TAYLOR. Gen. TaNlor ni the Senate. During the discusiion in the U. S. Senate, on the 3d inst. on the motion to strike out the siye proviso which the House had attached to the Resolution of thanks to Gem Taylor and his army for their gallant condiict at Monter' y, Mos rs . Crittenden, Clayton, Webster, Sright, and Cal houn defended the gallant hero in a series of Edo /pieta remarks, in which the Administration was challenged to define their objections. Mr. Clayton, among other things, remaiked: lie would he very sorry that such a pro viso as was annexed to this reslution in the other [louse should he retained. on a ccount of its moral efreet, not only upon the coun try but upon the army.- What would be the inference from renting such a proviso? What was there w rong in the capitulation? After three days hard lighting, when much blood had been shed, a general of the op posite army asked for an interview with the commanding general of our army; and in that . interview, in order to -save the needless efrusion of blood, it was agreed that the city should he surrendered, and that the officers of tho opposite army , .should he permitted to march out with their side arms. Winn would gentlemen have had Gen. Taylor to do under such circumstances, reduced as his forces were, with perhaps not more than 5,000 men lit .service ? W,ould they have had hint attack an army of twice their number, strongly entrenched., and attempt to drive them from their forthieations and make prisoners of them? Ano for what? What .could he have done with Allem after they had been made prisoners? .Ven. Taylor was badly supplied . with provisions ; fie' could not have fed them for ten..clays ; he could pot have retained then? as pri.soners of war. They , could have liberated ,theirp-, selves at any time, With these facts sta ring them in the face, be repeated the ques tion, what would gentleman have had Gen. Taylor to do; Would they have had hint to storm the fortifications, regardless of the lives of his own soldiers? And . for what .purpose.? For the purpose of gaining glo ry and honor ,for having slain so many hundred Mexicans in battle ; Were they ito have no regard for :'the loss which our ;army must sustain in storming their forti itications, when the .enetny had every ad vantage against. us; Would gentlemen have had it that Gen. Taylor should have : stormed and sacked the town ? .Were they ! accititiiPted with the couse.quenees nttend-! ing upon the sacking of a city, and of let ting loose a soldiery hardened by warfare, hard , of heart, with bloody hands to murder : and to pillage the inhabitants ? Gen. Tay 'ler told them that he had a regard for the safety of the women and children, who *mild inevitably have been sacriticed.— •Looking back upon theseihings, .he hon ored Gen. Taylor as much for the terms of ;the capitulation as fur the bravery , lip bad :displayed in battle. Ile gloried that an A merican general had shown himself thus humane. If they adopted such a proviso, what would be the moral ell'ect upon the army The soldiers would understand.from it that humanity was not considered by Congress to be a virtue; and when the next battle •Was fought—when the next town was La ken--they would suppose that they were :expected to come red with slaughter of the innocent lives within that town ; that they :were to sack, and pillage, an destriq—to :revel in carnage and blood. He .was ..not :willing to teach them any such lesson., lie would hatie no hand in it,; and he :re peated, that he honored the gallant general .as men 'tor 'his 'humanity as for his brave .ry. Gen. 'Fa!, for now stood probably in :such a position before the country as that .no such side blow could of his minim. ttion.,„ lie had no idea That if the proviso ,were retained in • the reeolution that he cwonlil on that account stand the less line in the affections of the American _People, Ile had attained that position by his brave- ry, not merely, lu this 'battle, but through.

D. M. SNIYBER, Eurgcis Gettysburg, Feb. 12, 1847. The Sabbath. Unusual effort has been making, during the paat few years, by the friends of the Christian :Sabbath, to secure its more general observance throughout the country. Meetings have been held in a num ber of the towns and States, with the view of &wet °ping such a feeling on the subject as should in duce the proprietors or the various means of travel along our Railroads, Canals and highways to cease conveying passengers or freight, on the Sabbath, and also to impress professing Christians with the importance of proper individual example in the mat ter. Much has in this way been accomplished, but much more remains to be done. By reference to a card in our columns to day,4 will be obserZ.ed that a Convention °film friends of the Sabbath will be held in Carlisle on next Wednesday, to be com posed of delegates from Adanis,Cumberland, Frank lin, Perry, and York counties. On Wednesday evening last, a meeting of the several Christian denominations of this place was held in the Lecture-room of the Presbyterian Church, at which the Hon. Wx.
