The recou- | struction resolutions were taken up, und the third section struck out by a unanimous vote. Mr. Howard offered o number of anendments, which were ordered to bo printed, and Mr. Sumner offered a substitute for the bill, and in- troduced & bill to enforce the auti-Slavery amendment. The joint resolution to facilitate ruilway communication was amended and passed, and the Senate adjourned. HOUSE.

After some routine businoss the House adjourned. FOREIGN NEWS, By the arrival of the 8t. David's at Father Point, and of the Persia st this port, we have tlrec days’ later news from Europe. France, England and Ressia had agreed upon proposing s European (,‘gn for sottling the ueuua': J?’.m.. Schleswig-Holstein and the reform of the Gergan Con- wderation; but no hope was outertained of the Congress Linl able to prevent war, At the date of the latest ad- vices there were vague rumors from Paris stating that bostilitities had almost cimmenced. The Paris Conference on the Danubian Principalities had consented to & union of the two Principalities, but not to the election of & fi'"ifi: Prince. The Iature had, however, sgain elected Prince Charles of Hohenzollern by ap almost unanimous vote. A sanguinary conflict h.fi taken place between the Turks and the troops of the Prin- cipalities. ‘Garibaldi has accepted the command of voluntears who were being enrolled in every district and municipality.

B The citizens of New-York who prefer a decent, quiet Sunday, and who do not grudge New-Jersey and Waestchester the Sabbath custom of our rum rewdigs, meet this evening at Cooper Institute to say Well done to the Legislature and the Excise Commission. Go! e T The House has passed another Freedmen's Burean bill, continuing the Bureau for two years. It con- tains a proviso forh the restoration of th: lands held by the freedmen in South Carolina and Georgia uuder Gen, Sherman's order to their former owners, excopt by judicial dotermination. The bili went through by 9 to 32. - Ameng the nays we nete the names of Messrs. Darling, Davis, Hale, and Ray- mond of this State, elected as Republicans. We trust this measure may receive early attention in the Senate. This Congress onght not to adjourn without perfecting some measuro for the strengthen- ing of the Burean. _—_— The Senate yesterday—we rejoice to say—passed— Yeas, 22; Nays, 19—the House bill to, facilitate commercial, postal, and military intercourse between the States—in other words, to block the game of black-mailing the people of one State for the privilege of passing across the soil of another State on their way tomarket. The majority is not so strong as it should have been—every name being recorded among the Nays that naturally belongs there, and a few others, We trust this bill secures the downfall of such corrupt, nefarions monopolies as the Camden and Amboy, and, we regret to be compelled to add, Penn- sylvania Central. That concern evidently aspires to be the Camden and Amboy of Pennsylvaria. We trust this bill will prevent any such calamity. The House yesterday considered the bill for the restoration of the Rebel States to their politicel rights, being the second part of the plan reported April 30, from the Reconstriction Committee. It assumes the | adoption by Congress of tho constitutional amend- | ment, and enacts that whenever it shall have become part of the Constitntion, and amy Rebel State shadl have ratified it, and modified its constitution and laws accordingly, Senators and Representatives from such State may be adwitted into Congress. It further allows the direct tax under the act of 1561, remaining uupaid, to be assumed by the State, and payment to be postponed for ten years. This Wil was debated by Latham, and its farther cons to-day. It is understood that it from day to day until disposed of. Mossrs. Ashley and i postponed till will be continued The Reconstruction resol terday in the Senate, Mr. H the amendments agreed upon in caucus by the Repub- lican Senators. The third section, excluding Rel from the franchise till July 4, 1570, was struck out by a unanimons vote—Yeas, 43; Absent, 6. ment to the first section proposes to insert at the be- gining that ** AN persons born in the United States and subject to t urisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they re- gide.” The change in the second section i one of phraseology. In place of section three is pro- posed a8 section declaring ineligible to any office, State or national, civil or military, any mem- | her of Coi or United States ofticer, or | member of 8 egislature, & c., who, having sworn to support the Constitution of the Un States, was concerned in the Rebellion—the disability to be re- movable by vote of two-thirds of each House. A new fourth section is inserted declaring the invidlability of | all war debts incurred for the The old fourth section becomes section five, and is verbally amended, and debts, claims, &e., which are forbidden to be as- sumed, are also declared forever illegal aud void. The amendments were ordered to be printed. Mr. Sumuner submitted an amendment to be