AnOfhef hack Outs-l ne ayctte'liie
Carolinian cuncs out with an explanation Of the
article in late number of that paper, in which
the attempt was made 10 cast upon the Hon. Ja-
cob Thompson the odum Of the attack made up
on Gen. Taylor by the Democrats in the last
House of Representatives. The Carolinian says
that its alluslon was not to the vote on Thomp-
sons proposition to connect ccnsure with the
resolution of thanks, hut to the "seyeral bitter
onslaughts upon Gen. Taylor made by Thomp-
son himself, unaided by others" We suppose,
then, after accepting this explanation, the Caroll-
MAN will admit that the whole Democratic party
in the House acted with Thompson on his amend
ment implicitly ccnsuriny Gen. Taylor, Thus
far, at least, the attack upon Gen. Taylor was
Systematically madc;" and though they may
now be disposed to back out, the records stand
against them. 49,. .,..i ...
Of course no ono supposes that the Democratic
purity would undertake to justify the silly attacks
made Ivy Thompson and Ficklin upon Gen. Fay
lor, after the battles Of the sth and 9th Of May,
and eshoud rather he inclined to think that the
CarOlinian was asleep ana dreaming, when he per,
mitted such thought to disturb his mind. -,

The Standard and as Corrcspon-
denf. z@&*

II may be that we misapprehendcd the mean
ing Of the Standards Washington Correspondent,
bu, il - il only proves how ambiguous his lan-
guage was. We thought, as did many others,
that Halifax" intended stab at Gen. Tsylor's
reputation that he sought to bring into doubt
his veracity, and would, ii he could - obscure his
laurels by casting censure upon portions of his
conduct.n And now, though we have read his
reply TO the Raleigh Register, we are not satisfi-
cd that ali his inucndocs were not intended, as
we fra supposed, for Gen. Taylor We are
more than ever inclined TO believe that this mask
ed assaiian, like others Of his party, began to see
that it was not safe to attack the old hero; and
therefore, in the awkwardness Of backing out,
would fain have it understood that his disparag-
ing remarks were intended for Gen. Worth. But
we trua he will find that the reputation even Of
this officer stands upon too firm foundation to
be shaken by any anonymous scribblcr.
As 10 the remark Of the STANDARD, that his
Washington correspondent is better friend "a
Gen. Taylor than the editor Of the Recorder, We
have only TO say that he has poor way Of show
ing it. For our part, We would rather write tlowr
such an one an enemy, with his inuendoes AMI
his side thrus,s. lie is so like the Mexican as
sassin, with his stilet,o thrustng in the dark, tina
no one is able TO tell at whom he strikes.
The Recorder, we hope, is capable Of entertain
ing proper sense Of shame when occasion shall
occur; though it seems to be faculty denied Il
the Standard. But however sensitive we may bs

iresses OF Mexico, where the State prisoners are
confined, and where we believe Midshipman Ros.
ers has been detained The population Of Perote
is over 10000 |, is distant from Jaspa about III.
~ miles, and is nearly midway between the capital
and Vera Cruz. There is no place OF any mpor-
lance after passing Peroie, until you come to Pue
bla, city of 10000 inhabitants, with a thriving
population, principally engaged in manufactures OF
lead, Cotton goods, glass, earthen ware and soap
with numerous splendid churches-fne Spanish
houses, with lofty ceilings, and ornamenied walls

or OF which IS perfect blaze of gold and precious
stones. Mr. Thompson, in his work, calls Puebla
'the Lowell Of Mexico" IL is walled civ and
IS distant from The capital about as miles. The
only town OF any note between Puebla and The city
of Mexico, is Cohuila the ancient capital of

Even If Santa Anna could collect his scattered

Vera Cruz to the central city, and rapid move
