DEAR SIR:-Our political prospects in
the West are bright and Frightening
The Wings are everywhere united on
TAYLOR ANDIRElN, and their vote
FOR Governor this fall viii, in my opinion,
be stronger than it was last for Canal
Commissioner, when our majority IN the
State was, believe, about 10000. Since
then the political current has been run
ming everywhere {as The election will
chow in favor or the Mhigs and against
the locus. Not only in Pennsylvania but
in every State in the Union. Look at
this fact. In the present Congress the
locos have more than two TO one IN the
House Of Representatives. In the next
Congress the Wings will have decided
maioriiv-a political revolution, bellere,
Without a parallel. The people Will
submit 10 a great deal, but there is point
where 'iorbearance ceases to be virtue,
and this point has been reached and
transcribed by our rulers, both State and
National.
Our candidates are fixed, and no true
Wing can hesitate. TAYLOR is the Wing
candidate for President. The public
press and popular opinion have settled
This question ia every State IN the Union,
and his election may be considered as
IA fixed fact lie is and always has
been true and genuine Whig, and well
they know it at the "Whi.e House. y
Hence the hostility OF the Union"
Polk's official, which growls and snarls
at "Old Rough like pampered mastiii
who is about to be deprived Of his stolen
meal.
The old hero has, as usual, taken the
true position, TO run as the peoples can
didaic,' and not as parLizan. His
ground at Buena Vista was no better Sc
lected, and his enemies viii soon find it
out. Thousands of the patriotic and hon.
est Democrats will rally with us around
his standard in spite of all their leaders
can say or do. "0!d Rough" will always
know his friends from his enemies. He
will see the journals of the last session of
Congress when an effort was made by the
locolocos TO convert vote of thanks into
a vote Of CENSURE, against him, by
adding proyiso disappearing of the ca
piialation of Monterey. and every loeoio-
co voed fer it, and every Whig against
II, yet some Of these very men who vo-
ted against him are now pretending to be
for him; but Old Rough will know and re-
member them, and the people. the friends
of TAYLOR and IRWIN, will this fall
remember the fact that the Shmkmen vo-
ted unanimously against Gen. Taylor,
and there are some other votes the Skunk
men from Pennsylvania gave last spring
which ought TO be stereotyped and kept
before the people at the head of every
Wing paper until the second Tuesday Of
