BosroS--The following are extracts from the
Address Of MAJ or BIGELow Of Boston, TO the Con-
venton OF the City Council:
1t was but few days since that we were en-
gagged In making preparations TO receive General
Taylor, as the guess Of Boston, upon the adjoarn-
ment Of Congress. We were TO have gone to our
gates 10 receive him on the spot where our fathers
received Washington. We were to receive him
with more than the ordinary respect rendered to
Chief Magistrate, because We believed thar he
was like Washington, in the chief excellencies Of
bis character.
We were preparing to meet him who had given
proofs that he had taken Washington for his ex-
emplsr. We were TO lead forth our children to see
him. We were to show him our cty--our public
institutions, and extend 10 him our profuse hospi.
tally. Not because be was TO come as con.
queror, bu, as coming with far greater honors than
the trophies Of war the gloEies Of personal char
acter, which do honor 10 humanity for having been
more conspicuous for his humanity than for his con-
quesis-a humanity far more glorious than the
DE- eds enrolled the bloody annals OF the battle
field. We expected "a meet him, not as coming
from the smoke and carnage Of victory not as
coming from the battered walls of stormed cities
not he rode In triumph over the bloody fields of
the far distant South. We expected to salcte him
a. the victor over hearts-ns triumphant over the
affections Of grateful people, Bot he comes no
more-he will never come. That iron frame which
for so many years resisted the storms Of the es
ments and Of war, has sunk beneath the power of
a conqueror far miehtier than all the armies Of the
globe. That hand (which sWayed the rod OF
empire has relaxed its grasp forever--thst voice
which controlled the tide Of battle, and spoke in
accents OF mercy 70 the vangoshed, is silenced in
death-that eye which 80 often sternly glanced
along the serried ranks OF gallant troops arrayed
for conflict and which but yesterday beamed with
all the Kindness Of social affections, has lost its
luster, and Jnmed forever in the shadow of the
valley"
But bis memory win never perish as long as the
race shall retain of the virtue OF humanity.
While the records OF mankind are preserved so
long will the memory Of Zachary Taylor be en-.
shrned in the hearts OF the enlightened, the good |
and the true Of every land.
