Toole Esmv This number presents quite a neat appearance and inmalter indicate some spirit and taste. W welcomo its !itor to the eorjj and wish him success in his enterprise. The Editor professes to publish an Independent paper, not relying upon any particular party for support, nor bound down to aiiy particular-views. He however, boldly defends Gen. Taylor from the ribald abuse of the LocofocQ press in quite a neat forcible article which we transfer to 'oar col urn : ,,Thal an alert and organised opposition to every administration, in a free representative government, should exist, none will question. It may be sufely assumed, as a gf-neral rale, that all snch govern ments are prone in pursuit cf some favorite policy, to over step their constitutional limits, or to stretch and abuse their admitted power. To check this propensity nothing' can be more salutary than a combination of political leaders out of. power to critici se every net, to pry into every suspected a btise, to denounce every usurpation. Snch an op position, whether prompted hy love of office or love of country, by whatever motive is the best safe guard of liberty ; because it keeps the great body of the people constantly alive to their own rights, and watchful of the acts of their rulers. Bui such opposition to be useful or successful, or ever respectable, must be judicious as well as vig ilant awaiting action, r.ot 'denouncing in advance, not imputing evil tests, where contrary presump tions are move natural ; not cavilling obout trifles before large measures are announced ; in "com mending when it can, but censuring when it must. To these general propositions no objection can be made. Tried by them, what has been the charac ter so far, of the opposition offered to the adminis tration of Gen. Taylor. Assuredly most unfair. It has been denounced in advance of it action ; its motives have been aspersed in the absence of all proof j its capacity disputed before there is room for judgment; its policy ssssiled before it is devel oped It has been condemned without a trial, and censured without a rason. Who knows what will bo the policy of the administration T Wheth er it will or will not favor a protective tariff; whether it will recommend a National Bank or not What are its view on Internal Improvements by the Federal Government, and soon.

The opiuion of that brave and virtuous man settles the fact. ; In this connection, and as not altogether in appropriate, we quote a, revolutionary incident. Col, Turtton of the British Army being defeated in a skirmish was overtaken in retreat by Col. Washington, and in an encounter with swords was crippled in his sword hand. Being afterwards en tertained at the house of Mr. Wylie Jones, of Hal ifax county, in this Slate, Col, Tarlton spoke of Col. Washington as "an ignorant fellow who could scarcely write his name." To which Mrs. Jones replied, looking at Col. Tarlton's hand, "it was very evident, if Col. Washington could not write his name, he could make his inarh." ' Aurora.
