Daily Frees, of the 10th, instuut, mji : Thu Kmlicals who, following the cue of the CouritrJosrmd, were eu exultant over the gains General Harlan had made in the late election, rnuat feel aome- what craatfalien aa the returns diadoee the trna atate of the eaae. a e a » e a The truth is, that aubtract the negro rote and repeating from Harlan'a atrength and Lealie’a majority would be larger than that given either Seymour or Ste- venaon; showing that the gallant Gener al hue gained simply the vote of the new ly enfranchised negro, and loet heavily amongst the whites, who formerly acted with the Republican party. The tables of retnrus from the election found in the same paper, an nearly com plete, They show the following aggre gates thos fur in the vote for Governor: Leslie (Dem.) 116,261 Harlan (Bail.) 79,685 From tbs Kear York Glebs, ism task LIVE AND LET LIVE.

Loalie'a majority 35,576 In the same counties last year, in the olection for Congress, the vote stood aa follows: Democratic 89,360 Rudioal : 07,146 Democratic majority laat year in the same counties 32,214 The full Democratic majority last year was. 30,691 The majority this year, aa for aa returns have been received, is. .85,576 And the Democratic gain, so far is 4,885 —notwithstanding the negro vote fur the Radical ticket this year, which was not an element in the canvass lost lear. The Paris Kentuckian says it is a most satisfying exhibit, and adds: The State was thoroughly and earnestly canvassed and with more than average ability on the part of the Radicals. Lo cal questions were persistently lugged into the canvass by Rudicaljorutors in the hope of diverting the attention of the people from the vital issues which differ ence the two parties. In short, leading Radical speakers were remarkably shrewd, artful and plausible. Yet see bow signal ly they failed to daikon oounscl, with their cheap fluency. The Democratic majority cannot fail abort of 35,000 and may exceed 40,000. Largely more than one-half the Radical vote is made up of negroes. Kentucky has done her whole dntv. Especially proud are wo of Bourbon’i noble walk. And now we would know where the Radical gain is, which the organs of that .party arc boasting of so loudly. ELECTION IN ST. LOUIS. Important Democratic Gains. The Uermtaaa Come Over tv the Democratic Party. The ciootion which took place in Si. Louis on Tuesday of last week has de monstrated the significant fact that the Germans of that city who laat fail united with the Democrats in ekoting Gratz Brown Governor over the administration candidate, have taken a final departure from the Radical party. The Democrat ic candidate fur Presiding Judge of the County Court Was elected over the Re publican nominee by 1,800 majority.— Every effort was made by the Radicals to recover the support of the liberal Ger mans of the city, bnt without avail. The correspondent of the Cincinnati Oatetie thinks the German vote of Missouri irre- ooably loot to the Republican party, and voonxiders this a certainty in the event of the re-nomination of Grant. Oevrgta Praia ou The New De parture. Tux 1 ‘Dxi’abtuiusti' 1 Embraced. - Tha Marietta Journal of the 18th, says: Wo copy from the Atlanta Era an article asserting yt—* unity of principle of the “Departure Democrats" and the Repub licans. It looks as if tbore is no insupe rable obstacle in the way of combination. Nothing but a name and political associ ations. Again: Texas Dekoouaoy.—The party in Tex as adhere in their platform to the Con- stitotiou aa formed by our Fathers and assert, ss living any vital issues, every thing, the New Departure pronounces “dead."

