    Gen' Scott and lion. John M. Botts.
The Richinond Whig•of yesterday, pub
lishes a letter from the Hon. John M. Botts,
a delegate to the Whig National :Conven
tion, from the state of Yirginia, addressed
to a member of the House of Delegates of
'that State, in which is giiren a very frank
and candid representation of General Scott's
position and opinions. The letter is dated
at Washington, on the Sd instant, and in it
Mr. Botts says :
This morning I called on Gen. Scott. I
-had a very long, 'free and full interchange
'of views with him, and I found his position
'to be precisely this in reference to writing;
.'he is differently advised by friends North
and South (whose counsels are entitled to
consideration) to write and not to write ;
large majority, including many from the
'South urging him to remain silent.—This
'condition of thing s embarrasses him not a
little, as his indvidual . perference Would
'he to publish his views at large while he
does not feel himself at liberty, in his pros- .
!ent position, to take the bit between his
teeth, in disregard of the advice of much the
larger portion of his friends from both sec
tions of the country. If he writes, he obliges
a small and perhaps offends a large number
'of those whose counsel he ought to listen to ;
'while if he remains passive, he gives no par
ilcular cause of ofThoce to either.
Gen. Scott occupies no doubtful or equiv
ocal position on the Compromise, nor does
he desire to do so ; and if he did. I would
not support him, even if nominated. • [hi
views are freely expressed to every man
who approaches him, 00 matter to what par
ty or section he may belong. He is acces
sible to every respectable man in the coun
try, who chooses to approach him, and he
'has never hesitated to say that he is .in fa- .
vor of the Compromise measures in all their
!parts and opposed to any disturbance, agita
tion or alteration of the Fugitive Slave law ;
and he enjoins confidence, and secrecy en

mortgagor may wish, to cover expenses and
contribute toward payment of the debt. If
the borrowing farmer contracts 0 per cent.
yearly interest, 4 per cent. of it goes for the
interest the bank pays on its bonds, per
cent. for expenses ; and the residue la- per
cent. is to form a fund for the final extinguish
ment of the debt which, being put upon in
terest every yearend compounded will wipe
it away in 40 years, and the farmer or his
heirs will have his acres clear again. If he
chooses to . pay 7 per cent. a year, the pro
cess of reduction is completed in little more
than half that time. This has two advanta

which gives life to Building. : Associations.

A Self Redeeming Mortgage. •
With the Newark Advertiser, we do not
like to hear of menages upon farms, where
the annual interest at 6 per cent. is some
how or other to be squeezed by much pain
ful economy and hard work, out of a scanty
and sometimes damaged crop of hay. vege
tables and fruit. Our cotemporary follows
this remark up by saying that with the ut
most parsimony, little of anything can be
saved for the gradual reduction of the prin
cipal ; so thathe proprietor, though lie calls
himself with a degree of pride, the owner
of his acres, possesses in fact only a lease
of them at a rack rent.. They do these
things differently in Prelim wherelhe Pres
ident authorizes the creation of Mortgage
banks, which advance Money on real es

bonds at 4 per cent. interest. The bank

There is no plant that grows, which is

Such applications may be made at the time
