    AN IMPORTANT LETTER.
Gen, Scott's Views on the Rebellion,
What he had to Contend with During
Buchanan's Administration
RIB ADVICE NOT NEEDED
The Washington NiVionat Inteltigen
cer of Oct. 22d, in giving publicity to
the following opinions of General Scott,
precedes them by the following edito
rial comments-
Early in the last year, when civil
war seemed impending, but had not
actually broken out, Gen. Scott, then
at the head of the army, wrote two
papers containing his views, profes
sional and political, on the crisis, and
the rights and duties which devolved
on the Government in the momentous
conjuncture. These two papers were
subsequently lent to many friends to
read, and one of them has recently
been published, without the writer's
consent, evidently for a party purpose.
As the illustrious Old Warrior profes
ses to belong to no party, other than
that of the National Ildion, he has
deemed it proper to give to the public
himself the second of the papers re
ferred to, lest it also might find its un
authorized way into print. Ile has,
therefore, forwarded it to us for inser
tion in the National intelligencer, hav
ing added to it a few explanatory
" notes," which the lapse of time seem
ed to render proper,
The paper now submitted to the
public by Gen. Scott, throws a flood
of light on the history of the rebellion
in its incipient stages, and will inspire
every reader with deep interest. It
establishes, in the first place, the pa-
anxiety of the wise and watch
ful General-in-Chief to prepare for the
coming storm, and his earnest and re
peated efforts to prevail on the govern
ment to garrison and secure the south
ern forts against every possible attack;
and it discloses, in the second place,
the causes of his failure, which, it is
now evident, resulted from the indeci
sion of the Executive. misled doubtless
by treachery in the Secretary of War,
it' not in other members. of the Cabinet,
in whom the head of the Government
reposed a misplaced and abused confi
dence. This paper, we may add, must
have the effect, with every candid
mind, of vindicaking the character of
die illustrious veteran General himself
from imputations with which he has
been recently assailed by presses whose
.standard of merits is regulated only
Jay party tests.
SOUTHERN FORTS-A SUM3IARY, SC
October 20, 1860, I emphatically
.called the attention of the President
to the necessity of strong garrisons in
.Itll the forts below the principal com
mercial cities of the Southern States,
including, by name, the forts in Pen
sacola harbor. October 31, I suggest
ed to the Secretary of War that a cir
cular should be sent at once to such of
'those forts as had garrisons to be on
the alert against surprises and sudden
assaults. (See my " Views," since
printed.)
After a long confinement to my bed,
in New York, I came to this city
(Washington) December 12. Next
day I personally urged upon the Sec
retary of War the same views, viz :
strong garrisons in the Southern forts
—those of Charleston mid Pensacola
harbors at once; those on Mobile
Bay and the :Mississippi, below
New Orleans, next, &c.,
again pointed out the organiz
.ed companies and the recruits at
- the principal depots available for the
purpose. The Secretary did not con
cur in any of my views, when I begged
him to procure for me an early inter
view with the President, that I might
make one effort more to save the forts
and the Union.
By appointment, the Secretary ac
companied me to the President, De
cember 15, when the same topics, Se
cessionism, &e., were again pretty fully
discussed. There being at the moment
[in the opinion of the President] no
danger of' an early Secession, beyond
South Carolina, the President, in reply
to my arguments for immediately re
inforcing Fort Moultrie and sending a
garrison to Fort Sumpter, said :
" The time has not arrived for doing
so; that he should wait the action of
the Convention of South Carolina, in
the expectation that a commission
would be appointed and sent to nego
tiate with him and Congress respecting
I he Secession of the State and the pro
perty of the United States held with
in its limits; and that if Congress
should decide against the Secession.
then he would send a reinforcement,
and telegraph the commanding otli,?er
(Major Anderson) of Fort Moultrie, to
hold the forts (Moultrie and Sumpter)
against attack."
And the Secretary, with animation,
.added:
"We have a vessel-of-war (the
Brooklyn) held in readiness at Norfolk,
and he would then send three hundred
men in her from Fort Monroe to
Charleston."
To which I replied, first, that so ma
ny men could not be withdrawn from
that garrison, but could be taken from
New York. Next, thlit it would then
lie too late, as the South Carolina com
missioners would have the same in
their hands, by first using and then
,cutting the wires ; that as there was
alot a soldier in Fort Sumpter, any
ilandful of armed Secessionists might
seize and occupy it, &c.
