A Revolution in Martinique..

The ship Europe, Capt. Mercier, which left
St. Thomas, on the oath Of last month, for this
port, brings the information, that the negroes
in those islands have risen en- n,a"e, and COM
mitted the most horrible enormities.
On the date above, general massacre of the
white inhabitants of Martinique, took place.
At St. Pierre several houses had been burned,
and, in one of them, thirty persons were co1-
sumed Everything there was in the most
dreadful confusion.
The troops from Fort Royal were called up
on, but refused to act, and retreatsd to their
quarters. Every road and avenue leading to
St. Pierre, was crowded with blacks, coming
to the assistance Of their associates in murder.
The disturbance was supposed to be general
all over the island Of St. Thomas.

Gen. Zachary Taylor.

The following sketch from the Boston 1|aU-
eiler will be found interesting:
Gen. Taylor is man Of medium stature,
large frame, with a massive chest and shout
ders, and though not imposing when on the
ground, he appears finely on horse back. From
long exposure to the climate of Florida and
the far South, his complexion is almost the
color of mahogany. The same cause has af-
fected his eye-sight, and he has formed the
habit of half closing his eyes. He 1ooks'
when not in conversation, as if he was quiz
zing some one: but when engaged in cohver
sation, his eyes sparkle, and his face lights up
with intelligence. He is exceedingly fascina-
his appearance and manners he reminds one
Of New Hampshire farmer, who has seen
much of hard foil. He is distinguished for
great common sense, for modesty in the utter
ance of his opinions, and great firmness in ad-
herring to what he conceives to be right
Some years ago he was called to Washington
to unravel some perplexing matters in connec-
ton with the Indian Department. He display
ed such profound knowledge of that whole
department,-he undid the knotted question
with such dexterity, and displayed such strong
common sense and practical wisdom, that q
beaureau was offered to him in that department
but declined.
Gen. Taylor is not profane man. He has
been accused of profaneness. Words said to
have been uttered by him on the field of bat
tie have gone through the Union. But no
one who knows Gen. Taylor believes such
report. Men who have been with him in
scenes the most trying, under circumstances
the most provoking, never heard him utter an
oath; he refrains from principle.
Gen. Taylor was two years in a fort as the
commander Of 1900 men, many Of whom were
among the worst Of the race; and In that
fort, swearing was as common as plumes; the
very moral sense seemed 10 demand an oath
as a test ola gentleman. The Chaplain who
was with General Taylor during his whole
command, & saw him under circumstances the
greatest provocstion, says he never heard an
oath from bis lips. His principle and practices
n this respect are known to the whole army

WING NoMINATIoNs--The N. y. Crescent,
(neutrall under this head, speaks as follows:
''Taylor and Fillmore, are, therefore, the
wing no minees, and strong ticket they make.
We are of opinion that Mr.. Fillmore's name
will add much strength to the ticket in New
York, and improve still more the very fir
prospects the Wings now have (, ring that
State. Although not standing in the very first
rank, Mr.. Fillmore has always occupied very
prominent position in his party, and has pos
sessed much Of its confidence. During the
time that he was member Of the House of
Representatives, he was considered oneof the
most valuable, industrious and indefatigable
of its members--in all things faithfully repre-
sen,ing his party. In 1914 he was the wing
candidate for Governor of New York, in oppo-
sition to Silas Wright, and con sidering the ex-
traordinary popularity o the latter gentleman,
made very creditable run. Altogether, this
ticket is about as strong one as the Wings
could have nominated; all the Democtats have
to do now, is to go to work and defeat it--if
they can.
