ZACHARY TAYLOR

If the election of General Zachary Taylor is one more proof that soldiers are popular, it is also one more proof that war is not popular in this country. In the midst of victoiy in the Mexican War the party in power lost the Con-

With .Tacksonian vigor, the President replied, "Then I will command the army in person and hang any man taken in treason."

Overcome by a long exposure to the blazing sun, at the laying of the corner stone of ihe Washington Monument on the Fourth of July, 1850, the President died four days afterwards, having served only sixteen months, or just one-third of his term.
