There an vanoua sstimates in the leading Ual'ien as to tbe division of partis, fa the next congress, who tom of office eommenoea after the next session of the present, 'Wi believe that tbe following from tbe Boston Jour oal is as nrnr an estimate as eaa at present be made, but it should be remembered that the op-poaitioa is made ap of all shad from aimsM a white Republican to the blackness of tbs Woods, audit is impossible to say bew far many of tLem can be counted upon for op-poaition to tbe War measure of tbs President, even If the war shall not before they assume their seats have taken such a form, as to practioally determined one way or tbe other.

Tbe Jrurnat says Tbe present House of Representatives, at the opening of the last session, was politically classified as folloirs Republican, 10G Democrats 43 Unionists, 2o vacancies, 4 total, 173. For tbe next Congress th following State have held elections with tbe following result, so far as yet heard from? Maine, Massachusetts, Nsw Kork, Nsw Jenny, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ohio, Indiana, UiinoM, Michigan, isoooaia, Iowa, i Minnesota, Missouri In the present delegations from the above States ths Ropublioans iiad a clean majority over all of 49. Now it will be seen from th above that, riving the majority of tha doubt-lul to th Republicans, the opposition will have fa thee State delcgat-ons a majority. hia make a net gain ol S7, and more than exhausts the Republican majority in the Hot; a the other btate yet to elect standing a before. There will not probably be much ohange fa them, being th border States, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut.

2 On several occasions Geo. McCk-JUn bn telegraphed to ins that bis army wa dthoieut in Oort oio saptpfis. All tbm telegrams were--immediately referred to the Ueada ol Korea at with ordera to lepirL lt sal Oseertaiaad that icr every instance the requisition had been immediately filled, except on where toe Quartermaster General had been oulig-d to send from certain article of clothing, tents, nut having a full supply here. There has not been, so Ur jts I could ascertain, any neglect or delay in any Department or Bureau, ia issuing oU plies asked for by Geo. MuCfaliaa or by the officers ot his staff Delays have occasionally occurred in forwarding supplies by rail, oo account of the crowded condition of (bo depots or oi a want of cart but whenever notified of this, agents have been sent out to remove the difficulty.

UoJcr tbe excellent superintendence of Geo. Uaupt.I think these delays hav been less frequent aod ol aborter duration than is usual with freight tram. Ao army of tho sue of that Bader Gea. Mo-CieUxn will frequently be for some day without ttie supplies asked on aceount of neglect-io making timely requisition aod uus-voiJab'e delays in forwarding (bom, and in distributing lam to tbe dilierent brigade ai.d regiments. Frau, all toe information that I can obtain, I am of opinion that ihe requisition from tat aiiny nave been tilled mo pr imp that tbe men, as jt general rule, have Ix-eu tMtrr supplied than our armies operating ia tbs West, 'fn fatter bav operated at a much greater diataooo from tbe oouroee uf supply, aud have bad far ten lacilitte ior transportation.

In Hue, I believe no armies in tbe world, while in campaign, havo been more promptly or better supplied than ours. 3. xin alter the btttlo ut Antietam, Ueo.

On the first ot October, finding that ite purp wed to operate from Harpers ferry, I urged turn teens the river st ouce and give batun to the enemy, pointing out to him the disadvantages of delaying till tbe Autumn rains had swollen tbe fotuiAsu and impaired tbe ro ids.

On the Kith ut October, litwu peremptorily ordered to crus tne Potomac and give battle to ihe enemy or drive him doutn. Your army must move now while ihe roads are ft will bu oVervod that three weeks bav elapsed since this order was given. 4.

No complaint was made that any requisitions bad not been tiled, and it was interred Irom his language that he was only waiting lor tbe distribuiiou of bis supplies. On tiie llih (ie telegraphed that a portion ol his supplies sent oy lail had been delayed. As already stated, agents were immediately sent Iroui liei to investigate this complaint and they reported that thing bad gone forward.

Ou the same date (tbe 11th) ba spoke of many of bis horses being broken down by fatigue. Ou the 12ih ha complained that th raw of supply was only 159 burse per week for the entire army there and in front of Washington. I immediately directed th Quarter Stcr General to inquire into this matter, and report wby a larger eapply was not furnished. Gen.

Burnside ap pointed in bis place. The immcduis cause ol (his removal bos been Gen. McClellan's refusal to advance against the enemy, eves oo-der the most peremptory oners of the General-in-Chief. it Will be seen, by a letter from Gen. Halfeck to tbe Secretary of War, wbicb we publish in another column, that on the lei of October Gen.

