From the Richmond Whig.
Death of General Taylor.

The announcement of this mourniul event will
fill the heart of this entire nation with sorrow.
4 Party animosty will be buried with his mortal
Mains and the country will only remember his
great and glorious services.
1t is not for US TO write the euogy Of General
Taylor. 1t is inscribed upon the hearts of his
trymen, and will live to all time upon the page of
I that history which he assisted to render bril-
liant. Yet something would say Of that noble
simplicity of character, which is so often the
compartment of great deeds as It is the character
istic OF great mind In this respect, in his
calm superiority to all personal considerations in
the discharge OF his duty, he bears striking
other great son OF Virginia, the late Chief Justice
Marshall. The present age will not estimate him
at his proper value. II will only be when party
feeling shall have subsidized with time and the his.
tory OF this day shall have been written by those
who bore no part in making it, that he will appear
to the world what he really was, the man. cnphati-
cally, OF his time; the man whose character was
such as to impress itself upon, and give tone to,
his age.
We have never known this community SO deeply
{ affected by any event. From the very moment
when II was hrst announced that General Taylor
was dangerously ill, there degree of uneasi-
ness pcrvading society through all It's ramcations,
which denoted the deep interest felt in the issue.
The anxiety generally diffused had in it nothing
OF a political cast; it was such man may feel
when he knows that his nearest and dearest friend
lies at the point Of death, and that the next mo
ment may bring the fatal intelligence that he is
more IL Is honorable, IN the highest degree, to
our population, that no grain of partisan feeling
| seemed to minge with the deep sentiment of min
gled hope and apprehension which pervaded all
hearts. They felt for him for one of themselves
and they mourn for him a might mourn for
his father. The transformations virtues of Zachary
Taylor had made deep impression upon the peo-
pie OF this Union and now that he is no more the
fact will appear.
We confess that we have never been so paralyzed
by any event which has happened in time. We
could not bring ourselves to the belief that he would
die, and we continued to hope after learned
that his physicians had given up in despair. When
the issue was at last placed beyond doubt, though
We had already received intmations which might
have prepared US for the worst, it yet came upon
with all the suddenness of a complete surprise. We
can hardly, even now, reconcile ourselves to the
contemplation OF the mournfu reality; yet we can
read 1t, but too clearly, in the gloomy faces which
we see around US, in the low and whispered tones
oil those who crowd our office TO seek confirmation
of the sad tidings and in the involuntary ighness
OF the uptoe step with which they cross our floor
as though,they were in the presence of death, and
were fearful OF disturbing the last sleep OF him who
10 gone forever
The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1850-07-13

himself 10 bc the advocate al peace That however
great the amount OF glory achieved by himself
and the officers and army under his command, TO
him ii dust in the balance compared with
the suffering and desolation which had been caused
Not that lac would underrate the value OF military
service; the maxim he sought TO inculcate was,
that peace the true policy OF all nations, and
parucu lary Of own; and to call to the minds OF
the excited and admiring crowds that, however
beautiful and captivating the pageant il could not
divert his mind from the realities of war, as seen
IN the nanged corsc the dismantled dwellings,
the smoking ruin the sacked cities, the tears
OF the orphan, and the waiting OF the widow Ne
yer was there more noble spectacle presented TO
civilized and Christian people than General Ia,
Tor exhibited on this occasion.
General Taylor was true patriot He said he
would be President of the whole country--hc should
make Washington his guide. He knew no North
no South, East, West. His large and noble
heart comprehended and took in all the parts, and
blended them together like the hues of the rainbow
He was in the largest and best sense of the word,
an AMERICAN PATRIOT, who, ON all occasions, sen
dcavorcd.to do his duty"
In the providence Of God he has been taken from
us, and nought remains for morals but to bow with
humble submission to the decree. We feel wholly
inadequate to speak, in fitting terms, eulogy of
General Taylor. Others will do that hereafter and
though they possess the powers and eloquence OF
Pericles, they will find in his life theme as glo-
rious the orator of old ecr found among the most
iustrious of the Grecian dead
We loved General Taylor. Our grief at his loss
is not that Of mere partisan for the loss of the chief
of his party. We looked forward with high hopes
to the glory OF his administration. We looked upon
him as THE MAN, raised, like Moses of old, by the
Almighty, to lead his countrymen out from
uonal and party bondage into the green pastures,
and amid the living waters, of national American
brotherhood. But, alas he has been taken away
gone when we most desired him to stay
''Lke a summer dried fountain,
When need was the sorest.'

The following minute was adopted by the Pres
bytery Of Philadelphia the 10th inst, when the
intelligence of the death of the late President of the
United States was received
|. The Presbytcry of Philadelphia unite with
their fellow citizens at large deploring the dea tn
OF General ZACHARY TAYLOR, late President OF
the United States, who expired at Washington last
evening.
2. Without venturing into the arena of party
pohtcs, this Presbytery feel called upon to saw
that the wisdom, patriotism, and integrity of Gen
Taylor, render his sudden removal at this mpor-
tant crisis in our public affairs great national be-
reavement, if not national Judgment.
g. Reverently acknowledging the righteous SOW.
eregnty OF God well IN the affairs of nations as
OF individuals, this Presbytery cannot but regard
the death OF another President within so brief pc
rod, as a solemn rebuke for SINS and as an i'm
prossve admonition 10 rulers to RENE mber their
personal accountability TO God, TO cultivate sent-
ments of mutual forbearance and Cancellation, and
TO pursue that policy which may be demanded by
a pure and comprehensive patriotism, looking 20
Of lie incstimable blessings
4. The Prcsbytery, if they rightly interpret this
dispensation, find in it a call for deep and general
humiliation on account of the sins which dehe the
land, and an incentive to united and earnest PRAYER
on the part of all Christian people for the merciul
lnterpositon OF Providence in our behalf
o. we tender our respectful and cordial sympa-
Thy to the bcrcaved family of our late President,
commencing them TO the care of our common God
aud Father, and duplicating for them those pre-
clous consultations which TO be found only in
the promises of the gospel and the minisratons of
the Divine comforter.
