The Presidents Decease.

In our last issue we had barely time 10 an
nounce the melancholy intelligence of the dealt
of the late Chief Magistrate of the nation
General Zachary Taylor.
The American people are again called upoI
to mourn the departure of one who has received
their highest honors. The year eighteen hun
tIrcd and fifty, in gathering to the g tombs Of
the Capulets y the lamented Taylor, only adds
another distinguished name to its ''illustrious
dead
BETTING testimonials of respect to his mem
DRY, we are glad to perceive, are being made
throughout the Union.
The death of a distinguished American
one who has done service for his country ii
Legislative halls or on the field of battle, is Z
fit occasion for an appropriate manifestation o
the public esteem which his conduct has merit
ed. But in the death of one, who, by the sui.
frages of large portion of his fellow citizens
is elevated to a station, in honor and dignity
inferior to none in the world, public calamity
indeed, is felt
General Zachary Taylor was distinguished
for no particular qualities-political sagacity
was not his distinguishing trait-it was his
heightened patriotism, as exhibited on the bat
tie fields of his country-on the plains of Mex
ico-that caused the American pulse to vibrate
in unison with his own. As a patriot, we
honor him-as patriot, revere his memo
ry-as patriot, he will be enshrined in the
hearts of his countrymen.
However moumful this event to the feelings
Of the American people, we are not so prone Ia
regard the death of Zachary Taylor in so ca
lamitous public light as are some of our con-
temporaries. In point of craftsmanship no one
will doubt but that his successor is far his SUI
perior. In the peculiar juncture of national
affairs, it NAV, however, be true, that Gen.
Taylor, from his position as Southern man
commanded more confidence in that section OF
the Uuion than will Mr.. Fillmore. But the
construction of the new Cabinet, we venture to
predict, will more than compensate for the loss
whici, they sustain by the death of one, who,
although ostensibly in their interests, had his
hands completely tied by his Cabinet.
While we heartily join in paying all respect
to the memory of the lamentcd Taylor, we
trust that the safety and perpetuity of our
country will not be hazarded by the adoption
tered alone in him whose loss we mourn.

On Saturday morning last the splendid steam
sawmill owned by Messrs. S. W & II. Rogers,
in the north part of this city, was consumed
by fire, together with large quantity of lum-
Der. The loss cannot be less than fourteen
thousand dollars-on which there was but
$4,000 insured. The mill was erected but
about two years since, and was one of the best
in our city. AN the boards, wood, shingles,
sc. around the mill were burnt. The situation
of the mill being five miles from where our en-
gines are located, rendered it impossible for our
FIRE department to render much aid, though
had they been notified they might have IN
Goubtediy done much service in the way of
saving much of the lumber.

leading wings say they despise the abolition
resolves passed by the House the other day, and
'ha' 'ney only voted for them for political eff

game. How long will democrats permit them
selves to be triaed with in this way, when the
difficulty can so easily be removed by letting
every individual in and out of Congress treat
of this question independent of politics, for il
is the resolutions Of Legislatures that gives this
question any importance to produce the serious
troubles existing.
