A Madrid letter states that the rebels have made pro Posals to tho Spanish government for recognition, with the s.nction and support of Napoleon. The rebels guaran- toe the indepen lence of Cuba, by treaty or othorwise, in re- turn for certain reasonable advantages. The proposition was under consideration, The London @mes criticizes Bright’s spoech on media tion, und says Bright was formerly favorable to yolun- tocr embassies and peace movements; but in his new character he appears as an apologist for war, protest against m diation and was an advocate of conquest. A leer from Mr. Spence, of Liverpool, appears in the London Times, Ho asserts that recognition is perfectly compatible with neutrality. Those who say that tho Southern States bave not carned their independence haye ‘Dot considered that they were held not as the provinces of some ompiro, subject to higher authority, but as sove Felgn and independent communities. Hence this is not a Struggle on tho part of the South to create independence, Dut a struggle on the part of the North to destroy it, Rules ‘Vuat hold good agatust revolting provinoos cannot apply to ‘Btatos scparating from coequals. Tho objection has been advanced that recognition should be met by war on the partof the North. But none recommend the measure, except in conjunction with other Powers. It is yory possible that a war of words might be declared by a few journals fend orators. Recogiition is a measure which, so far from Stimulating war, is a solemn notice that the object has passed beyond the reach of war. However uppalatabie at Oret shock, recognition is the true and effective measure of peace. IMPORTANT REBEL MOVEMENTS, Three Powerful Iron-Clad Rams B ing in England for the Rebc!
