It moreover. penied as a salutary check, upon that ar,ltrary domination, 10 which individuals J ' and par'.ies, when uncontrolled, so strooglr , tcnu.

He said he honored , General Taylor for his moderation, not only as a mart but as a politician General Tayt.o he said ought to be, and doubtless would be gratified to receive the approba tion and support 6f any of his countrymen, ' no matter by what party name they might be called.
