AUGUSTA, Me-. Sept. s.-The Republicans have
made a large gain in the election, but it is not
settled by the returns received whether DAVIS is
elected by the people or not The Republicans will
have a large majority In the House. which will give
them control of the Legislature on the joint ballot
even should the Senate have majority OF fusion
members TIE character of the Senate Is In doubt
at this hour, but Republicans think IL may yet be in
their power. The Republicans will be able by their
majority on Joint ballot to elect the Executive

they have not elected maiority Of the senate.

NEW STEAMSHIP LINE TO GREAT BRITAIN.

new line OF steamships to ply between New
York and Barrow-in-Furness will shortly be estab-
lished in connection with the Anchor Line. The
project has been in contemplation for several years
1t is hought that the steamers will reach Barrow
in-Furness in about the same time the vessels
going to Glasgow reach that port. because the latter
are generally delayed at GTeenOck, waiting Tor a
suitable tide. The line will also take merchan-
disc 10 point where they can be easily trans
ported 10 Belfast. his may be done by the Belfast
ami Barrow steamers which cross the IRISH Sea
north of the Isle of Man. 1t will also be cheaper to
carry goods IRON Barrow-in-Fumess TO York and
other points in the vicinity than by the way Of
Liverpool The new line will be running in about
"A month.
