Scott, written by him self." whi?a have heen promised for seven months, and on weich the. General has heen engaged for nearly two years. The' ore comprised in two volumes, and extend down to, 'he, period when he re tired from active service. The latter years, however, are but brie Gy touched. We extract Leiotv some interesting par ticulars of Gen. Scott's share in the events which immediately preceedttd the present war, as well as incidents in the Lieutenant Geueral's earlier career. Scott, a? a young lawyer, wis present at the tnai of Aaron Kiirr. He concerning Burr's acquittal: writes.! "This is to be regretted not that the thirst for blood was nut slaked on the oc casion; hut because, there never haviisg been an execution in the United Sirica for the highest of crimes, our people were, in ar.d ISfil, still untaught a roost needful lesson the playing a' treason is a dangerous game! Hence to threaten treason has bacon. an ordinary party device in nominaim Pre?ident. and in factious debates even en the fl nir of Congress; hence, nullificaiicn in 15Ti2-'o-3, and hence the present ( iri") mighty rtbellio'n. It i a striking fact that three of our ex Vice President? Aaron Burr, J. C Ca!hot;n and J. C. j Breckinridge became, eoch in his day. a leader of treason. I HOW VICtORII ARE JU-vCTD. ' When the victory of Bueni Viia readied Major General Brooke, (a ircle old soldier,) commanding at New Or leans, and a friend ;f Major General Taylor, he rushed with th report in hand through' the streets to the Exchn-, nd threw the whole ciiy-iato a f renzy of joy. By and by came the new? that the ?ar nud stripes waved ovr Vera Cruz and its castle, and "Brooke, aho a friend oi mine, w.ts aaain ear to spread the re- v, "I 1 1 111 port. cnieDody in me crown cancel cut, IIuw maamea has Soctt Lt?' Brooke was delighted to reply. 4J.es than a hun dred.' 'That won't do,' wt-.s promptly rejoined. 'Taylor always loses thou sands. He is the man for my money.' Only a few faint cheers were heard lor Vera Cruz. The lone: butcher'.-, bill was wanted. When I received-friend Brooke's letter giving'thes? details, I own that my poor human nature wis piqued for a mo ment ; and I said: 'Nevermind. Taylor is a l-.OUlsiuiftM. Wo ehll ii Jo ti'nc' liear the voire of the middle, the norih ern and eastern Slates. They will esti mate vicioiies on different principles.'- But I was mistaken. The keynote raised ia New Orleans was taken up all oer the land. GEN. SCOTT S WARDING TO BCCHA.IAir. October 22. I emphatically, as has been seen, called the attention of the President to the necessity of strong gar rieons in all the forts below the principal commercial cities of the Southern State, including, by name, the forts in Pensa cola harbor, etc. October 31. I suggested to the Sec retary of War that a circular should at once be sent to such of those fens as had garrisons, to be on the alert against surprises and sudden assaults. , After a long confinement to my bed in New. York, I cacie to this city, (Wash ington) December-12. Next day I per sonally urged upon the Secretary of War the same views, viz : Strong garrisons in th Southern forts those of Charleston and Pccsacc'a harbors, at cr.ee ; those on Mobile lay and the tVlississipp:, be low New Orleans, next, etc.. etc. I again pointed out the organized companies and the recruits at the principal depots avail able for the curpore. The Secretary .t i&iscdlaximis. d?d not concur in oue of - my view?, when 1 1 begged Lin to procure for ma an early cerview n-;:h ihe Fre?:dect, tbat I i trsisht make o;je. flfvrt rayre to save tbe j Ivtti and the Urioa. hy appoiSinieat, u;e secretary accom- A:i-uti i 1, says that ho has a telegram ! : , . - of ibai datrf from Hardee, wno sr.yj tbat ! 5,.vvhen tae .an:e top.es, tece.;s:on:s::i, .

To which I replipd, ftrrt. Thru s many men cou'd cot be with drawn from that garrison, tut could Le .aten frim Nev York. Next, that it would thca b loo late, rs the South Car olina Comct:s:oners would have the gamo in their own haruis-by first using and then cutting the wires; that, as here wa? not a soldier in Fort Sumter, any handful o? arn:l fcetewioniits might seie and occupy it, etc. Here the remark may be permitted, that, if tbe Secretary's ih'ree hundred men had then (or seme time later) been eut to Forts Moultrie and Sumter, bcth wovd now have been in the po:ts$tcn of the United States, and not a battery behw them, could have been erected by iht Secessionists. Contequemly, the ac cess to those fcria .from the sea would now (the end of March, 1861,) be un obstructed and free. On the reception of Mr. Floyd, et Richmond, tho Examiner pronounced a ulogy upon hirn in which the following passage occur.? : The invented by General Scctt to stop secession was. like all other cam-. nrii'Tts devised bv h'UMvery-' alJrr Wi-m je,aiis au.j lltariy certaioof general suc- coss. -The bouthern btates are rtnl of arsenals and fort, commanding thir rivers and strategic poimi. Gen. Scon desired to transfer the army of the Unit ed Slates to these fori? as speedily and as quietly as possible. The Suutnern States could not cut cfT communication between the Government and th fort resseses without a great fleet, which they cannot build for years or take them by !;tnd without one hundred thousand men, many hundred million dollars, several . .ampaisn and many a bloody seiv. Had Scon been able to have got these forts in the condii'lan he desired them to he, the Southern Confederacy would not now exil. The same day. December lo, I wrote the following nc? : "Lieutenant General S ou begs th President to pardon him for supplying, iu this note, what he omitted to say th:s mornincr,' at the interview with whtcn he was honored by the Pr-ilent. 1. Long prior to the Force bit! (March 2, 1533), prior to The iss;;e of his prcvbmaiion. and, in part, prior to ". passage cf the ordinance of nullification President Jackson, under the eel of ?rarch 3. !S7 -Huthrizing the employ ment of tte land and naval forces" can -e-J rein-forcemc-ii'.s to bo scut to Fort Mouhtre. u,d a thiop-of-war (the Natchfts). with two revenue cutters, to be sent tc Charles ton harbor Qiii u- der Sc.xr). in order to prevent th seizure of that fat by the utilizers; and i3. To insure the execu tion of the revenue laws General Scott himself arrived at Chariest.m the day fter the passage of the ordinance oi nullification." and many of "the addi tional companies were then en route for the me destination. President Jackson famaiiarly said at the time : "That by lHe asseinl'laau ' those forces, for lawful purposes, he was not making war upon South Carclira ; bat that if South Carolina ettaiA-ed, it would be South Carolina that made war bpon the United States." General Scott, who received h-s first instruction (oral) from President Jack son, in the temporary absence cf the Secretsry of War (General Cass), re members those expressions well.