offered as & substitute for the bill, requiring the grant of the elect- ive franchise, without distinetion of race or color, as lent to the readmission of any State. The amens o, a condition prec SHA WE GREATLY DARE? Our readers know that, from the hour of the Re- bellion's collapse and utter overthrow, our platform of Reconstruction has been short and simple—U's1- VERSAL AMNESTY—IMPARTIAL SUFPRAGE. Restore to every man all the rights he forfeited by treason, on the single condition that all persons born under the jurisdiction of our ‘Government or naturalized into American citizenship sball enjoy equal Civil and Political Rights. We do not ask that Suffrage shall e absolutely universal, but that no qualifications be exacted, no conditions or restrictions imposed, which do not bear equally on all colors and races. Say that every man shall be able to read, or to read and write, or shall have paid a tax, or shall show that he an honest livelihood in some useful call- gains ing, or was never couvicted of erime — ex- act any or all these, if you will, provided you require them equally of White and Black. We require none of them—propose none: but we will con- sent to any that gives the Blacks a fair chance to acquire the right of self-protection by the ballot on condition of deserving it. We would have the exace tion apply universally—to New-York and Illinois, equally with Virginia and Texas—and we wonld at once give to every Southern State its full representa. | tion—no ** three-fifths of all other persons"—but all | never been any Slavery in the land. And these terms | we believe every State lately in revolt ought gladly to accept; and, if they were proposed kindly, firmly, backed by manitest power, we believe they-wonld be accepted. We do not say to our political friends, ** Adopt our programme, or we will oppose you We shall do uothing of the sort. 'We propose to abide in and act with that great, patriotic party, which so nobly ¢ ried our country through whe trials and perils of late Civil War. We offer our suggestion as & mem- ber of that party: we shall be right glad to see it adopted: but, if it is not, we shall still go with the Union party, believing that we can thus do more good than by breaking off from it and setting up iv opposi- tion to it. Whatever plan of Reconstruction shall ultimately be agreed on by the great body of the Uunionists in Congress, that we shall do our best to have accepted. But we shall like it the better the nearer it comes to embodying fully and only the two principles of Universal Amnesty—Impartial Ruffrage, + But the country is not yet prepared to accept your for the argnment's sake, ad it," we answer, * Ourprogramme is in advance of public senti- ment on both points: There is & majority in favor of imposing some penal inflictions or disabilities on the late Rebels. There is also a majority (very differ- ently constituted) hostile to what they inaccurately term * Nigger Equality.” Admit all yon choose to as- sert on these points, oreither of them. Admit that we should be voted down at the ensuing Elections, and a Copperhead majority returned to the next Congress, who wonld admit the Rebels nnconditionally and pnt the Blacks nnder their feet. That would be morally oertain to ocenr but onee. The allies, by their legisla- 1t died yestorday at | tion in Congress, by their oppression of the Blacks, West Point, a faw days short of 20 years old. ‘Though | by their geueral exhibitions of innate depravity, he had long been quite infirm and feeble. his death [ would be morally =ure to bankruot themeeltes ina to which she would have been entitled if there had | A yoar; and then we should not merely rogain power but keep Such is our deliberate conviction. The N. Y. Times dissents from this view—not only dissents from, but caricatures it—saying: We doubt wheth deom it quite to DIE.” in the hope of a glorions resurgec- tion, especially when its death lets in the seceded States ‘on their own terms,’ aud thus fortifies, beyond reasouable hope of subsequent expalsion, the most disloyal leaders of the Demo- aratic party. Possibly, the Union party migbt, at some future day, experienco a gloriogs resurrection; but the chances in the ense supposed would searcelyfwarrant the experiment. “1t_the Union majority in Congress had been wise enough to codiperate with the {'rnhlcm. instead of resisting and waging war upon him, the Rebel States would bave come back into Congress on terma perfeotly satisfactory to the country, and perfeotly consistent with the harmony and security of thie nation. They would have seen in the Union Administration their best friends, instead of enemies, and would have been only too glad to codperate with that party ip such measures a5 might establish justice, equal rights, and civil liberty through- out the South.” s Comments by The Tribune. The ruling caste at the South, who forced ber into the late Rebellion, have just one measure of friend- ship: * Will you help us keep the Blacks as nearly in the condition of brutes as possible?” Whoever will do this, they account ** their