Gen. Taylor has repeatedly said that I" IL
elected President, he would be the President
of the whole country, and not party merely"
For this he is ridiculed by the same men who
Justly applauded Gen. Jackson for writing a
lette, to James Monroe in 1916, of which the
following is an extract
Every thing depends Oh the selection; par
ty and party feeling should be avoided. Now
is the time to exterminate that monster party
spirit. By selecting characters most consplc-
uous for their probity, virtue, capacity, and
firmness. aoithout regard to party, you will 60
far to, if not entirely eradicate those feelings
which on former occasions threw so many OBJ
stacles in the way of Government, and, per-
haps, have the pleasure and honor of uniting
the people heretofore politically divided
The Chief Magistrate of a great and power
full nation should never indulge in party feel
ings. His conduct should be liberal and dis
interested, always bearing in mind that he
acts for the whole and not part of the COM
munity. BY this course you will exalt the ma
tional character, and acquire for yourself a
name as imperishable as monumental marble.
Consult no party in your choice; pursue the
dictates of that unerring judgment which has
so long and often benefited our country,
and rendered conspicuous its rulers. These
are the sentiments ola friend; they are the
feelings, if know my own heart, of an undis-
sembled patriot.

A HUMBUG.

Nh. BLISS BY publishing in the Tribune
the following ''receipt for Washing" you
will confer a favor upon the community, and
| trust, prevent others from being humbugged
by man who is, presume too lazy to Ia
Dor for living, and who is peddling them
around the country under the false pretence
Of having a patent for it. / have known the
" receipt" for many years. 1t is very ca
sy way to clean clothes, and it is thought by
many who have tried it a good way to ,oear
them out as the turpentine tends to rot them.
| would further state for the benefit of the Ia
dies, if your hands are not perfectly sound,
keep them out of this composition. Other
papers in this region would prabably prevent
their readers from being imposed upon by
publishing. A FRIEND.
To quart soft soap or one pound of hard soap
put three table spoon-fulls of spirits of Turpentne
of which take third, and make a suds as warm
as you would generally use 1t for washing; put in
your white clothes, and let them soak fifteen min
utes not more, renee them In cold water then take
another third of your soap and Turpentine, and
make another cold suds in your boiler-put the
clothes in when cold let them boil half an hour;
not more; renee again in cold water and they are
done-serve colored clothes in like manner except
boiling; and do not dispose OF this receipt III any

MARTIN VAN buren,.

We clip the following from the Albany E.
vening Journal, and publish it for the special
benefit of our anti-slavery friends:
sThe extent to which | have sustained it
Tslayeryl in the various stations have occu-
pied is known to the country. | was at the
time well aware that l went farther in this re-
spect than many of my best friends could ap-
prove. But, deeply penetrated by the convic-
ton that Slavery was the only subject which
could endanger our blessed Union CD | was
determined that no effort on my part, within
the pale of the Constitution, should be want
ing to sustain its compromise as they were
then understood, and it is now a source OF
consolation to me that pursued the course
then adopted.
Mr.. Van Buren, sanctioned the Atherton
gag.
Mr.. Van Buren, went with the South to ex-
clude abolition petitions.
Mr.. Van Buren,, when Vice President,
gave his casting vote in favor of the bill to
rob the mails and burn all abolition papers
found South of the Potomac.
Mr.. Van Buren, gave his casting vote fol-
the bill which provided for the removal OF
any post master guilty of allowing Anti Slave
~ papers to 60 into the mail.
MIR Van Buren, solemnly volunteered a
pledge to veto any bill in favor of abollshing
Slavery in the District of Columbia.
Mr.. Van Buren, ordered the Marshal of Con-
necticut to surrender up the Amistad negroes
to an officer of the navy, that they might be
sent back into slavery.
Mr. Van Buren, instructed our Foreign
Minister to prevent Mexico from entering up
on a crusade against Cuba, lest it should lead
to the Emancipation of the slaves OF that ISL
and.
Mr.. Van Buren, wrote letter In favor Of
the election of Polk.
Mr.. Van Buren,, and his barnburner friends
elected Polk, voted to annex Texas, approved
the War, and stood up to the Conquests OF
New Mexico and California.
Mr. Van Buren, now knows that if Polk
had not been elected, Texas would not have
been annexed, there would have been no war
no sacrifice of human life, and no danger OF
slavery extension.
Where Whigs are to extract consolation
from when they cast their votes for Van Blu.
rem, we cannot immagine. 1t may afford them
satisfaction to know that by so doing they as
sist Cass and injure their own party but
that either their heads or tn eirconclences VII
approve their conduct, we will not believe.
| Itwould be some 90 consolation" TO know
that Van Buren, had repented of some of III;
vile acts. But so far from this, as recently
as June last, he had the effrontery to assert
| that IS it is now a source of consolation to me
that pursued the course then adopted.

