Jealousy Of his popularity as a presidential candi-

more fnctious crew in opposition to any govern

here. Gen. Scott ut home was bepraised by these
wretched grumhcrs, but at the head Of The army,
conducting the war with v,gor, and exhibiting
patriotic condnct. he subjects himself to their
obloquy-a sufficient proof that he is now i'll the
