Kentucky.

The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin has Te!e-
graphic dispatch stating tina; the Kentucky wing
State Convention on the 22d nominated Gen. Iay.
Ior for President We don't believe word OF It,
The statement is probably bunder, arising from
the fact that Taylor State Convention was held
ct the same time and place, for the purpose Of
driving tho Wing Convention into the nomination
Of Taylor, bat we are confident without success
We should have heard Of 1t In q hundred ways be-
fore this time had the Wing Convention nominated
Taylor.
A month ago the news flew about that the Ken
lucky Legislature had nominated Gen. Taylor the
Indiana State Convention ditto-both which proved
fsbrications, a. We are confident the new coinage
viii. The manufacture OF Taylor strength is very
ssnsibly aided in this way.
Hon. JoHS j. CRlTTEsDEs has been nominated
for Governor by the Whigs Of Kentucky. Al
though the Nation hardly spare him from th'
Eenate. Yet We presume II Is Mr.. Critsendens dut,
10 accept this nomination. Ii was the only one On
which the Wings Of Kentucky could unite, and
Il. indeed. great one. Mr. CutteRden is Just III
rpost effective and accomplished ofhand debate
In the land, and We don't at all envy the LocoF oc
who 10 doomed to meet him on the stump and &c
thrashed By him at the ballot box II be don
beat somebody ten to twenty thousand votes,
will be because nobody ventures to run sgains
him. We trust Mr.. c. will not be constrained {
resign bis seat Ia the Senate before the 7th {
June.

The Prospect of Peace.

We hear approximations expressed OF the iallofe
of the Treaty Just received from Mr. Irist In ID eA
90, some of which o: a singular character, and
We only print them ia order that our readers may
have every aspect Of the question before them IN
the frat place, the Texan Senators, who srdentiy
desire the acquisition Of AL the Mexican territory
this side of the Sierra Madre at least will strenu-
ously resist the Treaty, bssDg their opposition on
. clause therein which guarantees the Mexican
land Titles and grants in the ceded territory This
il very absurd pretext. by the way for the U. &.
Courts would sustsin and enforce all those titles,
even though nothing were said OF them in the
Trestyl The Texans. it is supposed. will reilly to
their standard Messrs Cas- Allen, flanagan and
Ill the old $40 40s; then il Mr. Calhoun or the
South w estern Senators, or any considerable mum
Der of the Wings, can be induced to unite with
them, they may raise the 10 votes required 70 de-
feat Treaty.--But case never yet occurred In
which Treaty of Peace approved BY the Execu-
tive was rejected by the Senate, and We cannot
believe this will prove an exception tIyiers .
Texas Annexation Treaty not one of Peace
but of War
But, while we believe the Treaty will be sp-
proved by our Senate, We are not without appre-
tensions of its fate at the other extremity. Ab-
vurd A. il il on our part to give Fifteen Millions OF
Dollars for an accession Of territory which we have
DO use for it must still be bitter humiliation to
Mexico to see herself reduced to little more than
half her original dimensions and there Will doubt
less be strong opposition Oh that side to the rat-
fcation OF the Treaty. 1t is suggested that Mr.
Polk il privately advised that the Treaty Will be
rejected by tho Mexican Congress, and that he
means to urge and secure its approval here 80
that, after it has failed in Mexico, be can turn round
70 the People and say, See how We have offered
ito make Peace, but Mexico will not consent
Don't you all see that we have no alternative bu
80 fight IL 1t not or time that all Of you should
'turn in and supper, vigorous prosecution OF th'
'WGr--ln this way it is suggested Mr.. Poll
NAV hope TO rally the country round him and secur
his own reelection. Let US keenly and oooily 90
serve the course Of events.
