PHoNoeRAPHY There is great effort making
in certain quarters to cry up photography, as
system of shorthand reporting, and the most
catering inducements are held out to learners
Now we apprehend that reporting does not de-
pend on photography or stenography, but more
on the intellect. 1t is quite immaterial by what
system reporter takes notes bu, to be report.
er he must have an intellect capable of compre-
hending, grasping, and Unnecessary, condensng
the arguments or speech, as the case may be. A
thousand persons may learn either photography,
or stenography; but not more than ter of the
number will be good reporters. 1t does not fol-
low that If a man learn shorthand, that he will
as a consequence, be a reporter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81, o'clock, p. M.
John Quincy Adams was taken with fit, at
ha!f-past one O'Clock, in the House of Represen-
tatives, which caused the greatest commoton
and excitement.
He was carried into the Speakers room, the
House adjourring nstantaneously, and several
physicians were summoned to the spot. The
Senate adjourned Immediately afterwards.
The deepest regret is felt and experienced by
every one who has learned the fact 1t is proba-
bly, an apoplectic stroke.

GREAT MEN JOINING THE TAYLOR CAUSE
Within few days, several great men, of great
political standing, aud of different parties, have
announced their preference for General TAYLOR
lis their candidate for the presidency. We may
| enumerate the Hon. ohm Sergeant, Hon. Jose ph
r. 1ngersoll, Hon. VIM. G. Rives, Hon. Garrett
Duncan, Hon. Andrew Stewart, of Pa, and though
last, not least, Col Van Ness, of New York
All these gentlemen have come out flat-footed
for General Taylor. They have held high and
responsible situations, and their influence can
not but exert great weight in favor of the hero of
Buena Vista. Some of them support him as a
wing, and others a no party man. Col. Van
Ness supports him on the latter ground, and his
remarks on this respect are worthy of deep con.
slderation. We extract the following from his
letter to the public, upon political parties, eau
cuses, and conventions, and the next presden-
! tial election:-
He is the man above all others, upon whom the PEG.
pie can unite regardless Of old party pref and
the time wi bout any sacrifice principle or even
OF pride He has never been id-ntifed with party
large. And what is still better he will know no pths.
party He has chosen his political position aud there
can scarcely be doub. thatt viii prove as mpreanabl
as was bis military position at Buena Vista The ground
occupied by him, with reference TO the presidency
cannot be appropriately and beautifully described
"
high Office it must be untramreled with party obliga-
tions interests Of kind and under but those
which the constitution and the high interests of the
nation at large, most seriousy anu solempy cems nd
Ia addition TO tbis he has declared that be would
Dshsr be the candidate Of party, the president
OF party but candidate ut all, the didate Of
the people and If elected the esidert Of the people
These sentiments are excellent and we would
wish to see them prevail IN the next presidential
election. The people, the masses, have too long
been led and directed by the wre-pullers party
wing and democratic; and it is time that our cleo
lions were conducted in the simple and plaiu
manner contemplated by the constitution, and
that the will of the people, irrespective of polit.
cIans, should prevail. If we have strayed from
the right course, 1t is time that we retraced our
steps, and repaired the wrong.
From this valuable accession of strength and
influence, 1t would appear that the Taylor cause
is gaining ground rapidly in different parts of
the country. Let the independent men of all
parties flock to his standard, and the politicians
will not be as succes siul they hope TO be in
crowding him off the track.
