John C. Calhoun.

Judging by communications in the Charles
ton papers, Mr.. Calhoun's speech at that-city
is considered by each Of the parties of Taylor
ties and Democrats as favorable to itself. To
settle the matter the Secretary Of the meeting
at which Mr.. Calhoun spoke, writes to the
Courier as follows:--
"Ihere appears to be some difference Of
opinion in the comm unity, in reference to the
language used by Mr.. Calhoun at the meeting
on Saturday night last, and l have been ap-
pealed to, as one of the Secretaries of that
meeting, to state my impressions.
"My notes and recollection represents our
Senator in 4he passages Of his speech in dis
pute as follows;-
Universities Of opinion are entertained on
the subject of the presidency. Gen. Taylor
is preferred by some, Gen. Cass by Others -
All are equally sincere, and all, in his opinion
were equally patriotic, equally Republican, and
equally Democratic"
And again:-
"Do not permit any mere temporary ques-
ton to estrange or divide you. If the South
is united there is yet hope of saving the Union.
We can rally a great Southern Republican
party based upon principles above the mere
making of Presdints; and with such a party
we can command our terms, and CONTROL the
North. And remember, Gllow %citiasns, the man
aho 'sEarthes!G from from you in politics at The
South, as nearer 10 yon than any man Of either
yGrty al the North. So long as the South per-
mits any candidate who claims her support to
tamper with the abolitionists for their votes,
her influence will be lost and rights disregard

GER. raylOr as a Farmer and master.

We give below extracts from a letter writ
ten by Gen. Taylor to his agent in Mississippi
some years since, concerning the Management.
of his farm and the care he desired taken o
his servants, in his absence. The patricrchal
almost fatherly care with viii oh he watched
over his slaves, shews him to be what he ha.
ever been represented, a man of the purest
kindest and most sensitive heart.
The kind and considerate liberality with
which he directed so large a sum Of money to
be distributed among his servants on occasion
of the christmas festival, is a full and complete
refutation of all the low charges of parsimony
and stinginoss, made against him by the most
scurriIuus Of the opposition.
But we will not detain the reader longer
from the perusal of the extracts Read them
attentiveIy. The kind, afTctionate, and con.
siderate soul of the good old man shines forth
in every line and s%purklos in every sentences;

Taylor to his Agent in Mississippi, dated
