Excitement in Maine Over the Result of the Election. , Augusta, M.t November 18. The ex citement over the rumored counting oat of the Republican Legislature runs high. A number of prominent Republicans are in the city. Tc Governor and Council assembled in the S ate House at 4 p. m. Tue Governor this afternoon informed a committee that the returns would not be considered open, in the sense allowing an, amendmeui i; redirection nnder the statute until the Committee of Council on Elections reports the result of the can vass lo the Governor and Cocncil, and there would be twenty days from that lime for any legal correction. Changes of the returns on technic grounds are rumored, which would give the Democrats and Greebackers nine- teen Senators, and the Republicans twelve. The vote as cast gives the Republicans nineteen, and all the others twelve. Indian News. Dbnvke, November 18. A Los Pinos dispatch of the 15th says : Ouray's power to day is trembling in the balance, and within a few days we shall witness the final success on his part in establishing his absolute authority over the tribe, or his virtual dethronement and ascendancy of the war faction. " He has succeeded In exacting from the hostiles a promise to'ap- pear, but as to giving testimony and all further proceedings they decide for them selves. Sower waick testified, but he lied from the beginning to the end. General Adams having put the question, "Was I ever in your h-mse on the Grand Kiver? he answered. "No. Sowerwaick was then discharged and Adams mado the fol lowing speech to Oaray : The last answer was not true. I did slop in Sowerwaick's tent and there we had a council from 11 o'clock until six in the morning., Sow erwaick was present and with others was fullv coenizant of what was being done, and to day he comes here and says he does not know anything. ... JTor that reason I believe he has not spoken the truth, nor does he wish to speak the truth. I believe also that none of them wish to speak the truth, and "therefore it is almost unnecessary to go any further. . They have refused to mention the name of a single Indian while they well know the names of all of them. I now present the situation to you so that you can recommend some other course whereby we may execute the laws of the government. The government wants us to ascertain who were engaged in the difficulties at White River; we want the names of the guilty parties, and if you think we cannot find out who they were we had better go home. Ouray replied : I cannot force them to say what they do not wish. I brought them here that they might speak for them selves. He afterwards added : . Show me any act of law by which a man may be compelled to convict himself. Ourav afterward acknowledged he was afraid of assassination. Midnight Mepori Marine Disasters. London. November 18.

Breadstuff's. , (From the N. Y. Unsocial Chronicle, Nov. 14.) There was a dull and drooping market for wheat and uxht during -moat of the past week and prices have gived-way ma tenally. Yesterday, however, there was some recovery, with sales of large lines of common extras at 35.40 on the spot and $5.50 for January .delivery. Rye flour has also declined, but corn meal remains firm. . To-day the demand, for . wheal flour was active at firm prices, with occasion ally more money paid.. The wheat market has been depressed, and sales were made early in the week as low as $1 351.37 for tne leading gtades of winter growth, on the spot and for No vember delivery. Speculation was checked early in the week by the small ness of the regular demand, the steadiness with which receipts were maintained, and the rapid accumulation of stocks ; but these it flu encea wereronly.ttemporary jn iheir effect against the ail-pervading spirit of specula tion. Indian corn has varied but little.-' The speculation for the rise has been compara tively dormant, and yet no important ae cane in values can be quoted- . 1 he crop is now regarded as not po good as last year, from various ea rises being deficient in quality if not in quantitywhile there can be no doubt that the wants of the South are greater than for several years past, and the higher prices of cotton give that section increased ability to supply its needs.

