Louisiana-Again.

We yesterday gave hurried sketch of the
proceedings of the great ratification meeting in
the city of New Orleans; and we have now the
pleasure of gracing our columns with an extrac'
from brilliant and chivalric article from the
New Orleans Bulletin, edited by Colonel Sey-
mour, gentleman of rare talents ana accom-
plishments, and whole-souled Wing. Colonel
s. is native of Georgia. He figured extensively
and adyantageously in his native State, and was
Messrs Robert Toombs and Alexander H. Ste,
phens. 1t will be seen by the extract below that
the editor of the Bulletin (who had been fayora-
BILE to the nomination Of Mr.. Fillmore) endorses
to the fullest extent the letter Of General Scott
accepting the nomination rendered him by the
National Convention. The worthy Colonel
speaks in rapturous terms of the letter of the
"patriot hero" and the beauty and excellence
of the style of the comment is worthy OF the ser-
ling Whig orthodoxy of the letter itself.
Should the sentiments of Col. S. meet the eye
Of Messrs. Toombs and Stephens, we can imagine
their feelings, but would be far from envying them
We will not keep our readers longer from the ex-
tract. Here it is:
"THE LETTERS OF ACcEPTANCE-We haze Pc
rused Gen. SCOTS letter aDih HoeIy satisfaction. In
il the old hero takes BROAD NOBLE, AND Ma
TIONAL GROUNDS-sanctyfed By the most exalted
patriotism, and oorthy the mind and heart of one
whose services TO his country far surpass, IN mum
Der, value, and usefulness, those Of any compeer, az
the sun Of midday exceeds in brahancy the pale,
orbs of night. THE GLORIOUS OLD SOLDIER
SAYS AS MUCH AS ANY SOUTHERN MAN
COULD DESIRE HIM TO SAY; he is as ezphci'
as as possible to be, and comes up TO the support Q,
The Southern platform as emphatically as could b.
Dished a nobler platform pas
neuer framed for the guidance Of any man, and mos'
promptly and patrioticaly has Winfield Scott placed
himself upon it,
"That Winfield Scott DN stand up TO the pledge
according to its full letter and SPIRIT there is no sor
of doubt. THE MAN WOULD BE DEEMEI
DEMENTED WHO WOULD CHARGE THE
VICTOR OF NIAGARA WITH COWARDICE
YET SUCH AN ALLEGATION WOULD BE
NO MORE GROSS AND NAUSEATING THAN
ONE IMTIMATING WILFUL DECEPTION OR
DESIGN TO FORFEIT HIS PLIGHTED WORD
+" The letter from William H. Graham is briet, bu,

might haze been expected from so true a Wing, so
able and patriotic a gentleman, and so jealous and

Correspondence of the Daily American Telegraph
NAVY YARD, Washington, July IL.

NAVY YARD, Washington, July IL.
SIR: For your promptness in publishing my
other communications, you have the gratitude OF
an humble soldier.
In writing those letters, did not intend that
any part of my statement should have been to
Gen. W. Scott's political opponents "gall mixed
with wormwood;" but such | find to be the case.
| hear it said that the writer is no other than
yourself, and that you have fabricated them to
serve purpose for the Whig party. If there is
any merit in those letters, it belongs to history
the world, and Gen. Scott and, as such, should
the curious call upon you for the name and ad-
dress of the writer, you can give it to them.
Personally Gen. Scott does not know me, and,
in all human probability, never will l was, from
the first day he landed in Tampico until he was
brought home from the city of Mexico, very close
observer of his manner and actions toward all
under his command. had frequent opportuni-
ties Of seeing him receive his visiters, from q
Major General down to private soldier, and can
truly say that to the private he was in every re-
spect as much Of the gentleman as to his next in
command.
/
in Tampico he was by invitation to dine with
Major Gen. Patterson. And here have as true
and a better story than that about the sugar
candy His orderly was called, and dollar
given him to go into the city and purchase
shaving brush. 1t was bought, and the orderly
gave the brush, with the change, into the hands
of Gen. Scott. The General expressed himself
well pleased, and, returning the change TO the
orderly, he remarked: "As the troops have not
lately been paid of, you can perhaps find use for
this" The amount was not large, to be sure
but the manner and tone of voice in which it was
given made the recipient feel grateful and proud.
He and the writer of this went forthwith to the
Fonda" in the plaza Of Tampico, and there,
in bottle of claret, drank long life and happi.
ness to Gen. Winfield Scott!
All that write Of Gen. Scott is truth and il
those who read it do not like it, can at some
future time supply them with m ore of the same
tenor. | am yours, truly, P. L, ].
