®l)e JDatln fiozL OFFICIAL PAPER OF T-BE citt. PITTSBURGH! MONDAY »iorning::::::::::-nov. 11 For Afternoon and Midnight Tele graph and Local News See First and Third Rages.' THE BATTLE OP BELMONT. Our people are getting very much dis gusted with the deceptive announce ments placarded upon bulletin boards to sell papers and, as it turns out, the public. We are all anxious to be grati fied, but will not consent to have the momentary gratification of an announce ment that the rebels have suffered a Waterloo defeat, when the very dispatch upon which the joyful intelligence is predicated repeals a totallydifferentstate offsets. A penny profit does not justify jokes. Tho only excuse to be off ered is ignorance. We are not the only suffer ers in this matter: it is common to every city. The Chicago Post, in commenting upon -the first announcements of the fight at Belmont, states the following bitter truths:— “ Bot long is it expected that Ibis great, and wealthy, and powerful, and determlned.people will contentedly submit to a rule-that ’mures a series of disgraceinl defeats and does nothing but promise vie* tory in the end ? The whole might of the North can be called forth to deal the final crushing blow to the rebellion ; but the whole might of the North may, alßo, bo called forth to correct evils, punißh blun< ders and banish imbecility in our own midst. Let those in authority lake timely warning. “ The latest failure of our arms was the leastexpeoted. Who could have been guilty beforehand of attempting bo to depreciate officers in the command at Cairo as to accuse thaw of a purpose to stimulate the enemy and permanently strengthen his arms by entering his territory with an in sufficient force and giving him battle, when it was dear to the dimmest vision that the only prospeot was a bloody fight, and tho only issue a total defeat? Who, if any. body, is commanding the army ? Who is planning the battles ? To our uninitiatod eyes it looks as though the army was cut up into something less than divisions, for the purpose of affording numbskulls, with Bpurs on their heels, opportunities of throw-, ing their legs over a saddle, and leading men out to be live targets for the enemy's rifles. A child might porcievo that this mode of conducting a life and death campaign for the Republic will be surely fatal; but even the scrutinizing observers cannot see what steps the administration are taking, or what disposition they have to take any steps to correct this fatal evil. It is not howevur, difficult to see that under these oft recurring humiliating de feats, the people are becoming distrustful and restive.” GENERAL SCOTT. HIS -DJSPAKTUKK FOli EUROPE PREDICTION REGARDING THE WAR. As wo anticipated, the reception given to the veteran Scott by the people of Hew York, was everyway worthy of him and them. He received tho Chamber of Com' merce and the Union Defence Committee on Friday, on which occasion ho made the following statements and prediction!: ‘‘l go, gentlemen, across the ocean, for a short period, and for a special purpose, for the chance of getting rid of thi3 dix’. z’nes, which perplexes me almost every moment, and in the hope of finding some relief for the infirmities I have labored under for many yeais, and which have been greatly increased by tho unccas. ing labors of tho last ton or eleven months. It is my expectation to return again to that country to which I am, like your selves, nobly devoted. All that country— I mean the Union— commenced with tho good old thirteen States—l hope will soon be made up again to its thirty.four. Al though I have been compelled to retire from tho field, I have the consolation to bo able to assure you that the command of tho army Is in competent hands—my opinion on the subject may have some weight with you. “I leave in the field Generals of great ability—Msjor Generals McClellan and Halleck—of a high order of intellect, of scientific attainments, of much ability in all military affairs, and of excellent judg. ment and discretion. Undor their com mand and those of tho Brigadier Generals I have no doubt that in their hands the destinies of the country will be safe and 1 have no doubt that they will achieve a successful and honorable peace within a few months, and that the great blessings of peace will again be restored to ub with m a reasonable period, “I have considerable confidence in the administration of the country. Ido not Bpeak of party confidence, for I have long ceased to be a party man. I have great confidence in the President. He is a man of genius, untiring zeal and conscientious ness. It is due from me to say that he is not a President of my making; I had no put or lot in his election. I confess that he has agreeably disappointed me. He is a man of great ability, fldelityand patriot ism. I cjuld speak in a similar manner of several members cf the Cabinet, but I forbear.” ’ x On Saturday the General sailed in the Arago, and was escorted to the veesel by a large crowd of citizens. J The ecene m the street opposite the pri vate entrance of the hotel as the party emerged interesting. An im prpmpta crowd was the result of the first noticeable movement, and the. General Dade a considerable number of those who assembled an affectionate farewell. The eMua tne young alike crowded around ceSt^ * and ’“ d with the sin nardno^L 60 ! aDd uttered their ' Tke w Beleh s O S“ S h t e:e de th r : ,l^ y l ° ‘ ha footot whence all £y^SSS? # ? ,er f rag ° lay ’ '•board.

