Old ZGct is doing Lc'ier Than any Of them ~
This was the exclamation of a jealous Free
Sol man to Us not long since. As 1t was made
with considerable emphasis, and by very ear
nest opponent of Gen. Taylor's nomination and
election, we stopped TO learn in what particular
ne thought Gen. Taylor was doing better than
any OF them" He said that Clay, Webster,
Cass and Buchanan. were all in favor of Ter
ritorill Government for New Mexico, without
the Proviso, which he believed would result IN
the extension Of slavery. But Gen. Taylor's
plan IS to admit California, and then say to New
Mexico, form your State Government and ask
for admission, as ca iiouia has done" " The
result" SAID the free soilcr, ." would surely be
that New Mexico would forthwith ask to come
in as free State. as did California, before sa-
very could gain foo'h ID there. We cordially
agreed with our Free Sol friend and set HIM
down for more candid and reasonable man
tuan we had before considered him.-PoHiand

II Texas meant to abide by the resolutions
of annexation, and to claim anything under

forthwith to pass law, securing freedom to
