The UNION TINES, published in Union
county, a respectable Democratic paper,
rebukes one OF its correspondents after
this fashion:
The writer Of the communication in
question, makes some silly charges against
Gen. irwin and Mr.. Patton-representing
them as "oppressors Of the poor"-''rich
nabobs s"-'Iron master" "federal cut
ihroats," and many other things which
we believe to be unfounded, or founded
only on mIsconception or misrepresenta-
dion. While all are entitled TO free ex-
preston of opinion or political questions.
we should not degrade or. convert the
press 10 party purposes, 10 the deep in
jury of private individuals, as well in the
pursuit Of their honest vocations in life.
ms in that which is more cslilnable than
riches-their good name.
This is well said by an opponent, as
also is the following, from another Demo
cratic paper, the Sunbury American:
Gen. Irwin, on the other hand. though
a Nhig, we know to be liberal minded
and honorable man. In advocating the
election of Gov. Skunk, we shall certain
iy not so far forget our regard for truth,
consistency and self-respect, as TO ira
duce Gen. Irwin as an Iron master. or be
guilty OF the still more contesnplible con-
duct Of lmpugning his motives on account
of his magnificent donations and the lib
era distribution Of his means for chari-
liable purposes, or the low demagogucism
which would array the people against
him on account Of his wealth. Such ap-
peals are degrading TO the character OF the
press,-disgracelul 10 those concerned,
sRd unworthy the character ofa free and
enlightened people. Charity is one Of
the nnblest virtues that can be prac,iced
by man, and is much too sacred 70 be
made the subject Of criticism by soulless
editors or profanc partizans.

LATER FROM GEN. SCOTI'S AR



The New Orleans mail having failed
last night we are indebted 10 the Mont
gomcry journal for The suboined inter-
esting intelligence, which, in the absence
of authentic news, we give in the form ii
has reached us, groundlcss as some of the
details probably are. The only facts
which seem unquestionable are the re-
pulse and plumber of our detachment at
the National Bridge, and the advance of
General SCOTS forces towards Me xico:
FROM THE NEW ORLEANS PIcAYUNE, Ex-
IRA, OF AUGUST 80.
The schooner Mississippi arrived from
Vera Cruz on Sunday. having sailed
thence on The evening Of the 2ist instant.
The most important news by this arri-
val concerns the movements of General
Scott. There had been various rumors
on the subject in Vera Cruz, many of
which our correspondent knew TO be un-
founded, but he writes us ON the afternoon
of Saturday, the 2lst instant, on what he
considers 1.-The best authority that The
vanguard Of Gen. SCOTS army was at A.
yoila on Friday. the 18th instant, and up
TO that date had not fired gun. This
news reached Vera Cruz by gentleman
who left Ayolla on the 18th, coming down
by way of Orizaha. Ayotla is but twen-
ty-one miles from the city of Mexico, be-
ing twenty miles beyond the pass OF Rio
Frio.
The expedition which left Vera Cruz
about the t3lh inst. TO reinforce Major
Laliy's command was composed of Capt.
Weiss company of the 18th infantry
Capt. Hailes company of the 18th infant
ry, and Capt. Fairchild's company OF
Louisiana Rangers, all under command of
Capt. Wells. They returned TO Vefa
Cruz on the 18th, after having proceeded
as far as the National Bridge, where they
expected to overtake Major LalIy's COM
mand. Major Lally. however. had gone
on, by subsequent advices at Vera Cruz,
1t IS known that he had carried up his
train in safety beyond Jalapa.

compelled TO fight their way to the bridge;

sr"Despcrate cases require desper-
ate remedies, . is rule in medical science
that the I.ocolocos have introduced into
their political action. In order TO keep
up the hopes Of their friends over the
Commonwealth. and deceive again the
honest portion of their party, they have
made the most violent assaults upon Gen.
Irwin in Centre county, whose unsulIled
character, great libcralily and well known
popularity, the sure presages of success,
have excited their vindicaive and malig-
nani hostility. The Belcfont Wing in
its remarks upon the course of the Lo-
cofoco press says:
"Nothing but that madness which IS
the sure forcrunner Of destruction could
have induced any man or party TO publish
so low and pitilul tissue of falschoods
Of the grossest kind, as is contained la the
last democrat" against james Irwin. 1t
is as wicked, end with all so silly, that
we do not deem 1t worthy a serious re-
ply We look for articles Of that kind
from that party-we have warned our
readers TO expect them-and are there
fore not surprised, and we believe no one
is. We are perfectly content to let
James Irvin's life and conduct answer all
such attacks. If character the most
pure and unsulied, the result Of lifetime
of uprightness and integrity in all the rcla-
tions 10 society-ol disinterestedness, kind
ness, and liherality 10 all with whom it
has been his lotto associate---is not de-
fence against the assaults of venal press
conducted by political adventures whose
hopes of Office depend upon the success
of their party, then, indeed, we have
fallen upon evil times, and public virtue
mast be at low ebb."

The following paragraph is from the
n. o. Com. Bulletin:-
1--WE repest that orders have hcen for

send two regiments frem his command to
Vera Cruz, and that the plan of his al
vancing on San Lais de Polosi had been
abandoned, and he viii not move from
his present position.
SIT is.left with Gen. Taylor TO select
the two regiments that are to go TO Vera
Cruz We have how no doubt but that
Gen. Taylor will carry oat his previous
intention Of resigning the command, and
will return TO the United States in No
