The Mailo Election.


On last Monday, Maine went Republican by
majority variously estimated from 1900 to
$4,000 This is no surprise. The Eastern
States will probably all give their votes for
the Republican Ticket in the Presidential
election except Connecticut.
In comparison with previous votes, this
shows but little change. in the relative strength
of the two parties III Maine In 1860, the
majority for Lincoln over all the other candi-
dates combined, including Bell, was 27,7O4
over the Democratic candidate, his majority
was 29,75o. In 1864, Lincoln's majority over
Mcclellan was 81, ,122.
The voice Of the Democracy will soon be
uttered in the great Central States; and will
be tho true voice of the American people.

The Earthquake In South America.
Secretary.

| The details Of the great disaster in South
America are truly appalling. Eight large
/ cities tie among tho most important on the South
Pacific coast, have ceased to exist. Many more
cities are reported to have been more or less
affected. and the effects of the shock were cx-
perienceed at many points northward from Ari-
Co to Callao, distance of about $50 miles,
aud southwark to Cobija, a distance of about
2S0 miles. We can get some idea of the ex-
tent of the devastation caused, by imagining
the whole coast of the Atlantic, from New
York to Charleston, to be FIRST laid in ruins by
the uphcayal of the ground, and then inunda.
ted by an ocean wave from thirty to seventy
feet high and next by supposing this calamity
to be followed at an interval of three days by
another shock, which should PROSTATE one half
of tho buildings in Georgia and the Carolinas.
1t is computed that 300, 900 persons arc home
loss and wandering throughout Peru, destitute
OF shelter and food. The number of lives lost
is calculated as extending from sc, 900 to co.,
600.

ing:
can incident occurred at the meeting of the
National Convention which was IN omen
That grand hall where the Convention met
was full of patriotic men. Upon its walls
were placed the shields of thirty -sevon States,
and around every shield was the American
flag. Upon the platform stood two bronze
statucttcs Of noble soldiers, one leaning upon
q great bronze sword. The Convention had been
in session for several days; ballot after ballot
had boon taken. First one was up and then
another, and at last gallant eneral, whose
name has never been mentioned anywhere
save with respect mean General Hancock.
No man knew whether on the next ballot he
was or was not to bo chosen. Everything was
uncertain, when suddenly the great bronzed
sword I'm the hund of that noble statue snrss...

by mortal hands-no human agency broke it.
Some mysterious, invisible, and irresistible
power snapped it ut the hilt, and the word
went forth that the country was hcnceforth to
have statesman and not a soldier for a leader -

OF abraham Lincoln and the highest respect

tract from one of his letters. Under date of
November 81, 1863, Mr. Lincoln wrote as fol-
lows:
DEAR Sir: DR.. Kennedy, bearer of this,
has some apprehension that Federal officers,
not citizens of Louisiana, may be set up as
candidates for Congress in that State. In my
view there could be no possible object to such
election. We do not particularly need men,
bers Of Congress from those States to enable
us to get along with Legislation here. What
wo do want is conclusive evidence that res
pcctable citizens of Louisiana are willing to be
members Of Congress, and to swear support to
the Constitution; and that other respectable
citizens there, are willing TO vote for them.
TO send parcel of Northern men here as
Representatives. elected, as they would be
understood, (and, perhaps, really so,) at the
point Of the abayopct, would be disgraceful
and outrageous; and were member Of
Congress- then, / would vote against admit
