tie has just been fought and won IN the very

from the Boston Atlas we learn that joseph
c. NOyes, ESQ.,, the wing candidate for con-
gresS, for Washington aud Hancock co n
ties IN Maine, has been elected by z major
ity Of 400! The fact is established beyond
possibility Of doubt--SO said a letter re-
ceived fIOm MachaiS. Two other letters
from Bangor, written on the same day, the
18th, confirm the glOrioas news. The first
states that the returns render iC morally
certain that Noyes is elected to congress- =
thirty-Seven towns giving him a clear ma
joritY Of over eight hundred votes, and a
nett gain of more than twelve hundred since
tn last trial. The second letter ofthe same
date, written at midnight ,runs:--The eastern
stage has just arrived, bringing returns of
the election in Hancock and Washington,
from fifty two towns, giving Moves, wing, q
majority Of 548 votes over all other candid
ates, and he is undoubtedly cleo ted to con-
greSs by more than 500 majority.
