General mStrOnS.

At the head of the Union newspaper appears
the name of RoBERT ARMSTRONG, as its proPri
etor and responsible conductor. We believe that
be is worthy and honorable gentleman, but
he has surrendered the columns of his journal
to very exceptionable uses. His co-operators
will bring disgrace upon his gray hairs IT he
does not curb their RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Does Genera! ARMSTRONG believe that Cen
eral Scorr has ever misapPlied the public mo
ney? Tha. he has made returns of moneys
expended in secret service which have not been
80 expended? That he is greedy of money
that does not belong to him. and that if select
ed he will be surrounded by men who will
plumber the public treasury, and find prece-
dents in General Scorr's career to encourage
and justify them?
Does General ARMSTRONG believe that Cen
eral SCoTr is "vain, weak, and aristocra,lc,
intolerant to interiors, and eaten up by suspi-
cion Of all men whom he thinks stand in his
way"
Does he believe that General ScorT is less
patriotic, less national, less conservative than
General PIERcE2
Does he think the fair fame of pure and up
right man like General Scorr should be made
the sport of caumny and libel-that he should
be represented as a man devoid of intelligence
and personal integrity, and in this light held
up u a country whose arms he has covered
with glory?
Can he sink the character of soldier and a
gentleman by permitting his own honorable
mama IN ho ocooco fod with opvaDnn,ed lihejS
and ribald caricatures2
We are DESTROYS of conducting the canvass
On the terms of manly and reputable con-
troversy. We think the claims of General
ScorT upon the gratitude Of his countrymcn
far surpass those of his competitor. We can
not thins of comparing his half century of Illus
trious service with those of man of whom
the country has never heard until it became the
supposed interest Of politicians whose princi-
pies we abhor-,he leaders of the Nashville
and Buffalo Conventions-to present him
as their candidate for the Presidency. We
think that the men who surround General
PIERcE-who .'chose and created" him pre-
cisely the most dangerous class Of politicians in
the land. We have no sympathies with the
KINGS, VAN BURENs, CLEvELANps, SUMMERS
MoLoNYs, CAMPBELLs, STANToNs-who have
united to place in power Freesoil and Seces
sion dynasty. Our grounds Of hostility are
public and political We make no war upor
private character. We seek to backen the
reputation of no respectable citizen. We have
no fondness for calumny and scandal. There
is no lack of materials for this kind Of warfare
if we were disposed to employ them; but it is
not the mode in which men of intelligence and
honor should conduct political contest. Lei
US be -politically-wthout forget
ting that we are gentlemen; and SO govern our
language and our conduct that we can meet
after the contest is over without feeling that
any sentiment of selfrespect should prevent us
from consulting together with regard to th"se
great interests which concern the honor and
progress and prosperity Of the country, rather
than the ascendency of party.
