And if the life OF General Scott. published in the
columns OF the National inteigencer and elsewhere, be
received by that high funclonay as the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth the less he says about
prureney OF fame the better.
The Major General reproyes officers in no gentle
fashion for writing their friends al home accounts OF
The operations of the campaign and determines TO
strain such writings in future, by enforcing certain army
regulations But whilst he applies the refined eplthes
quoted above TO the gallant Pillow and 10 the thrice
honored and now lamened Duncan. he made no con-
plant OF letters written home containing OF the
campaign going TO gloriiy the Major General, il not TO
add TO his prufiency OF fame

melee, and willing to admit that he hero

outrageous peversion Of the truth of history remains
corrected by him.
: Suppose that Worth Smith. Shields or a
Twggs, had procured suffered himself to be pulled
