Hhea the doors were thrown open. the room was Sled in an instant
 About o'clock, Mr Botts appeared on the plat fern, with bis immediate friends. Willis Hall was named Chairman, aDd Benedict Lssis Secretery = The address and Res7iutens reeomsneBd the mAia- tenance Of The Clay Cta5s and other organizations In view sf the good unac coming, swhca the day sf eAPedleacy and svafiAbiiiy shall have gone by.' Mr. Bolts then commenced speaking He praised Mr Clay the greatest wisest and best man that now Ewes, ever did or ever will live. fife ins-te that nine tcnths of thc whig party for Mr Cfsy, Do Y and soul, iatuated Hast his nomination vas pIevenIed and that oi General Taylor procured by bFisery-by the direct Use of money. He said that General Taylor had wFtic0 letter to Mr. Clay, which he Bottsl had seen, stasiaz thai if Mir Clay wsEe nominated, he (fayloFl would withdraw = 'AfaerwarIs.' costRRe Mir Bolts, General Taylor wrote letter, published m the town in which 1 live, drsying that he had ever written this letter 10 Mir. Clay! =.
 Having tisus Seneu need General Taylor as guilty of prcyaricatisn at least, As Bolts exclaimed agains his acceptance of eatraneoas nominations as insul ting so the wing party; and ha iug deiaod his owR position in relation 10 tue principles Of the whig party uhwavefi0s sana having repeatedly declared tt.af general Taylor mss any thing unaer Heaven but wlis. Mir. Botts conciuded by saTing he would vote for him.
 When this declaration escapcA bis Iitys he WAS ossrwheIuied with ssorm of hisses, groaus and every sar of vocal disapprobaioa; he stood on tsle plat orn, with folded arms for E tunatex without attempting 10 speak Al lesgth silence wss restored by the sugg grsiioa of some gentlemen that this was unworthy treatment of a stranger a whig who had left his homs expressly visit his brethren in New ] York. It seems curious that an emfaent whiv should be mo55ed in whig meeting for sIyias he would vote for Gen. Taylor, although ., the 4aae tune he denounced tho General as wholly unfit ter u,e office. and unworthy of support fron the whfg party Bat this is what happened to Colonel Bolts: 1 Inc HeraiS says:
 "Ihe conclusion to which the friends of Ny ] Clay arrived, was 10 assume position of ailned neutrality between Generai Tsy!c. and General Cass asserting thst ,hey eouii not vo'e for Geuer- al Taylor; would not support General Cass, aad as their chosen fzvoFite would Hot allow lis name te be used that would not vote at all. All went on well until the conclusion ef Mr. Betts' speech.
