Lient. Gen. Scott at Hone-The arrival
of Lieut., Gen. Winfield Scott at New York,
from San Juan, bearing the news of the tenn
porary settlement Of the disputed island ques-
ton, was announced on Tuesday. He was
accompanied by Col Lay, Col. Thomas, and
DIR. Crane, all of the United States army
The two former were sent Immediately to
Washington, as bearers Of dispatches to Pres
ident Buchanan, containing full statement
of the terms of the settlement of the San Ju-
an imbroglio. Gen. Scott was entire ly un-
expected. and therefore the citizens of New
York were precluded from giving him
handsome reception. The Times says =
Some fears were entertained that the in6rmi-
ty of years would render the Journey too
wearisome sfor his strength. but the result is
happily different. Immediately after his dis
embarcation from the Atlantic, he went to
his residence on twelfth street. where the
members of his family gave him welcome
more grateful doubtless to the old veteran s
feelings than any Of the ovacations have been
which he has received since his departure. =
Gen. Scott states that since he left this city,
on the Goth of last September, he had travel
ed thirteen thousand miles. So far from i'm
pairing his health, the constant changes have
been of decided benefit, ard he says that he
was never more vigorous and robust than he
at the present. He expresses the greatest
qualification at the warm reception which was
every where accorded him.

E One of the most fortunate of public
men is John c. Breckenridge, of Kentucky
Nearly every step that he has taken in public
life has been a success. Elected twice to the
House Of Representatives, once over Leslie
Coombs, and again over Robert Letcher, in
the Lexington district, after an animated can
vass, he became the Democratic candidate for
Vice President in 1856, having formally de-
clined the honor, which was subsequently
pressed upon him, and before his term of of
fee as Vico President expires, the telegraph
informs us that be has just been elected for
six years to the United States Senate from the
State of Kentucky-and all this before he
reached his thirty-ninth year He has many
friends for the Presidency, who will urge him
with the utmost enthusiasm. 1t is not often
that We have such case presented in these
days. Should Mr.. Breckenridge be nomina-
ted for the Presidency, he will have gone the
rounds of the highest distinction before he
has attained that period Of life which. in Eng
land, may be said to mark the beginning of
a statesman's active career.
