    Of those weasels there is not mue}, cause for alarm ;

    REASONS FOR M‘LELLAN’S DISMISSAL. |

    The removal of General McLellan is the all-|
    absorbing and exciting topic of the hour. The |
    reasons alleged for his retirement from command
    are Various and conflicting. A report from Gen.
    Halleck, written over a week ago, assigns whut
    might be termed the military reasvus, or a portion
    of them, if auy such there be. It appears by this

    ordered to eruss thePotomae and give battle to

    Boulogne, aud is considered a total loss.

    THe GALeE.-—Onee more the equinoetial torna-
    do bas visited our shores, and, as might be expect-
    ed, they are strewn with wreeks. No part of the
    coast oppor to be exempt from the operations
    of the elements, for the storm which began on
    Saturday still continues, and has ere this ranged
    rownd the island. ‘The discomfort of the wind and
    rain ashore was bad enough, but how much more |
    must it have been felt by our brave mariners!
    Every year since 1559 we have had the lesson |
    read to us with feartul significance, that it is a
    solemn duty to watch and construe the porten-
    tuoys indicatiogs of coming gales. Admiral Fitz-
    roy has steadily devoted himself for years to the
    study of meteorological science in its application
    to the purposes of shipping, and yet we find that
    his warnitigs are whebidle and that thousands of
    lives are saerafiaed to a desire te save a few days
    time. At Liv , at Portsmouth, at liall, at
    Shields, off Beachy Head, off Folkestone, off the
    South Foreland, and elsewhere, vessels have been
    seen Le go down, sometimes with all hands. There
    are three remedies to be applied to such a state
    ot things fer the future. the first is te arm the
    ‘Trinity [Louse aad the agents of Lloyds with power
    to prevent veesels proceeding to sea when Ad-
    miral Fitzroy has telegraphed the coming of a gale
    by whieh they may cither be met or overtaken.
    We are williag te admit that sometimes Admiral
    Fitzroy has proved a little too prophetic, and has
    semmetynes béegn falsified by the event; but on this
    oevasion the myerted bene, apex dowuwards, only
    1 truly told the gallant “collier” of Shields that
    they would be Gaugtt off the Herd Sands or Flaw-
    boro’ Head, if they ventured out. We can admire
    the bravery, but thust doubt the wisdom of eap-
    tains who risk crew, yeysel, and cargo in such cir-
    cumstaueces. The lives of seamen are toe valuable
    to be sported with in a country whose greatness
    depends upon her wavy and mereantile marine.—

    HOUSING DHE FRENCH TROOPS AT ROMP.

    General de Montebello has demanded from the
    Roman municipality different buildings for lodging
    his troops, and the saunicipality is about to place
    them at his dispesal. ‘Phe expense of housing the
    French troops agounted last year to a million of

    Gengpal de Montebello led to the supyosjtion that
    the aywy of eeeupation was to be cousiderably in-
    ereased, but that report is without foundation.

    for supplies were forwarded. On the other hand
    it is confidently stated that the removal of Ge-
    neral McClellan was long since decided upon;
    that the President could ne longer resist the de-
    mands of the ultra radicals, in their exasperation
    at the result of the recent elections, and that
    MeClellan lias been sacrificed to political malice.

    Whatever may be the causes, positive or alleg-
    ed, of his removal, General MeLellan’s wititary
    record stands well, and we ean only hope that
    his suecessor, General Burnside, will carry out to
    a siecessful issne the plans he bad se ably laid
    and was pushing to accomplishinent, without the
    mterterence and obstructions which a factious
    opposition constantly placed in the way of the
    retiring commander whenever there was a_pros-
    peet of any decisive result accruing from the stc-
    cessful movements of his army.

    Majer-Gen. McClellan left Warrenton with his
    staff at 11 o'clock ou Tuesday. Despatehes give
    his farewell address whieh was read to the troops

    speech at Warrenton mm response to the cheers of
    the suldiers who were drawn up in line to receive
    him. At various points on the redunbt his reeep-
    tion was wari and enthusiastic. Preparations
    have been made to receive him with due honor at
    Philadelphia and Trentou. LHe arrived at Balti-
    more at 3.20 p.in., but did not stop in that city.

    FINAL LEAVE OF MCLELLAN.
    General M‘Clellan took a final leave on Sunday
    evening of the gallant Army of the Potomac, which
    he had done so much te organize, which had
    shared with him so many perils, and had invested
    him with so much of its contidence and esteem. |

    while the gontinuons applause of the men spoke
    fully their love for the young General who was
    paying them his parting visit. In the evening the
    olfeers attached to General M'Clellan’s head-
    quarters all assembled in his tent to say farewell.
    How impressive the seene was may be imagined.
    Ouly Gné toast was given on the oecasion, and
    that was by the General himself. It was simply,

    FROM THE SOUTH.