McClellan was urged by Gen lialleck to cross the Potomac and give battle to tbe enemy, being at tb some time reminded of tbe disadvantage of delaying Wn-bl tb Putomae should be swoilea, and tbt roods impaired, by the autumnal rains. Finding that this produced no effect. General McClellan wo peremptorily ordered by Gen. lialleck, on tbe 6th of October, io cross the Potomac and give battle la th enemy or drive him South." For three weeks ibis order was not obeyed, and the oaly excuse given for not obeying it, eo far- appears, tbe want of supplies, shown by the letter oi Gen. lialleck to have been utterly without foundation.

Tbe disclosure of that letter, concerning Gen. McClellan constant and reiterated complaints of lack of supplies, are very remarkable and deserve special attention. We presume that this particular instance of disobedience of orders, though tbe immeji-te not the whole cause ot General McClellans removal. It is pretty generally understood that this is only tbe culmination of a systematic disregard of orders, of a steady and obstinate tardiness in tbe conduct of the campaign against tbe rebels, and of a consequent inefficiency in command, which would long ago have secured hia dismissal under any Administration fas timid than that which has now possession ot power. The fifteen months during wbicb ho bos had virtual control of toe war have been utterly barren of results to tbe cause bss professed to serve.

Few commander io history have bad such splendid opportunities, and fewer still have so ostentatiously thrown them away. itb an army cap tbie of the most heroic achievements, powerful in numbers, unrivaled in discipline and equipment, eager always for active and onward movement, ha ban accomplished absolutely nothing but success ful retreat from interior forces, and tbe defence of tbe Capital at Washmgtoa, which be should have left no foe capable of menacing The rebel armies have grown up in his presence, and by bis toleration. Through all bis long career he bai md but one attack and won but a single victory ani that became absolutely frm tines through his fadure to follow it up. have no theory oo which to explain this most e.trdordinary failure ot Geo. Mo Ciellao as a commander, or the still more extraordinary persistence of tbe President in committing tbe foi tunes of war to his hand.

Gen. McClellan has shown too many of the qualities ol an accomplished soldier to attribute hi failure to simple incapacity. That be is absolutely dialojal to ie Government wc have new permitted ourselves to believe. Yet we think it qljgie probable that his heart has never been in the war, that through it all be has had hopes of a compromise which should end it, and that Be baa feared the effect upon such a compromise of a S'ern and rehntiess prosecution of hostilities, ills pi sition and possibly his feelings have been those ascribed by Macaulay to Essex, who commanded tbe armie of tbe Parliament at tbe outbreak of too great civil war. He was an accomplished soldier and a Parliamentarian but be shrunk from civil wai he hoped through it all fir an aoc jtmn idahon wi-h the King, and "nett to a great defeat he dreaded a great victory," Under such a leader the war could never prosper, ani it was sxm found necessary to replace him by Hampden, wbo carried into tiie tiel 1 the boldness and courage he had shown in politics, and who bad the sagacity to see from tbe outset that in tear of all kinds, moderation is imbecility." As a pilitictan, Gen.

McClellans sympathies, previous to the rebellion, had always been with tbe South. He has believed them wronged by Northern sentiment and by Northern Action. And beyond all question, he has bOied and believed that a time would come when tbe war could be arrested. I wben tbe Southern leader. b-el by a piwerlul party ia toe Northern States, would listen to terms of accommodation, and that nothing would stand in the way of such a com prom ise more than a victory which should wound their pride by humiliating their arms and crLsbing their power.

In this view of the case, Gen. McClellan baa been encouraged by the olitical partisans who, st an early stage in tbe war, dude him tbeir prospective candidate for the Presidency, and came thus to have an interest in putting him fa opposition to tbe Administration which be professed to serve. They defended his errors, and made themselves the special champions of bis worst mistakes. They bod unquestionable provocation and some exeu-e for much of this in tbe intemperate zeal with which he was assailed bat they betrayed him into an undue reliance on the support party, mnd a ruinous subserviency to their wishes and views. We know not bow eUo to account for tbe steady and systematic d-sre-gard he has shown ot tbe isbes and orders of the Government, and for bis adherence to a deliberate and methodical inactivity, which has brought tie cause of tbe Union to the very verge ot ruin.

