WHIGISMIN ARKANSAS.

As some interest is expressed to be inior-
med of the great political changes in this
young sister of the coniederacy, we quote
the following from the St. L. Republican;
"Almost every county on the Mississippi
where Yell, at the last elections had large
maiorities, are against him. In the county
of Washington, too, which at the last cleo
ton gave majority to the Van party of
ll60, has this, only given about 400. Yell
was elected at the last election by about
5000 majority, and at present, his majority
will fall short of a 1000. 1t is true, the vote
was small one, owing to the rain on the
day Of the election, and the wings never en-
tertained a hope Of carrying Ringold, but
it is now quite apparent, that nearly two
thirds of the Van Buren, party have deser-
ted their leaders, and it is also probable, if
the wings had exerted themselves with half
the zeal which their opponents displayed,
they would have carried the State. The
march of revolution is onward aud they
will carry it at the next election"

UNPARALLELED REVOLUTION

THE EMPIRE STATE REDEEMED !!
EIad it been announced, that by an earth
quake the state OF New York had been blot
ted from the earth, it coJld not much moro ex-
cite and astound community, than does the
glorious fact that this great stale has been
completely redeemed by the Wings. So long
and so intimately has il been bound TO the adj
mnistraion--so thoroughly has the party,
which is now defeated, been organizcd-so
many thousands Of oflicehoders, national and
state, have been ranged. with all their power
and influence, against the Whigs-and so i'm
mense was tho Van Buren, majority but one
year since-that victory now, and such vic
tory, seems more like mighty miracle, work
cd by superhuman power, than like the result
OF any possible natural causes. Wondrous as
it is, however, the Whighs have NOBLY
L RI U NJ P HE'D The very city and the
very county in which Mr.. Van Buren, resided
the capital in which he displayed all his
talents-the GREAT STATE, an empire OF
itself, which has been called his own-dH,
ALL, have gone against hint! He has been
tried-tried by his nei shbors, by his friends -
and the verdict is ganst him his measures
are condemned the handwriting is on the
wall, in burning letters Of light, and the " ma
eician' can interpret the decree.
From the returns below, it will be accn tha,
the Wings have carried SIX out Of the
EIGHT Senatorial districts and ,hort EOJTp
FIFTHS of the House of Representatives.
Last year, the Van Burenites exceeded four
fiths, so that the Wings have more than turn
ed the tables. But to the returns, large por-
lion Of which are taken from the Albany Ar
gus, the organ OF the GREAT DEFEATED.
Where we have the votes, we have compared
them with the result last November.
