NrGen. Scott passed here on his way
to Baltimore on Thursday. A crowd
of citizens Of the town and county Were
at the depot to see him. The cars stop.
ped but minute, and he had only time
TO step out on the platform Of the car
and express his qualification at seeing so
many of his Elkton friends.
THE WIG MEETING OF TUESDAY,
The Wing meeting held here on last
Tuesday was much larger and more en-
thusiastic than we anticipated. There
were many present from every part Of
the county, who went away deeply inn
pressed with the importance Of the con-
test now waging upon the interests of
the country, and OF the necessity Of ac-
tivitv and diligence to secure the cleo
ton of Gen. Saott.
Speeches were made by Henry "
Archer Esq, of Hartford, Geo. B. Mill:-
gan ESQ, of Baltimore. and Hon. Alex
andpr Evans: all Of them able and effect
i've. The ridiculous stories, put ahoat
by locotocos and r-creant wings, that
Gen. Scott is TO be suspected on the
Comprnms' were given to the winds,
and the Iocotoco candidate and platform
were shown TO be- unSound OF this sub
ipc!. The asperSions cast upon the
character of Gen Scott, at the late 10.
cofoco meeting were taken up and tri
umphantlv refuted, and the authors ant
reporters of them were boldly denoun
c'd for their system of lying, and tolf
from the stand that they "lied in thei
throats.'
The generalship and craftsmanship o
Gen. Pierce were shown to be tictions
and the ability of Scott as soldier, ne
eoclaior, statesman, was triumphant,
sustained.
Mr.. Evans, who was present in Wash
ington during the discussion of tn
Compromise measures, testified to tn
interest Gen. Scott took in the matter
he having advocated their passage, i
