GEN ERAL SCOTT.

The Washington corresponds Mt Of the
Spring Geld Republican pays the following
deserved tribute To General Scott:
In all the seeding States there is no
one man so unpopular at the present mo
nent MS Gen. Scott. Not even A be Lin
coin. or MIR. Seward. is the object of SO
much criticism and abuse as Gen. Scott,
He Is hated by every sccessionisl in the
country, and for one reason only-be-
cause he ii for enforcing the laws and lie
lending the property Of the United States.
The nation owes an immense debt of gra-
ititude 10 Scott. for in the darkest days OF
the kepuo!ic. when President and Cabi
net were in the slough of secession, be
stood erect. With the entire Admins
tration against him, he was firm. He
did not fear to say plain and bold things
to Mr. Buchanan. Said he, g Mr.. Blu
ehanan, Major Anderson has saved The.
eountrys honor, and gours ac,th u.''
A; one time Mr. Buchanan inclined TO
ordering Anderson back to Fort Moul.rir.
Gen. Scott declared his purpose in such n
Contingency to resign his commission
Such an act the Pte>id. Mt well knew
would arouse the people Of the Free
States to the ishting pitch. 1t was the
additional ounce that called down The
Union weight. Since then the Presiden.
has been tolerahly firm. The appoint
| ment OF MIR. Stanton of Pittsbury to the
cabinet was sn era in our history. The
moment he was inside the council Of the
nation. lie and Holt combined 1T once
their induence and power TO save th.
Country from the miserable doctrine oil
secession. Before that, Holt. who was I.
true Uhlon man, had been entirely unob-
served in cabinet by Floyd. TAom son,
Ioucey and Company. Now he joine,;
hands with Stanton, and both suppor,e.!
the views of Scott in Cabinet. These
gentlemen, Holt, Stanton and Scot, are
the mo popular men in The couatty ,uu.
