GENERAL TAYLoR's LETTER.-A long communion
lion In the New York Express. apparently written By
Dr. F. BACON. and specifically sanctioned by General
Gaines shows forth the history Of General Taylors
much talked Of letter. and the manner Of its pUbca-
tion. The letter. 1t seems written to General
Gaines who is General Tayo second cousin and
with whom he has been loag in the habit of cores
bonding freely. General Gaines showed it one day
to Dr. Bacon, who is his occasional medical ad,i-
SER Dr. BacoE suggested that It's publication would
be timely and useful as complete answer to al
those rascally attacks upon General Taylor" aud
that the whole people ought TO it. General Gaines
assented very readily, and Dr. Bacon, as soon as he
had leisure, made copy, emitting the confidential
passages which copy he offered to the editors of the
Express.
On the day ef the publication, Gen. Gaines sent
copy of the Express to Gen. Taylor, with a letter
explaining why he had permitted the publication and
regulating the editorial comments of the ExpSess
Having occasion TO visit Washington the next day,
he laid copy of the Express before the President
and in the evening had an interview with that gente-
man and the Secretary Of War, to whom he ayowed
his agency in the publication, with like disclaimer
of the editorial comments. Gen. Gaines denies that
there is any thing in the letter, either written
as published, the publication Of which could, ION
any known military principles. contribute to do the
United States any injury or Mezico any good. Dr..
Bacon denies that there any counsel with polis-
clans ia reference to the publicaiion it was his

We the undersigned officers of the Cd regiment of

That 1t. Gov. Dunning was engaged lii the suiling
business is true. That he connected with p NJ
Kent in selling whiskey and other liquors to the SOL
diers at high and most exorbitant prices be
denied by any person who was here at that time.
The volunteers forced to buy Of them or do
without, because they were the suffers to the Reg-

of the Rio Grandc or Matamoras. We deem it but
Justice and duty we owe to those persons who have
written home disclosing these facts, TO make thus
openly, this statement: and we surprised that
he attempted to shuttle off the responsibility. We
regret see that persons judged acting from
sinister motives in openly denouncing him TO the peo-
pie of Indiana. The statements made and published

whiskey for than about 10 days. We are well

Under envelope dated Camp near Saltillo, Jan.
9, 1647," we have just received the communications
which we append below, from Captain Kinder, who
informs that he has forwarded copies of the
to the State Journal Upon careful reading of these
communications. we do not that they establish
any thing more than Mr. Cunning has himself admit
ted as to matter Of fact But the, do seem 10 evince
disposition to put the construction upon
those facts which they will possibly bear; and
to manifest feeling of personal hostility towards
Mr. Dunning rather difficult to account for if these
facts alone are taken into view. By the same mail
which brought these communications, we received a
private letter from another source on which we can
rely, and from which we take the liberty of making
the following extract:
81 see that they are attacking Mr.. Dunning for
selling whiskey at exorbtant prices. i know but
little about this natter but have heard il frequently
remarked that P. M. K had rather skinned him,
and that Notwithstanding the exorbtant prices charged
Mr. ID. would lose in the transaction. But | would
Just say to you that there other people who sold
whiskey besides Paris c. Cunning, and if whis-
key seller is to be attacked, they ought to give them
all rough thunder. | am neither advocating nor de-
tending any man, but contend that all persons guilty
Of the same offence ought to be treated alike.
gret that Capt Kinder wrote the article in the Paoli
paper, because have high regard for him. There
will be plenty of time to talk of these matters after
we get home"
We think there is some pith in these remarks and
so we presume will our readers. But we must trust
to time for development of all the circumstances
in this case; and have doubt that that arbiter
will be test of motives as well as of facts.
