HSeatIs of General Scott.

WEsr PoISr, May 29-Gen. Scott died at
five minutes past eleven o'clock this morn
ing He was out on Saturday afternoon,
and then showed no signs Of his early de-
mise. On Sunday he began failing quite
fast, though none Of his physicians expected
he would expire at such an early day. He
was perfectly conscious up to the moment Of
his death, though he had lost his voice some
two hours previously. He recognized the
Chaplain of the Post ten minutes before he
died, and clasped his hands in silence.
He was born at Petersburg, Va, on the
18th of June, 1886, and died at five min
utes past eleven. A. M, on May goth, and
was therefore almost eighty years of age.
Few men had more eventful career than
his has been. His history is close idel tilted
with that Of his country, and his death will
be everywhere mourned.

the carriage he tottered a little and had to
pause on every step as he mounted to the
hotel. After few days however. he rallied
considerably, and as late as Saturday, at
half-past two, was out to the library and
the village, riding. The same day he wrote
some letters to his friends; but few DAYS
before requested General Callum, command.
ant Of the post, to indite letter for him.
which he franked himself, though in almost
illegible hand.
He appeared to suffer from no specific
ailment, but rather from general decline
of physical strength. His mind was clear
to the last. So little expectation was there
of his immediate demise that his daughter,
Mrs Hoyt, of New York, who had been
for home yesterday. Last night the Gen.
ant Surgeon Of the post, DR.. Marsh, was
Immediately summoned. Even then there
appeared to be no danger, and at o'clock
this morning DR.. Marsh assured Gen. Cal
lum that he had no apprehensions of imme-
date dissolution; but in short time it be-
came evident that the eyentful and useful
life of the patriot soldier was drawing to a
close.
The chaplain, Rev. J. A. French, was
called in, and taking the Generals hand re-
cited q prayer. Though quite conscious and
cognlzant that death was upon him, the
power Of speech was gone, but the dying
soldier pressed the hand of the clergyman
and bowed his head repeatedly in token of
his consciousness of the solemn rites which
Mr.. French was performing according to
the rules of the Episcopal church.
At precisely five minutes after eleven,
quietly as if in slumber, the patriot whose
life has been so intimately associated with
the military history of his country passed
away.
There were present with him at the last
moment Gen G. " Callum, Commandment
of West Point, and for many years aid to
General Scott; Surgeon Head, Assistant
| Surgeon Marsh, Chaplain French, and the
Generals faithful body servant. Gen. Cal
lum Immediately telegraphel to Mrs. Hoyt,
who arrived here al five o'clock this after
noon.
Gen. Scott had only been confined to bed
for the last three days. but during that
time his strength was gradually failing, and
he seemed to have a presentiment that this
was his last visit TO West Point, in which in
| slitution he took an intense interest, and at
which he spent every summer for the last
forty years. When coming from the boat
on the 10Th Of May he remarked to q friend
| that he had come to the old academy to
| die, and in conversation with Capt. Boyn-
ton g few days ago, he replied to some re-
mark concerning his visit to West Point that
he came there TO be buried.
| The last words of Gen. Scott are worth
remembering. About twenty five minutes
before his death he addressed his ostler, AL
len, saying: "James, how is the horse?"
50 lie is well, General" Take care of
him, James," said the dying here, and these
we're the last intelligent words he uttered.
In less than half an hour all was over, and
| GEN Scott had become immortal.
