The Union is right The public does expect
that Gen. Taylor shall not follow the precedent
set by Mi. Polk, but adopt more elevated STAN
dard Of qualifcation-that be will. indeed, seek
for ''diplomatic talents and, unlike his prede-
cessor appoint none ''but men Of the highest tone
of character, Of accomplished talents, and res
pected for their virtues, their services, and Their
capacity to serve the republic The Union pays
high compliment to the present Administration,
in taking it for granted that its course in this par
ticular, will be as far removed as possible from
that OF the last. Mr.. Clayton will justify the good
opinion thus generously expressed in advance
from the Flenikns. the smuggling Ellsworths
Bagbys, Saunderses, Nileses. sc. s., who, with.
drawn from obscurity at home, lower the charac
Ter Of the country abroad.

We should like to have seen The expression Of
scorn and contempt which difused itself over the
manly face of Winfield Scott, when he read the
following paragraphs from the Union and Enqu
rer. Can it be supposed that he has forgotten
the cruel taunts of the official organ about bis
letter 10 Mr.. Matct-its studied injustice towards
him throughout the whole Of The campaign--iis
lending itself TO the miserable effort to wrest from
him the glory Of those achievements which have
thrown halo round our arms, and to push for
ward the Presidents paltry minion as a rival,-
Can he have forgotten the intrigue, more than
tacitly approved by the Union, BY which he was
to have Been superseded by civilian in the com.
mand of the army We need but refer to the
course Of the Union and the Enquirer, in regard
TO Gen. Scott from the moment It became an OBJ
jet with the Executive to disparage and crush
him, to disgust every reader with the effort they
now make to hater and propi,iale Gen. Scott we
know to be magnanlmous. He can afford to for
give, or at least despise the malice of Mr.. Polk
and of all who thought to win court favor BY ira
ducing him. But he is not called Upon to forget
no Law Of charity would prevent smile Of
contempt and disgust from wfeathing his lips.
when he sees the awkward attempt at fattery Of
his late revilers.
MEDAL TO GENERAL SCUrf.
The Union. referring to the sword just presented ty
Virginia Gen. Taylor for " his military services and
merits;'' says:
We shall be happ5; in like manner, to commemorate
the compliment wb-h Virginia pays ano'her Of her
suns, and another Of distinguished Generals. We
unable say at this lime whether she bias passed
! resolution to presen, vove sword TO Major General
Winfield Scu,t. We presume such com pimeht will
be likewise paid to him by the Legislature Of his native

We would inform the Uuion that Virginia has already
