THINKING that it would be of interest to
our readers to know what at least one of
the leading English papers thinks of the
Southern Confederacy, we publish the fol-
lowing extracts from the London Star of
August 9th:
.EThe cause of the Southern Confederacy
10 past help, past hope. The most infatu
ated, the most interested partisan of that
cause in England can no longer close his
eyes to the impending ruin. We need no
coniectures, no spe,ulations, no COMPARE
sons of our own to prove the fact. 1t is
proved, it is acknowledged in every line
which has reached us, telegraphed from the
columns Of Southern newspapers The
Southern journals do not affect to be under
any dolusion. They do not attempt to
keen up the deception which was maintained
in England until it fairly collapsed under
the pressure Of overwhelming facts. From
Richmond, from Montgomery, from Mobile,
we hear the same story. The confederacy
is playing ito last desperate game, The

TUESDAY MORNING., August IS, 1868.
The News.

The forts In Charleston harbor are, con-
trary to the prophecies of newspaper COR
respondents, still in the possession Of the
rebels, and while their capture. together
with Charleston, is only q question of time,
vet it is work Of great magnitude, and
requires n CAST amount Of labor and conse-
aueatly time to accomplish il. So it was
with Vicksburg, No. general assault has
yet been made, but Fort Sumter has been
preached by our 200-pound Parrot guns
while trying the strength of the powder to
be used in them. II stated that Wagner
has been pounded 50 much by our shot and
shell that it looks more like large heap OF
earth than strong fort. Rebel papers
throughout the Confederacy already begin
to wall over the sad effects of the loss of
Charleston.
A rebel guerilla force Of about eight
hundred men, crossed into Kansas from
Missouri on the night of the Goth instant,
and having arrived at Lawrence city next
morning, commenced robbipg the stores,
shooting citizens and burning the houses.
II il supposed that the entire city has thus
been destroyed. The Mayor OF Leaven-
worth has issued proclamation calling on
aIl able-bodied citizens to arm themselves
for defence, or to aid friends in other por-
tons Of the State
It is reported that the army of the Cum
berland is again in motion, supposed for
operations in East Tennessee.
There is nothing important from Vicks-
burg or Port Hudson, and things remain
In stata quo.
The army of the Potomac occupies the
same position that it did week ago. The
old regiments are being rapidly filled up
by the addition of consoripts, large numbers
Of whom arrive daily.
Another very successful raid has been
made into North Carolina, accomplishing
all its was designed to.
The latest Mexican advices state that the
French and Mexican journals. published in
the Mexican capital. are warmly advocating
the recognition of the rebel confederacy by
Mexico.

We learn that three of the rebel pris-
oners at this place effected their escape one
night last week by means of the water
that side of the camp not being guarded !;
it is Supposed they managed to eludo the
other guards by wading or swimming past
them. This however has been remedied,
and it will now be found next to impossible
for similar occurrence to transpire. They
will not lack for aid and comfort from many
of the citizens above here we think,

Southern organs do not, indeed, acknowl-
edge total failure and cry out for peace but,
they speak in tones which only tell Of dis"
aster and defeat irretrevablc,
Peculiarly significant are the utteranocs
of the Noble Adresfiser, It Ia too soon,
says this journal, To talk Of Submission yet
The Southern cause dnes not look dark
enough yet to justify those who are ready
to submit and arc anxious for peace" There
are then such, after all, even among the
indousitable, the irresistible Oonfederates,
oyer whose supreme success some London
journals were shrieking with exultation
only few weeks back. And all the an
swer which the Mobile paper can make to
those who talk Of submission is, that the
cause is not quite dark enough yet to ips=
tify surrender. Truly a pittiful rallying
cry, not likely to inspire the hearers with
much fresh enthusiasm. Gold, too, is the
consolation which the same journal finds
for the fall of Vicksbarg Had Vicksburg
not surrendered just when it did, Johnston
would have marched upon Grants intrench-
mcnts, and must infallibly have been cut
to pieces.
They used to love to read the brilliant
accounts of ''StonewalP' Jackson's daring
swoops and of Lees successes, and they ex-
ulted, no doubt, over the impregnability> Of
yicksburg, and possibly rubbed their hands
over the expectation of a captured Wash
ington But these golden dreams are gone,
gone and the cold, uncomfortable, ugly
reality succeeds; and they see only ruin
before them. and they will not fight =
Therefore, the Richmond Enquirer urges
that clean sweep should be made, and
that all the recreants should be driven to
the war. Should even this fail, as the En-
quirer seems to fear it will-should the
armies of the South be ''disintegrated"-
should the government have no spot to rest
ON and be forced to become ''itinerant' .
these are the words of the Southern journal,
not ours-why, then, what chance do our
readers suppose will remain? A guerilla
warfare can be kept up on the sea
We leave ungrudgingly to the Southern
partisans all the scraps Of comfort they
can manage to extract from the late news.
The rays of hope will be little clearer than
the sunbeams which the Laputan philosopher
professed to draw from his cucumbers.-
We read what the Southern journals say,
and we learn there that even if the South
does not yield, it no longer hopes to win !;
that even if it still de6es, it likewise des-
pairs"

THERE are now at this place between
eighteen and nineteen hundred rebel pris-
oners> These men are furnished with tents
to shelAer them, and plenty of good whole
some food to sustain them, while those Of
our soldiers who have fallen into the hands
of the rebels generally have nothing but the
panoply Of heaven to protect them from the
storm. and but scanty allownce of bad
bread and spoiled meat, besides being rob-
bed of all they may have in their possession
when captured This striking contrast
should not be- IF the rebel government
are unable to supply their prisoners with
shelter and plenty Of wholesome food, and
we believe they are unable, it should at
least be required of them to respect the
personal rights of our soldiers who may be
so unfortunate as to fall into their hands
