Giddings ON TAYLOR and Fillmore.

Il is well known to every one, who pretends to
know any thing at all about public men and public
matters, that the notorious Joshua r. Giddings is
one of the vilest abolitionists in the country. tits
very natural then to suppose that a man whose
fame, however infamous. rested upon the platform
of his enmity to the South and his brotherly affec-
ton for the colored population, would throw his
whole talents and influence into the contest, to de-
feat those Presidential candidates whose principles
were in direct opposition to his own. Giddings and
Fillmore were in Congress together, and will any
one of common sense and reason, however cement
ed he may be to party, pretend to affirm that Mr..
Giddings was not acquainted with the character and
political principles of Willard Fillmore7 1t would
seem, from his own words, that the wing candi-
date for the Vice Presidency was not the man TO
carry out his views, and that Gen. Taylor, like
wise, was equally obnoxious.
The Democrats have placed Mr.. Fillmore along
side of Giddlngs-one equally rabid as the other in
respect to abolitionism. We presume Mr.. Giddings
does not thank his Democratic friends for the zeal
they have evinced, in placing such a man as Fill
more alongside of him. This we premise to be the
case from the following extract of a speech deliver
ed by Mr.. GIddings at the Worcester Anti Slavery
Convention:
But Ohio, said he. stands where she ever did
and ever will as long as the planks Of the ship holds
together, an enemy to the extension of slavery. She
will not vote for the candidate of the Philadelphia
Convention, but for one opposed TO slave extension.
Taylor was the candidate ofSouth Carolina, and of
the Shareholders, and were they ever deceived in
their man. Never As for the candidate for the
Vice-Presidency, (Mr. FilImore) he remembered
that when chairman ofthe committee of Ways and
Means, he had reported a bill for paying a master
the value of a slave who escaped on board a British
Frigate in 1914! And then the Congress of the
United States had to sit higgling about the price of
the sinews and blood, the heart and brain of a man,
at MIR. Filmore's instancen'

Letter from Gen. Taylor.

BAToN RouGE, La. Aug. s, 1s4S.
My Dear Sr.-Youre esteemed letter Of the 9th
ult., enclosing a slip from the memphis Appeal, :"

said to have been made by me dsrespee,ful of the
volunteers; among others, that l had said then ,cere

together with many other evidences Of unkindness
towards them on my part; all of which is without
the slightest foundation. There is but little doubt
in m mind that he who invents a falsehood to in
jure his neighbor or fellow-citizen, as well as he
who lends himself to, and aids, in giving circulation
to the same, knowing it be false, would not hes
ltate one moment to swear it on the Holy Bible
My numerous official reports to the War Depart
ment, in relation TO the gallant and patriotic volnn-
teers, which have been SO extensively published in
most Of the leading journals ofthe country, give the

Extract of letter to the Picayune, dated Pasca.
gouIa, August 10, 1s48.
seen. Taylor family ard staff, Col. Bliss, arriv.
ed here last night and produced quite an excitement.
Anticipating his arrival, the ladies' staid up to greet
him. as well as many of his male admirers and
friends. The place was illuminated, and his recep-
ton very cordial. A delegation Of some hundred
gentlemen from Mobile arrived here this morning
to pay their deroirs to the General. At ii, A. NJ,
the hour appointed, the delegation assembled in
the drawing room, and amid a galaxy Of beauty.-
Col. Root, o fMobile, formerly Of the U. S. Army,
stepped forward, and, after shaking the "Old Hero
by the hand, said, General, / come unauthorized
by any committee, but voluntarily in behalf of my
fellow-citizens here assembled, 10 greet you, and to
tender to you our high admiration for the gallant
services you have rendered our country, and for the
brilliant victories ~yorhave added to the page of or
country $ history, as well as 10 pay our respect and
esteem to the ennobling qualities Of honesty and
virtue Of your private character as an individual. "
The scene was thrilingly interesting, and there was
not a heart within the room but beat with emotion,
when Gen. Taylor, nearly overcome by his feel
ings, took a step back fand replied nearly in the fol-
lowing words: "Sir. | thank you in behalf ofyour
fellow-cilizens ofMobile, here present, for the kind
manifestation of their feeling towards me and per.
init me TO say, sir, it is among the most cherished re.
collections OF m memory-one which my heart
cannot find words to give vent nor express-tha'
the citizens Of Mobile were among the first to fly to
the rescue Of my little band, which was at the time
SO seriously threatened ON the Rio Grande. The
alacrity with which they responded to their coun-
try call is worthy of the patriotism Of their gallant
State, the remembrance of which can never be ef
faced from my heart, nor the expression of their
feelings towards me, at the present moment, for
which Iagain beg you to tender them my warm.
est thanks" The citizens of Mobile were
then presented and introduced to Gen. Taylor. 1t
was a most imposing scene; and although feel /
have not done justice to the happy expressions Of the
General, yet he never was more happy in a reply,
nor was he more heartily greeted"

THE ELECTIONS.

KENTUCKY. ELEcTloNs.-The Louisville Journal
of the 10Th gives returns from seve%nty.nine eonn-
ties, and then says:
"In the above seventy mine counties, ff,y-hve of
which are official, Mr.. Crittenden's net gain on
Owsley's vote in 1914 is 3345. The twenty-one
counties to be heard from gave Butler a majority OF
272, Counting Boyd's majority in Fulton. a new
county, as Butler's) If these counties then give
the anne majority to Powell they gave to Butler,
Crittenden's majority in the State will be 1897
Nine ofthe twenty-one counties gave majoritles for
Owsley and twelve of them for Butler; four are in
the first Congressional District, one in the Second,
FIVE in the Fourth, eight in the Sixth, and three in
the Ninth"
NORTH CARoL1NA.-Better and Better.-The
Raleigh Register of the 10Th inst, says, we have re-
ceived the vote Of Cherokee county, since our last,
which gave Mr.. Manley 582 and Mr.. Reid 2l7-
Mr.. NJ majority there being 365. This increases
the total Wing majority toupwards oft,oelue hundred
votes, leaving Currituck to hear from, which will
probably reduce it to less than a thousand.
The Legislature, as before stated, is Wing by a
majority oftwo.
