Of human action, than that is Of General Tay.

Taylor would make an example for the benefit
Of the army.
IS. He IS a man Of business habifs.-I never
have known General Taylor TO give up DAY TO
pleasure. | have never visited his quarters
without seeing evidences Of the industry with
which he toiled. II bis ialenied adiulani was
surrounded by papers, so was the General. And
though he would salute yisiter kinde, and bid
him with familiar grace amuse himself until
he was at leisure, he would never interrupt the
duties which his station called on him TO per
form. When these we're closed for the day, be
seemed to enjoy 10 a remarkable degree the vi
yacily Of young officers, and TO be glade 10 min
gle in their society.
"As a conversatonst, do not think General
Taylor possesses great power. He uses few
words, and expresses himself with energy and
force, but not huenty. His language is select.
would say, however. from my knowledge of
the man, that he is entirely capable Of producing
sny thing in the shape Of an order or letter
which has ever appeared over his signature, and
in saying so much, | understand myself as as
serling that he is a master Of his mother tongue
aud can write about as handsomely and effective.
ly as he eau fight. Such then is the picture Of
the man--not Of the General--who won my
esteem. | am not in the habit of eulogising
men, and have INDUCED on this occasion, be-
cause desired to describe to you with the ex-
actness Of truth, these qualities which, combin-
ed in General Taylor, made him appear to me
as first rate model Of an American character.
Others will dwell upon the chivary he has so
often displayed, and bis greatness so conspicu-
ousy illustrated on the field Of baule; formed
my ideas OF the man when he was free from
duty and had no motive to appear in any other
light than such as was thrown upon him by
nature, education and principles"

GEN. TAyLoR AND SLAVERY EXTENSION
Evidence is daily accumulating that Gen. Tay-
Tor can be trusted by the North, on the Free
Soil question. In addition to the direct pro.
mise he has made, and which no one doubts he
will faithfully keep, Of not interfering with the
constitutional legislation of Congress, by the
use Of the veto, we have several direct stale
ments from persons who have couversed with
him on the subject, that he is opposed TO the ex.
tension Of slavery. The Hartford Conn. Cou.
rant, adds to this eyidsnce as follows:
We have every reason TO believe, therefore,
that General Taylor will carry out the will of
the people as expressed by their representatives
in Congress, and thar he will approve of bill
the introduction o. slavery into new
territory if such an one should be presented to
him. We had written thus far, when a gentle.
man entered our Office who has recently had a
long and interesting conversation with Gen.
Taylor at Raton Rouge. He informs US that the
old hero expressed himself freely and fully in
opposition 10 The admission Of slauery into terri.
tory HOt0 free. Our informant is a. Northern
man and was formerly resident Of this city,
Will the advocates Of free soil sustain a man
whose expressions give assurance that his views
correspond with their own; or will they, merely
because he halls from the South, refuse him
their support and engage in an opposition, which
II II accompshes anything, will end in the elec.
ton of General Cass, who is pledged to uetO the
WiLmOt ProviSO, and whose past life has shown
that he would in all probability embroiI us in a
war with England or some other country.

To the Patrons Of the Free Press.

Pursuant to an arrangement with Messrs. COL
lier & Porter, the undersigned has consented to
undertake once more the editorial conduct Of the
Free Press. When,a few monthsago, he resigned
the place to which he is now about to return, it
was not certainly with the expectation that he
would bo called upon to resume it in so short a
time; neither was it with any fixed purpose to
renounce the tripod" forever, but with disPo-
sition to act in reference thereto in accordance
with whatever might appear to be his duty. If
he should consult his own inclination, he would
not quit the "cool sequested vale" for'hepublic'
exposed, arduous and responsible calling OF a
political editor; brief experience having taught
him that the position here, is by no means env'a'
BILE.
His return at this time is not rendered any
