The returns of the State and Congressional election held in Maine yesterday, which we present below, are necessarily Incomplete, bir they are sufficiently explicit to show that Maine is jealous of her pat t record, and determined that the defeat of Grant.and Colfax shall result jrom no fault of her sturdy and Tbjal son. A Majority of 22,000 Conceded by tbe Democrats. Special Despatch to The Evening Telegraph. Portland, 8epL 15. The Argus, the Demo Cratic organ of this city, concedes tbe State to the Republicans by 22,000 majority, which is fully up to the claims of leadiDg members of tho Republican party. The Argus claims, however, that this majority will fall considerably below the estimate made by the party during the can Tass and thinks the results are satisfactory, as compared with the radical majorities for Be vera1 years. The vote in Cumberland county was Tery close, giving a Republican majority of only two votes. The returns so far received, are from only 209 towns, and show a Republican majority so far, in actual figures, of 14,739, but several stroDg Republican districts are yet to be beard irom. An Official Annotineement. Boston, Sept. 15. J. G. Blaine, Chairman of the Maine Republican Slate Ceutral Committee) telegraphs from' Augusta: "We have carried every Congressional District, even where the Tote is closest, by over 2500 majority. We have carried every county, securing three carried by the Democrats last year. We have elected every Senator and seven-eighths of the House of Rep resentatlves, and have rolled up a popular ma jority for Governor Chamberlain of 20,009." Portland, Sept. 15 Tbe election returns were enthusiastically received by a Republican mass meeting last night at the City Hall. To-night there will be a grand torchlight procession.

Thousands of enthusiastic Uulon men are col lected In and around tho Bepubilcan be ad quar ters, and the wildest enthusiasm prevails. Re turns showing more tban 300 gain in Portland, E39 gain in Bangor, and larse gains in Lewiaton and other places, having been read, created a furor. The Republicans claim 23,000 or 26,000 majority. The Hew York Times'1 special says: Augusta, Maine, Bep't 14. After a hard fought battle, we bave won a (treat victory. The gains are vr Urge In eveiy county but Koox, which went Democ ratio last year by a little less tban 41)0 majority, and which has again gone against Bi by a slipbtly increased majority. It is tbe only Democratic county in this State, Tbe Eeuate will aland 29 Republicans to 2 Demo crats. We have thus gained two Sena tors, besides a great many Represen tatives tbree In this county of Keunebec. All tbe Republican Congressmen are elected t3 verj ltgu mjuiitke,i.d ur ruiUis, at most, nothing to be gained another year. The returns indicate very much the largest vote vcr given, and aa large a Republican majority as we could desiie in the first real contest since the election of 1863, when 119,000 votes wero cast, and Governor Coney received 18,000 malorlty. It Is safe to promise from 2.1,000 to 30,000 majority for Grant and Collax in Novem ber. Tbe hopes of the Democrats had been raised blgh, and they lully expected to do as well as last year. This city was a great battle ground, but the Democratic rout here was complete. The New Tork World has the following fan tastic despatch, which we give by way of Yarievjj Bamuob, Mc, Sept. 162 A. M. The Demo cracy of Maine have to-day achieved a great victory, notwithstanding the most desperate elTorta of the Kepublicarn, and an Immense expenditure ot money. Tbe Republican majo rity has been reduced to fourteen thousand, beiog a Democratic gain of nearly fourteen tbousNnd over tbe last test vote oi 1866. The Democrats are rejoicing and holding a great meeting. The Kemiblicans, who anticipated twenty-nve thousand majority, feci blue. William II. MoCrillis, Cuarlrb W. Robkbts, E. W. Flaoo. An Attempt at Kevolntlon." A special despatch to the New York Tribune sa;s: Auoubta, Sept. 1410 P. M. A mob fight oc curred here at 4 P. M. Several men were in jured, and several Republicans were severely handled. The Rebels were maddened by their unexpected defeat in Angusta, and in the Third Ward revolvers were drawn and brickbats were hurled in tbe metropolitan style. A Republican meeting for exultation over the complete vic tory was held this evening, and Democrats are trying haid to break It up. About 200 