SCOTT AND sEWARD-READi

We have before us the New York Times, Wing
paper, which contains accounts of General SCOTS
speeches at Rochester, Auburn, Syracuse, &c. Au-
burn, it is well known, is the place where the infa-
nous Seward resides; and the Southern people
have not forgotten that some twelve months since,
he invited to his house and entertained a number
of whites and negroes, sonie of them in Bloomer
dress, who had been engaged in resisting the fugi-
tive-slaVe law, the most important measure in the
Compromise" Well, Gen. Scott arrived at Au-
burn on the 18th, where lie made a characteristic
speech. He banded the word " lie " in the course
of his remarks, and said other things as weak as
they were ludicrous. We quote as follows from
the New York Times
"Gov. Seward, having been loudly called for, APP
peared on the balcony, and after being greeted with
cheers, said ..
My Neigh6ors and Friends. This is not time nor
an occasion for me to speak to you. voice-why
not q Because it is unnecessary. will make
single reflection. Scarcely four months ago We
gathered at the depot to pay the tribute of and
affection to the mortal remains of the greatest of Amer
lean statesmen then on their way to their final rest
ing-place at Ashland. To-day, we receive among
ourselves in full life STATURE and proportions, and
health cheers the greatest of American heroes since
the Revolutionary age: [Cheers;;] So one passeh.
and another comes. Let all good men and patriots
take courage. then, and be assured that if we, the
American people, preserve vrtue the race of pub
lie benefactors cannot become extinct.
The General then took the carriage and called at
the reaidences of Gov. Seward and Hon. Christopher
Morgan, after which he escorted back to the
Exchange Hotel, where dinner was waiting. Gov.
Seward presided at the table, On his right General
Scott was seated, and on his left, Hon. B. F. Hall,
our worthy Mayor. After the company had partaken
of the rich repast prepared by mine host. Gen. Wood
of the Exchange, the cloth was removed, and Gov.
Seward gave the following toast:
WInfeLd Scott-The defender and extender of his
country.
The sentiment was received with loud applause,
and Gen. Scott offered the following:
.4.burn-Late lovely village. and now not de-
serted village but poPulous and fourishng City,"
What will the Southern people say to that {?
Seward, we were told some weeks since, had de-
parted for an European tour; but behold! here he
is yet in the fullness of his infamous stature and
proportions" aUaited by Gen. Scott and presi-
ding at a dinner giUen an honor Of Gen. Scott.
Comment is unnecessary. 1t is natural that Gen.
Scott should act thus towards the man who pro-
cured his nomination over the heads of Webster
aHd Fillmore and if Scott should be elected, he
will only change places at the table with Seward,
for thong Scott may preside, Seward will rule.
