"This light has been more criticized than any

SIGN OF THE TIMEs.-Thcre was probably
gathering Of three thousand persons at the circus
board the Floating Palace on Thursday night
Onc Of the performers, in the course Of the enter
tainment, sang a song in which he introduced the
name Of General Pierce, the Democratic nominee
for the Presidency, and the name called forth
little, very little, applause. few moments after
wards the came performer mentioned the name OF
Scott, whereupon the enthusiastic shouts resounded
over the river, and came back in echoes from the
Indiana shore. s .'
Perhaps the warriors OF the Times and the. civil
lians Of the Democrat can interpret this sign for
the benefit of their admirers. We know they
have been in the habit of disparagng votes in the
cabins OF ordinary steamboats,, but possibly they
may have some litto respect for the thunder tones
OF population Of three thousand in the saloon Of
Floating Palace.

From the Albany (N. W Register.
NIr. SDencer,s Albany Speech.

"We are not in the habit Of publishing speeches"
says the Binghampton Republican, "but we must
make the able and eloquent speech of Hon. John
c. Spencer, in favor of General Scott, an excep.
ton. It is the best document we have yet seen,
and we doubt whether the campaign will produce
better one Mr.. Spencer is one of ablest men
in the country, and what he does is always well
done. We recommend all TO read it,
There has been nothing said written during
the present campaign in reference to General Scott
and his fitness for the high Office for which he has
been nominated, and to which we believe he will
certainly be elected, that has told go well in the
Whig ranks the speech of Mr.. Spencer, above
alluded to. The testimony borne to it's character
by the champion Republican is that ofscores of
Wing papers, in this State and out of it, and is
simply just. That speech develops and fully es-
tablishes General SCOTS fitness for the Presi-
dency in point of ciuic qualities and experience.
As a great military leader he is known to the
whole world, and his friends need not be told Of
the nature, character, extent of his exploits in
the field; but his character as q civilian and his
talents a statesman were comparatively lost
sight of in the moro attractive brillinncy Of his
reputation as a military hero, full head and
shoulders above all others OF his countryDen now
living, and it timely and well, at this stage Of
the canvass, to bring out these qualities IN bold
relief. This Mr.. Spencer has done, with the con.
cisene and ability which mark all his efforts; and
we think the Wing will be still more effect
ualy subservcd if his speech should be printed in
a chenp and convenient form, and distributed
broadcast over the country.
