SETTLE HIM UPON THE CONSTITU-
TlON

The Locos,t hrOugh the canvass ust closed,
undCYGn since the result became known, bad
and have good deal to say against the
Wings because they presented the people no
"paItorm." The Philadelphia Convention,
say the wise men of the Locotnco party, u
dnpted no Platform, and Gen. Taylor comes
into Office without a single profession by
which 10 be guided. ave- srg
This matter was very we'll disposed of by
IN anecdote 10 which (leu. CHARLES IiUpsON
gave currency in one ofhis addresses in Mas
sachusctts, and which, we think, WAS printed
in The Statesman. II ran somewhat thus: -
The people in one Of tic towns in the old
Bay State about settling minister, aud he
ing pretty web satisfied with candidate to
whose preaching they lad listened some
weeks, gave linn "a call and adopted pro-
ceedings preliminary To ordination. Upon
the committee appointed to examine the cam
didntc more closely in matters Of faith, was
"a quondam ship-inaser, unused To theoogi-
cal investigations. The matter of"plattorlns''
came up for the consideration of this com-
nittee, and its members Saving the sea cap
tnin) had some difference of opinion as TO
which "ptallorm."--the Sa, brook or the
Cambridge.--thcy should settle the new pas
tor upon. They appealed 10 the sea captain
whose prompt response was, 81 care nothing
about your plutforms-SeHic him 'tpon The Con-
Siiitition."
The only Presidents who were settled upo
the Baltimore "platforn,'' were Jackson, Van
Buren, aud Polk, and they all made bad work
with their Office before they got Through

We're settled upon the Constitution, and Gen.

Gen; Taylor In CANADA. The Kingston
"Brltsh Wing" of Saturday thus speculares:
u, "it would appear by our TeIegraphic Re-
port, That Gen. Taylor has been elected Pres
ident Of The United States of America. Pri-
or 10 the election the hopes off he Wing pnr
~ were very strong, and it is seen by The re-
suit that their hopes were well founded. We
hardly know whether we should congratulate
tile country on this elcvationof General Tny-
Tor or not. He himselfis an esiinable man.
and his party is composed of nearly nil the
weulth aud intelligence ofthe Union. but on
the other baud, that party is, and ever has
heen opposed 10 a low Tariff and the intro
duction of British goods. The cry is Protec-
tim for native productions. Whereas Gen.
Cass aud the Democrats, although opponents
in speech TO Great Britain and her interests,
have always advocated low Tariff and Free
Trade. Thus while the Wings speak the
fairest TO Great Britain, and treat her with
the utmost courtesey, they CLOSE the ports TO
