Gen. Buell's Final Order.
HEADQRs ARMY OF THE ONO,
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Oct. 80.
CENERALQoRDERs, no. $50.

80 ANS'
In obedience to orders from headquar-
tiers of the army, Maj. Gen. Buell. relin-
pushes the command of the District and
Army of the Ohio to Maj Gen. w. S.
Rosccrans.
1t is impossible for the General, with
out feelings of regard and warm inter-
est in their future success, to part with
the troops whom lie has been the instru-
ment of converting, for the most part
from raw levies into powerful army,
honored, by common consent for its dis
cipline and efficient organization, for its
esprit du corps, and for victories uuqual-
flied by single reverse, and whose for
tunes he has followed for twelve
months, over field of operations, en-
bracing considerable portions of four
States, through difficulties and dangers
which its fortitude and courage have
mastered without accident or failure. 1t
has, recently, by a rapid march of five
hundred miles, with limited Subsistence,
often with aninadequate supply fwater,
returned to Kentucky and driven from
her borders powerful army, and having
re-establish its communications, is now
well on its way to meet the enemy at
other points The occasion is not con-
venient for recounting its services during
the past twelve months, but the army
may well recur to them with pride If
anything has not been accomplished
which was practically within the sphere
of its duty, the General cheerfully holds
himself responsible for the failure The
General reflects with pride that the army
under his command has, for the most
part, been free from petty jealousies and
intrigue; that it has neither INDUCED in
vain boastings nor furnished its high
character by chickering's and low Grimm
ations. 1t will enhance his qualification,
if it shall carry to its new commander,
who already has earned its confidence
and respect by distinguished service, the
same noble qualities which have charac-
terizcd it since its organization. He will
pray that it may be the instrument of
speedily restoring the Union to its integ-
rity; and there, is no individual in its
ranks in whose honor and welfare he
will not feel special interest.

Entire Army In Motion.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3.-The WASH
ington Star says last night the advance
of the army of the Potomac under Burn
side, Fitz John Porter, and others, doubt
less bivouacked upon the line of the
Alexandria and Winchester turnpike
from Upperville, three miles from or be-
lowl Ashby's Gap, down to Middleburg,
a distance of ten miles. Their cavalry
must have halted for the night very near,
if not on, the line of the Manassas Gap
railroad, somewhere between Front Roy
al and Thoroughfare Gap.
The force of Sigel, which took up the
line of march early yesterday, must have
advanced upon the line of the same rail-
road to Thoroughfare Gap ere nightfall,
if not beyond that point, while another
division of the army in front of Wash
ington under Sickles, at the same time
was doubtless advancing in the rear of
Sigel, and was at night within supporting
distance of him. Such, we judge, from
our knowledge Of the country, roads, &c,
to have necessarily been the movements
east of the Blue Ridge yesterday.
The march Of Sickles' division yester-
day before Alexandria, almost to the
extreme front, reflects great credit on it.
Up to 2:30 P. N. to-day we have not been
able to learn that the enemy had appear
ed in front of SigePs command in any
force. We would have learned the fact
had the enemy ventured an attack on
our forces in that quarter this morning.
We think it now clear that Lee flank
has been turned
