CHUSeA-tDOuRn probabilities we think are in favor of the former. In the first district White (whig> is chosen by 2o45 ma j"r:y. Last election 9l9 In the second district, Morgan (loco) is chosen by l3 majority. Taking the aggregate, the whig majority in the State will be at least 2Ooo This, in a vote of only about l3O00 would be equal to about 5000 in Connecticut or 5000 in New-York. Is any hody silly enough to believe that such majority could be overcome in Connecticut in the short space of four months As little likelihood we believe will it be in Louisana-therefore we claim her five votes certnin for Harrsou which at the last election were given to Van Buren,
 The Legislature is important also. as it chooses Senator to Congress in place of MT. Nicholas This is undoubtedly whig-as from the akeady received returns they have majority joint ballot of at least 6-2 in Senate, and 4 in the House. So tha. whether the two parishes yet 10 hear from be whig or toy the result will not be altered
 There is ono circumstance about the New-Orleans elec,on which strikes all parties with anna zement- The voting closed on the 8th and the canvass did not commence till the next day Each party had the whole number votes, and made their separate est- mates of the result The whies believed they had about 600 majprity-(400 more than ever before!-the locos did not allow over 2o0 and were in high hopes

Whcn the final result was announced-1l19 whie maiority-the we!kin rung with the plaudits of the wings, and the locos sneuked of. What could it mean? Why, says one loco, and that explained the whole matter, hundreds whom had counted upon for us, have silently cast their votes for the whig candidates, and for change of rulers. And this will be the effect throughout the country.
 |" STATE EAGLE."-Most of our readers probably are aware that for the last six eight months there has existed an administrations paper at Hartford by the above title. It has been conducted with an ability candor and fairness in very striking contrast with the Times, Register and most of the other rabd loco loco papers of this State-and hence we have been apprehensive that it might have an influence upon some of the whg party which we knew the others could not-for their violence their utter disregard to the courtesies of life. and their rechiessnsss ard dis regard of lhe truth reer them such objects of abhor to thinking and reAec,ing minds that no, dan ger to be apprehended from them. But it seems that the Ssae Eagle could not pursue this courte- and manly course and continue to support the VI therefore the past week pulled down the pirate flag of loco focoism-it erased from it's caption the names of Martin Tan Burcn and Rirhard M. Johnson, and is determined hereafter to oppose their re-elecon.- What the effect cupon itse!f will be- we pretend not to coniecture-it will doubtless draw down upon it the vengeance of many of inc party, but whether suf fcient to sink it, little time will determine The following few of the which its editor, J. ilolbrook, gives for the change :-
 "Those who have been accustomed 10 look into our paper from week to week, will doubt once discover that the names of MARTIN VAN BUREN, and RICHARD M. JOHNSON, no longer Occupy a conspicu place in our columns.

Blu, we have been kept from a free and public express ion of Ghsnpprohation, through fear of endangering reputation for sahi- lty and irmness in politica sentiment. We boldly assert, that there are hundreds, may say thou sands in this sta'e whose honest feelings have been smothered in similar manner. from unwilling encounter the Recommendations of men who take II upon themselves 10 establish their o"n party stand ards and tests, and then assn those who do not re- coenze their right to sit m judgment over the motives Ot their fellow men, twaddlCrs and traitors. 9th.
