GREATTAyLOR MEETING.

On Thursday evening last, the Hon. H.
W. Thompson Of Indiana having been ex-
pected here, a large number OF our citizens as
sembled in front of the court house and pa
tiently awaited the arrival of the eastern sta
ges. The mail came at length, and 1t was
ascertained that owing to the detention OF the
cars, the accommodation stages could not ar
rive until morning. The large audience left
the ground sad and disappointed.
About noon on Friday, Messrs. Smith and
Thompson, both Of Indiana, arrived. Notice
was necessarily short; but the cannon tnun-
dered from the hill, the band in their elegant
wagon, decked with streamers, went out,
and at half past seven a crowd OF from tour
five thousand had assembled in front OF the
stand which had been erected during the al
ternoon by a few Of the 'indomiiables."
BY the bye, this stand and its decorations
deserve a passing notice. 1t was erected OPP
posite the. enn,' "~.'-- a@4i"st : large blank
wall fronting the east, commanding oO 1t OF
x.f,ut oronud fira- n-tt-a ~aata--tha ee~
house front and yard, The ground gradually ri
sing from the stand. The stand was ten #.
high and capable OF seating about 20 persons.
Over the front was d transparency OF sixteen #
bearing the honored names Of la lor and
Fillmore. Against the wall and on the sides
of the stand were green boughs hanging grace
July over the speakers head and insterspersed
lamps, and on each side OF the stand extend.
ing al an angle 10 the ground, wers transpar-
encies with their varied notices and mellow
ed light. High up in the shadow OF the moon
less night, could be seen proudly waving the
stars and stripes which had been so proudly
borne by Gen. Tayiora and our gallant soldiers
over the fields Of Mexico. The whole effect
was such as to draw from all who approached,
AN exclamation of qualification at its beauty
and the promp!ness with which it had been
erected.
The meeting was organized by calling Hen
ny Lazier. Esq. 10 preside, and the Hon. Ca
leb L. Smith Of Indiana was introduced to
the assemb,age by A.. Caldwell, ESQ. chair
man OF the Central Committee. MIR. Smith
enchanted his auditory for an hour and a half
by a train OF clear and lucid argument upon
the great national questions at issue in the
present contest.
Mr., Thompson wa then introduced and for
keen rebuke OF the nsupations OF the powers
that be, could not we'll be excelled. He held
has audience until the unwelcome sound
"Stage is ready, informed them they could
hear no more. Mr.T left by stage to join his
family in Columbus.
On Thursday Messrs. Caldwell and Whar-
ton received ID despatch appointing them a
committee TO wait upon Mr.. Thompson, on
behalf OF the wings OF GAINESVILLE, and request
him to address them. We called on him as
soon as he arrived, and The reply was | must
ride all night; butt they will see me into
Columbus by II o'clock on Saturday night
am al their service. They agreed, and we
find in Mondays Courier, a glowing account
OF their meeting on Saturday.

TILE rnNSITETION.

= We have no idea %, writing a dissertation

and spouted upon by every county lawyer
most Of whom have never read u, until were
it not o. faltnsut 81 would have worn out,
but we prop,s, To- comment upon the remarks
made by tle So. C.aiss,il,e Gazettc upon our
just observation That ne Wing platform was
the Constitution OF the county. We wish
to shove up this iyro in history aud c%onstitu-
tional law for a few minutes.
The Wings oppose the use Of the veto
power except as a conservative power to pre-
vent legislative encroachments upon the pre-
negatives strictly belonging to the executive;
yet the Gazette says:
an l7S7. in the convention to form a con-
stitution, Hamilton, the father OF the federal
or wing party, contended Tor a national con-
soiidated government.
Hamilton the father of the wing party
well, that is fat and rich. Gen. Cass aud his
friends are the especial advocates OF the veto,
aud upon this subject in the convention, ac-
cording to Mr.. Madison's state papers. page
lji, we read MIR. Gerry's proposition be-
Ing now before the committee, Air. Wilson,
Chen called . consolidation lederalist.) and
MIR. Hamilton moved that the last part OF it
be struck out, 50 as TO giDt the ErecutiUe an
absolute negaiiUe on tie ldws. There was no
danger, they thought, of such a power beng
too much exercised. 1t was mentioned by
Col. Hamilton, that the king OF Great Bti-
tain had not exerted his negative since the
Revolution" Il. E. 1858.
Messrs Madison, Gerry, franklin, Sherman,
Mason, and Butler were opposed to the grant
of the veto power. OF which party should we
suppose Hamilton the father?
The Gazette goes on 10 say:
Under Madison, your leaders opposed the
var. lauded Hull's desertion, voted against
raising men or money TO defend our soil, de-
nouncea Jackson's course at n. Orleans, aud
formed a Hartford convention to strike down

