GEN. CkSS
and his enormous Extra expenses

The following letter from the Hon.
Andrew Stewart, member of Congress
from Western Pennsylvania, exhibits II
its true light the character Of the err a
ALLOWANCES claimed by and paid to Gen,
Cass, while in the service Of the Gene
raj Government. Mr.. Stewart makes
these statements under his own proper
name, and gives the official evidence on
which they are based
To the Editors of the Nat. 1ntelligencer
Gentlemen: My attention has just
been called TO two late numbers OF the
"Union'' IN which the editor has devo-
ted ten columns, with the Pr omiSe Of
moro, to the examination Of my late
speech in relation to Gen Cass's extra
paw. This is a compliment | hardly ex-
pected from the editor of the Union, and
ana exceedingly sorry that have gwen
him so much trouble and uneaslness
have not time just now to read, much
less to comment on these ten columns of
editorial abuse; but, since Mr.. Richie
questions the truth Of my statements in
regard to Mr.. Cass's extra pay, will re-
fer him to an authority, of which he
seems to be ignorant, but will not dare
to controvert. refer him to President
Folks message of 18th August last. Now
I charged Gen Cass with taking, while
Governor of Michigan and ex-oflicio
Superintendent of Indian Affairs, SOD,
S6546 extra pay, over and above the
amount of his legal anu fixed salary of
$4,000 year, Now, assert that this
message, sent in by President Polk in
obedience to resolution of the House,
with the documents appended, sustain
and establish every dollar and cent |
have charged against Gen. Cass. They
do more; they show that Gen. Cass re-
ceived as Marshal of Ohio and Minister
of France 6,70S.65 over and above
the amount of his salaries and his outfit
and return, which, regarded as extra,
will make his extra pay sol ,57l.11, and
his regular and extra pay, together,
$751; 31 40 Now, if my charging
Gen. Cass with taking $64.165.46 extra
pay is Justly denounced by Mr. Richie
and his other venal followers as "villiti-
cation and SANDER" of Mr.. Cass, what
will they now say of Mr. Polk, who
makes it much worse than | did, What

General Taylor has ever pursued III,
same course, and just before The battle o
Bue ma Visa, found time to write a long lie
ter TO his business agent, in which was rEer
toned the most minute particulars of tn,
manner to carry on his plaAta,ion.
Washngton's fame; on its first incepto
called forth the admiration Of the miltar,
chie(lains OF Prussia, Frederick the Grea
being loud in his approbaton.
Stephens the traveller ellis that while a
Berlin, Baron Humbolt Informed him the
present King of Prussia and his military
council had with the greatest interes, follow
ed General Taylor through his whole route
on the Rio Crande, and fully appreciated
his difficulties at Buena Vista.
General Washington was remarkable for
reading at once tie character of those he
came in contact with, and of putting true
estimate on their va!ne.
All who have intercourse with Gen. Tay
lor bear witness OF hls astonishing knowl-
edge of men, and of his true estimate o
character.
General Washington would only accept
Of the Presidency independent and un,ram
me led.
Gen. Taylor has repeatedly in writing
on the same subject, almost used General
Washinelon's expressions, from mere
similarity of thought and feeling
"Should it become absolutely necessary
for me to occupy the station to which your
letter pre-supposes me, (the Presidency,
| have determined to 90 into it perfectly
free from all engagements OF every nature
whatsoever" WASHINGTON to LafycNe
sIf elected to the Presidential office ii
must be without any agency Of NINE own,
and to those duties must 90 untrammelcd
bv party pledges of every character. -

or propriely, say TO yon, that most heart

Gen. Liacoln.
".And could he be elected, (some one
more experienced in State affairs y | would
not say tina, would yield my pretensions,
for have not the vanity to believe that
have any for that distinguished station, but
would acquiesce no, only with pleasure in
such aran5 eme6t, but would rejoice hat the
Republic had selected ci zen more wor-
thy and better qualified than am; to dis
charge the important duties apper;aiuing 10
that position, and no doubt there are thou
sands.''-Ge". Taylor to j. Il. MgersoH.
The striking parallel between General
Washington and Cen Taylor could he con
tinued' bu, the subsequent events OF Gener-
al Taylor's life will complete the resem-
blauce, by placing him in the same high
civil office where he will WELD similar
