Some of the leading Abolitionbb have ta ken warm hold of this Free Trade dlctjrine, and go iu strongly fur its adoption.

Thescore signs, we say, which demand the atten tion of the People the tax-payers. We presume every one knows the result of Free Trade its in evitable conseqnence is Diveet Taxation by the Ge neral Government. When the Custom Houses are abolished, as they mnst be, when Free Trade be gins, the whole expenses of the National Govern ment, amounting, even in time-, of "peace, .-to over THIRTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, must be levied and collected from the labor and property of the People. This vast sum, heretofore by. means of oor Tariff, has been laid on foreign goods and man ufactures, and collected at the Custom Houses un der the free trade principle, all tliese foreign goods must come in free, and the American People must pay up, annually, to the National Tax-gatherer, this large and annually increasing sum. of CoU Paink's conduct.

A publication had becii made fn the New York Evening Post, (L. F.;) intended to give a Tvlkr character to the Taylor movement in tliat City. The Post rightly supposed that such a connection would be fatal Mr. Tyler has done the friends of Gen. Taylor a great service by disclaiming any such connection. He appears to be fully aware of this aid says : t: An article in the Evening Post of Thursday has, by the merest accident, fallen under my observation, in which my name is connected with a political association, represented as existing in this cky, presided over by Mr.TowLE, nnd sustained by a broker, whose name is not given. It is alleged that the object of this association is the support of Gen. Taylor for the Presidency, and that I have 'occasionally assisted at its meetings. If this solely affected myself, I should treat it with the silence which I have habitually observed in regard to such, fabrications : but its purpose' and true design being to injure another by connecting my name with his, I feel myself impelled to say, that so far as I am con cerned, the article in the Evening Post is without the least foundation in truth. But I will not permit the trading politicians, a tribe that I heartily despise, to accomplish by trickery the inju ry of another through me; it is quite enough that I myself should have suffered from their insidious arts."

