Lincoln the South is successful 1t saws that onl
a victory by which the stain of Manassas NAV he
enaced, and the South induced to come to terms
can secure the President from the copsenuapnss of

The London Globe observes with regard to the
blockade question, that blockade is a rIgbt of

can congress empower the Executive to desist from
the Dl ckede, and substitute the leyyinp of official
duties goods about to be landed in territories
where that Executive afford no protection to

The Shipping Gazette complains that the blockad-
ing squsdron the coast Of America apnears de-
termIned to interrupt marine commerce in defiance
OF the best understood maxims of international
law, and at the risk of a collision with the forces
OF the maritime powers.
The London Post, in an editorial on the blockade
question, says, II unfortunately, Englapd should be
compelled into quarrel, the blame will not rest
with England, but with the Government which has
endeavored TO effect the ruin of innocent commerce
to enforce the validity of a blockade which it is
mamiiesr.y incompetent to maintain.
