CAypIpATEs FOR THE Presidency. We
yesterday copied from the New York Tele-
lyr.ph, an enumeration of the names of ten gen.
1Iemen who are spoken Of as candidates for the
Presidency at the next election, with some
comments by that paper, upon their characters
and pretensons-and we recur to the subject
to-day, merely to mention, that one name was
omitted by the Telegraph, which we shall not
be surprised to find brought prominently before
the people Of the United States, for that dis
finqushed station. We mean the name of our
successful and able Minister TO England, the
Hon. Louis McLane. For many years past
Mr.. NcLane has had little or no connection
with the political parties of the country, and
has always been considered moderate man,
conscientiously discharging his duty III every
station in which he has been placed, and going
heart and hand for what he believed to be the
true interests of his country. 1t is generally
believed that he has been the happy instru-
ment of ehecting the settlement Of the Oregon
Question, by which the United States will be
saved from the expenditure of an enormous
amount of money, and the mourning of an one
goas public debt, besides the sacrifice of human
life and of individual property to an incalcula-
BILE amount If he be the author of so many
and great benefits to the people, by his wisdom
and prudence, we think it likely that they will
not fail to remember his valuable and dstin-
ruished services when the time shall have ar
rived for recomponsing them. We say thus
much of Mr.. McLane, in justice to his merits,
and not from any desire or intention to enlist
in the Presidential campaign.

PAREDEs. 1t is now said, that Paroles has
engaged in the war against this country in
earnest; and that he has marched from Mexico
with seven thousand mon, TO meet and OUer-
'ohctm General Taylor's army. 1t is very like
y that he has left Mexico with what troops he
was able to collect but we doubt whether he
will take the road which would lead him to
General Taylor. 1t is more likely that he is
seeking safety for himself; and that the force
with which he has marched is to enable him to
effect some compromise with whoever may be-
come his successor, by the revolution which
appears to be at hand, He may, perhaps,
change places with Santa Anna; and we doubt
not that he would consider it more safe and
amusing to be fighting chickens at Havana,
than to remain at the Mexican capitol during
the approaching storm, or to encounter Gen.
Taylor'S army.
