| Mr. Spencer, the Liverpool CORES
pondent of the London Times has anoth-
er letter in that paper complimenting
| the north on the yalor of Its armies and
! the skill shown by its generals in Mary
land. He says the north is now in sit
uation to make peace without dishonor,
but that the golden opportunity will be
lost, and adds as the north cannot be the
lst to acknowledge the independence of
the Confederates. Europe should remove
the stumbling block by recognizing the
/ Confederate States, and the North may
follow their example s. Is & s. d
l. A correspondent of the London Times
of September 18th says it is evident that
the decisive battle of the war has not yet
been found Allthat has happened is
but the preliminary to the nalonslaught
that is to make or mar Mcclellan, but
that onslaught, however. it may end, is
not likely to make or mar the fortunes of
the Confederates. He adds that the
resignation OF Abraham Lincoln is de-
bated as matter of course.

South has tried the offensive and failed
The Confederate army has showed great
daring and much tenacity, but has been
beaten. General Mcclellan has shown
that as soldier he is equal to Lee or
Jackson. -vewe5
The division of the Confederate forces
was great mistake, but great Generals
| would have known how to convert that
| mistake into a disastrous defeat, while
a second rate soldier like Mcclellan
could get out with respectable success.
| The expectation of arms and ammuni-
ton from England to America is rapidly
increasing. -ss-i+1

The Peris Patrie hears from good
sources 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 concert. s0ff438Vs e2o& 8 : s4s1 Z
