From the London Times.
THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH.
There is not an EDglishman who
does not long to find in each batch
of American news some Indication OF
an end - amicable, it possible, bu'
anyhow, an end--to this horrible war
How that end ray core, people i'm
ugine for themselves. 1t may be by
a relenting of mutual animosIties, On
by an exhaustation Of men on either
side, or by bankruptcy Of means and
credit, OF by some tremendous bio"
which shall place one side at the mercy
OF the other or it may be by tie ap.
pearance of new and unexpected
perils, such rs dangerous conspiracles,
or fresh secession in another quarter;
or by the apprehensions OF interter'
once, or, in ihe quietest way OF all, by
the accession Of II new government,
more likely TO gain reputation by put
Iting an end to the war than by car
lrying /. on. As yet we can not per-
Iceive the smallest sign OF peace by
Iany OF these ways; and oven though
como OF these circumstances are mat
Ityrs of fact they have no other effect
than to increase the obstinacy OF both
antagonists. We hsvo to day, two
letters, one hom Now York and the
other from Richmond, both faithfully
representing the feelings at the spot,
and they both put off the conclusion
to an indefinite future. 1t is not that
the writers do not realiza what pas
sing, but that through confused and
sangninary for ground they show
peace r4Gyiing etill further aud further

/ But thia war, which is without any
Ieyam6fc for rosr o 'iie end treasure
during the two years it hio aG.na'y
ragged, is said to Ds ,rly the prelude
Of tho still more destructive contest
now approaching The grand armies
must now advance to conquest or
destruction; the forces on either side
must he concentrated and ma-sed for
efforts on the Napo'eonc scale moth
ing bui victory will defeat treason al
home, render conscriphon possible,
and sustain the value OF paper money;
ltaith in the Government, and faith in
cause, must be revived tany price
two years experience and more than a
hundred battles have produced sold,
Iiers who can make charge, and
Generals who can turn a position and
follow mp victory; in q word, the
United States a"c now warlike peO,
pie, who can and will fight. They
are familiar with carnage, and will
not count the cost Of victory.
The motives OF the war are now
stronger than ever. The North fights
not so much to recover the South, as
to retain the North west and border
States. 1t fights against that tire.
mendous reputation which is to
throw all the costs and all the future
NJ
consequences Of the war on New
York and the great cities. 1t fights
to rid tself OF the enormous obliga
ton it has contracted on behalf o
the A lrican. 1t fights to sustain it
credit with the immigrants Of the O!d
World, whom It has invited 10 do the
work and divide the spoil. Succeed
| it never can, but to confess as much
is something impossible tothe Ameri
can nature. 1t has yet to learn tha'
lesson. But the lesson 80 abhorrent
to all it's feeling and habits, will be in
itself the hardest ever thurst on are
pugnant pupil. The Northern States
\ will one day have to sign renuncl
alton which will be only the begin
ming of dismemberment and ruin.
This is the horror they fly from
though the further they fly the more
surely DO they entail it. Like him
who will not turn round 20 see, be.
cause, having once done 80, his eye
eau lht that which he wished not to
see again, they refuse to face the ca
Iamity which they know TO be ap
proachins. Neither statesmen nor
soldiers know how to deal with it
rot even Statesmen Of the Stanton
class or soldiers like Hooker.
Both sides in this extremity look to
