A. B. TAILons wetried, double cylinder psten
sir-.prins presses, capable Of throwing off 5000
sheets an hour, when driven by steam, as ours viii

than handbook, and will with tho press, attract nc
ordinary attention.

streets and opposite Jackson Hail. The second story
will DO occupied by the Office Of the National Whie

Of tho most desirable locations in the city, and tn,
facilities which it affords for the publication business
are not to be excelled.'
Advertisers who desire to have standing adver.
msnts inserted in the NATIONAL WING are re.
quescd to bring them in early possible, in order

without annual sowing of seed, which has
been successfully practised at Constance, in
Germany. II was discovered by stewart Of
an estate named Kern. His method, after
ploughing and manuring the land and sowing
it with summer or winter wheat, is to NOV il

From The Bard,towTnn' ((Ky.) Gazette. !

II is not the least remarkable thing Of this
age, so prolific in wonders, that the leading
politicians Of all the great political parties are
a little shy about taking ground for General
Taylor for the Presidency. Now we are pleas
ed at this-for adventures and humbuggers
in party politics have ruled, or rather misruled,
this great nation long enough and their dis
inclination TO support General Taylor is pretty
good evidence that they have not much to
hope for in the division Of spoils among the
viclors. No name since the days Of Wash
ingtou has ever met with such favor. or elicit
ed more spontaneous applause, than that of
Zachary Taylor; the people, the people Of all
parties, are Tor him; they have taken their
course, and will pursue it toi its consummation.
They are right, aud they will do right. They
have not taken their cue from secret caucuses
or public meetings, beat up by party drill
majors, who read them political confession
of faith on banks, tariffs, sub treasures, OF
annexa'ions; they have spoken from the full
ness Of their own hearts they have not wait
ed for the political journals 10 put the word 10
their mouths; they have spoken their indie
pendence; they have parted from the poli,i
clans, and happy will it be for the country il
this parting shall prove final and lasting. l
is in vain tina, Gen. Taylor has been pumped
and trapped for, and had leading questions
put 10 him as 10 his opinions on the grea,
questions that divide the politicians. His an
swers to them are all oracular; they do moi
understand him. But his answers are like
himself-plain enough to be understood by
the people. He will not be the President of a
party, or a faction, or a section in short, he
will be the Peoples President, and not the
Politicians' President. He has strength oil
character enough 10 rub out the old party
lines, and explode the old political dognas.
and break down the old political hobbies, upon
which the demagogues have ridden over the
people for the last five and twenty years
This is wha, the people want, and what, il
they are true to themselves, they will have
and the politicians will have their deserts
the glory of being left to their sober, second
thoughts.

oJ-The Charleston Courier thinks that Gen
Scott ought to insist on one stipulation in the
Treaty OF Peace, If one should be made, and
that is--the occupation Of the city Of Mexico
by our troops, if it were only for one day. The
floating of the American flag over the Halls Of
the Montezumas, it regards as absolutely ne.
cessary TO complete the moral force Of our tri.
umphs over the enemy. Ito humble and con
quer the Mexicans were the object Of the war,
