By the Persia We have the following adaltona
foreign news:

THE AMERICAN WAR
The London papers continue to discuss the \ .ner
lean war The Times, editorially, says:
The kilograms by the Persia. if they come sub
stantialiy from the National Government, do cTedi,
to It's yeraci!y inaslnuth they proclaim thlt any
decisive advantage over the Confederates must be
postponed until great additions ara made To tht
Federal army.
The latest dates are to June 18th, which may be
considered the beginning of the summer heats. al
though the probability is that botn armies will keep
the field, vet there can be little doubt that the
spirit of the campaign mast languisii until fall
when cool weather and reinforcementS on botli
sides will allow the struggle to be renewed.
The last news represents what may be looked
upon as the closing scenes OF the spring campaign.
Though the FeGcrals have 20 many more men, and
such q vast army and the greatest resources, they
invariably describe themselves outnuiabered by
the Confsderates Haiieck and Mcclellan utter the
same complaint. Food and powder must have been
the cry OF the Confederate force which numbered
1870 900 at Corinth and being equal if not superior
to the forces opposed 10 it, yet Obliged TO re
treat southwark, and is now posted in decrease
numbers at Grenada
Keutuckians and Tennesseeans might argue that
since their own States have been abandoned and
fallen under the yoke of the Federals they had no
further interest in defending the cotton States
which they were bound by ties Of allegiance but the
diminishing army must have been mainly caused
by the difficulty of procuring food The Times
adds "The superior numbers aud resources of the
North we look upon az certain IN the ehd to pre-
vail
"But who can see the resolution eyinced by the
South, the immense army it puts in the field and
the tenacity with which it disputes every position,
withou, feeling that the war is likely to drench the
territory OF the Union with much more bloodf IL
winds up by hoping some means may be devised
for bringing this unnatural conflict 10 close.
The Morata9 Herald, in an EDITORIAL contends
that the restoration Of the Union would be q ea-
iamity not only for Europe, and England in par
tieular, but for the North. 1t declares that the
Union had become nuisance among nations. Be-
cession il favorable TO England selfinterest would
have justified Interference before this had not in
ternational neutrality forbid IL.
Even now, II there was any hope Of an ear.
" settlement no one would dream about in
terfering. As matters stand, however, the Hercld
thinks II Ia time that decided action should be
taken by France and England in behalf of justice
and humanity, well for the protection Of their
haifruined manufactures and hungry operatives.
Such action must bc taken al last, impossible
things cannot be long allowed to remain II IL
now improbable that there will be say change In
the aspect Of American affairs that will bring >us
relief and We are 10 act after ALL u will be
saving needless misery to act ~ once with gentle
ness aud eourtssy but with iin,novabie 6rmnsss In
words.
