LOT AND PUBLIC SERVICES
'OF
GEN. WINFIELD SCOTT.
Winfield Scott was born near Petersburg,
in Virginia, on the 15th of June in the year
1786. He finished his studies at the Col
lege of William and Mary and was admit
ted to the bar in 1806. After practising
law in Virginia about a year, he emigrated
to South Carolina.,
Our difficulties with England caused Con
gress to pass an act in April, 1808 to in
crease the army. Scott applied immediate
ly for a commission in one of the regiments
about to be raised, and in May, 1808, was
appointed a captain of light artillery.
War was not actually declared until June
1812. The interval between !el and the
declaration of war, was one of great political
' excitement. Scott sided with the Democrat
ic party, supported the election of President
Madison, and approved, advocated, and
'wrote in favor of war measures.
In July, 1E312, Scott was commissioned
lieutenant-colonel in the 2d artillery, and
proceeded to the Niagara frontier. In Octo
of that year, Lieutenant Elliot applied to
Scott for assistance in men to capture. the
Adams and Caledonia, two British vessels
of-war, then lying under the protection 'of
the guns of Fort - Erie. The vessels were
both captured ; but Elliot was compelled to
abandon the A dams. She got aground, and
the British attempted to retake her, but were
repulsed by the gallantry of Colonel Win
field Scott. This was the first time he had
met the enemy, and here as in every subse
quent engagement, where he was first in
command he was victorious.
A few days after tvas fought the meincira
ble battle of Queenstown Heights. Scott
was the hero of the day, and covered hint-.
self with glory.. ,The battle lasted fdr many
hours and was fought on the part of the
Americans with most fearful odds against
them. The British army, having been rein
forced numbered not less than thirteen hun
dred men, while the Americans were redu
ced to less than three hundred. Finding
that the militia on the opposite shore refused
or were unable to cross to their aid, and
that succor was hopeless, Scott's heroic
band was at length compelled to surrender.
But their gallant deeds upon that day car
ried inspiration to every American heart.—
The disgarce of Hull's surrender was wip
ed off-the taunts of the enemy checked-the
cha mote r-of-the_Ainerican_army red tie tiled.
Scott was carried a prisoner to Quebec.
While he was there, an incident occurred
which had a most important bearing upon
the future conduct of the war, and is descry
inn. of particular mention.
'While Scott was a prisoner at Quebec,
the British attempted to enforce their doc
trine of perpetual allegiance in retard to cer
tain Irish prisoners found in the ranks of
the American army at Queenstown. The
followitv , is a description of the scene :
"Scott, being, in the cabin of the transport,
heard a bustle upon deck nod hastened up.
There he found a party of 13ritish officers in
the act of mustering tile prisoners and zwp
oratina front the rest such as by confession,
or the accent of the voice, Were judged to be
Irishmen. 'lle tiiij,ict was to
frigate, then alongside to Enelandoo bye
tried and executed fur the crime of high trea
son, they being taken in arms against their
native allegiance. Twenty-three had been
thus set apart, when Scott reached the deck.
The moment Scott ascertained the object of
the British officers he commanded•his men
to answer no more questions, in order that
no other selections should be made by the test
of speech. lie commanded them to remain
silent, and they strictly obeyed. This was
done in spite of the threats of the British
officers,and not another man was separated
from his companions. Scott was repeatedly
commanded to go below and high alterca
tions ensiled. Be add ressed the party selec
ted, and explained to them fully the recip
rocal obligations of allegiance and protec
tion, assuring than that the United States ,
would not fail to avenge their gallant and
faithful soldiers ; and finally pleged himself
in the most solemn manlier, that retaliation
and if necessary, a refusal to give quarters
in battle should follow the execution of any
one of the party. In the midst of this ani
mated harangue, he was frequently interrupt
ed by the British officers, but though unarth
ed could not be silenced."
The Irishmen thus selected were sent to
England. As soon as Scott was exchanged
he proceeded to Washington, and reported
the whole affair to the Secretary of War by
a written corntuhnication. This report was
transmitted to Congress ; and Scott, in per
sonal interviews, pressed the sul•jeet upon
the attention of members. A u act was accor
dingly passed on the 3d of Alarch, 1513,
vesting the President with the power of re
taliation. In an enongement soon after,
Scott captured a number of prisoners. True
to his pledge given at Quebec, he immedi
ately selected twenty-three of the number to
be confined in the interior of the country,
there to abide the fate of the twenty-three
Irishmen taken at Queenstown and sent to
England for trial.
The result of this firm resolution on the
part of Scott,. acid of the legislations conse
quent upon his efforts, was nut rally •to save
t he lives of the twenty-three Irish prisoners
`but to compel England, throughout the re
mainder of the war; to respect the righti of
our naturalized citizens, by virtually aban
doning her claim to perpetual allegiance.
