Tsrton at the head of our colamns, as our first choice forthe Presidency, we do not - violate our politicalneutrality, because he Is himself neutral in Politics, and if he should .be chosen by the pea. ple, will be the means of neutralising the evil' and consolidating and preserving whatever is good in the two great parties, into .which the country has been divided far the past twenty.years."„ We-wish the reader to- examine this extract • carefully, anrjpreserve it for future reference. The' Mirror is a paper professedly neutral in.polities, but has generally leaned to the side of the w.higs on every qiiestion but that of the tariff:.:tibia de cidedly the most. radical - free trade Taper in the country—far in advance of the Jo4rial of Com. metre.'

Constitution, the Assumption of state Debts' .. by• the National GovernMent; the Distrihution of the proceeds of : the`Pliblic Land Sales, the Pro scription of men for Gpinion's sake,"&c. &c, If it be true that General" Turin' belongs not to the party that advocates the above measures, then', as suredly, that party has taken the most unwarran table liberty in making itse of'hic:rrime in connex ion with the Presidency. A certain blue light Federal pager nut an "hundred miles from.thia city, declares that General Taylor is a +4 Clay Whig." We presume there is, about as much meaning in this assertion as there was in. the avowal of- the coons in 1840, that John Tyler was si.`Democratic Whig."
