esq. Sir Your note of to day is just received. You object to my saying that you "sought" tho Bepublican nomination. Your name was presented to the Bepublican Convention by your friends, whose acts in that regard you do not, I presume, intend to be understood aa disavowing.

It was quite aside from my purpose to suggest that you were an "offloo seeker," nor do I think iny language would fairly give any such idea. What I have insisted on is this, that having been a candidate, without objection without disclaimer on your part, for the nomination of the Bepublican Convenion, you could not with propriety accept the Democratic nomination. If you think my use of the word "sought" exposes you to any misconstruction, I have no objection to your publishing this uote with yours. Yours, tec, Robert T. Benedict.

It is now in order for Mr. Benedict "to step down and out." Not only did Mr. Chittenden neither seek nor solicit the Bepublican nomination, but he did the some as to the Democratic nomination, and in accepting of it, he accepted It as It was tendered to him, without pledges, and as a Bepublican, whose opinion upon some fundamental principles of politics, as the case is with many Bepublicans, accord with those of the Democrats. Whatever the result of the election, Mr. Chittenden's candidacy has been honorable to himself, honorable to all taking part in his support, and an admirable example of the better sort of politics.

WW ISLAND. The Improvement Commission has awarded the contract for sewering tho improvement district of Long Island City, to William and Matthew Baird of New York City, who are expected to begin work this week, The steamer Nellie TVhite, of the New York and Norwalk, Line, Btruck a rock in Hell Gate yesterday morning, and ran ashore at Bavenswood.

The water has proved unsuitable, and the mill and tanks wUI be abolished as soon as tho Flushing Water Works are completed, with the mains oi which the Eaflroad Company will make a connection.
