tended. VIM. Raymond Lee was President.
The amount of Cranes illegal issue is 1O,-
900 shares, and the Directors refer the subject
to the stockholders without any recommend
alton. In regard to the surrender of the
property by the Trustees, they think it can
not be judiciously done at the present time.
twenty-five thousand tons of IRON are now

working the road.
The trustees will not pay second mortgage
interest on stock dividends, until legal de-
clson is given authorizing them to do so;
and they will withhold all interest, if neces-
sary, to maintain the road in serviceable con-
dition.
The directors reported the earnings of the
road for the year to be $780, 60. Ex-
penses, $6O5,326 As, of which $S3, l6l is set
down as extraordinary expenditures.
The total liabilities are So, ,293 assets
$3.50, 322 IA; liabilities over assets $3,457,-
97l OF. The funded debt is 1888, 700 !;
floating debt 1867, 298 bonded debt 3d.

Maine Election.

Returns have been received from l04 towns
giving Morrill,, Republican, 2l,O74; Reed,
Wing, 50l7; Paris, Democrat, 1852; and
Carey, Wild Cat, SSl. There is no reason to
doubt that Morrill, has been elected by the
people over all the other oligarchist factions
From returns received from 81 towns in the
First, Me-, Congressional district, Wood, Re-
publican, has 1855; Wells, Dem, SAL I;
Scattering, lO3. Plurality for Wood, 3Ol4.
This is the district which the arch doughface
Moses Mcdonald, misrepresented, and for
which he was elected in 1852 by a plurality
of 1882 votes. The Democratic net loss on
the present vote is 6S96 in vote of $4,000.
All the ether Congressional districts have
elected Republicans.
Forty-seven Republican Representatives,
to the state legislature, have been chosen, to
six Democrats. The other returns, not vet
come in, will doubtless be of similar char
acter. Hurrah for Maine. May we be able
to show the same gratifying result III Massa-
chusetts at the ides of November.