The Xtegolatlon of Icebergs Whenever any disaster happens to an r ocean steamer, suggestions for the preven tion ox any iartner disasters or the same sort become as plentiful as blackberries when the market is full of thrm. The collision between the Arizona and aa ice berg has induced the public to remark with immense unanimity that all steamers ought to be compelled to carry electnc lights, which, - it is assumed would do away with - the danger of collision. In fact, so strongly: is ' this suggestion onred that there is dasger 4hat some steam ship company, more anxious to-' please the pub lic than to avoid danger, may adopt the eiectric ngnt, tn 'spite or the fact it is rather worse t Bea. than no light what-, ever." While there is 'no question about the power of the electric light, experience i j;nas snowa that when used at sea, it in- creaehe-very dangers 'against which it is supposed to be a protection. Its excess sive glare renders tbe lights ' of other ves sels invisible, deepens by contrast the darkness m every direction except imme diately in front of the reflector, and dazzles the eyes so that- vessels or ice bergs that id other circumstances would be easily seen are invisible until it is too late to avoid them. The English govern-, ment placed an electric tight in the Dunge ness light house. On the coast of the Bri-f tish Channel, bat were compelled to re move it because of tbe greatly increased number of collisions' which occurred in consequence of the' blinding glare of the iigbt. , aq electric light is atul In usei at tbe Lizard Point, further down the Chan, nel, and 1 the steamer captains who pass near it complain so loudly of the difficulty while in the glare of the light that tbe gov. em ment will soon remove it- The French line of trans Atlantic steamers gave-the electric light a thorough trial soma years since, . and' only discarded: it when its worse than uselessness was proved.: ; - As to cO'lision with icebergs: the trouble is not so much with the ship-as with the iceberg, it is tbe latter which is at fault. tod which needs to be severely dealt with. Ihe ship carries a light, sounds a -whistle r a horn, and, usually, keeps a bright lookout. The iceberg takes none of these precautions, but thrusts itself in 4he path of vessels with a stnpid recklessness which cannot be too severely condemned. ' - The captain of one of tbe white Star steamers,; who was reported tbe other day to have said that it would be a good plan to an chor a si earn -tug near every ice-berg. that the whistle might give warniag to ap proaching vessels, evidently saw that tbe blame of collision rests with the icebergs, and not with the ships which ran' into them : This plan, however, is not alto gether perfect, Bince it requires an im mense consumption of steam -togs. What is needed is that every iceberg should carry a bright light at night, and should be compelled to sound a -whistle or fog horn in thick weather. It will not do for obl3ctors to remark that this scheme is impracticable. Al most the en; ire West believes that Con gress caa create wealth out of nothing, by pissing a liw nqnrtog tue unlimited printing and issuing of paper dollars. The great majority of our workmen believe thrtt the Siate Legislatures can make eight oglm precisely as long as ten hours -by ptssiog what is popularly calted --tL "Eight -hour law." Perhaps a large ma jority of the American people believe that Congress can mase tne country rich and prosperous by compelling everybody to nay $2 instead or $l for clothing, fuel. aud almost all manufactured articles. If these things can be accomplished 'by law. surely icebergs can be compelled to carry ligbtBand rog-norns Dy law.- 'How the lights snail be trimmed and tne horns sounded are mere matters of detail. It is surely quite as easy to force icebergs to take precautions against collision as it is to make people neb and prosperous by un limited greenbacks, indiscriminate "pro tection," and eight-hour laws. If the Greenback-Labor party wishes a new plank for its . platform, the regulation of icebergs, as well as railways, oy law, is lust the thing. Is it tolerable 'that these bloated monsters or unreeling ice snouio sink ships laden 'with intelligent immi grants?. Let this question be properly put before the people, and tbe entire Green back-Labor party will vote unanimously to compel icebergs to carry lights and fog horns;' ' - , ' Possibly, another plan, suggested by the same captain already mentioned, may be viewed with favor by practical men. He suggested that men of war might be sent out to cannonade icebergs and knock them to pieces. A better plan would be to melt the Ice. This might be done either by playing on tbe icebergs with a hot-water fire engine, or by surrounding them with a circle of floating and blaz:ng petroleum. Or steam -tugs might be employed to tow all icebergs that venture in the track of traos-Atlantics down into the Gulf stream, where they would soon melt and vanish. Ttere is yet another method which ought not to be ever looked. Steam-tugs might be kept cruising just north of the banks. with instructions to arrest all vagrant ice bergs, and to tow them to a safe and out- of-the-way ancbotage. If all the wander ing icebergs were to be thus corraled. tbe danger of collision with ice would be ended. ' Surely, with such a wide choice of different methods,' measures ought to be taken to render a repetition of the Arizona collision impossible. Tbixvcs at a Wxddimo Party.

