The Election in Maryland.

The election for Governor and State officers yes
terday passed OF quietly and peaceably, though
there was quite a number OF arrests made on the
charge Of disloyalty, which prevented full vote

ortv Of the legal voters Of the city devoted to
the preservation Of the Union. The intimidation

sustained by the authorities Of the city, effectively
desire for retaliation, which was, to considerable
extent, practced In all the wards.

and character, and in most Of the precincts oppo-
sition judges were In attendance. In all other
respects the election was fair one, the greatest
care being taken everywhere to prevent Illegal
voting The whole vote cast was 81 ,096, Of which
the Union candidates received an average vote Of
II ,Ts2 The whole vote of the city at the Presi-
dental election In November last was 20 ,063. In

election was "a 99i twill therefore be seen that
the Union candidates yesterday received an I'M
doubted majority of the legal votes Of the city,
which is estimated now not to exceed N 600.
