| THE IAn-AlIN FOX CID LACK
A mass meeting of the Carmen of New York
friendly TO Gen. TAYLOR Election was held at
Vauxhall Garden on the 9TH inst There was an
immense multitude of the Working men and Me-
chanics of the city present The meeting was
addressed by several distinguished speakers, and
among the number, by WILLIAM H. SEWARD
whose remarks thus sketched in the Tribune
He said the summons TO be here tonight found
him on the soil of Pennsylvania, laboring in the
Wing cause. There is no longer any need of New
York speakers at home, but help was needed in
| Pennsylvan a. We had told the Pennsylvanians
| that New York composed of fifty-six coun-
ties, and that she would give an average majority
of 1000 for each county for Zachary Taylor
| [cheers. or $4,000 for the State Every General
almost--Scott, Worth, and others, not forgetting
Pillow and Cushing, had been called to Washing
! ton, Taylor only excepted. We must cor
rect that, and call him to report for himself on
the 18th of March next.
He was not in favor of war, nor was he for
military canddates-but there was distinguish
ed fitness in electing Gen. Taylor. When recre-
ant civilians forget themselves and plunge the
country into war to subserve their own base pur-
poses, we may well select for the Chief Magis-
tracy, & hero who opposed the war and its au-
thors.
The country is now suffering from an excess of
importati ton. 1t is brought to the brink of an en-
barrasslnent similar to that of 1887. We must
rally to put down the Tariff of 1916, and with
MILLARD FILLMORE restore the principles of 1912
The interests of Free Soil is also involved in
this canvass. The Ordinance of 1897 hangs sus-
| pended the result of this election. If we elect
Gen. Taylor and Wing Congress, Congress will
send him bill prohibiting the extension of Slave
ry. and he pledges himself not to thwart the peo-
pie by the Executive veto. Should Lewis Cass
be elected, with Congress of his way of think
ing, he would not contemplate the result. This is
an era in our history Unless are arrest
ed in our downward career the early simplicity
of our Government will pass away or merge into
an Elective Monarchy, with an Executive veto to
override the National will 1t is Wing principles
we contend for in the election of Gen. Taylor.
Congress will command his respect-the Judicial
| ry his obedience. We are now losing sight of our
! Republicanism The whole politics of the coun-
! try turn on this question: What Gen Casss or
Gen. Taylor private opinioni is? The Executive
is becoming powerful that it is absorbing all
the other branches of Government. Elect Gen.
Taylor, and our Government will be restored to
its pristine purity and perfection.
We have some friends leaving us for guerrilla
party under MARTIN VAN buren,. These are
ancient and faithful friends but it is in moment
of frenzy that they are leaving us.
Suppose ace had refused to support Mr.. CLAW in
1914, we would have been doing what they are
now doing. Yet how much we would have been
and justly-condemned for our conduct had we
gone for James G. Birney in place of Mr. Clay
There can be but two parties. Is the Wing
party less faithful to Liberty and Humanity than
its opponents. They must succeed if the Wings
! fail. The nomination of Martin Van Buren, has
shivered his old party to pieces. 1t has ended the
Abolition party. The great Wing party remains
1t is not dead 1t has stood up in days of dark
ness and difficulty for the right, and has always
accommodated itself to the spirit of Humanity
and Universal Justice.
The proud party once rallying against us is
| disbanded and broken. 1t is gone, king, throne
and sceptre from its palace at Albany The wing
party is still the same. In the election of Taylor
and Fillmore, Fish and Patterson it will receive
renewed energy in its progress toward its noble
destiny.
| 1t will prove itself party faithful TO the Con-
| stitution, to benefcent REFORM to healthful pro-
gress to the Rights of mankind and the signs of
the times encourage in hopes that it is
speedily to become the great ruling party in the
destinies of glorious Republic.
If any of distinguished men have been
overlooked we may regret il, but when has it been
Observation-Disclosures, Cicero, Cato-all testify
that this has been too much the history of our
case The Sage of Ashland towers above his age,
his country and mankind Cheers.
Now is the time to establish Human Rights on
a basis that shall not be shaken. New England is
true to her hearts core. Pennsylvania, where the
god of Wealth sits enthroned in her gloomy cav
ems, is looking TO us for example.
/ If we ere only faithful now, true Democracy
will be established permanently among US, and
that party calling itself Democratic, which has
crushed beneath its feet the best interests of the
country, will be banished for ever from the coun-
ellis of TIE commonwealth.
