Reid (DemocraD in the election for governor, OF
just 1000 since 1913, when Manly's majority was

than those above reported there will be in the next
Legislature a Democratic majority Of four in the

NEW ORLEANS, August !, 1850.
Since the death Of the late amented President oft he
United States various representations of the state of
his private aalrs have been made the public prints
which are full of errors and misstatenlents Some
| OF them are calculated to give pain to many who
loved him in life, and revere his memory from the
apprehensions they express that he has left an en-
barrassed estate and family nsufhccntly provided
Tor The following passage from letter, published
originally IN the New York Express, enters into
particular details of purchases losses, and debts,
which present extremely unfavorablc future:
General Taylor, regret to learn, leaves his bu-
slness affairs III a very unfinished and somewhat
doubtful condition. When he left for Mexico, it is
stated tlat III three sealed letters he left direction
Tor the management OF his property, in case of his
death there, In which was supposed 10 be a will
and these three letters were not opened till after
his burial here-but no will was amongst them,
and the directions applied to property which is
now almost wholly changed in its form.
"lndeed, his family now haveno home, and there
lore, Mrs. Taylor, 1t Is supposed, will not return TO
louisiana Ills plantation on the Mississippi has
been sold since be came here to enable him TO pur-
chase sugar plantation below, so that that home
is lost. Previously, however he had purchased
another, midway plantation, but that has turned
out 10 be "A very Improbable piece of property,
making no crops, in consequence Of being flooded
repeatedly Then the homestead is gone to make
one payment on a sugar plantation, ON which some
thing like seventy or eighty thousand dollars must
now be dueand the middle plantation is under
water. Probably some of the Presidential salary
was relied upon To meet the further payment on
the sugar plantation, bat that salaryis gone. You
see from these general facts, that General Taylor
died in very unfortunate time for the interest of
his family. He had previously, however, to Col.
Bss's marriage with his daughter, settled upon
her considerable sum of money"
These representations, we are happy to be able
TO say are unioundod in every particular. IA his
agents for more than twenty five years, we can
say with some certainty that he leaves TO his
family, in bank stocks and other valuable prop
crty, the amount of two hundred thousand dol
lara.
He never, 10 our knowledge, was indebted To
any one. We have never his obligation in
the shape Of note He died without owing a
dollar.
Iiy making this public, you will remove very
injurious impression, aud make known facts that
will cause general qualification.
Very respectfully, MAUNsEL Ware & Co.
