He mene pepe the present day n eld federal party revived. And inly, in his jwtercourse with his fellow citize: the world at | large, he 18 said to be the most thorough demo- eratic public man that the world ever saw. He hates allparade and ostentation; and it is a fact, that some of your policemen in New Y ‘ tant in their own eyes, and put on far more airs. His manners are extremely courteous and unassuming, vetully devoid of affectation, calm and cool, wi an occasional eparkle in the eye, that indicates the prilliancy of the intellect within, and at the same time a keen relish fora stingless sarcasm, or & gentle joke. . Now for the political opinions of Gen. Taylor. Itis stated tome that he discountenances altogether the annexation of Cuba ; and it is beheved that he would be almost disposed, it it were possible, to give back California and New Mexico to itsformer owners, General Taylor looks upon the acqui tion of those countries almost as a robbery ; and although he fought so bravely he Rio Grande, and was the most efficient instrument in the ac- quisition of the new territories, yet he did se in obedience to ordersffrom the government, but not because be approved of the policy of Mr. Polk. If | nullification stand amount to? Fie hapeniness be pending relating to the purchase of | a8 regards Oregon a whit more succe: Cul a, he will, when he eomes into power, at once bresk them off, if 1tcanbe done with any show of decency and propriety. He is against the annexa- tion or purchase of Cuba, except in case of th last extremity, This extremity would be the offer or enter the sacted Is who were not represenia- tives of the people South of Mason & Dixon’s line. ‘We observed the gentlemen who went in and did not see Col. Benton among tiem; we think every other Southern man wes present. A motion was made in the eprly part of the evening to admut the public, but « was lost—und we went home. We ‘ork seem more impor- | understead the meeting was kept up till a late hour, and resulted in nothing but an adjournment to rp ane next. 3 ‘e cannot say that the position at present oc- eupied by the gap of the South is enthera very dignified or avery wise one. It is evident, in the first place, that the: disagree among themselves; and it is equally cleaz, in the next place, that a portion of them are for endeavor- ing to intimidate the North in advance of any cause -for ection. Whilst we admire the great talents of Mr. Calhoun, we cannot.but reflect that he has thrown himself away, always, upon ab- stractions. He has always been fighting against shadows; and when !the time for action has come, he has invanably been obliged to recede. ia, to Pies minded, honorable man, as Mr. Calhoun un- doubtedly 18, must be a humiliating position to be placed 1p; but he brings it on himself. What did his Was his position ssful? Will his threat of se; aration, should slavery be exelud- ed trom California and New Mexico, be carried out any more than his former threats ? He is fight- ing against an abstract proposition. It is not prac- tically shall slavery exist in Califorma and New attempt of the English government to get posses- | Mexico? but the question ia, theoretically, shall we sion of the island. The occurrence of such a con- tingency 18 improbable, and utterly impossible ; for the Brush government would not dare to make such an attempt, and run the risk of a rupture with this country in the present ture of European affaire. On the subject of Canada, or what the have permission to take our slaves into a country where nature, climate, everything, would render such an emigration tfectly worthless, and where e have not the slightest intention of even bringing a single nigger? And upon this sublimated abstrac- tion itis asserted the Union will be dissolved. General thinks on that port, Thave heard nothing. | Tush! It will all endin—smoke! The question of Probably the matter was never discussed. The tariffis another point on which he holds some distinct and curious opinions. He i3 in favor ef modifying, in some respect, the details of the existing law ; but you may rely upon it that he by Bo means approves of the repeal of the tariff of 46, and the substitution of that of ’42. This subject, however, will create lutle excitement or interest, exceptamong afew manufacturers in the North. Asa politics! question, it has lost the interest it formerly excited. The most pressing and impor- tant political question which will come before the mew edministration, will be the slavery ques- tion. General Taylor’s opinions on this matter are very peculiar for a Southern man. It has long been generally supposed in the uth, and so given out in “ithe public jour- nals, that he would veto the Wilmot proviao alto- gether—such an mference being drawn from his €opnection with the South. General Taylor’s at tention has been brought to this subject, from the immense quantity of letters he has received from the Northern States regarding it. He very much regrets, 1 believe, that this question has been so much agitated. He agrees with Mr. Buchanan that the institution of slavery cannot be extended to California and New Mexico until the laws of these countries be repealed by positive acts of Congress. 