Taylor for the PresiJency has passed both branches of the Kentucky Legislature." Q" The Fremost Trial was brought to a close on Tuesday. The verdict of the court will proba bly be soon rendered. It is estimated that the cost of this affair to the government will exceed $100,000 s : . PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE. The message of the Governor of Pennsylvania states the public debt on the 1st of January to have been forty millions of dollars, which is $16000 less than it was last year at this time. The ordinary revenue exceeded expenditures last year by $463,000, The means in the treasury, the Governor thinks. will cancel the relief issues in a year or two. ' The amount of these issues is nearly $900,000. The Governor is in favor of a specie currency and bank restrictions. He regrets the inequality of taxation ; is in favor of protecting the rights of married women. I consider it'to be the duly of every one to correct such misfatements, aa, far as it is in his power. t I quote from the letter referred to : " While in camp, near Monterey, on 6r about 25th of June, Private Thompson, N,- C. Vols, under arrest was brought before the Colonel nnd having saluted him in the usual wny was. ordered to stand with his hat offc "Not doing this very readily. Col. Paine attacked him with his fists nd continued the scuflle for several minutes (Thompson in the meantime merely ward ing off the blows,) until exhausted by his effort?, he concluded this performance by throwing a tin Basin at his head. This occurred in the most public part of the camp." The whole story is this : On the evening before Thompson was carried before Col. P. he (Thomp son) was lying down about twenty-five steps from Col. P.'s tent, in company with some three or four others, in a state of intoxication. He was abusing Col. P. at a great rate, and was heard by the Colo nel, who wajs in his tent. He stepped, up to where Thompson and the others were, and asked "Who is this valiant man ?" upon which there was a dead silence. The Sergeant, tr Corporal of the guard, was called and Thompson ordered to the Guard tent, and the Colonel returned to his own. The next morning, Thompson was carried before Col. Paine and did not salute him at all, upon which, Col. Paine ordered him to stand with his hat off; when he replied,. ' I pull off my hat to no man"; upon which CoL Paine struck at him with a wash Basin (tin) and ordered him back to the Guard tent and Irons to be put on him.. That afternoon, Thompson at his own request, was carried before Col. Paine, when he said he was th'at morning laboring under the effects of his spree of the day before, and was sorry fyr what had hap pened ; when Col. Paine ordered tho Irons to be ta ken off and Thompson released. 1 was an eye-witness of the whole affair! The Colonel striking at Thompson might have been a little rain, but cannot be construed in any other way. - In the language of General Order, No. 44 : "Had the Company Officers of the North Carolina Regi ment, as a body, uniformly and actively discharged their duty to their men. and the Colonel, these un fortunate and disgraceful incurrences would not have happened." Col. Fame never has received that support from the subaltern officers of the Regiment, to which he is, as their commander, entitled ; and again if tuey had have kept t;thcir tongue between their teeth" a little more, in the presence of their men, much of tneieeung which now prevails would have been. uTided. I will refer again to the letter t Gen Taylor: 4;In two other instances, has be been guilty of vio lence to men under his command, not belonging, to his ueguaent -iu one ease using nia fists, ana laine. other, kuockiug a man senseless with the swingle-trea. f a wagon' 1 he first case where it says using his fists,77 I have never herd of before. I he other was a Teamster attached to the command, who kept a travelling Grog Shop, and when spoken to about it by Col. Fame, gave him some insolence, when he took up a Swingle-tree and struck him. 1 never heard of his knockinz him senseless. The whole . .. .... . letter to Gen. Taylor is about the smallest thing i have seen for some tune. 1 am sorry that any thine should have happened to tarnish the good name of our Regiment, which it sustained from the Brazos up to its present encamp ment, and which is to be attributed entirely to the rigid discipline of Col Fame. 1 here say, that there is no man, other than CoL Paine, in North Carolina, who could have taken charge of the Pvorth Carolina Regiment and sus tained for it the enviable reputation it has with the commanding Omcers or this Division or the Army Every North Carolinian has cause to be proud that he is the Commander of the Regiment The communication in the '-Standard," from ' A Vol un teer" h eads any art icje I have ever seen. 1 1 m ust have been written by some of those Volunteers at home, for in it he shows his utter ignorance of all military discipline as is evidenced by hs idea, that the Colonel, in introducing himself to his Regiment, shoukl have run on in a foolish, childish way. No, Sir, Col. Paiae commenced his discipline, which was rigid from the beginning," and ini-pressing upon his men the fact, that they conld never make Soldiers unless they were attentive to their duty and obedient and respectful to their Officers. This course he has pursued, and with what effect, will be seen from the tact, that never has there been a General Review, that the North Carolina Regiment has not been complimented, upon their Soldier-like appearance ana skill in manosuvermg. . 1 here are many parts of this communication which I would notice, but it is too contemptible, and I believe that the citixe&s of the Old North State will look upon it in this light. I am opposed to prolonging this discussion, but I have noticed these in justice to Col. Paine: JUSTICE. IrirltegcnVte on Monday 17th.

Jpn motion, the Senate laid aside the morning bBsiness, and proceeded to consider the order of the day the Ten Regiment Bill. Mr. Butler spoke in opposition to the bill. He considered it unnecessary. It would, he con- -tendd, greatly increase Executive patronage, al- reauynoo large and dangerous. He denounced a servile compliance with Executive demands, urging that Congress should exercise its own judgment and act upon its responsibility in carry ing out that judgment, and not to yield to every ex pressed wish of the President, merely because it was his wiim. Mr. B. said that Mexico had a right to complain of the terms demanded on our part as Uie jpnee of peace in which it can treat with you -if you purpose also, to take possession of the revenues of. the country, then you will require such an ad4Hion to the army now here as will raise it to 50,660 men." General Scott, it will be perceived, does not recommend that sueh an addition shall be made! to the army; he only says to the War Department, that if they design to adopt a cer tain course of procedure, that it will be rrecesa ry to increase the army to that amount. Pray, sir, what do you call keeping the central govern ment in motion occupying the State capitaU and seizing the revenues of Mexico." I call it subjugating of the country and annihilation of the governments of Mexico. Well, now, the President of the United States disavows that iu his message. He declares that he is opposed' to the annihilation of Mexico as a republic. Yet the proposition now is to augment the forces in Mexico, on llio ground that sucfe an increa ia necessary in order to attain objectswhich are, as I consider, tantamount to the entire subjuga tion of the country.' , ews, in a day of abandonment, worship- Calf.

