GHNBRAt, TAYLOR.
At there is a general desire to learn tome
1hin;6f the history, character and qualifications
f)f General Taylor, who now atanda to connpi
uouely before the whole country at the com
mander of the army of occupation, we extraot
'from one of our exchange the following aketch.
It will be intereitfng:
"Gen. Zacbary Taylor entered the army in
1808, immediately after the attack on the Chee
apeake, and hat been in the service of hit coun
try from that time to the present. Having
entered the army aa a lieutenant of infantry he
bad risen to the command of t company at the
beginning of the tail war.
For his gallant defence of Fort Harrison on
Hhe 5th September, 1912, President Madison
conferred upon him the brevet rank of Major,
'end he. is now the oldest brevet in the army,
In 1832, he became the Colonel of the Gtli
'infantry; with this rogirncnl he went to Flori
da in 1833, were he was always foremost in
danger. ' '
On the 25th December, 1930, Col. Taylor,
at the head ot a detachment of about 500 men,
composed of parts of the 1st, 4th and 6th regi
ments of United States Infantry and some Mis
souri volunteers, met about 700 Indians, under
Alligator, Sam Jones, and Coa-coo-chee, on the
banks of the O-ke-cho-bee. This battle was
cough t by the Ind ians, for the day before the
engagement, Col. Taylor received a challenge
from Alligator, telling him where to find him,
and bantering him to come on.- Col. Taylor
desired nothing better, immediately pushed on
-at a rapid march to the expected battle ground,
fearful that the wily Indian might change hia
purpose. The Indians had a strong position in
thick swamp, covered in front by a small
tream, whose quicksands rendered it almost
impassable, but he pushed through the' quick,
.sands and swamps, in the face of a deadly fire
from a concaled foe, driving the Indiana before
'him.
JThe action was long and severe. The Indi
ans yielding the ground inch by inch, and then
only at the point of the bayonet After three
hours of bloody contest, the Indians were routed
and pursued with great slaughter, until night.
This waa the laststand they ever made, in a
large ;body, and the only instance in which they
voluntarily gave battle. Though Col. Taylor
won the day, it waa at the expense of 139 k il
led and wounded more than one fourth of his
whole force. Two colonels, (Colonel Thomp
son of the 5th infantry, and Colonel Gentry of
the Missouri volunteers,) fell at the head of the
troops, Cspt. Van Swearingen and Lieuts.
Brooke and Carter, also fell in the engage
ment '
During the whole of the engagement, Col.
Taylor remained on horseback, passing from
point to point, cheering his men to the conflict,
-and exposed lo the Indian rifle at every mo
ment. For this battle, Mr. Poinsett, Secretary nf
War, rendered merited praise to all engaged,
m hrsommunication to Congress. . The brevet
-of bVigtfter General waa conferred on Cl.
Taylor, and we was given the chief command
in Florida, whidh ne tei?ned in 1840, after
tour or five years arduous and indefatigable
service in thee wars ps and ttammocka f Flo
rida. After retirement from Florida, ie waa assign
rd the command of the 1st department of the
rmy, including the States of Iofsiana, Mis
sissippi, Alabama, &.(, with hts headquarters
at Fort Jossup, Louisiana.
, Ills position gave him the tommarid ot the
"atmy ofoccepation,"" but the tissue of the ser
vice would have justiftoo the Government in
essigning to that command either of the six
general officers of the regular army, whose rank
. it higher than hie.
-But it may be fairly presumed that tire high
character, gallant services and great experi
ence of Gen. T - aside from hit geographical
position, pointed him out at the appropriate
commander of an army, which waj to plant uur
, flag upon the banka of the Rio del Norte.
Gen. Taylor is about 50 years of age; is a
man of much general information, and an excel
lent and tried soldier; a prudent and skilful
commander, whoe traits of character are a
wise precaution in providing for the hour of tri
al, and a fearless, reckless courage in battle.
He ia a Kentuckian by birth, and all that
word implies. He ia an American in heart, and
stamped with all the elements of a hero, by na
tare. Under hia command the flag of the Union
will receive no dishonor on the banka of the Rio
jrande. Xtshville Orlhipiiitan.

ng well, and profitably to ita present tnsnsgers,
t is said they will soon erect another stack ad
oining the present furnace, We trust that the
lost sanguine hopes of the pteseut operatora at
bamokin may be fully realised, that another,
nd a third Anthracite Furnass may aeon go tip
i that region ; and further, that ths time may
Medily arrive whea locomotive will be taking

DR. 8MITH'S ADVICE.
THE Mearles appeared in Europe about ihe
same lime with the small poi, and have a
great affinity to that disse. They both came
from the s iuie quarter of the world, are built infec
tious, and seldom attack the same person but once.
The Meablea are most common in the spring sea
son, snd generally disapieer in the summer. The
disease itself, when properly minagrd, seldom
proves fatal ; but its consequences are often vei v
trouhb some. Our business is to assist nature to
throw out the eiuption. Blood-letting ia almost
certain death.
Nothing ever discovered haa done the work so
eeutly snd effectually sa Dr. SMITH'S (Sugir
Coated) Indian Vegetable PilU." You need not
force them down, ei her
Q3 CAU TION. As s miserable imitation hue
been made, by ths name of "Sugir Coated 1'ilU,"
