DoroLAs ron PREsIDEST.-Ho Miles Tay-
lor, an influential member of the House from
Lousiana, has written letter, under date of
January TO- in favor of the nomination of Mr..
Douglas for the Presidency. Mr.. Taylor says:
"Politicians may say what they will sub
siazed presses may persistently misrepresent (;
but if there is any one thing clear to any unbi-
ased mind, ii is this that Stephen A Douglas,
at this time, has full possession of the popular
mind of the North, which is truly, and on
principle, favorable to the maintenance o! all
the rights of the South under the Constitution
and in the Union. II he should be the nomi-
nee of the Democratic party for the Presidency
ut the next election, my hope and belief is, that
nnder the influence OF the enthusiasm excited
among his supporters by bis great qualities, a
mighty wave Of patriotism aud devotion to
the Constitution, will roll over the whole North
and sweep away every vestige OF Black Repub-
licansm and its denominations from the high
| Aroostook and Cape May to the EXTREMIST por.
tions Of Iowa and Minnesota.