1 this view of the matter, he thinks that the mere legislation of these coun- tres into new territories, would obviate all dif- ferences, as no slave property could be intro- duced there under the existing laws of those terntories, and in this respect they would be preciiey in the same position as the Northern free tes. Mr. Calheun’s notions on slavery he ut- terly rejects. Probably the General would ac- quiesce in the Missouri compromise, but doubts whether it could be carried through Congress. He thinks that California and New Mexico might be erected into new territories without any reference to the question of slavery, and that the subject should rest tis, without any further agitation. And he also believes that the Southern men are very wrong in the violent measures they propose and threaten on this matter. On the whole, as tar as I can learn, the views of General Taylor on the question of slavery are sensible, just, and ational in the highest degree. It is curious, that he quite coincides, as] am informed, with a certain paper inthe North, which has been prominent in its advocacy of the doctrine that the laws of a conquered country should remain in force until they are expressly changed by the country to which it has been annexed. Now, being a constant readcr of the Herald, in New Orleans, I rememberto have seen this doctrine advocated in its columns, long before the Wilmot proviso agitated Congress.) _ The most pressing matter on his attention, during his retirement at Baton Rouge, has been the numerous applications for office. thas been a perfect rush, as I learn ; and it would be impos- sible torecount the various anecdotes and inci- dents cunnected with it. In your good city of New York, it seems there have been a great meny preseing hard to get offices. Some suppose that there will be no sweeping removals; but, as far as! can learn, this is a mistake, for there will be a very general removal of the old officers under Mr. Poik’s admimistration._I have it from good authority that Mr. Webb, of the Courter and inquirer, has distinctly asked for some foreign mission, and has signified a preference for Berlin. He wishes to go there, still holding on his interest in the Courier and Enquirer, and merely raising the salaries of Messrs. King and Raymond, the editors teft behind. Thie 1s the proposition he has mede to the General, which 1s supposed by some tohave been acceded to, and by others tohave been rejected. Mr. Webb, itis said, has written to Gen. Taylor, advising him to letno one know who ras to compose his cabinet, and at the same time intimating a desire to form one of the select few him- selt. The General replied that he was greatly obliged to him for his advice, which he considered excellent, and that he would adopt it in toto, and keepthe secret to himself. The feelings of the officious journalist at this narve and curt reply, 80 ‘amusing and suggestive of the character of the man, may be more easily conceived than expreas- ed. I have heard it asked here if Mr. Webo be sent to Berlin in consequence of the services slavery or non-slavery in California, will be de- cided by the people there whilst we are thinking »bout it, and some centuries we hope before this giorious Union will ever be cracked, much less se- vered. In the meanwhile, it would be much more dignified if Southern gentlemen would keep quiet. en the necessity arrives it will be ume enough to fing out threats; and even their calm appeals to reason will be more efficacious than childish cries of a dissolution of the Union. f In consequence of the death of Hon. Mr. Sevier, the President nominated Col. John B. Weller, of Dhio, as Commissioner to run the boundary {me between the United States and Mexico. The no- mination was sent into the Senate to-day. Mr. John Davis, of Massachusetts, moved that the usual form cf allowing it to lie on the table for one day should be enforced, but, at the suggestion of seve- ral whig Senators, he withdrew his motion, and the nomination was unanimously confirmed at once. This is, we believe, the first time the rule was ever dispensed with, and it is, therefore, a high compliment to the gallant Colonel. ‘The amount of pay hasinot yet been fixed upon; but, we understand, the President recommends. itehall be higher than was allowed the Commissioner who adjusted the Northeastern boundary, who ‘ot $3,000. Col Weller’s duties will, of course, e much more arduous, and he should be paid pro- portionably. Y » The annual meeting of the Colonization Society took place this evening, in the Hall of the House of Repsesentatives. lt was not very imely er tended, and the sparee appearance of the Hall aflorded a strong contrast to the meeting a year ego, when the Hon. Henry Clay was in the chair. ‘hen the crowd was so great, that the ladies’ bon- nets were crushed, their dresses torn, the chairs broken, Xc., &e. To-night there was ample room tor all—not a dress was injured, ora chair scratch- ed. Query?