MIR. HAYWOOD-A LESSON

MIR. Haywood was elected Senator by the
Legislature of North Carolina in lS42, in conse
quence of an unfortunate division that then exist
ed in the ranks of the Democracy of that State.
Col. Brown and Mr. Saunders, were The rival
candidates of the party. The former was the
favor'ie of large majority of the Republican
members, but the latter and his friends evInced a
rash and uncompromsing spirit, and the will of
the majority was defeated. Mr. HAYWOOD was
Drought forward as compromise candidate and
elected Some of our friends who then PLAYED
the part OF impracticables," and succeeded in
defeating COL Brown, are deeply sensible Of their
folly. They trlumphed over man who could he
implicitly relied upon in the hour of need. and
forced The majority into the support of man who
has abandoned and betrayed them 1t is hoped the
Democrats Will hereafter act in concert in every
Stale. The Democracy of Virginia have an inn
portant duty to perform next winter. They have
to elect Senator whose vote may decide some
OF the most important questions that have ever
come before our National Legislature. Union .
CONCESSION and HARMONY, must be- opr
watchwords. If there are any "rule or ruin"
Democrats IN our Legislature. we hope thew will
be treated as the very worst enemies ofthe party.
No one should be recognised as friend to the
Democratic party who refuses to conform to its
usages.

delightful watering place. His advertisement o

multitudes now brought together at that common
centre of fashion, graced at il u.s. with our bravest
generals, wsest statesmen, most beautiful ladies'.
and the gayest and most fashionable bucks of the

GEN. TAYLOR HEADED.

The simplicity that marks Gen. TayIor's per
sonal appearance and habits has become subject
of universal fame. A curious scene occurred at
Point isabel. at the time when Com. Conner an
peared off that place with his feet to give succor
to the army Of occupation Com. Conner is
not only strict in his Dress but has PHILADELPHIA
nicely abon: it. He appears in full and splendid
uniform all public occasions. being the exact
contrast in this particular of Gen. TAYLOR
AT the proper time, Com. Gunner sent word to
Gen. I'a ylOr that he would come ashore and paw
him visit of ceremony. This put old Rough
and Ready" into tremendous excitement If
Com. Conner had quiently come up to his tent
and given him sailors grippe, and sat down on
camp chest. and talked over matters in an old
fashioned way, Gen. Taylor would have been
prepared; hut to have the most carefully dressed
officer IN our navy, commanding the finest fleet,
To come in full uniform, surrounded by all the
glIttering pomp Of splendid equipments, TO pay
Visit OF ceremony, was more than Gen. Tay Tor
had, without some effort, nerve TO 90 through I;
but, ever equal to emergencies, he determined to
compliment Com. Conner and through him the
navy. by appearing in full uniform-a thing his
officers, associated with him for years, had never
known.
In The meanwhile Com Conner was cooitat;no
over the most proper way to compliment Gen
Taylor. Having heard Of his peculiar disrecard
for military dress. he concluded that he wonld
make the visit in manner COMFORTING to Gen
TayIor's habits, and consequently equipped him.

ashore.
The moment old Rongh and Ready" heard
that Com. Conner had landed he abandoned some
heavy work he was personally attending to about
the camp and rushed into his tent, delved at the
bottom oi an old chest. and pulled out uniform
coat that had peacefully slumbered for years in
nndlstuTbed quietnde, slipped himself into il, in
his haste fastening it so that one side Of the stand
ing collar was three button holes above the other.
and sa' himself down, as uncomfortable as can
wei be imagined. With quick step and unat-
tended, Com. Conner presented himself at Gen.
Taylm's tent, and the two soldiers shook hands.

sonaI appearance
The wags in the army, say that the above con-
