Foreign Desserts for English Tables By the Author of "Everybody's Pudding-book," &o• Bentley. This is a very useful little book, containing a great number of excellent recipes, so arranged as to form a calendar for every mouth in the year. " Make the most," says the author in the introdnc tion, " of so elegant an observance of a dessert, and celebrate it well. Profusion is not needful ; taste is everything ; then endeavour to evince a certain style in serving whatyou have, and thoughyou have but little at command, try and testify to your friends in what dear honour they are held, not by the substantiality of the refreshments you spread before them, but by the refinement, the lightness the delicacy of the friandiaes which you can make to embellish your table, and appear to be invested with the grace of votive offerings spread before your guests."

The crisis happened in this w ise. m hi a s t i h n e e m om at e ica h l a t d u r t e o a r e , h an ed d Feeling somewhat unwell, it occurred to him that t w h h e ° o n : t h s h o e d o h x a ds tmarried it would be prudent to insure his life for the bene fit of his wife and children, and on calling at an office for that purpose, he was referred to their me dical man. He went, as a matter of form, and was grievously alarmed at being not only refused a cer tificate, but told that his only chance of life was immediate retirement to the country. The shock this gave him may be imagined, but there was no resource but to act on it. He therefore gave up his London engagements, sold off his furniture, and proceeded with his wife and family to Helstonleigh (the cathedral town which forms the scene of " The Channings"), where he had a cousin married to an attorney named Dare, through whose influence he hopes to gain a connection. Vain hope! Travel ing to Helstonleigh on the outside of a coach, he got drenched with rain, caught a terrible cold, was laid up with rheumatic fever, broke a blood vessel, and died, whilst Mr. Dare not only refused to aid them but put an execution in the widow's house for rent. In this extremity she applied to the landlord, an extensive glove manufacturer, named Ashley, who at once relieved her from the pressure. She obtained work from his manufactory, and her eldest son, William, was taken there as a kind of supe rior errand-boy. The idea of this kind of occupa tion was at first, as may be imagined, not very palatable to him, but his mother gave him the fol lowing sensible advice :—" There would be no real disgrace in it, my darling. No work, in itself, brings disgrace ; be it the carrying abroad of parcels, or be it the sweeping out of a shop. So long as we retain our refinement of speech, of manner, our courteous conduct one to another, we shall still be gentlepeople, let us work at what we may." Ac cordingly he sets to work dutifully, and rapidly , gains his master's confidence and esteem. Now, in the same manufactory, and in the same position, is placed young Cyril Dire, the Dares and Ashleys being related, and Cyril being regarded as Mr. Ashley's prospective successor ; that gentleman's only son, Henry, being an invalid, and taking no part in the business. Of course, as the Dares are given to all worldly vanities, Cyril is the very oppo site of William. Idle, careless, and extravagant, `he even goes so far as to abstract a cheque from his master's desk, and, although William is at first sus pected, it is soon apparent who is the guilty party, though, out of consideration for his friends, the affair is hushed up. The rise of the Hallibur tons, and the downtall of the Dares is now steady and sure. William is taken into partnership, and marries his master's daughter, whilst Cyril, whose overtures for her hand have been contemptuously rejected, leaves the manufactory, rapidly goes to theett hh r e ei f tdi o hse r rs c bet e ieut d tuv ttaooe veryue mm and incapable—Aust ra li a .

In general plan the tale bears a considerable resemblance to "The Chan nings," its merits and defects being similar in kind, though, of the two, we prefer it. The intention is good, the style is excellent; the sketches of low life in Helstonleigh are vigorous and humorous, and we cordially commend the work to our readers' notice.

Although the names of Brunel and Stephenson are familiar as household words, it is probable that to many of our readers that of the subject of the present memoir will be almost unknown, notwith standing the fact of his having been more largely concerned, perhaps, in the construction of railroads than either of hi s grea t con t emporar i es .

