I SOMERSET HERALD, M ERSE T, IA., 'foil PRESIDENT OF THE UNI TED STATES IN IS is. QEIf L, ZACHARY TAYLOR. Toil VICE PRESIDENT, HON. ANDREW- STEWART. Su'Jict to thi decision of a National Contention. FOFt GOVEnXOE General James. Irvin, OF CEXTRU COl'XTY. roil CANAL COMMISSIONER, Joseph W. Patton, OF CUMBERLAND COt'XTY. Gcx. Taylor To our mind it is clear that Gen. Taylor is destined to be the i.ext President. There is no resisting the tide of public sentiment. From all quarters we receive intelligence of the enthusiasm manifested by the people in behalf of the gallant veteran who "never surrenders' and when once the brave men who have shared with him and who may yet share with him the toils and dan gers cf the camp, shall have returned to their homes and related their exploits, and f hall have made their fellow citizens at home fully acquainted with the character of their commander, the enthusiasm which is already so manifest will become general and rrresistable. It is perhaps fortunate lor General Taylor and the country, that the Administration left him t Bueua Vista just as it did: with a small force, and that force chiefly volunteers, to contend against a large bod, the flower of the Mexican armv. headed bv their master spirit; for, had it acted otherwise had it furnished him with a force which in the estimation of military men would have been adequate to the enterprise in which he was enguged, the energy of his character could not have been fully de Teloped. As it is, "he who runs can read it," and if his achievements have a parallel in history, it has never met our eye. Bandbox politicians and narrow souled sticklers for etiquette and parlor formalities may be incapable of apprecia ting the merits of one whose lot is has been to receive more hard knocks from the enemy than hard dollars from his Country; but, depend upon it, the people know how to estimate his services, end tlso how to reward them. jfT"The Whigs and Antimasons of Allegheny have put in nomination the fol lowing ticket: Senator. George Darsie. Assembly. Lewis J. Noble, Christian Suively, Marshall Swartzwelder, Henry Long. Treasurer. J. W. Baxter. . Commissioner. Thomas Perkins. Auditor. William Cavan. j"A Locofoco paper has started a story, that the Mexican Congress hid passed vote of thanks to Senator Corwin for his speech against the war. We think if Mexico has any gratitude to ex press for favors received, it ought to be manifested toward Mr. Polk for having furnished her with a commanding Gen eral. . CrTwo prominent Whigs are leading our armies in Mexico; and the Locofocos call the Whigs "the Mexican party." James K. Polk gave Santa Anna "aid and comfort" in returning to Mexico; where fore the Polk men are very appropriately called the "Santa Anna party." ?"The Washington Union S3ys, Mr. Po!k did not give Santa Anna the pass imputed to him, but admits th3t an order to let Santa Anna into Mexico was issued by Mr. Marcy to the Squadron in the Gulf; which, we think, is pretty clearly "icknowledgin the corn." COMaj. John P. Gaines, the Whig candidate for Congress in the Covington district, Kentucky, is now a prisoner in Mexico. The Locofocos will of course oppose his election on the ground that he a "Mexican Whig. DPSo;ne of Shunk's friends are try ing to ride him into office on Gen. Tay lor's back. Old Rough and Ready will scarcely permit himself to be used as a pack horse for carrying stcu a load ! fcThe Locofocos of Fayette have formed their ticket. William Y. Roberts and William Redick are the candidates for Assembly; Wrilliam Snyder for Sheriff The election for Judges in New York came off on Monday. In New York city the ordv district heard from the Locus carried their candidates. ' S2?The season continues favorable, and die growing crops present quite a vi gorous and promising appearance. Cw""No material changes in the eas terii m::ke lince th: dais "of our list. For the Herald. Mr. Editcr: T have noticed in the Baltimore American, a suggestion to. the effect that Gen. Taylor be nominated and run as a "People's candidate.' because, as is alleged, cot only the "Whigs, but also many Democrats desire his election as President: If such be the case, it shows a gratifying unanimity of sentiment on a subject or the first importance to the Peo - , , , . , , next Presidential election may pass ovei without the usual degree of excitement, j But it will be the safest plan, not to in dulge in this hope too soon or too much; not to count upon a political millcuium before we perceive sure signs of its ap proach. And then, too, we should in quire whether the Whig party can give ..... . 