without New York, if they desired to abandon
the Democratic party.
MIR. Morse, of Louisiana, spoke against the
rule. He said il had before been the means OF
Disappointing the Democracy, and it might
now be the means of springing some new out
slider upon the people, and then farewell to De-
mocracy.
Mr.. Morse explained that he meant no dis
respect to Mr.. Polk.

commenced deligeringpoliueal speeches which
are saturated with The very gall Of Loeoloco-
ism. consistency, thou art indeed jewelH'
Mr.. Smith in his speech on Saturday night
remarked that Gen, Taylor was honest, ard
magnauimous; this VIZ regard as no conees-
sion, for no honest man dare say to the con-
trary. But the gentleman called Gen. Taylor
an ignorant man, and asserted that it was ig-
norance that dictated his "Signal %letter;'' such
a charge / unhesitatingly deny. Gen. Taylor
instead Of being ignorant, is well informed,
and possesses one Of the strongest and best
inlellecGs of the age. No man whose mind
was inferior, whose judgment was weak, and
whose information was limited, could have
sustained himself under such trying circum-
stances as those which encompassed Gen .
Taylor during bis glorious career in Mexico.
Gen. Taylor an ignorant man! Why the idea
is loolishly absurd, and the only excuse |
could think Of as sufficient in warranting Mr..
Smith in using SO singular an expression, was
the surmise that he was SO much absorbed with
his effort TO get back into the good graces''
of the LocofOco party, that he lost his usual
self-control, and during the excitement Of the
moment, became unconscious Of what he was
saying. This suspicion was somewhat quick
ened BY the fact that in another portion Of his
speech he uttered against Henry Clay a severe
tirade-he called him i%nsolent, aud said that
he reloiced in his overthrow; he also spoke
contemptuously Of the visit which that emf
nent statesman, paid last summer to the East.
ern cities; and in describing some Of the bril-
liant receptions that every where greeted him,
Mr.. Smith used language which was no. only
undignifed, but also in extreme bad taste. In
short, go violent was his attack upon the char
acter of Henry Clay, and 50 bitter his revilings
against him, that | began to imagine that | was
again in the midst Of the scenes Of 1914, when
the demons Of party kindled around that noble
patriot the fiery fame of personal abuse.
When the vulgar and the reckless spent upon
him their malice and attempted TO drag him
from his proud eminence, down TO their own
deep abyss Of misery and degradation. Blu
| must forbear; I fear that / have already said
too much | had forgotten that Mr.. Smith at
the close Of his speech had used a threat
had forgotten how frightened | was, how my
knees knocked together, how my lips wbiten-
ed and how my heart went " pit a pat" when
the speaker sin all the majesty of his strength
declared in substance " that whoever should
dare to c%riticise his speech, and should lug into
the public prints any Of his private convcrsa-
tons, he would make him answer as becometh
q man." The might have said " as becometh a

Ihave not seen or heard Of a single wing on
my journey who has declared De intention to
vote for Gen. Cuss. / have heard Of some
very jealous friends Of MIR. Clay who are dis
satisfied with the nomination of Taylor, but
will vote for him. have couvsrsed with some
Of these who expressed the opinion that lay
lor is stronger before the people than Mr. Clay
though they preferred the latter.
From what | have seen and heard, ! think
that there is pretty much the same kind Of
feeling for Gen. Taylor, among the people
now, that there was for Gen. Harrison IN
1910. If am correct in this opinion, there
can be no doubt of his election.
The Hon. John ], Crittenden, the wing can
didate for Governor Of Kentucky, is out on
the canvass as you will see in the newspapers
lie is making a wonderful impression wherev'
er he goes. Governor Morehead told me that
Mr.. Crittenden recently made a speech to
about one thousand people, and such was the
enthusiasm which be excited thattwo hundred
Of these followed him in solid column to thu
next place at which he was to speak, some
twelve miles distant,
ltis thought that Mr. Crittenden will receive
a larger majority for Governor than has been
received by any candidate for that Office in
Kentucky, for many years. And from the in.
d~ications Of public feeling in his favor ! SHOULD
not be surprised to see him elected Preslden'
Of the United States, in the year 1852, by al
overwhelming majority. VOX
