Editor Nsr Orleans Bee:
My dear sir: The democratic press south is
much occupied with lis endeavors 10 lend The
people of the slave States TO believe tina, Gen.
Scott is a fres soilsr. and fapo.er of the policy
of the Van Burens, Giddingses and Ran,ouls Of
the north in relation to the institution Of slavery,
and this too, directly in the face Of as positive
evidence 10 the contrary. as nee6 possibly be
TIE accumulated mass of testimony already ex-
isling on this subject.
When in Washington city. just previous to
the sitting ofshe Baltimore Conven,ion-amons
the thousand political rumors which have heard,
was the rumor that Con. Scott was favorable to
the Free Soil party OF the North.
This was stated ut southern caucus Of dele
gates, then temporarily, like myself, in Wash
ington.
To the rumor as stated. | replied that Gen.
Scotl's positi IN must Of course be distinctly de-
| fined. Tha, the Convention would Of course
ADOPT platform OF principles shnt would speedi-
ly cover the slavery question, and that previous
TO nomination. But ,haL ii Gen. Scott refused
to place himself properly before the people OF
the South. or ifihe Convention refused TO adopt a
platform Of principles, and TO endorse mos, dis
inc,Iy the finulity of the Fugitive Slave Law,
then |. for one, even though stood alone, as a
southern man and declare that portion of Loui-
siana that had the honor t., represent. unbound
by the future action OF the Convention.
Nor was alone in this assumed position
believe that the Louisiana delegation would have
been unanimous, nor do believe that southern
delegate would have remained within the Con-
veniion, had it refused to adopt Duncan's reso-
luli,ns, or to have adopted the platform reported
by the Resolution Committee.
But anxious t. know Gen. s :o,i's real sent
ments upon the compromise most particularly
upon the Fugitive Save Law, addressed TO him
a note upon the subject on the 7th Of June last
alO on lnS ShlsS ufy nG HIS o"u toqucoss n"9 q
personal interview with him." The interview
was long one. Gen. Scott mos, unreservedly
gave to me his views upon all the leading topics
of the day. and sail had he nothing t, conceal
most particularly upon the Compromise acts, in
cluding the Fugitive Slave Law-and his posi-
ton was then, as now, a position that must be
satisfactory to every southern man; speaking o.
the Fugi'ive Slave Law, Gen. Scott used lhi,
language.
slf ever, as Gen. Scott, at the head Of tht
armies of the United States, as plain Mr.. Set
deprived of my commission. or as Pre- siden
Scott, if it should please the people TO elevat
me to that high station. il ever do anything
calculated 10 impair the efficiency OF theFueiiv'
, Slave Law, or having tendency towards III
repeal, then write infamous before my name
write Infamous after my name and kick me int
