last by a vote of 126 to 65. It passed the
Senate last session, but has thus long been
461970(1 in the Ileum by perlizan rancor
The complimpt is eminently deserved.ri
Only once before, in the history of our
Government, has -the same compliment'
boon bestowed-in the:case of Gen. WABEr•
INGTOrt. Next to Washington, General
SCOTT stande a head andietoelders taller
than any soldier of the Republic, being
moreover, beyond all question, - the great
est living Captain of the age. He it was,
who, in the war gi 1812, although scarce
ly more than a boy in years, stemmed the
tide of disaster which 'had befallen our
arms, and taught the 4merican troops to
defeatzhe well-drilled veterans of, Eng
land. The whole life of the 'veteran has
' been devoted- to the discipline and ith
provement of every branch of the service.
It was his perfect kn owledge:of. the wants
of an army in 'the field that enabled him
to conduct the Mexican war to its incoesil
ful and brilliant termination: ' Of the ma
ny distinguished ,Cienersls then in service
none wore so. well qualified are Winfield
Scott to bring to it fortunate issue that
hazardous campaign. and to itchier(' vie
tories which commanded the unlimited
plause of Wellington himself; .Featii like
his performed in either the English, or
French servioe would have been rewarded
by the highest military titles and by peer
ages apd - ponsicins. i Of the'latter of these,
thank heaven, our country. has no pre
coddles ; but a higher military gaule than
our service recognises was due him; and
we cannot conceive how'any 'represonta
tire of the penple, with an American heart
in his bosom, could refuse to vote him a
distinction so hardly earned and so well
deserved.
It is said that the rank of Lieutenant-
General will give General Scott about
$30,000 back paY, and about $1,600 addi
tional yearly. The ' veteran hero Is said
to have been' deeply: affected on hearing
that the reiolution bad passek The cur
respolident of the New York Tribune says
that Gene Shields and Judge Denise both
electioneered in the : House in favor of don
ferring the title'. Upon ascertaining , the
vote, Col. Preston drove to the War De
partment, whore he announced the intel
ligence to Scott. The .General dropped
his bead for a moment, and tears were seen
trickling down his cheek. His reply was
worthy of his fame, and was precisely as
follows
~ L et oo man say. hereafter. that his country if
ungrateful to one who hisserved her faithrully.!
FOREIGN MILITARY:—The move

against the existing m i l itary organi
salons in the United States composed of
foreigners, seems to have excited 'the - ire
of John Mitchell, the Irish exile. We
find quoted in thii Cincinnati Commercial
the following extract from some speech or
writing of his on the subject
"For every musket given into the State

HARRTBBIII/43, FEB. 18, 1855.
Masan. Ennoas :—The pant week has
been an exciting one among politicians and
the-friends of the several aspirants for
the U. S. Senatorship. Some 60 or 70
nominations were made in the Senate and
Hones ; but of- these not more than eight
er ten were intended to be seriously urged.
The American party having nearly three
fourths of the members in their ranks, and
thus being able to elect whom they pleased,
the chief interest of course centered' in
their movements.. Unfortunately, howev
'er, the harmony of the 'American caucus
was broken by the persistent and injudi
cious policy of the friends of several of the
leading candidates, and by allegations of
corrupt' influences: On Friday night the
American memberi of the Senate and
House were invited to meet In the East
Committee Room to nominate a candidate
for 'United States Senator. Ninetrone
members appeared and participated in the
proeeedings--between thirty and forty of
whom were American Democrats. Messrs.
Gross and North, of Lancaster, and one or
two other special friends ol Simon Came
ron, had refused to attend the previous
'caucuses, and eve. voted against the Amer
ican nominees for Speaker of the House,
and State Treasurer. Their right to par.
ticipate in the proceedings of lids caucus,
when they did not recognise the validity
'otintuous nominations,' was denied, and a
motion made to that effect. This, bower.
ever, afters protracted and exciting debate,
was laid on the table by the aid of the votes
of Messrs. North, Grass and Co. This
, was the entering wedge to the subsequent
difficulties, which were increased by the
failure of a motion to ballot openly for a
candidate-44 voting for open ballot, and
47 for secret tallot--the friends of Cameron
generally votingfor the latter. Rumors had
been rife throughout the day in regard to
corrupt influences, more . particularly on
the part of Cameron's friends; and in the
Bar-rooms, Oyster Saloons, and other
places of resort, the names of members al
lodged to have been bought by money,
with the prices paid, were freely and open.
ly canvassed. The open ballot was designed
to make these men difaee the musio." Up
on this being lost, the most intense excite
ment ensued, in the midst of which the
caucus proceeded to ballot with the follow
ing result :

were present. Intense excitement ensued,
in the midst of which a motion to adjourn
was made, but ruled out of order by the
chairman, Mr. Smut, (a Cameron Whig.)
Outraged by this decision of the Chair, aid
satisfied that conropt intinenies were at

