A widows Tribute to Gen. scott.

To The Editor Of the Nep York Tribune:
SIR: Since see in some of the journals hos
tile to Gen. Scott an attempt to disparage his
personal qualities, especially his bearing toward
subordinates, beg leave to state through your
columns what 4 know on the subject:
That the victor on so many battle-feds is a
great warrior, no American can deny without in
curing contempt. That he has proved himself q
sagacious and successful pacificator, no man Of
common sense and common honesty will question.
But he is distinguished for traits still more rare
and ennobing-strict impartiality and magnanimi-
4 W: sterling qualities, which have seldom added
their nstre to guild the chair of state since
washington relnquished it, To prove his claim
to the first attribute, can say with truth that,
N the years have been familiar with army af-
falrs have never, in single instance, heard
him accused of favoring one officer at the ex-
pense of another. OF his maqnaninaitu / will
give an instance which will, think, command
the admiration of all who appreciate the extreme
senstiyeness of military men in all that concerns
rank and subordination.
My husband, when only lieutenant, COM
manded post for several years, which, from its
position near the line of British province, was
of some Importance. Of course it was compli-
mentary to him. n subaltern, that it was entrusted
to him Gen. Scott was then the commanding
officer Of the Eastern Division of the army, and
Us such issued an order which my husband de-
INJURED about obeying as he thought it incorrect.
He stated his objections to his commander, who,
being of different opinion, repeated the order
The lieutenant appealed to the War Department,
and the Secretary sustained him. What would
almost any other man have done with the ere
fractory subordinate" who thus dared to risk
losing, not only the post of trust he occupied but
even his commission itself, because he thought
himself right? Gen. Scott probably admired the
noble spirit, which fearlessly discharged (as he
himself has often done) his duty, regardless of
consequences. 1t takes man of honor to judge
of man of honor. l have often heard my hus-
band speak with deep feeling of the Cen
erals magnanimity in never resenting, even by a
cold look, the circumstances which have been
narrated. Better is he that ruleth his spirit
than he that taketh city" Gen. Scott has done
both, and can do both again, if necessary.
Some years after my husbands death, hearing
that | was in the same town with himself, he
called to see me- cas- mark of respect to my
husband" | had not before the pleasure of
personal acquaintance with the hero, but the
benevolent and dignifed courtesy evinced in that
interview made an enduring impression of the
saying that to err is human-to forgive, divine %

From the Boston Journal.l
Large Estates.

Nothing exhibits the folly and weakness of
human nature more conspicuously than morbid
desire for gain--a desire only increasing in in
tensity rs the points of acquisition fixed by the
accumulator at different periods, as the limit Of
his wishes, are successfully obtained How often
does the rich man determine to take his ease in
the enjoyment of what he possesses when his for
tune has reached certain sum. Vain hopel
The spirit of avarice is unsated in his bosom,
giving him no rest The increasing tide Of sue
cessful acquisition rolls along, bearing him upon
its bosom the boarded gold accumulates in his
Golfers: he exercises over the soil a wider and
| wider sway but his desires outrun his fortune.
| His heart grows more and more callous to the
calls of humanity the one idea absorbs his whole
being, and robs him of every other enjoyment.
And for what end To benefit his fellow-men
by an enlightened application of his wealth?
How seldom is tithe of this boarded treasure
expended to bless mankind If dormant con-
science, awakened nj the last, or desire for n
name among posterty, induces him to set apart
the avails of n life for any public object how
often does it happen that the whole n large
portion of the property is lost in illjudged invest
ments by dishonest trustees, or in litigation with
disappointed heirs at-law Does he wish to build
up n name and family on the strength Of the
golden accumulation? That very means above
nll others will hasten the downfall of any family,
and bring them, with increased velocity, to the
bottom of fortunes wheel.
The abolition Of entailment, and the unfetter-
ing of estates, property to pass from family
to family, and from hand to hand, dissipating its
unnatural accumulations, like the shifting sands.
Fortunate it is for the American people that it is
so for he who would pride himself upon his
wealth is compelled to feel the instability of his
position The aristocracy of wealth is ephemeral
ns the morning mist. The shopkeeper or the
artisan of the present generation is the progeni-
tor of the millionaire Of the next if the step from
respectability to arstocracy is not even shorter.
The aristocracy of to-day often furnishes to the
next generation its bar room loungers and its
most dsspated and useless citizens. The thought
ful study of human nature and human vicissitudes
inculcates humility, charity, and mutual sympa-
thy and respect.
Daily American telegraph., 1852-07-23

There is no surer standard than this of trying
men and parties. And, tried by this standard,
how miserably does Democratic practice accord
with Democratic profession Clay, Harrison,
Taylor Summers, and now Scott, all Virginians,
and all denounced as Abolitionists OF under Abo-
litionist influence, whilst it was held to be rank
blasphemy to retort this accusation upon any of
the Northern men with Southern feelings"
whom the Democrats have recommended to the
suffrages of the people! But what have been the
deeds, the results, the fruits, which the two par
ties have brought forth? Look at Van Burenism,
and the success OF the Wilmot provlso under
Democratic administrations, and the overthrow
of the Wilmot proviso, the vndication OF South
ern rights. and the restoration of national peace
and harmony under Whig administration, whose
leader the Democratic press were everywhere in
the last Presidential campaign branding as an
Abolitionist If the Southern people are wise,
they will place confidence for the future in those
who are true in action rather than those who arc
loud in profession. In Scott and Graham they
have two Southern men, born and raised among
themselves all whose interests, education associa
tons, and sympathies are with themselves OF
General Pierce they know but little. He belongs,
it is true, to the old Hunker Democracy OF the
North, and, until the recent developments by the
Freesoil Democratic papers of New Hampshire,
there was no reason to believe that he was not as
sound theoretically upon the subject of slavery
as Gen. Scott But for our own part, we feel
satisfied that. after those Developments, the
Whips of the South can no longer hesitate In
their perference of Gen. Scott to Gen. Pierce.
Admitting that the statements of the New Boston
sneccb came from the Freesoil faction, they
opn,o ot time when it was not their interest to
rnaLe them, and when they could not have been
designed for effect in the South, because Gen.
pierce was not candidate for Southern sufrages,
nor was there any reason to believe that he ever
would be-Riehmond Republican.
