Hon. j. p. Kennedy.

The appointment of this gentleman to pre-
side over the Navy Department gives general
satisfaction. The Baltimore american says Of
him:
"His past life affords guarantee that he will
bring an ability, energy. and fearless performance
of whatever the line of duty may impose upon him,
which will make him valuable member of the
Cabinet, and firm, efficient, and prompt public
officer. Whilst the President has bonored our
townsman by the selection he has made, we feel
assured that be will honor the poet to which he has
been appointed"
A Democratic correspondent of the Ports
mouth (Va.) Transcript thus notices the ap
pointment Of Mr.. KENNEDY:
"Mr. KENNEDY is an unadulterated Wing, and
deserves Cabinet honor. He is polished gentle
man, and accomplished scholar, with a warm and
generous heart. Mr.. X. will fill the Secretaryship
with dignity for the next eight months
Mr.. KENNEDY at the age of twenty-one was
chosen by the city of Baltimore as member
Of the Legislature of Maryland, since which
he has ever held distinguished rank as poll
tician and man of letters, no less than repu-
tation for great urbanity and worth as private
citizen, ...' ....'.

see how this mode of doing the thing will work.
We think Congress will get good printing under
itatcheap rates. Ifitis thought by some that the
committee have exceeded their powers in max
ing the new contracts, they have done enough to
manifest disapproval OF their course; and if
there is any value in the documents that are
withheld, they have done enough to punish
themselves and the people for mistake Of the
committee. We see no other way in which
this snarled skein can be untangled.

In the Senate, yesterday, after the usual
morning business, MIR. SUMNER moved to take
up for consideration the resolution submitted
by him on Tuesday, directing an inquiry by
the Judiciary Committee as to the expediency
Of reporting bill for the repeal of the Fugitive
Slave act. After considerable discussion, the
motion was refused-yeas 10, nays so. The
Indian Appropriation bill was then considered.
In the House Of Representatives the River
and Harbor bill was under consideration.

General Scott's Health.

We learn through our Baltimore correspon-
dent that General Scorr has entirely recov-
cred from his recent indisposition, and is en-
joying his usual good health at Old Point. "On
Monday" our correspondent says, she was
called upon by the Mayor and City Council Of
Baltimore, who were on visit to Old Point
by invitation of the steamboat company, and a
most pleasant interchange of civilities took
place, all being pleased with the gentlemanly
and urbane manners of the distinguished sol
der and patriOt''

IL Scott a Statesman!

Such is the question beloved out by every Lo-
cofoco press in the country. We know that these
canting hypocrites are well aware that they are
asking question which none but simpleton, who
Ia ignorant of the history of his country, would
ask seriously. But still they bawl loud as
they can, "ls Scott a statesman?'
We once more answer this query by referring
these anxious inqurers after truth the history Of
the United States They will find some evidences
therein recorded that he has performed civil ser.
vices which have won him the title of statesman,
Let them but read the order drawn up by him and
published Immediately after the capture of Mex
leo, and they will find in it conclusive evidence OF
his legal and administrative abilities. Without
that order, it has been well observed by Mansfield,
discipline could not have been maintained in the
army, the Inhabitants Of Mexico could not have
been conciliated, and consequently the campaign
would have failed, for the sole object Of the cam
paign to make peace. General Scott was
bred lawyer, and the reader will see that IL II
order is drawn up with an accurate knowledge Of
the principles bearing upon the case and the best
means of administering justice, where civil law
cannot be appealed to. 1t is one Of the best legal
documents ever issued by any functionary Of the
Executive Government. 80