Incredible as it seems, there must be more than 10,000 families iu this city who keep up nn establishment iu fashionable style, and spend at least ♦10,000 a year. Ten thousand fami lies—a hundred millions a year! The ligureswill seem impossible, hut here isluculent proof. The number on Fifth Avenue exoeeds 700; those on Madison Avenue exceed 570.— There are between. Fourteenth und Fifty-ninth streets alone forty-five side streets that will fairly average 150 houses between Sixth avenue and Fourth avenue, the boundaries of fashion. These alone would give 7,000, and with Fifth and Madison avenues over eight thousand. And now we have to iucludo Lexington avenue, Park avenue, the Btreets be yond Fifty-ninth street, and the other fashionable localities scattered over the city—and the number of four- story brown stone front houses will easily reach 1,300, which would leave our calculation fur too low. Some of the men who keep us these establish ments are poor. There is many A FOOB FELLOW OK A SALARY of perhaps 15,000 a year—for a man of 85,000 a year is jwor in New York —who lives iu a nice brown stone front house on a fashionable side street He has to keep, at the very least, four servants: a cook, a scullery maid, who helps her und may do at the same time the laundry work, an upstairs girl, and—if he has children (poor people mostly do have children) —a nurse. He pays $3,000 rent for the house, and, after he has paid his servants, lias nothing left to live on. Nevertheless, it costs him $10,000 to live. How can he do it ? lie docs do it, no matter if he can or no.— Pooplo live recklessly in New York, and in the vain struggle of emulation they go fur beyond thair means.— They starve themselves, as some Ital ian nobles do, to keep up grand state before the world. Your readers will scarce believe it, that here in many a family the food is scanty because of the carriage being elegant; that many a lady ou Fifth avenue has nothing to wear at home because she gives par ties iu which she likes to he gorgeous ly dressed. There is nothing of the morbid extravagance of New York in your staid city. People in St. Louis do not, as a class, make fools of them selves because they see others fool away a great deal of money. Here they do, us a class. FASHIONABLE HOTELS. There are ten hotels here, kept ou the Eurojieau plan, in eafili of which sonic 100 persous board. These fam ilies pay for a suite of rooms, consis ting of parlor and bedroom, from $15 to $30 a day. This price is paid, no matter whether the guests stay a week or two years, In the Grand Hotel there are a few suites which are high er—$300 a week. But the average is not so high. You can get two good sized rooms in most of the Europeun hotels for $200 a week, or $10,000 a year. Iu regard to your meals, you pay for what you cut. You pay for peas 50c.; for a cup of coffee, 50c. An examination of the restaurant bills in one of the hotels gave the following result; Average for breakfast (one person), $3; for dinner, $10 or $11; for supper, about 85 or $6. A whole fam ily can live souiewhut cheaper, for of some of the diBhcs—as for instance beef-—an order for one will bring enough for two. But on the whole, the result is pretty much the same.— A family or three persons will, living economically, spend easily betweon $30 and $40 a day on their meals, which would amount in the year to more than $10,000. $10,000 FOR TWO MEALS AND $10,000 FOR TWO ROOMS, makes $20,000. Most of the fami lies boarding in these hotels koep car riages; they give little dinner parties —evening entertainments they are excused from in consideration of tliese good dinners; they spend the summer iu Europe or at watering- places; their girls have the' most fashionable dressmakers and best musters. It costs them $40,000 or $50,000 to eke out their exisleuoe.— They might have a grand brown stone front house for $10,000 a year, hut then they would lie afllicted by a dozen servants. You ask one of the boarders of the hotel, “Why don’t yon keep house?” and you will find that in most cases a woman is at the lait- tom of this extravagance. Either she is in “delicate health,” or she cannot get along with the “lielji.” And so they leave their home, and its privacy ami iudcpcdenco, to get intotwo upart- lueiits, and to pity for them a price with which they could rent a palace. But the society of the hotel rocom- pensates them. There are HASD80MB YOUNO LORDS and dashing young bocks of the Union League club coining there all the time, who arc sure to ad mi re them when they come down to dinner iu gntud state, and who will keep them company if they should gut lonely in the ubsencc of tlier husbands. It ia delightful life to one that likes to do nothing. A woman iu “delicate health” will find here rest and deliv- eruucc from all household trouble.— There are plenty of good rocking chairs iu which tney cun recuperate by the delightful motion. The only burden of theirs is dress. They sub mit to the tronhlo for the sake of evading others,und gladly dress three times a day for the company of ad miring young gentlemen aud curious young ladies waiting for their appear ance In the restaurant pie who would not like the liest of American hotels for being too cheap and too democratic, or Europeans who prefer to live in their accus tomed Btyle, go to the European ho tels. There they can SPEND EASILY FIFTY DOLLARS A DAY. We have been apt in learning the urt of luxurious living from Euro peans, und in these European hotels no one sits down to a dinner without his wine. Great many have a friend to dinner, and then it is the easiest thiug iu the world to spend $25 at a dinner. Gruud Dukes aud Princes, stopping at the Buckingham Palace Hotel, may pay as much; hut it is for a week or two. Here people pay the extravagant price for years; they make it an every-day ■ matter. In deed, New York is the only place where such a thing is known.