In examining some old papers yester-
day, we accidentally came across a copy
of DIR. Bailey's National Era. dated July
8, l847, containing the editors comments
on Gen. Taylor's famous letter to the edi-
tor of the Cincinnati Signal. Were they
not So rery lengthy we would copy them
into the Torch Light, but rs the crowded
state of our columns will not ADM, ii at
ing an extract MISUNDERSTANDING the
use of our copy to those who look for the
Era as the fount Of all political wisdom
and advising all who have files Of the Era
to look up the document.
In the ''Signal editorial the following
passage occurs:
"The extension the continent beyond TIE
Rio Crande Of the Ordinance of 1877, is objscf
too high and pernsa "e"t to be bsfaed by Prcside"
tiaI uetoes." &c.
Gen. Taylor replies to the editor of the Signal
senfi,nens,' &c.
Dr. Bailey, in commenting on this pas
sage, among other things, says:
''Gen. Taylor is II man Of great prudence. and
his dispatches have always bee n marked by brew
iiy, percsion and thoughtfuiness. lie seems 10
we Ugh we'll his words. The declaration Just quo
ted therefore could hardly have been made with.
out a careful examination OF tho sc ntiments and
views thus empiiaiicaly endorsed"
1.-THE General, by his or" distinct aro~ai STANDS
committed IN Eapor Of JViinsot's Pforiso, aud a
gainst any exercise Of the Veto power, to thwart
the will Of a majority Of the representatives Of
the people,
So wrote the editor Of the Washington
Era, one year ago. But there was no,
then. any human probability that Gen
Taylor would be the candidate of the
Wings in the Presidential confest-and
the DR.. felt no hesitation in doing the Gen.
full and ample justice. Having been
nominated by the Wings, an adherence TO
the only rule Of action to which he has
ever long adhered consistent opposi-
ton to Wing men and measures. on all
occasions without regard TO the good sa-
crifced thereby-has compelled him to
take ground against the very man whom
he thus highly lauded-of whose election
there is to say the least. very strong hopes
and who he has admitted occupies the
true position on the one great question
now before the North. Can any one
doubt, that if Gen. Taylor had not been
nominated by the Wings. the Washington
Era would have continued to use such
languages
The Wings have frequently charged
the third party leaders with lactious OPP
position to their candidates. when they
kner that they very objects for which they
commended, would be accomplished by
acting with the Wings. as in the Presiden-
tial election of This charge they
have most Indignantly denied, at all times
and on all occasions. Yet, is not this
retrograde movement of the Era, one Of
series Of acts, all tending to prove this
assertion!

As the road TO the Hudson river, BY this line,
has progressed, and the portion to be built d.
minished by the extension Of the Fitchburq and

mind has manifested n strong desire TO obtain