We would invite particular attention to the
following extract from Washington letter in
the New York Tribune, which presents a new
phase of Barnburnerism:
The nomination of Mr.. Van Buren, by the
Buffalo Convention has excited no attention what
ever BY the way, there have been letter. receiv-
ed in this city from leading Barnburners. which
would make the Van Buren, men, par croelleaoe,
and the Wings swear some, should they be made
public Some of the Government officers who
hold the most lucrative places in the North and
who are supporting Mr.. Van Buren, have lately
written to gentlemen in this city, that they Were
supporting Van Buren, to divide the WING party.

We would call the attention Of our readers

We would call the attention of our readers
to the resolutions of the Wing Congressional
Convention, which will be found on our first
page to-day. The resolution upon the SUBJ
Ject of Slavery expresses fully the sentiment
OF the Wing party on that point. Such are
the principles which have ever guided them
as party, and which governed them in oppo-
sing Van Buren's mail gag-such were the
principles which caused the Hon. JOHN O.
ADAMS, and the Wings generally, to advocate
the right of petition-Such were their motives
In opposing the annexation of Texas and the
election of James h. Polk-such Were the
motives which caused them to defeat the re-
cent Compromise bill, and also to prevent the
introduction of Slavery in Oregon-such are
the reasons why they have opposed Martin
Van Buren, and now oppose Lewis Cass, and
such are the principles with which we are
willing to stand or fall. - We hope they may
receive careful and attentive perusal. They
are not newly manufactured Wing principles
They ever have been, and we trust ever will
be the principles of the Wing party upon the
subject of Slavery.

~ From the statements of the one eyed

entire South is under the influence of the Ma
gicians wand. We see accounts of Van Bu-
rem meetings and expressions in his favor in
nearly every Slave State in the Union. II is
quite as natural that Slave holders should
claim hun for their candidate, as those who
profess opposition to Slavery. Judging from

ALARMING MALADY.-A correspondent OF
he Albany Evening Journal, writes from
Greece, Chenango county, n. V, states, that
in two weeks "a deaths had occurred in that
village, from some strange disease that baf
fled the skill of all the physicians in Binq-
hampton, Oxford and Norwich.-He adds :
1t is very gloomy times here. The bells do
not toll, as the effect upon the sick is bad
Several families have fled to the mountains.
CURE FOR DIsENTERY.-This dangerous
disease has been very prevalent the present
season in the Middle and Eastern states
hence any preparation, harmless in itself,
likely to be made remedy, ought to be made
public. With this view, we would state
that the Boston Transcript prescribes tea
made from the green leaves of the peach tree
as very efficatious. A friend of the Boston
Rambler offers the following as an "unfaik
ing cure In one pint of fourth-proof BRAN
dy put one ounce Of ground Bayberry root and
half an ounce of ground myrrh. Take a Ia
bic spoonful every two hours.
FRANCE.-Two thousand of the insurgents
of June have been sentenced to transporta-
ton, and have been sent to Brest L'Orjent.

~ Since our last publication, the citizens
of Mineral Point have been again warned to
prepare for the exigency of FIRE. This, we
believe is the third time, during the last year,
that an alarm of fire has occurred in some pub
lie house in this place. Fortunately howev-
er, it has each time been discovered in season
to be extinguished before its ravages had OBJ
tanned point beyond control. AS these gen
tie admontions do not appear to cause pre-
paratioG for time of need, we would. advise
our citizens to avail themselves of the securi-
ty afforded by Insurance Companies.

The MoRMoNs.-These poor, prosecuted
creatures are combating with all kinds of af-
fictions in Oregon. A plague of crickets
has visited the Mormon plantations on the
praries, and destroyed the crops which the pi-
oneer emigrants had planted for their follow
ers. The crickets have devoured the crops
like locusts. In consequence of this calaln-
ity the Mormons that arrived at Salt Lake,
finding themselves withou; supplies, killed
their working cattle for food, and sent to the
United States Forts for bread. The party of
emigrants on Platte River had plenty Of pro-
visions.
