 RsgiMentaE Reuisucs -The reviews of the different Regiments composing the 9th Brigade accomplishing most of Ltch6eld county--were held last week. We had not the opportunity of attending any ofthem ex- eept in this town. The 18th regiment, we thought, appeared better than we have known it for many years. Most of the companies were in uniform, had thene guns furnished by the State, and made quite . martial appearance. The inspection was conductr ed as it should bet was close and thorough did the Inspector tPheps exhibit any of that frothy de- clamation which distinguished his immediate prede- cessor, but proceeded to his work like man deter mined to do his duty only We should have been bet ter pleased, however. if Gen. Phelps instead of going Hartford county for Inspector had selected some gentleman from his own Brigade for this duty.

 From tke PorsLand Adurtiser.
 Not only is 1t now plain that that great majority is entirely annhilated, but the whig gain, at this one heat. may be probably estimated to be THOUSAND VOTES!
 Such change as this in public sentiment, as it were all at once, is wholly unexampled among us- And when we look back to the difficulty be over come in order to reduce such fixed and prodgiousp majority, We might almost wonder that the hope should late exertion. : os3 @4
