Gen. McClelion has been removed from tbe command of the army of the Potomac, and Oen. A. B.

McClellan ta relieved from all duty, and Is on his way to Trenton, N. Tba causes which led to MeClellan's removal are yet matters of speculation; but a letter written by i Gen. Ballech to Secretory Stanton shows tbat Oen 8., on tbe ltt of October, advised a forward movemont, and on tbo o'th peremptorily ordered it Neither of these movements having been carried out, it is inferred tbat this led to his removal A want of supplies, according to Oen. H. let ter, Is shown not to have been tho cause of the ar Imy inaction yet a dispatch from Gen.

McCleli lan, dated October UAd. ultimo, whilst disc eluilng i any reflection on the Quartermaster General's Dej partment, yet reiterates that certain portions cf his command were without clothing, and oould not i move until supplied. Oen. Burnside's headquarters are at Warrenton, which haa bean in the ponsession of tbe Federals siace Thursday, tbe 6th. All officers belonging to tbe army of tbe Potomac are ordered to their several commands immediately.

The Chronicle snd Republican, of Washington; ihe Bew York Tribnnt, and Bew York Timet, approve of McClellan's removal. The Tribune says: "Though done at the last hour, lt ta not too late, it trusts, to save the country." Tho Herald and the World ore down on tbe removal. They say the President has again yielded to the Badica! pressure. The reports to regard to dissatisfaction ia the army growing out of the removal, are pronounces unfounded by the Government news agent at Wash, ington. In Philadelphia tbe removal of MeClellau met with no sort of favor; bis friends condemned it whilst the Radicals said It was no time to change commanders In the face of the enemy.

The first intimation Gen. McGlellan had of bis removal was the notification to that effect brought him by Gen. Buckingham. Oen. McClellan lock formal leave of tbe different army corps last Menday.

On Sunday night the of. jjec-rs assembled at his headquarters to bid him adieu. Tha only toast offered by Gen. McClellan was this laconic oue: "The army of tbe Potomac" At a Democratic "jubilee" meeting in Bew York on Monday night, John Van Bur. said that Lincoln bad made McClellan the next President of the whole Onion, though it would be under an amended Constitution.

Ira Harris, Republican Senator of Bew York, also denounced lt to an open speech. General McCl'llan, In quitting Warrenton, said to the troops, "Stand by B.ruslde as you have stood by ma, and all will be well." THE NEWS FROM CHANCB OF INTERVENTION LYONB COMISO TO RICHMOND IN ENGLAUD ABOUT THE BLOCKADZ OF THE BERMUDA roRTS. Lord and Simon Cameron, U. 8. Minister to Bussia, arrived by the Scotia In New York on Saturday last.

Mr. Cameron says Bussia is very friendly still to tbe United States. In England lt It thought Intervention will take place till Parliament Meets. Ho akto says an attack by a rebel fleet fitting out In Europe upon Atlantic cities ls by no nieaas Improbable, and recommends strengthening tbe fortifications at Bew York. The Bnglieh Cabinet meeting which was to take place on tbe 23d of October was postponed on tbe morning of the meeting.

AU tbe members except Lord Palmerston came to attend it. Tbe Times aays there are two interpretations given why the meeting waa net held, one that there ls a division in the Cabinet, Sir G. 0. Lewis representing one party, and Hon. Mr.

Gladstone the other. But the thinks the rue solution is, that Sir G. G. Lewis expresses the op inion of the whole Cabinet, and whilst Bngland regrets the shedding of blood, she does not mean to Interfere. This opinion Is confirmed by the Naval and Shipping Goeette, ot Liverpool.

Lord Lyons, though returning is fully advised aa to the views of the British Cabinet. the Baltimore that Lot Lyons will visit Bichmond within ten days after bia arrival at Washington. The English papers seem to bo exercised at the. blockade established by Com. Wilkes over the Bermuda porta, and Admiral Milne is hurt rooted to increase his fleet at tbat station.

They seem to look upon it as the more offend ye, because it is under Wilkes. They have not forgotten tbo Trent affair. A dispatch from Washington, of tho 10th, says there is no apprehension of a foreign collision, union, it shall grow out of the course of England in allowing privateers to be fitted out in her ports to prey upon American commerce. A letter received in New York from Paris, dated Oct. 25th, says there is no likelihood al anything being done by Napoleon in favor of the rcbelaj until after tbo November eleetlena PENNSYLVANIA DIFFI.