drunken members of that badly whipped faction entered the hall and cheered fer Seymour and Blair. The Republicans replied by tbree roaring cheers for Grant and Colfax, and those near the door tried to oust the drunken brawlers. A hard fight ensued. Tbe Union men were at last victorious. The police, wbo are all Democrats, valiantly remained in the bacfc ground. One solitary Tanner was chased through many of the streets, but he escaped unhurt. Two hundred or three hundred of rioters are about tbe hall, and it is not safe for a Republican to attempt to enter. Damaged crowns and bloody noses are all round in tbe city, whereto-day was witnessed the most dis graceful scene that ever blackened the good name of Augusta. Comments of tbe Press.' The New York journals of this morning con tain the tollowmg editorial comments: The Tribune says: It is easy to talk of "reaction," and of "charge," and of 'couiiter-revolution." But upon tbe 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 party of tbe United States. There will, no doubt, always be a "party in opposition,' and issues may arise which may place it in power, but tbe "party In opposition" can never triumph so long as it fights the battle ot slavery, repudiation, aud rebellion 1 These issues are as dead as the cause of tbe Stuarts, a9 Girondist, Federalism, or the Tory contests of the Revolu tion. The children ot the men, who to-day are conspiring with Wade Hampton and Horatio Seymour to restore the Rebels to power, will be as- anxious to forget their fathers' votes as tbe descendants of Tories are now to forget the course of their ancestors in the Revolutionary war. While we exuitlngly 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 cooling of that tidal wave wbich is to sweep every organized remnant of Rebellion out of the country, we take a lesson of more practical nature: Maine was carried because we fought to carry it. Triumph came from work. Our friends meant t6 win and they won. Every township, every county was canvassed. The inends ot freedom gave np every consideration and necessity of business to tbe country, They worked as they had not worked since the days of Harrison, rremont, and Lincoln. Tbe Issues were presented, the votes were brought out, and victory was won. Let our friends in Pennsyl vania, Ohio, and Indiana imitate these Yankee boys in their discipline, their resolution, tneir harmony, and their enthusiasm. Tbeir triumph will be as glorious and overwhelming, aud toe Ides of November will bring us tbat peace aud prosperity for wbich the nation has so vaiuly and pat'ently longed. The Times says: Maine has done well. The election yesterday called out the heaviest vote ever cast in that State, and resulted in a decisive victory lor tbe Republicans. Tbe Republicans literally swept tbe State, electing their candidate for Governor, General Chamberlain (who had already twice deieated his opponent, Mr. Pillsbury), and five members of Congrers. Tbe majority for Gov ernor is about 20,000, being a gain of nearly 10,000 over that of last year. Tbe electiou was important maluiy as indicating the drift of pubii3 sentiment; and we think it shows pretty clearly tbat the drift is not toward a Democratic victory in November. Both parties made a very active and thorough canvass oi the State. The Democrats were especially energetic, as tbey felt the necessity of making heavy gains to show tbe "reaction" in public sentiment of which tbeir orators make so much account. But, as in the Vermont election, the gains are all the other way. Tbe reaction is not apparent. Our Democra'ic triends must wait a little longer lor it, lhis great victory shows tbat the people bave made up their minds to elect Grant and Colfax. Tbey want Union and Peace, and they know tbat these can be seenred only by tbe de'eat of Seymour and Biair, and the rejection of the Democratic Ilatlorra. , The World says: ' I "The figures are in every respect gratifying to tbe Democracy. Tbe Democrats in Maine bave made a splendid fight, and despite the heavy odds aealnst them have succeeded in reducing tbe radical majority of over 27,000 to a trifle over 18,000. A proportionate gatn in the Stales wblch hold their elections In October will give ns Penn sylvania, Indiana, and Ohio by handsome ma jorities, and in November will tiiampbantly elect Seymour and Blair. All honor, then, to tbe sturdy Democrats of the Pine Tree State. Tbey have fought a good fight and bave shown what pluck, energy, and persistence can accom plish In the face of apparently Insurmountable obstacles. They deserve and will receive tbe t bunks ot their fellow-Democrats throughout tbe entire country. The Herald says: . 