Unless we have been misinformed, President Lincoln bus on two occasions written to Gen MeCIclUo, reviewing in detail bis military operations, and demonstrating bis failures to respoud to the wishes sndjust expectation ot the Government. Ooe ot these papers was prefared just after McClellan had landed on the Peninsula, the other after the battle of Antietum and we have heard both spoken of as uiasterpi.oee of military criticism. It is a melancholy satisfaction to foam that the President ut tbe United Status, who is Commander in-Chief of all its arm its, and who is responsible, before God and tbe otuniry, for tbe behavior of iis General, did not keep Gen. MeClelho in command of the Army oi the Potomac from any confidence in bis ca p-city or bis fitness lor the place. Wby he did retain him so long alter be bad satisfied bimssll that he ought to be removed, it might be curious, I bough it would bo useless to Sfieculate.

trust that tbe first act ol Congress, when it meets next mocth, will be to Call for all I corresp-mdence, and all tb document of every kind, which can throw light upon the extraordinary campaigns ol this unliirtuaete commander. Gen. Burnside has bren three time offered tbe command of the Army ot tbe Poto mac. He declined it twice, partly from a strong feeling of personal affection for Gen McClellan, and partly from thorough eoiib denca iu bis military capacity, and his devo tiou to tbe Uni cause. This eo fidcoce, vr suspect, was somew-ist shaken during arid after tbe battle ut Autletsui White tn-j treat meat be ba siuce received for baving rein in against tbe g.

Herat's caurel-ss suspension of tue fight, bos released hi ju from personal obligations on which, be was previously inclined to lay such controlling stress We presume, therefore, that he will not ac cepi the command. He bat shown thus far during tbe war great military ability, and a thorough, unqualified, unquestioning devotion to the cause he serves. What ha will be able to accomplish remain to be scon, it is now certain that, in consequence of the extra irdmary delay in the movement of oui army. the rebels have completely eluded them, and are now beyond tbeir reach. Tbe a-tutnnal rains have commenced; tbe rivers end small streams of Virginia are i longer fordable the road are oeeotutng muddy and impracticable and all rapid and effective movement ia nearly impossible.

It fo wo any part of Gen. McClellan' purpose to revom a decisive battle with the rebel army, he was probably loft in oummaod just long enough to accomplish his object. Why Goa MoCleUaa was Removed.

The following is an extract from a private letter, dated New Orleans Oct. 16, written by ao officer ia tbe 26th Massachusetts regiment What is thought in your section of tbe country of Gen. B. F. Butler's niggers Isnt be ahead? Our department boasts of one full regiment, and another nearly full.

The field and staff officer are white the line offioere colored. 1 believe the material is good for soldiers. At any rate the must perfect discipline is attainable. I have understood that the 2d Regiment wish for white fin officers, as they have more confidence in the white as leaders, than in their own race Affairs in this department are as quiet as usual. Th city as calm and unruffled os the great Pyramids of Egypt that it is better governed than ever before is the united testimony of all good citixena.

Our Commanding General is loved by tbe poor feared by the rich, and respectea by all. 1 suppose you have heard bow auddenly loyal the people become, in view of tbe ap-. preaching confiscation. Fifty-five thousand people suddenly became aware of the duty they owed their pockets, and hastened to renew tbeir allegiance to their natural protector. A few thousand registered tbemselvts as enemies but many of them returned, and, very sensibly, bad that stain wiped out ot tbeir lives.

ftWs have many rumor here, buttbey dont create much excitement Tbe talk now is i bst 20,00 rebels have been gathered at Do-nalsville (a noted guerrilla resort)' 75 miles above here on the river, baving-for tbeir ob-yct the recapture of New Orleans. Rumor also says that to oo-operete with them are 30,000 more at Pontchaioula. They are ac j-ing to see this city des'ruyed, for they believe the people to be more interested in tneir own personal affairs than they are in the aucoess el the Confederacy. I believe that myself at any rata very lew are willing to make per sunal sacrifice lor the attainment of tbe eod of the Th Proclamation la a speech at -and Rapids, Mich Person Brownlow thus referred to the proclamation I am here to-day for th purpM of endorsing Linoulo's Euwncipatiua Proclamation, (fur this reason that it will unit ih North; and you haven't been untied and the rebel bav because tbe rebels have no principle a', stak and when you put them to the wall they iotendod to have issued a proclamation of universal emancipation, ami men demand ed the protection of England and Franoe and I am glad that Old Abo has aken th wind out of their sails. Applause Slavery is a gone-up institution.

