There are no people whose humiliation affords more
satisfaction to the generous mind than these Tories Of
Kentucky. They deliberately sold out their State to
the Yankees aud to be made to eat dirt in the face Of
the world by their hardhearted masters is spectacle
which God and men may contemplate with pleasure
