SATURDAY MORNING, NOV 15 - - - LIBERATED FROM THE- BAS TILE. A number of gentlemen, who were in carcerated in a loathsome prison in Wash ington, upon imaginary charges, and re leased the ether day without explanation, passed through our city last evening on their way to tbeir respective homes.— These enlarged captives paid us a visi t yesterday, and we refer the reader to our local column, for anj account of their in carceration, mat treatment and release.— Let the reader peruse this statement, and then reflect that it is not an extract from the history of England, during the war of the roses, nor a chapter depicting the hor . rors of the Eastile of the French revolu tion, but a simple recital of personal suf fering, inflicted by our boasted govern ment upon its own citizens. Let the reader ponder upon this brief narrative, if he has patience, and see how it contrasts with similar persecutionsOf what we glibly term the dark ageg The tales of the Spanish inquisitions and English star-chamber proceedings, have -been held up as the scandal of those who sustained them ; but we will venture to say that the Spanish inquisition—which was principally used to panish the Moorish enemies of Spain, not her own people—was little worse than the system of persecution invented by our War Department. There was in fact some exensefor 4ittb --- fniaisliiiig the Moorish Mahomedans as she did. Those fierce and fanatical soldiers had overrun nearly one half of Asia and Africa, when they invaded Spain. For seven centuries they struggled for the mastery of permanently inhabiting portions of the Spanish soil. A different race, wild with the furious belief of the Mussulman, which inflicted unheard of tor ments upon the proud Castilians, could expect nothing but the severest retaliation. Whether justified in their proceedings against the Moor, or not, the reader will judge for himself. One thing we know, that her inquisition has been held up as among the cruelest of tortures, of even the remote era in which it was established ; but when we reflect-upon that era and our own, and that count 6 then and our own country now, on that nation's institutions then and mars, until a few months ago; we are forced to de clare that the proceedings of the inquisi tion were excusable, compared to the out rages which have been inflicted by the order of our War Department upin inn& cent and loyal citizens. Arrested without a charge, where courts are open ; incar cerated without a - word of explanation ; and dismissed, _after months of imprison. ment, without a hearing, were not had enough ; but the ingenuity of the fanatic invented an oath, which each of his vic tims is compelled to take, to the of that rl he wit/ not institute or sane to be instituted any suit against any authority of the United Stated fur hid imprison meal. It would appear indeed that human na ture is the same always, and that the tor• tures inflicted by a Robespierre are to be einalted in a more civilized community than that of Paris in his day. But the occasion which produced such monsters always creates an avenger of the people's injuries, and sooner or later vengeance overtakes their oppressors. Heaven grant that there may be no such trial in store for our groaning country, and that no dramatist may hereafter find in the pres ent troubles of our nation incidents upon which to build more bloody dramas than have been written upon the horrid pro ceedings of the French revolution, and the atrocious secrets of her Hostile. I in /114 .443CLELLANII REMOVAL. It looks ita if the enemies of Genera, McClellan intended to rely upon the flimsy communication of Gen. Halleck, to the War Department, as containing sufficient reason for his removal from the command of the Army of the Potomac.. This is a great blinder ; they should put John Covode at work with Ilia committee, and make out a circumstantial case .against the discarded General. He could easily do it., upon the testimony of suborned I witnesses, who, like himself, are willing to . testify to anything for a proper consider ation. The communication of Halleck is not enough to satisfy the people that Gen. McClellan is either incompetent to lead 1 1 ' the army or insubordinate to those in all. thaeity. The National Intelligence,., al luding to this, makes the following point, which the late pro slaverybut now ab olition Halleck ought to explain : "It will be observed, however, from the date of the letter of General Halleck, that gives reasons which might have been OG: -.. lurged in explanation of the removal of eneral McClellan some two or three eeks ago, if that ate had then been ta- ien by the Administeion, As he was re- ;; rained in command after these representa- I ;time by General Halleck; we are led to infer that these charges against him were Satisfactorily explained, and that he is now !fslievedfor reasons other than those which ;pre assigned in this communication, or :u}that his removal, if previously resolved pon by the President, (as has been inti -4 tinated by several journals supposed to be the confidence of the Administration) as held in suspense for some undesigna- Ad reason of State policy . The former of these suppositions s strengthened by the ;M i gatemenc made in the Morning Chronicle oat which we copy the letter, and which Says ' in introducing the communication, that the removal of General McClellan was Made for reasons which appeared "con add*sive" to the Administration, and it ms that "these reasons will doubtless be coade public, should the interests of the untry demand their •diselNiice. The 'Monelusive reasons" therefore, are some thing tither than those contained in the subjoined letter, and have not yet been `firitmlosed." is 'llyhAT a debating lioeiety the subject was ich is the sweetest production, a girl ip,Ot strawberry ?"

