The tseo last letters from Gen. Tavlor

OF trouble and fiealty in the Whig camp., Tn one
of these letters, il svilsbe remembered the o,d Co.
erai says heSss not party candidate and that too
after he had :. cordially accepted the Wbio noo;
nation; and in the other he says he would have run
as the Democratic nominee if he had had the chance
Now, such this renders his position at once so sor
ryand ridiculous that the Register endeavors, by bold
charges and special pleading to relieve the old een-
tleman andit first states that these rperes
'' cOntemptibl orgeries but knowing that every
body will not believe that it next proceeds to admit
that they genune and to show that they are lust

Gen. Taylor ought to have written ~ ss'a i4'<'
"Forgeries - indeed! Why, how could that be !?
One of these letters is from the Charleston News
Taylor paper and who can suppose for one moment,
that such paper, printed inthe full blaze of the ins
tellect of Charleston, and edited by gentlemen could
publish a forgery upon Gen! Taylor The other
letter was directed to Mr. George Lippard Of Phiia
delpha. This is pronounced to be forgery also,
by the New York Express, the paper quoted by the
Register and now let9s how plain tale'' will
put that down. Mr. Lippard himself eo1es foraOard,
an a C9rd tn the Pennsylvanian, to- establish tie fact
that The letter IS genuine He says: aa1aas -
IS These are the facts of the case :-On the 5th of
July last wrote to Gen. Taylor, and asked him to
write me line to this effect % am not ercklsiveiy
party candidate" With this letter other documents
Were forwarded, sufficient to show the General that
with many others, supported him, not as Whig,
but as the candidate of the whole people. 60
ou may Judge how Strong was his indignation al
being, tor moment, supposed to be party candi-

So much for the sentiments of Gen. Taylor. With
regard to those persons in New York, who either
mean to pronounce me Forger or to say that Zacha
ry Taylor forged has letter, not word is
sary. ~ They know that the letter is genuine At all
events. they know it by the simplest exertion-
/ by calling on, or writing to the person to whom il
addressed Instead of doing this, they pronounce
the letter g forgery, and, of course take the
sponsibity of eating their words of proving them
! will give Messieurs Mirror and Erpress a rea
sonable time to do either, and in they fail, viii
take the only course of honorable in the pre-

What do you say now, Mr.. Register9 "Forge

nouneed the celebrated Signal letter forgery, and
said it could have emanated from buta ssknave'

to prove that letter oneof the brightest particular

By the way, when does the Register expect to pub

does it refuse? Keep it before the people that Wing
