long thought he couldn't support Taylor. lie

published, helps to obviate much that had a

Hale by the late Liberty party, and turning u
somerset over to Van Buren,, whose course when
President was so obnoxious, as opposed to every
principle they have hitherto professed, furnishes
one OF the most glaring examples of political re-
creancy and inconsistency which modern times
has yet Witnessed and has completely annha-

The Choice.

In accordance with our declared determine

names of the Wing candidates for National and
State Offices within the immediate gift of the |
People.
In taking this step we indicate no new con.
vclon, unless it be that of the mpossbty of
defeating Gen. Cass otherwise than by support
ing Gen. Taylor. The peremptory withdrawal
and abandonment OF Mr.. CLAY leaves us no Sec

movement, we can yet discern no hope Of its G.
