An order of the President devolves upon Ma

army.
In parting from jou.I cannot express the
love and gratitude I War j on. As an army,
jou have grown up under my care. In you I hav e
never found douM or coldness. The battles you
luvo fought under my command will prondly

Imo achieved, our mutual perils and fatigues,
the graves of our comrades fallen In battle and
by disease, the broken forms of those whom
w ounds and sickness have disabled tho strong

unite us still by an Indissoluble tic. We shall

McClellan has been detained nt Warrcnton, en

of the fact that Leo and Longstrect are appa
rently striving to mass their troop1) at Culpcper,
to flght their battlo for the possession of Gor
don svlllo somewhere about there.
It Is to be hoped that tho delay of tho army at
Warrcnton, made necessary to enable Us new
commander to get fairly Into tho harness before
risking a declsho engagement, may not prove
udvantagcous to tho enemy by enabling them
to he better prepared to meet the shock of battle
where they are than they would havo been If
our army could have advanced on the day after
McClellan was superseded as It advanced on
that day and the day Iwfore.

for twenty-four hours, awaiting tho arrival of
Gen. McClellan and his personal stall. Aa he

Capture of llbl rUttmrr wllh-fCnglUh
Colors, Tsontlfd with Mnnltlonsof AVr.
Tlie Navy Department has Just received In
telligence from Commodore Farrsgut, of tho
capture of tho Caroline, n vessel fitted out at
Havana and doubtless a rebel pirate. Sho was
captured by tho United States steamer Mont
gomery, Chas. Hunter, commanding, one of
the Mobile blockading vessels, which fell In
with the Caroline and chased her six hours, du
ring which the latter threw ovcrlward many
boxes and bales of merchandise. 8ho showed
English colors after tho Montgomery commen
ced firing nt her, but did not hcive to, until she
had been struck twice by her shot.
The captain, as usual, professed to be l-ound
for Malanzas, but she viiraattontly got out of
her proper course lu a golo of wind, which
blew In Just tho wrong direction to drive her
where she was found some three hundred
miles out of her course. Tho crew, however,
sajs thit she was going Into Mobile that night.
The cartfo has not been examined, as yet, but
tho vessel, doubtless, contains munitions of
war designed for tho rebels. Sho was captured
on tho CSth of October, and was sent north nt
onco for adjudication. Tho vessel was regis
tered as tho English steamer Caroline, hnt
was formerly the American steamer Arizona,
built In Wilmington, Delaware, lu 18T3, and
was 6S2 tons burden. The papers show that
she has 10,500 pounds of saltpetre on board j
and tho captain, after being told that ho should
sent In, acknowledged having arms on lnanl.

Tho Nav) Department has received volumln

dated Pensaeola B;ij, Oct. 15lh. After stating
that Galveston and Corpus Christ), with Sabine
City and tho adjacent watirs, ore now In our
possession, he sas: "A short time ago I Bent
down the cuisl of Texas Vol. Lieut. J. W . Kit-
Iridic with the harquo Arthur, the little schooner

he could tako Corpus Chrlstl and the waters

RaiiBom, by which It Is seen they captured fif
teen hundred cattle e route for tho enemy, and
succeeded, by great perseKrai.ee, In getting
them down to New Orleans. In tho attack ou
our transports, however, coming down tho riv

seamen were killed. He was tho executhe offi

ALL HOPE Of INTEnVEVTIOf GONE.

" Tho prospects of European Intervention hare
dissolved like a snow wreath. Rut a short
time ago there wcro hopeful Indications that
England and France wcro about to tako some
action In this war that would bo favorable to
tho South. Tills opinion was reflected noLonly
In tho Journals of the enemy, but In the minds
of Intelligent foreigners on this sldo the Atlan
tic. It Is known that on tho strength of the
calculation of our national existence being ear
ly recognized by England and France, transac
tions have been made to some extent by foreign
capitalists In Confederate lonrts at etghtyix
cents on tho dollar.
"There Is. however, no mistaking tho slir-
nl flea nee of tho speech of the British Secretary
of War, In which lie asserts that tho South has
noi as yet accompusneu ner inucpcnucncc,' anu
must be regarded as a Itellljrercnt holding an
uncertain position In an undecided war. The
British Government will In noway, and at no

nize tho Sonthcrn Confederacy as ono of tho In
dependent Powers of the earth, or Interfere to
limit the duration of this war."
TUB NORTHERN ELECTIONS.
The Framtner of tho 6th, speaking of tho re

"These astounding manifestations from tho
North convey tho idea of an emphatic and Im
prcsslvo popular verdict against the abolition
faction which has ruled tho Government at
Washington. Tha Northern papers attempt to
lessen tho valuo of tho results of tho elections
In tho eyes of the South Tho value, however,
Is determined by tho circumstance, that the
principal Idea ou which tho recent canvass
In tho North was conducted, was that tho Dem
ocrats were a peace party in disguise, and with
this Issue thrust In their faces, the people of the
thrco most powerful States In the North have
glcn unprecedented majorities to the Demo
cratic candidates, and a blow to the abolition
ists at tho ballot-boxes that will stagger them
Into tho background."

