The south and Ensl.na.

The letter Of Mr.. RUSSELL to the London
Times, which is such q monstrous earicature
Of the battle of Manassas Plains. mead not
much astonish the public. He tells us that he
saw men run from that battle whom it were a
disgrace to the noble profession of arms to
call soldier. We have no doubt of il; bat if
they had run even faster than himself, thsy
cosld not more disgrace the profession of arms
tnan ne, and others like him, the profession of
journalism. We have often, in times gone by,
aomonished our readers that they ought not
to receive with implicit confidence the stats-
ments Of European affairs By the Times cor
respondents. They write, as an attorney
pleads, for the side on which they are en-
pioyed' without regard to truth or justice. It
Is iamentaoie that such powerful engine as
the London Tinses should be engaged in fab
ricating falsehoods, and misleading and de-
iudlng the public mind; but that such is the
'ac', no American, at least, can doubt, after
reading the last letter of Mr.. RUSSELL and the
accompanying comments of the Times. The
impression which the whole foreign world will
derive from that letter is, that the battle of
Manassas was regular Chinese engagement
on both sides, and that the Americans of both
sections are little better than Chinese.
Such caricature is simply the product of
an old grudge against America, for that the
Times cares groat for either party in the
quarrel, is simple absurdity. Cotton is q
necessity on one side, and Exeter Hall ia
power in the State on the other; and Mr..
RUSSELL seems to be balancing his attention
between the two, like the ass between two bun
dies OF hay. If Great Britain can hesitate in
her choice between fanaticism and cotton. Mr.
RUSSELL is less Of an ass than NO SUPPOSE
we DO not believe she can hesitate long: wa
know che must bow the knee to cotton in the
end; and if Mr. RUSSELL, especially after the
rout at Manassas, can be induced By SEWARD
and Scorr to believe that 1ngland can get the
cotton without the consent of the South. he is
not the man whom the Times should send TO
America at such crisis, if it has much re-
gard for the interests of its own people.
The South is master of the situation, both
as regards England and the North. 1t does
not expect the sympathy of England-her in
forests, and these alone, must determine her
course. We understand the power of fanati-
clsm in Great Britain, and do not undsrrate
the violence and venom of Exeter Hall. But
the characteristic common sense of the Eng
iish nation never fails to assert its ascsndancy
in all matters which concern pounds, shillings
and pence. The instinct of manufacturing
and commercial self-preservation lies deeper in
the English mind than the morbid philan-
thropy Of abolitionism. We care not for the
Misrepresentation of RUSSELL, or any other
hireling emissary of the London Times. We
nave the cotton, and it shall be burned, every
bale Of it, before England shall have it in any
other way and manner than that prescribed by
the Confederate Government.

Many in the South desire long war. They
will hardly be gratifed by tho Yankees, who
do not desire any prolongation of a condition
of things so disastrous to trade as the war.
The South cannot suffer a tithe as much as
the North from long war; on the contrary,
such war will benefit her interest in many
respects. They may be enumerated as fol-