This war will make it so. There cannot a man with a thimble full of brain laughter -who doe not know it will put down toe institution oi slavery, It is a significant fact that Southern refugees are unanimous in endorsing ib mancipation proclamation, evtn if they own slaves.

It looks gloomily enough about tfiswmp, and every body is glad to beepin' doore, and beg the etove -ae lovingly as be would a fair friend at home. Notbisg of very grea( importance bps transpired In tbs regiment since 1 wrote you last, aside from tbe stereotyped routine of camp do tie. Drilling and fatigue duty is now tbs order of tbs day, and on Saturday afternoon hare a gam of amusement for exercise in tbe stead of battalion drill, fa th shop of a foot ball match, which is considered as a very favorable substitute. 'To be, sure, barked skins are quite numerous, but notwithstanding, all seem to join fa tbs fun and enjoy it amaxingly.

1 1 Several regiments which have been encamped fa this vicinity struck tents and left for the advance of our army on Saturday afe ternooo, and were fa tbe battle of Sunday and Monday. Quits a number of the new 9 months regiments have also arrived during the past week, and Arlington Heights is completely spotted with the white tents ot new troops. Three of th new Vermont regiments are at work on tbe fortifications adjoining the outskirts of Fort Lyon. Oar oompany was quit surprised, while doing fatigue duty on one of th fortification a few days sine, to some acroM a young fallow named A Rioe Tyler, 'wbo enlisted In Oo. B.

and afterwards skedaddled' while ths 34th was at Camp Wool. He having been honored with tbe epithet of Jigadier Brindle, while fa th company, th numerous salutations received were all accompanied with this title. He teemed thunderstruck at snob an unexpected meeting with bis old comrade but after some little hesitation, he freely ooo-vereed'with the boye, giving them a full history of his adventure since hi departure from Ht bad taken fot himself a fair partner, and bad deserted ones from tbe regiment be is now In, but was toon after captured, and returned back to bis oompany. in fa Co. Htb Vennont, a nine month regiment Cummins, who deserted fra our company, full aooount of which 1 gave you fa my last, baa not been beard from at yet, and it is quite probable that be has enlisted fa the navy ere this, as be bad frequently expressed bis intention wbds here, to join a man-of-war fieet Tbe recent order allowing volunteer to join the regular army, caused quite a fever" to exist fa camp, and it bad begun to spread to a considerable extent, when the Colonel soon remedied it, by giving a careful view of tbe wbol thing, to tbe Regiment, exhibiting to them the difference between tbe two branches of service, and concluded by advising those wbo were so very anxious for tbe change to go, as tbe regiment oould ret along as well fa their absence as now, anq he presumed a great deal better euSce it to say, tbe fever" is now about played out" Th health of the regiment does not seem to improve very speedily, but remains fa an average oondition.

Much fault is found with tbe surgeons, and hardly a word fa their favor, bare I ever beard. The recent order of tbe War Department recommending an examination of all tbe surgeons now fa the employ of tbs Government, and their removal, 11 proved Inefficient, will probably eaus a clear out in many of the regiments, and I trust that a most rigid examination will produoe the desired effect. Three mors deaths have occurred fa tbs hospital sino I wrote you left, two of th deceased being member of Co. from Westfield. It ia with feelings of tbe deepest sadnens that I have to announce tbe first death among tbe Pittsfield boys.

That of Edgar W. Fairbanks, (drummer ot Co. CapL Cooley,) after an illness of only about a week, ol typhoid fever. He died yesterday afternoon. He bad been fast sinking ever since tbe commencement of bis indisposition, but it was hoped that would yet survive.

Young Fairbanks, a a brother soldier, friend and companion, will ever be endeared to bis eom-rides and all wbo knew him, by his virtues, bis noble character, and his upright oonduet. Hs was highly esteemed by every member of his company, and tbs sad intelligence o( bit death will strike a deep pxng of sorrow to his stricken parents and friends at home. He joined bis company with patriotic impulses, and it was little dreamed that he would called away so soon by tbe rude band of death.

Tnere bare been several change and new appointment in tbs regiment, io which our company has shared. Chpt.A. D. Pratt of Co. ba been promoted to be Major Companies and which were destitute of captains hare both been supplied.

Lieut Chandler of the 1st Mss, regiment Laving bren promoted through the recommendation of CoL Wells to th captaincy of Co. and 1st Lieut. Leach of Co. to the captain6! of G. Our 2d Lieutenant, Wm.

