F0REItaN SENTIMENT.
Ono lof the strongest articles we have seen, from
The transatiantio press, taking the side Of the
South IN the present war, appears in Scotch
paper, the Ayr Advertiser, of the a2d Of August.
Take, for Instance, the following emphatic de.
elaraticn ia regard to the blockade of the South.
ern portss =
10 deelare more than two.thirds of the whole
American coast in state of blockade is a high
handed jnsolence . wanton cruelty, more betting
barharous savages than Christian statesmen. 1t is
cruelty to which Mr. Lincoln cannot expect that
Esrops win submit for any length of time.
Purspingis It's observations en- this point, the Ad-
Sertissr remarks: z@2al 5a@ s97s'5 - 3T
Afar Is war, snd brave and humane warrior

nor qis it q legitimate method of carrying on war
and distressing an enemy and cruel man Is
always hated, and cruel poiicyis always exc
Grated. In the interests of humanity, of wives,
mothers, children, brothers, sisters, we wish well
tossny private ship that can epa9s the blockade :;
any cofsair or prirateer that can brdue it: any
squadron, be it French or English, or both com-
biaed that will gallantiy and resolutely bredkit-

bully and coward are two names for the sameRen
two aspects of the same character. The bully IS
coward and the coward aisgenerally bniy; and
cruelty to women and children, and peaceful and
unoffending persons generally, is the SEED gthat
germinates Sometimes, aas in the American VI

Here is what is said Of the unfriendly attitude Of
tile North towards England sand France, as shown
by the blockade: - ley
But " blpekading two-th4sds of the coast is cruel
and unfeeling toward all who have relatives in or
relations with America, it isa most unfriendiy act
in; especial TO two friendly powers, viz: England
and France. sSt is no secret no supmse, no infer
ence. butaas broad, patent and undeniable fact, a
matter known to the whole world that both France
and England depend for their supply ofraw cetton
on the very cogntry whose esast is declared to be
in d state Of Hloekade. F
In the following paragraph the Advertiser open
Iy declares that another defeat of the North Nike
that sat Manassas would settle the question, and
give England and France ar, opportunity which
they would eagerly embrace. This same hint has
been thrown out by more than one organ of for
teign sentiment; and if such results would follow
from another victory, it seems to us that sucha
victory should be secured for the Confederate arms
as soon as possible. 1t is clearly within power
to gain it.
4 1t is o very; different thing to blockade few
sent, and abounding with inlets and outlets. We
should do nothing but in concert with Louis Ma
poleon to whose subjects raw cotton, of the finest
quality Is as neediul as to the subjects Of the
queen. TIE dtaUe no doubt thGf t5oh oatr august

Finally, the Advertiser intimatss that six months
of the blockade is enough, and that # there is no
relief then, it will be the duty OF England and
Francs TO ointerfere. This is its Language: nd
The new war duties on wines and silks, SO and
40 per Cent. respectively, dd rdtoren1 are evident
" meSat to exclude French traders altogether
from the American market. The language of both
GovernHlents to Mr. Lincoln will be, we hope en-
ergetit. I" Your quarrel is a domestic one; we
have no wish to Interfere either the side or
the ether. But we cannet permit your domestic
quarrel to injure the operatives and capitalists of
France and England. What time do you require? W,
e Six months" Well at the close of six months,
whether yoar quarrel is soldered up or not this
blockade Must terminate

ard has an understanding with foreign Govern
ments to the effect that the latter will not inter
fere for a given length Of time-it may be six
months or more. These Governments are to wait
until that time expires Then, if the North has
not suppressed the rebellion, they are to be under
no obligation to hold off. This is mere suspicion,
bnt it is not Improbable. England, we think, is
siFeady satisfied that the South cannot be sahdued,
but il tbound to wait certain period of time be
ions she can officially take notice of the fact.

y sst4t fs@ TALK ON ,oHANGE.4 H=i,
There were gatherings en- the flags Of Carondelet
yesterday. True. they did not exceed corporals
,uard, but it ID with profound feelings of sorrow
to record that the prestige of Caror-
Ielet etBset is one of the things that5were We
llude to itin the real sense Of the word. No cot
on on the market; consequently, no exchange
aaking Irue, there ara orders for cotton for the
pahish market, ranging up to liz to I2 cents for
Iiddling. Ge cotton is rot in market but it is on
and when Isabella the Second reeog-
ICES the southern Confedefacy politically, as we'll
s commercially, she may receive the hundred
lousand bales wanted from New Orleans. This is
lie general talk; but there ID a great of side
