    MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1862.
THE WAR.
"We have startling newß [from the Army of the
Potomac, and much of it we scarcely know how to
comprehend. As we predicted several tiineß dur
ing the last week, so the result has turned out—
the bird has flown, lee’s army has' escaped to
Gordonsvillo. It would have escaped at any rate,
had every gap been held by , our forces weeks ago.
The difficulty began with the surrender of Har
•per’s Ferry. By the surrender of that fortress,
we gave up to the rebels the key to the She
nandoah Valley, and, of course, we have never
,%’een able to look the door’upon them since.
When we know, who .was responsible for that dis
graoe, we will know who is responsible for this last
disgrace of Lee’s escape. The latter was an in
evitable consequence of the former, and no gene
ralship, however brilliant, oould have, prevented it,
the relative strength of the two armies being con
sidered. But. in addition to the dismal tidings of
lee’s escape, whioh was an assured fact when Har
per’s Ferry fell; we have also the news that General
MoClelian has been superseded, and that General
■ Burnside, the next in command, has sneoeedod him.;
The grounds for Mr. Lincoln's action are announced
by us this morning. As will bo seen, they are purely
military, and have reference solely to tho policy
■which should mark the conduct of the war. From
the Army of the Potomac, we ha ve one other piece
of intelligence which is of the utmost importance—so
important, indeed, that we cannot now undertake
to estimate its results. According to our despatches,
Bragg’s army, driven out of Kentucky, has effected
a junction with the rebel army of Virginia. If this
should proro true—and we not only regard it as
credible, but have on several previous occasions eon
'tended that there was imminent danger of such a
movement—we may calculate upon adesperateb&ttle
before the close of the week ; perhaps, once again'
in the region of OentreviUe. If our third cam
paign in Virginia should' prove unsuccessful, we
may thank, in the first place, the treachery which
surrendered Harper’s Ferry, and in the second
place, tho incom potency whioh permitted the
esoapo of Bragg’s army from Kentucky.
AH thefears we had .entertained for the safety of
Nashville are dispelled by the gratifying intelli
gence published this morning. John C. Breckin
ridge has repeated his Baton Rouge exploit. He :
has attaoked a heroic Federal garrison, suffering
for supplies, and has been* repulsed. ■ As to big
strength, our despatches are irreconcilable. Ac
cording to one he had but 3,500 men; another
credited him with 20,000; and a third giveB
him 25,000, exclusive of 3,000 cavalry, under
Morgan. The last statement is probably near
est the truth, for the rebels would not
attack a fortified town, unless they' out
numbered the garrison two or three to one.
Yet, in "this instance, with such a preponderance of
numbers in their favor, they have made the attack
and have failed. General Negieyy with his half
starved command of ton thousand men, has driven
off a rebel army, at least twice his own in num
bers; and as Major General AfoGook has reached
the city, a renewal of the attack need not be ap
prehended. Had the charge of this important
post been entrusted to a less heroic and determined
officer than General Negley, in whose success we
feel an especial pride as Pennsylvanians, we might
have had a repetition, of the Mnnfordsville
affair. To show to what straits his com
mand was reduced for supplies, we reprint a
, single sentence from the last letter of our N ashville
correspondent : <( There are about ten thousand
troops in this city, and, as our supplies ran out
about five weeks ago, foraging is absolutely neces
sary ; and, no matter how strict the commanding
general and regimental officers [may, be, a large
' party seldom goes out without some pilfering epi
sodes transpiring ere the return.” •
The Removal «i General McClellan
Gentral McClellan has been relieved from
tie command of the Army of tie Potomac.
This announcement will create a great deal of
comment throughout the country, although it
has been anticipated by those who have been
carefully watching the course of recent events.
It was purely a. military act, and was the re
sult of military consultation and decision. Al
thoUghrecommendedtotbePresideDtjand.ap-'
. r itwasjonls flaally
resolved upon after a change became inevi
table. t No act of the present Administration
—we might say no Executive act since the be-
ginning ofthe Government—has been the sub
ject of more; .careful deliberation. There was
every possible friendship and good feeling to
i 'wards Gen. McClellan. His many estimable
personal qualities, his services in Western
Virginia, his exertions to strengthen and dis
cipline the army, were fnlly appreciated by
the Government,-and more particularly by the
President of the United States, and that ma-"’
gistrate was at all times his true ancl sincere
friend. The manner in wbioh General Mc-
Cx.ei.ian has conducted, the various cam
paigns committed to his charge has not an
swered the expectations of the country, and
the military men at the bead of the army do
not think his policy the most efficient towards
suppressing the rebellion. The necessary re
sult of these opinions, on the part of our mili
tary authorities, and the anxiety among the
people • for more active and fertile military
measures, is announced this morning in the
order releviing himfrom his present command.
