Correspondence OF the Evening PosLI


The melo dramatic piece, with ableaux, the reception
OF General Scott, lin which the part OF General Scott is
performed by that gentleman himself has Just been
pated before Albany audience. Oar citizens wonder
that II should have brought down the house" so
overwhelmingly IL did on It's previous renderings in
Ohio Pennsy vania, and Indiana II appeared to be a
tame affair.
Two halves OF the military companies. and several

dressed Fillmore and 10 Webster for the praises OF
members ol cabinets, who long again FOR place are like
the sonnets OF young poetasters to their msesses
good for The love as the old, with but slight change
in The address.
General Scott replied He said he knew no party, and,
indeed, il would be Just now difficult for any one 10 find
any considerable party OF The knowledge OF which he
could boast He alluded 10 his early days in Albany,
when he had been urged and stimulated by its leading

General Scos speech reminds me OF The Chinese maps
OF the world where the whole circle OF the space is
cuped by the Celestial Empire, and The rest OF the earth
il slowed away 10 the corners.