The elliCllll en it sweet The Ooturtittelleli sin It Ls . - ... we were capable of returning to the American people the evil feelings which their journals and their orators express towards us, we ought to wish well to the Republican cause and to rejoice at the present aspect of this contest. Gen. Scott is reported to have said that to reduce the South would take three.years and au army of 31 14 3,010 men, and that to retain the-con quest would require a garrison in every city for generations yet to come. It is al. ready proved that this estimate tins flr be low the reality; and, as thrive ,;o0,1:iou men have not sufficed even to overrun the country, so thrice three years will nut Lice to subdue it. lint let us suppose, that General Scott's vain thought could be re alized. If Europe wished to see A rnerica reduced to utter insigniflicance among na tions, what better could she desire than to see America afflicted thus with twelve mil lions of insurgent subjects ready to rally round any invader, and crying always for help and vengeance across the Atlantic. Here is the fuel for conflagration which any torch would kindle; here is a naked ness which any pigmy spear might pierce. We, however, have not so read our na tional interests; nor can we believe that England can ever thrive upon the ruin of any great sister nation. When we see the Democratic party in America snaking a show of force once more, struggling for utterance and yearning for the old free institutions of early America, we believe that in that party lies the only Hope of peace to a great people and peritianeut prosperity to a mighty country. They have all our sympathies. We have no great faith in the early termination of the war if the Republicans gain another term of power. • True, gold is now at 112, and the money crash is nearing every day, but the confederates have fought on parched corn, and the federals also can fight with out foreign credit, i( their passions hold out or their yarly hatreds urge them. Al. though they never can actually subdue, they may go on obstinately fighting. If the Republicans should win all these elections, the result may very probably be so to lengthen and embitter this war as to throw the North American continent back for a century. From the London Times. Oct. 21st. The Abolition Proclamation of President Lincol n. Are scenes like those which we a short time since described from Dahomey yet to interpose, and it the reign of the last President to go out amid horrible massa cres of white women and children, to be followed by the extermination of the black race in the South? Is Lincoln yet a name not known to us as it will be known to posterity, and is it ultimately to be class ed among that catalogue of monsters, th e wholesale assassins and butchers of their kind? Are not the half million of fight ing men who have already fallen by fire and steel, or rotted by disease, enough holocaust to the Fetish of the North? We fear not. Slaughter without result in Mississigpi and Kentucky, and a threat of renewal of the sanguinary battles of Mary. land are all we learn as the last news. Concurrent testimony seems to show that to this worse than Dahomey slaughter-- worse because the mass of butchery is a hundred fold greater, and becau e Chris tian men are the victims and the slangli terers—are to he added the horrors of a servile war, stirred up by this honest, shrewd, nnscrupuloua teller of good stories. There is something of horror, as well as of rage, and of alarm as well as in dignation in the resolutions with which the Confederate Congress answer the Lin-, cola Slavery Proclamation. We attempt at present to predict nothing as to what the consequence of Mr. Lincoln's new policy may ,be, except that it certainly will not have the effect of restoring the Union. It will not deprive Mr. Lincoln of the distinctive affix which he will share with many, for the most part foolish and incompetent Rings and Emperors, Caliph s and Doges, that of being Lincoln—"the Last." A. QUEST/ON , - .•. Is the Pittsburgh Gaulle aware that whenit,,charges Mr. Ingersoll, of Phila delphia, with having expressed a desire "to put down the Federal Government" it states a falsehood? It was honest Forney who charged this upon Mr. Inger soll, hot it was promptly and explicitly denied. Mr. Ingersoll is in favor of put ting down the present Federal Adminis tration, not the government, and in this he is joined by a very large majority of the American people. But Abolitionism seems impressed with the idea that the gov. erument and administration are the same; in good time they they will find out better, by seeing the Democracy of the country preserving the one and utterly annihila ting the other. For the Morning Post. The Difference. Ma. Enrron :—The editor of the Pitts burgh Gazette, in his issue of the 13th inst., has seen proper to make some strictures upon some remarks the lion. Fernando Wood made at a Democratic meeting as to his mode of conducting the war. With out making any remarks or comments.— will state in few words what the Ex- Mayor did say and then quote from An drew Jackson's Farewell Address, March 3d, 1837, and call upon the editor of the Gazette to point ont the difference. EEB!iAIIDO WOOD "Force alone would not do, forwe must go with the sword in one - hand and the constitution and olive branch in the other; with such a policy animating the war, I believe the Union can he restored again to a condition of happiness and pros• perity." .NDR JACKSON' , 4 But the Constitution cannot be main tained, nor the Union preserved, in oppo- sition to public feeling, by the mere exer• tion of the coercive powers confided to the General Government. The foundations must be laid in the affections of the peo ple, in the security which it gives to life, liberty and property in every quarter of the country, and in the fraternal attachments which the citizens of the several States bear one to another as members of one political family, mutually contributing to promote the happiness of each other... Is not the above the language of a true patriot, and does it not contrast strangely with the base and spurious stuff called Patriotism which is passing current at the present time, but which, in truth, is 'loth mg more nor less than fanaticism of the worst and most dangerous character? IN case the Speaker of the next llouie should be an Anti - Administration many 'the result will be in accordance with the general rule, for it is a curious fact that for thirty-eight yeafs the last House of Representatives during each Adtuinistra lion has been controlled by political op ponents of the President.

Thev then rebuilt their airy house on a lofty and inaccessible sycamore, on the farm of Richard Petti bone, adjoining Mr. Kelley's, and enjoyed perfect happiness for fi-rty years longer, raising to eaglehood two or three chicks yearly. A few weeks ago a high wind wrenched off a limb containing the nest, and threw it to the ground with such en ergy that it was torn to atoms and a very young and very bald eagle killed. The nest was very large, being made of about ten bushels of sticks and leaves. This aged and persevering couple are now ma. king a third nest on another sycamore, near the one lately destroyed.
