inarre Of all citizens Ia the Free S,ates especially my
Democratic fellow cizens, whether they troubled
about the integrity OF Neutrality-suspicious. they think
it is neeesssry 10 stay up the hands Of rebellion IN
Kentucky, emphaticaly condemned thcrei And
now repeat that the only practical cause OF dssen
ton was the fugitive slave question: and that apper
tanned to States that could only be drawn dagooned
into the folly Of secessOn. Gen. Butler has bad this
question on bis hands. AZ long az the Constitution
was uckno lodged all conservative citizens admitted
that it was ths dny Of the Free States TO restore
tho fugitive who was nesing from the service
Of his master. Gen. Butler has found the restora
iion Of the fugiiyes inpraccabe In many cases.
