Lite or Gen. Scott.—Wf bare received from
- ' H. Miner & Co., a copy of this highly interest
ing biography. It is compiled from the most
■i-. . authentic reports that could bo found in the
C newspapers, and is embellished very extensively
by the Imaginings of tho compiler. The first
~ page of the green cover contains a very indiffer
eist likeness of onr fellow-citisen, Col. Diehl H
' which has been called Into the service to repre
' ■ sent Gen." Scott. So far as the Colonel is con
- earned, it is “ spurious,” and as to it being n
truthful portrait of Scott, we agree with onr
friend the Colonel, that it is extremely “flgur
' tsb,” and by no means like either of the great
- men whose names we have'mentioned. Mr,

city at present, iB that from, the -office of the
Momma - For a Aty-W tm aiter nomi '
nation "of Geh. Scott, some dirty pieces of bunt
ing, which were once intended for flogß, were
suspended'from the windows of the .offices of the
Gazelle and Journal', but the moment the Plat
form, forced upon the Whig Convention by the
Slave-holders of. the South, came on from Balti
more,** universal warfhe disgust, apathy and
’dissatisfaction Of the Whigs of Pittsburgh, that
not one of them could muster courage enough to
say, rnGaFfiSgls'there.'”- 'When the Whigs talk
about the ‘.‘fires of 1840 burning anew,” they
meaa«4n it horn ! r -We have never known so lit-
tie enthusiasm In the Whig ranks, and so muoh
' good feeling-ahd jinanimity in- the rankß-of-the
Democracy, as at the' present time. The truth,
is, Gen. BcCtt will be the worst used up man who
has ever attempted to run on the Presidential
race course. All thesoup'inoreation won’t save
him in November!
' WHY OOS’T HB RESIGN :
The Whig party has nominated os their candi
date for:the Presidency the-Commander-in.ChiefH
of the Army of the United States; Major General
Wihtield Scott. - Gen. Scott wrote a “hasty”
letter accepting that nomination; but he has not
yetresigned Mb plaoe in the Army, It is, there-,
• fore; evident that ho wishes to unite in his own
person, the', “purse end the sword,” the very,
mention of which made the Whigs go almost into
’ Spasms, a few years ago.
jfoW, we ask in all sincerity, why does not
Gen. Scott resign Mb commission in the Army,
and doff his epauletts? If he is certain of being
steeled President, as claimed by the Whigs, he
* will then receive a salary of $25,000 per annum,
«wtUh isabontfour times the compensation al
lowed him at present. Bat porhnps he wishes
-to draw the snlsry attached to both offices! ,
The honest troth ja, Gem Scott does not ex
pert to he elected President, and henoe he oon
clsdes that “a bird in the hand is worth two in
thehnsh.”"-He.wonld , ralher'draw $7,000 per
annum ont of the National Treasury, and wear
tie Ugfeather, than have the empty honor of be
ing a defeated candidate for the Presidency.
Scott is wiwb-aud knows a “hasty plate of
«rop"j#om »£!<>«> of green cheeso! He is not