This officer, who succeeds Fremont in the command of the Western division, is highly spoken of in various quarters. His-reputation is such that even the parlizans of Fremont in Missouri antici pate great success under his command. He will, no doubt, for some time find himself placed in circumstances requir ing the utmost energy of mind and body ; but he will prove himself able for the sternest duties which may be imposed upon him. In the meantime the removal of Gen. Fremont makes no considerable impression among any save his immediate followers. Why should it ? Before superseding the veteran Harney, he had not been in the army, had no military knowledge or experience, and his course in the teeth of the de clared policy of the President, of law and rules and regulations of the army, had driven thousands upon thousands of Unionists into the embrace of Seces- siomsm The New York Herald informs us that Don Quixote O'Brien and Sancho Panza Berkley, tho former of whom dis tinguished himself in raising rebellion in Ireland in 1848, and leading the forlorn hope in tho celebrated battle of “Slure* gamon,” offers himself as mediator between our government and the rebel Stales.— Grantley_ Berkley, who thinks he under* stands this country because he once trav eled through part of it in company with two big, useless dogs,—which learned as much as their master during the journey— advises us to sottlo our quarrel by imme diately recognizing tho Southern Oonfed* eracy. What a curious world this is, to be sure. 11 is very amusing to see a creature like O'Brien—silly, but well meaning— advertising himßelf and soliciting cur pa tronage as “a gentleman whose long expe rience and intimate connection with well known unsuccessful Insurrections amply fit him to act as a mediator in any little affair in that line.” It is equally funny to hear Grantley Berkley—a fellow whose trains lie in his boots, and who understands noth ing but the settlement of “bogus bets cn the turf—offering us advice about a matter of national concern. They are a prettv pair, truly. If Don Quixote.aDd Sancho Panza should revisit the “glimpses of sunlight,” their mediation and advice would be just about as soon asked, regarded, accepted and respected. Mb.. Tiiublow Wkkd, whose projected visit to Europe has given rise to so many baseless on diis, says in the Albany Jour nal that he intends to sail on Saturday—, that he goes in “a personal and private capacity and character.” This is a brief farewell: “Our visit abroad is In an unofficial character. If we cherish the hope of ren dering any-service, however Blight, to our ountry, it is as a volunteer, and without compensation.” . “At borne, for unatoly, the government ib not stinted, in men or money. There is no lack of BtroDg arms, gallant snirits and devoted hearts, for the Held. 'May the good trod imbao our rulers with the wis dom and genius required so to direct and, guide our armies and navy as will pre serve our government and Union ” tjUEER Muskets.—A firm in Scotiand ce.ebrated for tho manufacture of steel' has recently contracted to furnish the brunch government with muskets so can structed that they well dUchargo fceriatim through ono barrel 10 calridges, by means of a slide containing 10 chambers. When the contents of the slides are fired off another loaded slide can be inserted by the so d?er in a few seconds, by which d*J shots can be discharged in ono minnle.

