Scott and the Quakers.

Two gentlemen of the Society Of Friend,
wrote to Mr.. FILLMORE, while in Congress, tC
use his influence to procure the discharge o
one JAS. THOMPSON from the Army. These
letters we're referred to the Commander il
Chief-Gen. SCoTT-who replied in the fol
lowing strain:
Ny Dear Sir: have received the two
letters (one from Rev. Mr.. Angler, and the
other signed by Mr.. Van Wyck) asking; on
several Alounds, the discharge of James
Thompson, private in the SECOND regi-
mcnt of artillery. 1st. He has, since his en-
listmcnt, reformed his habits. This is an
in favor Of his serving out his time
lest he should relapse, if discharged, before
contiormed in his rcformation-miltary dis
cipline highly favors reformation. Cd He
has become pious. This makes him at once
Il better soldier and better man, and fortu-
nately we are not without many piouS officers
and men in urranks but Sd. 1t is aIledgcd
that he has imbibed conscientious scruples
against performing military duty. If the
man be mad, he can be discharged on sur
gems certificate to that ehccl--but if he has
only turned coward, we have ample means
of furnishing him if he should when ordered,
refuse to fight. Ireturn the letters you en-
close, and remain, my dear sir,
With great esteem. yours truly,
WINFIELD SCOTT.

Scott and Taylor Contrasted.

The Portland (Maine) Argus, in refer
renee to the silly statement Of the wings that
there was as much trouble about Taylor S
nomination as Scott says:
Taylor had all the wings of the South.
Scott has hardly enough Of them to make IA
corporal's guard.
Taylor professed to be no-party man,
and 50 took good many easy minded dem
Iocrats. Scott is an out and out whig, and
cannot therefore expect to go beyond strict
party vote.
"Tayo was in the hands ofmen in whom
both North and South, of the whjg party, had
confidence. Scott is under the control of
Seward and Greeley, and others of the milk
and molasses hue, on whom nobody has the
slightest faith.
Taylor had the advantage ofa wide spread
disatfection in the democratic ranks at the
North. Scott has to meet those ranks reuni-
ted.
Taylor was all things to all men, Scott
was nothing to nobody
In sh2rt, Taylor whipped by the force of
union and humbug. Scott will be whipped
by the force of union in spite of humbug.'

ludlow did try, and he studied and he
improved much, bnt he was unable to recall
the time he had wasted. Hehad now family
upon his care; and as he,hat. to depend al
togcter upon his hands for support, he could
not work much with his mind.
Charles Bracket saw the building he had
planned entirely finished, Snd he received
the highest enconiums of praise from the
chief officers of the State. Business flowed
in upon him, and ere many years BRACKET
the architect, was known throughout the
Union. When he led Mary Waters to the
hymenial altar he did own one of the pretti-
est houses in his native town, nor did 'poor
Mary have to wait long either.
There is a deep moral in the foregoipa for
our young mechanical readers, and we have
no doubt they have, ere this discovered it.

A subscriber writing to the Ohio States

Ohio, says:

in the Wing ranks since the Taylor election
are truly worthy of notice. At that time we
only numbered some four or five Democrat.

SEVERE DRoUGHT IN OHo.--We learn
from the Dayton Gazette that the Miami
valley is suffering sadly from the absence OF
rain. The pastures in many places is burnt
up: and many of the streams are failing.
| The corn between Dayton and Cincinnati
appears to be beyond the beniiit of rain; the
Iunder-eayes are dead, and the top leaves
are rolled up. AT best othere cannot be
much more than half a crop Of this staple
in the Miami valley. The stock OF old
corn on hand will be likely to advance in
price, as the prospects ofthc new crop be-
comes apparent. ..

WAsuINGToS, August II.
There is IL growing dissatisfaction at the
indeIinate position assumed by England, in
regard to the fishing matters. Congress
desires to know whether the headland con
struction of the treaty is to be enforced OF
abandoned. There is no assurance of any
kind that England does not intend or may
not at any moment, be induced to carry

Unless this point is definitely settled before
the end ofncXt week, resolution will be
introduced into Congress, and undoubtedly
passed, imposing duty of fifty per cent

Characteristic Of the Man.
Hon. NJ. FILLMORE.

Mr.. e. DECAMP, now a highly respectable
merchant of Bayyill, Pike county, Illinois,
has related an incident in his own history,
which goes a long way toward developing
the genuine character of he present Wing
candidate for the Presidency. The particu

aId .....
"Some years ago, about the time of the
close OF the Black Hawk war, Gen Scott
was descending the Mississippi in barge,
with some soldiers. He stopped at CIarks-
vile in Missouri, and their hired Mr.. Z. De-
Camp for fifteen dollars, to pilot the barge to
St. Louis. The Company left CIarksyille in
the evening, laid by part of the night and
were until late next morning reaching Alton
During the day Mr. DcCamp was suffered
to 90 without mouthful to eat, though Gen
Scott himself Jared sumptuous, and upon ar-
irving at Alton ordered supper. When pre-
pared, the landlord notified the respective
parties that the table was in readiness. Gen
Scott took his seat, and although he must
have been aware that Mr.. DeCamp had
nothing to eat during the day, yet when he
went TO sit down, the General oIqlcycd lin
fl ON tile tobie, md directed Tie ludIo,1 to
prepare him something to eat n tile cornc,' of
tAe room By himself. Mr.. DeCamp, who
was an old pioneer, and a high spirited and
honorable man, properly spurned to be treat
ed as degraded being, and left the house.
Governor Reynolds, the "Old Ranger" " who
was with Gen Scott, was highly indignant
at this treatment of Mr.. DeCamp."
