Gen. Taylor,s inaugural.

The Liverpool Times of the oath uIt, in speaking
OF the Inaugural Address, says:
sIhe brief, temperate, but eloquent inaugural
address Of the new President of the United States
has been read IN England with feelings Of consider
able satisfaction, The tone of manly candor and
moderation which prevails in every line gives am
pie security, not only to the citizens of the United
States, but to those of every country in the world
that the peaceful relations which now so happily
subsist between the nations Of Europe and the
great Republic of America will not assume a war
like aspect whatever cause or quarrel may unhap-
PLY arise, until President Taylor has exhausted
every resort Of honorable diplomacy before appeal
ing TO arms So long as this honorable principle
is made the basis of the conduct of American
statesmen towards England especially, they need
not fear but that shall be aetuated by the same
high-minded generous feeling. .
The London Standard says Of it:
@The inaugural address of General Taylor, brot
7 by the Europa, has excited good deal of attenz
ton and has met with almost universal approba-
ton. The decided manner in which the President
has pronounced for maintaining pacific relations
with all foreign States is viewed with much salts
faction, and bears out the general views we ex-
pressed some months ago relative to the character
of the policy he would likely pursue in his dis
charge of the duties which have now deyolyed
upon him. Not the least important part of the
address is that which relates to the proper pro-
lection to native industry, whether agricultural
or manufacturing. and which Gen. Taylor has
ntnlated shall receive every encouragement and
protection at his hands that is necessary

and to hold the literary pilerer up to the contept
which he merits Notwithstanding the close SINH

made the most of the idea, having dressed it up in

Being themselves behind the date fixed

Commissioner had been equally tardy in

The NeaO Territories.-Dis Dispatches, we
learn, have been received by our govern
ment, from California and New Mexico,
stating that both these Territories will be
applicants to the next Congress for ad-
mission into. the Union. The primary
measures are now being taken to accom-
plish the object. New Mexico, with lis
population of $4,000, is already compe.
tent TO admission, and the population of
California is daily increasing. Its per-
manent population by the next session of
Congress, will no doubt be sufficient to
demand the doors to be opened to its ad,
mission among its sister States. This will
settle the question which has lately crea-
ted so much disseuson in Congress. in a
way that must prove satisfactory to all
2arties.-PhI. Ledger.

have nominated THOMAS G. Polk fol-

That gallant Wing lady editor of the
Yazoo Wig. thus urges the Wings to
action:
"Never were the prospects of the
Wings of Mississippi so cheering. The
Locofocos have chosen ticket that gives
but little satisfaction to their party. The
north has been treated with contempt,
and most of the Offices given to the in.
cumbents, or men living in or near the
capital. The Office holders might as
well have held Cabinet Coucil, and re-
nominated themselves, and then called
upon the sovereigns to vote for them.
Never was so much dissatisfaction in the
Locofoco ranks--never did they present
such vulnerable ticket. Gen.Quitman's
is the only name that carries any prestige
with it. And he can easily be beaten, if
the Wings exert themselves to spread
light among the people. Mississippi has
so long been saddled with the oi-dsant
Democracy, that she, like Snbad, with
the old man on his back, finds it hard 10
get rid of the burden. But there is one
consolation, the Democracy" like the
"old man" in Siubad, are intoxicated;
long years of rule and good living have
made them nerveess. Now is the time TO
shake them of: o, Wings! sleep not.
till this incubus is shaken of. Let our
noble Stale stand out redeemed from Lo.
cofoco domination"
