act on the principle that a. man has no right to;

his plans and prejudices. Thu: any number of:
letters have been addressed to Gen. Taylor to‘;
ascertain whether it; was his in_teut.io11 to be a?
candidate for the Presidency, or whether he in-l
tended to pass the remainder of his days (after
the close of the war) in retirement. Mr. Gree-;

Great. VVest:, has given great. offence to the peo-
ple because he did not disclose the particular;

western Whigs the nomination of Gov. Seward"
as a candidate for the Vice Presidency. It is
thought that he would prefer Corwinof-Ohio to,’
any other man for the Puesidency. Well Cord
Win and Seward would not be a bad ticket for
the region north of“Masou & Dixon’s line.”
