GENERAL ScorT NOMINATED FOR THE NEXT PRE-
s,pEScy.-The Courier aud Enquirer comes up
boldly to the mark, and nominaies General Scott
for the next Presidency. This is certainly Well
considered and effective movement IN iavor OF
GeReral Scott. For some weeks past there has
been some serious difficulty between the General
and the War Department, relative 10 the COM
mand of the troops, in the rejected invasion OF
Mexico This difficulty has been increasing IN
interest at Washington, and in bitterness also;
while in importance, it has been diminishing in
an equal ratio, as we received the glorious ntelli-
gence from the Rio Grande. The fact is, while
the military men at Washington, including the
politicians, have been quarrelling about who
should command the army, who should have the
greatest merit, and who should have the leost
blame General Taylor himself, has been solving
all these questions OF the day, in the most efectu
al, simple, and positive method imaginable.


The friends OF Scott therefore, seeing the field
clear, have now brought him forth for the next
presidency, and the movement is certainly wise
one. General Taylor will end the American war
as he began il and isen lsaye Gen1ral Scott
nothine else to attend To- but to manage the Pres
dental campaign, and to take possession Of the
halls Of the White House, instead of the halls of
the Montezumas, at as carly period as possible.
So far, SO good.
