STARTLING DEVELOPMENTS, f,

The Washington Union of Friday last, publishes
a letter from gentleman in New Haven, Connecti-
cut In which is stated that Senator Baldwin of that
State has in his possession copy of private letter
from Gen. Taylor, in which Gen. Taylor pledges
himself that he will not veto any measure that has
passed both Houses of Congress, AND ALLuDEs PAR
TIcuLARLY THE W1LMoT PRov1so." The origin
al of this letter is said to be in the possession of Will
liam G. Bates, of Massachusetts,, of the Dele
gates from that State the Whig National Conven-
ton. Senator Baldwin and Truman Smith both have
copies of this letter. and they said be exhibiting
it privately, for the purpose of influencing Connecti-
cut Wings to, drop Van Buren, and Adams, and 90
for Taylor and Fillmore. They permit no copies to
be taken.
The New Haven Journal, the organ of the Wings
of Connecticut, being doubtless aware of the exis-
tence of this letter, says: 1--WE have all confidence
that the moment Congress shall pass law to cir
cumscribe the "Un'nitigated curse" within the limits
of the Constitution interpreted by Daniel Webster
and others of our soundest Northern men, THAT MO-
MENT SUCH A BILL WILL RECEIVE TAYLoRs SIGMA

pull down his name from paper.''
