Frankfort (Ky.) Cor Cincinnati Gazett,
Ready to give up Slavery rath-
er than the Government.
The caucus, the other night, on FEEDER
al Relations, resulted as 1 predicted in
my dispatch that evening. The general
tone was temperate; there was DISPOSE
ton to ignore the vexations of the mess
age, and the war report as far as possible,
and to uphold the government at all haz-
ards. The resolutions condemn the poll
cy Of arming the slaves, bnt make no
other allusion to Cameron.
the caucus debate illustrates the temper Of
the members The probability that the
war would end in the destruction of sla-
very was alluded to. The strongest pro-
slavery man in the Legislature, and one
of the largest shareholders in Kentucky,
arose and said: "As to that, sir, l wish
to say, here in my place, that If the ques-
ton comes to that though think it need
not, but if it comes to that, I will wiling
ly lose every slave in my possession, rather
than see Kentucky prove false to the gov
ernment Perish slavery, sir; long live
the government" And the declaration
was received by that Kentucky caucus
with salvo Of vociferous cheers!
We commend the above to the half
dozen pro-slavcry Journals of this State,
from the Pioneer and Democrat, down to
the hand organ on Fourth Street, who can
see no other way of resurrecting the De-
mocratic party, but by giving aid and CON-
fort to the rebels, and keeping up their
silly goose cackle of -ists.-
They seem to forget that the. leading men
Of what was once their party are as earn
est in this matter as the ultra Republi-
cans.-Faribauh Republican.