best friends;” whoever will not, are classed with their *‘enemies.” Apart from this single, absorbing issue, they realize that the Editor of Tug TriBUNE is more their friend than many of those whom fhey are mow vehemently landing. There was not a man in all the country, North or South, whom they more thoroughly detested and abliorred, one little year ago, than Andrew Johnson, They regarded him as not merely a deadly foel but as a detestable apostate and traitor. Yet, from the moment that they found his *‘plan” suscep- tible of being so developed and applied as to plan their heel once more on the necks of the Blacks, they turned a short corner and, from #he most uumeasured abuse and reviling of the President, became his un- measured eulogists and thick-and-thin supporters, They would rally around Wendell Phillips to-morrow if they eould convert him to a like use. We deny then, peremptorily, that the late Rebels could have been won to love and confido in the Union party on terms consistent either with National secur- ity or National honor—much less, on terms which would * establish justice, equal rights, and civil liberty throughout the South.” Precisely because it enables them to ecade such establishment, they now, glorify “‘the President's policy.” 1f it were calculated to “ establish equal rights and civil liberty throughont the South,” they would be its and his determined an- tagonists, . —Now, then, as to ““death” ond * resurrection.’ The Party of Progress must often dare to take a step in advance of average public sentiment. It did this in urging Emancipation in 1562, as the defeat of G “Wadsworth, and kindred results in Pennsylyania, Ohio, Indiana, Ilinois, &e., demonstrated; but its reverses then proved the harbinger of glorious and beneficent successes thereafter. 8o it will be again andl again. But defeat. by no means necessarily attends such daring. In 1%49, Ohio repealed ber Black Laws— in defiance, probably, of the prevalent opinion among her citizens; yet those laws have never been reénacted, and never will be: If Equal Rights regard- less of Color were this hour engrafted on the Federal Constitution, no intelligent person believes that they would ever bo eliminated therefrom. Canada on one side, Mexico on the other, to-day ignores all inequality of Political Rights founded in Color; yet no Rebel, no Copperhead, finds o resi- ne o recently emigrated from the South, with all her » Proscription, to South America, where (even in slavebolding Brazil) all colors are equal before the law. Itis as a political weapon—a means of profit- ing by the prejudices and controlling the votes of the meaner Whites—that Negro Proseription is still clung to by the aristocracy of the South. Over all this round globe, there is no being who dare call himself a Democrat o Republican who op- poses Negro Enfranchisement save in these United States. A European Democrat would as soon think of upholding **the Right Divine of Kings to govern “eudal system. We will hope and wrong,” or the strive that this monstrous anomaly may be in its last | quarter, aud that, ere five more years have elapsed, there will be no rational being on earth who dare call himself a Democrat or Liberal while he justifies and votes for the perpetual degradation of a ruce. THE ANSWER FRON THE BUREAU, The fair and clear statement which Gen. Howard has transinitted to Congress regarding the conduct of his assistants aud their subordinates in the adminis- tration of the Freedmen's Burcau, disposes at once and effectually of the report which the military- political firg of Steadman and Fullerton sent North for circulation. fully the charges which figure in their report. That report is mainly a mass of rumor, upon which they built up an argument against the Freedmen's Bureau, consistent, we suppose, with the purpose of their journey. This was %o evident on reading their report that the public are quite prepared for the mass of testi- mony in confuiation which Gen, Howard has to offer. No counter-charge is attempted by Gen. Howard, and yet, we think, it is made evident that the investi- gating Commissioners have been journeying from the trath ever since they traveled South. In the case of the Rev. Mr. Fitz, who had charge of the Trent Settlement near Newbern, the public had every right to know its full complexion, if the Commissioners were worth hearing at all. 1f guilty, Mr. Fitz's con- duct should have been fully set forth, and not upon any partial testimony, and if’ invocent, Messrs. Steadman and Fullerton have done this gentle- | wan a grave wrong. Before the combined Generals, traveling in the interests of the Prosident, had seized upon such a lucky argument as the case of Mr. it seems that it was already the subject of investiga- tion by court-martigl and by the proper authorities. From their judgment, and vot from any hearsay, Fullerton and Steadman were bound to ob- r to sustain a charge made to Lookiug on this feature of their mission, the report of these gentlemen reads more plausibly as a private letter to the President, or to The N. V. Herald, than