The following rapid specimen OF pot
ken from the Knickcrbocker for Aui
he author is Mr. J. G. SANE, Of st,
ermont:
Singing through the forests,
Rnttling over ridges,
Shooting under arches,
Rambling over bridges;
Whi2zing through the mountains,
Buz2ing DER the vale.
Bless me this is pleasant,
Riding on a rail
Men of different "stntions"
In the eye of Fame,
Here arc very quickly
Coming to The same!
High and lowly people,
Birds of every feather,
On common level
Travelling together.
Gentleman in shorts
Looming very tall;
Gentleman at large
Talking very SMALL
GentIrlnNn III llHutS
With Il loosc-ish mem )
Gentleman in gray
Looking rather grecnj
Gentleman quite old
Asking for the news
Gentleman in black
In fit of "blucs;
Gentleman in clarct
Sober as a vicar;
Gentleman in snuff
Drcadlully in liquor
Stranger on the right
Looking very sunny;
Obviously reading
Something very funny;
Now the smiles are thicker;
Wonder what they mean
Faith he's got the KNlcKER-
HocHER Magazine!
Stranger on the left
Closing mp his peppers;
Now he SHORES analn,
Like the Seven Slccpcrs
At his feet volume
Gives the explanation,
How the man grew stupid
From "Association -
Markct-womcn careful
OF the precious caslSct,
Knowing "cggs are egg,
Tightly holds her basket
Feeling that "a smash,
If it came, would surely
Send her eggs to pot
Rather prcmaturcly !
Ancient maiden lady
AnNiously remarks,
That there must be peril
'Mong 50 many sparks;
Roguish- looking follow,
Turning to the stranger,
Say it's his opinion
She is Jut Of danger.
Woman with her baby
Sitting vi5-a-vis
Baby keeps n squallmg,
Woman looks at me
Asks about the distant,
Says it's tircsome talking,
Noises of the cars
Are so very shocking
Singing through the forests,
Railing over ridges,
Shooting under arches,
Rambling oyer bridges
Whi2zing through the mountains,
Buzzing DER the vale

Letter Of Gen. lnylor to The lion. Joseph r.
MgoSoH, cf Riiadciphia--We have hoped,
for some time past; TO obtain a copy OF the
above letter; but we have been disappointed
and for reasons which may be hereafter sta
ted. The general tenor and substance,
however, we are permitted 10 inpart to our
readers.
Tie letter is dated the 81 of August, 1917,
At the Head Quarters Of tie Army of Occu-
patton in Mexico. Ii commences by stating
that he Gen, Taylo) is "a Wing. not AN
ultra partisan Wing, but a decided Whig:''
that no one could have observed the debate
in the Congress OF The last session OF the
attempt 10 censure him for the capllulaion
Of Monterey, conducted mainly on 'puty
grounds" and doubt ''thc c2mp!crioa Of hj5''
(MY) 'poiitiey," THAT he has held Il com
mission III the army OF the United States for
forty years--this commission being one Of
the last issued 10y Mr. Jefferson; tina, in the
last Presidential election lie advocated the
election Of Mr.. Clay, believing that he aud
his friends, ''a&imuotcd1 more TO the prin-
ciples OF Mr., Jefferson than their "opp0-
no,ts,'
Gen. Taylor proceeds then 10 define hi,
present posion-that he does not think
himself qualified for the Presidency; that he
would willingly postpone his name 10 Sc.
cure the election OF Mr. Clay or any of tie
distinguished men OF the same school now
presented 10 the public. lfhowovcr, the
people OF the United States shall spontane-
ously elect him, he shall feel himself bound
10 serve; but HAT he will not accept Of a par.
~ nomination ':ctciuaGciy' That if he
should be elected he will 80 into office un-
pledged TO any particular course; ihat he
was determined 10 carry out the intention OF
the trainers Of the constitution, OF whom two
(referrine to Washington and Madison, J
were among the early Presidents of the
country and that he is determined in such
case 10 be the President of the nation, y
and not oil a 'pay'y."
This letter Is, we understand the most
full and satisfactory exposition OF Gen Tay-
lors views yet given by him. Mr. lnger
soil will not consent TO lis publication, be-
cause 1t is an answer to letter forged By
some individual and purpouing to have
been written by lIr. IngersoII, when no such
letter was ever written by him.
We think Mr.. Ingcrsoll right in the posi-
ton he has taken; but we hope he will take
the proper measures to relieve himself from
this difficulty, and obtain the consent OF
Gen. Taylor to lay This interesting documon
before the public.