We have no desire to enter into any review
of'the; career of General MoCx.eli.an. We
accept the decision of the President as finally
determining Ms fitness to command the Army
of the Potomac and to carry out the policy of
those who direct our military movements.
We could have wished that a commander in
whose fame we all have felt such a great inte
rest should have led the great army of the Re
public to the end of a triumphant war. We
watched his progress with an interest and an en-
thusiasmonly equalled by the regret with which
-■we witnessed the failare of his many efforts
to overwhelm the enemy in a final and crown
ing victory. We have taken part in no criti
cism upon his military career, because wo
wished to believe in bis ultimate triumph.
As we have sustained General McClellan
we now sustain the President, and we call
upon all true men—upon ail who have sustain
en General McClellan in * the varying for
tunes bf'tbis fearful war—upon all who believe
in the honesty of the President and his earnest
desire to end, this rebellion speedily, by com
pelling repeated and unceasing victories—to
receive this decree patriotically—to refuse to
listen to the appeals of demagogues,'and to
. await swiftly coming events. The new poliey
inaugurated with the rem val of General Mc-
Clellan contemplates hard fighting—earnest
war—rapid marches—the utter ruin of every
source of this rebellion’s strength—short,
quick, decisive campaigns, and speedy peace.
The army is prepared to carry this policy into
effect, and the country will gladly welcome
every evidence of the sincerity and efficiency
With which it is sustained.
Anglo-Somiiern Piracy.
Harper’s Weekly has an amusing cartoon
this week, illustrative of the recent proceed
ings of Pirate Semmes, commanding the
Alabama, under the British flag. It repre
sents Semsies, “ bearded like a pari,” running
off to his boat, the ship in the distance, with
a large quantity off 1 English goods labelled
“ British Insurances,” while John Bull, in a
smock frock, accompanied by a cudgel and
mastiff, stands in an attitude of surprised
alarm, and furiously calls out, “ Hallo ! there,
■Sehmes ; that’s my property. Fair play, you
;rascal! If I’d suspected this, you’d never
-have got out of Livirpool.’ > This pictorial
■commentary illustrates the newspaper state
ment, that “most of the property destroyed
toy Pirate Semmes on board the vessels he'
seized was insured in England, and the loss,
will consequently fall upon Englishmen.” In
the case of the bark Lauretta, where Semmes
violated the British, Portuguese, and. Italian
■ consular seals, all the property belonged to
an Englishman. j
As.the Alabama was got up by subscription
■ among the Liverpool sympathizers, it ought to
'be hoped, but can scarcely be expected, that
the British Government will pay attention to
Semmes, the pixate. It would be a delicate
compliment to him to send a couple of war
-Btfia*»6» to convoy him to England, for the
purpose of being tried as a buccaneer, in the
High Court of Admiralty. England, however,
is capricious in her treatment of pirates.
Captain Gorr and Captain Kinn, who sailed
. under the black flag, plundering and burning
merchant-vessels, and putting tlieir crews in
irons (precisely.as Semmes does), and .some
times carooning them or making them “ walk
the plank,”- (as he will probably, so» e nae
day,) were hung in chairs, bnt Henhy Mono as,
as great a buccaneer as any of them, and who
amassed an immense fortiine by taking and
plundering Portobello and Panama, was re
ceived at Court by Charles 11., who knighted
him and appointed him Governor .of Jamaica.
A more recent example is that of Dr. Bt.Aok
itoußNE, whose life is vainly to ba looked.'for in
most biographical dictionaries and cyclope
dias. In his youth he was a buccaneer, but
repented of his evil ways, entered the minis
try and was made Bishop of Exeter in 1716,
and was promoted to be Archbishop of York,
in 1724, as a reward, it was whispered for se
cretly marrying. George I. to the Duchess of
MrssTER. We see no reason why Semmes,
the pirate, should not be elevated, as well as
Morgan and Blackbourne — but the proper way
of doing this would be, with'the assistance of
a rope. If one of our commanders captures
Semmes, it is probable that, without the delay
of a judicial trial, the pirate will soon find
himself pensile from a yard r arjm. .
The New York Jlbion, avowedly .repre
senting British feeling, strongly condemns the
conduct of Semmes towards the Lauretta, and
strongly says : « We need not stop to narrate
the personaMU-treatment experienced by those
Northern Americans who’fell into this South
ern captain’s bands, nor the particulars of
their subsequent release. We will only say on
this point that his behavior sho wed him to be
devoid of humanity ; in assuming a gratui
tously hostile attitude towards foreign Go
vernments he proved himself devoid of sense.”
