GEN. TAYLOR I-IE.-XDED.
The simplicity that marl s Gen. Taylor’s
personal appearanceand habits has become
a subject of universal fame. A curious
scene occurred at Point Isabel, at the time
vi-lien Com. Conner appeared off that place
with his feet, togive succor to the army
of occupation. Com. Conner is not only
strict in his dress, but has a Pliiladelpliia
uicety about it. He appears in full and
splendid uniform on all public occasions,
being the exact contrast in this particular
of Gen. Taylor.
At the proper time, Com. Conner sent
word to Gen. 'l'aylor that he would come
ashore to pay him a visit of ceremony.
This put old “Rough and Ready” into a
trenieridous excitement. If Com. Conner
had quietly come up to his tent and given
him a s:iiloi"s gripe, aii(l sat down on a
camp chest, :ind talked over matters and
tliings in an old fashioned way, Gen. Tay-
lor would have been prepared; but to the
most carefully (ll'ess'3(l officer in our navy,

were the uncompreliended words which,
upon recognizing the locality of the dis-

extremity to have uttered.

CLOSE OF THE SESSION.‘
Eight weary months and more have-'
rolled aw:i_v—ab'out six and thirty weeks;
sincea Congress sfiongly Locofoco in‘
the Government. They found the country
enjoying peace and prosperity-’='—i'ts labor’
comparatively well employed aptl fairly"
rewarded——the products of its diversified
and expanding industry coinmandiug fair
prices in nearly every depai“tt“néifi't—‘-‘—bui‘l-’
ding, improving, &c. every ‘where active,
or check-ed only by_ the apprehension of
what. this same Congress iuiglit do——the"
revenue coufessedly abundant (too abun-
dant, the Executive journals apprehended,)
and the public debt created during the last
experiment at depriving of Protection our
great industrial interests, rapidly dimin-'
isliing and about to be extinguished, while
the treasury boasted a daily incresing sur-
plus of ten millions. Eight months of
uncurbecl Locofoco rule have sufficed to‘
change entirely the aspect of tliings—td
substitute war for peace, and a most
shameful, cowardly guilty war at that—to
palsy in great degree the arm of useful
labor and to draw away tliousandsfrom the‘
plow and the worlishop to shed the blood’
of our innocent fellow men on the distant
full unifoi'm—a thing his officers, associa-
ted with him for years, had never known.
In the ineanwliilc Com. Conner was cog-
itating over the most proper way to com-
pliment Gen. Taylor. Having heard of
his peculiar disregard for military dress,
he concluded he would make the visit in a
i'riuiiiici' comporling to.Gen. '1'a_\-'lor’s liab-
its, and consequently equipped himself in
plain, white drilling, and unattended came
on sliorc. ‘ _
The moment old “Rough and Ready”
heard that Com. .Conner had landed, be
abandoned some heavy work he was per.
sonally attending to about the camp, and
rushing into his tent, delved at the bottom
ofan old chest, and pulled out a uniform
coat, that had peacefully slunibercd ‘for
years in iindisturhed quietiide, slipped him-
self into it, in his liastc fastening it so
that one side of the standing collar was
thr-.-e buttons holes above the’ other, and
sat himself down, as uncomfortable as can
well be imagined. With quiet step and
unattended, Com. Conner presented him-
self at Gen. Taylor’s tent, and the two
soldiers shook hands, both in exceeding
:istonisliincnt at each other’s personal
appearance.
The wags in the army say that the above
contains the only out/2 7z'2'caceount, where
Gen. Taylor was ever headed, and that
since that time he has taken to linen round--
abouts, of the largest dimensions, with
more pertinacity than ever. -
RESTORATION TO LIFE
BEING BURIED.
The following singular circumstance is
given wi.li others in a work recently pub-
lished on .“l,’i'em:iture Burials.”
The patient, Mr. Edward Stupleton, had
died apparently of typus fever, accompan-
ied with some anomalous symptom which
had excited the curiosity of his medical
attendants. Upon his seeming deccasc his
friends were reqiiestcd to sanction a post
morteni examination, but declined to per-
mit it. As often lia,‘-pens when such rc-
fusals are made, the practitioners resolved
to disintcr the body and dissect it at leisure
in private. Arrangements were easily cf-
fected with which London abounds; and
upon the third night after the funeral, the
supposed '(-orpse was unearthed from 11
grave eight feet deep, and deposited in the
operating chamber of one of the private
hospitals.
An incision of some extent had been
actually made in the abdomen, where the

