Camp Lee. --The rain on Friday night was in no way conducive to the enjoyment of camp life, and no doubt many persons thought of John Brougham's witticism, that the sufferings of the soldiers were in tents. In this case, however, the idea was somewhat exaggerated; for although the soldiers occupied their canvas houses during the storm, they got along quite comfortably. The sentinels experienced a little of the hardship consequent on exposure to the rain, but the majority of the men that we saw on Saturday seemed to be as dry as anybody else. The evolutions on the parade ground were very good, and the steady movements of the troops exhibited a marked improvement since the camp was established. A few ladies, undaunted by the chilling atmosphere, were there to see the parade, but the number of spectators, compared with that of the previous day, was small.

Among the military officers present we observed Gen. Scott, of Powhatan, and Gen. Coleman, of Louisa — We missed the fine company of cavalry from Sorry, which left for home that morning. About 1 o'clock, the troops left the ground and rode to the city, passing through the Capitol Square and in front of the Governor's mansion. Our citizens never before saw such a splendid cavalcade upon the streets, and everybody was delighted with the spectacle.--This visit to the city was in accordance with the general wish, not only of our residents, but of the troops themselves, and w

ations have no other principles, affinities or affections than their interests; that the interests of Great Britain are involved in preserving her commercial and manufacturing pre-eminence, and that the United States is the only rival she has to fear in either of these fields of enterprise. It is evident enough that this rival cannot be put out of the way by war. We are too far removed from her, even if we were feeble instead of strong, to be easily conquered by the sword. The experiment of 1812 does not encourage a renewal of that experiment. Moreover, war would cut off one of her best customers, as well as deprive her of her supplies of cotton. In this state of things she looks for a weak place in our system, and she thinks she finds it in Southern institutions. In one portion of the Union exists a peculiar kind of labor, introduced here by herself, and which is essential to the cultivation of the chief staples. In another portion, this kind of labor is not found, and there is

with the character or history of Great Britain. When did she ever sacrifice interest to principle, or commerce to consistency? Who but herself supplied the world with slave labor, when it was necessary to stock her colonies and enrich her tradesmen with that kind of enterprise? If real philanthropy is her rule of action, how can she reconcile it to her sensitive conscience to embark in the Coolie trade, to force opium upon the Chinese at the point of the bayonet, and to subject her vast East India population to the most abject and degraded vassalage? Which is most likely — that such a people should sacrifice Pelf to Principle, or Principle to Pelf? For ourselves, we know not what truth there is in the charge that disappointed Southern communities are looking to England, in a certain contingency, for succor and co-operation. If it be true, however, it is no great compliment to the character of their contemplated ally. It implies a cool and thorough conviction that she does no

It is the steady and determined purpose of Great Britain to destroy her principal commercial and her futuions than their interests; that the interests of Great Britain are involved in preserving her commercial and mats. Let our Northern countrymen reflect whether Great Britain is not making a more cats paw of them upon this abolition subject. Let them consider whether Great Britain may not be aiming a real blow at Northern commerce at Southern slavery? Let them just suppose that Great Britain, having succeeded in setting North and South by o is acquainted with the character or history of Great Britain. When did she ever sacrifice interest to princiith its property when it becomes the interest of Great Britain to respect its rights. But simply because, as lican spirit exists, it will not willingly permit Great Britain to reap the fruits of her own insidious and mali

It is the steady and determined purpose of Great Britain to destroy her principal commercial and her future manufacturing rival, the United States. We do not allege any such hostility against her people at large, nor do we believe that the prejudices and collisions of the past are still rankling in their or affections than their interests; that the interests of Great Britain are involved in preserving her commercial and manufacturing pre-eminence, and that the United States is the only rival she has to fear in either of these fields of enterprise.
