THg ADMINISTRATION AND GGs. TAy.

after enumenling with rlearness and truth
the yaripns underhanl ways in which The
Administration has shown lis b.siIhy ir

thus:


Against all these, o.d Rough and Ready
has been protected by his own geniu, aud
vigor in the field. ami by the gratitude ol
his counlymin. H. has been fund aIr
quaie 10 the cncunnlcr q the enemy both
IN trout aud 'iu the rear His country
men have watched over his glory, while
he. in the riffs Of the battle, struck far their
honor. His fame is with them and il sale.


Maddrnrd and desperate, the Admins.
lration has at length thrown by all d sg,tse
and commenced an open war, in the House
Of Representatives. against The hero of
Mexico. The slander mongers of the
Administration arc loosencd upon him, and
men who dare mol speak except to echo
The views Of the President denounce him.
They dcnounce Gen. Taylor for lack Of
yigor ., Rcsaca de Ia Palma, aud condemn
him because il is alIedgel that some mem.

II is unnecessary 10 vindca'e Gen. Tay
loE The heart Of the nation is his Ets
against the arrows oi the Administration.
But what will people think oflhr patriotism
Of the President who thus persccutrs tho
laurellcd victor amid lis stsuggles and
iriumphs seeks 10 weaken him in the field,
and 10 degrade him in the eyes Of his coun
tryl Docs not the course Of the President
indicate a determination to proirart the
war; TO roll II as sweet morse under his
tongue, until his own purposes shall have
been effected Gen. Taylor, properly
reinforced, would, before this time, have
closed the war, this is an offence not to
be forgiven. Besides, there is a daily
beauty in the hero's life that makes Polk's
ugly; and therefore is be to be hunted
down.
