Is Wfnneld Scott Patriot or n TRAITOR
We hope there may arise some proofs to render
the minds of his countrymen clear on this point.
As the last Democratic administration had him
brought home prisoner from country he had
conquered, and which had in vain implored him
to accept magnificent fortune, and become its
President, Of course he may be suspected Of any
act of turpitude forbidden in the decalogue. The
Bardstown (Ky.) Herald thus speaks of him:
General Scott was born and lived to manhood
in lower Virginia, and his whole life since has
been calculated to expand his sympathies and
make them just as broad as the republic in whose
service he has performed SO many glorious
achievements. How can such man be hostile
to the rights and safety of any section, especially
of that with which he is most closely connected
and how can he be unfaithful to that Union with
which his own glories are identifed-in whose
service he has shed his blood-with whose re-
nown he has filed the world?"

The Hon. Humphrey Marshall.

The position occupied by this gentleman ex-
poses him to the involuntary and reluctant CEN
sures of many gentlemen who have heretofore
stood by his side. The Philadelphia North Ameri-
can says:
"The attempt of Mr.. Humphrey Marshall, and
his associates, to Dragon the Wing party into
whatever measures he ght see fit to propose
considering his antecedents and present position,
is regarded here, by men of all shades of opinion
as preposterous piece of impertinence. The
Wings in this section, without exception, acqu-
esce in the Compromise, and deprecate all further
agitation; but they recognise no right in disaf-
fected members of Congress to dictate terms to
them, and especially when such dictation is un-
dertaken in violation of every fitness of time and
place."
The Washington correspondent of the Cincin-
matt Gazette speaks of :" Mr.. Humphrey Mar
shall, of the Louisville district, whom Gen. Scott
declinedto recommend for Secretary Of War !" We
do not know that this intimation is correct and
if correct, we are unwilling to believe that the
fact would beget the motive suggested. But it
is a sad thing to quarrel with well-tr friends.

from the Cleveland Herald. the robbery of
nr McKie, a wool dealer, OF $40, 900 taken
from between the mattresses of his bed
and mentioned also that he had offered u
reward of 5000 for Its recovery. From
an article in the Albany Register seems
that Mr.. McKie is peculiarly unfortunate
when he is the possession of large sums Of
money. The Teglster says:

The very large vote polled in this city or
Tuesday, proves one Of two things, eth r that
New Albany is growing with unparalleled
rapidity, or that a great many illegal votes
have been po!led. For example, but one
year ago the whole vote of the county was
2IS2-now the vote of the city alone IS
2l96, being ii votes more than were polled
in the whole county of Floyd one year ago.
Some of the out townships, we believe, show
about the same ratio of increase. In the
township of Lafayette, for example, we are
told the democratic majority is larger than
the whole taxable polls of the township. We
have not examined the Assessors book, but
have no doubt the statement is true.

DAILY JOURNAL.

E7A correspondent writes, that the Office
entered log-school-house, where a debating
society were holding forth upon the question::
'If man saw his wife and his mother in the
wcter drowning, which ought he to help out
the frst!" The question was considered with
animation upon both sides for a while, when
"backwardness began to manifest Itself"
The president desired debltors, ''il they had
anything to say, to continue on" After
pause, a peaked looking man in the back part
of the house got up and said, with consideIa-
ble difiidence and embarrassment: s. President
I think, If a man saw his mother and Wite IN
the water drowning, be oughtcr help his
IN Jther out first; because, you see, il his wi!c
did get drowned, he could get hnothcr one,
but he couldn't get another mother not easy
This settled the question, and the verdi,t
accordingly.