as a document intended for the cyes of the vation, The worst charge of Messrs, Steadman and Fuller- ton was made, unfortunately, we think, for them, against the best officer. As insinuated and shadowed in their report, this charge was, in effect, that Col. Whittlesey, the Assistant-Commiissioner for North | Caroling, approved the killing of a delinquent freed- man by an officer of the Bureau. But the proof is that no essential feature of this occurrence, except the fact that the freedman was Killed, has been re- ported truly by the traveling Generals, 1t is untrue that the person who killed him was a officer of the Bureau; it is untrue that the case was refused an in- | vestigation: of course it is untrue that the killing was approved, The accusation that officers were engaged in private business, managing plantations on their own account, is fairly met by Col. Whittlesey’s dispassionate state- ment. No personal speculation on the part of Burean officers existe, nor any such misfénsance as alleged in the report of Steadman and Fullerton; but we think those who Lave lately resided in the South are ready to agree with Geu. Fullerton that the invest- ment of money in plantations, “at a time when distrust ruled, and no contracts could be made between planters &nd freedmen, had the effect of a good example.” The “ evils of the system” are the evils of all systems. That the Burean has suffered from the conduct of some of its officers we have no doubt. We are astonished, however, that Messrs, Steadman and Fullerton ventured to make an attack, open or covert, upon an officer whose modest and Christian character in the army and in private life is so well kown ae Gen, Whittleser's. Gen. Stoad- the great body of the Union party will | n cither intolerable. Quite s number of Rebels | 1t appears that in bardly an instance | have ejther of these gentlemen paused to investigate | man's attempt to intimidate Gen. Whittlesey in p: vate, and to damage him with the public, were alike failures. On the whole, the report of the President’s confi- dential agents has been of excellent effect iu qalling forth so much interesting counter-testimony. Gen. Howard showed his good sense by ordering at once the trial of every suspected officer; and is prepared to pursue the same course whenever challenged. ANOTHER EU We have, at length, some official confirmation concerning the project of a European Congress, which has for some time been actively canvassed by the European press, On May 18, members of the English Government anuounced to both Houses of Parlisment that negotiations were going on be- tween the Governments of France, Russia, and England, for a Congress to be held at Paris; but little hope was held out of the ability of the Con- gress to preserve peace. No official statement has yet been published con- cerning the character of the negotiations, but from the concurrent opinion of the best informed papers of Lurope, we deem it safe to infer that France, Russia, and England are agreed to propose the discussion of three questions: Venetia, Schleswig-Holstein, aud the Reform of the German Confederation. The Independance Belge, a paper which is usually well informed on diplomatic,negotiations, pretends to know that the propositions presenjed to Congress would be as follows: First : That the Schleswig-Hol- stein question be submitted to the decision of the in- habitants. Second : That the proposal presented by Prussia for a reform of the Federal Constitution be examined, in as far as it may relate to the equilibrium of Europe. Third : That Venetia be ceded to Italy for a certain compensation, Ttaly guaranteeing and recognizing the temporal sovercignty of the Pope within its present limits. 5 Certain it is, that Ttaly will not be a party to any arrangement which does not provide for the cession of Venetia. The Government, the Parliament, and the press, seem to be a unit in regarding war as inevitable, unless Austria should declare her readiness to part with Venetia. At the'date of our latest advices there were vague rumors from Paris that hostilities were just about to begin, In Turkey, & bloody conflict had taken place between the forces of the Danubian Principali- ties and the Turks. The Paris Conference for settling the fate of the Principalities has denied to their people the right of choosing a foreign prince, but the new Legislature has nevertheless again elected Prince Charles of Hohenzollern by an almost unanimous vote. —_—e CWHAT'S IN A NAME?” Our readers are aware that the Legislature, at it« last session, changed the name of the New-York ce Academy to the New-York College. This was deemed an innocent matter, harming nobody. But there proves to be an African in the fence. The | Board of Education last Winter asked and obtained 2,454,000 for their estimated expenditures during the present year. Included in this sum is the | following item: | Yor the support of the Free Academy—To pay the salaries of 28 professors and tutors, aud to procure apparatus, &c The professors and tators of the *Academy, having all become professors and