WHAT SORT OF A WING GEN. TAYLOR Is.

fthe people of the Free States have eyes, they will
see enough in the following Extract from the Charleston
3 T. Evening News TO last them till after the Fall cleo
ton Ii they do not see meaning enough in it 10 settle
the question 10 what the great issue" rea is and
what every man votes for who votes for Gen. Tay-
lor eyes are OF no use. II is for them to saw and to
say in manner that even false press cannot efectual
~ gansay, whether the nomination by the Wing Ma
uonal Convention at Philadelphia not deliberately
conrved and supendous fraud Their verdict we shall
not, we cannot doubt The extract below is part of an
argument IN favor of Gen. Taylor'S nomination being
supported by the Democrats of South Carolina. Ii
TALES with the whole scheme of Southern sectional poll
cyfor many years. Its features strong and unmis
takeably marked with truth. Ii tells, blunt short
ire story, which, though meant only for home use should
be listened to by strangers. 1t speaks outright, for
practical effect, just what it wishes have others
know and feel, that they may act accordingly.
To be sure tony tells what every freeman Of The North
above hat-wed, mis- ht and should know without such
information; nevertheless il is worth reading and study
ing. Don4 throw il away. Cut it out and paste 1t up
for use, till the November ballot settles such matters for
four evenfu years Lead the dough faces RICH! up to
it, and make them tell what it means. If they hang
back, pull them along, square up! No lodging now!
Come, gentlemen, toe the mark Face the " great as
sue" No hnching! Here, Mr.. Doughface, see for
yourself!
THE sol TIL CAROLINA MANIFESTO.
"Gen Tayors nomination made by the Southern and
Western vote almost exclusively, AMI their union in hi
support will control and color his administration

have supported constitutional rights hitherto. While
the great majority ofthe of New England and the
Middle States, and Ohio the section and hot bed

but many denounced and repudated him. With REFER
to the great issue, is not this emineny significant
to this Has ii not divided upon the sectional line
slavery-he being upon the slave and constitution side
of it.
Well again, Gen. Taylor stands unpledged specifically
to the Wing party and therefore its avewed party doc
ripes and forced upon his support.
All the great issues between the two parties have been in
the main determined, and nearly obsolete. Even
politically objectionabeas is his Allison leerh yet
it plants himself the Constitution and recognizes pro-
perly the Veto power as high conservative one. His
loose position that the will of the people, expressed
through their representatives in Congress the tariff
the currency, and internal Improvements, ought to be
respected and carried by the Executive" may

But even we support Taylor not also maintain

these now to us tries to the great issuehe Slave
question.
If we trust him who Southern slaves and
Western mules, lives in the heart Of the Slave section
who obtained his nomination by Southern and Western
votes almost exclusively and will only be elected by
them-and who has always shown a Roman frmness-
whom can we trust !-Whe we should pledge our sup-
port to him Southern man. and upon this issue
should give it only in this view. At the time we
could and should repudate Whigery and all party afa

suggested, all that is available of principles and
