The Canvass ln Temmcssee.

There is no installing the spirit of the
Wings in Tennessee. In no State in the
Union have they entered upon the canvass
with greater array Of talent and a more
determined zeal than IN Tennessee. A
great many important changes are daily ia
king place from the Locofoco to the Wing
ranks. Among the encouraging signs every
where apparent, we notice letter from
Lieut.. j. w. Shields, of Sewer county,
which appeared few days ago in the Knox
vile Register, in which the writer, Dem
ocrat, declares his determination to support
Gen. Scott. He says;
al was a Democrat and at first felt like
supporting Pierce but when remember
ed the trials and dangers had gone through
with while under Scott, did not feel that
l could do my feelings justice and vote a
gainst him.
lie declares Gen. Scott 'as noble COM
mander as ever went forth to battle" and
says, 'When heard my brave old COM
mander abused, could stand it no longer, -
adding:
"You, my brother soldiers, remember
how he visited the hospitals in the city of
Mexico, and how he administered 10 the
wants of the sick; furnishing each man with
shirt, blanket, and pair of shoes, and
one dollars worth of tobacco; and l. for
one, drew all these comforts, and a KNAPP
sack also, as did oil others who lost theirs
in BATTLE;
He further says:
"The soldiers under Scott's command
love him. You felow-soldiers, remember
when he was arrested you remember the
morning he left the army for the United
States and what was done that day. Yes,
every regiment marched around his quar-
tiers, clad with badge of mourning, in or
der to show how they honored and loved
him. You know we had orders not to cheer;
but one of the volunteer companies was OBJ
liged to cheer, and cheer they did, sc.
This is the sort of sentiment that will give
to Gen. Scott thousands Of votes among his
old soldiers.

Gen. scott rs an Orator.

The editor of the Lowell Journal, who
was an officer under Gen. SCOTS command
ill Mexico, says:
sIt is not an uncommon thing for Gen.
Scott to make a brief, terse and eloquent
address to his men on the battlefield. On
such occasions he is extremely happy, and
the earnestness and feeling with which he
speaks show that his whole heart is IN
what he says. Many of these addresses in
Mexico might be cited. After the fall of
Chepultepec he rode up the hill, where our
soldiers were shooting down the Mexicans,
after they were taken prisoners or had sur
rendered. He closed feeling address, IN
which he dissuaded them, in the moment
of triumph, from doing any act that had the
appearance of inhumanity, with these
words: Deeds like yours are recorded IN
history. Be humane and generous, my
boys, as you are victorious. | will get
down on my Bonded knees to God for you
tonight Some of his answers to the Mex
lean Commander-in-Chief were brief and
to the point. The night before the battle
of Chepultepec, Santa Anna sent word to
Scott that unless he surrendered IN tour
hours he should show him no quarters =
Gen. Scott sent word back that he found
his Santa Anna's) quarters so far very
good, and that he should take possession OF
the rest Of them without asking HIM to
show them to him! Again, when the troops
were about entering the Capital, Santa An
ma sent to Scott for his terms. The latter's
reply vast have no answer to give and
no questions to ask 1t was time for &C
ton and not for parley.
Gen. Scott was educated to the bar, and
on ordinary occasions (off the field,) he
speaks rather slowly, and with great delb-
Grafton, as we'll as with great eloquence.-
His different speeches before the Court of
Inquiry in the National Palace in Mexico,
were admirable specimens of his oratory
and his eloqueace. Indeed there was some
thing akin to moral subhmity in that scene
the great Captain of the age and Con-
querer of Mexico, prisoner, as it were, in
the capital Of the country he had conquer
ed, and on the very theatre of his brilliant
yictones-which invested his appearance
before that tribunal with degree of thrill
ling interest never equalized or witnessed
on ordinary occasions"

Going il i'm Crowds!

The Harrisburg PA Telegraph brings
us the following sign from Pennsylvania.
We hear now and then of flashy, gassy
Wing boiling the nomination of Scott; but
here is the way the honest Democrats aban-
don the Pierce ranks. They quit in gangs
of fifties and hundreds. Push on the col
umn. SCOTS brigade leads, and the enc
my retreats before him:
a SIGN IN PENNSYLVANIA WORTH Re-
coRDlNG "A meeting of Democrats who
have never voted Wing ticket, but who
now 60 for Scott and Graham, was held in
Hellam township, York County, on Satur-
day, the 2lst instant. One hundred and
twenty democrats were present, who raised
a pole over one hundred feet high, to which
was attached flag, on which is inscribed
in large letters SCOTT, GRAHAM, AND
THE CONSTITUTIONS
The whole affair was conducted exclu-
sively by the Democrats. Not Wing was
allowed to participate in it, although num-
Der were present to witness the perform
ance.
Here is a sign worth recording-and
worth the attention Of politicians in other
States, York county is one Of the strong
holds of Locofocoism; and if her honest yo-
tiers follow the example ofthese Democrats
Of Hellam township, the majority it will
give for the old Hero, who has served his
country so well, and who deserves so just
ly the gratitude of his countrymen, is not
easily calculated. We believe this to be no
isolated sign of the times-but the indica-
ton of the popular feeling in favor of Scott,
that when told through the ballot boxes will
not only astouna our opponents, but aston
ish the most sanguine friends OF Scott them
selves.

with more respect than it deserves late
ridiculous assertion, by some silly or reck-
less writer in the Union" newspaper, that

Ter IN cosent reply, in which the force of
the following remarks cannot fail to strike
the reader: t
"lf the Wings gave aid and comfort to
the public enemy in the Mexican war, it is
a singular sort of retribution by which it

has been raised TO The Presidency already by
virtue of his services and achievements in
that very war, and that another Hhig Gen
