1.-THE incoming President repeats emphatically
the declaration Of his purpose not to be ere" par
tzan President but "to try to be President Of the
American people. To succeed in this purpose he
will have $40 try" very hard. We have very little
hope that he will succeed. - Union, Jan. II.
We believe, the Union had peyy little
hope, that Gen. Taylor would succeed, in
either Of the battles which he fought in Mex
leo, or in the more recent conflict at the
polls, but so it is, the old Hero has way Of
trying to do a thing, that invariably results
in success. At all events, if the General
does not succeed in being the President Of
the American people, it willno be for want
Of trying.
