HSs" Capt. James H. Gilis, U. s. N, and
family have been visiting here with their
relatives for few weeks past.
Capt. Gillis was in co nmsnd of the U.
S. Steamer Wateree, which was wrecked a
few months since in the earthquake upon
the Pacific coast. The vessel had been
condemned as unseaworthy, and could not
have been brought around Cape Horn.
The Captain endeavored to bring her to
New York overland, but only succeeded in
getting her about SIX hundred yards on
her land journey. This is the only thing
which we ever knew the gallant Captain to
undertake but what he succeeded in. Af-
ter the earthquake he devoted his energies
TO relieving the sufrerings of the people
who had been wounded, and left hoaseless
and homeless by the terrible catastrophe.
During the late war Captain Gills render
el most efficient service in the cause of the
country. At the bombsrdment of Mobile
his ship was sunk by Rebel torpedo, but
he fought her when nothing but her turrct
remained above water, He Was then e.
moved with his crew and placed in COM
mand of a shore battery, when he got am
pie pay for the loss of his ship. He was
sent home as bearer of dispatches from his
Admiral, and was honored by being the
only officer mentioned by name in the dis
patches. He is an upright, honest and
brave Christian gentleman and officer, the
country has reason to be proud of him,
and we are glad that Ridgway is the birth
place of such agallant hero. Long may he
be spared to do service for his country.

The RESULT IN MAINE. special
despatch to the New York World,
dated Bangor. September Is, says:
''The Republicans of this city, in
Guiding the Hon. Hannibal Hamlin,
are greatly discouraged of the result
in their State. They had confidently
counted on $4,000 majority for
Chamberlain. Returns received to-
day indicate that it will not exceed
5000, which is a Democratic gain
of nearly 13, 900 from 1866, the last
test vote in the State. The Demo
Gratis throughout the State are jubi-
liant, it being conceded before the
election that anything less than
20. 600 Republican majority would be
a Democratic triumph. For ten days
before election the radicals freely bet
on from 10000 to $4,000 majority.
Large sums of money. have changed
hands to-day, the radicals paying up
their bets. In, tho cities and few
large towns, where the radicals hold
absolute control OF the polls, they
made large gains over last year; but
the country townsagenerally show
large Democratic gains. The radicals
have spent half O million of dollars in
this election"

argues that, because the Southern

But the same paper claims that pei

the Georgia negroes, in excluding
them from Office, although they, too,
are voters. The privilege ofcvoting
is sufficient for the whites, but ne