    Our news from Richmond is of an important
    charactey and is dated yp te the Sth inst, Gen.
    Lee had arrived there two weeks ago and is said
    te be still there, acting as Commander-in-Chiet
    and military adviser to the War Department.
    The active Gommand of the enemy's forces in the
    field has devolved upon Gen. Joe Jainston, whe
    has his headquarters at Culpepper. The Merri
    mae No, 2 is completed, and now lies below Fort
    Darling ready for mischief at the mouth of the
    James river

    The Richmond papers devete much space to
    the Northern elections. ‘The ‘Whig’ thinks that
    it the asseveratious be all true, “the tide has set
    against Abraham Lincoln and bis rampant war
    party,” and that the success of the democrats
    may be regarded as about eqnal to a declaration
    of peace, but it does aot credit the “ eleetioncer-
    ing asseverations.” Tt has no doubt, however,
    that the Nopthern conservatives are dissatistied
    aith the mode ef canduetiyg the war.

    The same jourpat describes the condition ot
    the rehel army as heartrending for the want of
    clothing and shoes, and strongly condemns the
    government for vegleet. It suys it cannot be
    trusted, hag no torcthought, or is entirely indit-
    ferent to the condition of the troops, and adds
    that it were better that the President, with his
    Cabinet, his etn General and all their
    aids, should Walk these jiey streets with nuked
    feet UH spring than that our noble army shoy}d
    be in the condition in which this blast of winter
    finds them.” The * Dispatch’ has an account of
    the late expedition to Williamsten, N. C.. by onr
    troops, which it claims to have resulted in their
    defeat. General Beauregard has ordered yon-

    able property.
    to be removed, te avoid eubarrassment and delay
    in case a sudden necessity should arise tor the
    removal of the entire population.

    The ‘Examiner’ says: “The prospect of Eu-
    ropean intervention has dissolved hke a snow
    wreath. Duta shert time ago there were hope
    ful indieatious that England and France were
    about to take some action in this war that would
    be favorable to the South. This opinion was re-
    fleeted not only in the journals of the enemy but
    iu the minds of intelligent foreigners on this side
    the Atlantic. It is knewn that on the strength
    of the calculation of our national existence being
    early receguized by England and France, tran-

    capitalists tn Confederate bonds at 36 cents on
    the dollar. There is, however, no mistaking the
    significance of the speech of the British Secretary
    of War, in which he asserts that the Seuth has
    not yet aeemnplished her independence, and must
    | be regarded as a belligerent holding an uneertain
    position in an undecided war. The British Go-

    manner, by adopting the Inappropriate title of
    an “Lrish Gathohe,”’ ta damage that paper jn the
    wyes of Catholics geacratly.

    “An Trish Catholic” informs the pubic that a
    certam inexpressibly mean article which appeared
    in the ‘Monitor’ in reference to myself, is merely
    | retaliatory.” Why it should be se, [ am ata

    prietor or the editor of the ‘Monitor! Per aps

    “an Trish Catholie’s ” apology for the article re-

    of it,
    himself useful in furnishing ideas for the byibtrant
    editorials which appear ut the same periodical.
    ile is also known to have eulogized and xy

    thized with the Colonial Seeretary during that
    official’s crusade against Catholie clergymen;
    nor will the doubtful “ Irish Catholic” dare deny
    that he availed himself, on two different occasions,
    of an official position, te gratify personal auinosity
    —in the first instance, against several Catholic
    gentlemen, who overlooked hin ina coveert which
    they gaye for a charitable purpose: and, m the
    second, against “a stranger” and an ecclesiasiic,
    who had the kindness to lecture before the Cathe
    lic Young Men's Institute. For this latter vie-
    lation of his position, “Au Irish Catholic” received,
    at the hands of the President of the Institate,
    a Well-nerited castigatiou before a pu lcgmepigoce.
    The individual who has been of mis.
    demeanors, and who has been, on several ecca-
    sions, the great disturber of Catholic liarmony,
    has the hardihood to inpiously talk of “ the sea:m-
    less garb of Christ,” —of Catholic unity, and of
    the iniquity of harboring malice against any one.
    He cadeavours to make himself appear as injured
    imecence, trom the fact that it was rumored and
    hinted that he was the writer of the article m the
    ‘Weekly’ whieh has been alluded to, Until sueh

    tu be above suspicion or censure, it Wi ‘be in vain
    for him to get inte a passion indulge in false-
    hood and wisrepresentation against others to save
    his own reputation; and betore he again rashes

