LE9 I ISLATURE.—There appears to
exist a singular uncertaifily, - as to the polit
ical'complexion of the Legislature of this .
State. The Whigs claim.a majority of 21
on joint ballot, While the Loco Focos claim
from two tofive. The American Sentinel,
however, which is a Porter paper, concedes
that the Virhigs-yill have a majority of one,
on joint ballot, Ono majority is as good as
twenty-one for the Whigs'. for they have
never been known to •desert theit princi
ples; but if the Loco Focos have .a majori
ty of ouly.five, they cannot count with - ant
certainty upon a majority at all; for if the
Loco Focos hive not changed 'their nature
of late, Old Nick will buy up a score br Ivro
