Gen. Scott may have thought then, if Com
gress was once driven from the city, i would
PrObab y be impossible 10 rally a quorum Of
them, at any other point, andh would thus be
left in the Capitol, with q f~ruitlesS victory on
his hands, and entirely out Of his power 10 i'm.
prove il, by negotiations, for a favorable and
prompt termination Of the war. This view Of
the subject, is the only ground we can see for
the terms granted in this urmistice, joined prob
ably, by assurances through the British lega-
ton, that a favorable result would be obtained.
Whether they are good and sufficient reasons
for the step, will remain to be seen. We, Of
course cannot form SO correct an opinion on
the subject, at this distance, and whilst we re-
peat our confidence in the judgment Of Gen.
Scott, and that he has satisfactory reasons for
what he has done, still further reflection on the
subject, has not removed from our mind the
impression, that;he occupation Of the city, and
negotiations at the headquarters OfGen. Scott
in the National Palace, would have been more
advantageous, and been more likely to lead TO
a favorable and prompt result, than the present
mode Of conducting them.
After all, however, the greatest difficulty in
the way Of the first settlement of the difficult
ties, between the two nations, will be the dia-
metrically opposite view that the two govern
ments entertain on the subject Of Territory,
and which we greatly fear will be the rock on
which all attempts for peace viii be wrecked.

Ma. SINGLEToN.-As it seems from the let.
ter Of our Scott county correspondent, that
Mr.. Singleton has made himself a little too
busy with an article ia the Creole, we re-pub-
lish that article this week, and hope our cor
respondent will take The trouble to read it to
az many as possible. We wrote it without
consulting any one, and without the least i'll
feeling towards Scott county or any one Of its
citizens; nor have we ever heard a Wing Of
this county express any i'll feeling towards that
county or it's citizens. We shall endeavOr next
week to reply 10 the speech Of Mr.. Singleton
made here, in which the Creole and our cor-
respondent, as we are informed, furnished the
staple Of his beautiful discourse.

county Of Scott; a county with which we are
not connected in business interests, or similari-
,yOf pursuits in any respect-completeIy isO-
lated from US BY the Pearl River, but in the
opinion Of Mir. Singleton, having a sufficient
Democratic majority 10 counterbalance the
Wing maiorityin this county, and in which he
possessed a personal popularity, Under these.
circumstances, some members Of the parry,
who are FIR athe whole or none,' have suggest-
ed thati If the Wings of Scott are willing 10
bring out Gabriel Fielder, Of that county, they
are willing tC support him. We have someli
tie acquaintance in that county and with Mr.
Fielder, and think the nomination would be a
good one. What say the sovereign?

The Armistice.

This proceeding continues to be a subject Of
comment and discussion.
In rejecting on the subject, the only reasons
that occur to US It present that may have inau.
enced Gen. Scott in proposing the measure
are:
Thathe thoughthis force inadequate to take
possession Of and hold the city, against the ar.

Of the citizens.
That the supplies of his army was 40 redrc.

That he is governed BY Mr.. Trist, acting IN.

That II he entered the city, Santa Anna and
the Government would quit it, and then there
would be no party with whom the negotiation
Tor peace could be made. I
we DO not see much force in any OF these
reasons, unless il is the last one, though ali tbe