— Neither London nor Paris has such boarding hotels, although the first named Democratic city vies with the splendor of our hotel uristocracy in its very “swelly” clubs. In the sum mer the boarders all go away. They go to Europe, to Newport, or Sara toga, or their country seats. Of late it has become more and more the fashion to go to Europe in preference to a watering place. In New York it has become u regular item of the household, $5,0(10 for a three months' trip to Europe. There are many families here who havo not missed a single summer for eight or ten years, if we except last year. AMERICAN COUNTRY SEATS IN EU ROFE. Traveling abroad becomes cheaper the more American families learn the ways of Europe, and some of our wealthy men earnestly think of buy ing a pretty place on the Rhine or on the lakes of North Italy, whither tWy could go every summer. The plan is feasible, and will be tried soon by several gentlemen who have found it convenient to provido new places of residence for their families while in Europe. It would have obvious ad vantages with regard to the noble sport of Count hunting, which our ladies of Fifth avenue delight in. A huly whose husband died recently just left her home on Fifth avenue to go ABROAD IN SEARCH OF A DUKE. She will go to Italy where the com modity is to be had in great plenty, and thinks of buying a pretty villa, and living there until she achieves her object. How her friends here will envy her, how they will chafe at Mad ame la Duchessc. It lias been no ticeable how large a number of New York ladies go to spend considerable time in Europe without the protec tion of males. Married ladies take their grown-up daughters, and leave their luisbuuug behind to earn the money they are going to spend, just as they go to Saratoga without their husbands. Americans trust their wives everywhere; aud let them wil lingly stay at a hotel, go to Saratoga, or dash off to Europe, as they please. They all contribute to the glittering show of Vanity Fair, in which New York has now only two rivals—Paris and London. Wc owe it to them that it now oosts TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO LIVE “RESPECTABLY,” that is to say on Fifth avenue. In this sum wc do not inolmle the rent of the house, which would certainly swell the amount to $30,UU0. How this enormous sum—ou the interest of which many a family of refined tastes could subsist—is expended, is easily demonstrated. A first-class establishment on Fifth avenue has lcveu or twelve servants; u man cook, with three female assistants, scullerv-muid, etc.; a man waits on the table; a laundress; a coachman und a footman—the latter muy help waiting on the table, us his duties on the box are not very arduous—a sta ble man; two or three- girls for the upstair work, and, if there are chil dren in the family, a nurse. The OUTLAY IN CARRIAGES AND HORSES alone amounts to $10,000 a year. The threo or four carriages which these families keep, one for morning, one fur evening, one for the after noon, one for the drive, the purk. etc., want renewing very uftcu ill New York, where the different styles suc ceed each other as rapidly as fashions do, anil where carriages are not kept bo long in the family as in Europe. There my lady's coach that wus I hi light ten years ago is good enough still now; hero Mr. Snooks wants one at least every year. Then comes the cliuugc iu horses. Every one wants to liuvc a faster spun of horses, and fancy prices arc {Mtid for horses, which arc enormous expense. If anything, $5,000 will be below the average spent ou the change in horses, and the same amount for stable expenses; renewing of carriages, buying new ones, etc., is quite reasonable. With regard to the other expenses, they depend on indi vidual tustes ami habits; hut they all have the best mnstorfe for their oliil- dnsn; at least half a dozen hig par ties in winter ; the most fashionable dressmakers for the young ladies; their country seat or their three mouths’ trip to Europe; they have to feed twelve rervuuts, and where will the $15,000 he when they come to the end of the year ? THE UPPER FIVE OF THE UPPER TEN of such families—families that sja-nd between $26,000 to $30,000 a year— there are about a thousand in New York. It would lie impossible to as certain the exact figures, hut tlic above figures is a result of considern bio research, aud tit he reluxl on as very near approximating the fact.— Easier is it to give a close figure as to the families spending between $50,000 aud $00,000 a year. There are alsiut sixty or seventy such families. Our figures would stand thus; 10,000 or 13,000 families that spend $10,000 a year; 1,000 that spenu between $20,- 000 and $30,000 a year, and 60 or 70 whom it costs $60,000 a year to live. Th«se are tho figures that expiaiu those gorgeous dresses you see at par ties ; those princely apartments with park; that gay and spleudid life which has made New York the Far is of America—a city of luxury aud friv olity.
