The appcarauce of Taylor songs which are enlivening the canvass and stirring up the Clubs, give serious alarm to the official paper. "We did not suppose it possible," sa t a the Washington Union, ''that the Whigs would dare to repeat the humbuggery which they had practised upon a free people at the lafct two elections. It is bad enough," continues the indignant journal, "for them to attempt to palm upon us a candidate who is 'no politician,' uuJer the hope of deluding the voters by the splendor of his military fame.' ' But the enormity of songs that is clearly past endurance. The artillery an J the bayonets one might stand, but w ho can make head against the drum and Ife? I . The following passage from a Whig Circular in Pennsylvania, has aroused the linion's feelings; - . - Committee on Singing. The duties of the inging committee are apparent. Its members bhould be selected from thosn wbohave a talIII for vocal music: and their duty bliould be to prepare themselves with appropriate politi-t-al songs, and lead of ringing them at each meeting of the club. They will contribute much to the spirit of the meetiug." TJV tram the 'Sonth exclaims the Union, tiga inst this musical movement Very good; such vigilance is admirable. L-t the South be warned. The Witmot Proviso put into verse and set to the tune of "Lucy Neal," may beat this moment crossing the Potomac. The South raust undoubtedly be warned otherwise we may sopu hear that Alabama has yielded to a chorus, and that even South Carolin has gone ! for a mere song. The official paper itself ma be captivated for it is said that "music hat charms to soothe the natae breast." The canvass, we may be sure, is now beginning in earnest, since the "Uniou"' shows signs of trepidation and is unwilling to face the music. Cass is not a good nam for a rhyme, no matter how it is spelled. But Rough and Keadj runs well. In this particular, it must be confessed, we have the advantage of the Cassites, and the official paper has some reason to complain of the adverse odds. The canvas on our side will begin, witha grand march and end with a glee. iSalt.

fX5T We find the following excellent articl

communicate'd to the Louisville Journal, and commend it to our Irish friends of the Demo cratic partyiV The facts here stated cannot be controverted: - TO THE FRIENDS OF IRELAND. Recent events that have transpired in Ire land are well calculated to cause universal sor row amongst the friends of Ireland throughout the Uuited States. We find, that, after a long effort to place herself in a situation to meet the approaching struggle with the collosal power 01 England, her chains will'iilevitably b?more tightly drawn, that the shackles which tor ages gaueii ner paisiea arm wiii oe mausun more . t " i i 1 1 1 . nailing, and that the bloodstained' hands of British power will continue to'.rcvel yin the blood til oppressed Ireland ' Such !s the end for the pretnt of the Irish rebellion. S it is uaiurai tome memis ojuvu noeriv to askiiuw .much longer tliosc-outraaea awr.to continue. Cian ottie i nations, our own m particular, stand coldly by wtihout even - otlenug reinonsTan.ee? tannoi Irishmen in America paralyse the uplifted arm that is now raised over their native land? This lsat question I can answer without a dor.bi or hesitation. Irishmen in the United States have it w holly in their power, as 1 shall presently bhov, to strike a mortal blow at England to'strike her in a vital spot, a part of her body where ' she is alone vulnerable. Where then is the Irish man that will not aid in accomplishing so sa cred a duty? 1 think the course needs only to be pointed out and that every Irishman will fly to aid his na'.ive country. It is not necessary that you put your name to a subscription list to raise monev to send ov er the Atlantic where it will be liable to fall into the hands of a British constable, nor need you hhoulder a mu-iket and school yourselves in military tactics to fight England. Napoleon, the renowned warrior, tried this plan with armies which have rarely beeu equalh-d in an cient or modern times, and, under his gigantic 1.1 V I 1 I.. ...... I . rrt mows, x.ngiaua ouiy crew me stronger, inis sagacious wan was not Ion" in finding out that that this was, to use a vulgar expression, liter ally taking the bull by the tail." His next and most t flectual plau was his famous Vcontitiental syitein," which excluded British manufactures from a market on the continent of Europe. Under this system, Eugland was soon made to feel that her case was indeed a fesperate oue. It filled her land with elootn and sadness, and, for the first timelid England feel herself bumbled this was was "taking the bull by the horns." Had t his srstem not ben defeated by the treachery of Napoleon's alius, Englands fate would have been worse than that of any of the other uations over which Napoleon strode as conqueror, for the obvious reason that they fell before a foreign conqueror England would hare fallen' by the hands of her own thildreu in civil wars. Let us look at the condition of Englad since last spring. Revolutions broke out all over Europe which had the effect of prostrating all commercial enterprise and , public works. Credit was ruined. England found thatshe was shut out from a market ou the comment and ruin stared her once more in the face. Every steamship brought us intelligence of the failure of British houses by