Locking Ahead.

The batteries heaped by the Yankees upon
Prince NAPOLEON, and their foolish attempts 70
construe French polteness and courtssy into
real sympathy with them and their cause, be-
Tray anything but q thorough conviction Of
their own superior strength If they believe
themselves fully able to vanquish the South
with as great ease as they pretend, they would
scarcely be locking for "sympathy" to all
points of the compass. Sympathy is not worth
much, either among individuals or nations,
unless it shows itself in active cooperation
This the North is not likely TO secure either in
the shape of money or arms, from any nation
under the sun. 1t is pitiful to see this GoIIAH
of Gath, running hither and thither to get
some one to assist him in whipping DAVID
The South, on the other hand, expects nothing
of foreign nations but what their own interests
require. She does not ask them to fight her
battles; she has proved over and over again
that the world does not contain a superior
lighting population to her own all she asks
of the world is, "hands off and fair play
She is independent of the world for the supply
of ell her wants-a little world in herself. and
all she asks of Europe or America is to be Let
alone. Governments have no sentiments of
friendship, and it is upon no absurd ideas of
that kind that any hopes or expectations in
the South are based. She knows what the
commercial wants of Europe will require, and
has not as much reason to be solcitous for
their favor as they have for her staples.