    fer truth, charity, and common sense than }
    evinced in the ungrammatical, nonsensical,
    walicious communication under consideration
    “An Trish Catholic” exhibits an equal disregard
    for common sense and the sinnplest rules of gram-
    mar as he does for “ deeeney” and truth. ‘Thus,
    in reference te his influence, he writes:—‘ A
    persou at length induced you to publish an ar-
    ticle which—having spoken to others of more in-
    fluence,” &e. The reader is at a loss to under-
    stand whether it is the “article” which has spoken
    te others of more influence than itself, or spoken
    to others of more influence than the “ person at
    length.” The following sentence is net remark-
    able for its perspicuity:—*I have only to add
    that “ Ecolier’’ is vot aware that the person now
    absent trou the Colony, to whom the uugenerous
    allusion is mude iu the ‘ Vindicator, whilst his
    triend, ever did a dishonorable action.” The
    readers of the * Examiner" would be led equally to
    believe that the “allusion” was made to * the per-
    son now absent,” at a time when be was the friend
    ot the ‘ Vindicator,’ or of “ Ecoher” himselt,—it
    is not certain which, “An Insh Catholic”
    means to say that the person to whom the “ un-
    geverous allusion” was made, never did a dishou-
    oreble action whilst “* Keolier’s” friend. Further
    on, we read :-—* ‘Ecolier’ sat by his (own) bedside
    many times whilst the 1 alluded to was
    sick of a dangerous Aron A eeree he wasa stranger,
    and moreover from respect tothe Rev. geutleman,”
    &e. In the foregoing extract, an hitherto
    undiscovered cause of fever is brought before the
    public. Medical gentlemen must be in extacies
    at the unexpected light thrown upou pat-hology by
    the philanthropic * Lrish Catholic.”
    ing sentence also occurs :—* He could despise his
    censure but he could pot survive his praise.”
    | Neither that which precedes nor that which fol-
    | lows the above sentence of an “ Trish Catholie’¼”
    | communication tends in the least degree to remove

    Whom friends forsook, and fees abhorred ;— | the delightful uncertainty as to whe is meant by | recognizing the Southern Confe

    “he” or “his.” Daggers, ghosts, thunderbolts,
    | &e., appear to have been floating before “ Keu-

    ridered one of the leading provincial journals,
    The only way, Mr. Editor, im whieh lean acconnt
    ior its appearance in your paper is, that he must
    have stolen a march on you. It is certain that
    anything “* Au Lrish Catholic” ever wrote, from

    production, would cause in the mind of any
    one no other feeling than that of jon or con-
    tempt—not malice or envy, as he would wish the
    public to believe; and his claims on the of
    any paper must, therefore, be small indeed.

    I might, Mr. Editor, further expose the dupli-
    eity and nensense of the pseude “ Irish Catholic,”
    but my time ean be much more profitably em
    ployed than in noticing at greater length this
    unpotent though malicious attack. Believing that
    his case requires the early attention of some dis-
    ciple of _Esculapius, or of bis particular friends, I
    now resign him to his or thei charge.

    Yours, &e.
    EDWARD REILLY,

    Nov. I8th, 1862.

    not my business to censure him for it so long as
    le confines himself to truth, But when he appeals
    to me for a certificate of his loyal and religious
    feelings, L think I gm justified in complying with

    a

    Che Examiner.

    his request—eyen though he prefers it in the un-

    amiable character of a masked encmy—and parti-
    cularly as it comes to me through the celamns of
    the * Examiner.’ Well, then, as to the loyalty of
    the self-dubbed “ Irish Catholic,” J have sufficient

    evidence ot his devotion io his Queen and country

    from the fact that he absolutely refused to sing

    “ Rule Britannia” at a public concert last winter,

    because, he said, the words were antagonistic to
    his principles! His catholic sentiments, wo doubt,
    likewise led him to denounee, in my presenee and
    that of others, during the course of the past sum-
    mer, Catholic clergymen. Let him deny this if
    he can. “ An Trish Catholie’s” chief grievance
    against me is, that I am one of the publishers of
    the * Vindicator,’ and that I availed myself of that
    position to accuse hiw, unjustly, of the authorship
    of an article, which appeared in ‘ Ross's Weekly,’
    reflecting on certain Catholic clergymen. Whe-
    ther “ Ecolier ” was the writer Of the article in
    the ‘Weekly’ or not, is a matter of small mo-
    ment; suflice it to say, that when I heard the
    runor ot his being the contributor to that paper,
    L believed him possessed of the spirit to write the
    article alluded to, although | might haye known,
    from a pervious knowledge of his literary prodye-
    tions, that lhe lacked the ability to de se. 1 would
    also inform “ Ecolier” that I do not consider bim
    such an important personage that I should enter-
    tain against him either envy or malice; or that
    I should use my presumed influence over the
    ‘Vindicator’ to dower him in public estimation.
    T hold towards him no other feeling than that of
    prefound contempt for the duplicity practised by
    hin towards myself and others. “An Trish Ca-
    tholic’s” insinuation that he exerted his influence
    in vain, or otherwise, to save me from expulsion
    from a “ certain Tustiiute,”—~or that I was forced

    LATEST NEWS FROM EUROPE.

