GES. ScoTT FOR PREsDEsT IN 1850
The New York Herald is, or rather has
been, Mr.. Buchanan's tfdus Achates, de.
lending all his measures, advocating eve
ry feature of his foreign and domestic
policy, and, at times. going to the ex-
treme of suggesting him for reelection.
But In a recent Number of the Herald we
ind an article from which the following
Is an extract. 1t is sign of the times
In order, therefore, to bring ont the
great voice Of the people in 1860, and to
overthrow the well-drille1 files of the
Democratic politicians. the young men
should erect platform of fifty years of
brIllilnt and successful services to the
country, and place upon it the only man
who can stand upon such platform. The
name of Gen. Scott is unstained by the
dirty antecedents of political life. His
eminent services would rally the country
like the sound of trumpet. and super
sede all necessity of cheating conventions,
political panderers. and lying leaders.
The history Of the country has made him
honorably known to every man, woman
and child. We find him fighting their
battles in early life on the Canadian line;
defending their lives on the Western from
tier; putting down notification in South
Carolina; meeting the old British foe at
Aroostook; paeifying the Mcleod excite
ment in New York. and leading our vic
toriOus arms to the city of Mexico. Ev-
erywhere he is known as hero, pacif-
Gator and victor. Honored with the
confidence of the government in hun
dred emergencies. he has shown on every
occasion that he is worthy of the conf
dence Of the people. Such a man, on
such platform, would be invincible.

The Vienna correspondent Of the London Times
relates the following curious incident in recent
letter:
A few days ago, a Baron Bilbersten died here, and
after his death no money was found in the house.
although he had always passed for wealthy man.
Inquiries were made by his heir, and its being dis
covered that banker had paid into bis hands the
sum of 170 O0Oa but few days before his DEATH his
valet was arrested by the police on suspicion of hay
ing made away with the money. As the man said
that his master left his bed couple Of days before
he died in order to burn some papers, the stove in the
bed room was searched. Nothing but the remains Of
documentswere found, and the servant was kept in
custody until it occurred to some that il might
be as well TO examine the other stoves. The exami-
nation was made, and the numerous remains of bank
notes of l,O00a each, proved the innocence Of the
valet and the destructyeness of his master.
The Baron, who was divorced from his wife, often
expressed doubts about the legitimacy of bis only
son, and, in order that he should profit little as
possible by his DEATH he burned bank notes CT the
value Of l62 000f (&l6 ,200) When the door Of the
stove was open the word thousand was distinctly
visible on many Of the consumed notes, which Of
course fell to pieces when touched.
