Extract Of alsttsr to the Editors. dated June g.
NO one has right to complain of General Taylor fol-
an apparent violation Of his verbal and written pledges
effect OF the English language from other people, and has
openly promulgated his singular versions and il is
tanly fair that he should have the full benefit Of his
You win recolect that the editor Of the Cincinnati
Sgna wrote able editorial and enclosed it to Gen.
erai Taylor then in Mexico This editorial contained all
ns e. which the Generals letters
the Identical language of the famous editorial From il

Now the General answered the letter containing this
editorials said he had read il, and gave date, and
cluded thus that he had "a high opinion and decided
approval OF the sentiments and views contained in your

views and sentiments OF said editorial Not so. The
General says in his letter to his Alabama friend that he

desire that occason has been my uniformly

were held, my approval Of his maintaining them"
How beautifully expressed This singular custom Of
saying one thing and meaning anything else than what
was said would have been feather in the cap OF the
"Le Magician" or Talleyrand.

ConSiuers tnal the sRna taylor ana the General lay
utter strangers cash other, that the Sgna
Taylor did not care hg whether the General Taylor APP
proved disapproyed OF his holding not holding any
opinion he might choose TO maintain or oppose
Apply this novel custom to the many apparent false
hoods and false pretences OF General Tayos numerous
letters, and like charity, it covers multitude OF aber
rations from truth and fair dealing Thus when the
General wrote to Dr. Deloney, that the people were
entitled to know the opinions of candidates for Office
he meant that his opinions were as
Ground as a hoop and deep as CUP,
And all the kings oxen could not draw them up"
To this day, it is all as to what the General
is up to. The wing press complain that the opposition TO
this nondescrp administration by the democratic press is
OF the nominal President There is much ruth this;
and all we can reply that il is often necessary in the
moral and political, well as in the mathematical
sciences, to argue from that which is known to that
which is unknown. And that as we know the Presi-
dents cabinet to be sorry SET and trace their tracks
through all the devious paths of bankism, tarism,
federalism, fee.sosm and abolitionism and probably
tons and to the conclusion that this administration
will be an imbecile, aborve affair, willing to revive all
the odious measures which have been over and again
condemned by the people, without the power to effect
their object.
Our prospects in this State are cheering Old Whitley,
to my surprise, was able to carry Fillmore through the
last canvass; but am much mistaken if Ewing and
Collamer have not broken him down.
From the signs OF the times would say, that the
wings have gained the Offices under false preiences but
that is all. They will not be able to subvert single
leading measure Of the late administration The only
danger is that, desparng Of carrying any wing measure
their maevolence may induce them to concentrate their
energies on the passage of calculated to dis
solve the Union. PHlLO-HEROlC AGE.
