The Neal Battle.
The New York Herald says of

The New York Herald says of
it:
4 terrible battle is at hand be-
the 100000 troops ON the banks of
the Potomac, III the vicinity OF
Washington-2OU 900 on either side
a battle which will be greater than
that OF Waterloo aud viii probably
be decisive against the party which
loses it. The mighty results depen-
ding on it involve the destiny OF the
people OF this continent, and perhaps
Of modern civilization. Ii there
should be a partial defeat of the Fed
eral army, let the abolition leaders
who instigated the rebellion and the
war Phillips, Garrison, Greedy, Beech
er, theever, Tappan, Jan, and their
associates, look out for another co',n-
tty as this will. be too. hot to hold
them. If there shouldbe defeat of
he'Eiederal army, together with the
capture of Washington, LET the anti
slavery demagogues who, for the
last thirty years, have been stirring
mp the embers OF strife which ended
in the Southern revolt, look out us
fast as they can for some asylum be-
You'd the limits of the American con-
rinent, for this is the only way IN
Which they con consult the safety of
i'eir imperiled necks.

A2tiNe1y E1pertmcnts.-Ihe guns
on board the steamer Gordon, lately
rihed by Messrs. Cameron & Co.,
We're tried on Saturday in the pres
ence Of large number Of military
gentlemen and civilians. The guns
were ranged at an elevation of 21
degrees, and two shots fired with six
pounds Of powder. The first dis
charge was about Is seconds, strik-
ing its Craze about two miles and a
half distant from Accommodation
wharf, s...
The second shot was, tried with
an india rubber wad, the invention
of Col. Bird. The time was twenty
two and half seconds, and the ball
was seen, with the aid of glasses, to
drop beyond Fort Sumter, distaasce
of at least four miles. 40
We learn that it is the intention of
Colonel Bird and others who witness
ed this last shot which gave great
satisfactimn to the party, to obtain
the, consent of General Ripley to
make another trial of this, aew, wad
with the guns Of fort Sumter. Ehe
first trial has certainly shown the
invention to be an effective one, and
we hope he may succeed in his ef-
forts.

Recognition by Foreign Powers.

MNs,t ,fST%A q
iWesare heartily tsickeand tired Of
the weak ness and want of self reli-ll
ance and self respect evinced in the
disposition to learn upon the recog7i
milton Of foreign powers. What is
the practical value OF such recoSn'-
ton ~, It does not amonnt to taking
sides with us against the North; 1t
will not provoke the u, States into
a war with those powers, for such
would be no casus beiii,
and, if it were, the Lincoln Govern
ment, despite the clustering talk of
the New York Herald, could not be
kicked into a war ut this time with
France or England. We ought TO
be content that the foreign powers
have declared strict neutrality be-
tween the two sections. As to Their
active aid, we either need 1t or we do
not. If we do, then ofcourse we are
unable to achieve our own lndepen-
dence, end even supposins any Eu-
ropean power willing to take up our
quarrel, We must expect to pay a
price for such assistance, which VIII
simply amount to transferring Us
from the yassalage OF one despot to
that of another. If we do not need
foreign aid-and every battle OF TINS
war proves thatwe are able to defend
|ourselves-why manifest soilcl-
tude which indicates that we dietrust
u-,, s,,a,,mth 2 A nation that
depends upon other for the means OF
achieving its independence, must
continue to depend upon them tor
the means of preserving ia most
extraordinary state Of indepence' IN
deed
We neither know nor care wheth-
er the great powers of Europe will
recognize our independence. Ii we
cannot, make it fact they viii not
help US do it; if We cam. they need
not. 1t would be far prouder re-
Election that we had achieved our own
deliverance, than that we bad to be
aided in it by England and France.
The moral influence of an unassisted
triumph upon the pride and .seli,re-
lance Of our own people, would be
incalculable. We want to be under
no obligations to Europe, to give 10
claim to our gratitude, and no war
rant or pretextof superiority to any
arrogant power or supercilious people
in the Old World. We believe that
the South is at this moment, the
most military nation in the world
not even excepting gallant and CHI
valric France ;. We believe that the
soldiers of the Southern army, led
by a Napoleon, can conquer. any
equal number of men in all Chrls'en
dom. We know that our agricultn
raj resources are inexkaustiGle, that
we can feed and c!othe ourselves
and that if the rest of the world were
sunk in the ocean to-n,Arrow, W.
should not be the worse tof 1t in any
single respect. Ii they can dc
without us, we can do far bette,
without them. We may desire THEN
friendship, we may admire thei'
prowess,, we may have close sympa
thies with those OF them whom W.
know to be generous and chivairous
but they themselves will respect III
all the more, if We show more selt-re
lance and respect for ourselves,