the wholesale. The hurncan that swept her land brought down the wealthy houses that were considered until then impregnable. . Oh! for the salvation of Ireland, that this storm had been suffered to goon; it would have shaken Edgla od to her lounuation; ner manufactories would have closed for the want of a market; her laboring population, already ripe for a revolution by the movements of the Chartist clubs, would have risen in rebellion. To view it in the most moderate liht possible, it must be ad initted, that, if this storm had not been stopped cngiauu wouiu nave nact too ruuen work at home to be able to attend to crushing poor old Ireland. . . And pray who or what arrested this storm that was veeping England? Why nothing else than the Democratic tarifTcallcd the tariff of -16, which, unfortunately for Ireland, was then mid is now under oprration. . England, iii her distressed situation, found, by tins odious tariff the doors of American ports wide open to re ceive her surplus manufactures, and speedily did she rush them over the Atlantic. , She was lully compensated for the closing of European markets by the one she found here. The. cry pfdistress which threatened to cause hr mammoth bank to stop payment was hushed by American gold, her empty coffjrs were tilled by khipineuts of coin at the rate of one and a half million per month from the United States, and her turbulent population, finding employment, showed no futher dispo sition to engage her vagabond soldiery; so that to reek her vengeance ou uulorluuate Ireland was an easy task. Irishmen, you see the re sult. ' ' Had the w i?e and Rood tarifTof 42.or,as it is called by the frieuds of free trade with Eng land, the "abominable YV hig tarin, been in operation as it should have been, England would have found it to be an abominable tariff indeed another "continental system"ito exclude her from American markets. I boldly ask every Irishman, what, would have been England's late if our doors as well as those of all Europe, had .been closed against her last spring when she was in such a tottering condiiioa. Think you he would have been able, to crush Ireland as she did with scarce an effort? You answer, certaiuly not; for this is clear ly shown by Englauds forbearance, o.itil: her commercial uisircssnadsuusiaeuana uieiieav) shipment of coin from ihe Uuited Slates had put her out of danger. Not till then did she Meem it safe to begin on Ireland. So vou see hat had the abominable Whia tariff" of 42 bee J in operation, England would at Ihii day have itteii crushed by her own weight, and lrso r,i.ti country. ' Irishmen, you now see where toilri' British power in a vulnerable pot. . . ...I. ' .. ' " ' t - At a recent quarterly meeting of iron masters in England, the met tifl ex pressed its sensuf obligation to the oreset enlihteiird and liberal administration of the CJnited States fur the wise (as they called it) revenue system eS: tablished by the JJemocratic party no ;u po - er in the United" States. Indeed many ot th "J - - I j , e members said ther did not know what they would have done had it not been for the tariff of '46, as it was showu that nineteen-twen-tieths of their surplus yield found a good market here, vfbich, under the tariff of 42, would have been compelled to stay at home for want of a market. Now it isa fact well known that about threefourths of the Irish citizens of the United State actually voted for and sustain the Democratic tariff of 46, the very tool of British power. So great an error can be accounted for only by the tact that Irishmen generally have nut viewed this Democratic tariff in its proper light. When they see its bearing, and bow with its aid England has beeu able to crush Ireland, will not every Irishman at the approachingeledions give it a kick toward the infamy it so well dePut restrictions on the trade of England and you will ultimaleljr destroy her. As a mattet

of course she fondly wishes for free trade with the U. Slites tisfche is wore fcenefiited by it than we are. Therefore the; success cf the Whig partv at the approaching election would be fatal to ber hopes of having a continuation of the.lariff of '46 which admits her goods at a very low duty. Can it be wondered at that she will use every effort in her power to secure the free trade candidate for the Presidency? Can you blacis, her if she rscs cunning artifices to make Irishmen in Ameiica votefor Genecal Cass? "io'uaskhow can 'she possibly make Irishmen in the U. States vote for Gm. Cass? I answer that she does, try and try, successfully. Vou have only to introduce the subject "of the Presidential election to au I r Uli man, and he will, with an air;of triumph, point to ihe infamous London press and. say, "look how they vilily Mr. Cass and heap all manner of tbuse