1 It will be seen from the returns tbat the Republicans have carried tbe State by a largely Increased maturity over that of last year, and tbat a sort ol political earthquake has swept over tbe Pine Tree State. A DENIAL, , Ex-Clove mor Joseph E. Itrown Replies 1 1 10 Beunior lie nunc us. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 8, 1868. To the Editor of tbe Indianapolis Journa .-Your letter reached my office during my absence, which has caused tbe delay in my reply. From the newspaper slip which you enclose it appears that Senator Hendricks In bis canvass, upon the authority of a letter purporting to be from a Union soldier, c barges tba' I "issued an order at Andersouville gianung a furlough to every Rebel soldier on guard who would shoot a prisoner. " I pro nounce the charge lalse meanly and basely lalse. Every person who has Intelligence enough to be received into the service of tbe UnlteJ Slates as a private, to sav nothing ot a person holding or aspiring to a bigh portion, mat know, and does know, that the Federal prisoners captured by the Confederate armies were under the et elu sive command and control of the Confederate aamoiiiiv. As I slated In a letter to a prominent citizen of your State some days since, I never at any time during the war had a Federal prisoner of any name, rank, or grade in my possession or under my control. 1 had no more command over Aodersonville prison than the Governor of Indiana had. I was never at It during the war. fcuch was the bitterness of Mr. Davis towards me at the time the prisoners were confined in this State, on account of my refusal to favor his tytannical nod centralizing policy, tbat he neither advised nor consulted with me; nor did he tieat respectfully suggestions made by me. As a general role my advocacy of a cause which be had to decide was its greatest injury. It was not, thetelote, in my power to exercise any con trol whatever over the prisoners. If Senator Hendricks has resorted to this sort of misrepresentation upon a sublect about whlcb It seems incredible that he can be Igno rant, I must conclude he is haid pressed for argument to sustain the sinking revolutionary piatlorm upon which tbe New York Convention placed bim and his candidates for President and Vice-President, tbe meaning and objects of which are so clearly and truthfully expounded by Genrral Blair in his letter to Colonel Broad bead, which secured for him tbe nomination and has made him the idol ot such revolution ary leaders in the South as Toombs, Cobb, Ben Ilili, and others, who are ready again, if they can get sufficient encouragement irom the Northern Democracy, to trample the flag of the Union under their teet if they cannot engraft tb( ir policy upon the administration. I am fully satisQed tbat tbe election of Grant and Colfax is tbe only security left, to tbo coun try against oppression and wrong, attended by scenes of carnage more revoking than any through which we bave parsed from 1860 to the present time. Tbe great mass of tbe Americm people intend no such result. But it should oot be forgotten tbat a few wicked, heartless lead rs, whose political fortunes are wrecked, In their desperation have the will and the power, if not rebuked in time, to precipitate the Issue. The attempt to overthrow the governments established in the South by force, to which tbe Democratic platform and Blair's letter commit tbe party, will be the match to tbe magazine. Very respectfully, yours, Joseph E. Bhown. EUROPE. IiATEU KEWS BY STEAMER. By the arrival of the Holsata, at New York yesterday, wo have European advices to the 4th iiibt. ENGLAND. Minister Johnson and Mr. Roebnck, M. 1. at the Master Cutlers' Feast. The London Times of Sept. 4 contains the fol lowing: Ihe annual feast of tbe Cutlers' Company was held in Sheffield yesterday evening m tbeir new hall, under the Presidency of Mr. Mark Firth, Master Cutler. A distinguished company, con sisting of the elite of Sneiheld and its neighbor hood were present, among whom we noticed Earl Fitzwilliam, Lord Wbaruclitfe, Lord Den man, Mr. Reverdy Johnson, the American Min ister, Lord