The Bowdoinham iron -clads, members Of The
Reform Club in that place, made an excursion to
this city yesterday, in the steamer Clarion They
lad a charming day. and a most delightful sail up
the Kennebec, the scenery on either bank of
which most wonderfully retains its spring-hke,
verdant appearance. The cxcursionists visited
the several points of interest in the city, and re-
turned home in the afternoon, highly pleased with
the manner in which they had spent the day.
This effective temperance organization were ac-
conpanied by the Bowdoinham Brass Band of Is
pieces. The band appeared in a neat and very
tasty uniform, and made fine appearance upon
the streets; their fine music, performed at several
places in the city, elict.d praise. We are indebt-
ed to the band for the honor OF complimentary
serenade. The ladies and gentlemen connected
with the journal office and their near neighbois,
gave three cheers for the band and three also for
Hayes and Wheeler, 10 which the band responded
on their instruments.

I he election passed off in this city in order
our organization as a city. The republicans
gained li9 over last year, and made net gain of
So on the Governor vote. The Gsmocratic vote
was Ga in excess Of last year Both parties
worked with earnestness and zeal, and succeeded
in bringing out almost their entire strength of
their several organizations. Returns from vali
Gus parts of the state were received at City Hail.
during the evening TO the unbounded satisfaction
of the republicans present The general result
exceeded the expectations of the most sanguine
as ten thousand seemed to be the maximum ma
jority anticipated. The voice of Maine thus EN-.
phatically sounded forth to the nation, will have
a salutary effect upon States heretofore consld-
cred somewhat doubtful and cause them to
wheel into line with Maine and Vermont, ensur-
ing an overwhelming republican victory in No
vember.
Rev. A. II. Morrill,, formerly of this city, who
for the past ten years or more has been laboring
among the Freedmen in Western Virginia. has
been spending vacation of several months in
this State and visited his friends in this locality
the present week. He gives favorable account
of the progress of the work in which he is en-
gagged, and entertains hopeful views of the future
of the south, wherever republican principles be-
come permanently and peacefully established.
Our esteemed and enterprsing fellow-citizen,
j. Il. Bodwell, Esq, member elect to the legisa
turc from TINS city, led MS TICKET IN several WARDS
and might deservedly have received the unani-
nous support of the voters of both parties.
Quite number of our citizens started on a pill
griInage to the Centennial exhibition, in Phila-
delphia, this week, and we trust their visit may
prove one of unaoyed pleasure and satisfaction.
No wonder that the addition of a twelve pound
prospective voter to the family of one Of our dem
ocratic citizens on the morning of election day
should reconcile the happy father in . great
measure to the defeat of his favorite candidates
in both city and State. The bright little fellow
the twelve FOUNDER we mean-is worth more
than all the rag babies ever thought of during
the present generation. lie will probably be a
model republican voter in the course of twenty
one years.
The new Vaughan school house is not yet com
pleted, and the school in that district is tempors
lily held in City Hall. All our city schools com
me need on Tuesday, without change of teachers
in either department.
Notwithstanding repeated and persistent warn
ings, several of our citizens found election day
that their names were not on the ward lists,
consequently their votes were refused 1t would
be advisable to have these little matters attended
TO before the November election.

Election Notes.
The returns come in better and better. The
"back towns" back up the cities in their MAORI
ties.
Kennebec sends a solid republican delegation to
the legislature. Rev. NJ w. Newbert is elected
representative from the China and Albion district
by III majority; Asher II. Leaned Of Benton is
chosen by majority of 1873; and Nathan w.
Taylor Of Sidney by majority of elerea.
Now that the election is over the democrats
are quite free in expressing their utter disgust OF
Pillsbury's management of the affairs of the cam
paign, and it is strongly hine that for the sake
of public decency and the good Of the party, he
will be deposed from the cbsirmanshp of the
democratic State committee at the next State con-
vention.
Albion gives Conner 81 majority, republican
rain of 81.
That little trick of coun;erfeitiug the republic
can ballot gave Mr.. Fields of Brunswick about GO
votes, says the Press. 1t was contemplate fraud.
Fields was however, defeated.

a bold and daring robbery va, committed in
Mt. Vernon last week. Mr.. William Carr of tina,
town, had large and fat COW, which he was in
tending to sell for beef. Wednesday night the
COW was taken from his yard and has not been
since. In the morning. Mr.. Carr, finding that the
COW had been stolen, started in pursuit, and sue
ceeded in tracking her in the direction of Angus
ia as far as the railroad crossing in this town.
From that place no traces of her have beer found.
We understand that two men were seen in the
neighborhood the day before the robbery, but no
other clue of the robbers has been found. Mr..
Carr would be most happy to find both the COW
and the scamps that took her.

Our attention has been called to an item which
appeared in the last number of the STANDARD, re-
ferring to an incident which occurred during one
Of the meetings Of the Monmouth reform club.
The inference drawn from the article is that the
President of the club refused TO let q gentleman
speak because be a democrat. Now this is
about as near the truth the Standard usually
gets The facts arc these, gathered from several
persons who we've there. During the meeting,
the President Mr.. n, called upon Mr.. +. TO
speak, Now Mr.. L. is not only one of the select
men and one Of the lea ling men Of the town, but
he is also one or the leading democrats, and
member Of the club which facts prove the Stand
ard in error. Bat Mr.. E. declined to speak, and
called upon gentleman from Louisiana, who
was present, for remarks. Now there is an anti
Gle in the constitution of the club, prohibiting any
one but actual members from speaking, and con-
sequcntly the President objected, not however on
account of his being democrat. But the best Of
it was the stranger was invited to sign the pledge
aud the constitution, which he did, and then gave
them a speech. And this is not all. Along with
him went another prominent democrat of the
town, (who by the way is the physician there
and he signed. The club felt very highly pleased
with their evenings work-the conversion OF two
democrats over to the side of temperance.