—Was the excitement last year in con- sequence of a deep teeling for the colonizatien cause, and, it so, has the tree soil movement been the cause of the falling off this year? An answer is requested. B. Wasuinaton, Jan. 16, 1849. Colonization Meeting at the Capitol. The American Colonization Society held its annual meeting at the capitol to-night. Of this society, the Hon. Henry Clay has for some years been the President; and at its meeting last year drew such an assemblage to the capitol as is only seen on the greatest occasions. The hall of the House was filled with an intelligent and fashionable audience, and there was quite sprink- ling of spectators in the galleries. Hon. Elisha Whittlesey, of Ohio, one of the Vice Presidents of the society, took the chair. Rey. Mr. MeL. Secretary. After # solemn colonization prayer by the Rev. R. R. Gurley, The Secretary read the annual report of the so- clety, from which it appears that the number of emi- ante to Liberia for past year was 443, of which 124 were liberated slaves, aud 117 free colored persons. The number of applications in 1840, for a passage out, ‘was only 157. The receipts of the society for the year were $50,114 37 Expenditures... .....sc0e000 +++ 51,989 69 Excess of expenditures. “$1,825 32 The society have 600 applicati passage out, this year, of liberated slaves, and expect 600 more, They want fonds and help. The here Liles pea late themselves that 1d and France have recent- ly recognieed the independence of the black republic. Hon. W. R Thompson, of Indiana, offered a resolu- tion to the effect that the achievements of the society, as furnished by the report, are highly gratifying, an ae surance that its success will extend to the ame- ioration of Afriea and the African ri warmly and eloquendy i: cause, a8 may unite; idea of @ aissolution of the siavery, or any other question. Reeolution adopted. remotest Hon. Rowenr J, Warxen, Secretary of the Treasury, submitted » reeolution congratulatory of the results and accomplishments of the Society; and spo id decidedly in a1 rt of the prosecution of it6 he rendered to General Taylor since he took him up as a candidate for the Presidency last year, bore, as a common P wns upon which all sections what should Mr. Bennett get, who was the first to nommate him for that high office, and has been his firm and strenuous supporter ever since? . The one was first an unwilling advocate, and lent bis aid only since last year; the other was in the field in the any part of ’46, nearly two years before, and was the first and strongest ad- vocate of the hero of Buena Vista. He ought cer- tainly to be sent as minister to France or England. As for Hiram Fuller, the other editor in New York, who, I see by the papers, is set down for the office of Marshal of New York, he ought, at least, to be appointed as chargé to Denmark, having had the start of Mr. Webb by many months. All these, and other matters, are talked of jokingly by some politicians 1n this quarter, and are sometimes ¢] e only thing certain in regard ind appointments, is that there will be a conerderable change, perhaps as great as that which took place at General Harrison’s election, only the changes will be made with more grace and digatty. As to individual applications, it is impossible tosay with any degree of certainty who has the bestchance. The race 1s not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, in office-hunting, as well as other kinds of hunting. ‘ General Teylor 18 now of opinion that he will not be able to get to Washington before the 28th of February, as he will occupy a great deal ot time in the visits he intends making by the way; and he is the more induced to defer nis approach to the capital ull that time from an apprehension that he would be worried to death by the office-seekers, if he reached it sooner. At Louisville, he stops to confer with Mr. Crittenden, and make definite arrangements as to the composition of the cabinet. Either at Louisville or at Frankfort he will make up his mind on this