On the 17th inst., returns had been received from three hundred and forty-six •ities, towns and plantations, embracing RlltliR State incorporated for election purposes with the exception of abojjt one hundred huihII places, which wjll.»nfft swell the majority very materially.— Tluiflf) retumfl are mostly official, and show that in the 340 towns thwo has beon cast a total voto of 121,290, Gov. Chamiierlain having a majority ol 21,214 o\or 1'n.LSBURi". This majority is above the estimate of the State Republican Committeee, owing to tho unexpectedly large increase of the Republican vote in the smaller towns. Tho remaining towns may brine^ tho total voto up to 127,000, and give a Republican majority of,be. twecn 22,000 and 23,000.

The Senate will bo unanimously Republican, with tho exception of the delegation from Knox county, where Democrats worn elected. The dominant party will be stronger in numbers in the House of Representatives than it was last winter, while in tho list of members elect but one or two names of Democrats of any prominence in public life can be found.

ARE you in favor of taxing the government securities "in any manner, shape or form ?"—Journal.

First tell us whether or not you hold, with your State organ, ihat "tha bonds of the United States are

not

subject to taxa

tion by Stato and local government, for the reason that the credit of the general government might be endangered by the taxing power of the States, if the right to levy taxes upon that species of wealth was conceded or allowed to the State governments."

When you shall have settled upon a "Snuncial policy" in relation to taxing bonds a? well as in relation to the payment of thsm, and shall have defined your position, you will be in a proper atitude to ask questions. At present the organs and orators of your party have

finan

cial policy." In one State they howl for "open repudiation." In another they yell "greenbacks." In another they resolve, "That gold and silver ia the only constitutional legal tender, and while we would have but oae curroncy for all, the Democracy of Massachusetts, now as in the pust, are true to their old faith in hard money while your candidate for the Vice Presidency declares it "is idle to talk of bonds, greenbacks, gold, the public faith and the public credit."

You are all at tea, and all going out with the ebb tide of the worst defeat that ever befell any party at any time.

That is, to get rid of obnoxious laws, it is very good way" to trample on them. The Democratic national platform de mands:

"Equal taxation of every species

An example will illustrate the beauties of Democratic taxation, as demanded by the platform which Seymour has ac cepeted as the guide of his admistration.

is to be^ taxed. Let's see.

A mkmiskr of the colored Democratic Club of Augusta, Ga., has recently resigned, saying in his letter "Starvation and death may come, and me without dollar in my pocket, and still I will be a Republican, and always will be, so as to have an equal show before the law." He had evidently heard from Vermont, and when the news from Maine reaches the South, the wavering will quite ganerally be nerved up to stand for the right.

During the last session of Congress a bill prohibiting the counting of tho Electoral College votes of the three States— Virginia. Mississippi, and Texas—still unrepresented, was passed against the strenuous opposition of the Democracy'and of

Mr. Johnson. In his veto message the latter declared that tho new governments recogni cd by Congress were revolutionary in character. Blair caught up the sentiment, echoed it in his revolutionary letter, and tho pro-rebel Democracy have chimed in with it. without regard to the voice of public opinion, and without respect to tho sanctity of the laws.

Hire is another beautiful illustration of the effects of the Democratic theory of

taxing "eveiy species of prpptriy, according to its valued

Look ul it. Hero is a

Ooulp any one now really believe that the Democracy were, in 1S64, most bitterly opposed to t&e amendment abolishing slavery, which is in_ tho following

words: SectionV Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment'for crime, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. akc. 2. Congress shall have power to enforco this article by appropriate legislation.

And yet such was the fact, and it went to the polls in 1S66, when tho party was so overwhelmingly defeated.

How Was Done,

*TEe following is the conclusien of a long and able editoral in the JNew York

Tribune

upon tho election in Maine. "We

commond it to tbo attention of our friondswho would liko to see a similar rosult achieved in this State:

There can be no explaining, no denying, no depreciating this vote. The Democratic organization sent its last man and its last dollar into that State. The most popular Democrat in tha country—Hud the true choice of the party for the Presidency—was sent to charm the citizens with the seductive tones of his Copperhead eloquence. Every sentiment of home interest, every feeling of State pride, ever prejudice, was addressed. Every point was contested with bitter earnestness, and the result to-day shows an overwhelming defeat. Maine is true to the Union. She writes "Diriqo" over this canvass—and as she directs, Ohio and Pennsylvania and Indiana will, wo hope, gladly follow. The Democratic party passes out of existence as a living party. To-day its membership represents nothing but the disappointments of greedy politicians the ignoranco of political Bourbons tte revenge and hatred of defeated Rebellion. All that is left of that proud party whose ideas came from the teeming brain of Jefferson—and whose hosts were marshalled by Jackson —are the fast dissolving fragments of

