REJo1cINes HERE,

Our Office was ,hronged on Monday
nigh, with an eager multitude, anxious 10
hear the election news from the surrounding
towns. The triumphant vote for Mr.. Wood,
in the two town, was regarded. and Justly,
as an indication Of what had been done
elsewhere, ana the public expectation was
excited TO the highest pitch. Our counting
room was densely packed, and il is not a
small room, and the sidewalks before The
door was lined with people. We had ar,
ranged TO receive the returns from all parts
OF the County, aud as messenger after mes

OH YoRK. This town has generally
been goOd'for some $50 or 800 locofoco ma.
ioriiy. 1t was the ouly town in which the
regulars held meeting during the canvass.
On Thursday previous 10 the election, the
masses OF the place consisting Of 81, twenty
two Of whom were either wings or Morrill,
Democrats we're addressed by Mr.. Apple
ton of Portland, and Mr.. Leland Of Saco,
both Of whom abused Morrill, s,ouily and
appealed to the Democracy 10 come 10 the
rescue, Among other things which Mr..
Leland told the Democracy was statement
that the Sheriff Of the County had pledged
the town OF York 10 send wing TO the
legislature. Even this foolish lie and his
abuse Of the Sheriff, the vote shows did
no, produce an astounding effect. Wells
got only % plurality in the town over Mr..
Wood Some Of the other strong holds Of
the Democracy in The County contributed
equally as we'll 10 swell the glorious vote.

Representative Election in saco.

The candidate Of the exclusive caucus
held in Saco, 10 nominate Town Repre-
sentative, obtained the entire vote Of the
regular Nebraska Democracy, with the ex.
cep,ion Of four votes. The fusion " be-
tween The exclusives aud The wildcats,
which had been arranged in The expectation
Of success in killing Morrill, in any
event." was complete, but unlike other
" fusions," amounted TO nothing. II turned
on, precisely as we were confident il would,
and like poor Tray, the very respectable
gentleman who suffered himselfio be dipped
by false friends, and 10 be cozened into
receiving support from men who have had
hitherto no sympathy with his views, was
sadly "beaen," for being caught in bad
company. The s!ea, majority Of The wings
in Saco voted for Mr.. Seaman, no., how
ever, from any personal dislike 10 The other
candidate, but because they were not dis
posed tow ir,ls such lusions as had been
arranged in connection with loco!oco law.
yers, 10 subserve The purposes Of wildcat
democracy. Had the nominee of The ex'
clusives been called in The usual form, and
il had been understood that he was ready ia
do all he could TO defeat Paris, leaving the
matter whether Reed or Morrill, should
be Governor, 10 be arranged honorably
when the Legislature assembled, no eXcep
lions would have been i,ken 10 his nomina.
ton, and although he might not have been
elected, the great body Of wings would have
supported him chee:iully. Acquainted, as
we were, with the tone Of public sentiment
in our place, we were satisfied That no man
could be elected to the Legislature, opposed
to- Paris unless he could receive the united
votes Of all opposed 10 the regular democ.
.acy. We counselled a concillia,ory course,
and the nomination Of some man whose
previous corrse on questions which aeialed
the public mind, would be satisfactory TO
all who were expected 10 act together. Had
The caucus been called in The usual form,
such man would have been nominated
and elected.
We are not, however, inclined 10 notice
at much further length this matter. The
result Of The election We rejoice at, not be.
cause we have auehl 10 say against The
gentleman selected by the exclusives, but
because very foolish enterprise OF the
slraighlouls was most sig"ally rebuked by
The people who have no affinity for locoioco
leaders, or love for their operations. The re-
suit OF the matter has convinced some hon
est wings who were warped iulo the scheme
OF the ieebleness Of the men who assumed

susceptibility 10 be gulled by men who
understand the science of "wool pulling"

For ourselves we DO not believe that Mr..
Morrill, will make a bad Governor. His
sentiments in relation 10 Nebraska, and all
other matters pertaining TO The moral and
pecuniary welfare Of the State are such as
will commend themselves 10 the majority
Of the people OF The State, and such as are
believed 10 be correct by large majority
OF the wings in the State, who have voted
for him directly for Governor. He is an
honest, energetic man, and the honorable
stand which was taken by himself and
friends last winter in the election OF our
talented United States Senator was credit.
able to him. Many Of The wings who voted
COR Mr.. Morrill, Eel, impelled 10 do so from
considerations Of justice growing out Of The
honorable course OF Mr.. Morrill, and his
friends, in supporting and aiding in the
election of the Hon. W. p. Fessen6en 10
the Senate OF the United States.
We knew tina, these circumstances, and
his friendship for The Maine Law, would
contribute very much to swell his vote, and
while he stood with Mr.. Reed in opposition
10 Mr.. Paris, though friendly 10 Mr.. Reed,
we could see neither the wisdom or the
justice OF quarrelling with those wings who
felt ii their duty, under the circumstances,
10 vote directly for him. The feeling in
his favor was more wide spread and gene.
