"history."
The Democrat of yesterday republishes itsar-
ticbe of the 18th of April. We answered il
on its first appearance as we thought it deserv-

we are sorry to admit that we have evidence
sufficient without that furnished by his party

land good man TO administer its highest Office,
can hesitate TO vote?
Against the character of Zachary Taylor no
man can say aught, and hope TO be believed
His uncalculating patriotism has been proved
by long years of unobtrusive service-always
ready, always rendered at the right time, and
in the right manner-and as the field expanded
and greater demands were made upon his abil-
tiles, his zeal and his love OF couniry--these a.
blities that zeal, that love of country seemed
TO grow wi. n the occasion and 10 make him
equal TO every exigency-suprrior TO all obsta-
cles, master of himself, master of fortune.
The Romans were wont to consider this last
circumstance as of prime importance. Fclir
ct tOrtiS-fortunate as well as bold--were the
characteristics of which, in the choice of lead
ers, they acknowledged the just influence, and
we may wisely follow their example.
Fortunate has Gen. Taylor been in his public
career. As subaltern in the gallant and sue
cessful defence, under great combined difficult
ties and discouragements,a at Fort Harrlson--as
commanding corps in the Florida war, and
especially in the bloody battle of Okechobe-
as commander of the army of occupation at
Corpus Christi and subsequently, as leader-un-
der orders from the President, but unsupported
by re endorsements and UNFINISHED with sup
progress from Point Isabel TO Buena Vista with
an unbroken succession of victories--gained
always against greatly superior numbers and
used always with unfailing moderation and
humanity, Brave and fortunate in all these
scenes of war triumph, he has been not less
fortunate in his manner of relating such great
events, in his personal intercourse with his
fellow citizens, since his return home, and in
all the circumstances which recommended
him 10 the Wing Convention, by which he was
nominated at Philadelphia.
Fortunate and brave thus far the end will
crown the work, and in making Zachary Tay-
Tor our next Pres ident will afford TO the world
the proof that, operating upon an intelligent
and patriotic people-a strong will, clear
head; an honest heart, and well-pRoved patri-
otism, can enchain even so tickle thing as
Fortune.
