We learn from the New York Tribune that on
Tuesday afternoon General Scott arrived at New
York, and proceeded to Hoboken, where he spent
the night at the residence of his friend Hon.
Jas. G. King, at Highwood, North Hoboken; and
early on Wednesday morning proceeded up the
Hudson river. His health appears to be good,
and he was in good spirits. His trip is hurried,

EdE- Under the local head of this paper, q few
days ago, was published brief paragraph in re-
lation to controversy had before Justice Of
the Peace between Francis Dodge, esq, and the
Cheyalier Spencer. Regarding the affair as Of
minor Importance, and regretting that it had
found its way into public notice, we determined
to treat it altogether as Jagatelle, and to make
but faint allusion to it. We learn, however, that
in doing so we have unconsciously wounded the
feelings of some of the friends of Mr.. Dodge.
We regret this. There is no gentleman for whom
we entertain higher degree Of respect, as there
is none who, in our opinion, is farther removed
from the possibility of performing an unworthy
or ungentlemanly act.
Bfas" The want of House of Correction, or
place where small children may be sent, instead
of to the Jail, is felt more and more sensibly
every day, Complaints are frequently made to
the officers against small boys, who go about pill
fering from stores and dwellings whatever they
are able to carry off, and whose tender age, when
they are arrested, saves them from being sent to
jail to be placed under the tuition of older and
more daring thieves. The evil is growing one,
for tho sin is contagious, and one bad child may
ruin Dozen Give us place where they may
be kept to themselves, and taught to be moral
and useful.

The letter of Gov. Graham, declining the NOM
nation of Vice President on the Webster ticket
in North Carolina, the Richmond Republican re-
marks, is worthy of the man, and Of the great
Wing cause, Of which he is q bright and shining
ornament. His testimony in relation to General
Scotts position on the Compromise question, is
honorable to himself and to that illustrous hero,
and will satisfy all candid Southern Wings,
who have not prematurely and irretrieyably
committed themselves to ON attitude of hostility
to Gen. Scott, that there is no sounder man on
the Compromise in the whole Union than the
Wing candidate for the Presidency. Gov. Ora
ham, the acknowledged friend from first to last
of the measures of adjustment, declares that
Gen. Scott was "equally jealous and more inhu-
entiap' than himself in supporting this " national
pacfcation in it's hour of trial.
