GEN. TAYLoR's GAINES LETTER.

The celebrated letter of General Taylor to General
| Gaines written in November, 1916, has been pub
lished complete. We quote portions OF this letter
now first given to the public, as follows
Sc have, with socitude and interest, watched ovel
the result of the Investigations and although it was
not, as regards the opinion of the Court OF Inquiry
what could have wished it, yet it was as much as
could have expected considering the hostile feeling
entertained towards you by some of the high func-
tionaries at Washington. l was fearful that the
President might, to some extent, and even without
being aware of it, imblbe some OF the preudlces and
unknd feeling of those around him In regard to you
II so, he acas, doubt restrained from carrying them
too far consequence Of public opinion, which, as he
must have found, decidedly In your favor. BE
| that however as it may-taking 1t altogether-I am
gratifed at the result"
The tone of the above is too clear to be msunder-
STOOD The President, it feared,'' might &c I'M
bbe prejudices - and unkind feelings against
Gen. Gaines; and if so, he restrained from
rying them too r consequence Of public opinion -
Nothing else, according to Gen. Taylor, could have
" restrained " him Language such this, put forth
in letter intended for the public eye, would have
been strong enough; but when it is remembered that
it was uttered in confidence to personal friend we
take coming from the heart, and as entitled
to additional importance and force.
In another part of this letter, Gen. Taylor speaks
of his difficulties in obtaining rations and transporta-
ton, and says: GO / moved in such way, and with
such limited means, that had not succeeded, should
doubt have been severely reprimanded if nothing
did so to sustain the Administration but
do not believe the Administration to be disposed
tain in so doing.''
The truth is from the very beginning of the war
from the time Gen. Taylor ordered by the War
Department hold his troops in readiness to repel
any invasion of Texas the of the Administra-
ton towards him has been kind and confidential, and
much left to his discretion and good sense.
We believe that the Administration hampered as it
was by Congress- did all that it could to supply him
with and rations, and with the means of trans
portation; and to argue that it did not is assume
not only that the President was Indifferent as to the
success of our arms but grossly corrupt in his great
Office. And far Gen. Taylor is personally con-
cerned, honor after honor has been bestowed upon
him by the Administration. When the war opened
he a Colonel-now he is a Major General.
When the war commenced he was less ssknown to
fame - than either Scott WortI-now his militia
ry plumes wave amid the tallest, and his name and
his achievements the tongues of all. Who
put him forward !. Who singled him out, and gave
him opportunity. JAMES h. Polk, PRESIDENT OF
THE uNlTED STATES. Let these facts be borne in
mind.
The North-Carolina standard., 1848-02-23
MIR. H5NTER,s sPEECH.

The Whig papers of this State have been exuing
over the supposed opposition of Senators Hunter and
Niles to the Administration. So far as Senator Niles
is concerned, he generally Ootes right, and we have
no doubt he will vote for the Ten Regiment Bill;
and in relation to Senator Hunter, we copy the fol-
lowing from the Richmond Enquirer
''We have received the official report of Senator
Hunters speech, corrected by himself, and shall
commence its publication tomorrow. It's able and
learned, and many passages are full of genuine ee
quence. We highly approve of his avowal of the
intention to vote for the supplies asked by the Pe
dent, upon whom, under the Constitution, rests the
responsibility of conducting the war. At the same
time, cannot but regret that he should have
thought proper to Indicate his intended support of
line policy" should peace be obtained in tho
course of few months.'' 1t is true, he presents The
the &c line' in different character from what itB
usually set FORTH being in reality scheme of Of
fensve war, in another form from that which is
pursued instead of scheme of mere defensive line
Yet our opinion is unchanged, that the best and
speediest method of securing peace and avoiding
the ultimate consequences of protracted warfare
let Mexico know that we shall not surrender the
strong points thai have gained and that we mean
to push the vigorously, until her proud spirits
broken, and until she that her only hope of safe
ty is to yield to our just conditions of peace,
While, however, we may differ with Mr. H. in
some of the views of his able speech, we fully con
cede to him honest and patriotic motives in their eI
preston, and thank him for having stood by the
policy of the administration, as present. which,
adopted, we cannot but believe will lead to bencfc
resuts.''
