Requiescat in pace. "The following monody, from the Boston Atlas of yesterday morning, is all we have of Maine. Peace to her ashes. If she loves Locofocoism it is well that she is covered with it, five fathom deep."

THE MAINE ELECTION.

The Locofocos have carried Maine by a decisive majority, perhaps five thousand. Waldo gives Fairfield 2600 majority, Oxford 2200, and Penobscot 800. Hancock was nearly balanced in ten towns. Evans and Randall are elected to Congress.

Tuesday Evening, Sept. 11. 8 1-2 o'clock,

LATER RETURNS.

DECISIVE OF THE RESULT!

We give below returns from Penobscot, Waldo, Somerset, Lincoln, &c. which make it certain that John Fairfield is elected Governor of the State of Maine by a very large majority. Oxford has gone against us by an overwhelming majority, and we have been as badly if not as fairly defeated as ever a party was.

The following is the state of the vote in Maine, as far as ascertained:—

30,322 33,246 25,103 24,989

Hancock, 10 towns, 1,171 1,210

31,493 34,456

For Member of Congress in Cumberland, the votes, as stated by the Portland Courier, are for Judge Whitman, (Whig) 5622; Smith, 5711; scattering 71, making a majority for Smith, of 18 votes.

It is not improbable that there may be enough scattering votes not returned, to prevent a choice.-

The Senatorial election is nearly as close—three of the four Van Buren candidates being probably chosen.

Both branches of the Legislature are probably Van Buren.

Extract from the Portland Advertiser of Monday

addressed To the Whigs and the Whig Presses out of Maine :-

A word of Caution.—Remember that there is no knowing who is governor until after election.

Remember that Maine has a seaboard stretching along a coast of hundreds of miles, far greater in extent than the sea coast of any other State in the Union. All along this coast there are a body of public officers in the employ and pay of the General Government.—all eager to sustain the National Administration,—to elect John Fairfield, the Locofoco members of Congress, &c.

Remember the importance of the election and the means used to have the State in all its branches support the administration. A governor, eight members of Congress, and members of both branches of the Legislature are to be chosen, and the Legislature will choose a United States Senator in place of Ruel Williams, whose term of office expires on the 4th of March. . Remember that in like proportion to the importance of the election have been the means used by the Government office holders, to secure the State to the Administration.

The exertions of the administration party have been unparalleled. Money has been collected from all quarters of the Union thus side of the Potomac, and expended, too, with a liberal and an unsparing hand. The administration has done every thing that could be done to sustain itself.—and if it is not sustained, it will be because the free, intelligent, and unbought and unbuyable freemen of Maine are stronger than the supporters of the administration, even though aided by, the Executive, the National Treasury, and the liberal contributions of a host of the salaried friends of the administration in different sections of the Union.

Whigs of the United States,—remember with whom, and with what, we have to contend. Be assured we have done our duty and our whole duty.— If we are conquered, it will not be because we have not done our duty to ourselves, to you, and to our country. Make no calculations upon the result of the election. Wait until the result is known. If we conquer now, we conquer again. If we are defeated, we shall not be discouraged, but on the morrow raise our banner as high as we have ever raised it before, and fight as earnestly and as valiantly as we have ever fought before. Principles, Liberty, Laws, Peace Union—we are contending for, and as long as God gives us the liberty of speech, the freedom of thought. and the freedom of the Press, we shall never grow weary in well doing.
