0GT. TAYLOR IN Favor OF THE WILMor PRoyIso
Mr. CorWIn has asserted in some Of his speeches ir
Ohio, that he has seen letter establishing beyond
contradiction the determination of General Tavor to
sanction the Wimot Proviso

ing, Mr. Russell of Harrison, leading whig mem.
Der of the last Legislature, said that he had the word
Of Thomas Ewing that Mr.. Corwin had assured him
(Ewing) that he had the document in his pocket to
prove that General Taylor went the free-so doctrine
Mr.. Ewing had not seen the letter. but had the word
OF Mr.. CoTwin that it was in his possession"

citizens of Cleveland on Wednesday last. He
threw down the gauntlet both the Taylor and Van
Buren, men. In the course of the carte and fierce he
tween him and the other combatants F. j. Prentiss
Taylor man, declared that "he had lately had pri

BoTTs ON TAYLOR.

The ssterrible' Mr.. Bolts, of Virginia. has at last
determined, under whip and spur, to vote for Gen.
TAYLOR! He sees that ultra Wing he can do
no better but at the same time he protests against
the act. and declares that the physic is very bad
to take Poor Bolts! Terrible Bolts! Consistent
and most logical Bolts! g." 'H
Now that Mr.. Bolts has taken this position, we
suppose he is taylor man; and being Taylor man,
we suppose he has as good right as other Taylor
men have to speak the truth about the old General.
In his Speech, delivered in New York City week
or two snce in which he gave in his adhesion to the
Taylor party, he said:
"After he (Gen. Taylor had written to Henry
Claw that if he were nominated by the Convention,
he (Gen. Taylor) would cordially support hm--thls
same General Taylor subsequently denied that he had
ever written any such letter, and furthermore, II
not nominated he would not consider himself bound
by the Convention
, This is fact" says Mr.. Bolts, '' to achich
can bear personal uoitness."Z0
Mr.. Bolts in the same speech, bears his 'Person-
all testimony also the fairness and honesty OF the
Wing National Convention. He says:
"WelI, the nomination made-h01O, 1t is not
nv present purpose to inquire. Fradulently, be-
lieve-yes, by the improper use and free promise
oney not by Gen. Taylor, for he is honest, but by
those who deeply interested In securing MS
nomination. / recollect to have heard statement
made by gentleman, in large meeting OF Henry
Claws friends that colleague of his had said to
him, as he passed through Washington. that if the
nomination of Taylor and Abbott Lawrence was Sc
cured he should have $4,000 to put in his pocket.
heard one of the most respectable members of that
Convention say that he told so by his colleague
r Cries of /" shame' {" shame," and hisses."l
The above, be it remembered, is from Taylor
Whig-from John Minor Bolts, Wing member of
the House of Representatives! Weas the Wings
of this State-and especially Gov. Morehead and
Mr. Kerr. the Wing Eector for the Orange District
to put the above in their pipes and smoke it.

GENERAL LEWIS CASS.

The democrats are peculiarly fortunate in the
selection Of their standard bearer of 184s, Lewis
Cass, whose reputation through life of near three
score years, analyze it you please, is inferior tc
none of his countrymen. The Hon. Abbott Lawrence
end the Editor Of the National lnteligencer, both
high Wing authorizes, with great fairness have award
ed to General Cass the character OF the uPrght and
good citizen. The Hon. Frederick Robinson, In q
recent communication, uses the following language
81 have always been partial to the character OF
Cen. Cass. He was born and brought up in my ma
tive town, exeter, New Hampshire,) and although
he left about the time of my birth, yet families
were always intimate and near neighborS. My grand
father and the father of Gen. Cass were both Majors
In the Revolution, and both fought in the battle of
Bunker Hill. l was always more familiar with his
relatives than with any other persons out of my own
family in Exeter, and consequently in the way
Of hearing him spoken of in terms of commentator
Ny aged mother, who has resided with me many
years, still remembers him. She used often to speak
Of him, az having been good boy, and bright
scholar In Exeter Academy, and has often encourag-
ed me to persevere In my efforts for self-educaon,
BY quoting the success of Lewis Cass, who also
commenced life in INDECENT circumstances.
! we'll recollcct that, while student in Exeter
Academy, have often heard the venerable and ex-
OeIisnt Dr. Abbott in order to encourage his pupils
speak of the eminent men whom he had educated,
and especially of Lewis Cass and Daniel Webster,
who were pupils at the time under his instruc-
hon. From these circumstances was led to make
Mr. Cass In some degree my exemplar, and follow
otter him, at an humble distance l confess, in my
efforts for Improvement. Accordingly watched his
career, and became familiar with the principal events
of his history. l observed him in youth battling
maHfuy against adverse circumstances, travelling on
loot as pioneer to the west; enduring the labor,
PriTations, hardshps and dangers of new settle
ment among wild beasts and hordes of savage men.
He has since served his country in peace and war;
at home and abroad in the cabinet and in the coun-
oil, and during long life full of incident and temp
tatiop, his private character remains unsulled. -

The neutral presses generally concede the election
of Gen. Taylor. Neu0bernian
The neutral presses do no such thing. Even the
New York Herald is evidently in despair, and as
good as gives up the contest.
The NewberniaR submits table of Electoral votes,
the probable result and that table is sufficient to
show what the Editor really thinks the result must
be. He gives Taylor $50 votes, and Cass 130; and
among the Taylor States he is compelled to include
North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Ohio, Louisi-
ana, and Florida! Subtract Ohio, and he is beaten;
subtract even Georgia and Louisiana, and old Zack

last assemblage of some four or five hundred was
addressed by Maj. w. ]. Clark, and by Perrin Bus

the Speeches of these gentlemen spoken of in the

nIFFER from all others in their opera D ton, Their effect is not confined 10 any particular part of the system, but act equally on all parts. In all chronic diseases few boxes of these pills effects an imme- diate and certain cure.
 The Sarsaparilla aud Wild Cherry Pills are gradually dissolved in the stomach, and taken up by the lacteal vessels, and distri- buted through every artery and vein, puri- lying each and all in its course, and work ing gently, yet powerfully, il reaches every part of the system. and restores the affected part at once 10 healthy and pure action.- Through it's component parts, SAIsSA- PARILLA and VI LID CHERRY, it pos sesses the Ultimc Thule of all medicines, the ability to purge and purify, and at the same time strengthen and tone the stomach. Consequently the bowels are never left by them in weak and disordered state, as is the case with other pills, and therefore their operation is never followed by subse. quenl costiyeness.
 The discovery of the compromising the

 Pills
 was no, discovered by the Camanche In> dians, nor in the Fejee Islands, but by one of the most talented physicians of London, and who received the Medal awarded by the COLLEGE OF PHARMACY AT PARIS, to all physicians who make val uable discovery in the healing art.
 All oi the common diseases to which the human family are liable are at once eradl- cated by Dr. Le Rows Pills, but it is in those cases which have been pronounced incurable by physclans, that their great power and efficacy are proved.
 The proprietor has often tried these pills in cases which regular physicians have pro nouneed incurable, and upon which most oi the popular remedies had been tried in vain and he is proud in having the qualification to say tha, in almost every case it has me' with entire success.
