THE MAINE ELECTION.

At the election in Maine, Monday, there
was Il governor, five candidates for congress
and members of both houses Of the lCglsla-
ture elected. There were also two conItlIu-
tional amendments voted On. The first OF
these amendments provided for the election
Of governor by' Il plurality i's!ead
of majority vote rs had before
been the law, and If adopted then
in all elections hereafter, the guber-
material candidate receiving a greater mum
Der of votes than his opponenr, when
more than two candidates are running, Will
be elected. The second amendment provides
for changing the terms of Office of represen-
tatives and senators TO conform with an
amendment adopted in 1879. A separate box
was provided for the votes on these constltu-
tional amendments as per statute enacted
March last. The legislature just elected
will choose United States senator
to succeed Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, whose
term expires on March 4th, 1881. As there
is no doubt of the success ofthe Fusion ticket
and that the Fusionsts have majority in
both houses, Mr.. Hamln will have to retire
to the Quotude of private life. The last
legislature WAS Republican on joint ballot
by thirty, five majority, but a change has come
over the spirit of the peoples dream since
that election. The Republican newspapers
rang the changes on the action OF
Governor Garcelon last year In his Efforts to
carry out the law and to purify the ballot
box, and said that it would crystalizs Re-
publicanism In Maine, and that it was the
death knell of the opposition. 1t seems that
the people of that state were not much al
facted by what Governor Garcelon did, ludg-
ing from tho way they have voted this time
They probably understood the mat
ter better than did the Republican
organs outside of the state. There
were four state tickets, or rather candidates
for governor Daniel +. Davis, Republican
luT Ie-elcCllOn, llhTEls W. L lhstcu, Il uoluh'
it; VIM. z. JOY, Prohibitionist, and Nye
Enforced Prohibitionist. Joshua X. Osgood
was the first enforced Prohibition candidate,
but withdrawing, Mr. Nye, president of th'
society of enforced Prohibitionists, was ap
appointed in his stead. The fusion move
ment was simply a combination
of the Democracy and Greenbacker'
to defeat the Republicans. They joined
their forces and made war under one banner
the agreement being that the Greonbackors
were to have tho governor and legislature
and the Democrats the presidential electors,
THIS insures tho election of GrGonbacker
to the United States senate vice Senator
Hamlin, whose time will expire, and
there ia little doubt Blu. that Hon. Solon
Chase will DO the man. He is one Of the
ablest oxpounders of the Greenback faith in
the country ard yields vast influence with
his party at home and elsewhere. He would
have been given the presidential nomination,
but could not DO prevailed upon TO accept
it. He possibly saw ahead to his election TO
the United States senate. The following
table of the vote cast in past years will not
be uninteresting:

religious and moral. In each Of these de-
partments woman has now distict position
1t is unnecessary to prove her capacity for
earning her living; the census of 1870 does
that better than any argument. Ofl,64o,l lo
females, 323,79l were engaged in agriculture,
1923, $50 in manufactures and mining, l7,SS2
Ia trade and transportation and 976,529 in
rendering personal and professional services
After reviewing the crusade, woman's mis-
sionary work, the Catholic and Protestant
sisterhood,, the grange, Mrs. Wells thus con-
cudes; "In reviewing in broad outlines
these various kinds of enterprises, tits evident
that while special undertaking here or
there has failed, yet taken in classes, these
organizations have all succeeded and multi
piled. 1t Is doubtful whether there is a
single one which has been wholly unsuccess-
full. The three requisites for any organize
ton seem to be implanted within them all
ardor, forethought and imagination"

ITALY has scheme on foot to levy an i'm.
port duty on cotton seed oils, which, ifdoae
will greatly initiate against the trade of this
country with that country in this particular
commodity. Italy has been and is yet the
largest purchaser of cotton seed oils of all
other foreign countries These oils are there
refined and shipped to other European ma.
tlons and to the South American states
as olive oil and there used for table
purposes. The only defense the American
manufacturer Of cotton seed oil has Is to
compete for the trade of these countries. If
1t win pay to ship cotton seed oil to Italy.
and then refine II and export it as olive oil,
II will pay American manufacturers to re-
fine ii and ship It, without deception, as cot.
ton seed table oil. It would take some time,
II Is true, to build up demand for IT as gen.
uine article, but it can DO done, and why not
do NJ People buy oleomargerine now,
knowing II to DO manufactured article, and
because II Is cheaper and just as good as
butter.

WHEN at tho annual meeting of the
national Women Suffrage convention in
Washington three years since, Isabella
Beecher Hooker called attention to the fac,
that in many of our police stations young
girls and drunken men were often crowded
into the same room, with no woman matron
near, and suggested that the presence of a
woman matron was needed, etc. the Journal
i,tic world smiled and ridiculsd, but the
Milwaukee Sentinel reports the following
"Ata meeting Of the common council, an
alderman reported the following resolution :
Resolved, That his honor the mayor and
chief Of police are hereby requested and
authorized to appoint an additional member
Of tho police force, who shall be woman;
who shall have charge of all female prisoners
in the several police stations, so far =.
properly comes within the sphere of woman;
a1d such other duties as his honor the mayo r,
and chief of police may prescribe and direct.

THE occupation tax being under discussion
in the house on the Goth of March, 1870, Mr..
Daniel, of this county, thus recorded his
vote: 81 vote nay because in my opinion
tho tax levied by this bill is unjust, unequal
and unconstitutional, and because am OPP.
posed to all occupation taxes, and
the occupation tax in this bill
is in many instances excessive and OPP
pressive; and further believe it to be the duty
of this legislature to diminish instead of in.
crease the burdens of taxation, already too
heavy"

No better description of the late Sexton Brown Of New York, has ever been written than that penned-by Mir. William Alien Butler, the lawyer poet of this city, in the poem entitled ''The Sexton and the Thermometer" in which in verse is told an amusing incident of Mir. Browns career. After. describing Grace Church, but not by name, in easy verse, the poet continues: One Diggory Pink of this church was the sexton, ~1a &oGe of your sextons grave, gloomy and gruff, ssB Bell ringers, pew openers, takers of snuff, Busters Of cushions, and sweepers of aisles ' s., But gentlemen sexton, readily enough .iEqrs boys and go9d manners, sweet. speeches ...5 and smiles. .0ur..lG-st ,s ~s.-.t.,,.3s.ts < gentleman; too, of SC! much versatility,
