recognizing the South. On the other hand, if we wait to recognize the Confederates till we cannot help it, we shall have no claim on their friendship, and no right to their assistance when the North does find the courage to quarrel with us. Recognition, then, so far from tending to precipitate war, is the best possible guarantee for permanent peace between ourselves and the United States; and if either Parliament or the Administration were capable of a courageous and far-sighted policy, Mr. Lindsay's motion might have a chance of being carried, and of rendering material service to the country and to mankind. But to submit such a motion to a house which has just approved Lord Russell's betrayal of Denmark, and in which the authors of our Polish and American policy have an obedient majority of eighteen, is simply to invite defeat, to give an advantage to the Northern faction in Parliament, and to counteract, by an adverse parliamentary vote, whatever effect may be produced by the man

Three years have almost elapsed since the first defeat of the Federals, and during the whole of that time the Confederates have fought, not as Spain fought against France during the uneasy reign of Joseph Bonaparte, not as the Spanish colonies fought against Spain, not even as our own American colonies fought against the armies of George III., but as Russia fought Napoleon in 1815, or as Frederick II. defended himself against Austria in the Seven Years War. The war has been waged for the most part on Southern soil; it has, so far, not been a war on equal terms: that the one party has fought for empire and the other only for independence. But it has in no way partaken of the character of an insur