oua.
Among tbe Indisposed we may mention our
friend of the QaieUe. He attended Ihe Whig
Coi
invention,: and,whilo in-Baltimore, spent most
of bis time in thecompany of .hiacoUeague of
the Journal, AtpplUg Scott soup and masticating
Graham bread. ~He supposed that the mliture
would bo wholesome, bntwnnderatand it has
quite.a contrary-effect upon. bis. system, both
i physically and politically. We are told that he
has returned home debilitated in miml as to the
A< success ofthecause.’’The soup lies heavy on
hia stomach, mid the Grahotn bread is bo indi
gestible that hia fair proportions will be wosted
away entirely before t Ue.eiection, if some chan go
is not made.
Since the return of- the editor of the Gazelle,
we look in vain over the editorial columns of that
sheet for an expression akin to the spirit that in
duced'the editor to write his “high-faluting”
letters from Baltimore. We have heaTd.nothing
'from him, since his return home, about “Whig
enthusiasm,” nor has he, as yet, made any fur
ther developments as to the coarse: ho will pur
sue on the platform. Ho has boasted. that he
and other Abolitionists cheated the South in its
l adoption, but since his return home he has been
quiet on tho subject,' aud has said nothing.
This may be produoed by a too free indulgence
in Scott soup and Graham bread, which, after
he partially recovered, produced arelapßO, which,
we ore sorry to say, has been followed by a col
lapse, and the OautU is now in a very danger
ous etnto on the soup .question. "
The Journal is in a position equally difficult,
and the most important matter it can record is
the names of distinguished Whigs who have pub
licly. declared that they will not support the
Whig nominees. AH this shows that tho party
is in a sickly condition, and we are apprehensive
that it cannot survive tho course of treatment it
-will have to undergo between the present time
and next November. Before that time it will be,
pbysiccd in a manner that will completely, pros
trato it, and it will thendie of phlebotomy, the
system of practice which the doctors of the par
ty have so long followed to reduce, tho plethorio
condition of the national treasury. We hopo,
however, that our neighbors will speedily re
cover, and that we may. again hear something
from them as to the prospects of their candi
dates. At present, a great many of their politi
cal friends consider the soup cold and insipid,
and the bread mnsty. They mast do something
to keep it in the minds of the people, that Scott
and: Graham are the Whig candidates, or the
fact will be forgotten long before the election
comes off.
ITEMS POft POMTICIANS.
' The Savannah Republican, the loading Whig
press refuses to: support-tbe.nomination of Gen
eral 800 H- - .
Gem Pierce, at the present time, we believe,
lives in Concord.
O yes,’ and the entite Democratic party is al
so living in concord,
The hoys at Dertmauth College, disappointed
in the non-BClectiou of Daniel Webster as the
Presidential candidate, fired a salntoof 100 guns
in honor of Scott trnd Graham ns the beat sooth
er of their troubled feelings.
In Illinois the nomination of Scott fell ns fiat
as dishwater. The Jeffersonian says there
were not 23 tvhigs in Galena to whom It traß ac
ceptable.' -
The Philadelphia Sun, whig, b onestly says,
that “Gen, Scott stands as little chance for en
joying tho luxury of the White House, as a boh
tailed horse has for rest in fly time."
Scott is a vain, conceited coxcomb of a man.
His brains, all tha t bo has, are in his epaulettes,
and if he should he elected President, he would
tear the Whig party into tatters in less than six
monthß. —Greeley in 1848.
It is said that large numbers of Whigs, oppos
ed to Gen. Soott, have stopped their subscriptions
to the Boston Atio#, the only Whigpaper in Bos,
ton that has Scott’s name at itshead. *■. .
General Scott’s pen,: in The language of the
Evening Journal, “dims the glories of his
sword.”
The New York Mirror, Whig, in noticing the
letters of the Democratic nominees accepting the
nominations, soys: “ They are both open, manly
expressions, every way worthy the chosen lead
ers' ofa powerful and intelligent party. The
writers of such letters have to be beaten by oth
er weapons than lies and vulgarity.” • .

on the election of Pleroe and King, allowing hie

W r ASHIHGTO3I Citv, July 8,1852.
’.■To the .Editors ef the Pittsburgh DaUy-P<at,~.
Gf.xtusmek :. Gen. Soott’sletter of acceptance
seems to have been written with the pnrpose of
enveloping in d&rkaesß' the opinion held by the
■writer upon the important on which he
toflChes. - - '
The expressions ■■■which arc used in reference
to the Compromise measures, arc vague ami lis-
We to different interpretations. An attempt is
mado to untoh tho-votcu-of Iho adopted citizens,
hut tbp bait thrown out is calculated to avoid,
if possible, to give offence to the Native party
insignificant as it is—and still to make theadop;
ted citizens forgetful of the conviction. Gen.
Scott has formerly proclaimed that foreigners
ought not to be admitted to American citizen
ship.’ Gen. Soott speaks ■ of, sympathy, for . the
cause of freedom in' Europe t. still: ho does not
object, to, the third resolution of. the Whig plat
form, and consequently'must be considered as
approving of tbc passive .polioy in regard to tho
struggle between liberty and despotism, in for
eign'COuatries, as recommended in that resolu
tion.
The letter in question, appears to have been
written rather by a cunning politician than by a
frank and open-hearted soldier. Goaded by nn
bridled ambition, but despairing of satisfying its
cravings by honest means, ■ Gen. Scott condes
cends to play the hypoorite. hoping to carry the
desired aim by deceit.
But this was to be expeoted from him as he
had accepted a platform whiob ho know, to be
objcotionable to the groat majority of those by
whose votes Be hopes to be eleoted. It is there
fore nothing astonishing that ho is now endea
voring to express himself in such a manner as
tomako his words liable to contradicting inter
pretations—as this is the Bole means left to him
of gaining the support of men the most opposed
to each other in principles. But I dare to pre
dict that Gen. Scott will have to learn that
“honeßty is the best policy,” and that not so
many ns he hopes, will permit themselves to bo
cajoled into his support by vague and undefined
expressions. -
Wo arc really to honor, in Gen. Soott, the go.
lent soldier and the experienced general, but the
Onset of his oatnpaign for the Presidency is such
as to lessen our esteem for him and to confirm
our opinion of his unfitness for the high dignity
to which he aspires.
It must, however, ho admitted that ho suits
well to be the candidate of the most unscrupu
lous political party that over existed. It is evi
dent that the Whigs for firmneßS of i
character or stability of principles, in those they
honor with their ehoioo for the highest office
within the gift of the American people. They
do not care for anythingbut availability, Ilenco
they brought forth Taylor as their standard
bearer in the last Presidential campaign and
for the same reason, they have now rallied round
Gen. Scott; though neither of theso gallant sol
diers could claim any statesmanlike qualities or
any firm political creed—both being men of nar
row intellect.
The hostility of the Whigs against Free Trade
is one Of the most convincing proofs of the har
mony which exists between them and the des
potic rulers of tho OldWoriiL No wonder, there
fore, that at every Presidential election, wo find
the dependent press of Europe, ; in favor of the
triumph of the Whig party.
Every defeat whioh tho Democratic party suf
fers, is justly considered by the adherents of
despotic rule, as a new guarantee of the stabil-.
itynf tbs present order of things in Europe,
while, on tho contrary, overy viotary achieved by.
the Democrats is bewailed as a step towards the
downfall of the European despots.
The duty of American freemen which party
to support seems to me so clear that Icannotfor
a moment doubt tho election of Gap. Franklin
Pierce and Hon. William R. King, the Democrat
ic candidates, whoso personal merits and quali
-1 ties are such as to claim the ready support of
every friend of Democratic institutions through
out the world. : Kespcotfully yours,

