The Tariff RIM.

Inc W Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia North Aaertcdn refers to an official
ihtlmatton that the British and French Gov
ernmentS will recognize the new Southern
Coniedcfacy as de.fdcto Government. The
statement, he says, is made upon such author
ity and under such circumstances AS to enti
tie 1t 70 more consequence than an ordinary
rnInor This argument has been used with
elect in some quarters, and, taken in connec-
ton with the well known efforts of nearly all
the Foreign Ministers against the proposed Ia
riff change, entities it to be regarded seriously.
Nevertheless the writer insists upon il that the
new tarig should pass, and declares that If the
weight OF any great foreign Government is to
be thrown into the scale against the North and
encouragement thus given TO secession, there
is an additional and stronger reason for ma
turing a system of policy that will afford the
encouragement and protection which are so
much needed.

The " Washington Contederacy," of Mon
day, referring 10 q rumor that CHASE of Ohio
has been selected by Mr.. LINCOLN as his Pre-
mier, instead OF SEWARD, says " as much as
we Getest abolitionism, prefer WIN II Sc
