rORRlGN RELATIONS.

The recommendations Of the pro-slaV-
cry English Journals, in relation to Amer
ican affairs, prove nothing, one way or the
other, concerning the intentions Of the
British Government; but, to certain e2-
tent, they shadow forth the opinions and
hopes Of the classes for whom they are
printed; hence, in tho multitude Of voices
which reach us from the other side Of the
ocean, all avowing the necessity Of break
ing Our blockade and releasing the cotton
Of the Southern ports, that English manu-
facturers may go on, We have perhaps a
premonition Of what, by and by, the
Crown and Parliament will be forced to
do. Recognition Of the so-called South.
ern Confederacy, if foreign sympathy goes
10 further, will be bagatele; but it is
not likely that either the great powers will
choose to offend the Republic without
proceeding step further Than barely com.
plimenting the rebels; hence we fear that
recognition would be followed by the
breaking Of our blockade. Then the ques,
ton would become one Of great magni
tude, ,and we should be called upon mol
merely to protest but to act. We shall
see what will be done; but Tor the present
We content ourselves with the belle
that the rulers Of England are not de-
mented.

For this army there are four Major
Generals-Banks, Dix, Butler and Hunter.
There are also eighty Brigadie1s, regularly

We count them) some thirty Colonels who
are acting as Brigadiers, several Of whom
