In Maine a Republican majority Of less
than 5000 has been increased to nearly
5000. In Vermont the old asceudancy
has been fully maintained. La Colorado
a Democratic majority of 200O has been
overcome. and a Republican Governor and
both branches OF the Legislature elected

three Presidential electors. In Ohio Re-
publican majority Of $500 has been incr,as-
ed To tetw cen 5000 and 10000. and five
Republican Congressman have been gain

1000 has been reduced to 5000, with a
gain OF four Republican Congressman and
the Legislature upon jpint ballot.
These hilhly gratifying results have
been obtained IN the face Of frauds at the

money by the opposition. They show the

TOR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS

Ia ONE MORE RALLY. AND
REPUBLICAN VIC TOR Y IS
CERTAIN.

In little more than ten DAYS, the
voters of Maine will be called upon to
east their ballots for election OF Presi-
dcnt and Vice President OF the United
States.
1t is to be hoped that in this impor
tamt crisis, no Republican will neglect
his duty and the party should by no
means allow the splendid majority OF
September 10 be reduced. Our OPP
ponents here and every where through
the State are hard at work, followin.
up the "still hunt and representing to
the ignorant that the success OF the
Democratic party is sure. They well
know and some of them even acknow-
ledge that the canvass for their late
candidate for Goyernor was misera-
bic failure and tina: no enthusiasm was
awakened in his behalf. In November,
taev hope with their game of brag,
their cry of Tilden and Reform, their
alleged astounding victories in the West
where they lost in every State, to in
duce many to vote their ticket and
thereby educe the Republican majority
in Maine. More than all, they hope by
the over confidence oil Republicans
aud their consequent neglect 10 make
large gains. While we have little fear
OF the election OF TiIdcn and Hendricks, +,
it would be disgrace to the Republi-
cans of Maine through apathy or indif-
ference to allow the Democratic parry
alter the Presidential election ray of
hope in The future in this State. Let
them see once Tor all after Nov. til
that they have spent their labor and
strength and money for nought. To
do This, let each Republican work and
act for lew DAYS more and then the
quiet Of the grave will forever settle
over the party ol Disunion and Treason.

The Arctic whaling fleet met with
terrible disaster. Twelve ot the vessels
were crushed in the ice and several lives
were lost. Great suffering was experienced
by the survivors. The loss on New Bed
ford vessels will amount to about half a
million dollars.
"A few days since, as an excursion
train OF eighteen heavily loaded ears on
the Vermont division of the Portland and

After the SkIrmish.

The smoke On the skirlnish line has
rolled away. At every point Of the line
our forces have gained decided adyan-
tages. In Ohio we have routed the enc
INV and hold every vital position over
boxing the November field. In Indi-
ana our defeat has been equal 10 a victo-
~.
Despiie the desperation OF the enemy
We have advanced almost to the inner
works. Every outpost of importance
las been taken. Holman, the demo-
cratic captain, has been captured and the
entire fine of democracy has been SO
badly shattered that when we bring up
lhe biz guns in November the field must
be ours
On the whole, our victory is most
cheering ana substantial. Ii is not
sweeping in its character, but even bet
Ter; for while it inspirits republicans ii
also teaches them the necessity of Wig
Urous policy in those States ranked
among the doubtful
Forward. must be the watchword un-
Ill sunset of November 9TH. The peo-
pie are with Us and their expectations
must not be disappointed. The army
OF freedom and progress has been sue
cessful on the skirmish line. Vermont,
Maine, Colorado, Ohio and Indiana all
have indicated growth of public senli-
nent strong and deep ia our favor.
The Novefnber struggle will Le des-
pcratc one. Democracy will die hard.
Every possible means, fair or foul with
in its control will be brought TO bear TO
overthrow the republican party and the
lovai intelligen ce which supports it.
The issue is too plain Tor any one to
be deceived 1t is fight between the
forces of loyalty and intelligence OH one
hand and disloyalty and ignorance on
the other. A solid South for Tilden
means he old rebel element united in
his support. The question now is, shall
the unity of this element with the igno-
rance of the North win the ballot box:
Will the combination at the polls prove
stronger than on the battlefield? For
the loyal people of America we answer,
no! The combination will be defeated,
utterly destroyed in November, and the
party that to-day covets victory through
this corrupt influence will be over
whelmingly repudiated by the people,

The Southern siruation.

At Cabinet meeting tomorrow il l..
expected that the situation at the South
will receive the largest attention. Some
most significant reports, many OF them al
private character, have reached The Gov
erment which call for grave consideration.
Some official statement Concerning
Louisiana and South Carolina affairs will
be given to the press tonight. Iniorna-
ti"n of the most positive character has
been received that armed bodies of mount
ed men from Georgia are riding through
portions of South Carolina intimidatiny y
colored voters by threats or actual out
rage. These bodies armed, equipped and
drilled. and are in all respectsrebel cavalry.
They ride in connection with what appear
70 be reorganized companies OF Wade
!ampton's cavalry, with their old officers.
Some of these organizations have also ap-
peared in the western and northwestern
counties OF North Carolina. and their
work there is the same as that OF the
Georgia squadrons operating in South Car
olina.
A Letter has been received here from
q former Confederate officer. a man of
Southern birth. educated at the South, and
an extensive land owner in his native State.
Mississippi, who, since the war, without
being an active Republican. has voted the
Republican ticket. He details a system
of outrage and intimidation in that State
which seems incredible, and says the fact
is well understood among all his Demo-
cratic neighbors that Louisiana and South
Carolina are to be carried for the Demo-
cracy by fraud and whatever force may
be necessary to either keep the negroes
away from the polls, or so threaten and
overaws them that they will not dare to
vote the Republican ticket. He writes
that, although Southern man. whose life
long association have been with Southern
men. he will be compelled to abandon his
property and move North in case Tilden
is elected. The plan of carrying South
Carolina by such means as have been de.
scribed seems to be understood here, and
If it failed dependence was upon the House
