Queer Argument. The Hartford Times, in an arti- ce attempting to account for inc defeat of the Van Buren party in New-York says:
 "The result of the New-York election, which has terminated in the of the federal whigl ticket in very large majority of the counties, has come up- On unexpectedly, but we are by no means surprls- ed at it. |
 "Come unexpectedly" and yet "not surprised"! Good It continues
 "A lesson of instruction is practically taught in lhis result which will 1t cannot he doubted be attended with the most beneficial consequences.
 Good again! No man in his sober senses doubts that the prostration of Van Rurensm in the native State of the President twill have the most beneficial consequences" It will have tendency to restore confidence between man and man--it will have tendency to raise the value of real estate, and give confidence in the stability ofther monied institutions it will have a tendency to put in requisiion the sources of that great State towards the completion of the various important works which have been com menced butare suspendedby the bursting of the great humbug which was "put in motion" by the late Pres ident, and continued by his successorit will have tendency to give employment to the hundreds & thou sands oi poor people who have been thrown out of ness by the government tamperng with and destroy ing the currency-it will place in power set ot men who will legisate for the good of tie whole country n stead ofthe few ofice-hoders who a.tening upon "the spois"-it will in shot-bu we leave the read CT to fill out the article with enumeration in his own mind of the many benefits that must necessarily fall the lot ofa people who have just thrown off the yoke of political incubus which was preying upon their vitals. Every man must feel that the people will breath easier and feer in consequence of the political regeneration ct that great and mighty Empire.
 
 More HGl! Old Danbury, (where our readers may recoect the people last spring had three trials before they could make choice of their second Representa- tive, and who, when elected, was finally dsplacedby the tory legislature 10 make way for Van Burenite held her annual meeting for tie choice s town officers on Monday week. Both parties hsd for some time been: making active preparations for the conest.- The result sas that on the first ballot the whigs had majority of IF, which was increased on every sub. sequent balIotng, tI reached to upwards of 200!
 HarVotd Cosyenhon We learn that the loco.foco patriots of Hartford County, to the number of sixty seventy. got together last Thursday at what they called Convention; but more sorry time than they had probably never experienced by my set of forlorn creatures. They organized, however, by the appointment of the usual number of offcers addressed by about the usual number of office hOlders (to wit, Niles, T0ucey, Mitchell, &c.) and passed a. bout the customary number of resolutiensfor all of which, our readers are referred to the last Times probably they will never see them any where else.- Following so immediately upon the heel fthe New York election. sach an assembsge of long faces was probably never seen gathered together before. We happened tOhaye aeonveEsation with one of the mem. bers who was present. and he informed us that though it appeared well enough speeches and resolutions talk confidently of the success of their cause, ye. in their private eotereshey had very litte hone of cay ing the state next spring Connecticus must inc vitably. if the whgs made any thing ofa rally, follow ir the wake of Maine, New-York, and other states which have recently held their elections.
