DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT SARATOGA.'

POLITICS IN MARYLAND:
Death of Lieutenant General Scott.
WEST Poniu, May 29th.- Lieutenant
General Scott died at 11.05 to-day.
Lieutenant-General Winfield Scott was
bout in Petersburg, Virginia, June 13,1786,
and he was consequently in the 80th year of
bin age at the time of his death. In his
youth he studied law. In 1808 he was ap
pointed a captain of light artillery, and this
was the commencement of his military car.
hi July 1812, he was advanced to the
rank of Lieutenant Colonel, and he re
paired to the Canadian frontier, the United
states and England being then at war
He took part in the . affair at Queenstown
Heights and the battle was won under hie
direction. Fortune afterwards turned and
the battle was lost to the American% and
Scotland his command weretaken prisoners
in consequence of the refusal of, the
troops at Lewistown to cross the river.
Scott served with much distinction
throughout the war, the principal field of
his military service being in Canada. The
battles of Chippewa and Lundy's Lane
stand foremost among his achievements.
At Lundy's Lane Scott received a severe .
wound in the shoulder. He declined the
position of Secretary of War offered him,
but he accepted the appointment of Major
General.
After the war General Scott visited Eu.-
rope and had opportunities afforded him
there of studying the profession of arms in
France and Belgium. General Scott upon
his return home contributed several works
upon the military art.
During the Indian wars the General
rendered efficient service to the country,and
in 1832 he contributed towards the reduction
of the Sacs and Foxes.
General Scott was untiring-in his exer
tions during the Nullification troubles
during General Jackson's administration,
and in
, the war against the Seminole In
&ens he displayed his accustomed powers
and management.
On the Canadian lines General Scott was
called upon to prevent breaches of neu
trality during the rebellion in the Brttish
provinces in 1837, known as the " Patriot
War."
The services of General Scott during the
Mexican - war, are too well-known to need
much elaboration.
Iu 1855 the Brevet rank of Lieutenant
General was conferred upon the deceased
for meritorious services.
In 1852 General Scott was the Whig can
didate for the Presidency. He was de
feated by General Pierce, the Democratic
candidate.
At the opening of the war General Scott
felt that it was his duty to give way to a
younger man in the conduct of the great re
bellion which was then convulsing the
nation.
After the battle of Bull Run, and the ap
pointment of Major-General McClellan to
command at Washington, General Scott
was in constant conference with him, and
finally, while General McClellan was en
gaged in organizing the army, General Scott
determined to retire.
The event was deeply regretted, but
General Scott's letter to the Secretary of
War showed how imperative was repose of
body and mind to him and at a special
Cabinet council the request of the noble
veteran was granted, and General Mc-
Clellan was called to command of the army
of the Union.
General McClellan, on assuming the high
position left vacant, issued a most graceful
order, recording the event.
The order is dated Nov. 1,1861, and says
among other things:
"The army will unite, with,me in the feel
ing of regret that the weight of many years,
and the effect of .increasing infirmities; con
tracted and intensified in his country's ser
vice, should just now remove from our head
the great soldier of our nation—the hero
who, in his youth, = raised high
the reputation of his country
in the fields of Canada, which he sanctified
with his blood; who, in more mature years,
proved to the world that American skill and
valor could repeat, if not eclipse, the ex
ploits of Cortez in the land of the Monte
mimes; whose wholelife has been devoted
VI the service of his country; whose whole
efforts have been directed to uphold our
honor at the smallest sacrifice of life;—a
warrior who scorned, the selfish glories of
the battle field, when his great qualities as
a statesman could be employed more profit
ably for his country; a citizen, who,
in. his declining years, has given
to < the. i World the most shining in-.
stances of loyalty in disregard
ing all ties of birth, and clinging to the
cause of, troth and honor. Stich has
been the career of Winfield Scott,
whom it has long been - the delight of
the nation to honor as a man and a soldier.
"While we `regret his loss, there is one
`thing we oannotregret—the bright example
he has leftfor our emulation. Let us all
hope and pray that his declining years
may be passed in peace and happiness, and
that they may be cheered by the suc
cess of the country and" the cause,
he has fought for•' and loved so well.
Beyond all that, let us do nothing that can.
`cause him to blush for us. Let:no defeat of
;the army he has so long .commanded em
bitter his last years, but let our victories
illuminate the close of a life so grand.