tutors of the “College,” without alteration of their duties or salaries, it was not supposed that rechristening the institution could be made the pretext for a raid upon the City Treasury. This delusion, bowever, has been dispelled. The act contains the ordinary pro- vision, autborizing the Board of Supervisors to raise th cessary amount to defray the expenses of the new College. Ignoring the fact that $90,000 had already been provided for this purpose, the Board yesterday passed an ordinance to raise by tax an additional sum of 855,000, to pay the Professors, &c., of the New-York College. Supervisor Ely asked an explanation, and desired to know what was to become of the amount already raised. As no expla- predict that a large part of this extra appropriation will find its way into the pockets of a ciass of Professors who are v unlike - those usually attached to institutions like the Free Academy and College—that is, the Professors of the noble art of stealing through a “‘Ring.” LIEUT.-GEN. SCOTT. Lieut.-Gen, WINFIELD ScoTt died at West Point | alittle after 11 o'clock yesterday morning. Few Ameri- cans will pear without emotion the agnouncement of the death of one who in years past has deserved so well of his country; although, intirm as he had been for a loug while, the news does not come upon us with the shoek of a surprise, [ Wintield Scott was born in Petersburg, Va., June 13, 1786, and consequently at the time of his death lacked only two weeks of the uge of 80. He was the grandson of an adherent of the Pretender, who fled to America from the field of Culloden, and the son of Captsin William Scott, an officer of the army of the Revolution. He was educated at William and Mary College, and after having devoted a short time to legal studies, removed to Charleston, with the intention of practicing there as & lawyer. But tBe war with Great Britian was then immi- nent, and when hostilities seemed on the eve of breaking ont, young Scott, who once before on a similar alarm had ridden 25 miles by night as soon as he heard a cry for vol- unteers, and appeared on parade the next morning in borrowed uuiform in the ranks of & dragoon regiment, turew down his books and hastened to Washington to ask for a commission. In April, 1808, a bill passed Congress | authorizing the inerease of the Regular Army by the addi- | | tion of cight new regiments, and on the 3d of the next | month Scott was appointed a Captain in one of them—the light He recruited his company in Petershurg and Richmond, and was sent with it to New-Orleans to join the army on the Mississippi, then commanded by Gen, Wilkinson, who was shortly afterward relieved by Wade Hawmpton, the grandfather of the notorious Rebel cavalry leader. Scott cordially detested Wilkinson, | whom he regarded as & coward and an accomplice in the | tre of Aaron Burr, and with the hot-headed contempt | for consequences which always distinguished bim, he ex- | pressed his opinion of his commander very freely at a public table. The consequence was a court of inquiry, ! partly into this matter, and partly into a technical irreg- | ularity in his aecounts, involving, however, no personal | dishonor. He | This time he employed ut home in studying law, snd, toa subordinate degree, in reading works on military science, « who knows but that I may yet write my history with my sword 17 Very soou after rejoining his command, he was | curious to mark how unsettled he seemed to be about his | future carcer, for he continued toveview Coke and Black- stone as energetically us he reviewed the troops, and thought as much about admission to the bar of New-Or- leans as he did about glory in the field. The war came at last, in 1812, and Capt. Scott was promoted to the rank of lientenant-colonel, and ordered to the Niagara frontier. Here hie witngssed his first battle—the affais of Queens town Hights—where he commanded on the field during the latter part of the day, and greatly distinguished him- self. In cousequence of the cowardice of the American re- serves, he was taken prisoner with his whole command, | but was soon exchanged. The British, scting up to their doctrine of perpetual allegiance,” which had been a principal eause of the war, selected the Irish and British- born prisoners to be sent to England and tried for treason: but Col. Scott induced our Government to adopt such vigorous retalistive measures that the meu were released. In the Spring of 1813, he roturned to the frontier, with the rauk of colonel and the position of chief of staff to Gen, Dearborn. He commanded the American forces which captured Fort George, on the 27th of May, when e was soverely wounded, He shared iu the abortive frontier campaign of “ that unprincipled imbecile” (a8 he used to call him), Wilkinson, and when that was over, was sent, with the rank of Brigadicr-general, to command @ cawp of ingtruction at Buflalo, The value of his labors v nation was deigned to this question, it is safe to | atenced to be suspended for a year. | hould war come at lust,” he wrote during this interval, | assigued o position o Gen.