Here the remark may be permitted,
that if the Secretary's three hundred
men had then, or some time later, been
sent to Forts Moultrie and Sumpter,
both would now have been in the pos
'session of the United States, and not a
; battery below them could have been
erected by the Secessionists; conse
quently the access to those forts from
the sea would now (the end of March)
be unobstructed and free.*
The same, day, December 15, I wrote
the foliowing note :
Lieut. Gen. Scott begs the Presi
dent to pardon him for supplying, in
this note, what be omitted to say this
morning at the interview with which
he was honored by the President.
" Long prior to the force bill (March
2,1833) prior to ,be issue of his proc
lamation, and in part prior to the pas
sage of the ordinance of nullification,
President Jackson, under the act of
larch 3, 107, authorizing the em
ployment of the land and naval forces,'
caused reinforcements to be sent to Ft.
Moultrie, and a sloop of war, (the
Natchez,) with two revenue cutters, to
k: sent to Charleston harbor, in order.
1, to prevent the seizure of that fort
by the nullifiers, and 2, to enforce the
execution of the revenue Gen.
Scott himself arrived at 'iimieston the
day after the passage of the ordinance
of nullification and many of the addi
tional companies were then cu routs
for the same destination.
"President Jackson familiarly
at the time that, by the asselittd.tg,t
of those forces, for lawful purposes, he
was not making war upon South Car
olina ; but that if South Carolina at
tacked them it would be South Caro
lina that made war upon the United
States.'
"General S., who received his first
instructions (oral) from the President,
in the temporary absence of the Secre
tary of War (General Cuss), remembers
those expressions well.
" Saturday night, Dcc. 15, 1860."
DECEMBER 28.—Again, after Major
Anderson had gallantly and wisely
thrown his handfid of men from Fort
Moultrie into Fort Sumpter—learning
that, on demand of South Carolina,
there was great danger he might be
ordered by the Secretary back to the
less tenable work, or out of the harbor
—I wrote this note :
"Lieutenant General Scott (who
has bad a bad night, and can scarcely
hold up his head this morning,) begs
to express the hope to the Secretary
o f Way :—L. That orders may not be
jive,; for ;he evacuation of Ft. Sump
ter. 2. That one hundred and fifty
recru its may - instantly be sent from
Governor's Isla.:d to reinforce that
garrison, with arucle t7lMPlies of
ammunition and stthsistencd, in
cluding fresh vegetables, as pO
- onions, turnips; and, 3. That
one or two mined vessels be sent to
support the said Fort.
" Lieut. General S. avails himself
of this opportunity also to express the
hope that the recommendations here
tofore made by him to the Secretary
of War respecting Forts Jackson, St.
Philip Morgan, and Pulaski, and par
ticularly in respect to Fort Pickens
and Mcßae, and the Pensacola Navy
Yard, in connection with the last two
named works, may be re-considered
by the Secretary.
" Lieutenant General S. will fur
ther ask the attention of the Secreta
ry to Forts Jefferson and Taylor,
which are wholly national, being of
far greater value even to the most
distant points- of the Atlantic coast
and the people on the upper waters of
the Missouri, Mississippi and Ohio riv
ers, than to the State of Florida.—
There is only a feeble company at
Key West for the defence of Ft. Tay
lor, and not a soldier in Port Jefferson
to resist a handfull of filibusters, or a
row boat of pirates; and the Gulf, soon
after the beginning of secession or
revolutionary troubles in the adjacent
States, will swarm with such nuisan
ces." -I
DECEMBER, 30.—1 addressed the
President again as follows:
" Lieutenant Genera/ Scott begs the
President of the United States to par
don the irregularity of this coin inani
cation. It is Sunday, the weather is
bad, and General S. is not well enough
to go to church.
"But matters of the highest, nation
al importance seem to forbid a nio
ment's delay, and if misled by zeal, he
hopes for the President's forgiveness.
" Will the President permit General
S., without reference to the War De
partment, and otherwise as secretly
as possible, to send two hundred and
fifty recruits from New York harbor,
to reinforce Fort Sumpter, together
with some extra muskets or rifles, am
munition and subsistence?
" It is hoped that a sloop-of-war and
cutter may be ordered for the same
purpose as early as to-morrow.
"General S. will wait upon the
President at any moment lie may be
called for."
The South Carolina Commissioners
had already been many days in Wash
ington, and no movement :of defence
(on the part of the United States) was
permitted.
