BRIEr MEMOIR or CIV. TAYLOR
Zachary Taylor was bornin the county Of
Orangein Virginia removcdto Ken
lucky in carly life with his father. In
1868 he reeeived commission from Presi-
dent Jefferson, Of d Lieutenancy in the
9TH infantry. Hesoon after became d cap
tain
In 1872, while in the command Of Fort
Harrison, with but d handful Of men, he
was attacked by a force Of $50 Indians,
whom he repelled III tho most gallant and
soldierly manner. In the Black Hawk
war of 1892. Taylor, now Lieut.. Colo
mel, was assigned the command Of the reg
ular troops Of Gen. Atkilison's army. In
1887 he was ordered with his regiment to
Florida, where he served with distinction,
and showed himselfia faithful, efficient Of.
fcer. lie received the breyet Of brigadier-
general in consequence, On the 2sth Of
May, 1915, he was ordered by the Secreta-
ry of War to hold His troops in readiness
to move into Texasto rcpel invasion either
Of the Mexfcans or Indians Tho Mexi-
can war followed; and the battles Of Palo
Alto, Resaca. de la Palma, Monterrey and
Buena Vista, made Taylor the most noted
man of the war.
ANoBLE AoT.-Gen Taylor III 15i4t15
was Captain, or perhaps Major by bro,
vet, and stationed with his company at
Green Bay--at that time far beyond tho
limits Of civilization. The Paymaster re-
ccived from the government the necessary
funds to pay off the T.. s. troops, which
funds, save small amount, he exchanged
for the bills of J. II, piabt Il co, Bankers
in the city of Cincinnati This was assbu-
siness transaction on private account
The Paymaster proceeded to Detroit, and
there paid off The soldiers in this indi-
yidual responsibility paper; he then pro-
ceedcd to Mackinaw, and there paid tho
soldiers in like manner; lastly he reached
Green Bay. Here again the Paymaster,
with proper official solemnity, counted out
to Capt Taylor the bills Of j. III. Piatt L.
Co, Bankers, for tile soldiers. Old Tack
looked at the rags and said ~ Is this tie

WsshINoroS, June IS, 1918.
i When . citizen ispresented is the conn
y try as q candidate for the first Office within
ITS gift and his clsims to popular iayol
arc based upon his public services. III,
archives Of the government should furnisl
the evidence 70 justify these aspirations
and not the representations Of his polite
lal friends. / propose to examine some 81
the pretensions Of General Cass by this
standard. Fortunately, tho d9rcial record
exists and from it shall draw such tcs.
timony IS will establish mr. case, and show
| 70 the nation Of what etrf8 ibis thinp
I Is Democracy, up0id ne d Prcsi.
General Cass may Be said to be pecu-
liarly the child of Executive patronage
For thirty-odd yearsIh has been sturdy
ofhce-holder-one who has grown gray in
the service, aud fat upon the spoils, The
government has fed him and clothed him
for anordinary lifetime; and besides con-
ferring RSfiors, it has heaped fortune upon
his back, through the tga-ordinary al
lowance of its officials and partizans. In
all this long period, he received but one
mark Of confidence at the hands of the
people, and that was his election to the Lee
gislature of Ohio, as i Eetleralisf, in 1906.
His career has been that of courtier o.
broad, and time-seIyer ut home. Under
all the changes of parties he has adhered
to posesr, and never been known to be
guilty of the mistake of being caught in
minority. The lust of Office removed
every obstacle Of principle, and made linn
equally plant TO the administration for the
time, whether'its policy conceded with his
convictions or not. His ambition seems
to have been to getplace, and to keep d.
Few succeeded better, and fewer still
have held Office so long, or been rewarded
so we'll
If to have held lucrative stations under
the Government for more than thirty
years-if to have grown a millionaire at
the public expcnse-if TO have made court
to royalty abroad, and to have imported
its inyidious distinctions ut home, consti-
tute claims for the Presidency, Gen Cass
is eminently entitled to the station. He
has all these qualifications, and othefs
equally meritorious
Statements have recently appeared in
some of the public prints, showing the
enormous sums allowed Gen. Cass, under
the head of . ectfan pay during the period
when he was receiving large salaries for
discharging the uery duties upon which
these claims were .professedly founded
All the statements that have fallen under
my eye are Imperfect, and have taken the
pains to analyze the public documents;
with view Of presenting something like
fair synopsis, in round numbers, Of the
profits Of this most fortunate office-holder.
| shall prove at the proper time, that in
repeated instances he has received pay
and allowance, for the sane serticc three
times Oeef. For the present, I only pro.
pose to submit general outline:

This shows him to have been in the re-
ceipt of $500 for eighteen years. Now
let as examine the ''EXTRASn and see
how much MORE he was allowed during
this period of service

tion of the services and COMMISSIONS on

was receiving $500 year, not for per-

0s- The editor Of the Victoria cTexas) Advocate
has lately returned from trip to Port Lavacca.
He informs us that the citizens of that place have
opened a road TO Goliad, crossing the Guadalupe
sixteen miles above Victoria. They are also sur
veying and opening a road to AUSTIN which VIII
greatly shorten the distance between these two
places. The Advocate represents the merchants OF
iLavacca as looking anxiously forward to the Chi
huahua trade, and if the Government take no ac-
ton in regard to road in that direction, the editor
has no doubt thatl ryate enterprises will open the
route this fall.

he is not far out of the way by anticipating pretty

bosom Of Mexico, and they are now returning to

There are some absent ones who d1d belong 10
our little host who will never return Death hath
taken to his cold embrace many a stout heart. The
ties of friendship and of love have been torn asun-
der by the consequences of rude war; and the tears
Of mothers, widows and children have fallen Tor the
gallant dead But grief cannot blind the bereayed
ones to the glorious achievements OF our patriotic
hosts. Prompted by love of country and glory,
they forsook the sweet obscurty Of peace to ylndl-
cate, even in the centre of vast empire, the honor

with imperishable renown. Millions yet to come,
will wonder at their self-devotion while the mel

hearts, will be sweedy blended with feeling Of
pride and triumph; and sorrow for the dead will
shrink from the glorious Light THEN actions have