It adds, what wo learn with pleasure, that
“ Mr. Burden has naturally cal’ed upon 11. B.
M. consul to complain that his official protection
has been outrageously set at naught; and Mr.
Archibald, just as naturally, has done what
any British consul would do under the circum
stances—-he has communicated with the Bri
tish Admiral at Halifax, tantamount, we take
it, to general orders being issued to her Ma
jesty’s ships on the North American and West
Indian station,- that this insolent rover who
sets neutral rights at defiance shall, if fallen
in with, be captured and carried into a British
port. In fact, under the flagraucy of the
case, we think it mope probable that Vice-
Admiral Sir Alexander Milne will detach a
vessel or two from ins squadron on this espe
. cial service. We trust the errand will be suc
cessful, and that the Alabama may be car
ried into Bermuda under escort.” Mr. Ar
chibald, it is [ said, telegraphed to, the Ad
miral at Halifax, evem before Mr, Burden's
complaint reached, him. The Alabama, is
liable to seizure in any British, port, for
having violated the revenue laws in the'man
ner of her : escape from Liverpool— this, too,
in addition to the forfeiture of her owners’
bond for £20,000. It is satisfactory to find
that Englishmen, on this' side of the great
waters, universally condemn the ’ high-handed
outrages of Semmes, the pirate.
We notice, in a recent English paper, that
the Earl of Clarendon, ex-Viceroy of Ireland
and jßx-l’oreign Secretary of England, lately
visited the iron ship-building yard of Messrs.''
Laird, at Biikenhead, the Camden of Liver
pool. There he saw, not only some monster
iron-clad frigates for the Royal navy, but
“ two iron-clad shell proof rams, of very pe-
culiar shape and construction, rising into
shape under the shed, where the famous ‘ 290’
was put together.” In fact, that particular
shed is called the American, and the shell
proof war-rams, are intended .for the South.
Mr. Laird, who builds them, is a member of
Parliament, and Lord Clarendon is a Privy
Councillor. Do neither peer nor commoner
think of their Royal mistress’ Proclamation
of neutrality, when one built and the other
admired war-rams ordered by the South ? It
is likely as not that Mr. Laird has some
pecuniary interest in tho Alabama, which he
. built. -
LETTER JfKOM'“ OCCASIONAL,”
Washington, Nov. 8, 1862.
Probably the most healthy sign after the
disagreeable aspect of several of the Northern
and Western elections, is the effort making to
show that the Democrats chosen to the next
Congress of the United States will be found
earnestly in favor of a vigorous and rapid
prosecution of the war. . Most of the organs
recently so venomous against the Administra
tion, and so 1 hostile to the war measures of the
last session of tho present Congress, wisely
anticipating that, however successful they
may have been, in deceiving the jjjoplo, it
would prove to be.a most hazardous experit;
ment if they attempted to carry but their, theories
and threats, now indicate quite a resolute de
termination to put down the rebellion and re
store tho Union. This precautionary announce-
ment will probably Be followed by still stronger
expressions, when the fact is made clear to their
minds that the next House of Representatives
will be in the hands of the unconditional
friends of the Administration and the war.
TJM successes of the so-called Democracy
exultingly hailed by all the known sympathi
zers with Secession in this city, may prove to
be valuable admonitions to the Republicans
and loyal Democrats. Had our opponents
carried so many State elections in the fall of
jf,1863, the Presidential contest ■ of 1864 would
| undoubtedly have resulted in their triumph.
But with two years' notice, and with a full
knowledge of the dangerous doctrines- and
schemes of the Breckinridge politicians, the
loyal men will be blind indeed if they do not
take advantage of tbeir position, and prepare
for' coining contests by unity and conciliation
among themselves. We have a powerful ad
vantage in the fact that the Federal Govern
ment is controlled by statesmen who have'
no other object to accomplish but the sup
pression of the rebellion. We did not -lose
a single Governor of a single State in the
late elections, save only in New York;
and although we lost "Wadsworth there, we
..displace Burton in Delaware, and Select Can
non, a thorough-going Union Democrat. The
Governor of every other State,, including all
the Border States, is with the President and
his friends. Chief among these let us class
Governor Pierpont, of Virginia, and Governor
Johnson, of Tennessee. Of the latter we
know nothing that does not prove a self-sacri
ficing heroism which accepts every" remedy
necessary to crush the treason, and dares
every hazard in putting it to trial. The
speeches of Governor Pierpont, while on a
brief visit during the last campaign In Penn
sylvania, to the people of Chester county,
breathed the noblest patriotism; and his tes
timony against slavery was so overwhelming
that it carried conviction to every honest
heart. With such men at the head of the
loyal State Governments in dhe South, co->
operating with the chief magistrates of the
North, educating and stimulating the common
mind, we start out with high hope upon other
campaigns. The great shock of a terrific po
litical conflict has passed, and wo still retain
the citadel of the Federal Government, hold
.all the outposts of the; State Governments,
with one exception, and remain entrenched in
both branches of the Congress of the United
States. Those who have defeated tia in
certain Congressional districts, and who have
ginned probably throe Senators of the United
States, will find little encouragement to pur
sue any other tut a patriotic course, if the
Vast power and just principles of the General
and State Administrations referred to are
carefully husbanded and advocated. Nor.
