hnj his last eflort a murmurred shout of vic tory. For this, I ask your votes. Lot the people give Gut one suffrage for each red drop that then zushed from his gored bosom j lU red out for them and theirs—and the iH,t of "-ratitude will, at least in part, be paid ; posterity will do the rest I have no time to follow Scott up to the period of the Mexican war. Forty years of service in camp and council have passed over him ; but the vow of the youthful en thusiast is still the rule of the hoary patriot —he is still and ever all his country's.— Glorious deeds had been done on the Rio ■ Grande aud in Northern Mexico; but the ; nation had advanced not a step towards the achievements of a peace. Gen. Scott pro- j posed a renewal of the adventurous march of j Cortez; but the scene had changed, and where the Spanish vessels had moved peace ably, the castie of San Juan now frowned defi'ance ; and, instead of friendly Tlascalans r.nd feeble Aztecs, the American General must encounter an armed and powerful em pire, a country imnresrnable by nature, skil fully fortified,* and ably and obstinately de fended. The difficulties seemed insuperable, j „nd bis project wa3 denounced as romantic madness. Napoleon once disclosed a mili tary plau to one of his staff; *it is impos sible,' said his friend. * I see no means of ;ts achievement.' Napoleon led him to a window, and pointing to the glowing midday ky, asked, 'do you see that star V 'No,' was the reply. ' I do,' said the Emperor, and it was his only answer. General Scotr thus saw the star, hidden from feebler \isions. which was to light and guide him on his . path to glory. The Administration long withheld their sanction ; but they had no ether hope; Scott alone could save them, and at length they growlingly a.•!.— For that plan, so full of genius and wisdom, now the glory of our history and tin- wonder cf the world, and for its sole author. Wiu fielJ Scott, c'o T ask your gratitude :.ud sup- , IR . , I will not characterize that campaign— 1 cannot : but you have it—the world has it by heart. Never was tb* prescient and omprt.- }, i. iv- weight of human genius m re won derfully displayed, than by Scott in its pre- : paratiou and execution. Every difficulty \>us foreseen, every contingency provided for. : This plan was work 1 out lit' a pr ; 1 -in in . Euclid. But we cannot follow him in hi-, eagle flight fr..m the surf of the g t;T, to tie* bowed towers of Vera Cruz, and tie- start led cliffs of G -rro Gordo, from m'nude to miracle, from victory t<> victory, over con quered impossibilities, and crushed thousands to the captured capital. But yon will re member the universal anxiety felt here, at home, when he descended into the Valley of Mexico, when, his communications destroyed, his army disappeared among enemies ten fold its superior in all save courage and con duct. Weeks and weeks elapsed, and not a word was heard of them. The suspense grew agonizing. We watched—as friends watch the dark waves in which a daring di- ; ver has plunged, but from which he doe- not j emerge. White lips whispered, 'ls he Kt? Has he perished?' And the response was, ' How can it be otherwise, with a force so in- i adequate, against a foe so formidable ?' At length, when overwrought terror became de spair, the tidings burst upon us—a torrent of glory. Contreras, Churubuseo, aud Molinodel Rey. were won, and how fluttered our flags, how blazed our hon-fires, and how uprose our shouts, again and again, when we learned ihat our noble army bivouaked in the plaza of the capital and beneath the stars and stripes, as they waved above the triumphs of Ooitez. stood Winlield S;-ott, the laurelled conqueror of Mexico. 1 stand beneath that banner now—a brighter glory has ever since gleamed from its stars; and pointing to those fields of fame, I ask, in the name, and , by the authority of those achievements, im cqualled in grandeur and glory, I ask your votes for General Scott. It is impossible briefly to sketch that cam paign. Its battles are so many and glorious, that tliey mingle their light, as the stars 1 which from the galaxy melt together and east 1 a stream of glory across the heavens. But this is Churubusco's day ; and the nation, in i 1 all time, "Will stand a tip-toe when this day is named." Instead of one battle, its achievements ( comprise five distinct battles, and five illu— i trious victories. Time itself looks back upon . no such one day. Our army was but 8,:10b j strong, and was engaged hotly, on foot and I | horseback, in the open field and before the ; -tr.mgest fortifications, witli 32,000 men. well • disciplined, armed