THE RECOGNITION OF THE SOUTH.
There has never been before such formidable

Everything indicates that they desire war with the
American Union at any price. It is possible however

The necessity of procuring cotton, even when
England cannot obtain her supply from In

England, and we will not pretend deny its gravity

The Times recently enumerated the many namiliatons
which the United States had imposed upon England.
