We now know the reason of the long

is one that can be announced with lively
satisfaction. Corinth was only camp,

the great heats Of summer is gained. -

IMPORTANCE OF RECOGNITION ny FOREIGN
POWERS.
From the Richmond Enquirer, June
Immediately upon the hcelg Of the Ro-
anoke and DoneEon disasters it became
exceedingly popular to divert attention
from every other channel and concentrate
II upon the one all.qbsorbing topic OF re
lance upon ourselves alone. But the truth
was our great fault had been not in look-
ing abroad for aid, or in dependence upon
others, but in too great confidence in our
selves We held ourselves invincible. i
Roanoke and Donelson awoke us from the
delusion. These sweet lessons of adversis
ty have not been lost upon us. Driven
back at one point, we now gain a another,
and demonstrate that, when properly
aroused, we are unconquerable-that the
wor may rage with various fortunes for
twenty years, and the aim of sdbjugation
il1 9e as lar from accomplishment as ever.

seems, will not desist. Yet, if the war is
to terminate at al without foreign inter,
vention, it must be by change of North