and commanded. It j made 3 1 •)*) prisoners, and killed and woun led 4000 of the enemy. Any one of those live t victories, brilliants gloriously strung together ( aud radiantly bound upon the fair brow of I < our country —any one would have struck the world with wonder; together they stag- , ger credulity, and raise a monument to j American heroism that will stand till our . mountains melt into the plain. We meet to ] celebrate that victory of victories, and we ] cannot forget the patriot hero to whom we t owe it, who never doubted and never erred, t. who never stumbled and never fainted, 'the ; noble nature,' (I quote the poet literally :) " AY Loin passion could nut shake : whose solid virtue : The shot of accident, nor dart of chance i Could neither grace nor Pierce." '' Had the life of Scott known but that on day of glory, for that alone I would ask, and 1 you could not, in justice and gratitude, deny 1 your suffrages. And how were these serv ices, countless and Inestimable, rewarded ? Who does not blush ' over the pages of that history ? The veteran soldier tvn - stripped of the command of that army he had led in triumph—was accused ' and treated as a malefactor, and was dragged ' in a shameful trial for the high offence—it ' -.TOO only one—of having covered his country j with glory. And what did the hero—at the ' head cf a victorious and devoted army—un- • ' dor this unprecedented outrage and wrong? j 1 Lion like to the foe, hi? was meek and lowly ' to the laws and authorities of his country, j The magnanimity of Agesilaus, of Hannibal ' and ot Belituarius, in bowing to a harsh 1 authority and resigning a career of glory, ' * lias been applauded to the echo ; but even ' more Illustrious was the noble submission of ' our own great-hearted patriot, for his was a ' deeper and darker wrong. His example of 1 deference to the law is more glorious and of 1 more substantial value than even his victories ' —and it is for you to reward it. The cruelty ( 'of thai deliberate wrong to proud and lofty 1 innocence, it is yours to redress; the re proach of that base ingratitude to a national benefactor, it is yours to wipe away. And therefore do I ask your votes for Winfield Scott. . _ ! ' Pending that persecution, Scott was visited by a temptation which who but Scott would < have refused? The people of Mexico, appre ciating the virtues even of a foe, offered him < a million and a quarter of dollars in cash and the dr f mf.gi-tmcy cf the country. They • xua no wrung to his own government. 1 GOTO. Porter had established a precedent of acceptance. Gen. Scott was persecuted his life-long devotion rewarded with disgrace— this would redress him. Like Aristides, his probity in office had kept him poor —this would enrich him. Ilis foes had stripped him of his station —this would confer a lofti ier onc — a place among princes. Of course he accepted tiu offer so brilliant. Why should he not? Far from it. He at least hesitated. ; Not a moment. "My life," such was his sublime answer. " belongs to my country. I would rather be her humblest servant than the monarch of earth's richest empire.— Discarded, I will stick to her; persecuted, wronged, requited with contumely and dis grace, it will be my glory to love and cherish her; to serve and suffer, to live and die. for her." Is not this man worthy of your votes? Would you be worthy of bim if you denied them ? For this I ask your suffrage. Glorious as ha 3 been his military career, the civil life and services of Scott equally • claim your admiration and gratitude. He is, and ever has been, the friend and advocate of peace. His letter to the Peace Convention j avows his opposition to unnecessary war, and his life approves that profession. You re member theCanadarebellion. Our neighbors i struck for independence—a cause to which American hearts must give a throb and thrill of sympathy. That sympathy was met by British arrogance, and an American boat was fired, by an invading soldiery, in an Ameri can port, and sent, while the flames rose above the bodies of the slaughtered Ameri- j cans, down the Niagara, and over the cata ract. The war spirit on the frontier shot up like a bale fire. Cidlision seemed inevitable. What politician, what diplomatist was then , found adequate to the crisis? Scott alone i was considered, bv a Democratic administra tion, capable of averting ihe storm. He did nv-r t 'i. W ifhont army, without aid. singly, l.y dint of his own wi dom and eloquence, he -cv'-d tie* country froju a war which, had it i oir. -, would have si rained lit r cv. ry nerve to cracking, and made her every poro sweat blood.

