trinsic and extrinsic. This is especially true of cotton — it is the great motor of commerce. Its money value, upon an average estimate, is about two hundred millions of dollars per annum. But it exerts a power far above its money value. It puts into operation thousands of millions of capital in Europe, to say nothing of the large amounts lately (and until this war was waged upon us,) in operation by it in the Northern States. This staple must be had by other nations, by England and France, especially, or the greatest distress will be felt by the millions of their people who are dependent upon it for their daily bread. The plan of the Government for raising the means to carry on the war, which is submitted to you to-day, is to take a loan from the planters of the nett proceeds of such portion of their crops as they can spare. In other sections, loans on the proceeds of grain and breadstuffs will be taken. Here, we produce cotton — our surplus is cotton. Should the
ecognition of Southern Independence. It is undeniable that the interests of both England and France point to an early recognition of Southern Independence. We have ever had a doubt of this, nor hand strength of our Government, we shall be entitled to the recognition, not only of England and France, but of the whole civilized world. We cannot expect them, with due regard to their own interests, to act hastily on such a question. We must make allowance for the difficulty experienced in France and England, in obtaining accurate accounts of the real state of things here, and for the necessiverdant enough to suppose that this is the result of any peculiar regard for our people, or that France or England care a dime about South or North, as such; but it is simply an intelligent sympathy ws own wants of every kind, and thus become independent of all nations. The trade of England and France is already suffering sorely, and the determination of the present U. S. Congress to make no chan
this the pretext for his call for four hundred thousand men and four hundred millions of money. He wishes to make short work of the war — to subdue the South during the current year, and have peace and trade prevailing before twelve months are over — The absurd creature! Even if he had the money, (which, thank to the Lord, he has not,) it would require more than twelve months to equip and organize an army of 400,000 men. That would be a task beyond the power of any nation in Europe. Even France, with all its martial propensities and capacities, would fail in such an attempt. But the hope of speedy peace could alone enable Lincoln to hope for an act of amnesty for his perjuries and usurpation from his Rump Congress, to say nothing of the additional men and millions required for the prosecution of the war. The bloody Blair, the savage Greeley, and the ferocious Raymond, all harken to the same cry, and call aloud for a short war. The country (they say) can't stand this protracted con
ifles, together with other accoutrements, and a large number of rifled cannon. It seems that the Sumter met near Cuba an English vessel that was on her way to New Orleans with these arms, which had been ordered previously. They were transferred to the Sumter, and that vessel had arrived at the Balize in safety. It is a fact that will reflect great credit upon the gallant officers who accomplished it, and shows how "effective" Lincoln's blockade is. The same gentleman informs us that over ten thousand hogeheads of tobacco were disposed of in New Orleans in one day during last week. The tobacco is intended for the French market, and the French purchasers paid for it in gold, instead of bills, as heretofore. This information, we believe, can be relied upon. The tobacco must be taken to France, and will go there in French bottoms. If old Abe's vessels undertake to prevent it, the distinguished ralisplitter will have a fight upon his hands in which "somebody" will be hurt.
From Europe. --The New York Herald editorially sums up the recent news from Europe as follows: The news from Europe by the Persia brings us some very important information with respect to the progress and prospects of the European coalition — of France, England and Spain-- against the integrity of the Union.--This is embraced in the letters of our correspondents in Paris and London and the extracts from our foreign files published this morning. We give the exact text of the article lately published in the Moniteur, in which Napoleon foreshadows the recognition of the rebel Confederacy as an independent Power. It is interpreted by our Paris correspondent exactly in the sense in which we read the translation received by the Etna, and the writer adds that it would have been embodied in a diplomatic circular addressed by M. Thouvenel to the French Ministers at Foreign Courts, as illustrating to them the exact position of his Majesty the Emperor towards Italy and America.
