AUGUSTA, MKs Sept. l4-The Kenebec
Journal of this morning contains official
returns from 264 towns, comprising more
than three+ fOurths of the vote of the State!
Cony has in these towns 40, 775, and Howard
22,135. Last year, in the same towns, the
vote stood as follows Cony 457l3, and
Howard 33,046. Cony's majority thus far
Is 1880, against 14,667 in 1864. 1t will
probably exceed 10000 when all the returns
are in. The total vote of the State will fall
short of $1,000. ynnftB Irk[1fD 2

1t is the most efficient invention for the

S@- Taxes upon everything we eat, drink,
taste or SMELL

nA- -Swarms OF ax-gatherers, more nu-
merous than the lice of Egypt, pry-
ing into every mans business, and
eating out the substance of the peo-
plel
aea- Provost tlMarshals, dressed in a little
brief authority, turning their inexo-
rable wheel of death, while the poor
wife and terror-stricken children

enue of pimps, spies, informers and
perjurers!
nga- Elections carried at the point of the
bayonetl
nsa. Ballot boxes over-thrownl
nA. Shoulder straps in the Judges bench
sea- Arbitrary arrests!

goes, but there is another improvement
