Ex-Governor Jewell returned to New

the election in Maine, and he readily gave
it.
"While the result of the election may

THE ISSUE DEFINED.

General Grants letter to General
Arthur is the best Republican effort of
the canvass so far. 1t is as broad as the
great issue Of the campaign; and as clear
as sunlight. General Grant fought for
nationality, and his magnificent fighting
h back of his present words. He sees
that there can be no peace, no end of sec
tionalism, no final settlement, until the
idea of nationality for which he fought
ceases to be opposed by "solid South. >
Is not this as clear as any of the prop
ositions of geometry Under the flag of
estate rights are marshalled all the
old rebel leaders. If they win, by the
help Of the foreign-born voters of the
large Northern cities. the old rebel flag
will be saluted with yells of delight from
the Potomac to the Rio Grande. The
North would then realize that rebellion
in possession of the government was a
far worse and more dangerous thing than
secession confronted by the North, plus
the Federal government.
General Grant knows the South: no
man better. He has been kind and
friendly and magnanimous; no man more
so. His courage is of too quiet and I'M
demonstrative a sort to permit him to
indulge in nervous apprehensions, and he
is too intensely practical to wander into
vagaries of the imagination. But he sees
the old forces arrayed for the old cause,
under the old leaders, and sounds the
alarm, and points out the only way in
which the impending dangers can be met
and peace will be assured. Says he, in
his letter to Gen. Arthur:
/ hope you may have rousing meeting
that may awaken the people to the i'm
portance Of keeping tie control IF tile Cor

The Feeling in WASHINGTON.

| REJOICING OF THE REBEL ELEMENT
DEMOCRATS SCRPRISED-REPUBLIC
| NOT Observation-Disclosures CAUSES OF
THE MAINE RESULT.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-Those Repub-
! liGans of Maine who voted yesterday with
/ the FusionistS can have the satisfaction
of knowing that they have given all the
I old rebel elements of this District a hap
py and hopeful day. Men who have been
/ in the background since they came out
of the Old Capitol Prison, and men who
all through the war richly deserved to be
in it, We're vigorously celebrating to-day.
| Men who re,joiced when Lincoln died and
who gloritied Wilkes Booth, We're reeling
about the hotels and bar-rooma
The army of Southern claim agents
was out for a dress parade Men by the
score whose faces never lighted up dur
ing the war except when there was news,
of rebel victory, were busy handshak-
ing and congratulating their fellows, In
short, there has not been such general
/ pleasure among the classes indicated
since the day when the Democrats re-
gained control of Congress. They are
! all celebrating the result of yesterday as
a sure indication that the Democracy will
capture the Executive Departments next
and thus open the Treasury to them.
Republicans were, of course, both as
tonished and momentarily discouraged,
but So far rs the surprise was concerned,
the Democrats shared it equally with
their opponents. They had made no an
engagements for dispatches last night, and
in fact, few OF them visited their head
quarters. The crowds at the various
places where news could be had were al
most entirely made up of Republicans.
The Democrats were generally at home,
convinced that the morning dispatches
would relate a Republican victory.
After the first few hours of disappoint-
ment, the Republicans rapidly recovered
and tonight the general feeling is that
the Maine result will have the effect to
spur the whole party to redoubled efforts
to secure success. The electoral vote of
Maine is regarded as safe enough for the
Republicans, and there is great conf
dence felt by the Congressional Commit
tee managers that the additional work
which will now be undertaken will more
than counterbal the effect OF the
Maine result in the October States. The
later dispatches of the afternoon, to the
effect that Reed was elected in the Port
land District, instead of defeated, that
the delegation i'll Congress remained un
changed. and the news that the Legisla-
ture had probably gone Republican, in
turn dampcned the ardor Of the celebra-
ting Democrats and revived the Repubi-
cans.
1t is well understood here that the Sen
atoria question and the issues relating to
the supremacy of individuals in the man
agement of party affairs in the State ex-
erted considerable influence, and what
ever detection there may have been
among Republicans is here mainly at
tributed to causes Of this general nature,
1t is confidently expected that these will
all disappear at the November election,
and that the Garfield electors will be
chosen by "A handsome majority.
