Neither the Confederate States nor its individual
members can have any credit abroad, and every dol
lar Of available means In the hands Of is people NJ
home must be exhausted in q very brief time. Il Is
a terrible reflection IN times like these taat the wealth
Of the seeding States consists chiefly Of lands and
negroes. and war renders both these species OF pro-
perty almost yaiueless, while they are entirely 50 Tor
war purposes. The dis!0yal States can get no money
except by spoliation, which viii soon exhaust itself.
Again, the loyal States have an immense a vantage
in the fact that they hold the commerce and com
maut the sea, 50 that the Confederate States are
quite az their mercy in their numerous vulnerable
points OF attack upon the coast. They need 10000
men "a a defense against 10000 on board a we lap
pointed fleet. One day this force could threaten Nor
folk. the next Wilmington. the next Charleston. the
next Savannah; then Florida, Mobile. New Orleans
and Galveston. No one could tell where the blow
was to be struck. and consequently every meuaced
point would have 10 he well guarded. Such a fleet
and force could in six months put the whole South in
a perfect frenzy, by constantly lowering upon their
coast with hostile demonstrations. And YET, with the
mercantile marine OF New York and Boston at their
disposal Government could p-eciritate 100, COO men
upon any required point. : dozen points could be
threatened ~ the same moment, and having thus the
command Of the sea in the hands Of the North, the
South, having no navy, nor ships, nor sailors, could
not defend themselves with even ten times their pre-
sent number. They have more than 5000 miles Of
frontier line 20 protect; what folly then 10 talk Of in
yading the North. Would TO Heaven that wise coun-
sells might stay the mad passions Of the rebel cOnsDi-
ra;orS, and avert them from the destruction towards
whose brink they rush. There Is one door Of escape
