Advantages of q Recognition

The Augusta Oonstitutionast presents the following
views:
But what is the significance Of recognition, and what
result from i'll The significance is this The South
Republic Is In position to make treaties Of alliance
and commerce the moment her nationality Ia acknowl
edged and her ambassadors received Commercial
ties will be formed with European powers almost stimuli
taueously with their recognition Of nationality. In
the present temper Of Northern people and their Coy
ernment it is not prob ,ble that peace long be main
tanned between them and foreign governments after such
treaties. We scarcely realize that the Yankees, in
the frenzy of disappointed rage will Immediately declare
war ayans. them. But the overwhelming conceit and
arrogance Of that people win lead them into difficulties
which no diplomacy can patch up. The commercial
complications which must arise from the continued efforts
Of the Yankees to blockade the Southern coast will
brig them into collision with half of Europe This
condition Of things will bring them TO their ssnses They
cannot fight the whole commercial world Taey cannot
keep up the upon the South without being involved
10 other wars. They will have to follow the Inevitable
Of other nations and recognize the Southern Re-
public existing fact To persist in refusing woud be
to comm. themselves to perpetual war-s bsctes,
and hopeless To persist in rafusng would be to make
the Yankee nation Ishmaeite among tie nations Of
the earth-to make their country poverty stricken
waste and their commerce to disappear from every sea-
S,ne Of the Northern States might continue thus
bAndy obstinate and rush to their ruiz but Others
loss fanatea would shrink back from the ruinous abyss
and create 4 controlling peace party.