    Charlottetown, Noyember 24th, 1862.

    ARRIVAL OF THE EUROPA.

    THE English Mail, per Steamship Earopa, with
    Liverpool dates to the Ist instant, arrived at
    Halifax on Thursday night, the 13th inst. The
    Mail for this Island only came here on Wednes-
    day. The very stormy weather, whieh has pre-
    vajled for several days past has prevenied the
    Steamer Westmorland trom waking Mer trips with
    her accustomed regularity.

    The following embrace all the news.

    The Queen and her family have returned
    to Rngland. They left Antwerp in the Royal
    yacht Vicfjeria and Albert,on the 24th alt
    and anchored off Flashmg same night, the
    weather being very boisterous Chtaids »: he
    Koyal yaght got under weigh next morning,
    and, abandoning the idea of going direct to
    Osborne, roaetioh to, and anchored at the
    Nore. The gale increasing during the night,
    it was decided that her Majesty should pro-
    ceed in the Vivid from Greenhithe to Wool-
    wich, the state of the tide not permitting the
    Victoria and Albert to get higher up the river.
    The Queen ianded in strict privacy at the
    Koyal Doekyard, poner to Gosport, and
    crossed over to in the Fary. The
    Queen's hea)th is reported to be ;

    _ There has been no renewal of Garibaldian
    riots in England. Several arrests of parties
    suspected of participating in recent riots at
    Birkenhead have been made. Extensive pre-
    cautions were made in London to meet any
    emergency that might have arisen on Sunday,
    26th ult., ia the event of disturhances being
    renewed in Hyde Park, but everything pass-
    ed off quietly. It was estimated that over
    56,000 persons beyond the wsaal namber of
    visito:s entered the Park on that day. A

    g/l directions, and the troops were hill in.

    the letters of “ Ecoler” down to his last literary |

    Roman correspondence of the 18th of Oc-
    tober, says that on that day at sunset, the
    Holy Father left Castle Gandolfo at 3 p. m.,
    and entered Rome by the gate of St. Juba
    Lateran. Detachments of Freneh and Ponti-
    fical troops rendered him military honours,
    while the inbabitants received him with en-
    thusiasm. Pius 1X. was ing after
    baying during ‘

    montese revolutionist in ieg his Ro-
    man populations. The news of M. Thoa-
    vepel’s retirement has spread constermatiom
    among the enemies of the Papacy.

    The English, in spite of the ridicoloug—
    aiarms sa by the ‘Times, are flocking
    to the Eterna) City ; while Germans, Freneh,

    reckoning the Neapolitan emigration, are in-

    September the crowd of tourists, which
    usually only sets m about January, was al-
    ready filling the hotels.

    The French Police have seized, in one of
    the printing offices of Rome, a kind of Neopo-
    litan proclamation. ‘This seizure took place
    ‘at the instigation of the Sardinian Consul,
    who went himself to ask for it from the Cap-
    ‘tain of the French gendarmerie. The printer,
    whether from negligence or at the wish of
    the author of the proclamation, had omit-

    ted to ask for leave trom the local courtship
    to print it, and has been condemned to a
    heavy fine in consequence. :

    Alluding to the Queen of the two Sicilies,

    the co nee de Rome of last Saturday
    says :—** We are authorised to give a formal
    contradiction to the calumpies of the German

    press which have been repeated and added
    to by the bad Italian press, on the subjectsof
    the journey of Her Majesty the Queen of the
    Two Sicilies into Bavaria, and her short and
    pion retreat at the Ursaline Convent, Augs-
    urg. The Queen has seareely recovered
    from the injurious effect of the mental torture
    to which she has been subjected by the bra-
    tal attacks of the Seiwienine. i Sia ee

    APPOINTMENT ‘TO THE

    ANOTHER

    We observe by the ‘Royal Gazette’ of Wed-
    neaday last, that the Hon. Dr. Johnson, at present
    a member of the Legislative Council, has been
    appointed to a seat in the Exeeutive Couneil.
    Ou personal grounds there cannot be the slightest
    objection made to this appointment, for Dr. Johu-
    son is very deservedly respected by all whe know
    him for bis extensive educational acquirements,
    and Lis gentlemanly deportment in all the relations

    ,| Of life; but in the selection of a third member

    from the Legislative Council, while the Executive
    virtually consists of ouly seven, it must be appa-
    rent that the former body has an undue prepon-
    derance in the Adwinistration, It has been
    surmised that Dr. Johnson tas been selected to
    please the Wesleyan body: but we are inclined
    to believe that his selection was a matter of we
    cessity ou political grounds—that the Government
    could not find a more unobjectionable man any-
    where else, and particularly failed to make 4
    selection from the rauks of theiy supporters in the
    House of Assembly.
