HOPE AND DESPAIR.
The Richmond Sentinel finds out that in esi-
mating the prospects Of the present war The In
euirer "appesls only 10 Fear hay, that 1t meul-
cafes even "Despair." The Sesiael, for its part
"gives precedence TO Hope and. to reason us ont
OF our dark Visions kindly disCourses to us OF the
blessed and salutary nature of Hope that anchor OF
the SOUL interspersing Its lecture with pleasing goo
tasons from the BStsh poets IN praise OF the Virtue
and excellenCy Of Hope.
1t seems that we have repeatedly urged in The
Enquirer that the Coniederates would 30 iladvised
TO repose any hope upon the friepdship Of foreign
powers, "peace parties at the North or the negro
imbrOgo" whatever that means, which The SEM
fHel declares 10 be III Itself quite sufficient TO put
eDu 10 Tue war. W non me newspapers around uS
are eXultiDg III the SPECULATION that the Western
Powers of Europe viii certainly never permit the
Reconstruction OF the Union and that they must soon
interpose 10 prevent that contamination, we have
vrnlured to hint that on the contrary, they are
il y 10 cornt most confidently on the permauency
o. oar Sc ration from the Yankee States without
any Intervention Of theirs, intervene for such
pIrpose, IL would and that II they would
be only when their action could be Of no use IN
establishing our independence, and would only give
III enc MASTER or set OF master instead OF another
In short, we have urged that all the hope we
have lies in our own exertions, IN our own deter
mined resistance; and that all the friendship and
Nmpathy we can expect from the outside world IN
Gle future as has been the 10 the past, Is con.
6ngent upon our proved ability TO win and establish
our freedom by our own arms. Therefore we have
been desirous Of discrediting and oscarding those
hopes from outside; that our people may feel the
eeesity Of nerving themselves for the great strug
sle which vet hes before them.
This is what The SeHtine! calls fear and despair.
Fiat Journal says:
Soch We believe the tendency Of The Enquire, dark
pictures. We have had persons that II they be-
eved in their correctness they woad feel it to DO folly 20
continue tie Struggle"
The Sentinel, for ts own part, sees no hope at ALL
gave III the negro imbroghos, which are to convulse
the North and in the supposed interests OF certain
foreign Powers which TO impel them 20 saye the
Confeieracy from destruction. Ii these hopes fail
us then The Sentinel 'hss had persons TO say
they would feel it to be folly to resist the invaders
Of their homes any longer
We have no objection TO the negro imbroglios
whatever they may amount to-. We hail the
Eew-YOrk riots and tbs "C0pperhead' opposition
70 the draft and il France should recognize as and
open cur blockade should be well pleased; but
al these things contingent, speculative, uncer-
tain, and dubions and If any good is 10 come out Of
them 10 our cause, we mus stll! owe that benefit,
and the whole Of that benefit, 70 the achievements
Of our army and navy. IL these, after ell, is our
only hope.
This seems TO be Gen. Lees opinion, too, when
be calls 30 earnestly FOR the presence OF all his
forces. Apparently he thinks that our fate depends
entirely on events that to befall newhere on
the lin, of the Rappahaunock, and not III the IuiI-
cries or In Washington, or Ola the stiootn vi how
York. Gen. Lee, therefore, yields, We suppose, to
Fear, and is Overwhelmed by Despair. Tie Presi-
dent also so fsr gives away to ms terror, and ii
such prophet Of Despair that IN his address TO The
soldiers yesterday be draws this dark picture:
The victory within your reach fou reed but stretch
forth your grssP H. for this 81 inst u necessary II
that those who called to the hed By every motive that
can human heart should promptly repair 70 The
post Of duty hoVd stand BY their coade' now In font OF
the foe and 'hrs 90 strengthen the armies Of tie
rs insure success"
Why does not the President tell US To have hope
in the CoppeTheads and negro lmbTOglios whatever
they may bel, 10 have hope In the Emperor Of the
French or in the Queen Of Spain If he has no
better hopes TO hold out 10 us than the strengthening
OF our armies there are men who viii come into
The Sentinel Office aud say we may as well give up
the struggle.
Now, We DO think that much mischief has been
done by the silly speculatons concerning the imsgi
nary interest Of foreigners 10 interfere for ben
eft They have been rite ever siace tie first day OF
Secession.
They have kept Us in cringing attitude continu-
ally toward ali the outside world; they have made
Our foreign policy Tor pretense Of foreign policy
ludicrous and mean 10 the last degree; they have
helped 70 retard our regular admission into the
family Of nations; and they have eDervsted the
public spirit Of our people by constant alterations
OF false hope and stupid disappointment.

we insist on telling the naked TRUTH and the naked
truth Is, ths. the Confederacy have hope in the
world save the prowess Of its own soldiers II
this DO fear and despair, make the most Of it.
JEFF. DAiIs's APPEAL.
Tie Richmond Enquirer, in leading article on
JEFF. Daviss Proclamation, closes a. follows:
VIII 10, the women help US, them 10 put every
man in his plscel VIII they not refuse 90 much as
70 speak 10 any who evades bis duty7 We all
know that they by combining together, can drive
ell srrsgglers al 10 the field; they can M Ike
existence ntelerabe r. those who stay; but 20 those
who 20 and do the de00tro gallant gentlemen they
can promise paradise. and keep their word. Now
bere Is what women can 10 for us at the MOmeut-
for Us for themselves and for ~ all
Let them bat think that everything we ere or
have, or hope 70 have or 10 he, depends upon our
GLORIOUS army, aud that It " now standing in the gan
Of the Confederacy more with enormous rnasse.
