cry reason to believe that the votes OF New York,
Pennsy vania, and perhaps Virginia, will be strong
fer General Scott. IL that Convention were to put
General SCOTS name before the country, it would
astonsh and paralyze the locotoco faction, as
much it would call forth the fire, the spirit, the
enthusiasm, Of the whse Union. No man can he Sc

Scott With him for a candidate, who doubts but
the election would be carried by acclamation' Oh!

Twenty-six Republics and Three Territories lar

the American Hotel by his Grand Chamberlain, the
Hon. Jesse Hoyt, Collector of the Port of New York
On Saturday the baggage and servants of his Excel
lency arrived On Thursday last his Excellency de-
parted from Washington in the railroad cars, but he
left them before he reached Baltimore and took his
own carriage for Frederick, Maryland. 1t is under
stood that he will pass through Chambersburgh
Harrisburgh, Berks County, Easton, New Jersey,
and thus reach New York by a route that
ever dreamed Of taking from Washington to the
north 1t will be perceived therefore, that in taking
this srcuitous route the consistency Of his Exceen-
cy's character is kept up throughout The direct
route to New York is through Baltimore and Phila-
delphia; this route General Scott invariably takes
but whoever knew his Excellency to take a d-
rect route in politics or geography when he could
