Every Word ofit True.

John Bright, the sagacious English states
man and true friend Of America, in letter to
a Mr.. Jewett, holds the following words
If you are for the Union, and think IL can
be preserved by conciliatlng the South, con-
fess | am amazed. They have made war upon
you, because they suspected that you would
yield nothing more to them--are you to yield
more under compusion of the war, or because
you can neither conquer the South, nor yet sub
sst as an independent State without heri II
you love slavery and wish 10 continue il, and IL
you think you can build up with honor re-
stored and united republic by humbling your
self to the South, can only express my sur
prise at the dream which possesses you. You
may separator you may fight out this contest
and win-but to leave the slave still slave will
expose you to the contempt of the civilized
world. ] applaud the proclamation of the
President, as does every man in Europe who is
not foe to freedom, or moved by base hostility
to the American Republic because Il Is a repub-
lie, and because 1t is powerful

General p,e,san,o,,s Command.

A correspondent of the New York Herald
writes from the headquarters of the Army of
the Potomac, November Z, as follows;
General Pleasanton's command continues so
far in the advance of the army that his opera.
tions are seldom heard of until several days
after their occurrence. 1t has been ascertained
that in its progress up the Shenandoah valley
the rebel army has been marching very rapidly,
posting Its forces at the different gaps until II
had passed, and sending small bodies down on
this side to occupy our attention and delay our
advance. Thus Stuart came through Smokers
Gap, passed down through the country over the
Bull Run mountains, and again through Ashby's
Gap into the Shenandoah valley.
There can be no doubt but that the rebel army
is already at Gordonsville, and will be ready to
give us battle when We come up with them at
that place

Gen. Tnylor,s Plantation.

A report lately obtained circulation in many
of the newspapers that Gen. Taylor's plantation
near New Orleans was sacked by the soldiers of
the Vermont Eighth regiment. The officers of
the regiment contradict the statement In Yer
mont paper. They say that before the troops
arrived at the plantation the overseer had RIM
away, taking with him everything valuable be-
longing TO the estate. The negroes of the plan
tation had, after their master left taken posses
sion of the wines and some trinkets which had
not been removed by the overseer, and had Ia
ken them to their shanties. When the troops
arrived the grounds were strewn with papers,
which the negroes had taken and opened.

Removal OF Gen. Mcclellan.

Inc National IRteUigeItcer calls attention to
the fact that the removal of Gen. Mcclellan was
made November Z, while the letter of Gen Hal
leck, which is represented in some quarters as
the cause of the removal. bears the date of Oc-
iober 2S. If the letter was really the cause of
the removal, the bateliigenee ascribes the delay
in making II to some unexplained reasons of
state policy. 1t suggests, however, that the
letter may not have been the true cause of the
removal, but that possibly, while all the COM
plants in respect to Gen. Mcclellan, contained
in the letter, may have been satisfactorily an
swered by him, some new facts may have oc-
CURED since October %, or may have been as
certained since that date, which may have oc-
"asioned the final action of the President.
The hteHigencer might have added to all this
laborious criticism this further and nv mate
rial observation: that while Gen. Haleck's letter
is dated October 2s, the facts which 1t recltes,
and which were as well known TO the Govern
ment before the letter was written as afterwards.
occurred many days before its date, and espe-
cally the fact that Gen. Mcclellan disobeyed
peremptory order to advance, given to him early
in October.
The truth Is, nobody is authorized to say that
this letter of General Haleck Is either the sole
or chief cause Of the removal of General Nc
'lellan. II was, to be sure, published Just af-
ter the removal, but so, also, was the report of
the commission appointed to investigate the
circumstances attending the surrender of Har-
per's Ferry. 1t is difficult to say which is most
damaging to General Mcclellan the report of
this Harper's Ferry commission, or General
lIalleck's letter.
General Mcclellan was not removed on account
Of either of these things, separately or com
bined, taken by themselves, but, from the grad
ual growth of public sentiment unfayorabIe
TO him, and which finally reached such n poInt
of strength as to be irresistible.
Undoubtedly, the Northern elections precIpi-
tated the result. The Democrats had partially
succeeded In those elections, upon the issue
which they made, that the conduct of the war
was not sufficiently vigorous. So far as the
people endorsed this view, II clearly amounted
TO an instruction to the President TO put a diff
ierent man at the head of the Army Of the Po-
tOmac.

A Loyal Octoroon Settlement I'm Virginia.
Correspondence Of the Evening Post.

BALTIMORE, November 8, 1862.
About three miles to the eastward of Fan
quier Sulphur Springs, in Virginia, along n
range Of hills Of considerable fertility, there Is
a large settlement of octoroons, well to-do In
this world, and an industrious people. Its
origin was in this wise; A number of poor
whites, after much scuflling, managed to ac-
quire few acres each of the hilly region in
question, and took to themselves mulatto wo-
men for wives. The present generation, some
three removes down, are so white that II is diff
cult to detect any trace of African blood in
their veins. About the time of Pope's occupa-
tion of that country, one Of these settlers got
into our lines and was arrested as a spy, and he
had hard work to prove the contrary. The
whole settlement is for the Union. have this
account from one of our quartermasters, who
visited these people and bought largely from
them. So much for amalgamation In the South +!

Late intelligence, to-day, from General Burn
sides headquarters, reports that all was going
on as usual. OF course, there was a feeling of
deep regret manifested, hut the evidences that
the army intend to stand by the President are
overwhelming.
A strong and determined purpose is plainly
perccptible to-day, wherever / have mingled
with military men, that the Administration
shall not be worried by any confusion caused
by political tricksters. Onward is now the
word, and let no man look back until the foe
