SOUTHERN CANDOR.

We give below an article from the columns OF
the Religious Herald. Baptist paper Of Rich
mond, Va. Il shows 50 much more GOODNESS OF
Judgment and candor Of mind thar We are in
the habit Of finding in our Southern exchanges
tha, We deem I, worthy Of especial notice. 1t
says the South has made 1T least eight great
blunders and enumerstes them as fCllows:
1. In firing upon Fort Sumter.
2. In believing that there would be divided
North. and an apathetic Federal Government.
3. In believing that they would have the
hearty sympathies Of Europe.
4. In believing that the bonds Of their Con-
federssy would be readily taken in Europe.
S. In believing that the military power OF
the North would be directed in crusade against
slavery. rather than employed for the overthrow
Of treason. and the establishment of'the onion
and the Constitution.
8. In believing that Northern courage and
phuioss were no match for Southern; or that
in battle one Southerner equalled Ave Yankees.
7. In believing that the aag Of the cotton
oligsrchy would wave above the capitol q,
Washington. and the roll Of slaves be called on
Bunker Hill.
s. In believing that the tancied omnipotenes
Of cotton would dominate the commerce Of the
world.
A greater mistake than all was in not know
ing when they were well Of.
