THE KENTUCKY ELECTION.
The Lion Koareth.
The Lexington (Ky.) 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 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:

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.

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.

beef steak,throwing its savory exhalations
in your free from your neighbor's kitch
en?
Did you ever try to persuade yourself
into the belief that you were at peuce
with all the world, your debtors included,
even though you did have to suffer from
the cravings of your appetite, and shut
your eyes—your fleshly eyes—to the
meunness of your garb while passing tho
shop where “ ready made clothiwo for
sale at cost," met your eye ? And
when you had consoled yourself with
your powers of self-denial, were you told
that there was a dun at tho door ?
And when that miserable, scape-goat
of an answer—mo money—was given him,
did you see the little pale faced wood-
hauler, turn nwav with a look of angry
suspicion depicted on his countenance,
that qtiiokly put to flight all your self-
oomplacencicH, and finin'l you full to
suupping at 4 /uk*,” liko a sleepy dog at

Added to this ; after having existed
honestly through tho week—stinted your
family fully, and paid your wood haulers
in despite of tempting odors, and while
seeking a little solace iu the perusal of
your weekly paper, did you have your
pleasures interrupted by the r*l truss on
your paper's margin, notifying you that
your Hubscrption was just out, aud you
hadn't a spare cent to renew it ?
