Fortune associates the 'tattles of same men
with objects which are - Midttring. Scott's mil
itary history opens with hi's his night victory
on - the heights of Niagara, where'the thunder
of his cannon, Mingled - with the , everlasting
roar of the cataract. Ilia latest and most
rions achievements were performed at the oth
er extremity of the continent, within sight of
the blueebne of Popocatapetl. vic
tories on the northern frontier won for him at
the age of twenty-eight, the rank of Major-
General.; and they remind us of the youth of
-Washington, without the gloom or glory .of
Braildook'th'dEfelit. Yliit in lifiVinarch to the
,capital of Mexico, there is a splendor of mill
tiay achievement and romantic, 'adventure,
which'ilarkeL the hitherto undimmed lustre of
Cortez on the same victorious path.
Winfield Scott is descended from a Scotch
ancestry. llis grandfather—whose brother_
was Qtin on the field of Culloden—heing : in,
volved in the rehellito of 1745, emigrated 'to
Virginia, bringing with him little but a 'Werra
education. A respectable marriage, and emi
ritTn-c-Cirtivrbar,..lif
... tneThar,.however,.soon restored his
Mrtunes. He died at an early age, but the ,
germ he -On - tiled flourished in that - generous
soil. Ills sou William married Ann Mason, a
gifted and noble -woman; and their youngest
child is the subject of this sketch. The dgaZ
of his father, during the infanoy of Winfield,
devolved the education of the family on Mrs.
Scott, who clisch , -;, .{ .:r trust with christian
fidelity. §lte ::',.,':,' -- 1803, leaving Scott in
Ids - 11eVentetint - q; , t . - After various and' Sue . -
cessfulatudies Whfter the best masters, and at
the College of Willinin and Mary, ho was ad-1
witted to the bar in 4806 and began the prac
tice of the law. He resided with Benjamin
Watkins Leigh; and enjoyed at the time, 'and''
Ton afterwards, the dininent advantages of
that great man's counsel, direction, and friend
ship. It is singular that our two greatest
Generals were. brought into the army by _the
same event. L--the attack on the Chesapeake—
and at the some time.
In 111 - a • 1608, Scott received Ids commission
as a Captain of Light Artillery, and in 1809,
was transferred to the camp at New Orleans.—
A free expression of opinion on the conduct or
his late General, boat him' a suspension from
the army for a year, which he spent in the
house of his friend Mr. Leigh, engaged in the
study. of international law, and the science of
war. lie came forth from this transient e
clipse—which had been regarded with no 'dis
honor—fully prepared for the approaching
conflict.
ELLIOTT,
Main street. Carlisle.
TLe second , War of Independence was de
clared against England, June 18, 1812. The
following month Scott. received. a Lientenitnt
Colonel's commission, and was ordered to Ni
agara, where the main force of the - coming
tempest would first extend itself. The disas
trous surrender of General Ilull had oovered
,the army Ivith shame, and the nation wilh
gloom. The appearance of Se • ott on the frontier
atillis dark period, was like the presence of
Godfrey at the head of the disheartened Gru
caders.- The---battle of Queenstown Heights,-
although a defeat, gave to Anierica the pres
tige Of a'Victory • . ' . •
Iu 1813, an exchange of prisoners restored,
Scott to his country. He again hastened •to
the frontier, and May 27, captured Fort
George. The brilliant victory of Chippewa,.
wrested by superior skill and science on a fair
*- fl; from'llie best troops of England, exeßed
the admiration of the veteran Generals of, the
old. World. Scarcely twenty days after,. was
gained the _decisive -victory • of._,Niagaraovltich

From Bentley's.Misoollzmy
. T4E:HISTORY OP GLASS.
Upwards of two thousand 'years ago; ps,r
haps:three, a - company Of 'merchant - 5, Who
a cargo of nitre on board their ship, were &Ly
on by the winds on the shores of Galilee', Close
to small stream that runs from - Mount - Car - - --
ma Being here weather-bound till the-storm
abatod, they made preparations for cooking
theinfood on the strand; andnot finding stones
to re - Srtheir vess - elS — ifpon,llfey used - bomb
lumps of nitre for that purpose, placing their
kettles and stew pans on the top, and lighting
a strong fire underneath. As the heat increas
edts-----n-itre slowly melted away, and flowing
down the beach, became mixed up with - the
sand, — forming, when the incorporated mines
cooled dawn, a singularly beautiful-, transpa-
rent substance, which excited the astonish
meat and wonder of the beholders. "
Such is the legend of - tho - origiw ot glass. --
k great many centuries afterward—that.is
to say, toward tha close of the,fifteenth cinttu
ry of- the dilation era-:-when somo of thene
crets of the glass rhOuSe, supposed to 'have,
beenkirown to the ancients, were lost, and the:
simple art of blowing glass -was-but' ifWantily
eultivated—an 'artifieer, whose name has unfor
tunately escaped immortality—while employed
over his crucible accidentally spilt some of the
material ho was melting. Being ,in a fluid
state it ran over the ground, till,jt found its
vray under one of, the large flagstones with
which the place was ptived. --By this time -it
had grown cold, and to his infinite surprise he
sttw that, from the flatness and equality of the
ueface_heuenth at.fine.,it had taben_the_
form of -a slab—a form Ichich could not be
produced by any process , of 'blowing the 'int
Stich was the accident that led to the,diecol
cry of the art of casting Plate Glass..
The importance of glees, and the. infinite.
variety of objects to which it is applicable,
cannot he exaggerated. Indeed, it would be
extremely difficult to enumerate its properties,
or to estintato adequately its value. This thin,
transparentsahstence, so light and fragile, is
onaof the most essential ministers of science
and philosophy, and enters so minutely into
the conCerne 'of life, that it has become indis
pensable to the daily re'utine of our - "justness,
our. wants and our. pleasures. It admits the
sun and excludes the wind, ansWering the
double-purpose of transmitting light and pre
'Benin warmth; it carries the eyes of the as
tronomer to the ' remotest regions - of ppace;.
through the lenseis of the microscope it dgvel
opes now wdrlds of vitality which, without
help, - ntustiiove beet; but imperfectly known
it renews the'sight of the old, and assistd , tho
