LIEUT.. GEN. ScoTT.--As Gen Scott was
riding down Broadway last Monday morning.
his horse slipped upon the smooth pavement,
and he was obliged to alight. Immediately a
host Of friends from the crowd that was pass-
ing gathered around the gallant old soldier.
and congratulated him on the good news from
Washington--the report that Attorney General
Cushing had decided in favor Of his back nav.
But this rumor. like all good reports of the
present administration, soon proved fallacious.
II may not be uninterestng to many of our
readers to know that at least three of the most
distinguished ex-Attorney Generals of the
United States have already given decided and
elaborate opinions in favor of the back nav to
Gen. Scott and that similar opinions have
been given by several others of the most emf.
nent lawyers in the country. Indeed, the case
seems too plain and clear to require much
time for a correct opinion; and we are led to
apprehcnd, from the long delay which has at
tended the action Of Attorney General Cushing.
that he Is taking time to cover up false posi-
tian by specious argument; and that he is pre-
pairing one of those documents-not unknown
in his personal history which are best dis
posed Of by getting another person to 70
privately before magistrate, and assume.
under oath, their authorship
We learn that the war-worn veteran whom
this imbecilc administration is keeping out Of
his honest dues, is at present suffering severely

STRONG LANGUAGE IN HIGH QuARTEHs-Our
Washington telegraphic correspondent has re-
ported to us that, in letter from General
Scott to gentleman in Washington, he says
that the Secretary of War has acted towards
him vindictively, maliciously and meanly."
Probably the late "sharp correspondence.
between these distinguished parties, when
brought to light before Congress, will estab-
fish this charge We don't know; but from
all that has transpired in the case, the admins
tration has acted very "meanly," if not swim
dictively and maliciously'' towards the Gene
ral-in-Chief Of the army, in the matter of his
pay as Lieutenant-Ge General, and in other small
er matters of persecution. We must await the
production of the correspondence.