The gen tlemen must remain iu a state of calm quiescence for at least three hundred' and sixty days, during which time they will not be permitted to refuse any lady who shall make love to them. To prove this t be the cose,' and that it is no new notion of ours, we will quote an extract from Un old volume, published in the-year 1G06, entitled . u Courtship,. Lova and Mat rimonie." "Albeit, it Is nowe a parte of the Common.Lawe. in regard to the social relations of life, that as often as every besextile year doth return, the ladies hav the sole privilege during the time it continueth, of 4uing iQve unio uie men, which they may doe either by wordes or lookes, as unto them it seemeth proper; and, moreover, no man will be entitled to the benefit of clergy -who dothe refuse t accept the offers of a ladye, or who dothe iu any wise treat her proposal with slight or contumely." .Long ago as the above was printed, it seems to iave,beeu a "parte of the common lawe " that the ladies should have the sole privilege of making love ' every fourth year, and what was then binding as i common law, is equally binding now, since it has D7 Potomac, the interesting Correspondent of the "Baltimore Patriot," says that Mr. Cabell, the able and high minded Representative from Florida, has been vehemently assailed for having given his vote to Mr. Winthrop Cor Speaker! The "Rich mond Enquirer," gives the cuer and u Tray, Blanch and Sweetheart," of the Locofoco Press, in Florida and elsewhere, at the Soath, are down in swift ear nest upon Mr. Cabell as guilty of having voted for a " Wilmot Proviso man "a traitor to the South," and what not! Now. every body knows, or ought to know, that Mr. Winthrop is radically opposed to the Abolition ists, and they to Mm! . As for the Wilmot Proviso, he eschews it wants nothing to do with it wishes it in Guinea, or elsewhere, out of the way ; but if the Loco Focos of the North must bring it up, he as a Northern man, if he votes at all, must vote for it. But how is it worse for Southern Whigs to vote for Mr. R. C. Winthrop for ' Speaker, than for South ern Loco Focos to vote for Mr. John W. Davis, for Speaker ?

