 0T As yet we know nothipglof sGener- al Taylor--his notions upon political sub jects remain yet a sealed book to the eyes of the American people, from whom he is claiming suffrage for one of the most im- portant offices in their gift. He has given no opinions upon any question, with the exception of the Veto Power, and on that he says, she would not exercise that high ,pcrogatiye,'' and anything that anna jority of Congress would do he would sanction, as that action expressed the wish of the people. Now we would, ask every candid and impartial man, if this is not apledge If Congress was to estab- lish similar doctrine to the Wilmot Previ. so, he would sanction itq What other charitable conclusion can we come to F. This one fact is enough for Democrats to know!!

MT. Yancey's speech.

In another colum will be found the sub stance ofthe speech of the Hon. Wm. L. Yancey, delivered in the Council Room in this City on Saturday last at the ratif- cation meeting. The Room was densely crowded with men of both parties, and much to the delight of the whigs there present, did MT. Yancey denounce Gen Class and the Baltimore convention, as unworthy his support. This is the point in Alabama, at which MT. Yancey has heretofore commanded the greatest res. pect of the Democratic party. But his new position meet with but little favor on Saturday, (except from the whigs) as may be seen by a reference to the resolutions adopted by the meeting, more especially when it will be recollected that the resol- utions were passed unanimous. We are now satisfied. MT. Y. has entirely severed himselffrom the great Democratic party during the canvass of ls4s, when his DO werful talent was most needed. Let him go, we say, the Democratic party of Alabama can and will carry the State for CASS and BUTLER without Mir. Y's. support. We have neither the time or space this week to give his remarks and his position that attention which we should. In our next we will attempt to show his untenable position-the circumstances attending his instructions to the Balti- more convcntion-where they come from, and what were the intention of the said instructions,up on which he bases his pre- sent position. peL

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS IN

tr We missed the figure considerable in our last where we said that there ''were some thirteen different Democratic papers in different sections of the state" Instead of thirteen, they are some twenty one or two, which have hoisted the Cass & But Ter flag, thus giving more strength to our good cause than we were aware of in Alabsma.

G We were favored during last week, by our friend Enslen. with a portion of a delightful Watermelon. fully ripe. This is the first that we have seen this season, which speaks well for the industry and horticultural skill of Mir. Enslen. "A few more of the same sort" would not be bad to take in these days of the rage of political fever. Before eating this mellon, we were rather dubious of Cass' election, but alterwa rds we become satisfied, and now make the emphatic prediction that Gen. Taylor cannot be elected and that the Ball for Gen. Class will roll like a tornado from one end of the Union to the other. ia..v if s3n a si4.ssii iB..eiiaJ

( Duties of Husband.

The following is capital and much.needed
string of advice. We extract from a late sketch
by T. S. Arthur:
EVERYWHERE in books of domestic economy, in
tales essays, newspaper paragraphs, and in current
conversation, do we hear teraed and reiterated he
lesson of a WOmans duties to her husband and in
her household. She must have everything in order,
and study the art of pleasing her lord seduously
if he were the most captious, exacting tyrant in
the world. And, verify, in his small way, he is
too often miserable tyrant. woman is expect
ed to be perfect III everything, and to do every
thing. No allowance is made for the i-health
consequent upon her maternal duties, nor for the
peculiar wearying and all-engrossing nature of
the cares attendant thereon But who writes and
talks of the husbands duties Who teaches him
lessons of forbearance, patience and kind consider
alton of his overtasked wife Little is said on this
score; the world goes on, and huudreds go down
to the grave years before their time, and no
one dreams that their husbands are accessories to
their DEATH But it is even Not in maternal
duties alone lies the of the wie's pale face
and dropping form-but the over tasks of her pecu-
har position. She is worked too hard-harder than
a slave in the cotton field. Too often, she is nurse
and seamstress for hafa dozen Children and super
lntendent of her household besides. She will bend
over her needle, night after night, in pain suf-
terlng from lasstude, while her husband sits enjoy
ing his volume by her side, not dreaming that it
is his duty, in order to his wife from toll be-
You'd her strength to proong his labors, if that be
necessary in order to afford her the assistance re-
quired in meeting the thousand wants of her chill
dren and household If there are any extra tasks
to perform-ary extra exertion to make, the hlls-
band is the one WHO should perform or make them,
not the wife, for he has superior strength.
We hear a great deal about the husband coming
home, weared, from his store, his counting room,
his office or his Workshop and the wife is repeat
eddy enjoined to regard him on this account, and
to provide comfort, quietude and repose for him at
home. This is all well enough, and she should do
so as far as lies in her.power But we doubt if as
many men come home over-wearied with toll to
their wives, as come home to wives who are them
selves overWearled.
Husbands if YOU love your wives, think of these
things. Don't say that the story suits Mr. So-and-
so admirably. Look narrowly into your own say
ngs and dongs home, and see if it does MT suit
You In more than one particular.

STEAMBOAT AccIDNT.--The steamer Harka-
way, lately destined for Cincinnati, with large
cargo entered the canal at Louisville, on the 18th
inst, and after proceeding through far as the
stone bridge, more than half way, it was found
she had three feet water in her hold and was sink
ing fast. 1t is supposed that the hole in her hull
was caused by her running against rock on the
side of the canal. The pumps were Immediately
set to work and the hole sufficiently stopped up to
enable her TO come through. The cargo consisted
of coffee and molasses, and her clerk thinks that
about one thousand sacks of coffee were under
water.