The St- Louis llopublican of the "Bth ult.
gives some very interesting statiatica as to. the

following compilation will be interesting to our
readers:

The number:of; wounded; 888,- The pecuniary
loss in the 209 instances, at tho supposed reason

life just mentioned, we will addthatinnamcrous

were launched into another world, the records
show nothing. The following estimate isreason

was $583,906; depreciation wMle in. servioe
$163,978; and the final loss $379,938.
The ImprUpnjnentof the American Com
»ui' at Acapulco.
- We stated on Saturday, 1 updor pur telegraphic
head, that F. W.Rice, Esq., the American Conaul
at Acapulco, Mexico, hod been thrown into pris
on af that place by the Mexican authorities. It
seems tbat'tbe .American steamship Com. Stock
ton had been unlawfully soited by the Ifexjoan
authorities, some six months sinoe, and Mr.
Rice has been laboring to got her olear from the
Government ever since. The steamer was ad
vertised for sale, and was purchased., by the
Chief Engineer,, on behalf- of himself and some
others of the crew; but not having complied
with tho was again advertised, and
advertisements were posted about the city, which
the Chief Engineer tore down. The steamship
was not sold, as no bidder oouldbe found willing
to riek his money. .
The Chief Engineor lodged a complaint against
the consul, and a file of gens d’armics wero aent
who aryested Mr. Rioe and conducted him to
prison in bis uuiforjp and with his Sag. A letter
from Aeapnloo says;
<‘l lave visited Mr. Rice at the Juzgado, and
find him in full in company with many
friends. : Her -Britannic Majesty’s consul is
conversing with him, and in fact I leam that the
British consul walked with him to the prison.
- The Fnited States oonsular flog is struck, and
the office is elosed. How matters will terminate
is 1 quite uncertain. There seems jo be but little
protection to.life and property of Americans, at
Aeapnloo.
Two: American ships, the Mercra and steam,
ship Independence, are obliged to get out of port
as best they can. The Independence will be

