GEN. ScorT.-The report Of tho dismissal
Of this officer by the President, IS not as yet
confirmed. Tho New York Morning Co ,rier,
in speaking on this subject, remarks: "It Is
well understood by those conversant with rmy
affairs, that the President has had, for some
time past, the conduct Of Gen. Scott under
consideration, and wo are informed that on
Saturday last he made the following remark f:
Gen. Scott has left me no alternative but to
dismiss him. l did hope that he would have
seen the necessity of yielding obedience to
orders issued through the General in chief, but
he still continues his lnsubol d~ination, and If !
suffer it longer to pass unnoticed, it will be
questioning the authority Of Gen. Macomb."
II is added that Gen. Scott has " not only re-
fused to obey the General-in-Chief, but has
addressed q letter TO the President, declaring
his intention not TO obey any order which does
not emanate from the President Of the United
States 9"

A FEW CANDIDATEs.-The election of
Governor in the State Of Pennsylvania, begins
to excite much interest. One Of the papers
gives the following list OF gentlemen who are
talked Of as candidates for that station J..
Andrew Shulze. present Chief Magistrate ;
Samuel d. lngham, Of Bucks Gen. Samuel
M'Kean, one of the Representatives Of the
10th Congressional district +; George Wolf,
Northampton CO. George D. Porter, Lancas-
ter CO. Gen. adams of Berks co. the Rev.
Henry A. Muhlenberg, Of do. I; Chief Justice
Gibson; the late Gov. Findlay /; Alexander
Mahon, the present State Treasurer /; Samuel
Workman Of Washington CO. Gen. Isaac d..
Barnard, Of Chester Jacob Spangler Of York
and Col. Joseph Fry, Of Lchigh. The names
of Col. Pluck and Geo. Kremer are omitted.
Kremer, at the last ele ction, was strongly
talked Of as q candidate. Pluck, we believe,
is not at present eligible, in consequence of
having to serve out a short apprenticeship in
the Penitcntiary. Pennsylvania will long re.
greet her folly in burlesquing respectable Off
ces by clecting such men.

HisroRY OF COFFEE. The discovery OF
Coffee is generally attributed to the Prior of a
monastery in that part Of Arabia where the
shrub is indigenous. The facts Of the case,
however, as verified by the learned AdJalcu6cr,
whose manuscript is in tho King of frances
library, AID by NJ. GaIland, translator OF the
Arabian Tales, are az follow: Abou, the mid

who resided al Alden, near tia mouth Of the
Red Sea, having occasion TO irayc! into Persia,
foaad there som.e Of his countrymon, who were
in tho habit Of taxing coffee, and who we're
loud is the praise Of its virtues. On his return
10 Alden, no was cured Of sickness by the use
Of coffee. As Mufi Of Alden, and having oc-

N-The Editor Of The Journal spys that no
man oxerted himself more than Gov. Fenner,
10 elect Nathan Brown as Senator in opposi-
ton TO the Administration candidate, General
Whitaker. The same Editor sayt that Mr..
Brown declined voting at the rcce,t election,
and is therefore a Jacksonian. Gov. Fennsr
also opposed Mr.. Barges, the Administration
candidate for Representative to Congress
still, Gov. Fcnner was a friend 10 Mr.. Adams,
and hostile 10 Con. Jackson. How does The
Editor Of the Journal reconcile himself TO this ?
Did no consider Gov Fennor an Administration
man, when he was opposing the Adminisira-
ton candidates for office?

1-It is a source of qualification to the
friends Of Mr.. Adams. that none of those who
have advocated his cause have been guilty Of
indecorous and riotous conduct, before or since
Tho conclusion of the late contest. None Of

Of the Jackson prints at the election in 1924 /;

~ The editor Of the Journal states he has al
ways been politically opposed TO Governor
Fenner.-How can this be when the cdtor of
the Journal was for years associated With a
party Of which his EScelloncy was at the lead.
We presume the gentleman Of the Journal is
mistaken he has probably been opposed TO
Governor Fenner since the year 1924. This
We believe, but if his Excellency was a fncnd
to Mr.. Adams how could The editor Of the Jpur-
nal have been his political opponent even for
that period, is q question with us. This w,nls

MORE EXTRA PIETY.-The Boston. Re-

The writer says that people can keep a supply

l.! they are not able to do this, the Physicians
ought to keep a quantity to deal out to pa
tients. A writer in tho Evening Gazette, in

 Few persons we apprehend, justly ap- preciate the importance to family, of well conducted newspaper. And we be- lieve there are many families in our land, that do not regularly receive paper or a of any kind. Were the heads If such Antilles aware that they were de- priving themselves and their children of privilege that would have an important bearing on their future prospects al.a use- fulness in life, they would not longer live in the neglect of duty so important as papers of the day.
 In our childhooa we were intimately ac- auainted with afamily, residing in neigh boring state consisting of fourteen chil- dren, eight sons and six daughters The parents were poor, but honest and indus trious; nor.did they neglect to procure for their use well conducted newspaper. We we'll remember with what anxiety these children awaited the arrival of the post witch brought them intelligence from the four quarters of the g!obe.-- These papers assisted them in acquiring their education, furnished them with plea- sant and profitable employment. for many an evening hour, which might otherwise have gone to waste, stored their minds with useful knowledge, and prepared them l for future usefulness in life. @e l Nearly all of these children have rea- ched the age of manhood.