raption, and thefrierids of the several candi
dates charging the most shameful viola
tient' of promises on the part" of members.
Matters thus continued until last night,
the market value of Mepibers and Senttora
being freeli cenvissed . at prices ranging
from $5 to $1,000;
In one case I heard the name of a West
ern member whose vote was alledged to
have been bought for 85—also the name
of a Senator who commanded s9oo—snd
others between these amounts. Last night
the old•line Democrats, (29 In number,)
had a caucus, and agreed upon Senator
Buou.a.zw as their candidate. The old
line Whigs (numbering 8) nominated Mr.
Wimests, of Allegheny, while the bolt•
ing Americans agreed to cast their votes
in such a way as should best contribute to
the defeat of Cameron. I may here re
mark that among the anti• Cameron bolters
were a number of American Democrats—
Lowe, of Franklin; Laporte, of Bradford;
Linderman, of Berko; Cummings, of
Philadelphia ; McCalmont, of Venango;
Lathrop, of Susquehanna, and others.
This morning the Hall of the House
with the lobbies was densely crowded at
an early hour by strangers and citizens,
anxious to witness the "free fight." Long
before the hour designated for the Joint
Convention, it was almost impossible to
effect an entrance into the House. .Beth
Houses spent an hour or more on usual
business, which was interrupted in' the
Senate by the introduction of-a Resolu
tion by Mr. JORDAN, authorizing the ap
pointment of a Joint Committee of three
from each Honse to inquire into the char
ges of corrupt or iiproper ipflueices, in•
connection with the Senatorial election,
the Committee to have power to send for
persons and papers.
The Resolution was promptly and unan
imously adopted by'the Senate, and sent
to the Honse,,where, after a sharp :discus
sion, it wsiradopted by a' votit 497 to I.
At 12 o'clock the members of the Sen.
are, proceeded to the Hall of the Rouse;
and the 'Joint Convention proceeded to
ballot for U. S. Senator, with the follow.
ing result :
Fimon Cameron, (American Dem) 58

Opinions vary sto the effect of this poet.
ponement, the general impression, however,
being that it seals Cameron's late. I hope
it may prove tree. The fifteen anti-Cam

after the bolting of their follow metnbers,
and who regarded themselves bound by
the action of the mucus, will now doubt.
loss fell themselves absolved from all fur-
ther obligation to vote for Cameron.—
They have now voted for him, and having
failed to Act, can fairly fall back upon
some other candidate.
In this conneotion, it is no more than
due to your Senator, (Dr. 11Imusamt,)
to say that his course to day on the Sena-
oriel quesiton baa won him golden opin
ions. He was one of the anti• Cameron
Americans Who remained in mums, after
the bolt. He had Voted for STEVENS.
Coona, and Cunruf,in Caucus, but hav
ing remained with the 59, in common with
them he felt the obligations of the caucus
action, but could not reconcile it with his
dense ofduty to cast his vote for Caine
ron. If he voted for Senator, having par.'
ticipated
.in the caucus to the end, ho
would be under obligation to vote for the
caucus nominee. So thought and acted
his colleagues, as will be seen by the vote'
—Cameron receiving 68 votes on the 6rat
ballot—just the number who remained in
caucus. ninus Dr. MELusiaztt. Unwil--
ling, however, to bear the imputation of
having contributed to Cameron's election,
he declined voting far Senator, refusing to
answer to his name, until the vote on ad
journment was called, when he voted in
`the affirmative.
For thus adopting a course which re.
lieved him from the embarnutsnent of a
caucus obligation, Dr Mellinger today
received the tvartnest congratulations of
his friends. I notic'ed in frequent illusion
ces the anti• Cameron men evincing their
appreciation. of his manly course by cor-
dial acknowledgments. while the Comoro
nians passed him with a frown. '
Mr. M'CLEArr, your-member. voted with
the old-lino Democrats for Buckalew.—
He also voted for postponing the elec.
tion.
Twenty-eight of the bolting Anleritana
have bunted a strong address in vindica
tion of their course. in which, after recit•
ing the history of the caucus proceedings,
they give s number of insuperable objec
tions to Mr. Ommootes election. They
charge him with having been treacherous
in his put party professions—with hav-
ing sought and effected an - entranee into
the American organization, covertly and
at a late hour, solely with the view of pros.
tituting into the promotion of his, selfish
aims—and republish a series of resolutions
adopted at a County Convention in Har
risburg, as late as last September, of
which he was a member, and without op
position from him. These resolutions, of
fered by Cameron's colleague in that Con
vention, and said to be in Cameron's own
hand-writing, affirm the fullest confidence
in the administrations of Gen. Pierce and
Gov. Bigler—endoree the Nehraaka-Ken•
eas Bill—and denounce Know Nothing
ism as anti republican and proaiiriPtive.
and call upon the Deinocracy "to 'opinion
for office all who are known to have any
connection with it."
. They also allude to the element of
i.sitameless and wholesale private bri=
bery," said to have been used by Canirerr .
ion and his friends, and announee their
unwillingness to sanction this corruption
by their rotes. The Address Is strongly
wriften, end will do good.
ICrThe Joint Special Committee under
the resolution to investigate the charges of
bribery in the matter of the election of a
11. S. Senator, consists of Messrs. Jordan,
M'Clintock, and Browne, of the Senate,
and Eyster, Thompson, and Ballade, of
the House.
Ihe United States Senate, last
week, after variously amending Mr. Brod
head's Bounty Land bill, passed the some

comprehensive in its provisions; iving 160
acres of land to all who served not less