Porter and Company's colliery would make his son " lead" coals in a cart of his own his sho th u e ld a e g r e sp o a f to houses in and about Barnsley. So mortified was he at what he deemed his degradation, that whenever he saw any one coming whom he recognised, he would lie down in the cart in order to avoid being seen. Still, "it is a long lane that has no turning." and Joseph at length obtained employment after his own heart in the office of George Stephenson. This was the foundation of his fortune. He soon showed that his abilities were of no mean order. He was employed by Stephenson in bis important undertakings, and, in 1835, when they had a misunderstanding and separated, he was appointed engineer-in -chief to the Great Junction Railway. His course was now clear. His practical talent was fully recognised, and railway companies were only too happy to secure his services. Thus among ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY. Last evening a meeting of the above society was held at Burlington House, Piccadilly; Sir Roderick I. Murchison in the chair, The first paper, a letter by Dr. Livingstone on the Lake Nyassa, in Africa, was read by Dr. Norton Shaw. It stated that at Mount Zomba there were two tribes which were exceedingly warlike and de structive, the Aj awes destroying the women and chil dren. There was a party of those people who, elated with continued success,finding theywere before a small number of about 20, commenced shooting their poisoned arrows, when a resort to fire-arms was necessary. None, however, were struck by the fire arms. Fortunately none of the party were hit by the arrows. On approaching Lake Nyassa they found elephants and hippopotami, which were very tame, and in that locality they fell in with a num ber of natives who wished the English to sit in the sun while they remained in the shade. This was not acceded to, when they rattled their shields, and being frightened at the production of a note-book which they thought a pistol they sped away. Re ference was made to a thick atmosphere, like smoke, which was composed of insects, which the natives collected and made into a kind of cake, tasting like roasted locusts, but fishy. Alluding to the cotton districts which were most prolific, together with the lakes and cataracts, the letter concluded with a no tice of the extensive slave traffic which was carried on to the westward. Mr. SPOTTISWOODE read the second paper by Capt. Speke, on the East African Expedition, show.- ing the difficulties he had encountered, and also touching art the disgraceful traffic in the slave trade. The third paper, by Mr. Baker, contained an ac count of his journeys in Abyssinia, &c., showing that up to 12 degrees north latitude none of the maps were correctly laid down. He bad seen elephants buffaloes, hippopotami, giraffes, &c., and one day he killed five elephants. The CHAIRMAN here referred to Captain Burton, who had ascended the Elephant Mountains, and also to Mr. Moffatt, the brother of Mrs. Livingstone, who recommended the use of camels for exploring. Mr. TINNEY explained some remarks which had been made by the Chairman respecting three ladies who bad proceeded up the Nile. Arriving at Khar toum they had to wait there the four wet months before they could make an exploration of Abyssinia, Upper Nubia, &c- Up the Waite Nile they could obtain no habitation. By the accounts in July last he believed they intended to proceed to Gondecoro, and when ho received further information it should be forwarded to the society. He stated that the cha racter of the climate of the White Nile was most salubrious.

At the usual bi-monthly meeting of the Juridical Society, held last night at their rooms, St. Martin's place, Trafalgar-square (Lord Stanley, M.P., in the chair), the discussion was resumed on Mr. West lake's paper, relative to the proposed alterations in the law of blockade. Mr. COLLIER, M.P., opened the discussion. Re ferring to the proposition of Mr. Cobden, that no place should be blockaded unless it W3E4 invested both by sea and land, he was of opinion that the other nations would not agree to it ; and what the country had to consider was the difference between the injury which it inflicted and the injury which it suffered. Mr. Cobden seemed to him to beg a 1 large part of the question when he assumed that this nation could have a protracted war only with such great powers as Russia, France, and America. But England might have wars with smaller States, and if she relinquished the right of blockade she would give up the only means she had of coercing such nations, for it was impossible she could land armies upon their coasts, she not being a military nation. No doubt the blockade of the Southern ports of America was injurious to England as a neutral, but it was far more injurious to the Con federates, for were it