We reconed without the return ing board in our last weeks estimate of the result of the Maine election. Controlling the election officers and having the last count, the republi- cans have repeated the steal of 1876, and counted in Gov. Davis. This is but the forerunner of other stupen- dous outrages contemplated by the dominant party to retain power. Whether it will win in the end re mains to be seen.
 LATER.-The latest intelligence from Maine shows that with all their manipulations, the republicans are about to lose the State. The latest returns give the fusion candidate 16C plurality, and five towns to hear from. The fates seem set ngainst the republican party.

In the recent state election she largest vote ever boiled in the state was cast amounting to 12S,1ll votes. By the recent census it is estimated that we have in the state l60,000 voters, and by deducting 12S,lll, It will bs seen that 3l,229 voters re mained away from the polls and will lingly deprived themselves of the elective franchise.

 To the citizens of Pope and adjoining counties: 1 have just returned from the eastern markets where 1 have bought largely and overstocked myself. My house is full from top to bottom, and although my trade is large and rapidly increasing. 1 can see that the cotton crop is going to fall short of the estimate, and that our farmers will have to resort to the greatest economy. They must buy their goods at lower figures and self their cotton well. In yiew of this fact 1 have marked my immense fall stock FULLY TEN PER CENT. LOWER than goods have ever before been offered, and am paying the highest cash price for cotton. So when you come to Russellville don't stop your wagon till you have driven right up in front of my store, and don't be satisfied till have bought your cotton and sold you all you want. I can save you money. J. l.. SHINN.

Our democratic brethren of the Fourth district are now engaged In game of child's play which we very much fear will result in meal culable harm to them. We refer to the go as you-please race for con gress in that district. Messrs. Gun ter and Peel, two distinguished democrats, and Col. Samuel Murphy, a republican, are in the field, and with anything like an equal division of the democratic strength, Col. Murphy's chances are decidedly the best for election. With undoubted defeat staring them in the face, it is to be hoped our democratic friends over in the Fourth district will grasp the situation, and set about settling their differences among themselves, and present an united front to the enemy. Sufficient time is left in which to call a convention of the counties and thus makevictory doubly sure for the district.
