fear not the result. The I'roapet-ta. Richard Tyuer has just returned from the East, having travelled over the northern rout to Boston, and back by Philadelphia and Baltimore. He is known to be no idle passenger through this world. He returns in high spirits 'the triumphant election of Gen. Taylor. lion. E. A. Uannegau. This distinguished citizen of our Slate, visilsd oar place on Monday last, and addressed our itiiens in the Court House. His effort has bee a favorably spoken of, both as to manner and matter. It was not expected he would entirely please the friends of Taylor, yet his speech is represented as having been liberal, gentlemanly and dignified. Hanuegau, in the U. S. Senate, has more than sustained the anticipations of his friends and opponents. On Monday, we are informed, (for we did not hear him) that he did not descend to the clap-trap lieing that Robinson, Whitcomb, Bright, ami all the unprincipled and reckles stumpers of that parly do, who expect to succeed by deception. Mr. II. had a respectable audieuce, the Court House bing nearly filled. ET The "Democratic Review," the leading Journal of the Cass party, has really taken up the cudgel against Gen. Taylor's military reputation, and selects the great battle of Buena Vista for materials to prove that he 'blundered,' was neglectful,' and on the whole, quite unfitted for the station. Pretty soon, probably, we shall see In all the Cass papers, mighty attempts, en a boundless scale, to prove that Gen. Taylor Is a 'granny' and a 'coward and a 'runaway,' and that the battle of Buena Vista was a small affair of a skirmish, which any corporal might have conducted to a successful issue. Well, gentlemen locofocos, or democrats, or

by whatever name you choose, we are ready for you to proceed. You commenced by claiming Gen. Taylor as a Jackson Democrat, whom you wished to have nominated for the Presidency bv your party. Your own records show your estimate of his military talents and his high ahievements. The people now know the man. Hi fame has spread world-wide. We are now prepared to watch your course, and to see how far party prejudice and party aims can lead you, to traduce aud villify a right warm-hearted patriot and a gallant and accomplished leader of the army of your own country, in one of the hard-,

at fought battles and most brilliaut victories in the records of all time. You have attempted to deprive him of every civic virtuehave denied him the possession of an intelligent and cultivated mind and now you are pressing forward to ap this climax of abominable baseness, malignity, envy, and all u-jcharitabteness, in robbing him of his military laurels, and declariug him to be Incompetent and an unpardonable and disgraceful blunderer if not a downright coward. Go on! The people are ready to listen and o stamp your vile calumnies with the seal of

their loathing disgust, by their votes in November next, in favor of him, who, because you eould not seduce, and therefore fear, have determined, if possible, to break down by abuse. Gen. Taylor's fame is safe, try you never so hard to tear out with viperous fingers the golden lines he hes written in his country's history. He lives in the hearts of the people. He will be borne in triumph to rule in wisdom and cautious prudence, over a great and grateful country.

Daprmrnt la Fashionable Life. A transaction in the matter of love and dollars of considerable importance, In certain circles, has transpired in our qity. It appears that not long since two young gentlemen, sons of Mr. G ,were each courting two fashionable ladies of our city the widow L and her daughter the latter lady some fifteen and the former some forty years of age. To break up the un ion of the daughter with the young man

she was sent to the iuteriorof the State to school; and her lover to Texas, where he died. The other brother contiuued to court the mother until a recent date, although he was somewhat absent on duty, for he belonged to the army. Well, during the young ladies term at school she heard of her lover's death in Texas, and for grief, determined on entering a convent! Thus matters stood when the elder brother, the one that was courting the mother, returned to our cily. He was still true to the widow, and she weut so far as to buy her wedding clothes, and the young man to say he could do with the said widow aa he pleased which meant that he could marry her if he would. This he told In a public bar room. Some scandal, entirely unfounded la truth, got out; the gentleman that conducted the business in the place of the young courtier, was discharged, but on the return of the elder brother, he took charge again and went on with the widow as usual. On Saturday last, the daughter

returned to her mother's, from school; she hav-

?CUT, but Bat Fiction. The annexed poetical version of the grounds upon which Gen. Taylor is "pledged" to sustain the people of these United States, as President which we copy from the Steuben Courier is from the pen of a veteran of 1776, a man who fought for the liberties of his country "in the time that tried men's souls," and who now in his eighty-sixth year, is writin g for his country as earnestly as before he fought for it. This veteran Whig, now so zealous for Gen. Taylor, was one of a party which on the 2d of October, '79, surprised a portion of the Queen's Rangers, commanded by Lieut. Col. Simcoe, in which this officer was wounded and taken prisoner. Our Whig poet, then only a boy of 16 years old, was the first to rush upon and disarm Sim-

jcoe, whose sword he retained as a trophy until

it was demanded by the Governor. It is quite natural that such a "Whig should now be the ardent friend of Taylor. Here is the poetry:

It is thus, says the F.xpress, the Barnburners show their respect for free soil, aud their

appreciation of public service, and open the principle, we suppose, of loving one's enemies, and

doing good to them who despitefully use you. ICTMr. James Blair Gilmer, a promiuent Democrat in Georgia, who voted for Polk, has published a letter, In which he says: "My next vote will be for Gen. Taylor, because I believe him to be the firmest man in the world, the most honest man iu the world, and farther removed above and beyond party and political influence than any man in the world. I

would point out his position at Buena Vista for his firmness. I would point out his public and private character, known to the people of this country for my views of his political worth. I would point cut his Allison letter as mv nolitia creed." 1

whig majority on the Congressional ticket was 217, it must be evident that the State, to say the very least, is ciebateable -round, and that if the friends of Taylor labor for its Electoral vote with vigilant action, we can have the joyous satisfaction of seeing it enrolled under the banner of the brave old soldier who in his early years guarded its defenceless frontier. : As there has been a iron.! riel rh-. i...
