Persecution of a Union Soldier.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1O.-A curious instance
of ex-Confederate persecution is reported in
BraXton county, West Virginia. "A Union SOL
dier named Beasley, who was assaulted during
the war on account of his Union principles, and
who in the difficulty wounded one of his assal-
ants, has been lying in jail year on charge
of violent assault i'll 1862. The ex-Confederate
court officials refused to give him trial. An
appeal is made to Union soldiers for contribu-
items to enable him to obtain counsel.
The Railway Telegraph Service.
A new step was taken by the railroads to ex-
tend the railway telegraph service yesterday.
The new American Union Company, the
American Rapid Company and the Baltimore
and Ohio and Wabash railroads filed their ac-
ceptance to do general telegraph business.
Expectations OF Grain.
The bureau of statistics has just made COM
pilation of the account of exports of grain
from the ports of New York Boston, Philadel-
phia and Baltimore for the month of July Of
this year as compared with July of last year.
From this statement it appears that there has
been very important decrease in the exporta-
tons from Boston and Philadelphia, while
there has been an increase in expectations of
both products from New York. In July, 1873,
there were exported from New York of corn
3.43S 259 bushels, and in July, 1879 3,312, 961
bushels. The exports of wheat from view
York in July, 1876, were 3,276,514 bushels,
while the wheat expectation increased in July,
1879 to 5,546, 6S6 bushels. The exports of corn
from Boston in July, 1878, were S95, bush
els, and in July, 1879, S04 623. The reduction
in the amount of exports of wheat is very
much greater. In July, 1888, Boston exported
261 ,527 bushels, which amount has decreased
in July, 1879, to 81, 500 bushels.

THE ELECTION. :
Republicans Jubilant Over the Re-
suit.
FRANKLIN SENDS GREETING

= The Kennebec Journals Figures.
AUGUSTA Sept. 10.-The Kennebec Journal
has received returns of the vote cast for Gov
ernor from 376 towns and plantations. The
otal vote cast in these is 124,274, divided as
follows: Davis 62,552, Smith 1914, Garcelon
1859, scattering 249. The majority of Davis
in these towns and plantations is $50.
The remaining 1913 towns and plantations
cast the following vote last year: Conner
52O1, Smith 4563, Garcelon 1859; total 1908.
The opposition to the Republicans had ma
iority in these towns and plantations last year
of 2612.
The same ratio of increase of the vote in the
towns not heard from as in those whose vote
has been received would carry the total vote OF
the state at the present election neer to 1885,
600, against total vote last year of 126,169;
and an equal ratio of Republican gains in
these 1913 towns and plantations as in the rest
of the state would leave Mr.. Davis lacking
from 800 to 500 votes of an election by the
people.
Franklin Elects a Republican Senator.
PENNINGTON, Sept. 10.-There is little doubt

THE CINCINNATI EXPOSITION
Grand Ovation to President and Mrs.
Hayes.


CINCINNATI, Sept 1O.-The streets Of the
city are crowded today and the buildings hand
somely decorated. The governors of Ohio,
Indiana and Kentucky, accompanied by their
stats, are present. President Hayes held a
general reception for an hour and half, dur
ing which vast throngs were presented to him
and Mrs. Hayes.
EAT o'clock the party took their places in
the procession. Arriving at the exposition
building, the Presidential party were escorted
to their places on the stage, when the formal
opening ceremonies took place, the address
being made by the President.
President Hayes in his speech said the expo
sition was held at most suspicious perlodl. IN
the commercial history of the country. The
great business depression has at last been sue
ceeded by a surely and rapidly extending
revival of prosperity. With all values mea-
sured and made steadier by currency which
is worth its face value in the markets OF the
world, our manufacturers are finding foreign
markets to an extent never known before.
Our national burdens, debt, expenditures and
taxation, are becoming every year less difficult
to manage. Our country is maintaining hon
orable and peaceful relations with all mankind.
He thanked the people of Cincinnati for their
reception and hospitality, and thought their
city could be rightly called the central city OF
America"
The procession today was fine throughout
the line of march, all the streets We're crowded
aud Windows filed with sight-seers. The first
division was purely military and acted as es-
cort for the President and distinguished guests
all of whom were heartily cheered along the
route. The trades display was the finest ever
seen in this city. AT the exposition building
Mrs Hayes and two hundred ladies viewed the
procession from the main balcony. After the
opening exercises were concluded the doors
were opened to the public, and until the clos
ing hour the buildings were crowded.

\. Y. Tribune.
The Maine Election,

The returns from Maine show that the Re-
publicans have made great gains on their vote
of last year, and that these gains are pretty
uniform throughout the State. 1t is not GER
tain, however, that they are sufficiently heavy
to give Davis, the Republican candidate for
Governor, clear majority over the combined
vote of Smith, the Greenbacker, and Garce-
Ion, the Democrat. A large share OF the Dem
ocratic vote has gone over to Smith, leaving
Garcelon in pitifully small minority. The
total opposition vote, however, holds well up
to the figures of last year. 1t would seem as if
the returns of the baclFtowns in Penobscot and
Aroo stock Counties, and far up the Kennebec,
where there are no telegraphs, will be required
to settle the question whether Davis is elected
by the popular vote. 1t was in these towns
that the Greenbackers made the heaviest ill.,
road on the Republican vote last year, and
there the heaviest Republican gains may be
looked for The percentage of Republican
gain figured in the Portland dispatches may
therefore be expected to increase as the fuller
returns come in. According TO the latest dis
patches last night, the chances are about even
for Daviss election.
The effects of the remarkable campaign thus
ended will not be fully felt at once. The
Greenbackers have kept together rather from
obstinacy than conviction-the obstinacy of
men not willing to acknowledge their error,
but in the heat of the Presidential conflict
next year their forces will doubtless melt rap
idly away. Then, too, it will probably be
found that the Democrats. by their unprinci-
pied alliance this year with the soft-money
party, have become so demoraliZed as to be in
capable of making a vigorous fight, and the
State will fall into the hands of the Republi-
cans, who will regain their old superiority
without half the effort they have put forth
this year. The Republicans have made a
splendid fight, and their thorough canvass of
financial questions has unquestionably cut up
the roots of the Greenback heresy. although
the plant may appear to be still in tiourishing
condition. In 1880 Mr.. Blaine and his coadju-
tors will find themselves faced by nothing more
formidable than distracted Democracy seek
ing to collect its scattered forces, and to bring
them together upon the ground which it aban-
doned this year to run after transient success
in company with the party of initiation and re-
pudiation.
The Maine Republicans may not have car
rled the State, but they have shown by their
work yesterday that their party got to the bot
tom of the hill in 1878, and has been gaining
ground ever since. If they have not achieved
a complete victory this year, they are evident
ly on the broad road to triumph in 1880, which
will fully restore them to their old proud posi-
ton at the head of the column of Republican
States,
