the old bellow, who by. some credulous people, is
thought entitled to- a little credit for that same glo

where the balls could not reach him while Lis men
were bravely fighting the battle. Queret (by the
way.) When Gen'l. Taylor was down that ravine,
where ball n'or bombcould injure, was Capt Bragg
down there too firing away up at the sun, instqad

him from Geu'l. Wool atSaltillo, an impression that
Gen:L Taylor, 'has "uttered a slander against our
brave Volunteers" that GeiCl Taylor " has declared
in an official letter that the N. C. Regiment could
not be relied on in the hour of battle, and that their
conduct had been not only highly unsoldierlike and
insubordinate, but disgraceful and cowardly.' Here
is the letter as published (whether correctly or not,
we do not know) in the last "Standard."
" Camp near Monterey,
August 19, 1847.
Mr Dear General: Your Ibtter of yesterday
has thismomeut readied me ; and, although I regret
led to make auy change to my order iu relation to the
number and description of troops ordered to join the
columu under the command of General Scott, yet I
am induced, on your representation of the state of
the feelings which exists among the Mississippi aud
North Carolina regiments which, I am deeply mor
tified to hear is so highly unsoldierlike and insubordin
ate to contermand, for the present, so much of the
said order as relates to Captain Deas's company ; as
you very correctly pay, iu this 6tate of things, the
only troops fou could rtly o, in the event ef meeting
the enemy would be the Virginia regiment. your artil
lery, $-c, including your dtagoous aud mounted men.
The unwarrantable attack made on Colonel Paine,
for no other cause but (that of doing his duty with
zeal, and in a soldierly mauuer, and compelling those
under him to do so, is the most disgraceful and coic
ardly occurrence which has taken place siuce the com
mencement of the present war. 1 he prompt mea
sures you have taken to put down the same, which
are entirely approved, I hope will restores proper
state of discipline in that corps, (the North Carolina
regiment,) and that it will, for the lime to come, by
its good conduct, made amends for the errors it has
fallen into.