not for that they (the Confe derates) would now be independent. He would not enter into the question if private property should be inviolate at sea, but he was sure the relinquish ment of the right of blockcde, allowed and acted upon by all nations, would be injurious to this country. Mr. E. WEBSTER disagreed from the position taken up by Sir G. C. Lewis, that war put an end to all treaties b e t ween the belligerents, and there fore he held th at i f the relinquishmento block ade were generally provided for by treaty between the mari • time powers, it would thence become an article of the law of nations which no State would dare to violate. Mr. PHINN regretted that the question of the in violability of private property at sea was not made the subject of discussion. It was the established law of nations that one nation could blockade not only particular ports, but the entire coasts of its enemy ; and even the Americans, who were formerly the loudest in their complaints of it,were now them selves but too ready to act upon it. Mr. W. M. BEST considered that Mr. Cobden confounded the right of blockade with the duty of blockading. Every nation had the right, but it was a question of expediency for the consideration of each nation whether it would or would not. exercise it. The object of all just wars was to inflict upon an enemy such an amount of injury as would coerce him into submission to the law of n.dions, when by the violation of it he had provoked the hostilities. Blockade cut him off from commerce, and so de prived him of the sinews of war, and any neutral which supplied h'm with them was an accomplice in his crime. He did not mean his remarks to apply to wars undertaken for military glory, law less aggression, or the maintenance of an idea, for those who were the promoters of such wars were the enemies of the human race. Mr. WESTLAKE briefly replied, and the proceed ings were brought to a conclusion with the usual, complimentary vote.

The General Purposes Committee of the Corporation of London on Saturday issued a report upon the refbrence made to them to inquire into the duties and emoluments of the office of City Solicitor, Vacant by the death of Mr. C. Pearson, and whether any alteration should be made there in; and also to consider whether the office of City Solicitor might, with advantage, be amalgamated with any other present appointment. The committee went into a very full consideration of the subject referred to them, and all matters connected with the office since its first establishment in the year 1545, and they proceeded to ascertain the amount of salary that had been received by Mr. Pearson for a period of 14 years, namely, from 1843 to the time of his death in the present year. It appeared that during these years the smallest amount of salary received by Mr. Pearson was in 1852, when the amount paid to him was £1,744, and it varied front this sum to over £2,000, the amount received during the present year being £3,036 17s. The average net income during the period referred to is £2,081 Bs.; but in addition to this Mr. Pearson receiVed an additional sum of £772 in respect of appointments temporarily held by him. The committee, in the first instance, took into considera tion that portion of the subject referred to them regarding the advisability of amalgamating the office of City Solicitor with airy existing office, and they had a long conference With the Comptroller, the Secondary, and the Remem brancer upon the subject, and the committee came to the conclusion that it would not be advisable at present that either of these gentlemen should undertake the duties of the office of City Solicitor in addition to those of his pre sent office, They, however, state that with regard to the office of Remembrancer, it may be expedient at a future time to consider the propriety of amalgamating this office with that of City Solicitor, and they ex press an opinion that upon a favoririte opportunity of pre senting itself hereafter, it would be highly desirable that the City Solicitor should be appointed to the office of Remem brancer, and conduct all the legal and parliamentary busi ness now transacted by that officer of the corporation, and that the official and Ceremonial duties of the Remembrancer should be transferred to the office of the Town Clerk. The committee, as the result, recommend that the salary of the City Solicitor shall in future be the fixed one of £1,250 per annum, free of all deductions and of all expenses of his office, but to include all emoluments whatever, and that he be allowed the sum of £5OO per annum for clerks. It is, however, required that the gentleman holding the office shall not be permitted to hold any other appointment what ever, nor to engage in the transaction of professional busi nees for or on behalf of any other parties than the corpora tion ; but that his time and attention be at all times devoted exclusively to the business of his office. The committee likewise recommend that it should be stipulated that the election to the office of City Solicitor is subject to such further regulations, in addition to the accustomed standing orders, rules, and regulations of the corporation, as may hereafter be made in reference to the discharge by that officer of the duties attached to the office of City Remem brancer. The report is signed by Mr. Sydney Waterlow' the chairman, and Mr. Alderman Humphery, and Messrs . Bone, H. Lowman Taylor, Teulon, Todd, Field, Lusher' and Northcott, and the discussion upon it will take place in the course of a few days. ensuing winter. The price of raw silk is rising in Lyons. The value of the silks exported from Lyons during the year 1861, including ribands, is estimated at 333,310,000 f. Simi lar exports in 1860 amounted to 454,731,485 f, showing a diminution in the year 1861 of 121,421,485 E The average amount of the exports during the five years preceding 1862 was 4 20,116,0801, and the diminution of the exports in the year 1861, as compared with 1859, is 166,000,000, showing how much the manufacturers of Lyons have suffered by the American civil war. The cotton manufacturers are coming forward most libe rally for the relief oi the distressed operatives. MM. Wherlin and Hofer, of Mulhausen, who closed their mill in August last, have undertaken to maintain all their hands on full pay until July next. The operatives attend every day at the mill at the usual hours.' The men are employed at field works about the grounds and the women occupy themselves with knitting and needlework. There is a school established for the children, where they are taught to read and write. The Governor of the Bank of France has subscribed 10,000 f. for the re'ief of the unemployed cotton spinners at Rouen. The Minister of Commerce has published returns show ing the average produce of wheat per hectare (2f acres) in the several departments of Fiance. It appears from these returns that the produce is greatest in the Seine, where it is 25 hectolitres 72 litres, and least in the Lozere, where it is only 6 hectolitres 67 litres the hectare. The general average for all France is between 13 and 14 hectolitres the hectare. The land under wheat this year is estimated at 7,000,000 hectares, exclusive of Nice and Savoy. The average produce is considered good when it reached 14 hec tolitres the hectare. The late harvest is considered equal to a fair average, particularly us the quality of the wheat is Unusually good. under his quiet exterior is hidden a fiery soul, that he is patient only because patience is the surer game, and that his ignominious dismissal from the army which his genius converted from an undisciplined and disorderly mob into a respect;lble and efficient force, will be his stepping-stoue in due time to a higher, position, military and political, than was ever before occupied by any man in the Republic— George Washington not excepted. But the Presi dential election is a long way off. Two years make sad havoc with great ieputatious in this country, and in a time of revolution such as this, two years are sufficient not only to knock down men, but in stitutions and constitutions, laws and liberties, and systems of finance add government—everything that ought to be stable and well assured.

Yesterday a special meeting of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce was held at their rooms to discuss the above subjects, some members of the chamber having expressed their dissent from the published opinions of the council of the chamber. Mr. T. Chilton, the president of the chamber, occu pied the chair, and the attendance of members was unusually great. In opening the proceedings, the chairman explained that the council of the chamber having memorialised the Board of Trade, Lord Pal- merston, and the House of Commons, in favour of a change in the international law with reference to belligerents rights at sea and commercial block ades, some members of the chamber had expressed opinions that the declarations of the council did not represent the views of the majority of the members of the chamber. Under these circumstances, the council had resolved to call a special meeting, in' order to give the chamber an opportunity for fully discussing the two subjects, either singly or con- jointly. The following letter was then read from Mr. J, C. Ewart, one of the members of the borough :-- "New Brighton, Nov. 24. "My dear Sir,—l am very sorry that I shall be unable to be present at your meeting to• day, as I have another im portant meeting to attend, from which I cannot be absent. But I have so often expressed at your half-yearly meetings my opinion on the question to be brought forward, that I have little to say in addition.

