SCOTT'S PREDICTION.
His Timely Adviea to the President.
The \\ ashington Intelligencer publishes
the views of Gen. Scott upon Secession,
written October "J9, ISGO.
• ien. Scoic expresses iiis political senti
ments as sympathizing with the Bell and
Everett ticket, but he does not apprehend
any unconstitutional violence or breach, of
law from the administration ol Mr. Liu
euln.
lie advises the prompt garrisoning of all
Southern forts, and says with the army
faithful to its allegiance, and the navy prob
ably equally so, and with ;; h 'er :I oxoeu
five for the next twelve mouths, of firm
ness and moderation, which the country
has a right to expect moderation being an
element nf power not less than firnncss—
there is good reason to hope that the dan
ger of Seeessicn tiny be made to jvus> awa\
witliout one conflict of arms, one cxecn |
tion, or one arrest tor treason. Of the
Federal property in the South lie said :
" From a knowledge of our Southern pap
ulation, it is my sole it a conviction that there
is some danger of an early ad of rashness
preliminary tu St cession, viz: a seizure of
some or ail of the following p >sfs: Forts
Jackson and St. Phillips, on the Mississippi,
below New Oileans, both with iut garrisons,
Fort Morgan, below M ibile, without a garri
son; Forts Pickens and Mdiae, in Pcnsacoia
Harbor, with an insufficient garrison for one;
Fort Pulaski, below Savannah, without a gar
sison; Forts Moultrie and Sumter, Charleston
harbor, the former with an insufficient garri
son, and the latter without any; an 1 Fort j
Monroe, Hampton Roads, without a sufficient
garrison.
•* In n>y opinion, all these icorks should l>- ;
immediately so garrisoned as to make any at !
tem [it to take any one of them by surprise i r |
coup de main, ridiculous."
These sentiments, expressed before the
.Presidential election, and before Secession
was looked upon as very probable, are par
ticularly interesting at the present crisis,
and give to the country an idea ol Gen.
Scott's sentiments upon this important sub
ject.
Had Mr. Buchanan followed the advice
of the greatest captain of the age —(who \
in 1822 went through this whole contro- j
vcrsy at Charleston, and is a good judged j
general as well as military matters) —all j
our great Forts, commanding the principal j
-commercial cities would have been preserv- !
ed, and Secession would have been ufi'ectu- j
ally checked. The EVIL which men do, |
lives after them."
Huntingdon American, in noti- j
ring the recent burning o; a mail car near j
that place, says:
•' Bright and early t>n the f-flowing (Tours'
day) morning, "Young Anmrii a" from this
place, started on a prospecting trip to the
scene of the casualty. From an eye witness j
we have a ludicrous account of the proceed
ings. AVith an eagerness that would have j
d >rie credit to an office seeker, they raked and 1
routed among the ruins, their efforts often j
proving highly successful in "finding things." j
Letters containing money were sometimes |
found half consumed. In one case, an epistle i
containing twenty dollar bills and one five j
dollar bill, was picked up, burned squarely in [
half, leaving the half of every note perfectly ;
legible. Of course, there were love letters, 1
business letters, duns, newspapers, etc. —all j
so burned as to be rendered almost uninti lli- i
gible. One youth found a letter containing |
nine one dollar bills; another, five half c-a- I
gles run together; another, a lump of gold ;
dollars; .and five, ten and twenty dollar pie- ;
ces, and a large amount of silver coin were |
found, most of which were half melted or ve- i
r, much blackened. A colored boy was the j
finder of a check on a Philadelphia bank for ;
$1000; another individual scraped up part of
a gold watch, the heat having melted thebal
anee. Besides these articles, almost every
youth was the finder of small particles of
gold."
A Veteran. —There resides in Shirley town
ship an old man named Ephraira Ilockenbcr |
ry, who saw George Washington on several
occasions—at Stony Point, Philadelphia, and
several othher places. He is eighty-eight
years of age, and in indigent circumstances.
There are very few men living now who have j
seen the "Father of his Couutry." Sixty
years have now elapsed since his death.—
soon there will be none to say—"l have 6een j
Was a ington."— Sh irleysbu ry Herald.
HafOn the 2d inst., the house of James
Gilb land, of Springfield township, was
urned with most of its contents, and also
th house of Mr. Joshua Johns. It appears !
"hey were baking some cakes at Mr. Gille-
Hnd's, and in heating the stove, the flue
caught fire and bursted, whereupon the whole
was consumed. They then took the cakes
over to Mr. Johns', and in heating the stove,
the house also caught and was burned. Thus '
in baking one lot of cakes, two houses were j
consumed.— Shirleyslmry Herald.
COSTAR'S IIAT EXTERMINATOR. —We
had occasion a week or two ago to use this
remedy, and siuce then have not a rai about
the house. Its effect wa> like magic, and
we therefore confidently recommend it to
our readers who are annoyed with these
pests as preferable to arsenic or anything
else heretofore used. A box contains suf