Official : IRVIN Mc DO WELL,
'Assistant Adjutant GeneralP
Has Geu'l. Taylor in this letter, slandered our
brave Volunteers? He was at Monterey. A letter
from Gen'l. Wool gives the first information of the
uuhappy stale of affairs then existing in our Regi
ment, in a letter which the "Standard" does not
publish, and which we have no means of seeing.
Gen'L Taylor replies that he is "deeply mortified to
hear" "on his representation" that a state of feeling
exists so " highly un-soldierlike and insubordinate'
Is this the language of a slanderer ? ' Are slanderers
usually 11 deeply mortified,11 not onlywhen they utter
slanderous charges, but even when .they hear of
them ? The Editor of the " Standard" isfa Lawyer.
He must? or ought to know that to constitute slan
der, there must be maice, even, in the person who
originates the charge. Strange slander is that, which
causes one such deep mortification even 'to hear-
Whether Gen'l Wool's represeutat ions were cor
rect or not, we shall not now discuss. They were
evidently such, as if true, would satisfy not only
Gen'l Taylor but every body else, that "in this state
f things" it would be Bafer to rely on others "in
the event of meeting the enemy," than on those who
were charged whether truly or not, with being en
gaged in a mutiny.
What means had Gen'l Taylor, at that distance
from the scene, of knowing what was the state of
things then existing a Sultillo, except from the
representation of the Officer next in command?
Was it forhim to distrust their statement? Was
he to believe it false? iBut be does not, except by
repeating what Gen'l Wool had written, and with
the qualifications, "as you very correctly say" and
" in this state of things? declare that odr Regiment
could not be relied on in action. All this would ap
pear elear as day-light, ; if the " Standard had seen
fit to publish the letter of Gen'l Wool to which this
is a reply. Why 'Was it not published? Did the
Hon. J. D. Wesicott of Florida" tell the Stand
rdwbat part 4t the " Document"" to publish and
what Uf leave out t Did the Honorable gentleman
tell him what to underscore and what to omit in
Senri Taylor's letter? Did he authorise or 6tggest
the garbling that appears evident on the face of the
letter as prinled ? We 'thought Senator Denglass
ancf old Sam Houston had charge of North, Caroli
na! We would not marvel much if that mnltifarl
ousman, Senator Foote, should next place his hand on
the head of good natured old Rip Yan Winkle,
after Westeott. We arecrlin down fast '.; .
But the most outi-ageouS misrepresentation of this
business ip, that Gen. Taylor had declared that the
1 conduct of the North Carolina Regiment "had been
"disgraceful and cowardly. Why read the "letter
again. . The old Hero says that the attack on-CoL-
Paine was a " most disgraceful and cowardly occur
rence." It could, be disgraceful, and cowardly only
to those who made it. 'Who are they t We believe
that there were only three of the North Carolina
Regiment in it. The rest of the actors were from
the Virginja'Regimeutj We have no doubt that the
f act was disgraceful and cowardly in the highest de
gree. We never doubted but that those engaged in
that assault on a meritorious officer, whose great
fault was "doing his duty with zeal and in ft sofa
dierly manner, aud compelling those under him to
do so," deeply disgraced themselves. We think so
still and we say it without exception or reserve.
But we certainly do not dream of making it as a
charge;pon the ho7e fifgiment. ' According to our
arithmetic, there is a wide difference between three
and eight hundred. Gen. Taylor did not speak of
the Regiment. He did not mean the Regiment. He
meant those who were engaged in that disgraceful
attack on Col. Paine, and nobody else. And they de
served it richly. 4 m
This attempt to pluck the well-earned laurels from
the brow of the old Soldier, i3 ineffably weak as well
as grossly wrong. The people, in' whose hearts he
is enshrined so surely, will never bear it. They feel
that Zachary Taylor is a good old man, incapable of
slandering any one on this broad earth. And our
North Carolina Volunteers have heard his voice of
approval too often, to listen with patience to those
pitiful attempts to alienate him from their affections.
THE QUIBBLER CAUGHT !
The last " Standard" in its vain endeavors to ex
tract a drop of consolation from the overwhelming
result of the Pennsylvania Election, cries out that it
is "a most alarming spectacle to see Southern Whigs
throwing up their caps; and exulting over the Free
Soil triumph in Pennsylvania." What consummate
hypocrisy ! If the Loco Focos had carried the State'
by a large majority, what a glorification and huzza
this same Journal would have made. But without
indulging in any such supposition, we need not go
at all out of the way, to convict that sheet of an in
consistency, as gross as it is characteristic we have
the evidence in the very number of the " Standard"
in Which the foregoing remarks appear. In that
number, the Editor congratulates himself upon the
prospect of Cas3 and Butlers carrying this State, in
November, as the late " Free Soil movement nrill
draw off several thousand totes from Taylor and Fill
more " As there is no Van Burcn Ticket out in
this State the Jamestown Convention idea having
been abandoned these votes must be cast (accord
ing to the " Standard's" hopes and calculations) for
the Baltimore Nominees. The "Standard" howev
er, manifests no holy horror, no virtuous indignation
at the "alarming" idea of carrying this Southern
State for its own party, through the agency of Free
Soilism ! ! Or in other words, it is willing to wink
and connive at Abolitionism, in order to effect party
purposes!!! Is it not so?
The assumption, however, that the late Free Soil
demonstration will subtract largely from our strength
in the.State, is as false, as it is preposterous. We
do not mean to insinuate, that the Orange affair was
conducted by, or composed entirely of Democrats;
but we do assert, upon the authority of those who
should know, that members of that party had the
principal agency in the transaction. They may have
labored behind the scenes ; but, one thing is certain,
they labored efficiently.
Equally unfounded too is the assertion that our
late glorious triumph in the "Keystone" State Was
effected through the assistance of Abolitionists. It
was perfected by the Mechanics the laboring men
the hard-fisted yeomanry men who were deceived
and deluded on the Tariff question, in 1844, by Mr-
Polk and his friends. They are determined to be
made, no longer, the victims of a fraud, so gross
within itself and so disastrous to their interests
and they will rally again in November, as they have
just done, to the support of that party, that will cor
rect and reform the abuses of the present Adminis
tration !
PONDER THE QUESTION !
We are convinced that if those of our Democrat
ic friends who are disposed to be candid, will pause
and weigh well in their minds the charge of Wil
niot Provieoism. urged against Gen. Taylor, -they
will, at once, with that promptness and indignation
such conduct merits, renounce all allegiance to a
Party, that is compelled to resort to such vile means
to prop up its sinking hopes. There is, if we mis
take not, a strong and ruling ? principle in the hu
man breast, which can, instinctively, as it were, dis
criminate between justice and injustice. The ques
tion to be duly considered and impartially weighed
is this: Can Gen. Taylor, a Southern Slaveholder
identified with your interests and institutions who
says that, in the event of his election, he will admin
ister affairs for the good of, the whole Country a
man, who, thr&ugh a long and useful life, has sus
tained a character above suspicion or reproach can
such a one prove recreant to the institutions of those
among whom he has lived, sacrifice his own and your
interestsj thus inflicting serious injury upon a large
section of the Country while by pursuing an oppo
site course, he inflicts no injury upon the interests
of the North, but merely combats, an opinion as to
the morality of the institution of Slavery ? O r is it
safer to trust tSeu. Cass who is a Northern man,
with Northern ideas about the"matter who is pro
claimed by his neighbors the uncompromising advo
cate of free soilwb ence expressed a desire to
totb for the JViimot Proviso f Is it right, to lend
support to the success of that Party, that de
nounces my own Southern neighbor as unsound up--on
issues of vitality to the South, while it upholds
and applauds the course of a Ioxthern citizen, avow
edly, in times when not feeling for Southern votes,
hostile to its interests ?
Pause and ponder well these things. Cite utter anee'ttf

