Cheering Results.

The results Of the municipal elections so
fer held In Maine are cheering to the Repub-
ucaas. The rout which the Democracy ex-
perieneed In this city has not been aupli-
Gated In any other city as yet, but in most
OF them signal Republican victories have
been won. Lewiston, which last year was
Democratic from top to toe, has been re-
deemed as far as the Mayor is concerned,
though the Council is still in the hands of
the enemy. The Republicans of Lewiston
eontended against great odds. The check

The Mexican pension bill as it passed the
House is much less Objectionable measure
than IL was when introduced. The provision
for the pensloning of all who served thirty
days In the Creek and Seminole wars and
ether ''Indian disturbances" was struck out,
and, as passed, the bill pensions only those
who served sixty days IN the Mexican war.
JEFF Davis is excepted. There were only
fofiy-six votes against it. Mr.. Milliken was
the only Maine Congressman who voted for
the measure, Mr.. Reed, Mr.. Boutelle and Mr..
Dingley voting against 1t. The bill will take
several millions from the treasury, and be-
stow them upon men large percentage Of
whom have no substantial Claim to it. Had
IL been considered strictly upon its merits it
veuld probably have been defeated, but
pension bills seldom are considered in that
way. The average Congressman does not
possess sufficient courage to take the risk of
depicting his constituency which is in
volved In vote against pension bill.