CHARLES W. Russell ESq.
DEAR SIR: Your favor Of the 3lst July has
been forwarded to me at this place. The ar
ticle TO which yen direct my attention in the
"Mariet,a lntellisencer. Is, you may rest as
sured, entirely uniomde1.
There were various rumors IN Baltimore be
fore | left Tor Virginia in July. in regard to
the 'inpracticajl.ty, OF toe extension OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road to Wheel
ing, and | regret TO say that the interests OF
our road have suffered, by the coun,euance
which has been given 10 those rumors, not
only by persons at a distance, but By many OF
our own citizens, who could, with very little
trouble, have understood the whole subject,
by application at the Office of the company.
| took occasion some weeks since to say to Mr.
Moore, from your city, who did me the favor
TO call on me at the instance of MIR Brady, in
relation TO this very subject, whatl shall now
say in answer to your letter.
Mr. Latrobe, the Chief Engineer of tht
Company, neUer has in any report, or on coca.
sion, so far as am informed, pronounced tbs
route to Wheeling impracticable On the con
trary, he has already located the most Difficult
pa ri of that route, and has made hi, estimates
with a view to place it under contract at al
early day.
In order 10 secure not only a good route
but the best of which tie country was sus
ceptible. and avoid ali cause lor %reproach here
after, the Board deemed il due to themselve
as well as their own engineer. that in 50 i'm
portant a step as the final location Of the roal
West of Cumberland, he should have the ad
vice and cooperation OF one or more distin
guishea Engineers, 10 confirm his owa survey
Of the route proper 10 be selected. In accord
ance with the plan, Jonathan Knight, Esq
advantageously known to YOU, and Mr. Child
occupying d prominent position in the Engin
eer service Of the Eastern States, were EN-
ployed to go over the various routes whic
claimed the attention OF the Board. in CON
pany with Mr. latrobe, and submit as soon a
practicable the result Of their examination:
II there has been any difference OF opinio
as TO the practicdbility OF the route, on ID
part of any Of these distinguished gentlemen
it is entirely unknown TO any member OF III
Direction. In fact, Mr. Latrobe is now engag
ed on an instrumental survey, looking to ii
location OF "a route which seemed to offer eve
greater advantages, than that reported upo
BY him as altogether practicable d adoantogt
GUS. The final report and decision in regar
to the choice OF routes will be made early i
the ensuing autumn.
need hardly say, that it affords me pleas
ure, to contradict a statement which in ltsei
tects upon the important interests Yves
OF the Ohio river, might prove injurious
the prospects Of your city.
Very respectfully,
Your Ob'tSery't,
TH0S. SWAMI.

GENERAL TAYLOR IN ALABAMA

| 0ltANGhhh lhILOh lN A.
The signs in the political horizon of Alabama
are merring induces that Gen, Cass is b COM
ing rather TOO heavy to be sustained by the
ttlJut even among the democracy OF the
State. One by one the leaders who aspire to
iirect the people, move 10 the front rank and
are forced BY public sentiment or 'priuatc
aTdlrs to retire from their position.
Col. Cottrell, an ex-hember Of Congress
rom Mr.. Yancey's district, was appoi ted by
The democracy the Cass Elector for his dis
trrci; ne accepted the appointment and enter
I'd upon his duties, stamping it through the
country, when suddenly his "priuate afairs'
demanded his personal attention; and he is
compelled TO resign his office.
Another Eleclor, Col. Cochrance, of Mr..
billiards district, was invited by MIR. Pugh,
lie Wing Electar, to accompany him through
The district and discuss The merits OF Cass and
Taylor together, bat the Colonel very mo les
lily ieclined the invitation, and published ais
own appointments a lew days after Mr..
Pugh's.
These are some Of the signs OF the times in
Aiabalnf; they forboje a desperate struggle
Tor The democracy of that State, and we are by
no means sure that they do not indicate GER
tam defeat. The people are being enlighten-
ed III reference to the principles OF Gen. Cass,
and according TO the Jacksonville Republican,
Democratic Cass paper, they find his prin-
clples are neither democratic nor South
erH. "-ANgusta Chronicle.
