& "In the Buell. Court of Inquiry Gen

Army CORES spondenee.
PETERsBuRaH, VA, Dec. %, 1862.


Editor Spirit of Democracy DEAR
SIR-Hoping few lines from the 116th
Regiment. o. v. l., would not come amiss
to the numerous readers of your paper,
/ have come to the wise conclusion of
trying to interest them for few moments
if possible.
l have heard a great many persons say
the 25th Ohio Reg't. had seen hard SER
vice, but if know anything about the
matter, the 10th has done more marching
in the last few NOR tbs than the 25th did
in twelve or fifteen months. We have
travelled nearly 600 miles, more than half
of which was made ON foot with knapsacks
on our backs Qoad enough for horse
and the worst of the matter is, we have
not met rebel in arms yet.
Day before yesterday the "long roll y
beat about noon, and we fell to our arms
expecting to hare chance to fight and
sustain our reputation. | suppose you
are aware we are called the "bloody
10th, and probabiyw We deserve the name,
for do not believe there is another Regi-
nfent in Uncle Sans" service has shed
as much blood in as short time as the
l 10th, that is sheep, cattle, hogs, chickens
and turkeys. The like never was known.
I'll insure it can do more plundering in
one nighttha any other Regiment would
do in two weeks (cxcept the s7th Pa.)
But to return to our fight: After
forming line of battle and standing half
an hour patiently awaiting the ensmy;
we were ordered to stack arms and return
to- our quarters, but keep prepared for
any emergency. And to end the matter
we were ordered to sleep with our. cart
ridge boxes on and guns by our side.
After all this preparation no enemy ap
peared, which was great disappointment
to many, but l suppose it was gratifying
to some. One man wanted to remain in
camp and cook while the rest were out in
line.
Now FOR the cause of all this prepara-
tion; scout came into camp and reported
that Imboden with from 1900 to 5000 cav
airy were only two miles distant, and in
tended to attack usss It is. true Imboden
did come within eight miles of this place.
Why he did not attack us nobody knows.
We are now in the enemy's country,
entirely surrounded by Seeesh. Rebel
bushwhackers are brought in daily. I
don't suppose there is half dozen loyal
men in the country, although if you meet
man and ask him whether he is Secesh
or Union, he will tell you "Union' inva-
riably. Wcwill probably proceed farther
into Dixie in few days; if anything
important occurs will not fail to inform
you. co. CA.

Stephen A, Douglas on Setting

the Negroes Free by Proclomation-A
Toiicc from, the Craze Against Lincoln $
Policy.
Senator Douglas gave his support to
the war policy Of President Lincoln, but
with the express understanding that if any
attempt was made to excite servile insur-
rcction in the South he would oppose the
war with all his power. In his speech be-
fore the Illinois Legislature, delivered at
Springfield on the 9th April, 1861, just
before his death, he said:
II think can appeal to friend and foe
/ I use it in political sense, and | trust
use the word iee in past sense. l can
appeal to them with confidence that / have
never pandered to the prejudice or passion
of my section against the minority section
of fthis Union and will say to you now
with all frankness and in all sincerity
that l will never sanction nor acquiesce il
any warfare whatever upon the constitu
tional rights or domestic institutions o
1.-THE people of the Southern States. Or
the contrary, If there was an attempt t.
invade those rights, to stir up seryile in
surrections among their people, woule
rush to their rescue, and interpose will
whatever of strength I might possess tt
defend them from such calamity"
Is there any Democrat that will not.d'
las Mr.. Douglas said he would, on thi
memorable occasion? . This speech of Air
Douglas was widely circulated and ap
proved by the Republican press at tn
ktime it was delivered.