And again lie averted the con flict. extorting by his talents and his triumph, th" applause of all parties, and confirming in both countries his title as THE CHEAT PACIFI CATOR. In this character, as the Apostle of Peace, and fur these services, do 1 ask your votes for General Scott. The time honored patriot claims vonr rev erence as the champion of the Union, its ear liest, steadiest and stauuehest. No spot of the nation, no North, no South, no East, no West, can claim him as its own. His patriotic , life has been spread, like sunlight, all over the i iand lie has loved, and served it long and well. In his youth, when the North plotted I treason at Hartford, he shamed the malecon- ; tent spirit back to its den, by the glory of" his victories on the line. In after years, when the South renewed the dark example, at Charleston, with nullification, lie was again interposed to save the Union. The patriot Jackson was then at the head of the Govern ment ; and in that dark hour, for it was as dark as another night piled upon midnight, where did she look for one whose loft}', civil and military qualities and devoted patriotism he could trust to avert fraternal wars? (>ur j land has many great men ; but his sagacity directed him to Scott. lie sent him to the scene of excitement and danger: and with his giant hand upon the helm all was safe. The first intellects of the nation united in ap plauding liis invaluable services; and the: magnanimous Ja -kson. through the Secretary 1 of War, Gen. Cass, expressed his high adnii- j ration and acknowledged hi- profound graii- ( tude and that of the country. Will any dem ocrat deny the merit which Jackson applaud ed ? or withhold the gratitude lie bestowed? j 1 nder the sanction then, of the great name of Andrew Jackson, I ask your votes for ' General Scott. And in the last peril of the Union, where was Scott ? Earliest bv the side of its noblest defender, the illustrious Henry Clav—('lav,! whose pure and mighty spirit, when it had achieved it< last and lofth -,t triumph, bore on < high to Washington the proud triumph that , his country was saved. By the side of Clay S'-ott labored earn stly and effectively, day ' and night, for the compromise, and when it 1 had passed, lie received, for his early, ardent < and constant championship, the grateful thanks of the departing patriot. For that devotion to the I nion which merited and won (.'lay's admiration and gratitude, I ask yours. Such has been the entire career of Scott— ever the friend of peace, of union, of human ity. Our greatest warrior is our calmest sag;e. Our bravest hero i- the greatest, most humane of men, one who would not win the laurels that hid the bald first Oiesar's brow at the price of one unnecessary tear. That spirit made hint the father of his soldiers, and even the pitying friend of a conquered j 1 foe. Witness the cholera scenes in the camp • at Chicago, when pestilence smote the army and those who braved death at the cannon's mouth, fled appalled from this new horror, i 1 Scott was their General, not their surgeon; of - i ourse he retired to safer quarters, aud left i the sick and the dying to the care of those provided for the duty, lie was incapable of j the thought. lat us look in upon one of the ' scenes then so frightfully common. On the | naked floor of one of the army huts is stretched a dying soldier, deserted by all, save one, for it is the saturnalia of death— j t death in the betid air—death in the shrieks of the convulsed sufferers— death in the fixed t distortions of those who have ceased to suf fer ; yet there, in that scene of accumulated horrors, a tall form bends over the dying sol- \ dier, holds the cup to his ashy lips, and ut- 'j tern words of kindness in tones of cheerful J consolation. It is too late : the sufferer gives to his ministering friend a last, sad message j for his distant family, grasps his hand, looks j up with earnest gratitude, breathes a feeble j ' blessing upon his benefactor, and sinks back, never again to Vie aroused till called up by the j last reveille. Now, what holy enthusiast, so- : licitous for Martrydom, is he who thus labors j under th" dark shadow of the wings of pesti- j lence ? Name him, that we may bless him. : It is the youth that vowed himself to his countre ; it is the In TO whose red bosom J pressed the sod of Lundy's Lane ; it is the veteran who swept over the battle fields of ( - lexico Tit is the next I'resident of the United j "tales—Winfield Boott.

The Whig Ticket. The whig county convention, which assem bled in the Town liall on Monday last, having . duly weighed what they believed to be the in ; terest of the party in the ensuing campaign, deemed it their duty to nominate a full ticket ■ for State and county officers. In the per j formance of the task, they accordingly brought into the field men fresh from the ' ranks of the people," who had no aspirations i to office, and who had taken neither lot nor part in bringing about such a result—the nominees being ail sterling farmers, of unex | ceptionable character, and we must say, j without meaning any disparagement to oth i ers, that few tickets have ever been presented ; for popular suftVage by any party in this • countv, more deserving to be placed in the - 1 posts for which they have been named. No combination of faction was brought into play here—no rival interests clashed to mar that cool deliberation essentially necessary in a matter of so much importance—no "heading off" of candidates was required so as to make a choice accidental—but the delegates con j sidered well, and Wi.en the work was done, it was at once pronounced "to tie well done." AUGUSTINE V.'AKEFIEL J, the candidate for Assembly, is well known throughout the county, and in his immediate neighborhood possesses an unusual degree of personal pop ularity which cannot fail to t
ith such a ticket the wliigs deserve suc cess, and we believe if they ( { u not succeed it will be their own fault. On the surface our opponents appear united, but until we see oil and water freely commingle, we shall enter tain strong doubts of that harmony said to exist among them. Be that however as it , may, we hope all good whigs will at once lav aside all private bickerings and go to work in earnest. As we before said, there is not a ( man on the ticket who directly or indirectly sought a nomination, and even if private ob- i jections exist, though we know of none, they 1 are entitled, under the circumstances, to an energetic support of every v. hig and indepen dent voter in the county. It is only by such 1 a course we can ever hope to succeed, for any ' other would not only be suicidal, hut both simple and foolish. <••• ( TEMPER ANCE. — The citizens of Centre coun ty, favorable to the Maine law, lately held a ' meeting, at which it was resolved to address j the locofoco nominee for tin legislature as to ( his views on the subject. A committee was 1 accordingly appointed, who sent a note to Mr. ' Foster, the nominee, notifying him of their appointment and making the inquiry whether he would vote for such a law. To this he re plied that he would not, unless it contained " a clause submitting it to a direct vote of the people prior to taking effect." This answer 1 the committee deemed unsatisfactory, as the Supreme Court has decided such a clause to | be unconstitutional and void, and having been | empowered to do so, they placed in nomina- i tion N. J. MITCHELL, of Bellefonte, as a can- 1 dida'to for the Legislature. ; i Ihe son of Henry Clay, a few weeks ago, 1 denied over his signature that his father bad j expressed any dissatisfaction at Gen. Scott's nomination, or of Gen. Seott himself, and al- ' leged besides that he was at the bedside of the dying statesman for weeks previous to his , death and never heard him express any such ' opinions to any one—yet the Aurora repub lishes the exploded story that Mr. Clay had , made such statements to his sou and others, j ♦ EDITORIAL OLE A PODRIDA.