to that ytttrancc, by voting for the slandered old Hero

THE SONS OF TEMPERANCE!
Made a most imposing display in this City on
Thursdrty night last, on the occasion of the delivery
of some Public Addresses in the Methodist Episco
pal Church. At an early hour the church ytas filled
with Ladies and Gentlemen, and soon the members
of the Order made.their appearance, clothed in their
beautiful Regalia the Grand Division in Scarlet,
and the Subordinates in pure, unsullied white, to
the number of abeut 100. After their arrival in the
Church and an Impressive Prayer, by the Ret. L.
K.. Wiley, Chaplain, a fine Temperance Ode was
most exquisitely sung by Messrs. Cookie, Cosby,

After singing another Ode, the Rev. Mr. Wal

happiest Addresses we ever heard, it was replete
with matters of fact which had come under his own
observation-and knowledge, showing the deleterious
effects of the use of intoxicating drinks, and the
happy results of a life ef total abstinence interspers

have not time for a more extended notice, but we
must say in conclusion, that such a turn-out, with
such speeches, cannot but result in great good to this
prosperous and praise-worthy Institution, in this
community.

to attend a public Dinner, proffered by natives of
North Carolina now citizens of Macon. In this ad
ditional mark of respect from the natives of my good

to uic on all occasions by her worthy sons. From
no class of our citizens could I receive such eviden

whilst the early associations revived, add much to
their interest and value. ' My limited time in your

should derive from an acceptance of your cordial and

QUERIES TO BE ANSWERED at leisure.
Was it down in that Ravine where Gen. Taylor
-was, (according to Major Wilder,) that Jefferson
Davis was wounded ? Aud was he lying there when
old Zack told him that "the wounded were lying
behind him, and that he would never pass them
alive?" . ' ,
Did the Engineer who pointed out that hiding
place to Major Gaston H. Wilder, ask the Major if
he was not hungry ? and if it was not a long time to
"breaJifastV1 "
Did the Major tell the Engineer that he volun
teered once himself but was like the Donkey "what
wouldn't go," until Mr. Polk gave him a fat office?
Was the Engineer who pointed out that place of
concealment a Loco Foco, who really intended to rob
the old Hero of bis well-earned honors? or was it
merely a quiz by some good natured fellow, who saw
that his disciple was verdantj and was willing to
make him appear ridiculous ?
Did the Major carry out any particular quantify
of Documents, for distribution, when he went out
West to pay off the Soldiers ? and does Uncle Sam
pay him for that service ?
Who keeps that pile of documents in Raleigh,
that no Whig is allowed to' see, which prover(!) that
Millard Fillmore is a rank Abolitionist and that
Gen'l Taylor is pledged not to veto the Wilraot
Proviso ? And who sent them here for distribution?
Is Geu'l Taylor a weaker man, a bigger liari a
worse swearer or a greater coward now, than he
was when the Democracy were thinking so strongly
of runink him themselves' for President ? '
