tn e STATE ELECTION
Chumbe rlniuSs yIniorifv 4H0O
MAIN e.

AUGUSTA, Sept. 16.-The returns from 331
cities and towns give total vote of $685.
Chamberlain has 41,6T; Smith 80 7O8; HIGH
born 1919; Chamberlain's majority over both
1854. Hichborn's vote will not exceed 1900
and Chamberlain's majority will be 1900. The
falling off on the total vote of last year will be
1900. The Constitutional amendment allow
ing towns to divide into wards is passed, al
though the vote is very small. The Senate
will stand q Republicans, Democrats and 1
doubtful George E. Minot of Kennebec has
only 4S majority, with one town to hear from.
The disaffection is owing to the railroad ques-
ton, the friends of the broad gauge having gen.
orally opposed him. The House will probably
stand 126 Republicans to 20 Democrats. The
Hichborn party have not elected a single mem
Der of either branch of the Legislature
POLITICAL EXCITEMENT IN BATH
BATH, Sept 16.-Considerable excitement
exists in political circles here, owing to the
at work, Sheriff Millay having removed from
office his most efficient deputy, A. j. Potter of
this city. Mr.. POtter's offence is that he sup
ported the temperance nominee at the recent
election. The course of Sheriff Millay Is Sc
verely criticised by large majority OF the Re-
publicans of the county.
THE STATE SABBATH SCHOOL CONVENTION.
LEWISTON, Sept. 16.-The State Sabbath
School Convention closed its session at noon
to-day. The Convention has been one of great
interest and profit. A State Association has
been formed and the counties will be thorough
Iy organized for Sabbath school work.

WIDE AwAKE.-The Bangor Wing, finding
local matters about as dull as they are in Port
land, has turned its attention to assisting its
brethren of the Portland press in getting out
first class sensation items. The other morning
it startled its readers with a terrible railroad
accident at the Kennebec depot, by which a
man was torn all to pieces, and his intestines
strewed the track for twas it miles?) great
distance. Yesterdays Whig tells story of
how two well known young men Of that city
came to Portland 10 attend the fair, and step
ped intol a saloon to obtain drink of
soda (?) or other beverage not tabooed by the
authorities, when they were arrested by five
policemen, under command of a detective, and
marched off as pickpockets and if it had not
been that one of them was acquainted with
Senator Hamlin, whom he met on the street,
they would have Jared hard. The Wing also
states that one of them, just after President
Lincoln's assassination, was taken for Wilkes
Booth The paper further states that the Port
land papers, the next morning, announced
that the police had arrested two Boston roughs
and committed them to the watch house. A
very nice little story, Mr.. Wing, but not quite
exact in all the particulars. There was no de-
tective employed in the matter. The two gen.
tlemen, one of whom, it seems, travels on his
beauty, were enjoying themselves in very
suspicious place, at a time when there was
great fair held in the city, calling roughs of
every description to town, and were so hand
some and gentlemanly in appearance thai po-
licemen, who rarely arrest men on suspicion
unless they are pretty rough looking custom
ers, invited them to the station house. As one
protested he could find somebody who would
vouch for him, he was allowed to bring in his
voucher, Senator Hamlin, who knew one but
not the other. They were treated in the
most gentlemanly manner by the officers, and
acknowledged it themselves, and were detain-
ed but short time. The two Boston roughs,
locked up over night in the station, were two
entirely different men. We hardly think it
shows well for Bangor young mems personal
appearance to be told that even policemen
mistake them for professional thieves, and,
what is more than all, to state that one of them
resembled Wilkes Booth. Try again, friend
Wing; they say the third time is always sure.

Republican Victory.

ST.. LOUIS, Sept. 16.-An Omaha dispatch
says the election on Tuesday in Colorado pass
cd off without any disorder, though there was
much excitement. The returns indicate the
election of three Republicans and one Demo-
crat to the Legislature and Republican Sher-
iff, Clerk, Assessor and Commissioner. The
Democrats elected Probate Judge and Treas
urer, who ran on the peoples ticket Puebla
and Los Animos counties gave increased Re-
publican maiorities, and Clear Creek county,
as far as heard from, gives Republican ma
ioritY.

Yankee Lass" owned at Peaks island has not
been heard from since the storm, and it is
thought she is lost vito all on board.
Schooner Yankee Girl, Clifton Atwood of

storm, and she is probably lost. She is report
ed to have taken about sixty barrels OF mack
erel on the morning before the storm A top
mast dory, and part Of house have been taken
into this city and have been recognized as be-
longing to the Yankee Girl. There were

JUSTICE. -There is one feature of the law
that always hath been, and we presume always
will be, but nevertheless seems hardly in &C.
cordance with the spirit of justice 1t is this.
A man is arrested on the presumption of hav-
ing committed certain crime. He is brought
before the Municipal Court. and decision is
given by the judge to the effect that there is
probable cause Of his having committed the Of
fence, and the prisoner is bound over to the
next term of the Superior Court, which may
be three months hence. He is not able to find
bail and lies in Jail until the Court sits. He is
indicted for the offense and the evidence is not
strong enough to convict; perhaps the govern
ments evidence indeed is very weak. The man
is discharged. Not guilty is the verdict. Now
should not that man receive some compensa-
ton, not only for the disgrace, but also for the
suffering he has undergone and the time he
has lost? We do not mean such cases as when
it is evident that the man escape !, punishment
by some mere legal bubble, but where the evil
dence is at best but crcumstantial, and ex-
tremely weak. Magistrates should therefore
be extremely careful in the binding over of
prisoners where the evidence is not very strong,
since they may entail upon them lasting dis
grace and much pecunary loss.

THE TIMES ON THE SPANISH sITI


THE TIMES ON THE SPANISH SITUATION.
LONDON, Sept 49, The Times has an edito-
rial article to-day on Mr.. Sickles note to the
Spanish government on the Cuban question,
wherein it says: "It was generally believed
that President Grant would not interfere or
allow interference in the Cuban question until
Congress could vote upon it. Is he less reso-
Lutte than formerly, or has the pressure forced
him to sanction the demands upon Spain for
the abandonment of the island, or American
recog milton OF the insurgents? The probabiIi-
ties are that We are on the eve Of serious
events.
The struggle will be hopeless so far as Spain
is concerned, but the government connot resist
the impulses of the people.
The flame of Spanish plide is fast kindling,
and the government in trying to check it will
soon be extin yuished. From the most tran
auil provinces of Spain come offers of men and
arms in order that regular troops may go to
Cuba.
The aggressive policy of the United States
cannot be justified by the attitude OF Spain
toward Cuba 1t is not aquestion OF slavery,
for the abolition of slavery has already been
decided upon. 1t is not the determination OF
Spain to resist the demands of the Cu6ans, Tor
negotiations havej been opened to allow the
severance of the Island. Setting aside the
question within its means to set Cuba free are
Iair to Spain, it is doubtful if o war Of races
might not ensue, if the instruction is not ex-
ungulshed before the cession of the Island

Mr.. EDITOR: Among the good things We
could boast of, at our late Fair. was the exist
ence of City Directory worthy of all COM
incubation. Intelligent strangers remarked
upon the value to our city of Mr., Beckett's
Directory, which, for accuracy, fullness of de-
tails as to our institutions and public enter
prises, left nothing to desire.
Having found the value of good Directory
In seeking information as to other cities, l
cannot fOrbear to express my qualification that
in this respect Portland is well supplied.
