Foreign Protection.

The more the rebels examine the ques-
ton Of seeking foreign protection the
less promising it appears, Some Of
them argue that the very appeal to Eng
land and France for aid, with the pro-
posal to abolish slavery for the purpose
Of securing it, would be accepted by
those powers as conclusive proof Of the
rebe! weakness and exhaustion, and that
they would accordingly make all the
more haste TO secure permanent AMIGA.
bic relations with the powerful govern
ment of the United States But the
Richmond Wing argues want of power
on the part of England to accomplish
anything against the United States, if
she were disposed to. The following
taken from the Wings article, will be
Of interest, particularly in these threat
eningly complicated times
England cannot recolonize us if
she would, and we think it pretty Ger.
tain that she would not if she conId. Tn
the beginning of this war ifshe had rec
ognized US, as she should have done and
declared her determination to compel
strict observation of the rules of block,
ade, laid down by herself at Paris, and
subscribed by all the maritime powers
Of Europe she might easily have put an
end TO the struggle before it had been
six months old. The Yankees at that
time held her in mortal terror. They
were ignorant of their own strength,
and held that of England in an awe ap.
preaching superstition. She might have
dictated her own terms, and they would
have subscribed to them without hesita-
ton. But Yankeedom has now q most
undue opinion of its own strength, and
q contempt for the strength of England,
warranted by the Cowardly policy her
cabinet has thought At to pursue. ANY
interference of England would be resent
ed as an insult and she has not the pow
er to enforce any line Of hostile policy
she may adopt. She has allowed the
Yankees to put their own coasts tnto
such state Of defense as to render them
unassailable by her fleets She has no
ships that could encounter the Yankee
monitors with any prospect Of success !;
and, although 1t is easy enough for her
to build such, yet the probability is that
they would not be able to cross the
ocean, Monitors are made for coast de-
Tense and not for ocean navigation.
She could not, then, in all probability,
break up the blockade Of our ports, far
less send an army and feet here to assist
US in driving away Ae Yankees, prepar-
atory to returning to colonial vassalage.
VS. think it, therefore, hardly worth
while to inquire into the expediency Of
returning to the arms of Old England,
seeing Old England could not receive us
if she wouA We must fight it out
with the Yankees, The alternative pre-
sented is death or slavery We hope our
people have not yet come to that point
that they hesitate in their choice"

The "0il Fever continues to spread.
New discoveries of petroleum are being
made In the Central States, in the West
ern States, on the Pacific side Of the
Rocky Mountains and elsewhere. A
live American is reported to have recent
ly discovered and bought a we'll in Rus

that country, and also another one some
where else on the other side of the globe
The last one mentioned is said to be as old

working its way nearer to US 1t has
already spread from New York City up
TO Troy. Two Oil companies exist among
the Troians, and others are in process of
organization. Whether the epidemic
will soon include Rutland or take turn
in another direction, remains to be seen.

great many places where it is not In the
