Tss- We learn that yesterday requisi
ton from the Governor of Kentucky was
made on Gov. Wright. for two persons, one
named McCormic, the name of the other we
did not learn, for the alledged crime of entic-
ing slaves from that State. The Governor
was absent, his private Secretary, Francis
King, issued TIE warrant, but Secretary Col
Inns refused to affix the Seal of State and sign
the papers, under the belief that the private
Secretary of the Governor is not Governor Of
the State.
QUERY.-Inasmuch as the alleged crime is one
not known 70 the laws Of Indiana, is the Gov
ernor himself bound to issue a warrant on
such requisition? If we rightly recollect,
kentucky has decided the principle otherwise.
