This Is protested against as giving an undue
prominence to the voice of the convention, and

Finale Of the Taylor Meeting Movement in tavor
ofMr. Murder iremsn's Jubilee The.
atricais, &c.
The committee appointed TO draft resolutions
tor the consideration of the Taylor meeting were
| in consultation nearly the whole of yesterday -
! That portion of them who wished to connect the
name of Rough and Ready with wing ma
| tional convention, seemed at first determined to
cling to their position, whilst those who preferred
| to run him as an independent candidate, free
from party ties and obligatons, were equally per-
| tinaclous. 1t was evident, however, that the
"no party doctrine was the most popular. The
meeting was the leading topic of discussion in the
streets and public houses, and 1t was not difficult
| to perceive that a majority OF Gen. Taylor's
friends, or those at least who profess to be SO,
| were opposed to the resolutions reported by the
committee at the former meeting, and in favor OF
| going into the canvass untrammelled by either
whiggery or !ocofocoism. A compromise reso-
luton, therefore, simply expressing their prefe-
renee for Gen. Taylor for the presidency, with
no party alusion whatever, was agreed upon
Accordingly, when the meeting assembled in
"market space" last night, the resolutions of the
committee as well as Mr. J. w. Taylor's substl-
tute, were recommitted with instructions to re-
port at great Taylor mass meeting, to be held
resolution was then adopted, and the meeting ad
| journed.
Thus terminated the first great Taylor move
ment in Cincinnati, from which it is evident
| that, it his friends were united, they would be
stronger IN this city than all other parties COM
bined But by their own d issensons, encouraged
as they were by. General Taylor's opponents,
they have neutralized the moral effects which it
was their object to attain.

whiggery and loco ocoism, have already taken