Mr. Badger had the floor on the subject to morrow. In the House of Representatives, the first business in order was the calling of committees for report s, which beings through, Mr. Boyd moved a resolution to stop ihe debate on the President's Veto Message at 3 oe!ock. Mr. Stephens moved to lay the resslutiou on the table, which motion was negatived yeas 92, nays 94. Mr. Boyd then modified his resolution, so as to allow three hours for debate. Mr. Stephens moved to postpone until Monday, and demanded the yeas and nays. The motion led, i to) to 96. Many resolutions were offered---so me of them were adopted by suspending the rules. Most of them, however, lie over ; one of them, offered by Mr. Bolls, was for calling upon the President for information as to the present condition of the three million fund ; another, offered by Mr. Mc Kay, instructing the Post Office committee to in quire the cost of releasing the Post Office De partment from the contract with the Bay Route, and what the Richmond Company will carry the mail for. Mr. Chase offered a resolution declaring it in expedient to withdraw the army in Mexico to a defensive line. On motion of Mr. Stephens, it was laid on the table 96 to 69w Mr. Giddinzs' offered a resolution, ching the case of a negro purchased in a Congressional boarding-house, and appointing a select commit tee of five to enquire into the expediency of abolishing slavery in the district, or moving tne seat of Government to a free State. Mr. Gayle moved to lay the resolution on the table, negatived 85 to 86. Much ;c6nfusion prevailed in tho Hall, and iatjiCHrXiciiressetl tbes Chair at the same time. Ihe Speaker was much troubled to pre serve order, having frequently to rap with his hammer and call the House to order in an impe rative manner. Mr. Giddings wished to modify his resolution. Mr. Haralson moved to lay the subject o the table, demanding the yeas aiTd nays on his mo- t resolution was laid on the table. In the Senate on tho 18:h, Mr. Btldwin sub mitted a Resolution calling upon the President for any in lor mat ion he may. possess in regard to the extent and value of the public domain belong ing to Mexico ; also, in regard to the power that Republic may have to cede to any foreign Gov ernment sovereignty over such dotnaiu and the people thereof. The Senate proceeded to the consideration of the Ten Regiment Bill. Mr. Badger opposed the bill in an able Speech, charging that tho war was the immediate result of the unconstitutional act of the President La or dering the American army to the Rio Grande. After. Mr. Badger concluded, Mr. Foote of Mis sisaippK ot the floor- whereupon the Senate went into Executive session, and adjourned. In the House of Representatives, on motion of Mr. Vinton the House resolved itself into Commit tee of the Whole, Mr. J. R. Ingersoll in the Chair, and resumed the consideration of the annual mes sage of the President. Mr, Jamison addressed the Committee, and made rather a disconnected kind of a Speech, occasionally producing nueh laughter. Mr. Jones of Georgia followed, taking grounds against Mr. Polk's postulates. He quoted poe try readily in illustration. Mr. Robinson ,of Indiana, touowea, ueienamg the President vehemently, and strongly condemn ing the Whig. Mr. Tuck of New Mampgtwre, next goi me floor,;wben4he Committee rose, and the House adjourned. THE OREGO QUESTION. In replete the "ChavU&fon Mercury," who claims for Mr. Calhoun, the b&ar of haviag settled tSe Oregon question, the " Foyetteville Observer, thus remarks r "Mr. Haywood's Speech, of this State,- electrified the country. It took the highest and. boldest. and most patriotic stand. It was the first to do so which proceeded from his party. It opeaed th way for sundry smaller craft to trim their sails to the same popular breeze now clearly discovered to be so. Among these smaller men we do not of course in clude Air Calhoun, though he too followed Mr. Hay wood. At the time Mr. Haywood spoke, the coun try was anxious and uncertain as to the course Mr. Calhoun would pursue. u Instead of Mr. Calhoun having shaped the mea sures which resulted in peace, Mr., Johnson, of Ma ryland, it was, who offered the peace proposition which was adopted .13 the substitute for the defiatory Resolution of the House. It was understood to have been concocted by the Whig party ; and received the undivided support of that party in the Senate. Six Democratic Senaters are entitled to the credit of having joined the Whigs in its support. With out their aid it eould not have been p is-sed. They were Messrs. Calhoun Haywood, Lewis, McDuffie, opeight, and Weatcott. 1 , ! As we have said, we have no idea of .detracting from the merit of Mr. Calhoun's patriotic course on these two occasions. On the contrary, (lie deserves our warmest thanks. But the whole Whig party, and Mr. Haywood, deserve infinitely more credit for the peaceful settlement of the Oregon question." Gen. Taylor. Yesterday, as Gen. Taylor left the Government House to join the procession, he was met by one of our most respectable plan ters, who contrived to push through the crowd and get hold of the old soldier's hand. In the excite ment of the moment Mr F. M. Laferrieve Lev isque (for such was our planter's name) instead of making the usual salutation, addressing rather the crowd than hiuv said : 44 Gen Taylor, next man to Washington for vir tue and courage ; may ha be our next President for ihe good of this great country.'"

WHAT WE ARE. FIGHTING FOIL This important and" solemn- fjuestipn, we see, daily' engrosses the attention of Congress. I he President having disavowed the conquest of Mex ico aa the object of the war, it is found exceed ingly difficult for his partisans in the United States Senate, to show why then they ask for suclt'vast forces as their different war Bills seem to be conteoiplating. Id the debate on Tuesday last, Mr. Cass, in order t strengthen his demands for exienmng reinforcements, read an abrupt extract fron. a letter from Gen. Scott, (being iguoraut of the date, heaaid,) which is aa foJlows -. Augment this army to 50,000 men to enable them to occupy at the same time nearly all the Stab capitals and oiher principal -cities; to drive Guerilla and other robbing parties from the great highways of trade ; to seize into our hands all the ordinary revenues of th country, internals well as external, for the.support of the occupa tion, and to keep the central government in con stant rtotion and alarm, witil constrained to use for peace." , On this, Mr. Clayton, exclaimed : Well, that is what I call reducing or subjugat ing the country. Others will put their own con structlen on iu This increased force then, is not recommended by General Scott ; but, he sayB to the Department, "if yon propose to take all the capitals of the states of Mexico if you intended not only to put down the guerillas and banuits-J out to keep the central government oi mexicv , Constantly in motion, allowing it no fixed place ivy who responded, Oh yes, yes, sir.

Mr Crittenden stated the ol her day that it was estimated that each man in the Army, including officers, cost for his support one thou sand doMars per annum.