point, and also compose his anavgural address, which will give the views in | full on all the principal points pressing for atten- tion. The General may disappoint many men, many liveiane, and no small number ot office seekers; ut, as far as I am able to judge, he will gratify the wishes of all the moderate and sensible portion of the community, and meet the expectations of every rational! patriot and friend of the Union throughout the country. _ ‘Wasninaton, January 16, 1349. The Southern Meetng— What was Done Thereen— Mr. Cathoun’s Position— Unanimous Conjirma- tion of Col. Weller’s Nomtnation-- Annual Meet- ing of the Calomization Soctety, §c. Last night was appointed for the grand flare-up of the South, and we were given to understand that this morning’s papers would contain the pronun- etamento, which would inform the North how far it might go in ite * aggressions,” and define the pre- cise point at which patience would cease to be a virtue, and the South would aissolve partnership with their false-hearted brethren of the North. ‘The meeting was to take place inthe Senatecham- ber; but whether it was to be held with open doore or not, wae nct known. Indeed, the whole aflair was clothed in mystery, end the grend problem of who will compose General Taylor's cabinet, was a mere bagatelle as compared with the solution of any inquiry ae regards the meeting 10 question. ‘The hour was fixed for seven, but before that time a large crowd had gathered at the Senate door, and demanded adm ttance in the name of the people. It was, however, to use a vulgar expres- sion, ‘‘nogo.” Mr. Calhoun—who, by the way, althovgh not the chairman of the confederacy, appears to be head eook and botide-washer— had given stri't orders that none but South- ein members and Senators should be admitted; although some of these Southern mem- bere tried hard to get in their friends, the ken of in the same temper at | 1, of Pa., submitted a series of id proceeded to sn interesting colony and republic of Liberia. of the mobie support whioh the ‘and the Britien governmen ven to the republic created on the coast some torical facts connected with of slaves imto America, and the effects as developed in our history, as colonies and id independent States.

Resolutions agreed to. Hi . M’Lane, of Maryland, was next intro- duced to the meeting. He submitted in the outset, « preamble and resolutions, as follows: Whereas slavery as existing in the United Btates, is a local and mupicipal institution, and eo recognized and respected by the Cenatitation; therefore, Keeolves (substantially), That all interference with this insti- tution, in any way disrespecting ite local character and the muai- cipal sovereignty over it, should be firmly resisted by tho States | im which it exinta, Resoived.

Hon. Hven Maxwett, of New York, next took the Acor, according to the programme for the evening. | He mainteined that while no equality of blacks and whites could be attained, no plan of a beg for free | blacks om this co t,in Texas, New Mexico, or | would answer the par; othing but id do He believed that the colony of | Sierra Leone, planted by Great Britain, from siaves taken over with her armies afier the American Revolu- Uon. was the germ for the redemption of Afries of | all the binck ra He believed thet, under Providence, the existence of slavery here was destined to work out the iestoration and ¢levation of the black race in | Afriea, by enlightening the race, and by finally re- ttoripg them to the enlighteoment of Africa. Mr. Maxwell argued that the reasons of the British govern- ment for the acknowledgment of the Republic of Li- beria were pure y commercial considerations, and he oped that in our acknowledgment we would be ace tuated by higher motives than these, He honed that we rbould be actuated by no sectional considerations in this great work On the clore of Mr. Mexwel adjourned, next year, The resolutions of Mr. M’Lane wore address, the moetiag President to be elected to-morrow for the w suinaton, Jan. 16, 1849. California and New Mexico Land Bill. The Senate were engaged upon several land bills and private cases to-day; but the most important subject up was the Jand bill for land grants, sales in lots of gold land, surveys, dc., in California and New Mexico. Mr. Breese briefly replied to the objections pre- sented by Mr Beaton yesterday, in his speech upon the bill, and reviewed the plan proposed by Mr. Benton as liable to various objections; and then, on motion ot Mr. Breese, the bill was recommit- ted to the Land Committee with a view to its im- | provement. Jt would be certainly impossible that | the bill of the committee, 80 vast ana peculiar in | 1s provisions, especially after the sifting speech ot