GESTLEMEN Although we differ politically, 1 am sure
you VIII be willing TO obge me in small matter Of bu
sness, even may have some political bearing,
know not whom / can address except YOU I have no
personal acquantances in Washington, and know only
Gen Taylor, and the conductors OF the three public jour
mails there by repute should have addressed either the
editors oil the National lntegencer the Republic but
rumor says there is feud between them and their respect
I'VE friends and after much inquiry and dgent exami-
nation, have been unable 10 ascertain which OF these
is the accredited organ OF the President and hscabinet
and thinking my communication might be suppressed II
should fall into the hands OF the rejected one have pre-,
eed to inust il to frank and decided opponents. and to
throw myself upon their justice and generosity.
Our election is APPROACHING, and we are in want OF
some aid IRON abroad The Wllmot Proviso question
tiers very largely and very properly into our canvass for
canal commissioners and, inasmuch as we wish to sup
port candidate the ground that he is both ugain
vices OF some one who can establish and vndicate this
successfully. We understand that the Hon. Truman
Smith, Justly distinguished senator Of the United
prepared for him circulate by the members Of the cab
met, and Of the objects OF this communication is
request you TO ask the Hon. Mr. Smithf he is still in
the employ OF the cablnet-to forward few OF each
kind to this place, under his own frank, that we may
know they are genuine. II has been suggested to US
here through source highly confidential, that after
give Mr. Smith benefit and close The engagement for the
SEASON and il So we hope to be able to procure his
sona attendance You are requested to show him this
communication, or to to him that in his engage
ments with the cabinet perm we should be glad to EN-
ploy him for few days al the same rate paid by the
cabinet namely, IS per day As the business in
his line is mainly over, he will not expect to be found "
but, rather than dispense with his services we will
"fnd" him, if he will !" board round" The railroad fare
here will be but trine. He doubtless knows the price
Of the second class cars; and he chooses disguise
himself as baggage freight, thing easily done, and
"eat himself" on the way up the charges will be merely
nominal. F.
However unacceptable il may be to you and the loco
oco party generally should be guilty OF unwarrantabe
conceament If hesated declare the qualification ex-
perenced by the wings here the removal by General
Taylor of all democrats, the French minister included,
and the appointment of good and faithful wings in their
places The French minister has sympathy in this
quarter. He has been open and bold, not to say Of
fensive advocate of democratic doctrines and had
right to expect to hold Office under wing adminstra
ton General Taylor will now supply his place with
some good wing. and trust Pennsy lvania will be
overlooked in the selection.
have read of controversy between Mr. Clayton the
able Secretary OF State and Mr. Champion, the acting
British minister, and have had fears that General
Taylor might remove this minister also. But am free
to confess justification for this removal
Mr. Champion is and always has been decided wing,
and warm political friend of General Taylor and his
administration, and il would be merely removing one
wing to make room for another. Even the locofocos
cannot desire this You will of treat this as con-
fdenta except to the Hon. Mr. Smith, of Connecticut
for it might njure me among my wing friends if they
knew corresponded with locofocos
