the latter fit to make certain animadvcrsions

upon the matter before the House, of approprating

OUR NEXT GOVERNOR.

Who is to be our next Governor? That is the ques-
ton We have heard several gentlemen mentioned
who, no doubt are worthy Of the honor but we have
our choice and have hesitation in recommending to
the consideration of the public Col. WILLIAM ].
TAYLOR as one on whom we would be glad to see
the honor conferred
We do this not to the dsparagement Of others but
there is no one in the commonwealth more deserving
our esteem and confidence than Col. TAYLOR. If we
were disposed to attempt to speak of his virtues and
cxcellences, We should certainly fail in doing them
iustice-and time and space would not permit us,
five were so disposed to set forth the past services
ofhis ancestors Therefore, we must content ourselves
with mentioning the fact that purer patriots than the
TAYIORs never lived. Col TAYLOR was born and
raised amongst us-his interest is ours-hs feelings
must be ours Also and who could choose to fill the
gubcrnatoral chair with honor to the State and
fathfulness to the people than Col TAYLOR? We an
swer this question with candor and simplicity, and say,
none.
We hope, Mr.. Editor you will admit the above has
tily written thoughts into the columns of the Journal
and obige A CO-OPERATIONIST.