ISELANO'S SAD CONDITION. Mr. Peter oxeary's ideas of the Existing St Ate Affairs. 2 ' J (From tne New York Star On Saturday afternoon Mf.1 ' Peter O'Leary. the well known Canadian," Ameri can and European traveler, arrived in New York. .' . ' ; "Have vou been in urelandlacently?' "Yes : during the last threfrnonths 4 1 have traveled muchin ; lhaf-"puntryf in that time I have been on foot through the wnoie or tne soutn ana sournwest, which would include from the "mui h of the Shannon to the Old Head of K?nsale." 1 ! "Are the reports we receive In America of an impending famine in Ireland well founded?" : - r Unfortonately they are well founded. or if there be any dlscrepinitiaiitr ? it is tnat things are worsa than tley are de scribed to be."- . i-' - -fiil "Do you mean to imply that there is actual famine in the country ?" "Well, perhaps, many have not died of actual, hunger; buC I do Bay that the work houses are crowned that the clergy, par ticularly the Catholic priest, are making earnest appeal for govern ment aid to keep people from starving, and that this aid is not likely to be granted; at all events in sufficient time to be of much good." ' vvnat do yo regard as the-causes which have led 1 to1 this tad condition of affairs ?" ' Many causes have conspired to this end. , In the first place, . Ireland is con fessedly the poorest country in Europe, though forming, much against her will, an integral portion of the prosperous. British Empire. Secondly, through the immense shipments of brr ad stuffs and the butcher meats from the United States and Canada, and the great development of trans At lan - tio commerce . in many ways, the Irish farmer, for the last three years, .has been Undersold in his - own market, and of course every interest suffers with the agri cultural.. . Thirdly, there have been three bad seasons for crops in. succession, and the last was the worst of all " "Do you believe in a- peasant proprie tary, as advocated by Mr. Parnell ?" 4 1 believe in at, and 1 .approve of it with all my heart, an d would work for, it with all my strength., I have seen its ad vantages in ranee, and in Ireland on the farms purchased by the tenants under the Church Disestablishment Act. .But in an interview ,of, this kind I dou't care about discussing poluics, fearful that I should be in any wav mis uudei stood. H owever, 1 may say just this; in my opinion there are two things needful in Irelaud, n&mely. self eovernniirnt ard ihe land for the peo ple." 'Among what class is there the most destitution?"' "Well, all classes suffer in the general impoverunment; but the poorest I would say are the farm laborers ar.d small far tnerf: because for tbe laborer there is no work of any kind; and for thp little farmer bad seasons, low prices and heavy rents have brought numbers of tbetu down to absolute pauperism." "This is a terrible slate ol things if true in all pariicuUrs." A true as the Gospel, sir. In fact, I cannot linJ words lo depict the misery I have witnessed. I should not wish to witu ness it or a.liie of it a?ain. ,Aad -with the winter CoUi.- Wit-tU intensified tenfold." w "What is the s'aple food on which the poor people subsist ?" Ireland is a neaitny couniry, ana tne Irish a robust rece consequently; tbe mass of tbe people have never been accustomed to dainties. . Milk, butter, potatoes, oat cake or wbeaten bread and once or twice a wet k a piece of butchers meat have been in years gone by the general diet; but this . . i . i . . . year tne potatoes are nearly au macs wuu the blight; tbe cattle are sold' off to pay rents or other indebtedness, and tbe result is no meat, no milk, no butter, and what is still worse no money to purchase from foreign supplies among a very large section of the helpless people." "What then, do they live on ? "During the . summer yellow meal what you will understand as your Indian corn meal was very cheap, lef s than a penuy, or two cents a pound, and among the peasantry tnts was tne one staple article of food; but now, on account of the increased demand within the last five or six weeks, it has risen six shillings, or 1.50 on the hundred weight, and this to thousands, unless immediately assisted, means death by hunger." "Are there any steps, being taken in Ireland and England to meet this terrible emergency?" Well, yes, in a degree, and I am happy to say that l think with some success. Sister Mary Cusack. better known to the literary world as " J he Nun ot Kenmare, has in that town organized a reuei , com mittee of which she is the head; and to her countrymen and co religionists all over the world she .has made a broad aod earnest appeal to aid her in her holy and humane work. r When I was in Kenmare, leas than a month ago, I called on her. She received me most kindly, and with tears in her eves j she told me of the tngniiui Buuenngs oi toe pour peupic tur miles ardvind." 6 The convent schools are attended by over 200 children of both sexeSi and .as I accompanied the good Sister through the rooms I was struck by the . wan, . pale, ' pibchedap faces and the general weakly, appearance or the pupus, and these tmngs tne nuns in cnarge attri bute unhesitatingly to a want of food, fuel and clothing "Fuel ? I thought peat was very abun dant In Ireland, and surely that makes a good fire." "So it does. But this year it is impos sible to cut the tnrf owing to the submer sion of the bog lands. Where cut, in few instances, it could not be saved or dried because of tbe almost incessant rains. As a consequence in Uhe- coming -winter tbe want of fuel win oe ten nearly as much as the want of food." What, Mr. O'Leary,- in your opinion should be done to arrest tbe horrors of ab solute famine in Ireland T' . "Of course, you mean by absolute famine the hnnger deaths and the coffin- less graves of thirty years ago. v Well, if the government opened pudiic works, re lief would be given to large numbers; but there would s'ill be thousands to whom public works would be of little service. Editor Smith, of the Cincinnati Gazette. telegraphs to his paper from Chicago that he la certain Gen. Grant will not allow bis name to go before the convention; except as its unanimous cnoice. ana tnat even in 1 that case. he would express his firm pur- d se not to serve for more than one term.
