News by the Last European
Steamer-On What Terms the Rebels
,oiH Make Peace.
To the Editor of the London Times:

To the Editor of the London Times:
SIR beg permission to express my
entire concurrence in the views expressed
by you the other day, as to the impolicy
of European nterference in our unfor-
tunate civil strife, and for the very SIM
pie reason that any pressure brought to
bear from without on Lincoln's Govern
ment, would have the effect of rekindlng
a feeling in its behalf that is now fast dy-
ing out, on grounds that are so obvious
as not to need stating.
We or the South have never desired
more than the literal and faithful execu-.
tiou of the bond of compact between the
original thirteen States, since ratified by
each successive incoming State. We never
have wished or sought disunion, except
when every feeling of right and of family
communionship was sought to be violated
and crushed by the high handed and un-
constitutional proceedings of Mr.. Lin
coin and his party.
To seek, therefore, under the transpa-
rent mockery Of abolishing slavery, to
to dragoon the whole Southern people
into abject submission to the chimerical
ideas of few Northern fanatics, and that,
too, by the bayonets Of mercenary hordes
of foreign rogues and vagabonds, who
form the bulk of the Northern army, is
an undertaking that any man of reflection
will atonce pronounce to be an impossi-
bility short Of the utter determination of
every white man of the South. True, we
lack war materials of every kind, but we
will resist if our homesteads be laid in
ashes and salt strewed over the ruins!
Mr.. Lincoln, independent Of his utter
unftness for the position he occupies, is
only a minority President, and we Of the
South are willing to say to the North:
eve will meet you half way; will agree
to suspension of .hostilities, that Con-
yention Of all the States may be called,
and settlement come to by its decision,
by which we engage ourselves to abide,
provided said Convention be left to delib-
crate in absolute discennection from and
Independent of Government control and
influence" Z" %3t. @ 5sha;. Tal
Such was the unanimous feeling of every
prominent man whom | Iappealed to in the
South within the past two months, for, be
it said, | have just succeeded in "escap
ing '-7 escaping from my native land, from
my home, and all | hold dear on earth!-1
b Yours, very respectfully, $50

The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1862-12-03

We have just received the news here
that General Mcclellan, the best soldier
on the American continent, has been re-
lieved of his command has retired from
the field. What are we coming to? What
was he relieved for? Because he was
Democrat? Are they getting mad be-
cause the Democrats are coming into pow
er, and taking their spite out on Demo
cratic Generals? If they are, it would be
well to take the sense of a few Democrats
in the ranks son the subject. Perhaps
they will dismiss them also IF they did
they would need d strong draft to
fill up the ranks. There is not General
in the army one-tcnth part as popular
with his men as Mcclellan, or more fear
ed by the rebels; and if he is to be taken
away from the army, the Administration
should be punished for giving aid and
comfort to the enemy. He organized a
broken, demoralized and dispirited army,
drove with it the rebels across the Poto-
mac from Maryland, and had them max
ing tracks for Richmond, and as soon as
he gets them in eight spot" he is re-
lieved Burnside, his successor, is good
man and true; but McClellan's name is a
tower of strength. and we can't afford to
lose him. hope he may be assigned to
a still more important position. Then it's
fall right" - -.
Il re open my letter to tell you that
news has just come into camp that. our
company and Stewart's-the two compa-
nies that are serving as General Sigel's
Body guard, were captured at Fredericks-
burg yesterday. The largest part of the
two companies started day before 'yester-
day morning to reconnoiter, and charged
into Fredericksburg and were ''gobbled !"
The Captain and Second Lieutenant have
got back, and, it is said, refused to go into
the fight. But don't know.