I will here close my notice of Fort
Sumpter by quoting from some of my
previous reports.
It would have been easy to rein
force this fort down to about the 12th
of February. In this long delay Fort
Moultrie had been rearmed and great
ly strengthened in every way by the
rebels. Many powerful new land bat
teries (beside a formidable raft) had
been constructed. Hulks, too have
been sunk in the principal channel, so
as to render access to Fort Sumpter
from the sea impracticable, without
first carrying all the lower batteries
of the secessionists. The difficulty of
reinforcing has thus been increased
ten or twelve fold. First, the late
President refused to allow any at
tempt to be made, because he was
holding negotiations with the South
Carolina commissioners.
Afterwards, Secretary _Holt and my
self endeavored, in vain, to obtain a
ship-of-war for the purpose, and were
filially obliged to employ the passen
ger steamer " Star of the West."—
That vessel, but for the hesitation of
the master, might, as is generally be
lieved, delivered at the fort the men
and subsistence on board. This at
tempt at succor failing, I next verbally
submitted to the late Cabinet either
that succor be sent by ships-of-war,
fighting their way by the batteries,
(increasing in strength daily) or that
Major Anderson should be left to ame
liorate his condition by the muzzles of
his guns—that is, enforcing supplies
by bombardment and by bringing to
merchant vessels, helping himself,
(giving orders for payment) or finally
be all)wed to evacuate the fort, which
in that ease, would be inevitable.
But, before any resolution was ta
ken, the late Secretary of the navy
making difficulties about the want of
suitable war vessels, another commis
sioner from South Carolina arrived
causing further delay. When this had
passed away, Secretaries Holt and
Toucey, Captain Ward, of the navy,
and myself, with the knowledge of
the President (Buchanan) settled up
on the employment, under the Captain
(who was eager for the expedition),
of three or four small steamers belong
ing to the Coast Survey. At that time
(late in January,) I have but little
doubt that Captain Ward would have
reached Port Sumpter with all his
vessels. But he was kept back by
something like a truce or armistice,
[made here] embracing Charleston and
' Pensacola harbors, agreed upon be
tween the late President and certain
principal seceders of South parolina,
Florida, Louisiana, &c., and this truce
lasted to the cad of that administration.
That plan and all others, without a
squadron of war ships and a consider
able army—competent to take and
hold the many formidable batteries
below Fort Sumpter, and before the
e:diaustion of its subsistence—having
li,sen pronounced, from the change of
circumstances impracticable, by Maj.
Anderson, Captain Foster, (Chief En ,
gineer) and all the other °Moors of
the Fort, as well as by Brigadier Gen.
Totten, Chief of the corps of Engi.
neers ; and, concurring in that opin
ion, I did not hesitate to advise,
(March 12th) that Major Anderson be
instructed to evacuate the fort, so long
held by him and his companions,
mediately on procuring suitable trans
portation to take them to New York.
His relative weakness had steadily in
creased in the last eighteen days.
It was not till January 3d (when
the first commissioners from South
Carolina withdrew) that the permis
sion I had solicited October 31st, was
obtained to admonish commanders of
the few Southern forts with garrisons,
to be on the alert against surprises
and sudden assaults. (Major Ander
son was not among::: the admonished,
being already straitly beleagured.)
JANUARY 3d.—To Lieutenant Sim
mer, commanding in Pensacola har
bor :
" The General-in-Chief directs that
you take measures to do the utmost in
your power to prevent the seizure of
either of the forts in Pensacola harbor,
by surprises or assault, consulting first
with the commander of the navy-yard,
who will probably have received in
structions to co-operate with you."—
[This order was signed by Aide-de-
Cqmp Lay.]
It "as just before the surrender of
the Pens.?cola navy-yard [January 12]
that Lice. ten.? nt Slemmer, calling upon
Commodore Arinstrong, obtained the
aid of some thirty common seamen or
laborers, but no nzarines, which, add
ed to his forty-six so:diers, rondo up
his numbers to seventy-sLZ men, with
whom this meritorious officer has since
held Fort Pickens, and performed,
working night and day, an immense
amount of labor in mounting guns,
keeping up a strong guard, etc., etc.
