GENERAL TAYLoR's POSITION AT n lay
Tor Wing festival ip Philadelphia, on the 22d
rlt.. tie letter was read from General Taylor TO
J. r. Ingcrsoll, ESQ, concerning which SO much
has been said, as settling Cen rs claims to be
considered Wing.
The letter is dated last August, and says in so
many words that he (Gen. Taylor) is Wing in
principle; that in the last Presidential campaign
il was well known he was decidedly in favor Of
Henry Gays election; that be would now pre-
FER to see him chosen President than any other
individual living in the Union, certainly much
more So at any time, than himself (Gen. IT, 4;
and that he considers Mr. Clay's views and those
of the Wings more nearly assinilated to those
of MIR Jefferson, in whose political creed he
(Gen. T) was reared, than those of their oppo'
nents The remainder of the letter, which is a
long one, repeats substantially what he has said
so often in previous letters relative to himself
and the Presidency lie does not want the Of
fee, and doubts his possession of the necessary
qualifications for it, but if the people should see
fit to elevate him. he should feel bound to accept
their honors, and serve them to the best Of his
ability.

THE IlABITs OF Mr. ADAMS were pure, sim
pie, and unostcntatOus, even to awkwardness
lie always arose before day, and when in health,
made his own FIRE. lie used great exercise, and
was peculiarly fond Of bathing and swimming.
No one ever was more industrious, or sacrificed
less Of his time. lie was one of the most pro-
life writers OF the age.
Ills journal, which he kept from early life, and
which embodics all his conversations with distin-
gushed men Of his own and other countries, is,
no doubt, the most valuable document in being,
and richer legacy TO his children than the am
pie fortune he leaves. This fortune is not the
result Of niggardy economy (or Mr. Adams
always spent more than his official income), but
of two successful speculations and great rise
in the value of his patrimonial estate. Mr. Adj
ans leaves also copies of every letter he ever
wrote, and among his voluininous productions
are most able culoges on fiadison, Monroe and
Lafayette
Mr. Adams leaves a widow, to whom he wa.
married in London in 1877. She was the daugh.
ter of Col Joshua johnson, then consul at Lon.
don, and the niece Of Gov johnson, of Mary.

Mr. Adams leaves also his youngest son, Charlie,

ey' The whole country is shrouded in mourn
ing and gloom. JOHN Quincy ADAMS, the
Patriot, Philosopher and Sage, has gone TO his
final rest. In the fulness of more than the al
lottcd years of human life, in the midst Of the
representatives of the Republic, and most fifty
within the walls of its Capitol, where his voice
never raised but in the cause Of freedom and re-
ligion-has been so often heard, he saw the "last
OF earth" and gave up a life well spent in the
service of his country. In a long life, passed
chiefly in public and official stations; the depos-
itory of great and varied trusts, and exposed to
the most virulent party attacks; for sixteen years
a member of the House of Representatives, and
brought in frequent collision with the bitter and
abusive advocates of slavery-it is remarkable
that Mr. Adams has never been accused or sus-
peeted of insincerity, or dishonest or dishonor-
able act Those who condemned his course most
warmly, respected his integrity and patriotism.
Such man and such a history may be safely
held up for the instruction of mankind.
Mr. Adams always took great pleasure in
gratifying the frequent calls upon him by ladies
for his autograph, and often accompanied it with
few stanzas expressive of kind and affection
ate good wishes. The last one written by him
simple and beautiful in thought, is published in
the National Intelligcncer, from which we copy

OsITrAEY HoxoRs TO Mn ADAMs.-1he
greatest respect is paid TO the memory of Mr.
Adams by the legislature, executive, Judicial
and municipal authorities in all parts Of the
country. The Legislatures Of New York and
Pennsylvania have passed appropriate resolu-
t;ons and taken other due netice Of his decease
A similar course will probably be pursued by all
the Legislatures Of other States, which are now
in session.
The President issued an order on the oath,
announcing in affecting terms the sad event that
took place the night before, and directing that
all the Executive Offices in Washington be plac-
cd in mourning and closed for two days. The
President also rendered the use Of the East Room
for Mr. Adams remains TO lie in state.
The Secretary of War has also issued his
general ORDER directing that at each Military
Post, on the day after the receipt of the order,
the troops shall be called together the announce
ment read to them, and all labor ceased for the
day. The National flag shall be displayed at
half mast thirteen guns shall be fired at dawn
of day; single gun every 80 minutes during
the day; and at the close national salute Of
tweniy-nine guns. The officers of the Army
will wear Grape on the left arm and on their
swords, and the colois Of the different regiments
shall be put in mourning, for six months
The different Courts at New York, Albany
and Boston, and probably other cities, adjourned
for the day, after the announcement of Mr. Ad-
ans death had been made.
Mr. Adams funeral took place at Washington
ON Saturday. There was an immense turnout
on the occasion, aud the procession was mile