Sikvrss IN Husinkss, -The grand se cret of success as in business is to stick to one thing —Who ever know anybody to do this tor ten years without accomplish, ing his ends.' Continual dropping wears away tho rock; the highest obstacles be come at length es cobweb barriers before a never- flagging energy. Go out in spring, when the sun is yot lar distant, and you can scarcely feel the influence of his beams, scattered as thev are over the wide face of creation; but collect those beams in a focus, and thev kindle up a flame in an instant. So the man that squanders his talents and his strength on many things will fail to make an impression with either; but let him draw them to a point; let him strike at a single object, and it will yield before him ' About Mr. Seward, The Philadelphia North American tells this story of Secretary Seward : “Hon. William Seward, Secretary of j State, passed through the city yester [ day morning, at 11 o’clock, on his way i from New York to Washington. Mr ‘ S «» rd haa a weakness whenever pos ' Slble for traveling incog. He is an inveterate smoker. When he enters a ' P asBeß ger train he seeks the smoking ear, and finds beatitude in puffing La Normas until the end of his ride Be tween New York and this city he occu pied a seat with a pleasant looking ge nms, who talked about ‘that d—-d fool Seward during the whole trip, lhe stranger supposed his fellow trav eler to be a sutler’s book-keeper. Mr Seward pitched into himself in a most scandalous manner, second- • mg overy objnrgation of the stran-i ger with hearty emphasis. When the latter observed Mr. Seward identified I and saluted by gentlemen on the host, j is feelings oan be better imagined ! than descnoed. The last seen of him ! by our informant he was hiding behind 1 the steamer’s smoke-stack." Safety of the Capital.' So much has been said of the safety of Washington, and so many complaints have come from the Western depart, ment, that a sufficient number of troops had been concentrated at this point that a few words upon the probable pn> gramme of Gen. MoOJellan may not be inopportune. Now that he is clothed 1 with supreme power, and a thousand ' ardent expectations are indulged that I he may win a conclusive victory, it is I well to state that he has never faltered ; in the beliefthat it waa hisfirßt 'dutvtol Pi? eralS b ? gad t No one wonl<l see that the national capital was put in I k? aD y thlD g iess brigades, and a poaition of impugnable deforce and “ poor oom . £ at movement should be until 1 7 ! * 7° °° U d Bcarcel y- in h.a flett)ed the natural course of events, have Blnff' 7 d ' hoped f to «°mma,,d a company for -“Jiff, a large number of • y ears to . come - Skeleton regiments taken from hia militarv diatrW i were “onstrnoted in order that ‘Colo, sent to other points. fj a cl th ’ aDd ri6 ' 8 ’ might hang their shakos on the noissanoe been crowned bv the r^° 0D ” horsea, and Colonels were made because ofLeesburg—had McCall been emfoiM they Basd they" had regiments, which to effect a junction with Stone and if Were on ‘? “bstract creations.

Camc JL)\VIi.HT, ) Os .MaTTA WOMAN CkBEK, > .November sth, 1861, J Dbar Post:— When last wrote you, I little thought that wh should remain in cam{> here up to this date; but, as general military movements are so uncer* tain, ono knows not what a day may bring forth. From present appearances, however, 1 should judge that we will make this spot our quarters lor some lime. We have moved our camp from the former sit uation (in an open field) to a thick wood near by, thus affording us a betteh shelter from ihecold&'d stoims.that of late be came quite uncomfortable. We have had several severe frosts already, and on Satur day last ono of the heaviest storms of rain and witfd that I have ever witnessed passed over u?, leveling quite a number of our tents and completely saturating tho ground within our bunks. Very few have come under my observation who preserved a dry skra upon that memorable occasion. Tho . air has continued quite chilly up to the pres ent date, and quinine has become quite a marketable article in consequence. We have devoted to cur use as a hospital a log cabin formerly occupied by one of the darkeys bel.nging to tho'plantation. It answers our present purpose admirably, being dry and comfortable. But should our sick list increase one of more ample diraoneions must bo procured, otherwise some of the sick must bn sent to general hospital at Washington At present there are qu'-riond at tin- hb • v»- p!*rt\ njc'rdintr to report, (7) tv/e! ve ras- but rone ol k serious nature.