Just after the close of the war, as General '
Scott was walking along one of the wharves
of New York lie wits hailed by his old Irish
friend's for whom he had interfered at Que
hec. They had just been released front
the English prisoners,--and now rushed to
embrace him as their deliverer.
At the capture of Fort George, on the
27th Of May, ISI3, Scott led the advanced
guard. He landed on the Canada shore of
Lake Ontario, formed his command on the
beach, and scaled the banks behind which
the British forces were drawn up, fifteen
lisuadred strong. The action was short and
desderate, but ended in the total rout of the
441 cry y. - Scott was the, fira man to • enter
the fort, and hauled - down the British flag
with his own hands.
On the 10th and 11th of Noi , ember 1813,
Scott defeated the enemy in two actions,
one nt Fort Matilda, the other at Hoophole
C reek.
- - -
On the ,9th of March, 1814, when only
twenty-seven years of age, Scott was promo
ted to the rank of Brigadier General.
A few days after this promotion, General
Brown, then chief in command on the Niag
ara frontier, left Scott at Buffal 0, to instruct
and drill the army, which was then concen
trating at that point. Scott had' entire
charge of this camp of instruction for about
three months. The result of the discipline
and spirit which his teachings here infused
into the Nothern army, were soon to be de
velopedn the fields of Chippewa and Lundy's
Lane.
The battle of Chippewa, was fought on
the sth of .July, 1814. Scott, with 1900
Americans, met on an open plain and rout
ed with the bayonet 2100 of the' veteran
troops of England—the very flower of her
army. As the two armies approached to
close quarters, Scott called aloud to Nlc:Neil's
battalion—"the enemy say, we are good at
long shot, but cannot stand the cold iron !
I call upon the eleventh instantly to give the
lie to that slander ! Charge !" They did
charge ! Before (en. Brown could come
up with the rear division of the American
army, Scott had already won the day, and
was in hot pursuit of the flying enemy.—
The British had been beaten with•their own
boasted weapon—the bayonet. The valor
and skill of the Boy -Grrperal of twenty eight
had vanquished all the boasted prowness of
their world.renowned veterans.
Gen. Brown, in his official report of this
battle, says; "Brigadier Goneral Scott is en
titled to the highest praise a country can be
stow. His brigade covered itself with glory.''
The battle of Lutity's Lane (or Niagara
as it is frequently called.) was fought on the
26th of July, ISII, just three, weeks after
that of Chippewa. The battle commenced
about forty Minutes before sunset and con
tinued until midnight. Here again Scott
was the master spirit of the fHit. Ameri
can valor again thriumphed over the veteran
regiments of Britian. Scott had two horses
killed under him, was wounded in the side but
still fought on until the close of the battle,
whius he was prostrated by wound in the
shoulder. This was the hardest fought bat
tle of the war. Our limited space will not
allow a more extended notice of its details,
and, indeed, it would superfluous to re-
capitulate the events of that rlorious - day, fam
iliar as they are every American school bay.
Where so many had gathered imperishable
laurels, it was truly a proud honor for the
youthful Scott to be hailed by universal con
sent, ''the hero of Lit nd y's Lane."
For his gallantry in these actions, Scott
was soon after promoted to the rank of 3,la
jor General. 011 November ad, lb 11, Con
g,ress passed n r sniution awarding a gol.l
medal to Alajor General Scott “in testi
mony of the high sense entertained by Con
gress of his distinguished services in the
successive conilicts of Chippewa, and of his
uhiforin gallantry and gothl conduct in sus
mining the high reputation of the arms of
the United Slates."

"Beinc!. from woutids, he
soon after went to Eat ono tor 1.11.2 restoration
of his health and for professional improve
ment. flo. was also enirosted by the Gov
rnment with important diplomatic functions.
He executed his instructions in so satisfac
tory a manner that President Madison caused
to be written to him by the Secretary of State
a sneend letter of thanks.
Li Pstlfl., Scott was ordered to take com
mand in the 13!ack [lawk %var.
De sailed from Buffalo for Chicago with
nearly one thousand troops in four steam
boats. On the Nth July, while on the voy
age the cholera broke out among the troops
with fearful violence. On the boat in which
General Scott sailed two hundred and twen
ty troops, there
,occured in six days one
hundred and thirty cases of cholera and fif
ty-one. death. After General Scott had pro
ceeded Ircai Chicago to tile Mississippi river,
the pestilence „again broke out among his
troops. During the prevalence of this ter
rible scourge, his devoted attention upon his
sofibring, soldiers excited the admiration of
all who were present. In the language of
a letter written at the time by an officer of
the army, "the Gen.'s course of conduct on
that occasion should establish for him a rep
utation not inferior to that, which lie has
eiirned on the battle field ; and should,ex
hibit him not only as a warrior, but as a
man—not only as the hero of battles but as
the hero of humanity."
