his country, and his whole country. Hav
ing spent his whole life in The public ser
vice, and on terms of cordial and friendly
intercourse with the people Of al parts OF

most liberal sentiments of nationality. l

5. He will do much. if elected, 10 put
dnwn the efforts now making in various
quarters 10 run all The politics "f The roun-
try into a mischievous spirit Of serlional-

will learn that Of all the qualifications for

dence, or domicil is the lowest. | am
more disposed TO look 10 The mar himself,
To The qualities ol his head and heart, ra-

succession Of Presidents for the next five
centuries vino shall administer the Gov
eminent afier the fashion and in the spirit
Of Washington, though every one Of them
should come from the capes of Floriia !
9. Congress will be restored to the
powers and preregaliyes which the franz
ers Of the constitution intended thai body
should exercise. II must be obvious, on
the slightest examination of that insIru'
meai, that To Congress was conided the
power Of expressing The will Of the peO-
pie, in the form Of laws, and 10 The Exec
u,ve The duty only Of executing that will
when asceriaiaed ny Congress. But with
in the last few years there has been in
progress rapid concentration Of all pow.
er in The hands OF the Executive. The
President has become every thing and
Congress nothing. An irresponsible body.
called convention, aud generally small
committee of such body, assembled in The
upper room Of some tavern. have arroga-
ted the right If settling every thing in ad.
vance, and of binding both Congress and
The Executive. The laiIer has become
the agent OF delased and groyeIling par.
iizanship to override the former. either
through the insirumei. ,aliiy If the veto. or
by corrupt exercise Of patronage. To
the correction of the enormous evils Of
the one-man power General Taylor
stands distinctly pledged. The momen,
this is done, The great questions of public
policy are taken out OF the Presidential
fcanvass, and are carried intn the Congress
sional districts. II the people desire a
protective tariff, the improvement Of our
harbors and rivers. or any policy in re-
gard to our territories, they will elect mem
bers Of Congress accordingly. This will
relieve the legislation of The country from
the malign Influence Of party, and will be
likely IL give much greater stability ia
such measures as have favorable bearing
on the important interests Of the country
than has obtained for many years past.
Z. The influence Of the name and cha.
racler Of General Taylor will be quite GER
tain 10 give US Congress whose views Of
public policy will accord with these Of
the Wing party. In this respect he can
do more for the country thar any man
nav living. Few of lIinse who undertake
TO pronounce so peremp,orily on the ques-
lion Of the Presidency have given this sub.
jeci any consideration Whatever. While
| am free to admit that Mr.. Clay ought 10
have been elected President long ago. YET
think il certain that il he could nov be
brought successfully into The field, he
would have the two Houses of Congress
To ihwart aud embarrass him. during ,hf
whole of his Presidential term. Any man
who will consider The condition Of the re-
presentation in both branches oil Congress:
