Despatch TO General Logan.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept. 9.-The following des-
spach has been sent to Gen. Logan today:
The result of the election may be thus sum-
married. The Republicans carried every county in
the State with the possible exception of Knox,
which is very close. They have elected 20 Senators
and the Democrats only two, and have chosen four
fifths of the representatives in the Legislature
They have elected the four representatives in Con-
gress by large majoritios, and have given to Gov.
Robbie popular majority of 1900. The Republic
can vote will reach very nearly 100000. four to
five thousand larger than ever before cast. Our
majority is the largest have had since the presi
dentia election of 1868, and fer exceeds our most
sanguine hopes
