Gen. Scott compelled the army 10 kneel to
Catholic rocessons.-Locoioco newspapers.

and this seems to be the fate of sundry of the
locofoco organs. To prejudice Catholics against
Gen. Scott, they swear that he is Native A
merican," aud to prejudice the Natives and Prot
estants, they also swear that he is a Catholic -
It would be safe, probably, to let such fellows
eat each other up, after the manner of the XII
kenny cats but we prefer to let our readers have
the whole truth.
Gen ScoTT is himself a member of the Epis-
oopal church. Two of his daughters we're Cath
olics, one Of them having died in the nunnery at
Georgetown. The Natyism" of Scott consist

common with many other good men, Wings and
Democrats he was alarmed at the frauds which
were Perpeirated by corrupt Americans upon en-
igrants freshly arrived and unapprized of the
character Of our institutions and laws. Years
before that, ever indeed, the Gen. was and now is,

for protecting them against the bloody Brit
