lhe Two parties are now fairly IN the
held each having presented to US candi-
late Tor the Presidency rejecting ilS pecuI-
lar views II is for the People to decide
between the antagonistic, principles which,
they represent.
kn Gen. Taylor is represented to us the
representative Of constitutional. conserya.
tive, and beneficial policy at home. and a.
peaceful just, non,intervnetion policy in re-
gard to foreign Powers.
In Cass Is offered to US the representative
Of Dorrisn and Locofocosni, Of the Veto un..
on liberal Legislation at home, and OF in,er..
venlon, war conquest, and annexation with
almost every accessible part of the foreign,
world
These are the political characteristics of
The Two candidates for the Presidency.
Need we say that we hold it to be our du.
ty to give to the Wing candidate, thus re-.
commended TO us by his political sentiments
by great public services, and by the prefer
ence of the Convention n cordial support
From the Baltimore Patriot.
We will not effect to deny that this nomi-
nation Of Gen. Taylor gives us personally
great satisfaction. From his first appear
ance on the battle field of Palo Alto, where
he suddenly burst upon the country, as one
who united to all the qualities of a soldier
all the virtues OF man, up to the ever glo-
Iious and unparalleled battle OF Buena Vis-
ia, and thence to his return to his homo on
the banks OF the Mississippi, we have watch.
ed his course with careful eye, and found
our ad nlratlon for him increasing as he
came TO be better known. And our admi-
ration was that of the people. He was
brave soldier-that drew attention TO him.
As General, he Infused his own indomita-
BILE spirit into all around him-that excited
the enthusiasm Of the country. He was, as
humane in the hour ofvictory as he was
courageous IN the moment of danger-that
touched the hearts of his counirymen. He
was as modest az he was brave-that pave
him the respect Of all. The impulses OF his
nature were all honest-that won for him
general confidence. He was found 10 be-
equal to all emergen cies. and as wise in
council as he was successful in execution
and that determined the peorle to make him
| President
The Convention in Philadelphia have no.
bly, seconded this determination. and, az we
|
glad will we be. and glorious day for the
country will 1t De, when on the fourth oil
March next he shall be inaugurated az
President.
Since the above was written we have re.
ceived despatch announcing that MILLARD
FILLMORE, OF New Yo,k has been nomina-
ted rs Vice President. No better nomina.
lion could be made. Mr.. +. is known "a
ihe whole community by distinguished ca.
reer in Congress, and enjoys popularity
in New York, which has made him invln.
chile. With TAYLOR and FILLMORE we
have ticket which ensures glorious vic.
tory.
From the Baltimore American.
That Gen. "ay lor will make good Presi.
dent follows from the very condition of his
nature which would not allow him 10 be q
bad one. With so much honesty of purpose
so much clear intelligence so much practi
cal knowledge ofmen and things, together
with such fund o mod ration and kiudl,
feeling, the confidence which has always al
tended Gen. Taylor hitherto will 90 with
him 10 the Presidency.
We believe he will make on. Of the bes
Presidents the country has ever had.
