Excerpt from Speech of Maj.-Gen. Benj. F. Butler, Upon the Campaign Before Richmond, 1864: Delivered at Lowell, Mass., January 29, 1865 State. 'you have followed him to New Orleans, and witnessed with feelings of pride his masterly energy in governing the heterogeneous population of that city, refuting the subtleties Of foreign diplomatists, punishing the guilty, and protecting the poor and unfortunate; and, more recently, in the siege of Richmond, you have anxiously watched the progress of events, ever solicitous for his success.

General Butler, on behalf of this Committee and this vast assemblage of your fellow-citizens, I bid you a cordial welcome to your home, assuring you, sir, that to whatever circumstances we are indebted for this Visit, our confidence in your patriotism, integrity, and ability, is unimpaired. Ladies and gentlemen, I have the honor to present to you your distinguished fellow-citizen, major-general Butler.