Jr.. has beers nominated by the locofocos of Philadelphia city and county for Sheriff. Kline, a poor man, and always j a hardworking locofoco, was also a candidate, hut Peters had the most money while Kline had the most merit. The great" locofoco meeting in Reading by all accounts turned out as our neighbor some weeks since hoped all such meetings would, a mere fizzle. The fare on the rail roads was reduced to eptarler price, bur except , Philadelphia, but few took advantage of it. The whole thing was nothing more than an , ordinary county m< 'ting f r a place like t i berks. The remains of Mr. Mahan, whose death ! we noticed last week, were brought to dis place on Friday by J. Ard Mathews, and in- • torrod in the Catholic burying ground. Some difficulty or misunderstanding however Inn ing occurred with the sexton, we learn that a number of his friends purpose to remove his remains, as well as some members of the j family, to tire Episcopal 1 uryiog ground—for which purpose they arc now collecting funds. The junior editor of tire Democrat, in speaking of the whig county convention, says, "when we [the junior] were in our boy ho ], w remember the old henscanie out of the coop and cackled when they laid an • egg." We 1 elieve the old hens still cackle, as they did in days of yore, after laying an egg, but we can assure our neighbor that there is a great deal more cackling along the line of the canal after those old hens, the Ca nal < ommissioners. have laid their eggs, than was ever heatd from ebickenliood. The Bellefonte Whig, in speaking of the whig meeting recently held there, says: "The first address was delivered by GEORGE W. ELDER, Esq., of IX I wis town, which was list ened to with the attention which lie never fails to command, lie reviewed the various questions before the people of the State and Nation, in au able and eloquent manner, and stated some facts in relation to the corruption of tbe present Canal Board, which would be well for the tax-payers of the county to no tice." GEN. CASS AND GEN. SCOTT. —Gen. Cas- de livered a speech at New-York last week, during which he said : My friends, we have honorable contests enough with the whig party, without re storing to abuse. If three score vears and ten. which 1 have almost attained, brings with it many evil-, it brings with it also a right to give my opinion, and (with much emphasis) I will give it. (Cheers, and cries of bravo.) And that is, that I trust m> democrat, during the whole of this campaign, will resort to this unworthy mode of war fare. My friends, we are still brethren of the same great family, and the whigs are just as much interested in the prosperity of the country as you are. We are both on board the same ship, and must sink or swim j together, tCheers.) The whigs have their own articles of political faith, and so ha\. we. They believe they are right, and we be lieve they are wrong. But allow me to sav, my iriends, ihat there is a terrible propensitv to politiral abuse in the warm campaigns of this country, and a spectator of the old world, on looking around at the contending parties, and reading the party journals, would actu ally think that no man is fit to be a candi date for the presidency—unless he is the greatest rascal to be found in the countrv. (Cheers and laughter.) Well, I have no part or lot in any such compact. 1 know Gen. Scott, and L know that he is an honor able man, and that he has fought the battles of his country, and I have not a word to sav againt him. Iho General is evidently becoming too liberal for bis party, for in this State the lo cofocos think whigs are not good for anvthing but to fight in wars and pay taxes. Vermont Election.

CLAY'S CONFIDENCE IN SCOTT. —Mr. Edward Stanley related the following incident in his recent speech to the Whigs of New York: In 1839, when we were threatened with a war with England, I was with Mr. Clay on the 22(1 of February, when he met Mr. 4 an Buren, who was his private friend, though his public enemy, while it was report ed that the news ot hostilities would be heard by the very next mail. Mr. Van Buren him self was somewhat shaken—but Henry Clay said, "Sir, I have great confidence in Winfield Scott.
