But with night came ti e arms of our Cki. A boot a doaeo gentlemen Irom tho Wilmington Light Infantry and U.Dj Guards bad son two weeks previous formed themselves into a company of Minstrels, whose object was to exhibit publicly 00 Christmas night, tbe result of tbeir labors and practice for tbe entertainment of those lu camp. .Io the front part of tbe encampment a stage was erected, wbile a large awning stretched over bead from which tbe " Stars and Bare " were gracefully pendent 00 three aid a, completed tbe arrangement ol this temporary " play house." Long before tbe hour appointed for tbe beginning of this performance, a large crowd had collected in fiout of tbe stage, and by tbe time tbat boar arrived, every street and tent was well nigh deserted. Oa account of tbe space I bave already occupied, it will be impossible to enter into any detail concerning this tniertoiument Every one bos no doubt witnessed the performance of Christie's Mioistrels, and tbe diversions our aoldier Minstrels presented were somewhat in imitation of these. It is sufficient to aay tbat the whole affair roved a complete success, and the performers were amply repaid lot tbeir trouble in tbe universal admiration srsd approbation ol the spectators. Altogether " ChristmAa ia camp " is not such a bug bear, though there is Dot one 0 ui but what sincerely bops b kiod fortune may bo favor ua that our nert shall be spent of home. . MILE3.

It is quite clear, that the f w honest journals and respei-tabk; ra te id tbe Aortbv tro Stales, are shocked and dh'guiiled'.at tlie act of CapL Wiikes. They would not at aiy tin desire war with Eng'atid, they would at a great sacrifice avoid it onrter prexnt iircumatauoeii, when an army of 350,000 men mmai-es their heutheru frontier, and wbeo tbey could not Bp ire a ship or a regiment from their present duties to wsge war 01 us iu Canada or on tho seov But, above ail, tLcee wen dread and dVw-rt the hi a of war wiib England iu a tmd cause.

Iut un huppiiy the educated ela io America are practically dMlia-iclii I -The mob is suorcnaa; and tbe nub is rukd by pocMioQ, and not by principle.

They will not b ur reason ; tbey care Bo thnia; for riL'ht or law. Tbe rejoicing ol the Empire City over the capture of the " rebel " envojs is in additional evidence of a teuipur whicb luukes u shudder at the prospect of a prolongation of the present civil coutliei. 11 would seem that personal hatred to their autagouists minglei in this war to a degree never before witnessed, unltss it were 111 tlie guerrillia war ol Spaiu against tbe French invaders, lo get bold of lour Southern geo tlemeo tho North will risk struggle with England. To hang a score of Southern soamen tbey are wil ling to in ike tbeir feud with tbe South a war to the knife, and to engine the immediate execution cf every pruouer taken 00 either side. Oa the preposterous condemnation of the ciew of a Coolederute vessel, Air. Davis very properly ordered a numbsr ol Fcekral tffi- curs into closf con line meu t, giving notice tbat tne ex ecuiion of any ol tbe prisoners tukco in the SaraU' nub would be the death warrant of these captives. Tho necessity lor strsw reprisals is painful to any man ol decent feeling ; but honor and justion leave, no al ternutivu. I be guklt rests with tuose who, begin tbe policy of murd .r. Tbe judicial murder of a prisoner of war has left a damnable and ineffaceable stain on the memory of the tnly great generul America ever produced. Mr. Lincoln bus already parodied tbe seiz ure of the Duo D Enghien ; docs ho intend to make a precedent of the dastardly asaxaination of Andre? II he does, be 111 ly rest assured tbat be will have made a lutul blunt ler. . nen be bus inrotved himself in a war with U. Britain tho Confederate army will work its will with bisdiBtruoted forces, und for every prisoner whom he moy put lo death, his rival will b3 ao.e to. ban? tiirce. Pusiouute and reckless as has Ueu bis cuttrse hitherto, we do earnestly trust that be will stop short of this ex tame and wanton wickedness ; and il be leave bis name to posterity as tbut of tbe lust President of whut ouce were tbe United States, we hope tbat be will not add to Mira utienvwuw distinction tne l'juctismiu rtme earned by the deliberate revival, after centuries ol disuse, of the practice ol murdering prisoners in cold blood. II be does, we shull certainly not find fault with the retaliation; but when the first crime bas been avenged, we trust tbut the civil e d world will interfere, as it did in Greece, to put an end to a war which will bare become not mere ly a nuisance to eominerce, btft a scandal to humanity. Such an atrocity as that apparently medditated by the Uoverutnent ol the ISortbern States would be htly punished by the joint intervention of tbo civiliz'd pow ers to rupprtss that Government altogether as a scourge to mankind and a difgrace to civilization. What an Ekoli.-h Membkx of Parliahint mixes. The Lond m S ar contains a letter from an M. P cempliui'ntary of Gen. Scott's letter, about which so mu-.'b bas been said, and deprecating a collision between England and the United States ve make tbe lollow ing extract: I he American Government and people are too saga cious to come to blows wiib as about ,lhe Trent affair, because tLey will be, if tbey are not already cenviuced that they are iu the wrong. When America engages in hostilities with englund, tho will take good care to be in tbe right, and to buve the public ooioion of Europe in ber furor. I pray Ood that that time mar not be tear at hand, but I am constraio ed to think tbat it is. It is utterly absurd to suppose that tbe American Government will not make any rea sonable, amende and reparation lor tbe act ol Capt. Wilkes. But I believe this is tbe last thing our Gov ernment wants. , It would prefer tbat all redress and reparation should be obstinately denied. This is no ras'i assertion, but is k'giiimute deduction from acts patent to all. For it is well known that for some time punt the Emperor of the. French bas urged on our Gov eminent tbe expediency of a j int recognition of the lave Confe deration. 1 1 not tbe people of Ibe country he deceived by our thitubY-r-rig politicians. Tbe best informed well know that the '1 rent affair will lead to no conflict with America ; tbe early recognition of the slave Coriled.ration might, aud most likely wound.
