With regard to the recent rumors of
intended changes in high military places,
the Washington Republic Of YESTERDAY
says Gen. Halleck will not go to the de-
partment Of the West, neither will Gen.
Mcclellan be made Comma nder in Chief.
Gen Hooker, as he is by his bravery and
soldierly qualities entitled to, .will have
an important command.
The Times says about the late battle at
Pocatiligo. instead OF the rebels gaining
victory our troops defeated them in the
very hard fought engagements which
took place week ago to-day. drove them
from both of their chosen positions and
compelled them to retreat in haste across
the Pocatiligo River, at which they de.
stroyed the bridge in their rear to pre-
vent further pursuit and although Gen.
Mitchell did not on this occasion succeed
in carrying out the magnificent program
me which he had conceived, be did make
complete reconnaissance of the region
between the Island of Port Royal and
Charleston X. r., and administered to
the rebels thorough chastisement.

Esis Policy Of Weakening the Enemy

Hilton HEAD, .. u, Oct. A, 1862.
Gen Mitchell is pursuing policy for
the department of the South which meets
the hearty approval Of his command. He
will omit no effort whatever to weaken
the enemy by drawing away their slaves,
and no Democrat or Republican can COM
plain Of his course for this reason-he
encourages the slaves to come within our
lines. not to craft the negro, but to make
them useful to themselves and the Union
cause, while at the same time the rebels
will miss them in the trenches, will miss
them as cooks and servants in the army.
and as producers upon the plantations.
The General declares in private circles
his intention to make his headquarters on
the main land, and by circumstances
which must consequently follow, the col
ored refugees will more readily escape
from their masters. They are to be plac-
ed on farms and encouraged to carry on
the land to be rented them by the gov
ernment. The times and sentiment on
the negro question have changed, aud it
IS With pride that We now aid in what we
formerly styled the work Of "negro steal
ing AS the commanding General is
not guilty of negro worshipping, he will
find his troops with him heart and baud
The blacks are put to work, and under
HIM are treated no better than the whites ;
and, as noticeable change, the whites
obtain their share of the soft bread from
the post bakery, and the blacks get their
proper proportion Of wormy hard bread.