Milton, M. P.; Mr. Roebuck, M. P.; Lord Edward Howard, M. P.; General Lelroy, Mr. E. J. Heed, C. B.; AUermau btone, Sheild of London; the Mayors of Doncaster, Notting ham, Manchester, Halifax, and Sheffield; the Masters ot the Cutlers' Company, London; tbe Master of the Grocers' Company, London, etc. The usual loyal aud constitutional toasts wero given by the Master Cutler and most enthusias tically responded to. Mr. J. J. Smith next gave "The health of the Hon. Reverdy Johu&on, as the representative of the United States to the Court of this country." Tbe toast was drank with (treat enthusiasm. The Hon. Keveidy Johnson, on rising to respond, was received with much cheering. He said: Mr. Master Cntler, my lords and gentle men, I return you my most grateful thanks for the kind reception I have met with, and you, Mr. Smith, for the complimentary terms in which you bave brought lorward my name. You, have my warmest acknowledgment. 1 came to your country, gentlemen, as a messenger of peace (cheers); tbat messenger I raeaa to be. 1 could not be otherwise if I carried out the instructions of my Government. (Loud cheers. I I value your reception the more because it assures roe, in addition to the assurauces which I have bad since I landed upon your stores, that you eD tor tain a Irieudiy feel ing for tbe Government and the people of tbe United States (cheers), and I am most happv to assure you, my loids and gentlemen, that tbat leeling is warmly reciprocated. (Continued cheering.) I speak only what I koox, with every opportunity of becoming acquainted with the sentiment of my country -I know that for no people on the habitable globe is there a kindlier feeling entertained by those of tbe United States than tor the subjects of her Majesty. (Cheers.) We are, in tact, by origin and by Institutions, one people; we have a common name, a kindred blood, similar privi leges, and equal protection; and tbe.-e, in the language of one ot your philosophic statesmen, who taught the world what it was to bd just end Tight, "are ties stronger than links ot Iron." During the domestic trouble which agitated our land, and which brought to almost, every household sorrow and death, differences ot opinion were entertained, and it was not, there, fore, to be wondered at that differences prevailed here in England as to the causes and tbe justice of tbe struggle in wbich we were engaged. But the struggle now, thank God. Is at an end (loud cheers) our differences have disappeared, and I rejoice to believe that every day of the short dajs that 1 have lived with you satisfies me that I am justified in believing tbat all such differ ences here have disappeared. (Cheer.) We have become convinced that we must be one and indivisible. (Great cheering.) Nature by her mountain and her river and her oceao has proclaimed to us tbat we must be one, and I beg you to be assured that, as we are one, tbat very unity which will increase our prosperity ana power will increase, as I Lope and beiieve, your firosperity and power. (Cheers.) Our political nctitutions are like yours; they are fashioned from yours, and in the r foundation lies a deep and never dying attachment ot human liberty. In our band I mean in our joint baud tbat liberty will live forever. (Loud and contiuned cheering.) The troubles to which I bave referied, great as they were, sad and heart-rending as they have been, bave neen attended by one compensation. We had an in stitution, not Indigenous to us, but brought to us Irom a common ancestor-human slavery. (Hear, bear.) . Four millions of people were in that condition; how to abolish it without dangers even worse than those which followed from its existence was a problem. Our doraes'ic strife has solved that problem. Slavery, thank God, Is low exilnct (loud cheers) and no footprints are to be found on the soil of tbe United States but those of a freeman. (Cheers.) Dreadful as the havoc has been, prevailing as tbe slangh'er was, literally miting almost every battlefield wUh blood, In future times it will be said tbat all was well spent in getting r d of tbat blot not of our own creation, but of thtit blot wbkh taruishod the fair fame ot the United States and gave the lie to tbe Declaration of Independence, by wblch we c'aimed onr right to Ireedotn and liberty. (Cbeei.) Wbat is a man without liberty f It is liberty alone that gives to life its lustre aud P'rfume, and