It will no doubt be again brought forward in the House of Commons, and I need scarcely say it shall have my support.--Yours, &0., "T. Chilton, Esq." " J. C. EWART. Mr. CAMPBELL then moved a resolution to the effect that the chamber adhered to the views ex pressed by it in its memorial to the Board of Trade, Jan. 19, 1860, and Lord Palmerston, Feb. 3, 1860, and in its petition to the House of Commons, March 6, 1862, in favour of the proposal to exempt private property from capture at sea. The re s olution was seconded by Mr. ROBERTSON. Some discussion then arose as to whether the two questions should be discussed singly or conjointly. Ultimately the resolution of Mr. Campbell was changed to a resolution approving of the memorial of the council to the Government in favour of the abolition of commercial blockades. Mr. CAMPBELL then proceeded to speak at length in favour of his motion. • The motion having been seconded by Mr. C ROBERTSON, Mr. JAMES SPENCE (author of the " American Union " and the " S "of the 7 inaes) said that he thought it would be highly adverse to the interests of this country to abandon the right of capture at sea, and still more injurious to abandon the right of blockade. He moved, as an amendment, " That, in the opinion of this chamber, it is not expedient to memorialise the Government to abandon the rights of blockade or diminish its efficiency." Mr. HOLLAND seconded the amendment. After a long discussion, during which a great deal of heat and partisanship were exhibited, Mr. RAWLINS proposed, and Mr. PATTERSON seconded, the adjournment of the question until Wednesday week, which was lost. Other adjournment motions having been also lost, Mr. CAMPBELL was allowed to reply. The amendment of Mr. Spence was then put and carried by 23 to 14 votes. THE _REMOVAL OF GEN. MCLELLAN. (Mom the New York limes of Nov 10.) As a politician, Gen. M'Clellan's sympathies, pre vious to the rebellion, had always been with the South. He has believed them wronged by Northern sentiment and by Northern action. And, beyond all question, he has hoped and believed that a time would come when the war could be arrested, and when the Southern leaders, backed by a powerful party in the Northern States, would listen to terms of accommodation, and that nothing would stand in the way of such a compromise more than a victory which should wound their pride by humiliating their arms and crushing their power. In this view of the case Gen. M'Clellan has been encouraged by the political partisans who, at an early stage in the war, made him their prospective candidate for the Presidency, and came thus to have an interest in putting him in opposition to the ad ministration which he professed to serve. They de fended his errors, and made themselves the special champions of his worst mistakes. They had unques tionable provocation and soma excuse for much of this in the intemperate zeal with which he was as sailed; but they betrayed him into an undue reli ance on the support of a party, and a ruinous sub serviency to their wishes and views. We know not how else to account for the steady and systematic disregard he has shown of the wishes and orders of the Government, and for his adherence to a deliberate and methodical inactivity, which has brought the cause of the Union to the very verge of ruin. Unless we have been misinformed, President Lin coln has on two occasions written to Gen. M'Clel lan, reviewing in detail his military operations, and demonstrating his failures to respond to the wishes and just expectations of the Government. One of these papers was prepared just after M'Clellan had landed on the Peninsula, the other after the battle of Antietam; and we have heard both spoken of as masterpieces of military criticism. It is a melan choly satisfaction to learn that the President of the United States, who is the Commander-in-Chief of all its armies, and who is responsible, before God and the country, for the behaviour of all its gene rals, did not keep Gen. M'Clellan in command of the army of the Potomac from any confidence in hi s capacity or hi s fit ness f or t h e p l ace. Why he di d s retain him so long after he had satisfied hims e lf that he ought to be removed, it might next that the first act of Congress, when it meets month, will be to call for all the co r responden ce, . d though it would be useless to speculate. . which can and all the documents of every k i n d, 0 campaign f throw light upon the extra ordinary this unfortunate commande r . three times offered the Gen.

