Such enthusiasm as tins wa hopo will not be shown by the Democratic party hi any lime' during the campaign. Enthusiasm for hearing Scoll epechos at Lundy’s Lane, or rather at Niag ra, did not appear to be in Voguol Whbnover any of the orators took the slump, the people took , to seeking various kinds of amuaomontn, which In* deed appeared to bo Me object of their visit. They were too resiless to listen to any Whig sophistry. Occasionally a cheer would go up for Scott and Graham, which was, almost uniformly answered by as load a one for Pierce and King. ’ The ban quet came off at various little stands, scattered through the woods, in the shape of cold pies, gin ger cakes, ginger pop, and brandy smashes. A great demonstration was that same row.! Many asked the question why is Gen, Scott called “the. hero" of Lundy’s Lanel It was'bard to-answer, for he was not the commander , Major Genera! Brown was at the head of (ho American troops, and many other officers behaved with equal, if not greater gallantry; among them was Major Jessup, Col. Millor, and Col, Brady. It is not justice to these brave heroes to give the title of honor solely to one, and that one a subordinate officer. WIfAT DOBS IT MEAN t Nearly all of the' independent and commercial journals in the North, sh'ow a strong* ppetyrenco for the Democratic nominees, Pierce and Kino, and are almost openly opposing the election of Gen. Scott. In 1844 they were !y to the election of Mr. Polk, and M.r« PpiAt/wli' elected. In 1848 they were nearly all, If, not all, in favor of the election of Gen. Taylot, and ho was elected; and as they are now equally as strong ly arrayed on the side of “the gallant Pierce, ” it is a favorable sign for the success of the Democra tic party. In Boston, not only the Independent and commercial, but many of the Whig papers, are opposed to Gen. Soorr, and tho “Mias," is al most his only advocate. In New York, and many other places, the same spirit prevails, and High grounds are Jaken against him op account of wrong principles, want of proper attainments, and a ge. neral want of the Characteristics of a statesman. “The New York Herald” says.tho Pittsburg./W, <> sets down the aggregate, circulation of the daily ■fliEßßjaf.New York at ope hundred a'pcf forty-five or quietly opposed to Gen. Sttn-rV'tleetion!” And yef.ihlhefaoo ofafl this,and'particularly the! commercial press advocating Gen.

This would exclude nil who.coqld not serve in the Army or Nayy from ever becoming citizens; Gen. Scott forgets that our forefathers i were ail foreigners. He declares that ho is in favor of the distribu- tion of the proceeds of the public lands—a measure fraught with corruption, and in its con sequences would make the Stales mere dependencies of the General Government. Hero are General Scott’s principles, so far as ho has seen proper to define them. Take them in connection with the fact that he refines to define his position on the Compromise measures, and that he is entirely in the hands (according to the testimony of some of the roost eminent Whigs in the United Stales,) ofSeward, Greely, Johnston, i and iho Abolition Diaunionieta, and Free Seilers 1—lake those things all together, we say, and if you can vote for Gen. Soolt, you are certainly no Democrat—no very sincere lover of union and har mony in the Government. GEN. SCOTT IN PATOU OF A BANRBCPT LAW. 'Gen. Scott declares most emphatically that he i is In favor of such a law, ami also says that “ his principles are convictions," from which, as a mat ter of course, he will not depart. t)y hU letter bf acceptance, and previous letters, we are given to understand that he will recommend his principles , and convictions “to the favorable notice of Con gress," It is hardly necessary to argue in regard 1 to the policy of a Bankrupt Law.
