At half past 3 o'clock this morning, we re ceiyed our Special Horse Express from New.Ha? ven (run through for us in six hours by Mr Enoch Ward of that City) upon the arrival of our Express Locomotive from Hartford. We had farther arranged an Express Locomotive down the Housatonic, which has failed, leaving us mi? nus the doubtftd Danbury Senate District in Fair field and the equally doubtful New Milford Dis? trict in Litchfield.

from Tolland, however, we have more and better than we expected, through the zeal of our able correspondent at Hartford. Our returns are not sufficient to clear the Stale of doubt, but on the whole they look well. New. Haven County has not done all that was ex? pected of her, but Hartford has done nobly, and Fairfield gives some 400 Whig majority. What we have from Tolland is capital, and augurs well for the entire East.

On the whole, we have very strong hopes that the State has gone Whig, but will not shout yet. We have made a trjunof two Senators and some twelve Representatives so far, and hope the Legislature is right. Full returns on the arrival of the boat to-day when ours will reach us carefrlly made up on the passage by a most competent friend, and will be issued immediately. far) 12 Whigs, 8 Locos North Branford Whig; Waterbury I Whig 1 no choice.

They have chosen to wait till after the smoke of our local contest has cleared away, when they will go to work in brave earnest for the Cause and the Man, but meantime they will do good service off-hand at the Polls next week. We believe no such array of towering names has ever before been presented to our citizens for a public gather irig, and we are authorized to state that all the speakers announced will be here.

We only wish there were a hall large enough to contain those who would wish to be of1 the audience. Hatciilii?

It is shame that the Loco-Foco organ should go or; cackling and correcting and never hatching any thing, as he has done lately, especially in the Connecticut business. Even when two Chick-a bidies of his feather came out, they were by his own kin in Connecticut, who clamorously pronounced them spurious! It is an ill brood that forswears its own this why.

Barry's majority was 52. late Charter Election, three weeks ago, Mayo; Williams's majority was also 52! Thest were indeed heavy odds, backed as they were bv the entire State and Federal patronage; but they all vanished before the invincibli Whigarray. Theag gregatc vote is the largest ever cast in the Ward. Eustache Chapoton, the Whig candidate, is now elei led by a majority of forty-seven. But this was no mere Ward Election in effect.

The whole City was the prize of victory. It was so was was so on. The Char? ter Election was a draw game. The Whigs secured three Aldermen, and the Loco-Focos the Mayor and two Aldermen. The Third Ward held the balance, and she has now given it to the Whigs.

detroit is Redeemed But even this is not all. The Collector and the Custom-House were in the field, and were defeated. Col. Brooks had signalized his open adhesion to Van Buren Loco-Focoism at the City Hall meeting, the nitrhi before, in the most vaunting promises of aid and support. The strength of allies was now to he tested.

The Senate in Committee of the Whole, Mr. Chamberlain in the chair, resumed the considera? tion of the hill to incorporate, the Kinjrs County Medical Insurance company, and passed the same with amendments.

In the Assembly, the bills to renew the charier of the N. Y.

Boston Mercantile Journal. mh27 iteod New-York and F.rle Railroad. For two yearn past New-York and Eric Railroad has afforded and daily com municalion with tlie Counties of Rockiand and Orange, which have furnished us a constant sup? ply of milk of the purest and richest quality, at a price one-third less than was paid forthat article before the opening of the road. During the winter months, and early in the spring, these counties have also supplied us with fresh pork, veal, veni? son, jwultrv, in such quantities as to diminish very materially their cost.

Such being the beneficial results of a road only 53 miles in length, what may we not naturally ex? pect will be the effect upon the markets of this city, when the road shall traverse the whole length of our State, passing through a section of it which as a grazing country is unequalled in productive? ness, and which will he able to furnish us with daily supplies of the necessaries of life equal to the whole consumption of our City I There is no Northern City upon the sca-hoard the markets of which are so poorly supplied and wherein the prices arc higher than in our Millions of dollars arc paid annually by all classes of our citizens which might be saved by the judi? cious investment of a sum which would be noth? ing in propo. to our population and means. The only method of lessening our expenses of liv? ing is to obtain additional supplies from pastures, farm-yards, and dairies of that Southern section of our State which is now inaccessible; and yet with such a conviction staring us in the face, scarcely any interest is evinced in the only pro? ject that can remedy the completion of the New-York and Eric Railroad. The construction of tiie road from Albany to Boston has cut off from us a large quantity of our supplies. Three Counties alone lying immediately north of Albany, before that road was built, sent us yearly from 20 to 30,000 barrels of pork.