One of those anniversary festival,;, cimilar to
the one held last year in this city,'so common in
Germany, and which exhibit the social feeling
and the poetic and artistic sentiment so conspi
cuous in the German character, has lately been,
held in New York. The Germans exceed any.
other Europeans for their anniversary festivals.
They celebrate Christmas and Nejv Year. Pay,,
and Slay Day, and several other days or events,
with a degree of cordiality, of hilarity, of atten
tion to artistic details, wbich wo do not find in
any other people. The Spaniardsand Italians
have feasts and fasts and processions innumer
able. But the whole are appointed and com
manded end controlled by the Church. The;
French also, or rather the Parisians, arc exceed
ingly dramatic, and attach great importance to
epectadfi. ’BaUhtirtpidadn are mostly political,
and ordered and controlled by tho government.
The principle of voluntary association is entirely
excluded from the feasts and fasts of the Catholic
Church, and from the tpedades of the French
Government, But nil those German festivals are
voluntary and social; the proceedings of Booief
ties, clubs ahd other institutions, '.founded upqn
liberty of choice and equality of rights. The
numerous. German universities and colleges, .in
all of which festivals arc numerous, are not
voluntary, institutions. But. most of their festi
vals are,the. voluntary affairs of the students.—
Three features are prominent in these German
festivals; music, fiowors and women. Musio,
vocal and instrumental, or both, is introduced
in every one of them.
A body of Germane could not move Pom one
place to another without music. They couldnot
listen to a speeoh, an oration, a sermon, unless
it were introduced with mimic. They could not
separate, after listening io it,' without musio.—
They have no idea of. a festival without music;
They are a musical people, and their inimical in
stinot is cultivated by education. Musio is a
prescribed study and exercise, in all German
schools. Hence in the shop of every German
mechanic or trader ip tjie Statjs may bp
found some m'usioal instrument; 1 and henes eve-:
ry mechunto'in Germany, traveling in pursuit of
employment, carries a musical instrument with
the tooiß of his trade. We bavo also mentioned
fiowers as a feature in German festivals. In all
their decorations, whether of halls, tables, or
anything else, flowers appear, if they can be ob
tained; and if they cannot, artificial flowers Sup
ply theit place. And we have also mentioned
women. Wiveß, daughters and sisters, aunts and
cousins, are always present at German festivals. !
A German society "could not enter a hall for any
celebration, unless their feminine relatives and
friends were part of the audience, or sit down io
; a festival: banquet unless thej?: were among the
guests. They may not exhibit so much gallant
ry of manner to women as the Frenolior Span
iards; but they pay much more respect to women
ih all domestic .relations, and mingle- with that
respect more of what is oolled sentiment, than
any other Europeans.
The German festival lately held In New York
was a prooeeding of the various amaiure glu.
cluti or musical societies scattered through our
principal cities. They assemblcdto the number,
of a thousand or twelve hundred performers.—
Their performances were entirely vooal, andac
oofding to_ the' newspapers .and. ear-witnesses,
were in a "style worthy of a long journey to hear
them.- After performances in Metropolitan ITail
for two days and evenings, they sat down to a
banquet on the third day, in Elm Park, at which
the Mayor pf the city presided, and at : which the,
participants were about two > thousand of both.
sexes. The spectators in the* Park were estima
ted qt twenty thousand.
These features ip the German character , sng-;
gest a few reflections. Leaving their native land
to escape firoinbad government, the Germans are
coming tq our country by hundreds of thousands.
They dpmenotllke thqßevio|ims ofatiil greater
oppression, : the destitute; Irish, in poverty arid:
Tags, with no -means of-living but the simplest
forms of labor; and entirely ignorant of any or
tistio aecompUahment. ;-We; mention. thiaiure
proaoh of the British government in Ireland, and.
nbt'bf' ifa crushed and despqlled victims, whq
show by the rapidity with which they improve
after arrlved; .wW a different people they would
have been at home under good institutions. The
Germans bring money, the fruits of their thrift,
in their own misgoverned country. Instead of
loitering about oifr pqrts qf arrival in putaui'tof
employment, they come well informed about the
localities where labor of any kind is most in de
mand, and proceed to them without delay. Such
things shew general education, habits of reflec
tion and self-reliance, foresight and sagaoity;
nod all these qualities promise that success which
they so generally achieve. But one of their best
features is their love of art; and the poetic.sen
timent with which they regard all .the domestic
relations. T*t®y oro nnt so temperate as tho
Southern Europeans.- But drinking among tho.
Germans is not disgraced by the qnbrreting,
brawls, riots, beating of wives and children,
which are snob odious features in the intemper
ate from the British Isles, and, wo add with
shame, among the natives. The Germans , sing,
pipe and fiddle over their wine an& lager-becr:
But Americans, English, Irish, .Soots;’ prefer
fightitig'over their rnm: > and whisky,; : Poes this
general love of musio,.the' result of education, i
refineqand soften the Germans, Snd restrain those I
passions which ore always most - fierce: among!
people with tho fewest ioteUectn-i- Fesources? 1
We think that it does, and would therafafq re
commend,the Cfepnnu system of-making m nsj o
animpsratlve study in all of our schools. The 1