must we forget that, while we have been as
sailed, and, in some cases, damaged by able
and crafty politicians, who used the name of
Democracy to weaken the constituted autho
rities, there are hundreds of tearless Demo
cratic leaders in the army who were forced to;
be silent in the late elections,- but who, in
their time and turn, will come forward,
backed by the hosts that have suffered
by their: side, to oppose the politicians who
have abused the Democratic name, and to
strengthen the Administration, which has done
its best to promote their comfort, and to give
a successful direction to the operation of the
war. Not a day shonld, therefore, be lost by
the loyal men of the United States in earnest
preparations for the elections of 1803-’Ol.
The garni of the Opposition, now revealed, is to
acquire present strength, sotkat when the war is
closed they may vote in concert with the headers
of the existing'rebellion jand restore th,ese\lead
ers to the dangerous ascendency, by which and
from which they hurled such fatal missiles at
the integrity of the Republic.

Letter from General Halleck to the
The Grounds for, General McClellan’s
(Special Despatch to The Press.] -
Washington, November 0
-The following important, correspondence will
perhaps give Borne of the reasons which actuated
our War Department in recommending the Presi
dent to make a change in the command of the
Army of the Potomac :
Hon . E. M. Stanton, Secretary'of War: —
Bin: In reply to the general interrogatories con
tained in .your letter of yesterday,. I have the
honor to report:
First. That requisitions for supplies to the army
under General McClellan are made by His staff
officers on the Chiefs of Bureaus here; that is, the
Quartermaster applies by his Chief Quartermaster
on Quartermaster General; for commissary supplies
by his Chief Commissary on Commissary Gene
ral, Ac. ■ : ,■ '■
No such requisitions have been, tb my know
ledge. made upon the Secretary of War, and none
upon the General-in Chief.
Second. On several occasions, General Mc-
Clellan has telographod me that his army was
deficient in certain supplies. All these [telegrams
were immediately referred to the heads of bureaus
with orders to report. It was ascertained that in
every instance .the requisitions have been -imme
diately filled, except where the Quarterma ter Ge
neral had been obliged to send from Philadelphia
certain articles of clothing, tents, etc , not haring a
full supply here.
There has not been, so far as I could ascertain,
any neglect or delay, in any department or bureau,
in issuing all tho supplies asked for by General
McClellan, or by the officers of his staff.
- Delays have occasionally occurred in forwarding
supplies by railroad on account of the crowded
condition of the railroad depots, or of a want of a
sufficient number of oars; but, whenever notified
of this fact, agents have been sent out to remove
.the difficulty under the . excellent superintendence
of Gen. Haupt. I think those delays .have been
less frequent and of shorter duration than is usual
ly the case with freight trains'. An army of the
size of that under.General.McClellan will frequent
ly be for some days without the supplies it has
asked for,'on account of a neglect in making timely
requisi ions for thorn, and unavoidable delays in
forwarding them and distributing them to the dif
ferent brigades and regiments.
From all the information that I can obtain,
I am of the opinion that the requisitions
from that army have been filled more prompt
ly, and that the men, as a general rule, have
been better supplied, than in theoase of our armies
operating in the West. The latter have operated
at much greater distances from the souroes of sup
plies, and have had far less facilities for transpor
tation. In fine, I believe that no armies in the
world in campaigning have been more promptly or
better supplied than ours. ~
Third. Soon afior the battle of Antiotam, General
McDlellan was urged to give me information of his
intended movements, in order that if he moved be
tween the enemy and Washington the. reinforce
ments could be sent from this place. On the first of
October, finding that he purposed to operate from
Harper’s Ferry, I urged him to oross.the river at
once and give battle to the enemy, pointing out to
him the disadvantages of delaying till the autumn
rains had swollen the Potomac and impaired the
roads. On the 6th of October he was peremptorily
ordered to cross the. Potomac and give battle to
the enemy, or -drive him South. I said to him :
“ Your army must mov nowh, while the roads are
in good' condition.” It will be observed that
three weeks have elapsed since that order wa3
given,
Fourth, in my opinion there has been , no such
•want of supplies in the army under General
McClellan as to prevent his compliance with my
orders to advance upon thf enemy.