During the last year we received from the same source only 1,000 barrels. That which would have sup? plied the remainder was sent to Boston cither alive or fresh killed. Such a diversion of our former supplies ailecls injuriously not only our retail market but also our packers, our coopers and all other interests connected with the provi? sion business. the New-York and Eric Railroad extended only 50 or 100 miles farther into the interior of the State, the beneficial effects of such an extension would be visible at once; our markets would then groan with the products of Counties which arc now of no benefit (,, us from the want of commu? nication with It is to be hoped that the Directors of this Rail? road Company will soon he prepared with their subscription lists. We wish to see the question as to Ute construction of this work put to the lest without farther delay.

In comparison with the benefits that must arise from it, its cost is no consideration whatever. We say then let ihe books he opened at once.

Delegates Baltimore? In answer to many inquiries which have reached us as to the cost of transportation hence to Baltimore to uttonil the great gnthoring of Whig Yovsa Men on Thursday, 2d, we arc compelled to state that thcNew-JerseyRailroad Co. have declined to reduce their prices for that occa? sion, saying they will have as many as they can carry any how.

The Railroad from Philadelphia to Baltimore have agreed, we understand, to give tickets which secure a passage each way for (Usual charge $8.) But an arrangement has been made here by which a stanch and safe Steamboat will leave this City on Monday after? noon for Baltimore, taking -100 passengers round, boarding and lodging them during the entire pas? sage and while at Baltimore, and returning them at a cost of 10 for the whole trip. This is much cheaper than the journey can be made in any way, and if the weather be fair, will be pleasanter also. The boat is to reach Baltimore on Wednes? day morning. Those who wish to secure berths by this conveyance should write to some friend in this City to do the needful for them. We pre? sume more good boats can be started if more are required.

Elevenpence gentleman lately re? turned from England states that the effects of the Penny Postage System (now in successful opera? tion throughout Great Britain) upon the intellec? tual, moral and social habits of the lower classes, arc truly astonishing, as well as cheering; that hundreds of thousands are learning to write, for the sake of corresponding with their friends. The effect of reducing postage from shilling to a penny, in increasing the number of letters, is well told in the anecdote of an Irishman, writing to his son in London, Remember, my dear boy, not to forget to write often, for every letter saves me elevenpence This, be it remembered, how? ever, is not mere anecdote: for the number of letters has actually increased by many millions and as the result, for several years past the Brit? ish Mail, carrying letters at the uniform rate of a penny, and newspapers for nothing, has cleared, over all expense, about three millions of dollars annually reference to the card ofPeaiVa Museum it will be perceived that the manager has returned I from England, and has brought with him a Lapland Dwarf as old us Tom Thumb and three inches shor? ter. We hope he will meet with that encourage? ment which he so justly deserves, as he appears de? termined that he will not be surpassed by any per? son in his efforts to please die public, as his going to Europe to procure a dwarf more diminutive than Tom Thumb clearly evinces. We hear that the Laplander proposes appearing before the public to? morrow. citizens of Milford, Mass.

held a meeting on the 25th to protest against the Annexation of Texas. They passed some very savage resolutions, having a decidedly Nullifying aspect. There is no occasion for all this passion. Texas will not be annexed to the Union while she remains at war with Mexico and tolerates Human Slavery, if she ever much we consider set? we think it unwise and wrong to make the absurd attempt of Tylerism a pretext for fo? menting ill-feeling between the North and the South. When the South demands Annexation, it will be time enough to bristle up' in this quarter; at present, all the sound, discreet States? men, with the ablest journals, of that section unite in condemning the project.
