The ssThunderer,D Again.

The London Times, through il.
New York correspondent, continues
its fire on General Scott and hi:
friends. The following is from hi:
letter in The Times OF the 18th,
received BY the Asia last week:
"The great MASS Meeting al
Lundy's Lane was failure in num-
bers, IN the characters Of the public
men who attended it, in the enthusi-
asm which it was supposed il must
awaken, and the extent Of its results.
The British provincial journals very
properly INDUCED in some remarks
on the fudelicacy il not the impro-
priefy, Of the Americans crossing
the frontier 10 celebrate an American
0ictOry oithout permission from the
local authorities, and we have been
reminded that il was hardly the
scene for the celebration Of a victory
by General Scott, since only short
time after the battle OF Lundy's
Lane, and not far from the same
ground, 'this Napoleon Of America
was himself taken prisoner, and
under circumstances ,0hich, in Eu-
rope, Dould haze shorn him of most
of has LaureLS. The fact is no longer
denied in any quarter that The Wings
find il very hard indeed to get up
much of furore about their military
They had already tried
it twice before, and with so honest,
modest, and patriotic a man as Gen.
Taylor, had won the election; and
now, with dismemberment and disaG-
lection in their party, with princi-
pies that are odious TO the most en-
ightened portion Of the community;
which are proposed for adoption by /
he people, and a candidate who, it
S universally conceded has been
dominated only because Of the ex-
,itement it was supposed his name
would give rise TO; the prospects OF
he Wings are not very encourag-
ng."
Fire away, gentlemenl Wins
IELD SCoTT is not stranger to the
nell of British powder nor the
hook of British balls. He did not
inch at Queenstown, (though inn
nensely outnumbered and at length
verpowered,) and he met your lie
ions unawed a, Chippewa. Lundy's

triumphant. You cannot crush him

Greeley knows how to present a
strong case in a strong light; and
this is the way he does it for the
Democracy Of Clarion county, Pa,
and their disinterested friend, the
editor of the Clarion Register:
"Clarion county, Pennsylvania,
northeast from Pittsburgh) is dis.
tinguished for its iron ore and Loco
foco majoriiies. lis usual mark is
1000 majority for Polk, Cass, &C.,
out of some 1000 votes; but last
fall it piled up 1900 for Bigler.-
The sheriff Of said county offers 10
sell sixiy-nine several parcels OF real
estate on the lst Of May, including
nine furnaces. The sheriff's descrip
ton Of this properly fills nearly six
columns of the Clarion Register. Ol
course, we see how the editor can
stand this, but are not so clear about
the iron-workers and farmers
Shall we say 1900 OF 1900 majority
for you nert fall, gentlemen Don'l
let the editor, who pockets the
profits of advertising your property
at sherif's sale, dictate your an

ASSAULTS UPON GEN. SCoTT. The
New York Mirror, a paper which
does not advocate the election o.
the Wing candidate, in reply to a
very low and coarse attack OF the
Cleveland Plaindealer upon the mill.
tary character OF Gen. Scott, says:
ave can say TO Democratic papers
Of the Cleveland PIaindeaIer stamp,
that such stuff as the paragraph
quoted above can only inspire indig-
nation among the people and lose
hundreds and thousands TO the
Democratic ranks. The bastard
who-io vent his partisan spite
would deny valor. heroism, and ex>
alted military services TO Gen. Scott,
would rob American history OF its
glory, and the Father Of his glory
and the Father Of his Country Of
honor, 10 serve political ends Let
the truth be confessed. Whatever
the other merits Of Scott, as a soldier
and hero, his name IS blazoned
with the spIendor of a fixed star over
the record OF the two national wars.
Ten pitched battles, equal 10 those OF
Cesar, and all glorious victories over
British and Mexican hosts, prove il.
His stalwarth frame is seaned with
battle scars and the nation exuIts
with just pride in his prowess. Yet,
there is an American base enough TO
deny him the credit Of a hero, and
to link his name and claims with
those Of Arnold. Shamel shame!

Do A letter, from a Presbyterian
clergyman, published in the New
York Tribune, avouches Gen. Win
field Scott is one OF the most accom-
plished men in the United States.
He says the General speaks five
languages, two Of them as f1uently
as his. mother tong1e;--and that he
is one Of the very best International
lawyers in the world. He extols
the modesty and private worth Of
the General, whom he represents as
being always just, noble and good.

Preaching by the Chinese.

KEANG-Hoo, or discussing ancient nG;,irs.
as the term implies, is the name OF ii species
OF outdoor or street preaching, not uncom.

days always constitutes the theme OF these
harrangues. The preacher is generally a
man of INDECENT circumstances, but possess
ing retenive memory aud ready elocution.
and his subject end ora,ory not uniie1uenllv

Having committed to memory an his,ori-
cal novel, filled with striking incidents, he
repeats it to his audience, accompanied by
the diversified tones and gestures of dia-

prepared for the purpose, by rnpping it bold

These preachers generally hold forth in
rnatket-placcs, crowded squares and streets
or any place where there is prospect o
securing large congregation, and they are
rewarded for their services by the yo,untar,
contributions of their auditors
There is, however, scarcely any pnblic
instruction throughout the empire, as ihr a.
we can learn. The numerous priests of Fe
