We have objection to "Our venerable neghbor,
who 'presded over the Executive organ" employ
ing any of 'hunder" provided he uses it at the
proper But must caution him against all mis-
representation Of facts, and the consequent abuse of
language If we read the signs of the heavens right he
skies (no bright" to the whigs-nor are they even
'comng right" We cannot see, for example, either the
the extent of his rejocings the final de-
movement of the wings Albany In the article referred
TO, the editor discloses (vhout intending do SOY the
utter hopelessness of the whig cause Whence arises
his oy' Not from the conversion of democrats to wings
but from the fact that some of the old whg leaders
about Albany have not abandoned the Philadelphia NOM
nation, as they have done elsewhere We not Sc
cruel envy the editor any pleasure which he may
derive from this source.
Gen. Taylor nominated at Philadelphia not for the
purpose of receiving portion of the wing vote, but under
the false supposon that, by conceament of opinions and
the dupcity of his friends he could concentrate the en-
tire wing party, and make large inroads upon the
democracy If the exccuhoners of Mr.. Clay, at Phia
delpha, had supposed the wing party TO constitute
majority of the voters of the United States the great
embodiment of their principes-he gallant states

polar star-woull again have been called upon to lead
them to battle. And in controversy where Henry Clay

Yet such is the point to which Taylorism is now re-
duced The spontaneous combustion, looked for as the
sequence to his nomination, has resulted in smoke
The democratic ranks, that were to be SO terribly
hinned are still serried and prepared for the approach
ing struggle. The Janus faced positions assigned Gen
era Taylor by the northern and southern wings o.
the wing party, on the subject of the Wmot Proviso
instead of deceiving the masses, was both intended
and expected, excite the dersion and contempt OF thu
whole country His pretended reputation of the veto
power, conferred on the President by the constitution
dissusts the entire democracy and is viewed with dsfa
vor even by many wings From the late manifestation,
of the Integencer expect to hear shout from
the whig press that federalism is entirely extinct il
Massachusetts, These of pleasure the whig,
may enjoy ad ibitum, but we shall begin to feel some
interest in their "crow,ng," when hear Of their car

constitute portion of, the great democratic pyramid
Our accounts from all sections of the Union are mos
