GEs. TAYLOR ~ CANADA.-The Kingston Br-
tl.h Wing Of Saturday thus speculstcs
Il would appear by our Teiegr-phc Report that
General Taylor has been elected President OF the United
states Of America. Prior the election the hopes of the
Wig party were very strong and II u seen By the
result that their hopes were well founded We hardly
know whether W. should congratulate IN" country on
this elevation u General Taylor or not. llc himself
Is an esumable man. and his party IA composed Of
nearly al the wealth and Intelligence Of the Union but
the other had that party H. and ever has been op
posed low Tarin and the Introduction OF British
goods The cry Is Protection for native productions
Whereas General Csss and the Democrats. slthou Oh
opponents In speech 20 Great Britain and her interests
have always advocated low Tarif and Free Trade
Thus while the Wing. speak the srest % Great Britain
and treat her with the utmost courtesy they close the
ports 20 her merchandise and manufactures while the
Democrats furious in denunciaton aud threatening
war every instant nevertheless freely admit and
sume the commodities Of the nation they provoke.
