It's not entirely clear to me what you mean by "the graph." Don't you
have one graph per interface? Depending on how it's configured, I'd
expect to see one graph for each interface connected to a T-1 and
another graph for the interface attached to your LAN. Have you updated
your MRTG config since you added the new T-1?

The traffic through any individual interface will depend on how your
Internet router is configured, etc. It's entirely possible to have two
T-1's attached to your router and have all the traffic go out through
only one of them (which probably isn't what you want). MRTG should
hopefully show you if traffic is evenly distributed across the T-1's or
not.
