BowLING GREES, KY, Dec. 9th, 1862.
Friend Reoler.--As was looking over yoni
valuable paper, Just received this evening, the
thought struck inc that ] had never seen any
communication from the 1llth Regiment pub
lished IN lis columns. | have often thought
would write TO you, but knowing that | was a
poor letter writer, ! never could bring myself
to the task, but now | will endeavor to break
the ice.
We are encamped neaf tlis place Rive COM
panies OF our regiment arc quartered in the fort
located on College Hill. Here the foundation
Of large college was laid, and the rebels used
u for powder magazine; now We use II for a
like purpose. The remainder Of the regiment
are encamped at the foot of the bill. Yesterday
there was considerable excitement in camp, We
expected an attack from Gen. Forrest who, Il
was reported, was marching for this place with
force of 1000 men. We were we'll aware II
this was the case that weshould have something
TO do We only have force Of about 1000
here at present--threo regiments of infantry and
300 cayalry-but we are making every prepar-
alton TO give them warm reception when they
do come,if they come at all. We have but three
pieces Of artillery in the fort but they appear
10 be good ones.
There has nothing Of importance transpired

company yet, but there viii be some soon. We
have FIVE men that will never bo of any account

This is one of the demands Of modern
conservatism. 1t is put forward as q war
platform by Democrats, who now claim to
be conservative as the most conservative Of
the Border State politicians. OF the lat
ter, the Hon. Garrett Davis, Senator from
Kentucky, may be regarded as the exam
plar. He is more--the conservative en-
bodiment. The National Lnteligencer, is
the exponent and organ. Now mark this
conservative consistency. Senator Davis
has submitted in the Senate proposition
to amend the Constitution Of the United
States-to change it, radically alter one of
the most cherished provisions. The pro-
posed reform of "Lhe Constitution as it is"
is to take from the people the right to elect
the President and Vice President Of the
United States, and TO make State Legisla-
lures the nominators, and members of Con-
gress the electors of President and Vice
President The Davis plan proposed in
this: Within thirty days previous to the
election, the Legislature of each State may
nominate ono candidate. From these nom
inees Congress will first elect President
and next Vice President. Should five
days be consumed without choice, then
the lowest candidate shall be dropped on
each ballot until the contest is decided,
This is maintaining "the Constitution as
it is" with veugeancel The proposition
however, strikes the National Latelligencer
"very favorably," and according to thai
! journal "seems TO combine all the elements
of wide range Of selection, safely from cor
rupting influences, and the best security fo
the choice of wellqualified and prOpe
man for the Chief Magistracy."
To perfect the proposed change, ough
not the State Legislatures to elect the Con
), gressmen, the county officers elect the Leg
islature, the township officers electthe coun
ty officers, and the real estate owners elec
the township officers p Cleve. Herald

a CnnndInn OpInIon oflhe Demoernts.

A ACanndinu OPIuion ofIhe Democrats.
The Toronto Globe, in an article upon
tho parties in tho United States, gives the
Democrats credit for some oftheir positions
upon national questions in years past, but
then faithfully and forcibly reviews tho
present position Of that party rs follows:
"But in regard to slavery tho Democrats
have been not merely Indifferent TO the wei
fare ofhumanity, but the active spoiogists
for, and willing tools Of the slave system.
They besiiated al nothing which could graf
ify the Southern slaveocracy. They denied
the right Of petition; they passed law to
convert Federal officers into man.huntcrs
throughout the North they handed over 10
slavery territory which by solemn compact
had been declared free. 1t was from their
presses that we're poured denunciations of
every Briton who yeniured TO utter word
on behalf Of the Southern slaves; il was
they who drove anti-slavery men from the
platform by the power Of the mob.
Such has been the past career Of tho par
ty which the London Times and its CON
freres delight to honor. And what Is il
nowG By its subserviency to the South, it
encouraged tho slaveocracy to believe that
40 resistance would be made to anything
they proposed-not even to the subversion
of the Union. Northern Democrats played
into the hands of tho Southern oligarchy,
until the very moment of the attack on Fort
Sumter. Even after that event democratic
sympathies were in favor Of the South; but
the strong feeling Of Indignation which il
aroused throughout the people, temporarily
destroyed the party, and threw the control
of affairs into the hands of the Republicans.
As the war went on, and the errors and
shortcomings oftbe ADMINISTRATION became
patent, the Democratic party were on the
watch to take advantage of every incident
which could help the cause of slavery, but
more particularly those which were calcu.
lated to assist their return to office. Mr..
Lincoln's Government have been placed in
very difficult circumstances, and arc neither
immaculate nor infalible. The sturdy resis.
tance of the South, and the incapacity Of the
Northern generals, have soured the North
ern people, and seriously weakened the
power of the Government to carry on
the war. The Democrats, without any re-
gard TO the interests of the county, have
nourshed popular discomfort, and done ev-
erything in their power to prevent the sue
cessful prosecution Of tho war; and they
have been more especially active when the
measures Of the Administration assailed
the peculiar institution"
