GEN. TAYLOR AND THE PREsIDENcr. i The Lou
isville Journal speaking Of Gen. Taylor and the
next Presidency, holds the following language:


"No one can apprehend that the old hero Of Mon
terey will push himself forward asprant after
political honors, for he is content well he may be,
with the glorious laurels already clustering around
his brow. He never thrusts himself forward except
when his country's enemies are in front. Then he
is ever ready and rough.


Yet Gen. Taylor if called on by his party, may
permit himself to be considered candi
date for the Presidency, and if SO, who Of the asP-
rants can Withstand him General Cass 7 He
would beat back Cass and his followers as he beat
back the British at Fort Harrison. Mr.. Buchanan?

routed the Indians on the Wythlacoochee. Mr.
Wright He would put Wright and his
followers to flight as he put the Mexcians to flight
at Palo Alto. Mr.. Allen ! He would thrash Al
len and his followers as he thrashed the Mexicans
at Resaca de la Palma. Col. Johnson He would
overwhelm the Colonel and his followers as he
overwhelmed the Mexcans at Monterey.

They are poor soldiers By the laws Of their gov
eminent they not allowed to have arms at home,
and consequently do not understand the of them.
These people are not cowardly but unskilled in the
use Of arms and without confidence in their rulers.
Gen. Taylo esteems them brave people but they
are not effective in battle because Of their ignorance
