its heterogeneous army into efficiency, and though the lessons of war may gradually supply that military character in which for the present it is deficient, her gros bataillons and her outpoured treasures will fail, like other armies and more ancient powers, to crush the newly-won independence of a resolute and united people.

The war, perhaps, is not one to awaken our warm sympathies for either party. The unfriendly tone of the organs of public opinion in the North, when in recent years the military prestige of England seemed for a space to wane, excited not resentment among us, but surprise that an honourable rivalry should have degenerated into jealousy, and that despotic Russia, rather than free England, should possess the sympathies of the great Anglo-Saxon Republic. Their importunate demands for our partisanship, at the same moment that they flouted our offers of mediationtheir insolent threats of finding compensation for Southern losses in aggression upon the peaceful British provinces-their loud boast ings and ignominious defeat-would have enlisted on the side of the

weaker party the generous British love of freedom and jealousy of despotism, whether wielded by an emperor or by a triumpant faction.

But that devotion to the cause of human freedom which has led us already to make so many sacrifices, has barred the way to our giving to the South that moral encouragement accorded so often to communities engaged in the struggle for independence and self-government. Recognition of their independence and close commercial relations with England, without restrictions upon trade, are earnestly desired by the people of the South; and there may be a little impatience that their nationality is as yet ignored by the civilised world. A more correct view appears, however, to be taken by the heads of the Government. "Our separation from the North," said President Davis lately, "is as complete as if it had been accomplished fifty years. But I am far from complaining of the tardy recognition of European governments. It is better for us that we should work out our own independence, and the rest will come in good time."