we are weeds without it." Mr Master ( utler and gentlemen, the political can vass whleh Is now on foot In the United Stares involves the question who shall be at the bead of tbe executive of tbat great country: but I beg to assure you, from my knowledge of both can didates, that whichever shall be the choice of the people you will find a friend of EuglanJ. Mr. W. Fisher proposed tbe toast of "Tbe House of Commons," which was responded to by Lord Milton. Mr. Roebuck who met with a very warm re ception, said: I feel most deeply the wav In wbirh vou bave received tbe mention of my jtaine, I congratulate yon, Mr. Matec Cutler, on account of Ihe distinguished gnest whom you have at jour right hand. He has come to us, as be tells us, under tbe belie I that he Is a minister of peace. He has come to ns as the representative ot the haughty offspring of a haughty parent, and I leel certain that in his hands there will be no degradation either to one country or to the other; that there will be no paltering with Interests, no sham expres sions of grandeur on the one side, or of humble ness 011 the other; but tbat we shall meet on terms of perfect equality and friendship, but desirous of doing all tbat can be done for tbe good of ourselves and of humanity In general. And I hope and I believe tbat Mr. Reverdy Johnson, from his character and his antece dents, will so conduct negotiations between this country aud his own that there will bo no lack of honor on one side or tbe other. (Cheers.) Now. sir, I believe that it I were prudent I shot'ld Dnlsb; but I am not a prudent man, and meeting here, as I believe, many friend', 1 wish to explain to them tbe feelings of my mind on tbe great changes that have ocenrred In the Government of tbe country since we last met in this he.ll. Now, first ot all, we mujt under stand aud acknowledge that tbe Government of this country Is no longer in the hand of the aiistocracy as represented by Lord Wbarncliflo, or of tbe middle cla-ses as representei by the Master Cutler. The Government of this country is now in the Lands ot tne working classes: we must not conceal this fact from ourselves; the thing has been done, and we must endeavor to meet It. Then comes the questiou wbich I wish to tnlk to you about whetner we must exoect good ( r not from it. Now, I am gla l to have Mr. Reveidy Johnson on the right of the Master Culler on this occasion, because this change has already been made in America, but, as I believe, made under more untavorablo conditions than in England. The circumstances have been more lavorable in America tban iu England, because of the almost boundless power wbich it pos sesses of giving grants of lmd to all cim?rs, wnicnwe nave not; dih more umavoraoie be cause there is poured into America a tide of con option, a peculcnt torrent of almost all the vice and turbulence oi Europe. We see the wild Irishman, tbe fiery Frenchman, tbe assassi nating Italian, and the dumbfounded Spaniard, all going out In one mass an I wishing to fulfil tbeir expectations in the mind of America. This we are free Irom. Our experiment in Eng land Is made with our own people alone; we, have Englishmen, we bave Scotcntuen, and we bave Irishmen, but we hive them alone to deal with; and my belief is to strong in tbe good feeling of my countrymen that I feel no harm will happen from having granted political power to them. After this, no man certainly will be able to say tbat we are cursed or miBled by tbe aristocracy, for the government of tbe country will bo in the hands of the people; and. although I believe that this Gov ernment will be for the interest and advantage of all classes, I wish to call attention to this fact. 1 am told tbat in America the better educated ciasses have withdrawn themselves from political life that they hive been ousted And driven Into the background by the vast population wblch have grown up around them. Tbe educated classes in America have stepped aside from the political torrent, perfectly con tented with their lot, and, feeling that they will be perfectly safe, have let political affairs settle in the bands of what may be called tne bucca neering portion of society. I consider there is a great danger in this, and, so thinking, I ask you to take part in every political movement. PER U. Further Particulars of the Oreat Earth qnnke. The New York Herwd'j correspondent gives tbe latest particulars