Early in January I renewed, as has
been seen, my solicitations to be al
lowed to reinforce Fort Pickens, but a
good deal of time was lost in vacilla
tions. First, the President "thought
that if no movement is made by the
United States Fort Mcßae will proba
bly not be occupied nor Fort Pickens
attacked. In case of movements by
the United States, which will doubt
less be made known by the wires,
there will be corresponding local move
ments, and the attempt to reinforce be
useless." (Quotation from a note made by
Aid -de-Camp Lay, about January 12,
of the President's reply to a message from
me) Next, it was doubted whether it
would be safe to send reinforcements
in an unarmed steamer, and the want,
as usual, of a suitable naval vessel—
the Brooklyn being long held in re
serve at Norfolk for some purpose un
known to me. Finally, after I had
kept a body of three hundred recruits
in New York harbor ready for sow
time—and they would have been suffi
cient to reinforce temporarilly Ft. Pick:
ens and occupy Fort Mcßae also—the
President, about January 18, permitted
that the sloop-of-war Brooklyn should
take a single company ninety men,
from Fort Monroe, ii,mipton Roads,
and reinforce Lieutenant - Slenimor, in
Fort Pickens, but without a surpiu,
man for the nei , :hboring Fort Mcßae.
The Brooklyn, with Capt. Vogdes'
company alone left the Chesapcak for
Fort Pickens about January 22d, and ;
on the 29th, President Buchanan, hNV
ing entered into a quasi armistice with
certain leading Seceders at Pensacola
and elsewhere, caused Secretaries Holt
and Toucey to instruct in a joint note,
the commander of the war vessels off
Pensacola and Lieutenant Simmer,
commanding Fort Pickens, to commit
no act of hostility, and not to land
Captain Vogdes' company unless that
fort should be attacked .t
[That joint note I never saw until
March 25th, but supposed the armis
tice was consequent upon the meeting
of the Peace Convention at Washing
ton, and was understood to terminate
with it.]
Hearing however, of the-most active
preparations for hostilities on the part
of the Seceders at Pensacola, by the
erection of new batteries and arming
Fort Mcßae—that had not a gun moun
ted when it was seized—during the
Peace Convention and since, I brought
the subject to the notice of the new Ad
ministration, when this note, dated
March 12th, to Captain Vogdes, was
agreed upon. viz : " At the first favor
able moment you will land with your
company, reinforce Fort Pickens and
hold the same, till furtherorders." The
order, in duplicate, left New York by
two naval vessels about the middle of
March as the mail and wires could not
be trusted, and detached officers could
not be substituted, for two had already
been arrested and paroled by the au
thorities of Pensacola, despatches taken
from ono of them, and a third, to es
cape like treatment, forced to turn
his back when near that city. That
those authorities have not ceased to
make war upon the United States
since the capture by them of the navy
yard, Janu-ary 12th.
Respectfully submitted,
WINFIELD SCOTT.

"'The plan invented by Gen. Scott
to stop Secession was, like all cam
paigns devised by him, very able in
its details and nearly certain of gen
eral success. The Southern States arc
full of arsenals and forts commanding
their rivers and strategic points. Gen.
Scott desired to transfer the army of
the United States to these forts as spee
dily and as quietly as possible. The
Southern States could not eat oft com
munications between the Government
and the fortresses without a great fleet,
which they cannot build for years, or
take them by land without one hun
dred thousand men, many hundred
millions of dollars, several campaigns,
and many a bloody seige. Had Scott
been able to have got those forts in
the condition ho desired them to be,
the Southern Confederacy Nyq ti id not
now exist."—Part of the eulogy pro
non»ced on Secretary Floyd (who de
feated Scott's plans) by the Richmond Er
ambler, on Floyd's reception at that
city.
t It was not till January 4th that,
by the aid of Secretary Holt [a strong
t , ,nd loyal mall I obtained porinifision
to send succor to the feeble garrison
of Fort Taylor, Key West, and at the
same time a company—Major Arri-
OhrS, from Boston—to occupy Vt. Jef
ferson, Tortugas Island. It this com
pany ad been throe days later, the
fort would have been pre-occupied by
Floridians. ft is known that the reb
els had their eyes upon those powerful
thrts, which govern the commerce of
the Mexican Gulf, as Gibraltar and
Malta govern that of the 'Mediterrane

the rebels might have purchased ear
ly European recognition.
llt was known at the Navy De
partment that the Brooklyn, with
Captain Vogdes on board, would be
obliged in open sea to stand off and on
Fort Pickens, and in rough weather
might sometimes be fifty miles off.—
Indeed, if ten miles at sea, the fort
might have been attacked and easily
carried before the reinforcement could
have reached the beach, in open sea,