But it is | ———— m this place was strikingly displayed at the battle of Chippewa, July 4, 1814, when, after a long seris of disas ters, the American arma gained a victory, small in itself, but most important in its moral effect. In this engage- ment, a3 well a8 in the well-fought battle of Lundy's Lane, about three wecks afterward, Seott had s gallant and prominent share. In the latter action he was twice wounded. He was immediately brevetted Major-General, and Congress ordercd a gold medal to be presentod to him n testimony of their apprecistion of his distinguished services, *and of his uniform gellantry aud good conduet the reputation of the arms of the United States.”” He was offered the post of Secretary of War, but declined it, The peace which soon ensusd gave 'him an opportunity to visit Europe, Where he saw Paris during the allied occupation, and made many distingnished acquaintances. With the ex- ception of the publication of his “ General Regulations for the Army” in 1825, and one or two persoual quarrels. with Gen. Jacksou aand others, which fortunately did not lead to hostile meetings, he did notbirg to bring himseld much before the public until the outbreak of the Black Hawk war in 1832, when he was sent to the West in com- mand of an army, but had mo oppoitunity of fizhting. During the nullification troubles he commanded in Charleston. The hostilities with the Seminols Iudians in Florida began in 1335, and Scott was ordered to the theater of war, but was soon recalled and sent to the Cresk country, His campaiga bere too was Dbrief, aud was closed by a court of inquirr, which decided fully in his tavor, He attributed the sufmoning of this court to the personal enmity of Gen. Jackson. In 1841 ko became General-ine Chief, on the death of Gea, Macomb. Passing over the difficulties arising from the Canadian Rebellion in 1837, the North-Eastern boundary disputes is 1839, and the semoval of the Chorokees from Georgia, im all which General Seott rendered important services te the Government, wo come to the war in whick he was ta reap his greatest harvest of renown, and estallish a repu- tation as one of the best of living soldiers. The Moxican war opened in May, 1846, with the battles of Palo Alte and Resaca de l1a Palma, followed by those of Monterey and Buena Vista in Soptember and February—ali won by Gen. Taylor. It was evident, after the storming of Mon- terey, that hostilities, to be effective, must be carried inte the interior of Mexico, and a new line of operations chosen, having the capital for its objective. The army for this task was placed under the command of Gem. Seott, who landed at Vera Cruz with 12,000 men, March 9, 1847; captured the city aftor a bombardment of fifteen days; and on the Sth of April begaz his march toward Mexico. The hights of Cerro Gordo, where Saata Aana had thrown his ammy across the American’s path, were stormed with magnificent gallantry on the 13th; Jalapa was taken on the 19th, Perote on the 22, and Puchis on May 15, Hera Gen, Scott was compelled to Lalt, and wait for reéuforcements until Aug. 7, whea, the troops haviag been well drilled and order restored in the conquored Provinces by the rigorous enforcement of a code of Lawa deduced from the articles of war acd the general criminal jurisprudence of the United Statos, b resamed his march, and on the L0th reached Mexico. Santa Anna had not boen idle. The city was strongly placed and had been carefully fortified. Concealing his movements by a demopstration from the eastern side of the city, Scott transferred his army suddenly to the south of it, and carried the convent,chureh, and fete de pont of Churubusco and the intrenched camp of Cotreras, held by Gen. Valencia with7,000 picked men, beside a reserve of 12,000 under Santa Anna. The city might now have been taken, but it was deemed best ta negotiate, and an armistice was granted, but without say. good result. At the beginning of September, operations were resumed on the S, W. side of the'city. The woolod | hights of Chapultepee, with the Molino del Roy aud the | Casa Mata, wers stormed by Worth, Quitman, aud Pilow, | September 13, and the sawe u the Sau Cosme and Belen gates were carriod aftor beroie fighting. The nexf morning the American army antered the city intriumph, and the war was virtually at an end. The treaty of Guad- slupe Hidalgo was sizned