The Times ridicules the Mayor for bringing
Mr.. Mason into prominence at the Mansion

Recognition is question of time, not of mi
nority or majority, t of real existing facts.
When the Federals find themselves obliged to
leave the Confederates in quiet possession of
their States it will be time to discuss the ques-
ton Of recognition, but not until then.
AS 1t is, Mason has received no assistance
