I couldn’t find any mention of it in the article you cited, so maybe you can tell us: How many U.S. troops did Jefferson send to Connecticut and/or Massachusetts to “put down” the secessionist movement?

He didn't need to send troops, the people where apparently a hell of a lot smarter than the south when they started the civil war.