scvnes occur occasionally in grave i1SSOn'f-
blies. During the late session of the New
I‘I21mp_Sllll'6 Legislature, a newly fledged
orator rose to make his maiden speech in
the House of Representatives. A bill ll:t(l
been brouglit in, to tax bunk dividcnds,and,
watching his opportunity, the clebutrmz ad-
dressed the members ;—-“Mr. Speaker, the
gentleman from Dover, who introduced
this bill does not seem to be aware of its
inevitable results. He would st. 1',» Me wid-
ow”—(roars of laughter, and cries of-the
widow who ?——what widow .7 not in this
public hall, I hope, &:c, &c.)
As soon as the tumult subsided in some
degree, and the orator could make liirnself.
heard he indignantly proceeded ;—“Gen-
tleincn need not think to put me down by
clamor. Is there no sympathy here for the
widow and the orphan’! lsay, sir, that
this is worse than stripping. Put on this
tax, sir, and I say you drive the widow-to
her lasl .5-/nzft l ’
Here the clamor became so-great that
the speaker despairing of a hearing, resum-
ed his seat. It was almost ten minutes
before the House could transact its regular
business.
A Blu.s~tci'er.——A person who ma'.es a
great deal of noise-—\vlio drives pell niell
along, seldom accomplishes any thing for
himself or others. Isle is like a roe» et,
that ascends and fixes the eye of the mul-
titude for a few n'ion'ients and then expires.
That which in man produces the most effect,
is unseen by the multitude, and only felt.
Do you l.ear the steam that propels the
plains of Mexic-o——to render tame, and dis-
tasteful to thousands the peaceful walks
and achievements of honest toi‘l——to open
wide the sluiccs of the treasury and drain
it at the rate of least one million of dollars
weekly; to render necessary the issue of
ten millions of treasury sliinplastcrs, to be
inevitably followed by millions on millions‘
more ; and at last we had a message from
Mr. Polk asking for :1 special two millions‘
to mal-.'e peace with after spending inaiivf
millions fruitlessly and wickedly in making’
war. Such are some oftlie leading achiev-'
ments of the last eight months. ' ,
Long as the session has been, few will"
complain that it has effected too little:;'
very few, we think, will say that it has‘
effected what it ought. The tariff of 1842'
has been repealed and a wholly ad valo-‘
rem and professedly revenue tariff enacted
in its stead—-a measure balefully mistaken
in principle and disastrously bungling in’
details—a tariff wbicli discriminates iri'i‘é’-'
peated and important instances against the
industry of our own people and in favor of
that of foreigiiers—an act which sets aside‘
one that did provide ample revenue in‘
favor of one that assuredly will not—au
act which‘ virtually allows importers to
assess the duties on the goods they import,-’
COl'll.l'tl.l‘y to all right reason and-the exam“-‘
ple of every enlightened nation.
Having involved the coiintrv in a most’,
expensive war, and destroyed the’ tariff,
which would have provided a good part of
the revenue required to sustain it——li'aving7
exhausted the treasury and ordered‘ the‘
issuing of reams of sliinplasters to fill it—--
the next step was naturally to pass the‘
sub treasury act, by which the government‘
declares itselfafraid to trust and too pure’
to deal with specie paying banks, in order
to give the issues of its own gigantic rag
mill a readier circulation. True, these are’
redeemable in nothing, except at the pleas-
majcstic boat’! The steam which escapes
and makes the noise, produces nothing
lt is just so with mankind, look \\'l1(~'l‘€
you may. The bliisteriiig,talliing, driving,
headlong fellows, make you start and turn
aside—and this is all. The substantial,
energetic, talented, say but little, but you
feel the effects of their labors and their
influence every day.

T/ze Duty on Wool.--Tlie real differences i
between the tariff of 1842 and l"olk’s Brit-3
isli tariff, so far as the duty on wool is!
concerned, are these: l
On coarse wool, costing 7 cents, wliiclil
does not compete with ours, the Polk tariff;
gives one cent .s~r1~en mills and a ltalf mg/‘e:
£/.'llf_‘I/])eI‘])0II7?.(ll/H172.I/1.8 lar7fi' of 181-‘2—thel
VVliig tariff giving mills, and the Polk
tariff ‘ll mills, per pound. On all other
wool, which does compete with ours, the
tariff-of 1842 gives t/ircc cents per 7;oui:r1
more daily t/ran does Pol/c’s lurffl‘. This is
the exact difference between the provisions
of the two.
Polk's apologists may do their best to
pull the wool over the eyes of tliefarmersa
and to swindle tl.exu into the support Of 8
measure _\\hich will prove injurious to
them; but these‘ facts they dare not deny.
