have spent u good many hours

State, and / am satisfied that there
arc rs many Secesslonlsts here as
ever. Ninetcnths Of the Americans
in this city ;re Secessionists, and
nothing but tho sight Of brassrb&t-
tons and red tape keeps them down.
Our pickets at Benton barracks are
fred AZ nearly every night, One
of Col. Barstow's men was shot in
She leg and one Of Col. Washburn's
through tho hand, Il few nights
since.
Ii is amusing to us here who have
seen and conVcrsed with hundreds
who were in tie battle oflittsburg,
to read the diiicrcut accounts of the
loss in that engagement. L can see
no good reason lor denying the tact
that our men fought like So many

From the above the reader will learn, that
the "Secesh" vote in these thirteen counties
is 8,Ol2 larger in 1862 than it was in 1860.
Then, can these JEFF Davisites attribute the in.
creased Republican majority to accessions
from their ranks7 Can they attribute II to
their followers having enlisted into the army
Most certainly not, or from whence their tn
creased rofel On the other hand, how stands

Mott has fallen off 1911! Is the increas-
ed Secesh vote from this souice7 We trow
not, or from whence the increased Republican

LII Republicans Are not the larger num-
Der of them in the army? Will these semi
secessionsts deny this, and assert that there
are no men in the army from these thirteen
counties1 No. they dare not-they know
better. Then, you ask, from what source this
$500 of an increase in the majority of 1862 :
We answer-it can only be attributable to the
natural increase, and to the fact that large
number Of the voters in those counties did
not go to the election in 1860 But perhaps,
these sympathising friends of Jeff Davis will
deny this proposition If so, how do they ac
count for their increased vote in eight of the
thirteen counties named, whilst the Republi-
can vote has fallen short in erery one Of them
We leave the intelligent and thinking man
to examine this subject in all its aspects. at
his leisure: and when be has done this, he
will conclude that "fgures won't lie," and
that these Secession sympathisers have resor-
ted to an expedient for the purpose of mis-
representing the facts, and thereby grossly
deceiving their readers.

"FIauREs WON'T L1E.n

Some of the Hughes Secession organs have
selected thirteen Republican counties in the
State Of Pennsylvania, which, according to
their statements, give $500 more of Repub-
lican majority in 1862 than in several former
years. We have not referred to the returns to
ascertain if their assertions be correct or not
being satisfied with their statement. But,
what inference do these Secesh organs desire
their readers to draw from the mere assertions
made BY them3 II is, that the Republicans
have remained at home to vote whilst their
followers have gone into the army. Would it
not be we'll to give the whsie rofe cast At sew
eral of the elections and ascertain, by compar-
ison, whether this is fact or not n To this
end, we append the vote cast for President in
1860 and that for Auditor General in 1862, in
the counties to which reference is made:

How the late Ele-tions are Viewed In the Army
A letter from General Milroy's command to
the Cincinnati Gazette says:
sThe feeling manifested by the best men in
the army here, in reference to the late cleo
tions in Pennsy Ivania Ohio and Indiana, is
very strong, and of a character which might
readily be inferred from their opinion OF the
Proclamation. Their freely expressed detes-
tation of such men as Vallandigham, Voorhees,,
Cox, and the s.lesser lights" OF that school
of such papers as the Cincinnati Enquirer,
Columbus Crisis, Pittsburgh Posi-, and Wheel
ing Prsss-is such as to cause thrill of JOY
In the heart Of every patriot, whose love of
country is greater than his party prejudice
However the people may be deceived and mis-
led by the Vaccinations of such men, striving
under the sacred name of Democracy, to carry
out the programme of that midnight conclave
OF traitorous cowards-the Knights of the
Golden Circle; tie army, at least, will prove
true to the Constitution and Union it is sworn
10 support ard after the war against armed
rebels is done, will turn its attention to the
plotting, canting hypocrites, who are endeav-
Western Virginians express the most profound
sstonishment that such men are permitted to
prate their rampant treason in Ohio. Here it
would not be allowed for a moment; and the
man who would dare to call this an 'sAboi-
tion war;" in the presence OF Western Virgin
ia soldiers, would do so at the peril of his life.
The conv iction is very general that in the
late elections, the rebels have received great
encouragement by the evidence they seem to
give of a ssdivided North" 1t is believed al
so, to a very considerable extent, that the
Northern Democratic leaders are in secret
league with the heads of the Southern Confed-
eracy and that, in the event of a successful
campaign which wi destroy all hopes OF sin
dependence on the part of the South, peace
will be offered by the rebels on something
like the "Crittenden Compromise" basis; and
then, By the aid of their Northern sympathi-
zers ard CO workers, Davis, Toombs, Wigfall
and the remainder OF such s'Southern Demo-
crats,'' will be returned to their old places of
sshonor and profit in the General Govern
ment, that is, if, in view of the sshorrors Of
war;" the dread Of high taxes" and the most
persistent howls about ssniggers.'' the people
of the North can be brought to set the seal
upon their own eternal shame and degrade
ton. Tie false pretenses of peculiar love for
the saGonstitution as it ISL by these Northern
traitors, who were always ready to change it
at the behests of the Secession leaders is thor
oughly understood, and properly appreciated
in the army"

