The PRESIDENT UPON ORIGINAL TAYLcR MEN.
A pretty good story is going the rounds just
now, showing the Presidents opinion Of Tay-
lor men and giving somewhat Of a clue to the
recent appointments. One thing is certain
that it possesses at least as much truth as nine
tenths of the stories afloat.
A Mr.. - being somewhat dissatisfied
with the way in which things are going, called
at the the white House yesterday, and after
shaking hands with Gen. Taylor, gave vent to
his feelings:-
Mr.. President. pve called to see you about
a matter which is ofmdch importance to your
friends, if not to yourself. You see my IA
Their and myself, and most of the the people
where we live, came outin favor of your cleo
ton in preference to that of the great states
man of the party We supported you, Cen
eral, and ran some risk, in bring forward a mil
itary man in preference to such a statesman
as Clay. Now, after all that, it does seem
somewhat strange that all the prominent ap-
pointments you have made should be from the
ranks of that section of the party which did
all in its power to defeat your nomination, an d
il they absolutely didn't vote against your cleo
ton, did nothing to forward it. Now Gen
eral, we want to know the reason Of all
this1n .s.,DH ... ... r-.
The President, after some reflection, replied
=" Why. you see, sir, some one has sent me
an autograph letter Of General Washington,
in which he says he has no friends to reward
and no enemies to punish and | have deter.
mined to follow that great mpp's illustrious
precepts."
Mr.-,-" That's very true, hut then
you have made appointments; and strange to
say, they are all from the ranks Of those who
opposed your nomination, Now your old
friends, who took you up in preference to the
great statesman of the party, complain that
their claims are overlooked"
The Presidont-Well, well, the fact is, l
have come to the conclusion that these people
who took me up in preference to the cmincn
statesmen whose names were before tho con-
%vention, wcre--(here e pricked up his
cars and put ON his blandest SMILEY - were such
id fools that they don't deserve any Off
ces!"
The last seen Of Mr. Two at the rail-
road Office, where he was purchasing a ticket
for the North.

THE SLAVE SHIP.

Wide DER the tremulous sea,
The moon spread her nautle of light,
And the gale. gently dying away.
Breathed soft on the bosom of night
On the forecaste Maratan stood,
And poured forth his sDrrewful tale;
His tears fell unseen in the flood;
His sighs passed unheard in the gale
"Ah! wretch" in wild anguish he cried,
From country and liberty torn;
All Alaratan, would thou had's died,
Ere Ger the salt waves thou vert bone.
Th.' the groves Of Angola stray'd;
Love and hope made my bosom their home;
There | talked with my favorte maid,
Nor dreaml Of the sorrow to come.
From the thicket the man hunter sprung,
My cries echoed loud thro' the air $.
There was fury and wrath on his tongue;
He was deaf to the voice of despair.
Now We tears, down my cheeks, ever flow,
Still let sleep from my eyeGs depart;
And still may the sorrows Of wo
Drink deep OF the stream of my heart
But hark DER the silence Of night
My Adia's accents hear;
And mournful, beneath the wan light,
see her lOv'd image appear.
Slow Ger the smoohe ocean she glides,
As the mist that hangs Ii /. TT on the wave;
And fondy her partner she chdes,
Who fingers 50 long from his grave
ooh Maratan haste thee she cries,
"fere the reign Of oppression is DER;
The yrant is robbed of his prize,
And Adila's sorrows no more.
Now sinking amidst the dim ray,
Her form seems to fade on my view;

She beckons--and | must pursue
Tomorrow the white man, in vain,
Shall proudly account me his slave;

And rush to the realms OF the brave''
