THR POSITION OF FRANCE


The article in the Paris Aa.rfe and M0n-
f{cur, concerning the future recognition Of
the Southern States, which has set SO many
people agog, tuns out to be very harm
less paragraph after all It is in the fol-
lowing words:
"ffznce, by her new attitude, would not pretend
to 1nterfeIe in any pa2azer in the internal exser
nal afa1rs of the Italian kingdom, which remains
sole Judge Of It's conuct It Is MASTER OF fts fu
tu1e and OF its destinies. It would act towards 1t
as one ;dxy the great European powers will act in
The American question, by recognizing the new re-
putlic of the Southern States .cA<n that rypu6;to
uiA acse International relations to b entestain<d
1eiM II Of a1santagt to general inter<sts.''
BY no Eort of construction can this be
understood as implying more than that
France will recognize JEFF. Davis's govern
ment, arEen it is Us firmly established as the
1cw Kingdom Of Italy. The condition to
bc reached before tile recognition of France
can be expected is tolerably well defined
in tie Iat,4e itself viz: "When that re-
t'public shall have constituted govern
"ment on basis which will allow inter
'naionai relations to be entertained with
81 It Of advantage to general interests"
There is no other significance is to be
attached TO the announcement than the
tft repeated and universally conceded
principle that dc jaeto governments
must be recognized when their existence
as established, governments becomes plain
and undeniab1e. There surely needs no
ghost come from the grave to tell us this.
When the. JEFF. Davis Confederacy be-
comes an established fact upon the Amer
ican continent, whether in fifteen states,
CT eleven states, or one state, or q single
square inch Of soil, the government of the
United States will not wait to see it rccoe-
MED by FraEce, but will render it due obei-
sAnce without consulting any European
.'ower. When the rebellion shall have as
s. rted Its power-when it shall hare ex-
p Led tue armies Of the United States from
liz stnlcu domain-When it shall have
1esched the firm consistency and undis-
luted sway which mark the reign Of Vic
tar Fmanucl in the new Kingdom Of Italy,
Tie President Of the United States will ra-
tslye its minister, and make treaty with
its Chief Magistrate, be he President, DC
t":or, Tycoon or Great Mogul. Until then
F~ztcolumns move on.

On Friday hewent over to Marion from Car

that be wanted nothing to do with him, and

We learn from q source not likely to be
in error, that the delay in army move
ments at Washington is attributable almost
solely to lack Of means oftransportation
horses, mules, and especially wagons.
Why have not these indispensable ad-
juncts Of u campaign been provided ? TAe
answer is that they could not be soonet
obtained. We are told that every wagon
factory between Maryland and Maine has
been enp1oye by the Government in turn
ing out vehicles foz carrying ammunition
tents, provisions, forage, and camp equip
age, An army Of one hundred Thousand
men requires fet Hundred wagons to trans
port its provisions alone over an enenay's
country. The ammunition iorsuch q force
requires an enormous train Of horses aud
wheeled vehicles. To move forward With:
cut these appliances would be the height
Ct folly. The Virginia railroads will be
destroyed as the rebels retreat, and it is to
lie presumed that they will devastatc the
country. Of everything constituting food
1or man or beast-thus rendering it neces-
ss1y 10 carry all the provisions and forage
tor the grand army, by sheer horse power,
f:om Washington -.
We presume that this is the TIRE Cause
Of the delay, rather than any lack of
disposition to move forward and crush
out the rebellion before the rebel Congress
meets 1T Richmond. =
