WHO'LL TAKE THE BETl

We will bet Pumpkin 10 large size,
Squash that in the event Of General Tay
lor's election, the Editor of the Union vii
become his warm supporter. When We
say this We do not speak lightly nor unad
visedly. We have reason potential 70,
our opinion. Ia the las, Union, speaking
of the friends Of General Tay Tor, the Ed
tor says
"And 10 carry out all their projects they
would put mere soldier into power, who
is no politician"
Now, we we'll remember TINT precisely
similar objection was urged by Mr.. Richie
against Gen. Jackson. "General Jackson, II
SAID Mr.. Richie, was no politician" but
:" mere soldier who would turn the cabinet
into camp, and, instead Of State Paper,
give US bulletin" This was his oblec
ton then to the Old Roman, and yet we
found him afterwards the most devoted Of
his friends and supporters. Why NAV he
no, 20 through the same process now =
We think he viii, and If he would only say
one thing, we would be cock sure " Of IT,
II he will jus, say tina, General Tay lor's
election will be curse to his country !"
we will go our pic That he is Wing by

GEN. CASS AND ABOLITION Pc.
TIrIONS.

/ A few weeks since, we ndduced from IN,
journals or the Senate, official evidence
that General Cass, by presenting petitions
praying that Texas might not be admitted
INTO The Union as a State with consii,u
ton tolcrating slavery, aud also by present
ing resolutions ofihe Legislature Of Mich.
gan in favor of the Wilmot Proyiso, had
fully admitted the principle tina, Congress
ought to receive and respectfully consider
such petitions and resolutions. II is for
acknowledging this very principle that Mr..
Fillmore IL accused Of aboli,ionism. His
votes, which have been so scdulousIy gath.
cred from the journals, prove nothing far.
ther than this; that he was in favor Of re
celsing petitions Of every sort, no matter
what their objects nigh, be.
We have now TO produce still stronger
proof lha, Gen. Cass, in the Senate Of tho
United States, have his sanction to the prin-
ciplc, iha, abolition petitions Of the wors,
stamp. mus, be respectfully received aud
entertained by Congress. The following is
an extract from the journal Of the Senate ::
Mr.. Cass presented two petitions Of
citizens Of Psnnsy'raaic, praying such an
amendment of tho Constitution and laws Of
the United States AS SHALL ABOLISH
SLAVERY THROUGHOUT THE u.
MON, and petition Of cilizens and fe
male inhabitants Of Pennsyirnnin, praying
The adoption Of measures FOR REPEAL.