stated a few days since, says the New Or

soon be expected home.We were aware
at the time we made the notice, that
Gen: Taylor had applied for leave of alb

it. We perceive that the fact has been
mentioned at Washington, and that his
return on, or about the lst of November
cannot be doubted, as we have no idea

PROPOSED REORGANIZATION or MIR. POLK.
The New York True Sun, paper
which, to use its own words, has s'suport-
ed this administration in its General
course" says that the personal friends Of
Mr.. Polk venture 10 propose his rc-o.oc-
ton. A toeler is also put oui in Inc \.
Y. Sunday Times, in favor Of MIR, Folks
re-nomination, and we have no doubt
that intrigues are on foot amonr the
hangcrs-on Of the Administrations Tor that
purpose. The True Sun, however, with
all its predictions in favor Of the Prosi-
dent, is compelled to admit that ''Mr.
Polk has not the smallest chance of a re-
election"
Now it seems to us that if the war is
so eminently popular as the Union and
its colleagues of the Locofoco press rep
resent it to be, Mr.. Polk, its author,
would carry all before him at th" next
Presidential election. Polk Tor Prcsi-
dent and Buchanan for Vice President
would be a strong team. "Set 'cm up

AMERICAN TEA. We learn by a commit
nication in the Union that the Hon Jas.
Buchanan, Secretary OF State, has recent
ly received a package Of tea, grown in
Brazil, from our consul at St Catharinp's.
The leaf is something larger and darker
than the Chinese Tea: its flavor is strong
and aromatic, and resembles the best Spe
cimens from China. When prepared, it
strongly assilatcs the mixture Of black
and green tea, SO much-iudacd: almost
exclusively-drunk in England; after
China, the greatest tca-drinkiDr country
in the world. The tea plant was first
introduced into Brazil by Kin. John of
Portugal. The writer Of the commune
cation states that IN" successful culliva-
ton Of this plant in the United States.

Il Registry Lov.--It is boast among the
locoocos, that at any time when the inl-
por'ance of the issue demands it, they can
have in the city of Baltimore, a majority
sufficient 10 overcome the wing maiori,ies
in the counties: and it seems to have been
proved by actual occurrences, that they can
have any stated majority they require, when
one Of those important issues is before tn e
people. When Pratt and Carroll were run
ming they wanted 1900 majority, and they
had then--at the late election they supposed
1900 would be required and 10! they were
there. 1t will be recollected that one year
AGO Mr.. keyser, whg, was elected 10 the
State Senate, that two wing delegates were
elected, and that Mr. lowering lacked but
about 100 votes of being elected mayor
These facts have awakened The people of the
counies-;hey are at a loss TO acc cunt for
these strange results, and the whig portion
Of them, are beginning 10 cast about for Il
remedy TIE remedy everywhere looked
to, is Registry Law in that city, tina, the
ballot box may be guarded from the outrages
10 which it is known to be subjected
I, is Il duty The counties owe 10 themselves
10 see 10 this matter: selt-preservaion de-
mands, that, if it lie in their power, they
prevent the imported myrmidons who on
such occasions vote n Baltimore from over.
whclmng them, and it is prevailing hope
that every wing delegate and Senator, will
this winter lend his aid 70 enact a proper Re-
gis'ry Law for that city, Such a Law can
do no ininstice--no Just man should oppose
its enactment, and we trust tho counties
will speak ont and demand it, in such terms
as viii ensure them a hearing. More on