of the terrible South American earthquake, and especially its d.re effects in Peru, as follows: Scarcely bad a day passed ater the earth quake at Callao. wben tbe steamer from Pisco communicated that that port, tne guano islands, Chlnchabaja, Canete, and lea had been the tbeatre ot mout deplorable events. In this )at-mentioned city the movement of the earth had been so violent tbat It completely over threw more than forty bouses and some churches, all the houses that remained standing being completely ruined. The following are the particulars of the destruction of the above places, and of the destruction in Arica, Are qui pa, Tacna, and eUe where. In lea the earth opened in several places, throwing up torrents of water, and tbe river wbich runs through the town increased con siderably, bearing along wa er mtagled with nt-hes. In Pi-co the sea retired more tnan four hundred yards, and at 10 o'clock a; night re turned with tury, passing its usual limits more than two hundred, and carrying wi.h it every thing it encountered; various stores on tne beach were completely destroyed, and the ruolo very much Injured in its foundations; the losses have been considerable. In Chmchabaja, tne stores lull of goods for loading, tbe offices of the Steam Company, and almost all thy tovn were destroyed by the sea. In the guano islands tbe shock was so strong that no one could remain standing; there, after the shook, the sea remained perfectly quiet, but at halt-pan nine at ' night commenced to retire, and whn distant about seventy yards an immense wave arose, which, falling with irresistible lorce on tbe mole, tore away Irom its foundations about seventy yards of H, causing the inhabitants to give themselves np for lost; the vessels anchjred, at the mercy of the waves, dashed with violence against each other, their aucbors being of no avail, and sutlered considerable damage. Are quipa, tbat was a beautiful city, constructed en tirely of stone, with more tban 60,000 inhabi tants, and that had always been distinguished for the learning and valor ol its sons, was com pletely overthrown by tbe earthquake of the 13tb. Without exaggeration we may say that not one stone has been left upon another. Tbe Eolldity of tbe buildings enabled them to resist the first shocks, and gave time to the inhabitants to escape to tbe streets and squares; but was not sufficient to ariest tbe violence and tenacity of tbe earthquake; not. withstanding the number of persous burled beneath tbe ruins, ascends to 200. In Areqaipa. as In other places, tbe orst shock was succeeded by many others, which continued without interrnption; the neighborhoods or Tiabajaand Sabandia, and all the outlets of the beautiful city, bave shared her lot. Tbe Mistl, a volcano In "whose lsp tbe town was built, opened on the side towards the north, aud thiew forth earth and ashes. The water which tbe luhabitaots used to drink hxs turned black, and of an in supportable taste. The losses at Arica are in calculable. Only in merchandise deposited in the custom-house, there were more than 4,000.000 oi dollars. The deaths amounted to mote than five hundred. Almost the entire city of Iqulque has been swept away by tbe waves. The valuable ur.nes of saltpetre, at Molle, have suffered considerable loss, and Molle Is completely destroyed. Fresh water has tailed. Tbe earthquake lasted five minutes. Tbe sea Increased thirty feet over its ordinary level, and covered the town in an extension ot 6000 leet. Thirty dead bodies were found up to the 14'.h, although it is presumed tbat there are more than 200 dead. The Comercio says that in Tacna thirty or forty houses and tbe alameda were destroyed, the earth opentcg in several places. InStinaaud Locum ba many houes came down, tbe crop ot spirits and wines being lost. Luta valley is ruined. It Is repotted from Palca and la Portadathat immense stones were preclpta'.ed from the hills with an extraordinary noise, kill ing three persons and wounding a few others. The amount of loss between Tacna and Arica is calculated to a value of fourteen millions dol lars. In Moquega 160 persons perished. Tbe port of Cbala is almost ruined, and the Inhabi tants bave had to remove to a distance of eight leagues. A great number of towns In tbe province of Parinacochas have likewise disap peared, and tbe capital itselt has suffered severely. Paracas has been swallowed by the sea.
