When France rose in arms to meet
the force Of thirty States, including
more than half Europe, her entire
population was only twenty-five
millions, and of these not less than
'ne-fitth were traitors, in open revolt
against the Republic. Though block

armies, she was able to arm and

armies. amounting in the aggregate
to ut least million of men. In this
tremendous conflict she was success

Tag back the tide of war on her enc
mies. most of whom saw their capitals
occupied by her triumphant armies.
The kingdoms which made war on
her contained at that period not less

Thus will it be seen that our diff

The population OF the Confederate
States is about ten million souls, our
army in the field about 100000 men.
The population Of the United States
is twenty million and their available
army 100000. If France resisted
five times her strength, is it going too
far to assume that the people Of this
'ontederacy, actuated by the same
lofty impulses, and fired with the
same ;ervid patriotism, can success
fully achieve their Independence