It has caused groat anxiety tor fn-mo word from Lome This irregularity will soon be obviat.od, as we have now in keeping a Horse to bo used exclusively by the mad carrier. Our Adjutant, who ha* just returned from a scout along the river, reports that heavy firing of artillery r.nd musketry was \ lainly heard along the route, but at wbst punt the action (if it was one) bad taken place, he was unubio to say. LL- also reports that while riding along the banka in company with General Sit kies and staff, the enemy threw several short at them, All foil sburt save one, which exploded quite a distance overhead, doing no injury whatever. The regiments oi Artillery which accom pany our division have their pieces planted opposite Creek, and place the rebel steamer “ Page" in rather warm quarters —in fact, shod caged. The regimonts of our brigade (tickles’) still occupy their respective Htuations, re ported to you in mv last. The Fif.h (with the Gnit-.i States /. *uave Cadets) stationed at Port Tobacco.

In hid letter to the Izondon Times, dated October <, Mr. Kussell make? the following criticism upon the man ner in which our army is officered. He says : ‘■The rank and file are equal to their work. The want of proper officers is felt most in the cavalry and in the ar tillery, ns well as in tho Quartermas ter’s Department. Talk --f tho system of purchase in our army ! If any one will turn to the New Tort papers, he will see plenty of advertisements which show that purchase of commissions of suoh sort as never should be tolera ted, is not unknown in the United States. One gentleman offers the sum of 20 pounds for a lieutenant's com mission ‘in a regiment actually in the field.’ Another has a company to dis pose of on moderate terms. A third is anxious to get a regiment all to him self. Political intrigues and low can vassing are also at work, for the colo neloy of a regiment is a political as well as a military position, and gives a man a status in the eyes of tho people of his State which is useful when the war is over. Put all this arises necessitate rei. Here is a prodigious force rapid iy rising towards the number voted by Congress, out of the ground as it were, to be officered as best it may. under all the forms of election and voting famil iar in Republics, and known, outofthe military world, in constitutional mon archic. The original regular army whion did not exceed 20,000 men, was deprived of many of its officers by’ tho seceded States. The gentlemen in private life who had received a military education at West Point were divided according to their States, and furnish ed an inadequate contingent to the ar mies on both sides. The result was, that all the regular army officers re ceived promotion enough to turn their heads; lieutenants and oaptaing became These men are at onoe distinguishable by their air, their long hair and the uncouth way in which they wear their uniforms. But, after all, the wonder really is that the army is bo well officer ed as it is, and the numbet of men of fine faces and figures, with the appear anoe and manner of the soldier about them, which one sees in. the streets and in the camps, shows what a large military element there must have been among the American people, for the class of which I speak, is out of all proportion to the habits cf the people, and yet it has dropped easily and nat urally into the discharge gf military duties. It will be long, however, be fore the whole mass is thoroughly leav ened with the spirit of discipline and obedience. There is no certainty about the operations of troops under such circumstances, and they will be liable to such occurrences as took place the other night, when in a sim ple movement from contiguous oamps, two oolumns of Federalists began to blaze away at eaoh other, and inflioted loss on both sides before the mistake was discovered.” t xctiange of Prisoners. General McClellan heartily approves the proposition for an exchange of pris oners. This has been his sentiment from the start, and believe the 'majori ty of the Cabinet have always taken the same side. General MoClellan’s views are sustained by his confidential friend, the distinguished cx-Attomey General Edwin M. Staunton. lie de clares that “the principle of an exchango of prisoners is demanded by the highest considerations of policy and humanity,” Have, thererore, no doubt, that some arrangement will be made, in a very short time, by which our absent and beloved fellow-citizens in the Southern prisons may be restored to their fami lies and friends. The reasons for re fusing Bueh an arrangement have pass ed away. The highest considerations require that the health and lives of our captured fellow-soldiers should alone be taken into view. Etiquette and diplo' rnatio forms have too long impeded the consummation of this importan t arrange ment. It is related that a Spanish king found himself seated by a blazing fire. He could not remove himself, and he was burned to death because “the gen» tleman in waiting,” whose business it was to attend upon the royal ohair could not be found ! In this progros' sive age thr re is nothing more embars rassing than the unreasoning assertion of mere theories at the expense of practical results.