Mareh 2, 1818, and the troope soon afterward evacuated the capital, having won the es- teem of tho citizens by their strict discipline and orderly conduet. Gen. Scott, of coursa, reccivad a succession of populae ovations on his return to the United States, and the two Houses of Congress presented him with & joint resolution of thanks, A motion was repeatedly introduced to coafor upon him the brevet rank of Lisutenant-Geueral, but the opposition of Mr. Jofforson Davis defeated it, and the General did not receive this merited recognition of hisg services until 1359, His conduct in Mexico had also boen criticised, and he was forced at the very hour of his great victory to undergo tae mortification of a court of inquiry, which fully exouerated him, after a long iavestigation. He was a candidats for nomination in the Whig Presiden- tial Convention ia 1348, but Gen. Taylor was preferred ta him. He was nominated by the Whig party in 1852, and and received 1,386,580 votes, against 1,601,274 for the sue- cessful caudidate, Gon. Pierce, though he carried only four States—Mastachusotts, Vermont, Kentucky, and Ten, nessee. In 1850 he was ordered, to our extrewe North Western froatior, w0 settle a disputed question of boua, dary with the British authorities of Vancouver's Island. The outbreak of the Rebellion found Gen. Seott still a6 the head of the Army, but infirm in hoalth and no lonzer capable of dirocting an active campaign. But' he was frequently in consultation with the Cabinet and military authorities at Washington, As early as October, 1560, ha had urged President Buchanan to garrison the Southern forts, aud he repeatedly begged leave to send such troops as he could reach to Charleston, Pensacola, and Mobile harbors. Our readers will remember the controversy on these matters which took place between him and | ex-President Buchavan sowe time afterward. On the 34 of March, 1861, he addressed to Mr. Seward a uote of | advice, in which he urged him, s the probable chief | member of the new Cabinet, to throw off the old lesig, | uation of Republicans and assume thatof the Union party; | to adopt the Crittenden Compromise, and to collect the ’ import duties outside the ports of which the Government | bad lost the command, or alse to blockade them. Ha wanted no war in any ecase, and concluded with these words: ““Say to the seceled States—' Wayward sistors depart in peace.” "’ @ On the 31st of October, 1861, having been a eripple and unable to walk without assistance for three years, bhe re. | tired from the army, President Lincoln aod all the Members of the Cabinet waiting upon hun to bid him farewell. By special ace of Congross he retained lis ful pay and allowances, He sailed for Europe in November, inseareh of health, but the threateming nature of our relations with Great Britain, arising out of the seizure of | Mason and Slidell, induced him to hasten howme for the purpose of using his influence with the Administration in the cause of peace. The next two or three years he de. voted to the preparation of au autobiography, which was published in New-York in 1864, Though a defeated candidate for the Presidency, Gen, Scott had o claim to be considersd 3 statesman, or even & politician. He owsd such political prominence as he at- | tained entirely to his military successes. He wasan “old Whig," according to his own showing, though he had holy hatred of Abelitionists, and with all bis star- ling patriotism be had no sympathy with the Republicss | party. In the election of 1360 ho sided with the Bellaud | Everett faction. The General was & magnificent man physically, of almost gizantic stature, powerful and well proportioned | frame, and dignified aspoct. His stately manzers inclined pow and then toward pomposity, avd his ackuowlodged greatuess in his own profession made him often iatolaranty but hie was universally respacted for his sterliug virtuss no f less thau for his public scrvices. He spoke his mind s | treely about people he disliked that he had enemies overy- where, but private feuds will nover be able to displace him from the exalted position be holds in the rospect and gratitude of the American people, Gen. Seott was married in 1816 to Miss Maria Mayo of Richmond, Va., who died iz Rome tn 1862, Tuere were seven children by this marriage, of whom thres daughtars, wo believe, are still living. —_— Obituary.
