a post, when the Mexicans did not try to take them? How could he lose a detachment, when the enemy was always on the trot? Upon the basis of this one campaign, old Scott is accustomed to class himself with the great captains of the world. His flatterers published in the newspapers that the Duke of Wellington pronounced him the greated Captain of the age. We doubt very much whether the Duke of Wellington ever spent a thought upon him, and his petty achievements. The Duke of Wellington had seen war in India, in the Peninsula, and in Flanders. He had commanded at Assy, at Vimeira, at Oporto, at Talavere, at Busaco, at Fuentes d'onoro, at Badajos, at San Sebastian, at Salamanes, at Vittoria, at Thoulouse, at Waterloo, He had defeated in the field, such men as Junot, as Victor, as Soult, as Massena, as Marmont, as Jourdan, as Ney, as Napoleon him self. It is not credible that such a man should have pronounced such a judgment upon the small potato doings of old Scott in Mexico.
