~ The N. Y. Evening Post finds fault

~ The N. Y. Evening Post finds fault
with Gen. SCOTT because he told the peo-
pie of Cleveland, who turned out in multi
tudes to see him in the midst of drenchng
rain. that he regretted that they had got wet
in their attempts to pay their respects to him !
In the estimation of the Post, a man who
could so far forget himself as to express a
friendly solcitude for the comfort of his friends.
is not worthy of the sutfrages of the people.
We do not believe that the people are quite
so sensitive as the Post is. Gen. SCOTT'S
telling his friends that it panied him to see
them wet and muddy, will scarcely have the
effect to depreciate him in the popular esti-
nation. 1t was remarkable characteristic
of the man and of his whole life, and eminent
ly worthy of him. Practical humanity is not
a fault, even when exempli6ed in a soldier, or
a candidate for the Presidency.

ES- To show what Gen. Scott's compan-
ions thought of his talents when he was quite a
young man, we make the following extract
from letter written by William Thompson of
Virginia to John Randolph. then member of
Congress from the Old Dominion. The letter
can be found in the life Of John Randolph, by
Hugh A. Garlrnd. Mr.. Thompson says:
We have been visited by the young ladies
of Liberty Stock and by its mentor Major
Scott I had rather have his aOisdona than
Acwtons or Locke'S, for depend on it, he has
dipped deep in the. science Of the mind
The single fact that President Madison in
vited Scott, when under % years of age, into
his Cabinet, is evidence that in his early man
hood he was one of the most extraordinary
men of the times in respect to menta: cultiva-
tion. political knowledge, and high statesman
ship And we all know, that, during the near
ly forty years that have since passed. his stu
ations and occupations in life have been such
as to increase vastly those powers and accom-
plshments which early distinguished him.

the famlilsr accents of many Of your Irish and
German citizens, whose countrymen fought So

there such essential service to their adopted

beloved country. 1t was then that called
around me my men that could be trusted, and
told them the hour had come for decisive
blow-that a work must be done on that
Canada frontier that would lift the hearts OF
the American people from the gloom of re-
cent events, and enable them and their chill

bonfires in commemoFation of American Vic

Gen. Scott remarked in conclusion that he
was severely indispoSed, and would be una
BILE to speak farther until after a nights rest.
He thanked the people for their kindness,
and retired amidst their applause.
The hour being late the exercises of the day
we're concluded, and the multitude dispersed.

Scott column, and secure the Electoral vote
of the State for the gallant old hero. in No

morning Gen. Scott, accompanied by Gen.
Wool and Surgeon Lawson, and several ciI-
zens, visited the venerable matron and relic
of the Sage of Ashland at her residence, where
General Scott paid his respects TO Mrs Clay,
and after a brief sojourn there. the party re-
turned to Lexington and visited the widow of
Col Mckee: and after short interview they
returned 10 the hotel, when the parlors were
thrown open for the purpose of allowing all
persons to exchange few words ard grasp
the hand Of the veteran hero, Scott During
this levee many gratifying incidents trans
pired and many warm congratulations took
place, which plainly manifested the attach
ment the people have for Gen. Scott
At 2 p. NJ General Scott and party were
escorted TO the railway cars by large con
course of people, where, amid the enthusiastic
cheers, waving of hats and handkerchicfs of the
assembled mass Gen. Scott took his leave.
On the arrival of the cars at Midway a
large crowd was assembled TO greet the con-
quering hero, who from the platform in front
of the cars, was introduced to the crowd by
Ex- Governor Metcalfe, and in a brief manner
returned his thanks to the assembly for their
cordial greeting. As the cars moved off
three loud and long huzzahs we're given.
The arrival of the old war scared hero at
Frankfort was signslled by the booming roar
of cannon and the stirring notes of Martial
music. The mass assembled to witness the
reception was immense, after an introduction
of Gru'l Scott to the committee of reception
by Judge Geo. Robertson, he was conducted
to the parties of the Capitol BY two military
companies, when Jas. Harlan, Esq, in well
coming address, extended to Gent Scott and
his associates the hospitalities of the city. and
then formally introduced the Old Veteran.
who, in an appropriate and eloquent speech,
extended his thanks for this additional mani
festation of popular favor.

sxThO Kalamazoo 7ezsgrup6 relat

EH The Kalamazoo Telegraph relates the
following incident as having occurred during
the speech of Mr.. Chandler, delivered in that
village few days since:
Washtenaw Wing.
"At the early gathering of the meeting
around the speakers stand. among the crowd
we noticed an lrishman, advancnd in years,
" ho had obtained seat at one end of the
platform. Our attention had been drawn
more particularly towards him from the fact
of partial acquaintance arising from cir.
cumstance, not necessary to be repeated here.
which had occurred a day or two previous.
He appeared to be deeply interested in the
remarks of the speaker. and more especially
as any allusion was made to Gen. Scott.
While Mr.. G. was speaking of the noble con-
duct of Gen. Scott in saving the lives of the
twenty-three Irish prisoners, he was sudden
ly interrupted by the person alluded to. with
II am one of these same men, and I propose
three cheers for the gallant hero aOho sared

for Old Chippewa, and three more for the
gallant old fellow who had fought under him.

ment. The Irishman has proof of what he
represents himself to be-"

The way Pierce "goes it's ia Indiana.

The Buffalo Courier says that Pierce is
'goiag it" in Indiana with perfect rush
here's a specimen of the way he goes it, -
which would lead to the impression that the
Courier mans idea of going it' are of the
moderate sort. The Locofocos undertook to
get up a meeting on Sept 10th, at Vincennes,
Indiana. Hon. John Petit was sent for to
make speech, and came. The meeting was
called to order BY the Chairman, in the Court
House.
Presently Mr.. Petit arose, mounted the
Judges bench, and with an indignant air
viewed the auditory and exclaimed:
"Fellow-citizens: My appointment in Vim
cennes has been proclaimed far and wide. and
in viewing this audience. do not feel at lib
erty to waste time and breath land by severe
exertion, probably cause hemorrhage Of the
lungs in addressing this meager assemblage

more interest in the success and prosperity Of
the principles of the great Democratic party,
and the election OF Pierce and King, I am not
going to trouble mysclfin exerting my pow
ers in promoting tue cause in this communi-
ty."
After concluding, he descended from the
rostrum amid cries for the old champion and
war horse of the Wing party, John Ewing.
who, being present arose and stated that he
came not TO speak. but to listen. and respect
fully declined The meeting being over three
cheers being proposed, we're loudly acceded
to, for Scott and Graham.

treme, is true sketch Of facts UittoH any
