Bullock,  of  Louisville,  made  a  speech  at  Cincinnati,  in
which  he  said :

"We  believe  she  [Kentucky]  can  retain  a  position  of
neutrality.  She  claims  she  can  act  the  part  of  a
mediator,  but  go  for  the  Union  as  it  was,  and  the  Con-
stitution as  it  is."     {Louisville  Journal,  April  27,  1861.)

§  6.  An  act  of  the  Confederate  Congress  approved
March  6,  1861,  provided  a  force  not  to  exceed  100,000  to
repel  invasion  and  maintain  possession  of  Confederate
territory,  and  insure  tranquillity  and  independence.  (  War
Records,  Serial  No.  127,  p.  126.)     (Res.  p.  4.)

§  7.  "  The  foot  of  the  oppressor  is  on  the  soil  of
Georgia.  He  comes  with  lust  in  his  eye,  poverty  in  his
purse,  and  hell  in  his  heart.  He  comes  a  robber  and  a
murderer.  How  shall  you  meet  him?  With  the  sword
at  the  threshold — with  death  for  him  or  for  yourself.
