History has no record of such a succession of triumphs as has been vouchsafed to the arms of the South in these desperate and deadly encounters. Throughout all time they must stand without parallel in the manuals of warfare, and will give to the Southern character a position for cool intrepidity, daring valor, and persistent endurance, that would have been creditable to the Roman Legion or the Old Otfard of Napoleon. For six days have they wrested with the storm of battle with the most unflinching fortitude, and in every contest have wrenched from the hands of the unwilling Northmen the meed of victory.

But they will soon be stirred up still more when apprehension becomes reality. What they ought to do is to consider nowhere they will make their bed before it is too late. In a very short time our iron clad ships will be in such force on the ocean as to sweep Napoleon of the Gulf and his army out of Mexico. England perceives that, and wants to give Canada an opportunity of, taking care of herself when the storm comes which will make her, it she desires it, one of the United States--the greatest Republican the world, and about to become the most powerful nation of the earth. We will give the Cana six, nine or twelve months to make up their minds as to what they will do; we are not in a hurry about the sooner they decide that their with the United Sta
