The Awakening.

we cannot neiP copying the following afilcle from the New York Tribune, the sditof of which has as good neans ot in. toEn aiian as any man in this country, and Ialthough generally sanguine in his exrec- tations, is always honest in the expression of his opinions; aa
 Dietrich KGickerbockey tells story of
 Dutchmah who undertook to jump wide dhcil, aud in order to do so. went back so 1 far aud run 80 turiOuslY that when he reached the b.ink he was completely blown, l and enher stuck fast or lumbied in-at all events he failed to get over. ..Where's yonr enthusiasm for Gen. Scott ? has been the cry of his antagonists since his nomi. nation. IL was in vain that we answered |, "It is in the hearts of the people. and will be manifested at the proper time. Because thousands did not neglect their business to wander off hundreds of miles a! every call # 6 Scott m.eting. they faltered them~ selves that the people felt no enthusiasm tor Scott. and would not be called forth to 'lecl him. And the leaders did their best 5y dragging, bullying. and offering to violate lhe laws by betting, to make the Whigs taiat and give up the contest
 At lsngh they perceive lheis mistake. The qniet'.sss lucy ,listOok for apathy was the dictate Ot security--of confidence. =. People saw no use in giving i've mJDths to Il contest for which six weeks would suffice. They gave the summer to their farnas or their business. knowing that for so easy job as the election of Gen. Scott, the Fall would be ample time. And now. having ll'eir work in shape to enjoy little respite, they are taking hold of the Presidential canvass. Thsre aye no more complaints oS aPathy-no more satanic grins oyer the paucity Of Whig Neelings. From Maine to Iowa, ffom Buffalo to New Orieons, the rally for Scott is spontaneous and universal. The change within fortnight can hardly be realized except by those whO are itl the constant receipt of advices from all parts of the country. And everywhere, us the Scott ranks are formed, our frieuds are .as,onished at their strength.
 Hs,e is Connecticut at our elbow, which the Pierce men have hoped to carry. and where ,liey will still make an earnest f fght. but in which they will be beaten if we are GaOs grossly deceived, las they have not heeR since l03O.
