Gen. Scott arrived on the 26th alt. at Port Town
send where he is to have his headquarters while IN
United States war-steamer Massachusetts,, bound 10
Beliing CHAM Bay.
On the way np from here the mail steamer North
erner with Gen. Scott on board, entered the Columbia
River ard assembled to Vancouver There Gen. Har-
ney and staff came board and went with Gen. Scott
10 Portland; but the latter place Harvey suddenly
disappeared, on Saturday afternoon without taking
leave of his superior officer and when the steamer
touched the next day, at Vancouver, Harneys head
quarters he was not visible, though he had gone
thither from Portland. He evidently, was in high
dudgeon al the vst of Scott From all can learn OF
Gen. Harvey from persons who have had an Opportu.
nv 10 see him at hand, am satisfied that he ~
entirely unfit for his present exalted position.
He may be reckless fellow, very good TO
lead q charge upon a troop Of savages, but
he has not the decacy of feeling or the just moral
sentiments necessary 10 gentleman, nor the prudence
necessary 70 a man, commanding multitude OF men,
nor the education necessary 10 position where some
statemanke qualities would be not out OF place. He
does not resi- ect himself ordoesh he know what it IL TO
tIeat others with respect. IL delights him 10 indulge
without prOvOeatiOn, IN TRADES OF abuse and vulgar
oaths of the soldiers about him; and then perhaps,
in a few minutes afterward he may be laughing and
Joking in a low way with the same men. The cOnse-
ouence s that he is not only dslked but despsed by
most Of the officers who know bin, and not admired
by anybody. He is very unpopular in Oregon and
the Nathingtonians would dislike him too if II were
not that by lis San Juan policy he has attracted aten-
ton 10 the Territory, and thus drawn some men and
money TO the country. A correspondent of The Aka,
writing about his conduct at Portland, says:
Previous his departure he INDUCED in of hs cbarsc

tice ped The General popular aud although
the under him do the best they to hide their own
impressions and Sengf fear be is not respected
We do not yet know what Gen. Scott intends TO do.
AT Portland Gen. Scott was greeted by the firing of
cannon and ringing of bells, and the city authorities
voted him the freedom Of the city, made speeches at
him, &c.
Rich gold diggngs have been discovered on bar Of
the Simikameen River, about 100 miles southwest
ward from Fort Colville east of the Cascade Noun
tains. A party OF I. 5. soldiers were making gu
each in halt day-they could not work more than
Elk hours per day, having to walk six miles from camp
with knives and pans with rockers they could make
S2OO per day, and with suices 81 COO. These reports
come in private letters written by Trustworthy army
ofeers; and though published anonymously they
known TO be reliable. They state, however that only
one small bar has been found thus rich and other
good dggings have been discovered in the vicn-
ity; nor indeed, has there been any thorough pros
peetlrg.