The Paris corn-market was well supplied with wheat last week, and prices were nevertheless firm, with much varia tion from those of the prebeding week. Choice samples are quoted at from 36f to 35f 50c the sack of 120 kilogrammes; first quality, 24f 25c to 34f 50c ; ordinary, 33f 500 to 34f. The merchants in the market offered their wheat at 50e the sack less. Wheat from Chartres was sold at 34f. It was difficult to obtain 33f 60c for wheat from the central depart ments of France. The farmers in Picardy find millers in that country willing to purchase their wheat at 28f and 28f 50c the 100 kilogrammes. The purchase of bakers' flour in Paris is reduced to the smallest pos sible quantity. Bakers will not buy more than is suf ficient for their daily consumption until the long -pending question of free trade in bread is decided. Choice samples are quoted at 62f. the sack of 157 kilogrammes ; good marks, from 60f to 6lf , and ordinary quality, from 58f to 69f. The sale of flour of the six marks has been very quiet for some days past. It was quoted at the beginning of the week; for delivery, at 59f 75c; for December, 60f; and for the first four months of next year, 59f. The official quotations on Saturday afternoon are, for delivery, 60f; for December, 09f 25c; and for the first four months of next year. 59f 25e The factors declared on Saturday 129 sacks of flour, of which 61 sacks of first quality sold for delivery with 30 days at from 57f to 62f the sack. The flour remaining in the market stores unsold amounts to 3,288 quintals. The situ ation of the corn-market at Marseilles ws s not brilliant last week. The numerous arrivals of ships laden with corn have induced purchasers to suspend their operations, and the importers have been forced to place the foreign wheat in the bonded stores. The corn imported last week con sisted of 87,436 hectolitres of wheat from the Danubian Principalities, 51,372 from Russia, 9,958 from Turkey, 4,253 from Greece, 2,720 from Italy, and 2,159 from Egypt. The sales did not exceed 35,160 hectolitres. The business at the Havre market is confined to some trifling sales by auction, which are held daily. Prices have become more firm in the Bordeaux corn-market within the last 15 days. Wheat sells sells for 23f and 23f 50c the 80 kilogrammes. Flour is worth from 41f to 43f the 100 kilogrammes. The markets throughout the south of France have been influenced by a demand from Languedoc and by the country millers, who have no stock of wheat on hand. Wheat continues to decline in the markets of Niort, Issou dun, Chateauroux, and throughout the central departments. The telegraph has brought the prices of the provincial mar kets held on Saturday "Amiens—Market well supplied ; sales easy, with firm ness in prices; barley abundant. " Arras—A passable market, sales difficult, prices firm, wheat 19f to 24f 50c the hectolitre. "Chartres—A, large market, sales slow, a fall on wheat of 35c. the hectolitre. " Dijon—A good market; very numerous offers of wheat from farmers ; prices firm ; a fall on oats. . " Etampes—A large market, same prices as last week.

"Rheims —No change in prices, and very little business doing ; wheat 28f to 28f 60c. the 100 kilogrammes, flour 37f to 38f. " Troyes—A small market, wheat and rye very firm." New wine continues to arrive in large quantities both at the market of Bercy and at the entrepot. Some very fine samples of Roussillon were sold last week at from 55f to 60f the hectolitre. The Narbonne wines are inferior this year to the Roussillon, and are selling at from 40f to 45f the hecto litre. Montague is quoted at from 30f to 35f the hectolitre. Bordeaux wines are scarce at Bercy, the wine. growers in the Bordelais still holding over the last crop. There has been same falling off in the sale of the wines of Lower Burgundy. The wines of the Cher are quoted at from 95f to 100 f the cask for light wines, and at from 100 f to 110 f for superior quality. The wines of Macon are in very good demand at Bercy at from 85f to 100 f the cask of 214 litres for second quality. There is a brisk demand for wine at Pezenas, but according as purchasers appear in the market the wine growers raise their prices, and consequently there is not much business transacted.

