THE ex-Confederates are doing
their best to put a sugar coating on
a bitter pill, and are reasoning away
the objections that arise in theSouth-
em mind to supporting a Union
soldier for Office. They are even
claiming that Hancock got on the
wrong side during the war from ne
cessity, and not from choice. Listen
to this, from an Alabama paper:
Oh. yes, General Hancock was a
Federal soldier, and fought in the
Union army. He belonged to the
military service Of the country, and
it was his professional duty to follow
the stars and stripes in obedience
to the command of his superiors.
He did his duty. General Garfield
quit the vocations of teacher and
preacher, volunteered his services
(as did General Weaver, the Green
back Idol, to fight in the Federal
army, and aid in conquering the
South and establishing the perpetui-
ty Of the Union. so far the candi-
dates for the Presidency are on equal
footing, except that Hancock was
without choice, while Garfield and
Weaver volunteered their services

TELEGRAM OF SENATOR ELAINE TO
CHAIRMAN JEWELL.
AUGUSTA, Sept. Il, 1880
Senetor Blaine sent the following
telegram to-day:
/ To Hon. Marshall JareH, Chairman
National Committee, Nctc York.
We have complete returns with
/ the exception Of a few distant plan
tations and ] give you summary
of the result. In the election of 1879
the Republicans lacked 1915 votes
of a majority. This year we have
made gains in twelve counties, held
our own in twocounties and in two
other counties we have made slight
losses. Our net gain in the whole
State is reckoned at 1900 as a mini
mum, with q possible maximum Of
1900, making Governor Davis re-
election a certainty 1t IS no longer
denied by his opponents. His ma
jority over Plaisted viii lprohablynot
be very much from 400. We have
chosen three-fourths of the county
officers, more than two-thirds of the
State Senate, and a large majority of
the House of Representatives, giving
us complete control Of the State
Government in all It's branches.
Our only regret is our failure to
regain thejFourth and Fifth Congress
sional districts. We succeeded in
reducing the majority in each to
about one-third Of the Fusion ma
ority two years ago. But Demo
cratic alarm over the results in Yer
mont caused the application of ar
guments in both districts during
the last week which we could not
meet.

To JUWo /. Gdcfeld Mmtor, Ohio
The net result Of Yesterdays election as
nearly as can be stated at this hour (3 p. ".
Tuesday j. about as follows: The Repub-
licans have carried the First, Second and
Third Congressional Districts, while the
Fusi0ni~t~ have carried the Fourth and
Fifth. The Republicans have carried both
branchc> of the Legislature bv strong
majority. reaching perhaps two-thirds Of
each House. ON the popular vote for Gov
ernor Davis and Piaisted have each over
1000 votes with the probabilities in favor
OF Plaistei coming out few hundred. per
haTS thousand ahead. The result is un-
dcniably a surprise 10 us and equally so to
the mass of the Democratic party in Maine.
OurcanvaSs was nevermore accurately taken
and il showed on Wednesday last a total
vote for Davis of a trifie over 1000, with an
assured majority of 6,0O0 at the minimum.
In the four day preceding the election we
lost oYer%.O 900 votes by means well known 10
the managers of the National Democratic
campaign, and which do not call for further
specifications from me. The total cost is
yariously estimated from S75.0O0to 500 600.
and the money all came from beyond the
State. Such scenes were never before wit
messed IN Maine. j. 6. BLAINE
