GEy. Scorr on OUR GENERaLs.-The Wash

zotto says that Gen. Scott was encountered
tho other day by a leading Washington OFF,
cial, with whom tho old veteran fell into u
very unreserved talk about our Gcnerals.-
He pronounccs Leo the greatest General of
the war, thus far; and he declares that he
was more disappointed in Gen. McClellan's
performances than he ever was before with
those of any officer in our service. Gen.
Grants operations he spoke of as displaying
moro military skill than any other General
had exhibited on our side and he was moro

American, which consists in grotesque by

kill il when they wish to show it to US, but
the lively Yankee humorist just catches 1t
by the tail Us it passes, and stretches 1t into
ludicrous proportions, as actors in panto-
mines do the tails Of those famous ductilc

Everybody has heard OF the weather which
was so cold that the mercury went out OF

n GOOD deal colder il the thermometer had
been long enough. A similar cxaggeration
was that Of a young man who took calomel
on n morning so cold that the mercury ran
down in his boots. And speaking of boots
reminds us Of the stage driver who wore 80
large ones that he had to use forks OF the
road as boot jack. The following passages
are illustrations The man out west whose

three PAGES to reach the end OF it. The
man who was so large and heavy that his
shadow killed little boy when it foil on