REMOVAL OF GEN. MCCLELLAN.

By last evenings mail, we have the confir
nation OF the removal of Gen. Mcclellan from
the command of the army of the Potomac.
The reasons assigned for his removal, seem to
be numerous. One Of them is, that he disc
beyed the orders of the General In Chief, who
says that "on the 9th of October he (M'Clel-
/" lan)was peremtorily ordered to cross the Pc.
+" tomac and give battle to the enemy, or drive
" him South," which was not done. Further,
before the Court of Inquiry in reference to
the surrender OF Harper's Ferry by General
Niles. General Halleck testifes ssthat Gen.
|" M'Clellsn, after having received orders 80
." repel the enemy invading the State of Ma
"ryland, marched only six miles per day''
when pursuing this invading enemy. Again,
General Hsleck testifies ssthat In his opinion
"Gen. Mcclellan could and should have re-.
/" lisved and protected Harper's Ferry"
These, with other causes assigned, led to
the change of Commanders in the Army oi
the Potomsc. We will publish the official
documents, in our next-having been receiv.
ed at too late an hour for this weeks paper.

THE WAR NEWS.

On the Sd, a fight took place between a por-
ton of the Missouri State Militia, under Col.
Catherwood and Quantril's guerrilIas, in which
the latter were deteated-our men having burnt
II wagons, and killed men aud taken Is pri-
soners. Catherwood followed the guerrillas
and defeated them in pitched battle near
Rose Hill, and is now in pursuit.
The army of the Potomac was still advanc-
ing cautiously at late accounts. Chester's,
Smokers and other Gaps are in possession of
our troops. Gen. Pleasonton is at Warrenton
and bad skirmish near Little Washington
with Stuart's cavalry, and captured three pie
ces OF rebel artillery, Captain, a Lieutenant,
and five privstes. Gen. Bayard, on the 9Th,
occupied and now holds the railroad bridge o.
yer the Rappahannock. Broad Run bridge
was destroyed. Weather, clear and cold. 1t
is stated, on good authority, that the whole of
the rebel army retreated from the Valley some
three weeks since-ieaving but small force
as rear guard, which has been annoying our
advance and holding it in check.
News was received on the 7th, that Breck-
inridge moved from Mnrfreesboro with &c. 900
men, expecting to destroy Nashville. After a
heavy bombardment the rebel force concluded
to retire. Gen. Rosencrans' advance, under
McCook, reached Nashville on the 7th, hence
the city is safe. MorgaE's guerrillas made an
attempt to burn EdgdeId Junction R abroad
bridge, and were whipped.
From Newbern, N. c., we learn that Gen.
Foster had left that city with some thirteen
thousand men, and had gone to Plymouth,
and, with about eight thousand men, surroun.
ded some three thousand rebels, about one
half of whom were cavalry. The ssrebs' wish
ed to make terms, but Gen. Foster was obdu-
rate, and demanded an unconditional surren-
der, and they, finding they could do no better
yielded with good grace.
Gen. Mitchell. who was recently assigned
to cammand in the South, is reported to have
died of yellow fever. General Mitchell was
one of our bravest and best officers.
