There has not been in modern times another
instance of injustice, persecution and oppression
so decided and malignant as has been exhibited by
a portion of the Democratic party of the United
States toward General Scott in the beginning Of
the Mexican war, jealousy Of his already acquired
fame induced the administration to entrust the
command of the American army to compare
lively obscure soldier. The successes of that
soldier, and the growing admiration of the people
for his indomitable prowess, gave new direction
to the fears and envy Of the administration, and
and it became necessary to eclipse his fame. This,
it was thought, could be safely done by SO
placing the two generals in juxtaposition that a
competition with each other would be forced upon
them. General Taylor, breathing scarce n muir
muir, reposed rs he could well afford to do,
upon the laures he had won; while General
Scott went on from step to step TO the achieve
ment of the most glorious triumphs that have
been consummated during the present century.
Such successes were more than could be tolerated
by the administration of the United States and
n fruitless attempt was made,to create a lieu
tonant-general, in the person of Mr.. Benton, who
was to carry the sword in one hand and a protfer
of negotiation in the other. Failing in this, the
effort was made to wrest the newly-gained
laurels from the brow Of Scott, and to bestow
them upon a man who had
