General TaVIor.

We find, in the papers, two letters from General TAYLOR.
both OF them dated at Camargo, on the 18th Of August,
IN reference to the connection OF his name with the Presi-
dency.
one is addressed to George Folsom. Esq. OF N. York,
the chairman OF the meeting held in that city on the 10th
of July last, at which resolutions were adopted expressive
OF its appreciation OF the recent services Of the Army of
Occupation. After expressing gratitude. for this express
sion Of appreciation, IN the name OF himself and his asso-
ciates, Gen. Taylor refers to the proposition made a, tina,
meeting, but judiciously reinquisheJ, TO nominate him for
the next Presidency, in the following terms:
"For your very complimentary note, my personal thanks
are also due. Permit me TO say III a source Of graduation
TO me, tina. the meeting RETAINED from the nedtatsd pomi,

The Government has assigned to me an arduous and re-
sponsible duty, in the prosecution Of the existing war; in
conducting 1t with honor TO the country, lie all my real as.
piHtons."
The second letter is addressed to D. NJ. lettering. ESQ.
Of Phiadelphis, who informed Gen. Taylor that at a meet
ing held in that city in July last, ho had been nominated
for the Presidency, and expressing the hope, that, like Gee.
~Jsckson, he would "nei'her seek nor decline" the elevated
station. After returning thanks for the favorable opinion
ofhis c~ouniymcn, Gen. Taylor adds:
MY feelings impel me to say, however, that do not de-
letter finds me no aspirani for that office, and the agitation
Of such a question, in my present responsible position, il
yet more q cause OF serious regret, as tending to embaras

As INGENIOUS PUFF.-A story is told of Signor Blitz,
which took place in Hartford. IL runs thus: "a clergy.
man came into u public house where he was stopping, and
without knowning the SiRnor VAS present, commenced
talking pretty severely against the tickery. The Sisnor
bore livery good-naiurcdly, aud stepping up to the clergy
man, expressed his opinion that such language came with
an ih-graee irom one who had a pack OF cards in his peck
ct, and who had probably came here for the purpose Of
gambling. This charge was received with great surprise
by the gentlemen present; and the parson was ia a tower
ing passion al the insinustion. The Signor reiterated his
charge, and agreed to prove IL. The clergyman de6ed his
examination: but 10 and behold! he pretended to take
from the parsons bosom a pack Of cards; another pack was
found in his hat, and a box OF dice in his coat pocket
II he had been caught with a sheep in his pocket he could
not have been more surprised; and joining in the general
laugh, he evinced a determination TO be out OF tho Sig
nor's reach as soon as possible"