(From the Times' Correspondent.) NEW YORK, Nov. 11. No one who knows anything of the character of Mr. Lincoln's mind, or of the immense pressure that has been brought to bear upon it by the Abolitionist and extreme war party, will be surprised to learn that he has a second time relieved Gen. M'Clellan from the command of the Army of the Potomac. Near midnight, in the midst of a frightful snow storm on Friday last, the General was officially ap prised of the fact by Brigadier Buckenham, and ordered to report himself at Trenton, the capital of New Jersey, a little city, 57 miles from New York, where his wife and family had gone to pass the winter. A whisper of what had happened had been heard by a few persons in New York before the close of business on Saturday, and there was a consequent fall in public securities of about per cent., but the general public was not informed until Sun day morning. Little or no surprise seemed to be felt by anybody, but a good deal of alarm, not un min gled with disgust and indignation, was expressed whenever the commentators happened to belong to the Democratic party. The ultra-Republicans and Ein pulpit and on plat form x t the rm to savage e s' who sloga a n r ,` i ' se war to the knife, and the e knife to the handle," are of course delighted—and Governor Sprague' of Rhode Island, a wealthylma nufacturer, enriched by the war tariff, and known for his zeal in the cause of abolition—zeal that has ed him to raise and arm a negro brigade, which the President will not allow to leave Rhode Island— went so far as to order a salute of 100 guns to be fired yesterday in Providence iu commemoration of the event. The dismissal has been no hasty move ment. It appears to have been resolved upon in the Cabinet immediately on the President's return from his visit to the camp after the Battle of Antie tam—but Mr. Lincoln, always kind, always dila tory, always dubious, always over-polite, delayed the stroke as long as possible, partly, perhaps, from a desire not to seem to act harshly, and partly, no doubt, from a disinclination to take a step of such importance while the elections were pending. The grounds of the dismissal are set forth in a despatch from GOD_ llallrok to tho Secretary of War, dated the 28th of Oct. The report accuses Gen. M'Clellan of disobedience of orders, in refusing to advance against the enemy after the Battle of Antietam, upon the plea that the army lacked shoes, tents, stores, and other necessaries, which plea Generdl Halleck holds to be entirely unfounded, asserting that all the wants of the army were duly cared tor, and that any delays which may have occurred were trivial and speedily remedied. He furthermore charges M'Clellan point blank with wilful neglect of a peremptory order of the 6th of October to cross the Potomac immediately to give battle to the enemy, or to drive him south. (len. Halleck shows himself a stern critic. He writes like a lawyer, and the brief is unexceptionably drawn. Perhaps, however, it would not be very difficult to indite as unfavourable a criticism against h the fact that himself. He He ieat a a battle, and all th a t t h e world knows o f hi m, be yondheG al wh o never fought isenneorminally Commander-in- Chief, is that he was splendidly befooled by General Beauregard at Corinth, and suffered an army of 100,000 opponents to withdraw from a strong posi tion which he beleagured before he knew that a single man had disappeared, and entered Corinth to find no living creatures in it but a few dogs and two negroes. Simultaneously with general Halleck's accusation, which the friends of General M'Clellan maintain that he can satisfactorily answer, the Com mittee of Generals and lawyers appointed to inves tigate the circumstances attending the surrender of Harper's Ferry have, in plain terms, censured Gen. M'Clellan for neglectin g to send reinforcements to Colonel Miles, whom thecommi ttee c ainnd the day press, t e r s e o sd stigmatise ent as an incompetent ofaer. Had h been capable of res i st i ng the political influence directed against hi m n i ght party in the C a bi net, the lecture-r oom , and on the platform —a party to by h in e t h Abolitionist bol ti pulpit, on inst which, as a sincere hater of slavery, he has a natural leaning—it is possible that the results of his visit to M‘le havelan s camp after the battle of Antieta m might satisfied his mind that the Abolitionist s el' were demanding impossibilities of the General, and that the advance so imperatively urged by an im patient, if not rabid, faction would have led to the destruction of the army which attempted it ; and that M'Clellan, who had twice preserved the national capital from capture and destruction, might not have been equally successful the third time if he had yielded his own judgment to act on that of uninformed and prejudiced people, who envied him for his success and hated him for his politics. With M'Clellan has fallen his friend and disciple General Fitz-John Porter, who has been summoned to Washington to be tried by , court-martial for charges preferred against him by General Pope after the luckless battle of Centreville—charges . 6 a o t nable disobedience of orders. 101'Clellan hi mse lf will have Whatever may be the real merits loyalty of M'Clellan — for both are impeached by his o Gtla o f tme si: t su h eu ber e n avr leel sub m i t g s th e aoilt a ni ote s thceetk e dr e se g taah a tas r e d s o r t d h e e a lon the prosecution of military genius or the political enemies—his dismissal has increased his popularity, and made him by far the most prominent man in the Federal States.

Some of the general's friends say that he is not ambitious, and that having cleared his military character from the aspersions thrown upon it by Gen. Halleck and the Harper's Ferry Com mittee, he will wash his hands alike of war and politics and retire into private life, the severest and most flagrant example of the proverbial ingratitude o f Republics.
