Movements OF General SCOTT.

.
A grand dinner was given to Gen. Scott on
Saturday evening. The Hon. Mr.. Cook welcomed
the General in an eloquent speech, compliment
ing him on his brilliant military career, and al
luding to the offer made to him to accept the
government Of Mexico.
Gen. Scott responded in a long and most in
teresting speech. He said there was misun-
derstanding about the Mexican offer, which he
would take occasion to correct. 1t was made to
him not by the government, but by individuals Of
great wealth and prominence. Their offer was
one million bonus and a salary Of $3.50, 900 per
annum, to be guaranteed in any manner pro-
posed. They expected an ultimate annexation
of the country to the United States, but, con-
tinued the General, ~ loved my distant home
and was opposed to annexation" He spurned
the offer and came back to die on his own soil.
Gen. Scott in concluding gave as sentiment:
''1he city Of Saadusky: May she continue to
grow and prosper until equal to the most pros
porous city of the West" which was received
with cheers.
On Sunday Gen. Scott attended church, and
kept his room the remainder of the day.
The hotel is thronged this morning, and pre-
parations are making to escort him to the cars

fryANcrs OF rHE orNERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS

Since 1850, the National Debt has been
slightly reduced, and the Debts of the States
not much increased in the aggregate, though
Virginia and perhaps one or two others have
added something to theirs. But instead Of
State Debts, We have an enormous increase Of
County Debts, Railroad Company Bonds, City
Water Loans, &c. &c. of which very large
proportion has been sent abroad to pay for
Railroad Iron and Goods, and sold ut a consid-
cradle discount The amount Of our Foreign
Debt never increased SO rapidly in any former
period as ii has done during the present year;
and the Bonds are now flooding to Europe by
Millions. One of these days, there viii come
