Maine Election.
[ The Washington Union says : “ Further re
turns indicate that the recent election for gov
ernor and State officers in Maine has result
e !, as usual, in a large plurality of the popu
lar votes for the democratic candidates, and a
4ery decisive democratic majority in both
branches of the legislature, notwithstanding
the union of the free soilers and whigs in
Saany ol the districts. The Boston Post of
Wednesday, contains the following details of
the result, so far as received :
| Maine Election. —The vote on Monday
Was quite small. In Bangor and some other
t< uus it was doubtless affected by the preva
lence of the cholera. The democratic net gain
in Bangor was over 300; in Portland about
go, the vote being for Hubbard (dem.) 761 ;
Hamlin (whig) 000; others 106.
The democrats gain one member, in Brad
bury, who was removed from the collector
\ ship by General Taylor.
I In Y ork county, the democratic majority
igbr governor is about 600. Twelve democrats
# ul 4 whigs are chosen representatives, and
ti e democratic county commissioner and
treasuicr.
I There has probably been no choice of gov
ern' by the people ; but the legislature will
b V. r e!y democratic, as usual, and the de
mocratic ascendency maintained,
i “The Boston Courier (whig),thus speaks ot
the hopeless prospects of federalism in Maine :
1 “ The State is apparently so irrecoverably
#nti-whig, that few men can be found with
and perseverance sufficient to stem
th“ political tide which floats against them. —
If a! i the whigs of the State had fought the I
battle bravely as those who won the vic
tor-r at Calais, the battle would not have been
leu, notwithstanding the immense chances in
favor of the democrats.”
I “"L’his election was important to both par
ti. The new legislature will be required to
in ike a new organization of the representative
districts, upon which will depend the election
o; a United States Senator. Great efforts were
therefore made by the whigs to bring about
an alliance with the free-soilers, and thus se
cure the legislature. And we are informed
that that notorious but bungling manager of
the cabinet, Truman Smith, visited the East
for that purpose. The whigs succeded, as
ihey did in Vermont, in detaching the federal
fi ‘e-soilers from their own candidates; but
Mexican Taylorism is at so low an ebb in
Id,tine, that even with such assistance they
have made no perceptible headway against
the democrats.”
Akktval of the Thomas Bennett at Pana
ji.v,—A telegeaphic despatch received in
Charleston from New York, mentions (per
The Empire City,) the arrival of the ship
Thomas Bennett at Panama, from that port, —
time of her arrival not given.
The Georgia Election.
; AVo copy the following article from the
Charleston Mercury of the Isth inst. Some of
oar whig friends must aeknow ledge that
there is “more truth than poetry” in it.
5 We promise our readers that unless we find
U necessary and proper, this is the last article
ve shall write on t:ie Georgia election. We
did not dream, when we begun, of the world
ot mischief we were preparing for our Whig
iv ighbors over the river. Taking it for grant
ed that, as far as they were concerned, there
might be truth in the assertion some of them
J.tve been so fond of making, that the Mer
cury has no influence out of South Carolina,
how c.uuld we foresee that a paragraph of ours
about rh.Nir candidate, would set the whole
■\\ h, T camo in an uproar? One would suppose,
from the terms in whicn they vent their feel
ings, that we had ordered out our Praetorian
Cohorts to apprehend their corresponding
Committee, suppress their newspapers, and
take away their right of voting. We assure
them we have no intention of going that
length.
I The Milledgeville Recorder, the metropoli
tan organ ot the Georgia Whigs, indignant
like the rest, at the enormity ot our “inter
ference in its State elections,” is also especially
offended at our insinuation that its party “re
c nun ended their candidate on the ground
that he was the opposite of a temperance man.”
jMore we take up that matter, we desire to re
mind the Recorder of certain things which, if
overiy considered, will effectually relieve us
from tin- charge of impertinently interesting
'Ourselves in the career of its political friends.
I Has the Recorder forgotten the time when
it and its friends belonged to the same party
with ourselves, the great and devoted State
Rights party? W hen it and they claimed to
be among the foremost champions of strict
construction, and ready to go with those who
went farthest in warfare upon protective tariffs,
national banks, and federal internal improve
ment; when they gathered around Mr. Cal
houn as their natural leader, and turned with
aversion from Mr. Clay, as vainly endeavoring,
tv the brilliance of ins talents, to screen the
tfongor and the rottenness of his measures?
And what has been the history of the Georgia
hnate Rights party since? Has Mr. Clay chang
ed his principles, or Mr. Calhoun abandoned
his, lojusttiy them in repudiating the latter,
and becoming the most devoted followers of
tiie former? I'hey have made themselves the
apologists and supporters of the|very measures
they were once prepared to nullify. Still more,
thev have denounced as traitors and deserters,
nil those who would not make the same sacri-
Ifice of principle to party. Colquitt, Cooper,
I Black, Howard, Lamar, Chappell, Gardner,
Jackson— a long list of able and highminded
leaders, have received the full .measure of their
unciation, because they refused to carry
fr ■ the banner of State Rights to the camp of
III ; ecalism.
•• • the Georgia Whigs now any principles
hey are willing to avow, and to stand
Sen ... jy a fair judgment upon them? If so,
Swe should be glad to seethe proof of it- Cer
ftain’y they did not show it when they nomi
imated the “hero of AVithlacoochee” for Gov-'
e>uor, and undertook to carry Georgia by
I military enthusiasm. Certainly they did not
show it when they gathered around “Old
I Zuck” as the “no-party candidate for the
Presidency. Nor when, after they had pledged
I themselves in Convention to support no man
I who favored the A\ ilmot Proviso, they gave
the vote of Georgia to Millard Filmore ! !
From their past course we might fairly
I expect, then, that the Georgia AVhigs would
get up some hobby for the uses of the present
i election. The Recorder is offended at our
I intimation that they have sought favor lor
| their candidate “on the ground that he is the
I opposite of a temperance man.” Be it re
| membered that we merely mentioned, and
that playfully, a matter that was conspicu-
I ously discussed in the Georgia papers, and
that, long before we alluded to it, the Whigs
, were charged with bringing forward this ac
■ cusatbn of excessive conviviality against
I their candidate, in order that by parading
| their admission of its truth, they might se-
I cure him the sympathy of all the hard drink-
II ers of both parties. It is not pretended that
R all Whigs, or all their newspapers,
| pes to this brilliant m anoeuvre; but there are
strong reasons for supposing that it was part |
of the plan of the campaign with some of them.
There is no other way of accounting for the
natoriety which has been given to Judge Hill’s
social habits. It is now known that imme
diately after his nomination the Central De
mocratic Committee suggested to all the De- i
mocratic Editors to make no allusion to this
matter during the canvass, because they
thought such personalities would degrade the
party discussions, and because they believed
such allusion would afford the Whigr a de
sired opportunity to invite to their support all
the strong prejudices existing against certain
extreme measures proposed by a few zealous
temperance men. It is averred on their side,
that the caution was studiously observed by
the Democratic press, until tho Whigs them
selves, tired of waiting for the game to be
flushed by their opponents, started it them
selves, and by their labored apologies for the
“ single fault” of their candidate, actually in
vited attacks upon him.
In conclusion, the Recorder may be assur
ed, that if it will come back to the platform of
its ancient principles, and stand where it and
its party once stood—by the Constitution and
the rights of the South —it will have no cause
to complain of the reprehension or the “inter
ference” of the Mercury.
