The Recognition Question. A telegram from Kichmotid says that ike la* j teat neiy from Kurope had diaaipaled all bnpea j of a speedy recognition of the (Confederacy hy | foreign powers, and that the subject had ceaaed , to be one of common conversation. Some of i our public men recently gave publicity Us tl?e | opinion that it was not the intention of Eng. j land and France to allow the North Ur snttjui j gate tlie South, and that a serious reverse to * our arms would precipitate recognition aad 1 * " ? " < armed intei venli?n iu our favor. The effect, , therefore, which our lata reverses might have * upon the recognition question in England and Frauca *u looked forward to with unusual im 1 tereat. It aecma, however, that t^e intelligence J of our recent reverses hae had eu effect diroet- , 1) contrary to that which many persona sup* , posed it would have. The recognition question is again postponed indefinitely. ( It is folly for the South to rely any longer upon foreign aid. Her independence mutt be | achieved by her own esertiona.

We aie glad to state, however, that be i* now better. % To this bombardment, which ceased as morning approached, our batteries replied, it is believed, with no inconsiderable effect. On Thursday the batteries were inotunllr si. lent; buitlic events of the day betoken perhaps a more momentous struggle I'tnn we have yet seen in the vicinity of Charleston. There aie now inside the bin two mortar Ironls, the lionsides, six monitors, tive gunboats and ten supply vessels. Twelve vessels, .among them it French man-of-war, bee descried outside, while in l.ight House Inlet there are ten moiv, these being made up ot steamboats and schooners ? In the course ol the morning two uuuboats as vaulted Fort Sumter, l>u( at so great a distance that most ol their shot fell shoit. They soon *iUnitcw.

The contest between tire batteries continued til Thursday night, though with less vigor than was displayed the night bolore^ The morning if Friday was comparatively quiet. Two mortar hulks, stationed otf Morris island, tlitew a ew shells in the direction ol Sumter, but ilieir missiles tell slioit. In the alieniooii the laud milleiies again iipened upon each other; llat teiy Siiupkins, as u-ual, seeming especially active. At ten o'eloek, p. hi , the tiling was still ijoiug oil. It is leponed that another vessel of i veiy formidable character haa been added to ihe tieet. ? J/erctsry 16/A tnfl. In the daikest hour yf our revolution.