3 fc ur their distinctive nrcrirn-rntinn without endangering their principles, and know also that such a combination of hitherto conflicting elements would in future move harmoniously together. Let us examine this matter a little by the lights of expe rience, and see how it stands. The Whigs, if I have a correct con ception of their views, contend, promi- nently, for the People's supremacy under the constitution, and viewed in this light, the suggestion referred to, taken by itself, seems consistent and plausible enough. If the object be, to put down the influence of the ofiice-holders and to raise that of the people to what it ought to be and what the framers of the constitution designed it should be, then, I say, it is all right. But, is it certain that such is the object? Or, is it not rather to be apprehended that it is a plot of the office-holders, to "come it over" the Whigs ! For, in the face of the fact, that the Administration with its host of retainers have not the confidence of any considerable portion of the people, can it be expected that they wii! act in o-ood faith if the Whigs consent to amal gamate with them, or allow them to amal gamate with the Whigs, unless there could be an explicit understanding that, under the new Administration, the affairs of Go vernment should be conducted upon the principles held by the Whig party I Would the Democrats pledge themselves to sustain the Administration in such a course ? If they will do so in advance of a nomination, I suppose there can be no dilUculty in making the proposed ar rangement. If they will not do so, then I would say, "hands ofTl" If my reading of the past political his tory of this country has not misled me and in case it has, there are those who can correct me there was in 1821, if not a similar merging of parties, at least a gen eral dissolution, which subsequently led to the organization of the two great an tsgonistical parties of the present day. There were then four candidates in nomi nation. Wm. II. Crawford was the re gular Democratic candidate, because no minated according to the usages of the party. John Quincy Adams, a promi nent member of a Democratic Cabinet, however he may have been nominated, was the favorite of the office holders. Henry Clay, perhaps the most popular man in Congress, was selected as the can didate of the western Democracy. And General Jackson, whose military fame had gone abroad over the world, was chosen as a "People's" man. Into the support of Mr. Adams entered most of the Fe deralists of the New England Stales, and also some of the Democrats. Mr. Craw ford and Mr. Clay were each supported by a branch oi the Democracy, and Gen. Jackson had the support of a third branch. But among the supporters of the latter were also many, if not most of the pro minent Federalists ctT of New England those who had long been waiting for the "moving of the waters," but who, on account of their Federalism, had ever been thrust aside when the spoils of of fice were distributed. General Jackson was defeated in 1821, but elected in 1928 not as a Democratic candidate though run as such in some of the States but he was elected as Gex. Jacksox, and that, too, by the aid of those old Federal ists. These had'in due time lo be provi ded for; but there was danger that their occupancy of the principal offices would srive the new administration a Federal caste, and in order to obviate this diffi culty it was resolved to give it a "wool dying" in the tub of "Democracy," which was done accordingly under the direction of Blair and Kendall, and others of like kidney with themselves. Thence forward the Administration was "Demo cratic;" and, however strange the anoma ly, aU the old Federalists who had been provided with offices became real Perk Democrats'.. These had their full , share in the bringing forward and carry ing out of those measures by which tills Administration was to distinguish itself, which he will sell very low for cash or i .t i exchange for lumber or approved coun and ihe consequence was, a general sys-! eCU8,,oc lu UU1UC f J ! trv nrouuee. tem ol l ederal policy, which so disgus-! , , icu many oi me nonesi oiu uemocrais that they could no longer adhere lo ihe. newly created "powers," but abandoned them at once and forever. Gen. Jackson ! Saw the nrernrirmsnpss nf hi situation. j The storm was fast gathering around , hira; aad wisel7 for the Safety of his Ad" I ministration, he dissolved the Cabinet, be- cause, to use his own words, "it did not move as a unit." The secret of the dif ficulty was, that the Federalists had amal gamated with the Democrats ic his elec- ; , ,. f , i former, according to the common phrase. "stole from the others their thunder," and now, having thepower, were carrying out their own political tenets, sheltered and protected by the ample folds of the cloak j of Democracy. Gen. Jackson's personal popularity was suiiicienu ainiu.ine raginff oi me cie- DO ments, to buoy up his ship; and, guided u i i -n ; by his strong arm and still stronger will, I . . . . j 1 fc Willi llll 111 l ClUlXiJ) lliVU.A LJKJIJ shattered that his "illustrious successor," less popular than hp, was compelled, at the end of four years, to "give it up." I have called up these reminiscences to show that influential and designing men may sometimes get into power under "false pretences" aud afterwards use the advantage which their position gives them, to the injury of those to whom they are indebted for their elevation; and that it is ' at all times the safer plan for a political party to adhere to their principles, lest by pursuing a different course they furnish their opponents with weapons more dan gerous than those which they already possess. General Taylor is understood to be a Whig in principle and practice, and is therefore all that the Whigs could dtsire, his honesty and competency being admit ted; and if, with a full knowledge of this fact, any portion or the whole of the De mocratic party choose to support him, I, for one, shall most heartily rejoice, and shall then hope to see the day when all party strife shall cease and the people be united ia sentiment as they are already united in interest.
