Maine Election.

The election in Maine, on the 9Th
inst, resulted in one of the most de-
cided political revolutions known in
the history Of the country. For the
last half-dozen years or more, the peo-
pie of that state have failed to give
any gpbernatorial candidate msjor.
ity of their votes, and the duty of elect
ing a Chief Magistrate has dcvolved
upon the Legislature. Last year, the
Republican candidate for Governor,
Mr.. Morrill,, lacked 1900, and the Dem
ocratic candidate, Mr.. Wells, 10000
of majority, when the latter was chos-
en- by a coalition of Democrats and
Wings in the Legislature.
This year as will be seen by the fig
ures given below, Hannibal Hamlin,
who, on the day of the Republican
National Convention in June last, an
nounccd in his seat in the U. S. Senate
his secession from the Democratic
party, has been elected Governor, by
a majority which will, from present
appearances, exceed fifteen thousand.
The same party have probably elected
the entire delegation to Congress-, six
in number, two-thirds if not the entire
Senate, and large majority Of the
House Of Representatives,.
1877 towns give Hamlin { Repub.
39,s25 Wells (Dem.) 24,l5l Patten
(Whig) 4,O47. As yet there is no
news of single Democratic Senator
being elected. The House will be large
ly Republican. Mcssrs. Wood and
Gilman are elected to Congress by
large majorities and it seems probable
that the other districts have gone the
same way. The majority for Mr..
Washburn (Republican) in the Ban
gor District will be very large.
