Gen. Taylor and the Press.

Merely for the satisfaction of whgs in other sections of the Union, we publish the following classification of the whig press in Alabama, as to which of the two great champions--Gen. Fay Tor or Henry Clay-they prefer for the Presidency. We believe these are the only whig presses in the State, and as the fights have been waxing hotter and hotter, for the last few months, there has not been single one but has spoken out its senti- ments as regards that question:. At this state of the game, it is really amusing to witness the struggle for the supremacy. The democratic press stand as did the old matron, when she saw her husband and the bear fghting-don't care a d-n which whips. Here is the position, as the whig press now stands, each has his god-ideal floating at the head of their col umns:
The State guard., 1848-04-04
The Revenue Bill.

We regret exceedingly, to witness symp- toms of dissatisfaction among the citizens in some sections of the Stale, in relation to the Bill. It must be for a proper knowl- edge of the provisions of the Bill, as it does not bear comparatively but little heav- fer upon property holders, than the old Tax Law. The amount of Revenue like ly to be raised by the new law, it is cal culated by those who know, will not ex- ceed that raised under the old law, and consequently but very small amount more of taxes can be required to be paid now by property holders. than previous. The features of the present certainly bears more heavy upon itinerant professions than the old law, which will no doubt have a tendency to prohibit to some extent travel ling menageries, which are of no service to the settled population of the State. The taxes upon negroes and lands have only hccn changed in the mode of collection, and increased but very little if any, as il is with most of all other permanent property. This being the case, we cannot see any visible cause of dissatisfaction among the permanent population of the State.
 We are as much opposed to enormous taxation as any one, but the State of Ala bama has become indebted, the cause of which is not now to be looked to- and it should be the disposition of every citizen who calculates to make his future residence within her domains, to have that debt li- quidated as soon as possible, and learn to guard his actions in future from the past.