Mr. Bentun, could be passed; and the most that we can now expect this session are some temporary provisions forthe gold lands, such as permits to dig, and a military government to keep the — fr. m mundering each other. Vv. Wasuineton, Jan. 16, 1849, Vistt of the Neto York City Guards to Washington. This morning, at three o’clock, the superb com- pany of the New York City Guards, Capt. McArdle, arrived in our city, and took up their quarters at Coleman’s Hote]. Notwithstanding they had been travelling nearly all might, they were up early in the morning, and made the most of the day. Be- fore they set out for their day’s visitations, Hon. F. A. Talmadge, one of their representatives 1n Con- gress, gave them a lunch, and a glass of cham- pagne. They visited the President, and passed in review before him at the White House; they visit- edthe Mayor’s, where they were kindly enter- tained; they visited the Patent Office, and they explored the Capitol, and paraded and marched through the beautiful grounds. They returaed to Coleman’s, took dinner, and left for Baltimore this evening, at five o’clock. They came unexpectedly, or our military companies would have been out to receive them. Their band of music, the Bloom- field U.S. band, frem Governor’s Island, gave us such music as we seldom hear. It charmed every Te mpany were much admired for their rachis 4 discipline; and they left a good impression behind them. Had theyremained a day longer, they would have seen more of Washington hospitality. As it is, we suspect they will remember their visit with pleasure. The whole company, band, and servants, numbered seventy-one men. They will probably pass a day or two at Baltimore and Philadelphia, on their return. Ww. Avaany, Jan 15, 1349. The Early er Primitive History of this State—Proposed Consolidation of the several Railroads between Albany and Buffalo— Legislative Proceedings, $c., $c. My attention was called to-day to a subject awaiting legislative action, which, I am sure, will be very in- teresting, not only to antiquariens and the literati of the State, but to the public generally, At the last session of the Legislature, Mr. Robert H. Pruyn, the active and excellent representative in the Assembly from the county of Albany, remarked to that body that there were in the posse.sion of the State, and in the hands of private individuals, certain parehments and papers, bearing intrinsic evidence of their authen- ticity, which contained information in relation to the early history of this State, of the utmost importance and value. The fact of their existence had recently come under the notice of the honorable gentleman, and an examination which he had been allowed to make of ® portion of their contents enabled him to vouch without hesitation for their genuineness, as well as for their great public importance. Single copies, only, of these papers were in existence; an accident might put it out of the power of the government to avail itself of the information which they contained in relation to portions of the early history of this State, which had been hitherto enveloped in entire mystery. ‘These considerations made it his duty to call the tention of the House to the subject. He considered that it was in the power of the State to deposit, among its archives, information whioh had been hitherto sought for in vain; the cost would be insignificant. He, there- fore, felt no hesitation in making the motion which he was about to submit; he moved that a competent per- son be appointed by this house te collect and transiat, these important papers, with instructions to report the result of his examination at a future session of the legislature The motion of Mr. Proyn, after some deiay, was assented to, and Dr. E. B. O'Callaghan, an Irish geatieman, now a resident of Albany, was select- ed by the House to perform this arduous labor. Dr. orc han is complished gentleman and a clas- sical scholar, and perhaps no more suitable eppoint- ment could have been made. By areport which he has fd peri Or eens 3 to the legislature, it is per- ceived that has collected a mass of original papers which fully realize the anticipations of the House, in relation to the value of the information which they contain. The report presented by him at this session is only one of a series which he designs to present at future sessions. I: is owing entirely to the laudubie efforts ot Mr. Pruyn, that thie excellent project was carried out by the State; he deserves the thanke of t! country. The following are the contents of the fir volume of these historical documents, prepared by Dr. O'Callaghan and just precented to the legislature :— of apers relating to the Iroquois and other I: Gian tribes, with illustrations....... 22, .