Intense excitement there. Senator Harris, In a

mistake. He has written a letter to Gen. Mc
Clellan stating this as his opinion
Keep cool, Mr. Senator.
All statements alleging disaffection In the
arm, Id consequence of a change in the-command
of the Army of tho Potomac, are pro
nounced by thoso who havo the best means of
knowing, to be without foundation. Soldiers
aro very much like other men, prone to wor
ship the rising sun.
It Is ascertained that the assignment of Burn-
side to the command of tlie Army of the Poto
tomnc Is without limitation. Hence the reports
that any other general will take tho position
aro not well founded; this Is, at least,, the pres
ent state of affairs.
The N UrolDgton Journal, of tbe4ih Instant,
says i Wo learn, by a gentleman Just from Ma
sonliorough Sound, that, early this morning,
tho blockadcrs commenced firing on a large
English brig, supposed to be engaged In run
ning the blockade. The brig was run aahoro off
Marlborough. At about 8 o'clock, the block
adcrs commenced firing ou the Stato Salt
Works. Aa wo go to press, the firing Is plainly
heard In town. Wo do not know the damage
the brig has sustained. She had not I won taken

Fears are entertained of tho capture, by tho
rebels, of lho two companies of the Second

to Ikj pretty certain that some of the convales
cents wcro captured by Stuart Vcavalr).
Tho address of General Burnsldo to the arm)
of the Potomac nn taking command Is one of
tho best things of tho kind that has transpired
durlug tho war. The modesty, tho patriotism,

at the hospital, and her distress was extreme.
Dr. Johnson went, Indignantly, to the proros
marshal, and demanded redress. On Investi
gation, It proved the notorious JFise efc Allen had
run the nusbana into tuo jail, although ho had
a protection on his person.
Tho provost marshal Instantly sent down
I leutcnant Brcnnan and ten men to procure
the bodies of the Blarespeaceably, If he
could; forcibly. If he must.
The guards on duty refused to obey tho orderj
but tho provost guard having been marched In,
tho Jail guards, seeing that resistance was use
less, succumbed, and the two fugitives were
brought down and dellrercd over under pro
test. Tho mother was restored to her children and
tho husband placed under the protection of the
bayonets of tho United States, at tho Patent Of
fice hospital. It is about tlmo tho Infernal
business of negro-catching were stopped In this
city. There Is too much of tho free and Intelli
gent Northern clement now Inhabiting tho city,
to allow the disgrace much longer. Yet it
never can be stopped while theso these villains
can pursue their nefarious calling under color
of the fugitive slave law . Let that law he abol
ished and then abolish all officers of the law,
who favor such outrageous proceedings as the
kidnapping of free people, an I wo shall be a
free city In truth. In the nnmoof humanity,
wo thank Gen. Wads worth and Col. Dostcr for
what they have done In this and similar cases,
yet even the ure pow erless to save the victims
of tho slave power In many cases, In conse
quence of that law which there Is now no good
reason for continuing In existence.

Benefit or Dr. James L. Tiuteb. To
morrow (Thursday) evening, our amiable
young friend, Dr. James L. Thayer, Is to re
ceive a complimentary benefit from lho hands
or a numner or jus personal aumirers anu ac
quaintances, many of whom ho has made since
his sojourn In tho metropolis. The Doctor Is
an unassuming, well-bearing, high-toned gen
tleman, whoso originality Is only surpassed by
his chasteness, both In public and private asso
ciations, He never sacrifices the feelings of
any party, sex, or people, by making unpleas
ant allusions. He docs not attempt to talk on
subjects that ho does not understand, neither
does ho volunteer to tell the people what politi
cal course to pursue. Ho fills the mission laid
out for the one who follows that department In
tho profession he has chosen, namelyi ho
amuses his auditors. Wo hope to see the CreJ
morne Circus well filled on Thursday night.
Robber Arrested. The notorious burglar,
Charles Harvey, who was arrested a few days

examined, and It was clearly proven that Har
vey's Intentions were to commit a robbery. He
was ordered to glvo bonds In tho sum of one
thousand dotlars for his appearance at court,
which ho fulled to do. and was committed to
Jail. Tho servant girl deserves much praise for
securing tuts notorious tuiei, ana wo nope wis
case may bo of somo benefit to all others who
may ne placed in like circumstances.
