The earl had ceased to think OF his encoun-

absence filled him with alarm, and shut
out every other thought. y"
An instant search was determined on.
The earl himself and four domesties, with
dogs and torches, set out for the Shep-
herds track. Others were directed 10

Gen. SCOTS Proclamation.

The Washington correspondent Of the Journal Of
Commerce--the most able and best informed wri.
ter from W eshington-doubts whether the Presi-
dent will sanction Gen. SCOTS late proclamation.
"Tbe Proclamation" he says, puts the war dis
tincily on the ground that it was our duty and
policy to conquer Mexico, in order to prevent the
ascendancy Of party in that country, which our
rulers choose to call monarchists." mother words
we are playing the same game in relation to Mexi
can and American Continental politics, as Eng
land, ever since the accession Of William Of Or
aDge, has been doing with the political affairs Of
Continental Europe Like her, if we pursue this
insensate policy long, shall pile up an immensi
iy Of debt, which for centuries may exhaust the
energies Of cur people and worse, we shall en-
gender rancorous feeling and inexplicable hatred
among the nations we would regulate. Ii poll.
cy too rs abhorrent to our institutions and our
tional character, as it is detestabe in morality.

1T the National Bridge. in which Generals Scott and
Santa Anna killed and that the Mexicans, upon
hearing OF the fall of their leader abandoned their post

Gen. TayIor,s Politics and Position.

The following paragraph we take from the De-
mocratic Advocate, published at Baton Rouge the
place OF Gen Taylors residence
"Our contemporaries are disputing about Gen. Tsy
Ior's politics There need be difficulty this point
Gen Taylor gave bis last vote for Gen Jaekson-he
would have voted for Clay, at the late election because
he personally esteemed and admired him statesman
and because he opposed 10 the Annexation Of exss
on Constitutional grounds. Gen Taylor says he belongs