CU-TIXB BETWEEN THB DRAFTED MEN ABD THB PROVOST GUARD. The removal of McClellan has brought things to a fever heat in Pennsylvania Ths Philadelphia Inquittr, of tho 18th, alluding to the precarious state of affairs at Camp Ourtin, the principal camp of the drafted men of the "Keystone State, says The state of feeling at Gamp Ourtin is unsettled, so far ss tho drafted men are concern d. Tbe objections to going into the old are persisted in, while the idea of giving np their company organisations is regarded ss an act of tyranny. It is bt contemplation to test the matter legally. Ths purpose ta to bring a esse before a court, and test whether the men drafted eaa claim tho pro vision and protection of the State law nnder which they were called into service, or whether the officers now in tbe servloe caa force the drafted men la the old regimenta.

Thta woald he tho proper sod tbo safe of ssttling what ta really a grave difference, The dnty of the Provost guard at present is of a character at onoo onerous and dangerous. They occupy a position whleh ta not fairly understood by the men ta Camp Gurtio, with whom a difficulty exists ss to their disposal in companies and regiments. Ths Provost guard are bound to execute their orders. They are soldiers who know nothing Butobedtouce.onditistobe hoped that the drafted men will not tempt the Provost guard into what might seem to be, if not actually become, bloody force.

It was duced during the late canvass by the Bew Tork Tribune, to shew that Seymour meant to make peace with the rebsls i "Tbe condition of our affairs foroos upon us the alternative of compromise or civil war.

Let us contemplate the latter alternative We are advised by tbe conservative States of Virginia and Kentucky, that if force ia to be used it must be excited against tho united South It would be an act of folly and madness, in entering upon this oonteet, to underrate our opponents, and taut on eject oarselves to the disgrace of defeat in an ir.g'o.ious warfare.

Orpheus V. Kerr's Last.

the B. Y. Sunday Editor T. T.j—Barly this morning, my boy, I sauntered across the Long Bridge aud took my seat on tho topmost rail of a fenoe enclosing a trampled meadow. There 1 sat, like Marias, my boy, contemplating the architectural ruin embodied Iv my gothio steed, Pegasus, and ever and anon whistling abstractedly to my fresoeed dog, Bologna By the gods I 1 really love these dumb friends of mine.

The speculative eve of tbe world sees in poor Pegasus nothing more than an architectural dream chare- architecture of tbe I mutt confess, my boy. that the gothio charger does look something like a skeleton chapel at a distance; it sees in Bologna only a mongrel cur, whose teste for the col vsb cf human legs on eplcurian outrage on walking society. Bat for me, my boy, there ta a human pathos in tbe patient fidelity of these soologisal curiosities whlob appeals to my best manhood. I have had a hard and thankless life of it; my experience with tho political chaps of tho Sixth Ward wee enough to grind everything like human tenderness out of my nature, snd make me tarn aa arrogant and contemptuous misanthrope; bat there ere times when tbe cold nose of Pegasus againit my cheek, or a wag frcm that speaking tail of ever turas op behind him libs a note of la terrogation, to sab how but master will give me such a sensation of wishing to protect and be kind to tbe helpless that I fsel myself a better man for the practical Christianity of sneh bumble society. Why does not the Mackerel Brigade advance! Thta, my boy, is ths qosstioa of the hour.

For what do oar heroeeweltf Is It for Indis rubbers, or or fine-tootb combs No, be aot deceived; it is for none of those. Hem I Ths fset ta, mv boy, many rsspoctable, though mania-, Mackerels entered the army of tbe Aeeoa-M when they were In the prime of life, and ss age steals softly apoa them, as ths seasons and the basis of operations ran through their ehaoges, end year BBBBBMB year, tho eyesight of many of them waxes dim and falls bt the process of nature. I know some thousands of Mackerels, bt boy, who are already so blind tbat thsy have not saea a rebel for six mouths; and kenee, ao advance movement eon bs Judiciously mode until tho ta supplied with spectacles. Without these theidolised Oeneral of the Mackerel brigade will not do nor thins until he gets ready. It was the want of t-aseTss 1 now dleeover, that prevented oar trooDS seeing the Southern Ooafeaeroey when aeroat Alkwyet rivsr.

