The Galveston Ne,cs, speaking for
Texas says :'Let us hope that though
1876 may not mean peace in an un-
qualified and conclusive sense, it
means sincere and concerted effort
in both sections to put an end to re-
elimination upon the past, to sup
plant mutual jealousy with mutual
confidence, and to merge the ex.
ploits Of both contestants in the
great sectional conflict in one grand
communion Of national glory and
and national greatness.

An IMPORTANT SIDE-IssUE There
is an important side-issue in the
coming election in Maine. The Leg
islature is to elect a United States
Senator, and Senator Morrill, is anx-
ious to retain the position. Speaker
Blain also wants the seat, and it is
said to be no secret that he will do
his best to obtain it. He is said to
have been successful so far in secur-
ing the nomination Of General Selden
Connor ,or Governor.

ONE VoTE.-One vote elected the
late Jesse D. Bright to the United
States Senate from Indiana, a posi-
ton which he filed with so much
distinction for eighteen years. There
was q protracted contest in the Dem

between Mr.. Bright and General
James H. Lane, afterward Of Kansas
Radical notoriety. The vote which
gave Mr.. Bright the nomination was
cast by DR.. e. d. Cruikshank, Of
Hamilton county, Ohio, then mem
Der Of the Indiana House from the
county Of Franklin. He had previ-
ously voted for Lane, but changed
to Bright when several Of the latter's

The contest in Portland last Mon.
day, over municipal officers, was far
from being spirited, as there were
GOO less votes polled than in the last
general election. Doubtless this is
mainly caused by the disgust Of
many Democrats in not having q
ticket of their own to support, as
well as by the discomfort Of many
Republicans in having to support for
Mayor man who only few months
ago waa a prcminen. Democrat and
only went into the Radical ranks for
the spoils and bribes Of Holladay.
The result Of the election foots up as
follows:
Republicans elected. A. Chap
man, Mayor; E. J. W. Stemme,
Councilman in Third Ward.
Independents elected-Jos. Bach
man, Treasurer; Andrew Hill, As

missioner; j. R. Wiley, Councilman
in First Ward; S. G.. Skidmore,

Ten or twelve years ago it would
have created a great stir had Cassius
M. Clay announced himself as afili-
ating with the Democratic party; and
even now it is remarked as some
thing extraordinary that this distin-
guished gentleman participated in
the recent State Democratic Conven-
ton Of Kentucky, from the fact that
for many years he was the recognized
leader Of the Abolition movement in
the South. But there is little to
marvel at this. The ideas that Mr..
Clay SO courageously and eloquently
championed in the days that drew a
line Of fire between the North and
South, were realized in the Emanci-
patton Proclamation. Thencefor.

only affiliate with the party which

then, as a patriot of truly national
views, could he 80 consistently cast
his lot, as with the Democratic party?
