DIED..

Departed this life, in the county of Duplin,
few DAYS since, Miss Amelia Faison, in the 18th
year of her age, and daughter of the late kilbce
and Mary Faison. She was gifted with the most
fectionate disposition, true amiablencss of char
acter, and sweetness of expression she was en-
teared to all who knew her, and bequeathed
through her untimely death, to bereavcd family,
the memory of her spotless Innocence. In clo-
sing the last tribute of respect and gratitude it is
only necessary to say this promising lady bore her
affection with great fortitude, after painful
and protracted illness of six months we tender
to her afflicted and weeping relations, the assur-
ances of our sincere coincidence on TINS SAD pc
reavement, trusting that kind Providence "nlcn
tomners the wind to the shorn lamb, will sustain
them in this their day of tribulation.
The dust lies now where once it lay,
No mortal hand could save 1t;
The shirt has left its timed clay
And gone to God who gave tom

Free. Soil Coalition gre the Opin-
ions Of Gen. Taylor 1.-The Republic is now
the acknowledged and confessed organ Of Gen.
Taylor and the cabinet. 1t is the favorite or
gan of the cabinet. 1t has secured all the
"spoiIs" which the cabinet and the President
have the power TO bestow upon it, to the ex-
clusion of the National Intelligences, which
is the organ of the whig party. The senior
editor of the Republic is known to have the
personal friendship and confidence of General
TAYLOR Rumor, or rather public opinion now,
saws he wrote one or both OF the old Gener-
ais Allison letters, and also his Pascagoula
speech, which he made such bad work in de-
livering. The Republic cannot, therefore,
with any propriety or reason, say that it is
not cognizant of Gen. Taylor's political views
and opinions.
Now, inasmuch as the Republic is very
loud in its clamor against the democratic par
ty in New York for settling their dssentions
and again uniting in battle against the wings,
and also very loud in denouncing the democ-
racy for forming coalition, as it alleges, with
the free sellers, we have right to ask it 10
inform the public in relation TO the sentiments
of Gen. Taylor on the subject of free-soil and
the Wimot Proviso.
We therefore put the question direct to the
OCHs 4dyIOl III lawn VI TIC
free-soil doctrines' Is he in favor of further
extension of slavery? Is he in favor of the
Wimot Proviso Will he sign bill con-
tanning the Wilmot Proviso, if such bill is
passed by Congress: We desire distinct and
categorical answers to these questions; and
the Republic has no right now TO evade them
If it does, we shall call upon the people oil
the South TO infer, from its silence, that GEM
TAYLOR is in favor of the Wllmot Proviso, and
will sign a bill containing tin short, that
he is a free soier. If it will not answer ou
interrogatories, let it not say another word a
bout coalition between the democracy an'
the free-soilers. Its hypocrisy will then b.
too palpable to deceive anybody.
We would call the attention of our trIend
in Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisi
ana, 10 the response which the organ OF Gen
Taylor may give to our inquiries. 1t is yer.
flippant in charging upon the democracy
coalition with free-soilism, but 1t dare not Sa.
that Gen TAYLOR aviH not approve and sign
bill containing the WiImot ProUiSo. And from
lis silence the people of the South will know
what inference to draw. All its noise an
clamor against the democracy and the demo
cratic press is only intended to blind and hood
wink the South, and keep that portion OF tn
Union attached to the administration unit
they evade the terrible issue by some luck
event in the chapter of accidents, OF until tn
people of the South are awakened from the
delusion by the actual signing Of the Witmt
ProUaSo by Gen. Taylor Union.

an account of the Winnebago Indians, who
were removed from Wisconsin into Minneso-

the territory, with view TO future Indian diff
fcultes, with special care for the formation

that great good might be done by the general

of them disconnected.