After the termination of the Black Ilawk
war, Gen. Scott and Gov. Reynolds were
appointed by the U. S. Governmentcommis
:ioners to treat with the North-Western In
dians in reference to nll pending difficulties.
In the various conferences held with the de
putations from the various tribes, it became
the duty of Gen. Scott to conduct the discus
sions. This he did with great ability and
ingenuity, and the result of the commission
was to procure a treaty, just to the Indians,
ceding the title to more than ten millions of
acres being a greet portion of the latids of
[owa and Wisconsin.
A fter the termination of the Black Hawk
war, and of the treaty with the Indians, Gen.
Cass, then Secretary of War, wrote in re
ply to Scott's official report as follows :
"Allow toe to congratulate you upon this
fortunate consummation of your arduous du
ty, and to express my entire approbation of
the whole course of your proceedings, du ring
a series of difficulties requiring higher mor
al courage than the operations of an active
campaign under ordinary circumstances."
Directly after his return front the Black
Hawlc war, Gen. Scott was sent by Presi
dent Jackson on a confident mission of great
responsibility. South Carolina nullificatlon
then threatened to embroil the nation in civ.
it war. There was imminent danger that
the strife would at once begin between the
citizens of Charleston and the United States
troops, stationed there. 'rhe object of the
President in sending Scott to South Caroli
na at this time, was to prevent, if possible,
any, direct act of collision, and at the same
time enforce the laws of the Federal Govern
ment. Scott's moderation and discretion
while at Charleston, saved the country from
the horrors of civil war. Tho full history
of his valuable services on that occasion,
cannot now be written, as much of it still re
mains under the seal of secrecy.
On the 20th of January, 18:i0, Gen Scott
was ordered to take command in the Florida
war. There he did all that the greatest
military talent could accomplish. But the
malice or envy of a brother officer, by mis
representations made to the President pro
cured his recall, for the purpose of having
his official conduct subjected' to the opinion
of a Court of Enquiry. That Court, after
full investigation, pronounced the charges
against Gen. Scott unsustained, and further
that "he had been Jealous and indefatigable
in the discharge of his duties, and that his
plan of campaign was well tbqised and pros
secuted with energy, steadiness and ability."
In 1S:38, Gen. Scott was sent by the Presi
dent to the Canada frontier—then in - a state
of fearful excitement on account of the burn
ing of the Carolina within the American ter
ritory. The whole population of Northern
New York seemed about to march into Can
ada to avenge the wrong which had been
done the national honor. The object of the
administration was to preserve peace be
tween the two nations, until pending diffi
culties could be settled by negotiation. For
this purpose Scott was sent to the frontier.
There he labored night and day, passing rap
idly from point, to point superintendin,g and
directing the actions both of the military and
civic authorities, and frequently, along a
line of eight hundred miles, addressing ire
mense gatherings of the excited citizens.—
He succeeded in his mission beyond the ex
pectations of the most sanguine. The
peace of the country was pres.:rved.
During the same year he was ordered to
the delicate service of removing the Chero
kee nation beyond the Mississippi. Here
he displayed at once the highest degree of
energy, sagacity and humanity.
The leading journals of the day were fil
led with encomiums upon the conduct of
Scott in these services. The National In
teliigencer of September 27th, IS3S, says :
"The manner in which this gallant officer
has acquitted himself within the last year,
upon our Canada-frontier and lately among
the—Giierokees, has excited the universal
admiration and gratitude of the whole nation.
In 1539 arose the North Eastern Boun
dary difficulty. The divputed territory
was about to become the battle ground be
ttveen the troops of Maine and New Bruns
wick. War was considerable inevitable.—
In this crisis, General Scutt was again de
puted by the Government to calm the rising
storm. Elis able services on that occasion
showed him to be possessed of the highest
talents as a statesman and diplomatist. A
war considered inevitable was prevented--
the honor of the cunotry preserved—and cat
returned with Irrsh laurels upon his lniuw,
acid the "hero of Lundy's Lane" was hailed
un all sides as the "Great Pacificator."
