oe?ion to the Abolitionists. When the Union
"exigted, Che Constitution gave no right to
* tbe President or Congress to free the slavea.
Kraancipation was the thunderbolt in the hands
of the President to destroy the social organisation
of the South at a blow. Mr. Lincoln haa
assumed the right to launch, without the power
to enforce his decree. The North must conquer
every square mile of the South before it
cad make the proclamation of more effect than
merely a waste of paper."
The New York Tribune, of the 20th, in an
editorial, says:?"The last advices from ?nrope
render it morally certain that France and
Great Britain will recognize the Southern Confederacy
on or about the 1st of January next
provided the situation shall remain unchanged
till that time. In other words, if our armies
gofato winter quarters without achieving further
and more decisive successes, Western Europe
flies to the rescue of the rebels."
The Washington correspondent of the same
paper writes: "Ladies here of rebel proclivities^
who are on intimate terms with the Belgian
Legation confidently assert that Belgium is
about to recognize the Southern Confederacy*
and that her example will be followed by the
larger Powers of Europe."
Commercial advices from New York show
that a strong impression exists among the lead,
ing merchants that a termination of the war
will ultimately occur from a financial crisis and
the consequent confusion in the North.
The Secret of the Failure of the Marylaud
Compaign.
The following is extracted from the Washington
correspondence of the Chicago Tribune:
General Lee's military operations in Maryland
have failed only for the want of troops.
If^at the decisive moment, on Wednesday, he
had had 10,000 fresh troops to hurl against
Burnside at the bridge of Antietam, the day
would have been lost to us, our army would
have been annihilated, and Gen. Lee would
have remained in Maryland. I do not make
this statement at random. I know what I say
is true; and the history of the battle, when it
comes to be written, will show it to be so. How
many troops do you suppose General Lee had
in Maryland altogether ? 150,000 ? 100,000?
He had, to fight the battle of Antietam, just
fifty-six thousand combatants; not a man more*
1 know that fact positively; and this included 1
the troops that had fought at Harper's Ferry,
and captured that palcc on the 15th. <
The divisions of Jackson, Walked, and A. P.
Hill left Harper's Ferry on Monday afternoon
crossed the Potomac on the pontoon bridge^
marched all Monday night, got into position,
and rested on Tuesday, and were ready to
fight, and did fight at Antietam, on Wednes'
day. Moreover, the artillery ammunition of
the Confederates gave out during the afternoon
of the 17th, and they fired out their cannon
pieces of railroad iron about eighteen inches
long. Scores of these missiles were found on
the field of the 18th.
The Expected Attack on Charleston?A
New Version of an Old Story.?The city
gossips, yesterday, were all agog over the statements
of a deserter from the Yankee fleet named
Alexander Russell, who had just reached
the city. Ho claims to have overheard, in the
conversation of Yankee officers, that Charleston
is to be attacked between the 1st and 10th
of November, that the naval demonstration is
to made by a very large and powerful fleet, including
two iron-clads, and that reinforcomonts, '
about 17,000 strong, arc daily expected to par-,
Iticipate in the land attack. He adds, that the
officers of the enemy are by no means sanguine
of taking Charleston, and says that the opinion
prevails amongst them that the disappointment
resulting from an unsuccessful attempt would
go far towards giving an effective impetus to
the cauae of the Peace Party. We give th*se
statements to our readers for whatever they
may be worth.
Russell is a British subject, and says ho was
enlisted in the enemy's service by fraud. He
was attached to the Yankee vessel Isaac P.
Smith, oft Stono; and being sent ashore in
company with nine others to kill some beeves,
he watched his chance and skedaddled to our
lines.*- Mercury,
