Recognition of Confederacy By France and England?

A telegraphic New York report on possible recognition of the Confederacy by France and England after March supplies a sensational view. The piece argues that Britain and France seek to weaken the United States by supporting the South, citing commerce, Mexico, naval power, and looming Confederacy strength as drivers.
