POLITICAL NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS.

To-day the State election occurs in Maine, and
there scarcely any excitement in the State itself
on the subject. No doubt the republicans will
sweep the state by an increased majority although
upon reduced vote.

For washburn, 317 for Butler. 26S. The actual
assembling or the Convention on the 10th may
show different figuring.
The Lynchburg Republican says its radical friends
seem to be little bothered in raising money with
which to prosecute the campaign in Virginia.
The Boston Traveller (Buter), September g.
anrms that 'if the gains for General Butler at the
caucuses yet to be heard from In proportion to
his gains up to the present time, he will have at least
fifty majority in the State Convention. The dele.
gates classed as doubtful in the organs OF the
third term candidates are Butler men," There
is a shocking degree Of discrepancy between the
Butler and ant-Butler press regarding the CON-
plexion OF the approaching Convention.