The services of Gen. Scott
.111 the Mexi
can war are of so recent date,'"and so fresh
in the reculli.ction of the A inerican people
and the whole civilized world, that it is use
less to do Inure than wake a passing
Prosi,L4lt
On the 10th of March, l!7, Gen. Scott
arrived before Vera Cruz. On the I of
September, I.N-17, he planted the stars and
stripes over the National Palace in the Ci
ty of Mexico. Wnliin these six months
San Juan [YU;loa,—the American G ibral
ter,—was stormed, and the battles of Cerro
Gordo, Contreras, San Antonia, Churubus
co, Mulino del Bey, and Chepultepec, were
fought and won. With less than ten thou
sand fighting nom, he attacked and routed
again and amtin, thirty thousandof the best
troops of Mexico, posted behind the strong
test fortifications, and fighting with the cour
age of desperation. Nothing of military ac
chievement recorded in ancient or modern
history, can excel the glory of that march
front Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico.
Such is a brief sketch of one whose life
has been devoted to the services and glory .
of his country—and whose patriotism is en
larged enough to•extend to the whole coun
try. Born a Southern man—reared and ed
ucated among Southerners—lot has 'ought
and bled alike for the North and South—and
to suppose that he could be willing to do in•
Justice to either, would be. to declitro the
last forty years of his life but a lie !
When a'citizens has been for nearly half
a century in the services of his country, his
past history, is the best guranty for ; his fu
ture conduct.
Remarkable Voyage in (he
John Wise. of Lancaster, Pa., made his
131st aerial voyage Irom Portsmouth, Ohio
on the 3rd inst. llis balloon voyage was
remarkable one, and the grandest he ever
performed, so far, as magnificent sights are
concerned. Hex. ascended a little after 4
o'clock in the afternoon, and as soon . rose
to an elevation of 2,000 feet. IVhile slaw-
I}' sailing along at this elevation, by the
range of a hill in Kentucky; three rifle shots
were fired al him, one struck the car, lint so
very lightly that it did no harm. Ile believes
the striking part was mere chance. Thoze
who fired the shots, we have no doubt,, did
not imagine that there was a person in the
balloon. Some exceedingly useful meteo
rological information was obtained by Mr.
Wise in his voyage. These he states are
as follows:
Ist. Thunder storms have two plates
of cloulds, the upper discharging the con
tents, whatever it may be rain, hail or snow.
2d. Sheet lightening of an orange color
undulates silently between the upper and
idwer cloud, in a waving motion.
3d.. The discharges of electricity take
place in the lower cloud, (by discharges are
meant thunder and lightening.)
4th. The distance bet Ween the upper and
lower cloud is not less then 2,000 feet, this
is mere eyeAteasurement.). •
sth. The uprising current was not conti
nued higher than the lower cloud, und was
rising and. whirling ns long ns I was in the
margin of the storm, being in it twenty-five
minutes.
6th. The storm was much wider below
than above, and the deposite diverging at
least 25 deg. from a perpendicular line.
7th The deposition of hail and rain was
thickest in the centre of tho storm. I
could not, of course, look through it, but I
viewed one from its front, the other from
behind its line of direction, and they both ap
peared the same.
Bth. Under the shadow•of the upper
cloud it is very cold, and in the lower cloud
it is quite Harm.
9th. The upper cloud was moved by the
current which itivays blows from west to
east.,
WEIL Other causes than the upper current
may aff'ect the horizontal course of thunder
storms so us to increase or diminish their
violence.
I ini , ht deduce some data from what
was so distinctly ()Nerved on this occasion
but will for the present leave that to ablir
heads, and particularly to Prof. El-py und
the Smithsonian Institution.
Mr. Wise enjoyed the grand and terrific
spectacle of 'looking down upon a %var of
the elements upon a scale of grandeur far
surpassing Waterloo. We advise Prof.
Epsv and Dr. ( care to 'flake a number of
aerial voyages to settle their disputes. We
think it would be a grand phut for them ;
much better than writing and printing long
papers on the subject. Let them get up in
to the regions above, along with Mr. \Vise,
and make observati9lis. '!'his point might
be very useful to the Smithsonian Institute
in getting meterologicial inforination.

Also Lessons on the Violin.
The'attention of the public is called par
ticularly to his system of teaching upon the
violin, which is designed especially to be
ginners. The course consists of 100 lessons
with 29 extra lessons in the rudiments of
music. The lessons are progressively ar
ranged so as to gradually developo the tal

object of these lessons is not merely to learn
the pupil to play a few tunes, but to give
him a correct knowledge of the instrument,
Rowing, Fingering, Tuneing, after which
he will be able to find his way through
more difficult composition. Those persons
wishing to take lessons, are assured hat no
music of a light or frivilous character will
be introduced, but such as is calculated to
elevate the taste and lay a correct founda
tion. TerMs $5 00 for the course, 4 les
sons can be given each day at alternate
hours, and-a lesson in the evening nn the
milli - writs of music, or one lesson each day.
