Chairman stated that the object was to appoint dele
gates to meet in your City, on the second Monday IN
June.
Mr.. D. Taylor, the present nominee of the party

in attention. We were very much pleased with the
Young orator and have no doubt, that before the
naign is over be will prove himself superior to any
one that the Know Nothings can command. We
should not like TO cross swords with him. His re-
marks were brief but he stated that be should NEE!
every one at their own homes and that he would be
glad 10 meet his opponent, whoever he should be
any where and as often he pleased to call him out
We think in Mr.. Taylor, the party has much to be
proud Of DR.. w. c. Vikings and MIR R. Strange

the year ne Quilted America. He was then living in
hired furnished house in Carlton Gardens, London,
from which he was few months aferward elected
tor non payment of rent. He then mentioned to me
that he hal cen subjected TO the grossest maItreat-
ment and ndgnities while in the United States that
his supplies &c. had been intercepted by Louis Phil
ppe that he never entered place of public enter
talnment or maison de jeu without being in danger
OF assault, and that he had even been subjected to
the outrage of arrest in order that his papers might
be rifled during his absence.
In all this too, believe he strictly spoke the truth
inasmuch as il but the counterpart of what every
political exile of the slightest Importance experiences

however. in terms of great Indignation concerning il

of my quitting London in 1854, he had not paid the

for several personal ornaments which he pawned
