Mr.. Spencer, the Liverpool correspOn-
dent OF the London Times, has another
letter in that journal, complimenting the
%bo~ st A.
skill shown by its Generals in Maryland.
He says the North is now in a position to D
make peace without dishonor, but that the
golden opportunity will be lost, and it
adds: "As the North cannot be the first
to acknowledge the independence of the
Confederacy, Europe should remove the
stumbling block by recognizing the Con-
federate States, and the North may then
follow its example,"
The New York correspondent of the
London Times, writing: "It is evident
that the decisive battle has not yet been
fought. All that has happened is but pre-
Eminary to the final onslaught that is to
make or mar Mcclellan. But that on
slaught, and how it will end, is not likely
to, make or mar the fortunes of the Con-
federates." He adds that the resignation
or abdcation of President Lincoln is de-
bated as matter of course.
The Army and Many Gazette says -
''The South has tried the offensive and
failed. The Confederate army has shown
great daring and much tenacity, but has
been beaten. General Mcclellan has
shown that, as a soldier, he is equal to
General Lee or Stonewall jackson. The
division of the Confederate forces was a
great mistake, but great Generals would
have known how to convert that mistake
into disastrous defeat, while secOnd-rate
soldiers, like Mcclellan, could only get out
with respectable success s
The expectation of arms and ammuni-
ton from England to America is rapidly
progressing. The shipments of the first
eight months of the year are valued at
9l, 100000. qo esa 9Aa -oi6
The Paris Patrie hears from good sour /.
ces that nothing is more likely than the ..
recognition of the South, on the basis of
accomplished facts very soon to be on the
tapis, England and France acting in con-
cert.
The Paris BOMTSe was much excited on
the Sd, and rents advanced nearly per
cent, closing at -. It is supposed the
advance was caused by rumor that the
Papal government had shownsa more pill a
ant disposition. .-,,ylsi
