ANOTHER IMPORTANT LETTER FROM GEy. T6Y-
LoR.-The Charleston IS. C.) News furnished the
following extract from letter from Gen. Tay Tor,
written since the Philadelphia nomination:
Nv former declarations are those only which
govern me. and which now repcat-ihat it is not
my purpose 10 accept Of the wing nomination on
q whig platform. upon any platform but lhat
which is based upon my own repeated deciara-
tons
,"Thcy (my friends) have represented to me
that the withdrawal of my name would be fatal 10
the success, and perhaps lead TO the dissolution Of
The party with which have been associated, es-
pecialIy in the free Sates--CIay's last PrOnUncj-
Galent0.
1t is row pretty generally believed that Mr..
CLAW told tn. truth for once. Mr.. Clay was not
run. and it now looks very much like the wing
Uarty have been dissolved, sure enough, in some
of the Slalcs.'

vhir leaders exposed by one Of their own number.

wings in the nation, and characterised by lnal par
~ az a terror TO lOcoiocOlsm,' has Let himself
loose upon Gen. TavOr after the following style !:
With what consistency or proPreiy can we
condemn Mr. Polk for taking from the Senate n
mere civilian as Lieutenant General, 10 place
over experienced military men. and for looking TO
the ranks of private life for his DrIgaderS, Colo
nels Majors &c, when we propose to LOOK 10 the
camp for a mere soldiar,' who has never occu-
pied the humbiesI positions IN civil hte, TO take
charge of the affairs of this entire uaton, foreign
and domestic 10 the exclusion OF the "isest. most
e,nerienced. and most trustworthy statesman of
the age"

so far degraded as 10 give the lie TO all our paS
professions TO acknowledge OuTSeceS hnaceS, hyPo
critics slaues and fools for the sake o wing VIC
tory: and we do therefore repudiaie the non"na'
ton Of Zachary Taylor, and viii do our utmos'
TO defeat his election"
