Scott through the medium of the mighty military transactions that have taken place within the last year, and truly they seem very diminutive. In the war of 1812 he was second in command in the battles of Chippewa and Lundy's Lane — hard-fought engagements between some eight or ten regiments, the sum total of the forces on both sides — on neither occasion reaching ten thousand men. It does not appear from any account we have read that there was any manæovering — anything calculated to bring out any other quality of a General than stu been courage.

But in this country his pigmy exploits continued to be regarded as miracles of generalship, although he was but second in command, and caused him to be still looked upon as a great tactician. His Mexican campaign, undertaken after Gen. Taylor had already d
