PRESIDENT TAYLOR AND FREE SOIL
During the visit Of President Taylor t.
Pittsburgh, last week, be was INTERCEPTED
in regard to his views on the question o
slavery extension. The President, witt
characteristic candor. responded in sub
stance as follows: Although slaveholde,
himself, be regarded slavery as great NOR
al and political evil, and would be infinitely
rejoiced if il were everywhere utterly ex.
tinguished; he did not believe that Congress
posses ed the constitutional right to interfere
with slavery ia the states wherein it now
existed; but it had the right and should
exercise it, to prevent its extention intr
territory now free. Since he had left
Washington he had received letter in.
forming him that notice had been given to
the Government tina, the people Of Califor-
MIA were about to form State Constitution,
containing the slavery prohibition. and
would apply for admission into the Union
at an early day-he expressed his gratifica
ton at this, and declared that it should re.
ceive bis cordial sanction, as HE WAS UTTER.
LIZ HOSTILE TO THE INTRODUCTION OF SLAVE
RY INTO THE NEW Territories.
We derived the above from we'll known
gentleman of Pittsburgh, who was present
when the President expressed his views. and
It was communicated to us in the presence
Of Gen. Larimer. one Of the leading mem
bers ofthe Free Soil Party. There is nc
question that in reference to Free Soil, as
well as in reference to The Tariff, the Ma
tional Administration will prove that we Of
the North consider orthodox. Why should
the Free Soil men continue to maintain a
hostile attitude towards the National and
State Administrations r. Butler Co. Wing

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DISSOLVED
John Van Buren,, the misunderstanding
"youth," in referring to his former decIa
ration of a dissolution of the Locofoco par
I ty, made the following remarks in the
Barnburners Convention held recently at
Rome, N. "
81 had occasion to say elsewhere that the
national Democratic party of the Union
was dissolved--not that it was defeated or
annihlated in the States in which it exist
ed. | said they had succeeded in some Of
the States in electing nearly their entire
delegation to Congress. / said that, while
the resolutions stood unrepealed in the
southern States, declaring that under no
political necessity would they support a
man in the Union who was not a thorough
pro-sIavery man, there could be no national
Democratic party, unless we were at once
prepared to stand on the same platform,
and make that test of Democracy. Zap
plause. ! had the highest authority for
this remark. Ibid not pretend to dissolve
the party, but stated merely an humble
fact. [Laughter.] |, was dissolved by the
South long ago. What constitutes ma
tional party? One with single broad ma
tional organization; with members OF it in
the southern States who will vote the reg
ular Democratic ticket, no matter what be-
comes of slavery. There is no such party.
for they have resolved at the South to sup
port no man unless he agrees in opinion
with them, and in opposition to the notori-
GUS convictions. as conceded by the COM
mittee OF the other convention, of the en-
tire North on this subject. | had before
me. also, the fac, that Democrat in Ore
gon, in Vermont. or in Pennsylvania, would
be rejected as an aboi,ionist in Alabama,
if, indeed, he did not suffer serious person
al injury if he went there. They would
regard him as a kind of heathen. How,
then, can we talk of a national party? We
had also the declaration Of what was, by
some, considered the Democratic organ. at
the seat of the Federal Government-the
Washington Tnion-that this was right
that it was not necessary to have nation
al creed--ihat their friends in the various
States could confine their differences to
those States themselves, and tina. the Dem.
ocrats Of no State had right to complain
OF the action Of those Of another. We are
to have thirty little platforms, then, one IN
each State. And was to blame. boy
like me, laughter if | took my slate to 60
home, when the old schoolmarm told US we
were dismissed? Increased laughtcr.]-
Our situation now is entirely different
Nobody pretends that we can stond upon
the southern platform-and nobody pre-
tends that there is any necessity for our
making any national platform. You can
stand, if you choose, with the Nortb-with
Wisconsin, Vermont, Ohio, New Hamp-
shire, PENNSYLVANIA, and Maine. With
any Of those States YOU can stand-or on
can do what is better, and much more to
the honor Of the Democracy of this State
you can stand alone" [Applause.]

FATAL Acc1DESr-Er Extraordinary Oc-
currence-We stated few DAYS ngo, that
Mr.. Henry Platt, Of Philadelphia, an agent
Of the Washington Union and other papers,
was killed recently near Thomaston, Geo.,
by the falling Of decayed tree, standing
on the side Of the road over which be was
travelling in sulkey. His back was bro
ken in three places, also bis neck, arm,
and leg, and his horse also was killed.
The Savannah Republican says:
CAT the time Of the occurrence, there was
no wind abroad or cloud above; without
one word Of warning the poor man was
hurried into eternity, unconscious even Of
the cause Of bis sudden death. Was il the
result Of accident or fate F? or was it the de-
cree Of an inscrutable Providence? A
man who was born in distant part Of the
country happens tobe at a particular spot
in Western Georgia, on a certain day, at 4
certain hour, aye, at a certain moment; and
at that instant tree, which had been bat
Ting the storms Of Heaven for perhaps
century, falls in the stiffness Of noon day."
and brushes him TO death. The coincidence
is as mysterious rs his fate is melancholy.

with thorn; it bled freely; and apply.

wound, she said smiling, Il am sec

scream; and fearing the other young
lady, who loitered behind, had met with
an accident, fastened back 10 assist her,

forth by no worse an accident than had

that the youth. after little reflection,