I Had be moved his army to the south side of the
Potomac, he could have received his supplies almost
as readily as by remaining inactive bn the north
ride.
Fifth. On the seventh ofOctober, in a'telegram
in regard to his intended movements," Gen. Mo-
Ciellan stated that he would require at least three
days to supply the first,-fifth, and sixth corps jjhit.
..they needed shoes,-and other _indi»jp«“ ! ' ao io articles
.of olothiDg,_as.wßn-o<j-sti'eirer- tents. No complaint
was made to nte that his army requisitions had not
been filled, ambit was inferred from his language
thathe- wss Only waiting for the distribution of his
supplies. • - 1
On the eleventh of October he telegraphed to me
that a portion of his supplies sent by railroad had
been delayed, As already stated; agents were imme
diately sent from here to investigate this complaint,
and they reported that everything had gone forward
on the same'date, the 11th.
General McClellan spoke of many of his horse 3
being broken down by fatigue.. On the 12thof
October he complained that the rate of supply was
only one hundred and fifty horses per week for
his entire army there and m fronf of Washington,
I immediately directed the Quartermaster Gene
ral to inquire into this matter, and report why
a larger supply was hot furnished to General Mc-
Clellan.
General Meigs reported to me, on the 14th of
October, that the average issue of horses to General
McClellan’s army in the field and in front of
Washington, for the previous six weeks, had been
1,469 per week, or 8,754 in all.
In addition, he reported to me that a large num
ber of mules had been supplied, and that the num
ber of these animals with General McClellan’s
army on the Upper Potomac was over 3,100.
He also reported to me that he was then sending
that army all the horses he could procure.
On the ISth of October, General McClellan stated,
in regard to General Meigs’ report that he had
filled every requisition for shoes and clothing:
“ General Meigs may have ordered these artiofes to
be forwarded;; but they might as well (remain in
New York or Philadelphia, so far as my army is
concerned.” I immediately called Gen. Meigs’
attention to this apparent neglect of his depart
ment, -
On the 25th of October, he reported as the result
of his investigation that 4,800 pairs' of boots and
shoes had been received by the quartermaster of
McClellan’s army at Harper’s .Ferry, Frederick,
and Hagerstown. Twenty thousand pairs were at
Harper’s Herry Depot on 21st, and that ten thou
sand more vrero on their way, and fifteen thousand
more had been ordered.
Colonel Ingalls, aid-dc-camp and chief of staff
to General MoCiellaß, telegraphed on the 25th as
follows: “ The suffering for want of clothing is ex
aggerated, I think, and certainly might have been
avoided by tiincjy requisitions by the regimental
and brigade commai dors.” On the 2-l.th of October
he telegraphed to: Quartermaster General Meigs
that the clothing was not detained in the ears at
the depots. “ Such complaints are groundless.
The fact is the clothing arrives and is issued* but
more is still wanted. I have ordered mote than
would seem necessary from any data furnished
•me, and I beg to remind you that you have always
very promptly met my requisitions. As far as
clothing is concerned, out department is not at
fault. It provides as soon as due notice is given,
l ean foresee no time when an army of over. 100,000
men will not call for clothing and other articles.”
In regard to General McClellan’s means of
promptly communicating the wants of his army to
me, or to the proper bureaus of the War Depart
ment, I report that, in addition to the ordinary
mails, he has beenin hourly communication with
Washington by telegraph. . -y-. .
, It 3b due to General Meigs that I should submit
herewith a copy of a telegram received by him
from General McClellan.
Very respectfully, your ob-dient servant,
H. W. Halleck, General-in-Chief.
PROM M’CLELLAN’S HEADQUARTERS—TO HR IGA
"jour despatch of this date is received. I have
never intended, in any letter or despa'ch, to make
any accusation against yourself or your Department
for not furnishing or forwarding clothing as, rapidly
as it was possible for you to do so. Ibelieve every
thing has been done that could bedohe in this re
spect. The idea that I have tried to convey was
that oertain portions of the command were without
olothing, and that the army would not move until
it was supplied. ' G. B. McClellan,

themselves in readiness to suppress any tumult. Judging
from the temper Of the people on the street this after
noon, lam inclined to think that Monday and Tuesday