Twenty times the usual mumber of these historical documents have been ordered to be printed for the legiclature. A moveinent is on foot to effect the consolidation or upion of the several railroad companies between this city and Buffalo. it is supposed that this move- ment is favored by ® majority of the stockhoiders in the companies, and there is little doubt but the propo- sition wouid be favorably received by the whole of the travelling public. The uniom of these ratiroads into one has been sugggsted as the only adequate remedy for the evils which exist under th fesent manage- ment, and which have been the subject of universal complaint. The most intolerable of these evils is the detention of pastemgers at intermediate pointe be- tween Albany and BuGalo ; these detentions are an inevitable result of the present system of running the trains on the various roads ; @ train going West being due at Syracuse or Auburn, or any other terminus of road, must arrive ats certain hour mentioned in the schedule of running time ; if it does not arrive, the train of the connecting road starts without it; thus, passengers going to Buffalo frequently find, on their arrive! at.a terminus of someone of the roads, that the train of the connecting road bas gone We passengers have no aiternative but to wait un parture of the next tr ing West ; this ison the evils resulting from the present system of mauage- it it in, Of course, loudly eompiained of ; if it is for the urion of the roads is la egislature to pass @ law thie great object, toy Mr. offered @ resolution will, om the 6th proximo, nt ct ® United States Senator, to fill piace now occupied by John A.

Haxzissvure, Jan. 16, 1849. Quarter of 1—P. M. Inauguration of Governor Johnston. Only a moment 18 afforded, to be in time for the mail,to notice, in the briefest possible manner, the inavguration of his excellency, Wm. F. Johnston, as Governor of the State of Pennsylvania. The ceremonies took place in the hali of the House ot Representatives, in presence of the mem- gers of the Senate, heads of departments, and a vast concourse of military, citizeus, aad last, but not least, a pertect array of female loveliness Tne oath was administered by the Speaker, George W. Dareie, alter which the Governor read the following address :— Fairnps ayo Fecvow Citizens—The kindness and confidence of the people having cast upon me the exe. cutive functions of the government. and the prererihad cath to support the constitution having been adminia tered, I should be false to the sacred trust reposed ia me, end unworthy the confidence manifested, did | not deeply feel the responsibility of my position, and firaly resolve to merit yoursupport * * * * * «at the commencement of an administration, it has been s custom with the Executive to indicate the principles whieh will govern his councils, and the measures he may deviee for the benefit of the people, The annual message delivered at the opening of the present session of the Legislature. has superseded the necessity of a strict compliance with this usage, and on this occasion it will suffice to refer to a few genera! views of the pab- lic policy that shall rec at m steadiest support and oomnideration. At ‘under all circumstances, the highest obii public servant is the maint: dd Tepublican institutions.

Reception of the New York Guards—Fulling of a Warehouse. The New York City Guards, after spending twelve hours in Washington city, returned to Baltimore last might, and were met at the depot by the Independent Blues, and escorted to their quar- ters, at Barnum’s Hotel, where every arrangement had been made for their brief sojourn, Having spent the previous night in the oars, and the day in peram- bulating through the magnificent distances of the Capital, they retired early last night,to prepare for the round of visits to be attended to during to-day. Un- fortunately # soaking rain is falling this morning, which will prevent the proposed parade this afternoon, when they were to have been aecompanied by two of eur crack companies, the Washington Blues and the Sharp Shooters. They start for Philadelphia at eight o'clock this evening. Last evening the middle girder of the store of Messrs. Hayden & Cole, on South Gay street, near Pratt, gave way, and precipitated some thousands of of coffee into the story below, where numter of barrels of brandy were burst by the weight that had fallen on em.

Grand Master, having received 111 votes, whilst his competitor, Mr. J. H. T. Jerome, received 105 Mr. B.F. Zimmerman was elected R. W. D, Grand Master.
