TIVE FEELING AT WASHINGTON.
CHICAGO, September 14th. - The Inter
Oceans Washington special says: The Maine
election has been the main topic of CONVEX

surprised at the result, the Democrats per-
haps even more than the Repubh cans, for
they had given up all hope of the Fusionists
carrying the State. Naturally they IRE over
come with joy, and have been venting their
enthusiasm in salutes and a Publication meet
ing this evening. The Republicans are dis
appointed at the result, as almost all of them
had counted with confidence upon electing
the Governor, and recovering one, if not
both, of the Congressional districts now held
by the opposition. at the same time they

from the over-confdence which the sweeping
victory in Vermont had produced, and stir
it up to vigorous work in the doubtful Suites.