S. Cobb has been promoted to 1st Lieutenant, and baa filled that vacancy in Co. and Orderly Sergeant Henry Unll, of Co. is now 2d Lieut of Co. B.

This last operation is not favored very highly by tbe company, and to speak the sentiment that prevail among the boys, partiality has been shown to another eompany by choosing a eommiusioned officer from ite rank and placing him bver one wbo occupies tha cams poaitioa fa our own oom-paay, wbo is as folly capable of bolding the office. Then again, to take the matter fa another light, a oompany raised fa tbe town where ite members belong, should have ham ejicart, and when onoe appointed they should stand the first chance promotion, through whatever hangs igbt happen. Lieut. Hail ba not taken bis new poeitkm ns yet, on aooount of his indisposition. Jim, oar orderly, ba taken bis position fa the ranks again, and was weloomed hack by enthusiastic cheers and a unanimous consent of th boys.

The latest camp rumor is that th 84th is to form a part ot Gen. Banks expedition to Texts, and as it is to be oom posed of sight Massachusetts three year regiments, I think th report may turn out true, a that number of troop cannot be very easily obtained without counting fa the 34tb. The idea of going further into Dixte than sow are, is of oouree favored by some, while it is condemned by other. For my own part, I don't think tbe change would be very beneficial to tbe health of tbe regiment. Preparations ar still fa progress, plainly showing that Camp Lyon is to the winter quarters of some regiment.

Yon remember what a stormy day had ia whioh to travel here. It really teemed a though old King Winter was determined to make us feel hi eold and ioy grasp in a manner not to be misunderstood. is generally eoooedod that our -regiiseot formed their line preparatory to leaving camp and got to the station at Pittsfield and in tb cars more expeditiously and fa batter order than any regiment which has previously left Weetorn do not say this boastingly. It is all owing to the executive and military ability of our worthy Colonel and bis under offioere. As we approached Dalton ware greeted with a national salute also at Backet.

At Springfield part of th regiment received hot coffee, there not being enoegh made for the whole regiment, owing to tbe oommittoe having been misinformed in regard to the number of men io the regiment. Whilst partaking ot this refreshment, the loud cannons booming bade us a hearty welcome. About 5 o'clock P. the cars halted at Worcester Junction and tbe regiment retired therefrom, formed into line and marched immediately to camp Wool, distent nearly a mile. Soon after arrived at our quarters, where found a oomlorteble fire awaiting us, whioh bad been made by order of our gentlemanly Sergeant Major, who left at Brookfield and came here by tbe express train that passed us at that station.

There are ten good aiaed building alluwsd for the privates and uoo-oommissioned offioere of the regiment, one for each oompany. They are roomy, well ventilated and warm, and I hardly need tell you that needed such quarters after our miles march in tha bail storm of the evening oo which we arrived here. i Th Fifty-First are also stationed fa this camp, a short distanoe from our carters. Tha Worcester paper stated last night that our regiment and th 61st would both leave at once on board the steamers Mammae and Mississippi, how on their way to Newborn with troops, eo soon as they return from their present voyage. In making oommeot on the regiment fa your paper last week, you apparently forgot tbe Allen Guard.

In Co. there Corporal Watkins and son, two Raredea brother also Joseph Maleomb, on of three ro there in the service James Bassett, one of three brothers now in tbe Service one of whom is fa tbe 11th Mass. and has been fa all the battles in which that valiant regiment ha been engaged and has not received a wound or injury of any kind John Wademaa, one of three brother now in the servioe, on of whom has been on board a stan-of-Mv for seven years past George, William and Lyman Reed; William and Seth Jones. All these noted above are, I believe, residents of your own town and immediate vicinity. Major Merry, of your village has, in this regiment four soos, one eon-in-law and four or five nephews.

One of bis eon is Dram Msjore sod another on is Col. Bartlett's attendant. You spok of the Luddiogton brother ia Co. D. There are but five brother in tbe family, nod when that Company first entered Camp Briggs, they were all in it, but one was rejected by the mustering officer.

The ooe rejected was by far tbs strongest looking man of the number, but hi teeth were so defective that the mustering officer concluded they were not sufficient to manage tbe bard tack and crackers, whioh will likely be our bill of fare pretty soul Pardon the.dull monotony of this letter, remembering that it is a cheerless, rainy day fa camp, and one naturally feels depressed aP such tunes, I hope I shall be able to write something of interest to your readers soon.
