For the Freeman.
Gross Deception,

Mr. EDITOR lis there way to induce your
neighbor of the "Watchman'o take down that stand
ing fasehood which weekly takes its position at the
head of his editorial columns? allude to the Watch
mans quoted extract from the editorial of the "Ohio
Signal" with an extract from General Taylor's letter
in reply thereto call the thing a falsehood because
by taking those extracts merely and placing them in
false uxtapostion, the impression is conveyed that
he is favorable to the policy of extending the ordin
ance of 1887 over California and New Mexico, a con-
cluson which reading of the whole article of the
" Signll" and the whole of General Taylors letter in
reply would not warrant. But call it much more
than falsehood of argument and construction
Months ago the editor oil the Tuscaloosa (Aa.l Moni
tor stated in that paper that he had private letter
from General Taylor, in which the General said that
did not, by his letter to the "I5ignaP editor intend
IT, ildorse the sentiments of the Signal editorial. This
declaration of the Tuscaloosa editor was published
all over the land Has it not met the eye of your Wig
liant neighbor of the Watchman? Nay more, that
letter has itself been published for several weeks
bearing date Nov. 5, l847, in which the General dis
tinctly says, 1t not my utcntion in that commu
nication, to express opinion either in concurrence
er in opposition to any of the views embraced in the
editorial article to which it refers" And yet your
ncighbor keeps that same "Signal' falsehood flying
at his mast head yet The "Vergennees Vermonter'
does the same, and perhaps other Taylor sheets ii
Vermont Now is there no way to shame these mer
out of this falsehood? They tell us their candidate i.
an honest man. Can it then be agreeable to Genera
Taylor to attain the Presidency by system of wei
concerted lying the part of his friends? Does thu
Waterman intend to atone for its reluctant adhesion
to the Taylor scheme by zeal as blind to the mora
quality of the means it may use, as it is desperate a
to the end itseeks? Was the Watchman's conscenc,
not vanqushed merely, but slain outright in that val
liant struggle between fidelity TO principle and faalt!
to party, ending in inglorious submission to the Tay
. ror humbug? Again | say can you not shame thes
k people out of this arrant fasehood? Do try.

Loss Of the Ocean Monarch,

We give below the official account, of the destruc-
ton of this noble vessel-a notice of which we gave
in our paper of week before last.
Official Siatement.-The Ocean Monarch, 1900 tons
burden, left the Mersey early Thursday, with about
$50 souls board including the crew and passengers
We discharged the pilot about O'Clock. No ircldent
worthy Of note occurred until arrived off the Orms
head, at which tine it was nearly ~ O'clock Orders
were given to tack ship and willie hauling the main
yard was stated that one of the Storage passengers
had made fire in of the ventllators, without re-
Election. | Immediately sent the steward and another
man to extlngush the fire and bring up the delinquent
who had made it. Immediately after this one Of the
cabin passengers came on deck and stated that the
cabin was full of smoke which was coming from below.
On he ring this, down to ascertain the position
Of affairs, and found that the ship was actually on fire.
then hurried back to the deck and gave orders to
have water poured upon it, and directed that the ship
should be kept before the wind in order lessen the
draft, bnt the iames with rush almost as instantane.
Gus as lightning, burst FORTH and in less than five min
nes the whole stern of the ship completely envel-
oped IN the fiery element then gave orders to have
The ship brought to the wind. All was now scene Of
The utmost confusion, noise and disorder. Ny orders
could not be heard Despair had seized almost every
soul on board. The scene which presented itself was
most awful to contemplate, much more to look upon.
The flames were bursting with immense fury from
the stern aud centre of the vessel So great was the
heat in tn, sc parts that the passengers male and fs
male, men women and children, crowded to the fore
part of the vessel Their piercing heart rending
shreks for aid were carried by the wind across the
dark, blue waves. In their maddened despair women
jumped overheard with their offspring in their arms, and
sank to rise no more, Men followed their wives in
frenzy, and were lost. Groups of men, women and
children also precptated themselves into the water in
the vain hope of self presentations but the waters
ed over many of them forever and fearfully realized
the inspired declaration, that Sin the midst of life we
are in DEATH" In vain did enreat and beg of the
passengers to be composed. pointed out to them
that there several vessels around us, and that il
they preserved order they would all be saved; that al
though the was desperate, it was not hopeless
1t was Of no avail Howls of lamentaton and cries
for help were the only answers could obtain to my
entreaties. Finding that every effort which could

Who WROTE IT ?-Gen Tayor's last-which the
New York Tribune says, is the next best thing to
none at alp-it is said in New Orleans was written by
the editor of the New Orleans Plcayune-
neutral print. A correspondent Of the New Orleans
Morning Chronicle not only detects the finger marks
Of the Plcayune editor in the phrase "riven from the
context" and several Others which occur in this sec
ond Allison letter, but adds:
"The fact TOO, of the presence of the editor of the
Pcayune. at Pascagoa, when it was written, and his
appearance in the city simultaneously With that of the
letter. are confrmatory proof of whatever sufficient
ly manifest on the face of the letter"

believed it was some wing of Massachusetts,"
asked him to give us the name, when he looked on tn
outside OF the pamphlet and read the name of "enr
Z. Wright" The pamphlet was entitled "a compar:
son between Dick Crowningshied the Assassin and
Zachary Taylor the Soldier"
Now we are not going to AFFIRM deny or express
any opinion as to the TRUTH falsehood or merits of the
pamphlet in question. Such as wish to do this can
read it for themselves But we do protest against this
heterogeneous, reprehensble course pursued BY party
speakers, political demagogues, and partisan news
papers in making use of what they know to be mis-
representation and vile falseh)od, merely to accom-
plsh some equally vile party scheme. Leading dem
Wight, Garrison, Phillips and Others while the whier
in their turn, with equal want of truth and candor
charge them upon the Liberty party. Now every mar
knows, or should know, that these men claim to be
non-resstants and no government men. They hole
that the Constitution of the United States being "a
covenant with death and an agreement with hell,
should be entirely destroyed-and that this "corup
slaveholding Union" they term it, SHOULD be bro
ken up" They denounce the Liberty and Free Sol
PARTIES especially; and indeed they have in store
magazine of anathamas for all political parties, al
though they have already emptied several.
Col. Weller after procuring cheers from both side
of the house-on the one side for praisng Gen. Tay
or's bravery and coolness-and on the other for ca
posing his political ignorance, and the inconsistent
of his supporters, sat down amid round of applause
Thus ended this great democratic demonstration, an
with it will close my letter. R.V.M.