Here the attached boa-men sniffled and shook bis head. "Are you pious T' says Oolontl Woblnscn much affected by such an exempt; of humble devotion. "Tee, mart'r. ILi aava the fond creature, wiping his brow with a dlk vest from his drsssooat pocket, 'and I wished to osve my ota inert from de ato of de wiebed.

I know dat it was wrong him to own nlggas, aad dst hs wss more siaful ds more he done It. And I am run away, mars'r Colonel, to seve dat ole man's brestum soul from any more dam." Colonel Woblnson took off hia spectacles, to order tbat the steam from bis tears might not dim them, and says he i "I hsd not looked for sll this la one so Leave these silver spoons with me, friend Africa, and I will send tbem to my wife. Sergeant, convey this dark being, who has taught us all sneh a lessen of self tacrifioe, to the chaplain, and tell the chaplain to look out for his pocket" How beautiful it ta, niy boy. to sec io tbe uncouth, unlettered slave a spirit of piety so ahiningly practical. When I behold the tantalized bondman evince sneh signs of religion, I an remind-, of those tender and precious little babes who some times delight their mothers frith exalted utterances of the like, aad am inclined to belie re tbat one knows Just aa much aboat it ss the other does.

It pains me deeply to say, ray boy, that Captain Yllliara Brown so far forgot himself on Wedaes dsy, upon the discovery of the non-arrival of his spectacles, tbat he used language of an incendiary description against the beloved General of the Mackerel Brigade, thereby proving himself to be one of those oraay fatal ice who are trying to ruin onr dial reeled country. He sold, my boy, that the adored General of the Mackerel Brigade was a deadbeat, and furthermore observed that he would be very sorry to take his word. Snob language oould not pass unnoticed, and a Court of Inquiry, composed of Captains Bob Shorty, Sa-iyule Sa-titb, and Colonel Wobert Wobineon, was instantly called The Court had a decanter and tumbler, enly, to aid Its it being determined by the War Department that no fact which could be detected even by the aid of a glass should go uninspected. Tilliam having been summoned to the presence, Samyule declared tbe Court in session, and says be: "The sad duty has become ours to investigate oerttng chirget against a brother In arms which bas heretofore bean the mirror of chivalry. It is specified against him i That aaid Captain Yilliam Brown, Bskevtre, did affirm, declare, avow, testify, and arUealate with his tongue, Htker, and organ of 'peach, that the Oeneral of ths Mackerel Brigade was a dead-beat' "'Statnd That aforesaid Capt Tllilam Brown, Bskevire, did proclaim, utter, enunciate, and fulminate, that be would net take tke word of tiro General of the Mackerel "What has the culprit to say to these chargest Did he aay that our ldoltaed sommsnder was a deadbeat 1' Villiaa smiled aalmly, and says he: "The ahaste remark exactly fits tka oriflee of my 1 "Confine yourself to Bngliah," says Colonel Woblnson, majestically.

And after death, you know," says 1111 am, reaching ona band abstractedly toward the decanter, "after you know, see must all b'aaUn by worms Tbe explanation, my boy, was satisfactory, and oonveyed a grave moral lesson but the Court felt aonvlneed that the second charge eculd not be thus amply answered. Capt. Samynle Sa raid) set down tbe tumbler for a moment, and says he: "You're not guilty on the first count, Yilliam; but dldn'i you say that you wouldn't take the word of the General ot the Mackerel Brigade "Which I did," says Viiliam.

"And what excuse havo you to offer, my trooper?" Capt. Bob Shorty, pointing his question with his spoon. "Is tba Oeneral a gentlemanf" saya Villlam, searchlngly. The Court believed him to be such. "Ah aays Yilliam, "titan it he's a gantieman he always keeps his word, and of oourse it la impossible for any one to take it." Verdict of "not guilty, with a recommendation to mercy." Courts of Inquiry, my boy, us calculated to drew out the rich Lumor of military character, and are eq-aily useful and appropriate with all ether jokes, in times of devastating war.
