MAINE ELECTION.

The Boston Atlas, which has bestowed close
attention 10 the returns of the late election in
Maine, asserts that AZ Wings to As Locolocos
were elected to the House up to this week, leav-
ing SO vacancies-that 80 Wings to AZ Locos,
were chosen on the regular day of election, and
that Is Wings to Locos have been chosen at the
special elections since; and that of the districts
yet to come in seven gave majorities for Bronson
(Whig Governor) over all others; thirty more a
majority against Dana (Loco) and only twenty
two maorities for Dana over all besides. Ofthe
districts which have elected since the regular day,
not one that then gave Bronson a majority has
failed to elect Wing, while nine Wings have
been chosen from districts that gave majortes
against Bronson, and four from districts which
gave Dana clear majority over all. Hence the
Atlas very fairly concludes that the State will
have Wing Governor and Legislature through
the year 1847.-Ne,o York Tribune.
P. S. Since the above was put intype, we have
received the Tribune of the 9th inst, containing
the result of the second trial in six additional
towns, electing Wings and Locos. The re-.
suit, so far, then,is 81 Wings, AZ Locos.

Ohio Election.

STARK covNrY--ALMoST A VICToRY.---By the
"Ohio Repository of yesterday, we have recol-
we'd the rrurns from Stark county. We have
neither time nor room to go into details; and will
therefore sum up the result as briefly as possible.
Tod's majority over Bebb is 96: In 1914 Folks
majority over Clay was 623! being gain of 527
since the last Presidential election. Mr.. Lahm,
the Independent candidate for Congress has ma
iority of 80 votes over Mr. Strakweather, his Lo-
cofoco competitor, Mr.. Griswold, Wing, is de-
feaied for Senator by Mr.. Graham, by only l6
votes! Messrs. Kryder and Cook, Locos, are e.
lected Representatives, the former by votes, and
the latter by 81! What shall we say Of the nu-
merous Wings Wings, did we say, mol they
are not worthy of the name )---who remained at
home, and permitted their opponents to steal into
power when they could have carried their whole
ticket triumphantly. Iti toolate reason the case
with them, but they will permit us to say, that if,
by their supineness, the Locofocos are enabled to
secure the Legislature, repeal the Banking law,
and re-enact the other descrucIve measures, we
shall be compelled to regard them as the aiderS
of Locofoco destruction. Just think of it; the
Wings Of Stark could have polled 1000 more
votes, and they refused to do i'll Had the wings
of Carroll been actuated by the same spirit OF
"staJ aJ-at.home-ativeness," we should have TO an
nounce to our readers an ingrorious defeat; and,
possibly, aLocofoco victory throughout the State.
WAYNE coUNTY-.-A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH The
whole Independent ticket is elected in Wayne
county: the majority for Gen. Lahm is between
100 and 200 hundred votes. This secures his
election beyond controversy. Well done Wayne!
SUMMIT County, entire Wing ticket is
elected in Summit; Bebb's majority about 900.
HARRISON couNrY....An Extra from the office
Of the Cadiz Republican has just been received'
Bebb's majority is 976l and the entire whig tick
ct elected by nearly the same majority. So we

dug by this "villainous tax law"
JEFFERSON coUNrY...-A flying report from this
county, states that whig ticket succeeded by abou
I76 majority. P. S. This report is confirmed.

Wings Of Carroll, in this conflict with loco
focoism, you have borne yourselves nobly. You
have shown that, when aroused in defence of
your cherished principles, in defence Of the in
terests of our State and common country you
are invincible; all the powers of locofocoism,
whether native or acquired, bought or borrowed
are unable to prevail against you. You have
given death blow to the destructive principles,
of Tod, Fries, Deford g. Co. You have shown
that You are neither TO be driuen nor Seduced from
your principles. Every attempt of the desuuc-
tives, every attempt of their GLli's have been
made TO recoil upon themselves; giving US the
gratifying assurance that the real Wings Of Car
roll have remained steadast, true to their princi
pies. You have shown yourselves above the
reach, beyond the influence, of ambitious dem
agogues. You have shown that you are lead and
governed by principles, not by men nor factions.
We congratulate you most heartily. You
have me, the highest expectation ofevery friend
of whi9measures. But time and space will not
allow us to speak of Orange, BrO,cn, Lee, Rose,
and other townships that have exceed them
selves All have done we'll. We trust this glo-
rious triumph over FACTION and locotocolsm
combined, will never be forgotten; but in future
contests with these deStructireS, may the remem-
brance of this campagninspre you with new zeal'
and nerve your arm for greater dceds-ior ano-
ther and more glorious victory.

SICKNESS ON TIE RIO GRANDE.

We cannot vouch for the various accounts of
sickness on the Rio Grande, which reach US by
every mail, and mostly find their way into our
columns. The following, however, comes from
sucha respectable source, thatwe believe it should
be received with entire confidence:
EDract of letter from Col. Samuel R. Curtis,
Commanding the Sd Regiment Ohio Volunteers
dated
Matamoras, Sept. 7, 1896.
"Gen. Taylor marched from Camargo en- route
for Monterey on Saturday the 9Th inst. He
takes with him about 5000 regulars and 1000 vol
unteers. The remainder Of the forces are dis
trbuted from Camargo to the mouth Of the river,
all contending with fearful odds against fevers
and diarrhea that still rage throughout the army.
In my regiment there are $50 on tho sick list!
The same proportion at Camp Washington, when
you were there, would have made the list eight
or nine hundred; as there was then under my
command, all the volunteers from the States, and
five or six times the force | now command.
NY surgeon reports that, though the number con-
tnues large, there is evideptly a change for the
better, and almost every man is on the mend. .
sit is considered a very hard battle, and a
bloody one, that carries often per cent. ofa CIV
en- force. Very few battles of the many thous-
ands tho world has fought, have rose five Per
cent. But by disease and death | have seen my
ranks already reduced from 79o TO $50. And in

THE ELECTION IN CARROLL COUNTY.

THE ELECTION IN CARROLL COUNTY.
The contest is Pasl-'he baule has cnded-a
victory has been achieved and the Wings Of Car
roll have again covered themselves with glory.
The campaign was brief but brilliant. Our
friends were vigilant and whig vigilence always
socuras, Wing victory.
In view Of the great principles involved in the
contest, in view Of the means used to defeat
those principles-means which the sterling wings
Of Carroll will ever remember-we feel that the
triumph Of the Wing Ticket is cause Of rejOic-
ing.
The whig party stood up to the real issues.
They adhered Throughout, to their principles, and
nothing but their principles, no subIeriuge was
used-no attempt made TO escape them. Wing
measures were advocated in all their length and
breadth, whilst Locofocoism was opposed in all
its destructive forms. Our success may there
fore be looked upon as the triumph Of principles
over the destructive measures Of Loeofocojsm.
The vote was not sogreatas thatpolled lastyear.
The rain prevented many from auendinglhepolls.
But for this we would without doubt have carried
the whig ticke, with greatly increased majority
-Bebb, it will be seen, has majority Of ninety
five votes; Brown seventy three; Beatty seventy
one; Wilkn forty sir; Clark fifty three and
Baxter eighty. This is glory enough for one
year.
