EN TAYLOR,S NORTHERN FACE.

Gen. TAYLOR'S NORTHERN FACE.
&c have at length succeeded in screwing
sd the Editor of the " New Haven Journal
he revelation which we were seeking. We
stefmined TO smoke out the {" old coon; :" and
ceoTdngly, in his paper of Thursday last, he
aa<es full confession about Gen. Taylor
bass over his rigmaroIe about ourselves,
FIJI eome at once 10 the gist of the article -
S to any letters in this vicinity from Gen.
glor, asserting what he would do in refer
nee to the Wimot Proviso, we have never
erted nor believed in their eXstence-at
Same time we have asserted and published
bis sheet letter from an eminent GENTLE
Il, (who, by the way, the Register says is
ha Hon. Truman Smith, but yet who says
h on his own authOrity,) in which letter the
aat reHQHe information is given, as TO the
neal aud enlarged po>lcY'of Gen Tnylor
Question. Gen Taylor would not veto a
.Of Congress, establishing the ProviSo prn-
aae he considers that matter settled by the
stitui0n already, and not to be disturbed
s De wishes of any set of mcn-nOt even by
sHseIf, if he wished it-and ii is our conf
sNee in, and admiration of, this spirit of jus
has in the old man, that constitutes one Of
lie claims he has on the respect of the whole
country. We say the principle of SIdreTN &C.
ION is a base One-nOt sanctioned by tue
spifii of the federal compact, nor contemplated
1r land we could no more support a man
h0 would violate that compact IN this way.
.han we would any other traitor 10 the real
interests of the whole country Gen. TAYLOR
Eives us in his first letter to Allison, and in
nis Conversations with other gent emen, what

1ol only on this, but other questions, if the
iaif will of Congress is made known and ev-
eFy nan may rely on il, that Gen. Taylor will
feel be is not sent TO Washington to lord il o.
v6I Congress, but TO be the Executive and en-
ponent of the peoples will expressed through
that body. We tell the Union once more, that
we lave no knowledge Of "a letter from Taylor
% Bates, of which Truman Smith has Il copy,
nor DO we think such letter is in existence !;
aud yet we say again, Gen. Taylor mas stated
Be aCouid not NEEDLE with the constitutional
action OF Congress ON the slavery or any other
We have what we consider k,oul-
sdes positive on this point and on it we here
ii Tie North rely The " Union may take
fhe fact-use t--for we have no wish to play
ame; and he NAV send it South as far as
BE pleases. Not Wing South of Mason and
Eixon's line, however, will be disturbed hair
1g such fact
aere, then, we have the whole confession,
"a We expected. Though there may be 10
salfer from Gen. Taylor himself, vet there is a
seller referred to by Mr.. Smith from a most
Eellable correspondent, who had conversed
With General Taylor, and thoroughly under
stood his views The Journal editor has posi-

- you'd not NEEDLE with any bill, with the
kFogiso clause in it, which Congress may pass.
such Is the positive fact, aH4 we nave no
donbt about it and vet here is Connecti1u,
edltor who is so well satisfied Of the infatua
ied and bigoted spirit of the Southern Wings
that he believes the positive declaration and ;
certain knowledge Of this fact will not disturb
har' the vote of a single Southern Wing
The people of the South Know best how &c
apprecate this factious devotion TO the Wings
Union.
"a. Truman Smith is the author.
