GENERAL TAYLOR IN MARYLAND.-We find
the following paragraph in the late message of
Governor Pratt to the Legislature of MARYLAND
The name of General Taylor, but for this
war, would have been unknown tn nanv &c
his countrymen; it now commands the respect
and admiration of other nations, and fills the
hearts OF the American people with devotion
unexampled since the days of Washington.
lbs intimate acquaintance with the existing
Ie'atlons OF TINS country with Mexico, and the
purity of purpose and sterling good sense man
tested by all that he has said or done, will. I
am persuaded, fully justify the wisdom of the
determination plainly evinced by his fellow
citizens to confer on him the highest office in
the gift of the Republic. do not indulge a

The WAR QUESTION FOR CONSIDERATION
The National Intelligencer has reviewed at
great length and with great ability, the last
message of Mr.. Polk, and concludes by propoun-
ding the following pertinent questions Tor the
consideration of the public, who after all Will
have to decide the matter:
First. Do YOU believe that, in December,
1913. the boundary of the United States mad
been extended to the Rio Grande?
Secondly. Do you believe that the Mexican
province of Tamaulipas, east of the Rio Grande
was, on the 18th day of May, 1916, American
soil?
Thirdlu. Do you believe that the existing
war'was begun by the act of Mexico?
Fourthly. Do you believe that, falling in oul
purpose of compelling Mexico to propose tC
surrender to us her province OF Tamauhpas
New Mexico, and Upper and Lower California
that, in word, as things now stand, '.wt
must" in the language of the Message before
us. "continue to occupy her country with on
troops, taking the full measure of indemnit.
into our hands, and must enforce the term
which our honor demands"
| Do you, or a majority of you, answer No t
each of these question, then we presentto yol
the true aud only remaining question whlc
YOU have to consider in reference to the turtle
prosecution of this war to the extent and i
the manner proposed in the message:
Are you willing to prosecute, indefinitely
this war against Mexico, at the cost OF hund
red millions of dollars and at least ten thou
sand lives a year, for the purpose OF vifldicdtfl
the consistency of the President! That Is IL
question.
