GENERAL TAYLOR ON THE SLAVE QUEs-
TIoN. great deal has been said about the pro-
per Interpretation to be given to General Taylor's
answer to what is known as the sSignal Letter.
Upon that subject, the Independent Monitor
published at Tuscaloosa, Aiabama,) says:
"A AT any rate, we have III our possession an
original private letter, in1manuscrpt, written by
General Taylor seven months and half ago, in
reply to a specific question on this very point, in
which he states that ii Das not his intention to
intimate his concurrence NTH, nor opposition to
any Of his oie,oS of the Editor Of the Signal J;
that the Signal Letter was not written for pub
lication and that, under the impression that it
would not go beyond the person addressed, it was
written without that critical attention TO the terms
employed which politicians appear SO much to re-
quire. He replied, he says, TO the Editor only as
a matter Of ofcourtesy; and, as is always his Gus
tom, he signi6ed his respect for opinions honestly
entertained, and his appreciation of the course Of
man who manfully defends what he sincerely
believes.
"This letter, which now lies before us, we are
not at liberty to publish in full but when efforts
making to produce the most injurious Impressions
in regard to its distinguished author, we should be
recreant both TO truth and 10 duty if we did not,
on our own responsibility, make use OF the means
