FOREIGN NEWS.

FARTHER PoINT, Sept. "a.
The Times says: never, since the wal
began, has there been such display O
vigor and energy on both sides. Battle
succeeds battle with frightful rapidity
The conflicts are long and bloody the vic
tories triaing and indeeisive. The most
important part of the news relates to the
Chicago Convention. Lincoln and
his policy have received a heavy
check by that Convention choosing
Mcclellan, the man whom Lincoln en-
deavored to keep down. The most able to
repeat his orders and arrest the ruin plain
ly impending over the grest republic. It
will be observed that the Convention speaks
of the preservation of the Union as the
principal object; but this declaration would
have had more weight if the convention
had stated what course it would pursue in
case of Cancellation and compromise, which
it advises, should fail in effecting, as as
suredly they will, the reconstruction of the
Union.
The Star thinks the Federal successes at
Atlanta and Mobile will powerfully stim-
ulate the war feeling in the North, and in
ssmuch as they bear very hardly on the
South, it is possible that the Southern
leaders may be more inclined to listen TO
compromise before their military strength
Is entirely broken In this view, they
would be more reconciled to treat with
Mcclellan than with Lincoln; but the i
Northern people will see less cause for the
change when Lincoln's administration
brings success.
The Daily Nesos says: In the presence
Of the great movements in the field the |
the proceedings of the Chicago Convention
are of less importance than they other |
wise might be. MeClellan's platform is |
friendly to the Union, with Efforts for its |
pacific re-establishment. In point of f. |
deity the Democrats can compare with |
the Republicans, but nothing could be /
weaker than wailings after peace on |
a basis which the South has repeatedly de-
clared it will never, under any circum-
stance, recognize.

The cotton crisis is well nigh passed, and |
