Advantages Of Recognition.

The Augusta Oonstituaio,mlia
presents the following views:
But what is the significance of
recognition, and what is to result
from it2 The Significance is this:
The Southern Republic is in a po-
sition to make treaties of alliance
and commerce the moment her
nationality is acknowledged and
her ambassadors received. Com
,nercial treaties viii be formed
with European powers almost 81
simultaneously with their recogni-
ton of our nationality, In the
present temper Of the Northern
people and their Government, it Is
not probable that peace can long
be maintained between them and
Foreign governments after such
treaties. We can scarcely realize
that the Yankees, in the frenzy OF
disappointed rage, will immediate
" declare war against them. But
the overwhelming conceit and ar
roeance of that people will lead
them into difficulties which no dip
lomacy can patch up. The COM
mercial complications which must
arise from the continued efforts Of
the Yankees to blockade the Sou
thern coast, will bring them into
collision with half of Europe
This condition of things will bring
them to their senses. They can
not fight the whole commercial
world. They cannot keep up the
war upon the South without be
ing involved in other wars. They
will have to follow the example OF
other nations, and recognize the
Southern Republic as. an existing
fact. Topersist in refusing, would
be to commit themselves. to per
petual war-a war objectless. 10
persist in refusing, would be to
make the Yankee nation an lsh-
maelite among the nations of the
earth-to make their country
a poverty-stricken waste, and their
commerce to disappear from every
sea.
Some of the Northern States
might continue thus blindly obstl-
nate, and rush on their ruin; but
others, less fanatical, would shrink
back from the ruinous abyss, and
create controlling peace party
