Taylor's personal appearance and habits.
have become subject of universal fame.
1t is curious that soldier, so eminent in
all the qualities of discipline, should be so

ner is a naval officer that is not only strict
in his dress, but has Philadelphia nicely
about it. He appears in full and splendid
uniform on all public occasions, being the
exact counterpart in this particular OF
Gen. Taylor.
AT the proper time, the Commodore
sent word to Gen. Taylor, that he would
come ashore 10 pay him a visit of ceremo-
ny. This put old "Rough and Ready" in
to a tremendous excitement. 1.-THE Com
modore had quietly come up 10 his tent,
and given HIM sailors gripe, and sat
down on camp chest, and talked over
matters in an old fashioned way, Gen.
Taylor would have been prepared; but, 10

come in full uniform, surrounded by all the
glilering pomp of splendid equipments
