Recognition of the Confederacy. A rumor prevailed extensively Saturday that intelligence had been received that Belgium and Spain had recognized the Southern Confederacy as a free and independent nation, and that the President would issue a proclamation to that effect.--Up to last evening this rumor had not been authenticated.

The difference. --A marked difference in the price of articles of "prime necessity" exists in various localities of the South; for instance, the "staff of life," which is selling in Mobile at $40 per barrel, while in Richmond it commands for the very best quality, $27, and in Winchester it only brings from $8 to $12 per barrel. Wheat at no time since the war commenced has cold here for more than $4.00 per bushel, but in Alabama it ranges from $4 to $5, and in King and Queen county, in this State, it is sailing for one dollar per bushel! In Danville, Farmville, Lynchburg, and Staunton, butter is selling (for fresh) at 50 cents per pound, while in Richmond markets it is retailing at $1.50 per pound.--The commodity of coffee, strange to say, is now selling here at while in Mobile, where it ought to sell at lower rates, it commands $8 a pound readily at public auction.

ite evident that the resources of the South must be prodigious — that the state of society must be at least up to the standard of the greatest and most enlightened nations — that the culture of the people must be severe, self- denying, and refined — to produce such fruits as these. All these proofs of wealth, strength, intelligence and virtue are more than borne out by the decennial-census made by the Federal Government, itself, when no disturbing causes threw suspicion upon the returns. In 1850 the breadstuffs of the free States were given at 334 000,000 of bushels, and of the "rebels" at 383,000,000; potatoes in the North 60,000,000, and in the South 44,000,000; milch cows, 4,000,000 and 2,800,000 respectively; sheep, 15,000,000 in the North, against 6,600,000 in the South; swine, 10,000,000 in the North and 20,000,000 in the South; Northern bullocks 4,200,000, and Southern 6,085,000--This proportionate producer is 18½ bushels breadstuffs per head in the free, and 32 bushels in th

nal savages, by manumission or colonization, have been conspicuous failures. King Lincoln calls the negroes together to tell them that their contiguity is odorous to his subjects, and that they must clear out for Central America. He assures Horace Greeley that if the Union can be saved by riveting the chains of the slave he will rivet them. As for the slaves themselves, brushed with the wrongs of Dred and Uncle Tom, most provoking — they cannot be brought to "burn with revenge."--They areork in the fields as usual when the planter and the overseer are away, and only the white women are left at home. The black regiments of insurgent Unionists have proved a failure and been disbanded. We wonder how "Professor"(!)

The Border Slave States have left them to their fate; have armed against them. Twenty millions of Unionists have attacked six millions of "rebels," and the free States men have been beaten back to their very trenches by less than one third of their number of slave drivers.

They have sustained for nearly two years the shocks of a war to which these of Napoleon were skirmishes rolled back the tide of battle, and are now thundering at the very gates of a quaking enemy, that have brought thirteen hundred thousand warriors into the field, and equipped, paid, fed, and furnished them, as never army and navy are really not greater, and the charity of Europe in emigration alone raises it above the Muscovite level. Let but the South go on fighting pro aris at focts, until its armies become as seasoned and thoroughly military as the cohorts of Cæsar, Napoleon, or Wellington, and they will need but a secession.
