MOVEMENT OF GEN. TAYLOR ON Mon
TEnEY.-The proposed movement of Cen
eral Taylor upon Monterey, says the New
Orleans Picayune, is we'll known in all
parts Of Mexico. Letters from Monterey
represent that the inhabitants of that city
were much alarmed at the prospect, as they
possessed very slight means of Defence
All the accounts represent that the Army
of the North, formerly under Arista, but at
present under Mejia, was concentrated at
Linares to the number of 1000. A paper
from the city of Mexico devotes labored
article to prove that it cannot be the inten-
ton Of Gen. Taylor to penetrate to Monter-
ey directly, leaving this force to operate
upon his flank and rear. 1t considers the
command of Mejia quite sufficient, consider
ing the strength of Linares and the natural
difficulties Of the country, to hold Gen.
Taylor in check, or to keep him upon the
march, SO that ample time will be afforded
to take up second and more solid line of
defence.

Benefits of Tax Law to The Farmers.

BenentS OF the lax Law to The Farmers.
The Tax-Law-Whigs have been busy as
nailers in attempting to misrepresent the
effects of the tax law upon the agricultural
and Industrious portion of community by
showing that o vast amount of personal
property, money at interest, pianos, &C.,
have been brought upon the list for taxa
ton, and at the same time representing that
the amount of tax levied upon this personal
property would be SO much relief to the
land holders and those who have heretofore
paid taxes. 1t is by the means Of such de.
ceptions and by an effort to conceal the
real operations Of their measures that thew
have always expected to succeed. But
they have not only attempted to conceal
the real operations Of the law itself and to
delude the people into the support Of and
its authors, but they have been constant in
their misrepresentation Of those who on
pose the law. They herald it forth to the
world that they have passed law by which
money at interest and the articles of luxu.
ry Of the rich are taxed and ask the people
to infer that because the democracy are op-
posed to the law, that therefore they are
opposed to taxing money at interest and

foreign to the Anti.Slavery cause, Abo.
litionism cannot be introduced into either ol
them, as prominent feature, without such
q radical change as must necessarily work
the destruction Of the parties.
Resolved, 2. That we are taught by all
past experience, that no one leading politi.
cal question can be permanently settled
while it is trameled by half dozen minor
ones, and therefore it is the duty of all tc
take that question which is the most i'm
portant and make it the issue until it is fl.
nally settled.
Resolved, 8. That we deem the sustain
ing of the Liberty Party, as the only eff
cient means left the friends of the Slave
whereby they can repeal the odious black
laws Of Ohio, or bring about the final aboli-
ton of Slavery.
Resolved, A. That we repudiate in strong.

Sir: The U. $. frigate Raritan, Com.
Gregory, arrived here yesterday from Vera

The Vera Cruz papers Of the 18th and

They remind the Mexicans Of the manner
in which the French were driven out of
Spain afser Madrid and the cities Of the
country %ere in possession Of the enemy.
This was done by guerilla warfare.
Paredes had not left'the city of Mexico.
II was found impossible to raise body of
5000 to follow him.
1t is the opinion of all well informed
persons that there is nothing to prevent
General Taylor's marching directly to the
CITY of Mexico. There are no troops to
oppose him.
Gen. SCOTS ideas Of the rainy season
have caused much mirth among those resid-