o.i him; in short, the British hates -Mr. Cass, and Mr. Cass cordially hales the British." Now this abuse on the part of England is only a ruse to get you to vote for him; ' he is the very man they want elected. . . 1 suppose the next thing we shall have in the Democratic papers wil 1 be extracts from London naDers lauding Gen. Taylor ' to the skies, and recommending him and the tariff of '42 to your favorable consideration. English editors are well aware of the just hatred you bear them, and that, any person they atlectto hate, you would be most likely to favor, and that any person or measure that should be a favorite with them, would be sure not to rereive your support. In this tvay, England hopes to sustain the tariff of '46, .which suits her well. Irishmen! Its is bad enough ' that England should butcher vour countrymen at home, but it is too bad that by her superior cunninzshe should make you subservient to her wishes here. A Whig or "?6 rOa Taylor. The Whigs ot Alexandria, Virginia, held a great meeting ou the 7th inst. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Fatriot, in speakin of it says . ' ' ' Mr. Upton next introduced the venerable step son of Gen. Washington, George Wash ington lark Lust is, Esq:, a hale, hne-Iookin" gentleman of the olden time, eighty years of age, w ho has been for forty years the leading orator of the country for the cause of Ireland's emancipation, and in whom the Irish ' have confidence. Mr. Custis stepped forward and in a rich, full-toned voice, spoke as follows, holding his auditors spell-bound in admiration, except at such intervals where spontaneous ap plause would break lorth : rellow-countrymen and friend iou see before you on this occasion, an old raau with w hitened locks and a bald head, w ho was born here in the infaticy of .your country, and has grown up with it, in your midst, and seen it become vigorous, and strong and powerful, while lie become old and enfeebled and yet, strange as it may appear, this old man has never yet cast a vole in his life. Although possessing the uecessary free-hold qualification to entitle me to vote iu several counties, had my residence not been in the District of Columbia, yet owing to an injudicious and an unjust Ilw, 1 have hud no privilege of giving a vote. t And now that the inestimable privilege, ;he rieht of suffrage, has come within my reach, tnd 1 am about to avail mytslf of it, you will see an old granajatner cast rns maiatn vote: We are a nation of freemen, the proudest, the most prosperous and hJPpy in the world. Our system of aovernmeut ana our institutions are admirable, conceived -by wise heads aud improved upon, here and there, by good men. It becomes us all to cherish a fona love and regard for our beloved country. We süOuld ry keep the union and harmony of the States in good preservation, and look well to the character of those whom we select to guide the destinies of the Republic. It has been objected to military men, that they are not suitable persons to place at tie head of a civil government.-, I think otherwise. My experience teaches me that there is nothing to fear from the just ambition of a militaryman a, the head of ihz nation. I think mi liary men are the best to tommaud, for they first learn to obey. We have soma experience in the matter of placing military men at the head of the Government. Gentlemen may differ about Gen. Jackson, bull believe he wasa true patriot, and that he would have iven the last drop of his heart's blood to have saved and preserved the Union and its liberties, had fie personal sacrifice been required. No, uo: the old orator before you has live1 J a longtime in this Republic, and has not yt seen the lime to fear to have a military man placed at the head of affairs! In casting about among the Presidential candidates to decide which one shall receive my suffrage, it will be my aim to select the best man. 1 have already scanned their claims. The father of Gen. Cass was a high-minded officer in the old Continental army. The father of Gen. Taylor was a brave and meritorious officer of the Revolutionary army. Gen. Butler also comes from good stock.1 In making my choice, 1 shall pay regard to the services which each candidate has rendered to the country, and I shall prefer the honest man, who has been ever ready to peril his life in the defence of his country, preferring the tented field an I the hard ground for his. bed, wheii his country calls for disservices, to him who prefers wealth and luxury and lounges on silken couches - in perfumed chambers.: 1 shall give my vote cheerfully to honest Zachauy Taylou. And when I deposite it in the ballot box, on the 7lh ol November next, that vote will hail from the sacred shades of Mount Vernon! Long continued applause with scarcely a dry eye in the assemblage. But, my countrymen, the selling sun, emblematic of myself, is departing Irom among you. and adinouihes roe that I must close my remarks. May God protect and preserve our beloved country, and watch over the rulers whom the people may select to guide its des tinies ! . - , Thus spoke this venerable surviving member of the Washington family, the son of Mrs. Washington by her first husband, Mr. Custis. 1 never witnessed a more thrilling scene. It seemed as if the immortal George nashington himself was almost speaking to his countrymen ! Three hearty cheers were given forTaylorfic Fif.'more, and three times three for "Custis," "the old man elequent!" and then the company broke up and dispersed. The Paospvxrr is Mississippi. A gentleman in Vicksburg writes thus to the editor of the Cincinnati Chronicle: Our electors are verr sanguine of carrving Mississippi for the Whigs. Gen. Miles told mi a day or two since that Taylor would double Cass s vote in all the comities he had canvassed, except three. He, vou know, is r ue of the State electors, and has been in the eastern part of the State, the strong-hold of Detnocracy, i ue river counties are. strong in, lue Whig faith, aud will give a large majority for Taylor.