Northern Copperheadism, and the furtive, sneaking assassins who plot murder in the caves of the Southern States. It is easy to talk of "reaction," and of "change," and of "counter-revolution." But upon the issues of the Democratic platform it would be as easy to summon back the columns that marched to Appomattox under Lee as to restore to power the Democratic part}- of the United States. There will, no doubt, always be a "parly in opposition," and issues may arise which may place it in power, but the "party in opposition" can never tri umph so long as it fights the battles of Slavery, Repudiation, and Rebellion! These issues are as dead as tho cause of the Stuarts, as Girondism, Federalism, or the Tory contests of the Revolution. The children of the men, who to-day are conspiring with Wade Hampton and Horatio Seymour to restore tho Rebels to pow er, will feo as anxious to forget their falh crs' votes as the descendants of Tories are now to forget the course of their ancestors in the Revolutionary War.

While we exultingly comment upon this triumph, and draw from it auguries of a certain victory in November while we believe we see in this uprising in Maine the coming ol that Tidal Wave which is to sweep every organized remnant of Rebellion out of the country, we take a lesson of a more practical nature:

Maine was carried because we fought to carry it. Triumph came from work. Our friends meant to win—and they won.

Wo suppose that a daily refutation of the Ho embraced in the words "are exempted from taxation/' will have not the slightest effect in stoppingits repetition until after the election. But we' will puncture this mendacious assertion once more. In the first place more than GOO uiillions of our bonds havo been sold by our citi7,ons to foreigners, and aro now owned in Europe, and are beyond the reach of taxation besides which thepro-

ceeds

of those bonds—the property received in exchange for them—are now taxed by State, county and municipal authority just the same as other property. 2. One thousand millions of bonds, con* 3tituting the capital of the ^fational Banks, savings bank3, life marine and fire insurance companies, are fully taxed at the value of such eapital stock, by State and municipal governments. 3. The General Government levies an income tax of

five per cent

ry township, every county, was canvassed. Tho friends of Freedom gave up every consideration and necessity of business to the country. They worked as they had not worked since the days of Harrison, Fremont, and Lincoln. The issues were presented, the votes were brought out, and victory was won. Let our friends in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana imi tato these Yankee Boys in their discipline, their resolution, their harmony, and their enthusiasm. Their triumph will be a3 glorious and overwhelming, and the ideas of November will bring us that peace and prosperity for which the nation has so vainly and patiently longed.

The Bond Tax Question.

From 11"' (Mili-ago Tribuut-J. A Copperhead sheet, whose motto is, "A lie well stuck to is better than the truth," repeats for the hundreth time the following falsehood "Two thousand millions of dollors in bonds—one-oighth of tho entire wealth of the country—so invested as to draw six per cent [some only five per cent] interest in gold, equal, at present rates to about ten per cent interest [hardly 8£] in Treasury notes, are exempted from taxation."-

on the interest

of all bonds held in the United Statep, bring the same ra'e of taxation as on profits derived from any and all other source0.

The bond tax matter, summed up .stands thus Whole amount of bonds.. $2,100,000,000

Total bonds taxed $1,600,000^000 Bond? not subject to State taxation 500,000,000 Bonds subject to Ave per cent, income tax 1,600,000,000

In five years' time 1,000 millions of bonds havo been invested in banking, insurance, savings institutions, trust funds, public charities and educational institutions, and thereby became liable to State and munincipal taxation as "shares of stock." This procoss is going on rapidly, and in a few years more every bond not held in Europe, will be thus absorbed, in vested and taxed. How false and ridiculous the assertion that the bonds are all exempt from taxation

Oroide Watches.

Messrs. C. E. Collins & Co., No.*37 and 3i) Nassau Street, Now York, will give a really good Watch, with good works and an Oroide case, for Fifteen Dollars. Oroide is a costly bronze, precisely resembling gold, wearing like it, and never changing color like pinchbeck. W7o have examined these "Watches, and found them .rood and cheap and are satisfiod that they are fully what Messrs. Collins & Co. representthem to be. Their ladies' Watches are very beautiful, and we know of no present so cheap which wonld be more acceptable. The very small proportion of gold which is given in most of the so-call-ed gold watches of the presont day render* them practically ofno greater value than Oroide.
