Gen, Scott,

The following manly article we clip from
the New York DWchman. In placing il
before our readers we would merely say
that the Editors of the Dmchman are radi-
cal, uncompromising Democrats.
DISGRACEFUL.-The attacks made by the
political Press Of the country on Generals
Scott and Pierce. Were they foot-pads,
they could not be more shamefully abused
Some writers think that the only way to be
politician is to turn BLACKBOARD, and that
he is the most useful Editor who Is least fiji
to associate with gentleman. A few days
SINCE, "The Pennsylvania" published a
statement showing how Gen. Scott was
court-martlaled 'tfor using insulting Ian
guage to his superiors, embezzling funds
belonging to poor soldiers, and how he chal-
lenged sick men to meet him in mortal
combat, and lodged his adversary's ball
after having the first fire.
Such statements disgrace the American
Press, and should entitle the writer to the
privileges of the horsepond. We were with
Ten. Scott from the Commandment of Vera
Cruz to the conquest of the City of Mexico,
and we know that a Drawer or kinder heart
ed man never drew sword or spared an
enemy.
AS a Democrat, we shall vote for Gen.
Pierce as President. We do this, not be-
cause we consider Gen. Pierce more pat
riotic man than Winfield Scott but simply
because we have greater admiration for his
political platform. The man never lived
whose love of country excels that 'Fotf old
Cherubusco.
The writer who would charge Winfield
Scott with cowardice, and embezzlement,
should go step farther and hold up Wash
lngton as traitor, or Franklin for an idiot.
Such attacks as those made by the Penn
SyfrGnian will only result IN injury t. the
Democratic party. If that paper is really
IN favor of Gen. Pierce, the fewer filings 1t
contains at Gen. SCOTS courage and man
Illness, the better. In the history which
will be written fifty years hence. the name
OF Wnfild Scott will occupy position sec
ond to none in our annals.

Gen. Pierce,s LETTER.

The Washington Republic of yesterday
IN commenting upon the letter of Gen
Pierce to Mr., De Leon, denies its ,copclu.
siveness, and says:
Were Gen. Pierce arraigned upon SIN.
gle issue, and we had his explicit and un-
qualified contradiction, supported by lone
line OF consistent antecedents. TO counter.
balance the declarations of an opponent. Oh
OF two opponents, the General would be
entitled to an honorable acquittal. The
Prescriptions would be all in his favor
But this does not happen to be the nature
OF the case. He is charged with the utter
ance OF sentiments obnoxious to the South
at specified place in the present year
the accusation rests upon reports of the
speech prepared by known individuals, and
circulated without contradiction for many
months; it is shown to be compatible with
zen Pierce's political exigencies at the pc
NOD; and 1t is proved, to be imperfect har-
mony with his public antecedents in
New Hampshire, and with all the antece-
dents OF his party IN that State during a
long series OF years. We can conceive OF
no stronger case and it is folly TO mag
Inc that such case can be overturned by
themere disavowal of the party most con-
cerned.
II may not be out of place to say, in this
connexion, that we understand letter has
been recently received by gentleman Of
this city, from the Rev. Mr.. Foss, IN which
he declares his ability abundantly to sub
stantiate the entire accuracy of his report
OF General Perce's New Boston Speech
Richmond Times.

Gen. Scott and the Fugitive slave
Law.

| IA. Upton, Esq, delegate from Lou
lsiana to the Baltimore Wing Convention,
has addressed letter to the N. y. Bee, IN
which, after stating that he and other mem
bers of the Louisiana delegation had resolv-
ed to withdraw from the Convention, if
Gen. Scott refused to place himself proper
ly before the people Of the South, or if the
Convention refused TO endorse distinctly
the fnality of the slave law, Mr.. Upton
gives the following important and conclu-
sive conversation with Gen. Scott:
"But anxious to knov Gen. SCOTS real
sentiments upon the Compromise, most par
ticularly on the Fugitive Slave law l ad-
dressed TO him note upon the subject on
the 7th of June last, and on the same day,
at his own request, had personal inter-
view with him. The interview was long
one. Gen. Scott most uaresercedty gaoe TO
me his visps upon all the leading topics o.
The dag, said that he had nothing to conceal
most particularly upon the Compromise acts,
including The Fugitipe Slape la,c-and his
position was then, as now, a position that
must be satisfactory to every Southern man
Speaking of the Fugitive Slave law, Gen.
Scott used this language:
"LfI epsr, as Gen. Scott, al The head Of
The armies of The Uniied States, as plain Nh
Scott, deprived Of my commission or as
President Scott, if il should please the peo-
pie to elevate me to that high position, if 1
eper do anything calculated TO impair The eff
cacy of the Fugitiue Slave lac, or haOing a
tendency iooard lis repeal, then tcrife anfa-
nous Be fore mig name, write Infamous a Ter my
name, and kick me into The gutter.'
The language was SO emphatic, so strong,
and made such an impression upon me,
that quote, think, Gen. SCOTS very
words.
But, General Scott said, you may ask,
why not ,crits this : will anticipate the
question, and answer it before it is put
and as he said this, he fixed his eagle eye
full upon me, and with proud and manly
tone said, "Sir, tciH make no bid for tie
Presidential nomination. General S. adj
ded that he expressed the same sentiments
daily in conversation; that his sentiments
were well known to all ,Oho ,cished to knot,
ihcm; that he expressed them publicly
and that l was at perfect liberty to use his
declaration to me as saw fit
When Gen. Pierce sees fit to express
himself upon the Fugitive Slave Law il
the strong and emphatic terms which
Gen. Scott has employed, ii will be time
enough for his supporters to claim HIM as ;
peculiar friend OF Southern Institutions

Growing DesDcrnte.

The best evidence Of the fading hopes of
the Democracy is to be found in the des-
peration evinCed in regard to Gen. Scott.
Men who found it Convenient to stay at
home during the perils of war are foremost
in assailing Gen. Scott. They can find
nothing to deiract from his military fame,
and now they are attempting to assail his
honesty.
What else could have suggested a late
resolution of inquiry offered in the Senate
of the United States, and that, too, by the
successor of Henry Clay?
On the 18th instant, Mr.. Meriwether CT
Kentucky, offered resolution requiring
the President of the United States to re-
port the amount of public money received
by Gen. Scott and the amount received by
Gen. Pierce, ''from the tune of their first
entrance into the public service up 10 the
present date %
Now, what can be more superlatively IL
diculous than this? Is there no deception
upon the very face Of it?
Gen. Scott has been in the public SER
vice, large portion of the time for his
country, for forty gears, whilst Gen. Pierce
served as member of Congress about s'1
years, and as General about sir months !!
And yet the sapient Mr.. Merlwether is 60
ing to show the supplemented Democracy
that Gen. Scott has received vastly lar
ger amount than Gen. Pierce has received
As foriyis to sir, SO may the proportion
be-and this is to be an argument for
the enlightened Democracy ! Well, let the
result be reported-and let the substantial
services rendered by each of the candi-
dates be shown at the same time.
Gen. Scott has at all times been the SOL
diers' friend. lie has fought with them,
and suffered with them, and has always Ia
ken an interest in seeing them rewarded.
Gen. Pierce has sienalized his course by
voting against the relief for Gen. Harri-
sons widow, and against the pensions to
the widows of old soldiers There's the
difference in nutshell,-Rich. Rep.
