lain has majority over all others of 11O6 The
Republican Senators are elected by good
majority. We have lost four Representatives
in strong Republican districts, from causes for
which our own party friends are responsible;
and have gained one in district which is
generally against u.s. The result is gratifying,
and indicates strong and vigorous party.

From the Boston Advertiser.l

Considering the lack of interest in national
topics at this time, the inevitable quiet that
accompanies the year following the Presiden-
tial election, and the very unusual want OF
subjects for controversy, the Republicans Of
Maine have done we'll, and their example may
be initiated with profit by their brethren in
other States. The inducements to work have
not been great, and it is only feeling of fidel-
have drawn out so good proportion of the
voters. The significance of the result is smaller
than usual but it may at least show that there
has been no reaction against the party which
shapes the policy of the nation and is respon-
sibe for the good government of most of the
States.

What the Papers Say of the Election.
From the Bangor Whig1

We can once more congratulate the people
of Maine upon their steadfastness to the prin-
ciples which have guided us safely through
SO many years OF trouble and so many
reforms in the system of free government
We can most emphatically rejoice in the en-
during strength of the Republican party
which has stood firmly, squarely up to the
contest, and conquered its foes in the name OF
the same great principles that have actuated il
throughout. 1t has undoubtedly demonstrated
by the election of yesterday, that its power is
not dependent upon any temporary issues or
personal preferences, but that it lives in the
hearts of the people, and is powerful because
its principles are as pure and as strong as the
foundations of the Republic.
[From the Bath Times.l
The sanguine boasts of the Hichborn men
have come to naught. Their vote is returned
in such scattering manner that it is almost
impossible to make a correct statement OF
what it will be. They hardly muster a re-
spectacle minority. So far as heard from they
have not elected single candidate.
The causes that have contributed to this
reduction of the Republican vote are
well known. There are no national
issues at stake; they were purely local.
The HichboIn men did their best to defeat
Gov. Chamberlain, and aided in many locali-
ties as they were by the Democrats, who were
in hopes to throw the election into the Legis-
lature, by division in the party, there were
serious grounds for apprehension that Gov.
Chamberlain's majority would not be as large
as IL has prOyed

Lands, and large cotton plantations
and we are much pleased to hear ou,

prospects for crop the present year
We made particular inquiry as to the
extent of corn planted, and from the
reports believe that good crop will
result in abundance of corn"
The Knoxville (Tenn.) Press ana
Herald says that there will be at leas,
Will be at least one third more corn
planted this season, in East Tennessee
than there has been since tho war,
A letter to the Macon Journal am,

says: "The impression that our peo
