Grs. TAyLoR's VIEWS on THE TAmrr.-
\ late number Of the DanriHe Democr0t, says:
" We have been favored with the subjolned
extract of recent otter from John Buehler,
F.sq, of Baton Rouge, La, the present resi-
dence of Gen. Taylor, to gentleman in this
town, who formerly resided in the same place.
Mr.. b. is a gentleman of great responsibility
and high standing, who would scorn to say
anything which he did not believe to be strict
ly the truth, and is moreover personally ac-
quainted with Gen Taylor, whom he states to
be a good Tariff man. Wha, Mr.. b. means
by this, may be seen by porusing the ex-
tract
"The repeal Of the Tariff of 1912, by the
act of 1916, has been most ruinousto the coun-
try, and particularly to the sugar planters OF
Louisiana, and unless we can get some change
in the Tariff for protection, i must break up
many planters, who have but recently com-
menced the culture of sugar. feel, OF course
much interest in the approaching Presidential
election. Ny choice of all men, is Mr. Clay,
if there is any probability of getting him. II
not, / should be very much pleased to have
Gen Taylor, whom know personally to be a
GOOD WIG, AND TARIFF Man, as recently
had the pleasure of hearing him express. views
on this subject. ! think, beside, he is the only
Wing that can get the vote OF this State.

6eralo Of tbe Qimes
RHODE ISL AND { R;
NEWPORT.

The NoMiN ATIoNs $50 far as we can
Judge by the general sentiment of the Wing
press and of numerous ratification meetings in
the Atlantic States, the nominations of TAY-
LoR and FILLMORE have been very cordially
received and degree Of unanimiiy attained in
the Wing ranks, which, previous to the Con-
vention, we could have hardly vrnturcd to pre-
dict. In the city Of New. York, and in some
portions of Massachusetts, symptoms Of discon-
tent ard of an organized opposition to the reg
ular nominations have been manifested, and
even Conventions called to cmbody this feeling
in new ticket, with no other expectation, we
can conceive, than of frustrating choice by
the electors and transferring the election of
President to the House of Representatives.
All this we hold to be entirely wrong in prin-
ciple in all who participated in the General
Convention, and certainly as measure oipollcy
in the highest degree suicidal. We can under
stand and respect the ardent attachment to Mr.
Clay, which, under severe disappointment, finds
vent for its wounded sensbity and regret al
the extinction of long cherished hopes, an the
proceedings at New York.
But we arc persuaded that this mode oiman-
ifesting them will not be approved by Mr.. L.
that he will be the very first man to take the
course indicated by infoxbe principle, and TO
make the generous sacrifice of all personal OBJ
iec,s and hopes, which in so many instances,
it has been his peculiar glory to exhibit in the
evcntiul career now about to be terminated
Indeed it is said, THAT Il letter has already been
received from Mr.. Clay, bya gentleman IN
New York, who does not feel authorized to
publish it, counselling aprompt and cheerful
,cquiescencc in the proceedings of the Conven-
ton at the moment of writing made known to
i'm.

TuE LoAS AND GovERNMESr FINAScEs.-
4 letter from Washington TO the Commercial
Advertiser, gives the following information
respecting the financial wants of the govern
ment -
The Secretary oflhe Treasury, Mr.. Walker,
has today stated that tins is certainly the last
loan he should require to meet all the present
and prospective demands upon the treasury,
and that no more than the current revenues
will hereafter be required. lie has recently
made "A careful examination of the subject,
and after making due allowance for the amount
to be paid to Mexico, and Tor the transporta-
,ion Of supplies and pay the troops, DC, he
feels confident that no moro loans will bc need
ed.
The three millions to be paid to Mexico have
already been forwarded there by our govern
ment aud most of that SUN has already been
met hero by the Treasury. These facts are
certainly very important and show tha, the
government finances arc much easier than has
been gcucra'ly supposed.
