N the Enquirer.
10 tho People or Hanover.

Fellow itizens-I have this day forwarded
to his ExcellencY, the Governor Of the Com
monwealth, my resignation Of the representa-
tive trust with which it was your pleasure to
honor me on the fourth Thursday in May last.
You will find no difficulty, undcr existing cir
curus,ancrs, in approaching the motives which
impel me to this course. AT the time oil my
election, most Of us entertained the hope that
the reckless spirit of uSurpation which, hay
ing oyerthrown the buiwarks Of civil liberty
at home, seemed about to address itself TO the
idle task of subjugating eight millions OF ne
reditary fieemen, would exhaust itself in that
vulgar bombas, wh:ch Is So marked a charac-
~teristic Of the arbitrary Gespotistn DOW estab-
lishcd in Washington. Experience has long
since dispelled this deiusion. Events have
proved that the folly Of our enemies is fully
equal to their wickedness. Under the hollow.
pretence of preserving the Constitution. the
Federal Administration has ~lDaug0rcted an
unholy Wal, which must make Us either 4 ma
ton OF soldiers or a nation OF slaves. When
that war shall te, inmate lis 4 question for the
aggressor, not for the asSailed. As 1t i'll be-
comes us to distrust its final iss,ia, 80 it Is I'M
worthy of the dignity OF oar cause to indulge
over.sanguine hopes OF the speedy termination
Of this great battle for independence. If a
correct appreciation Of the principles upon
which this contest is waged should induce 70
reign powers to recogniz" cur nationality, it
is we'll. If the interests OF neutral commerce
should induce European interference to break
the paper bonds which tyranny seeks to i'm
pose upon our trade, it is better. But that
people is rot yet ripe for independence which
would entrusL its liberties to the interests of
o. the accidents Of trade. TO es.
tablish independence, we must conquer peace.
And upon tho young men Of tine South that
sacred duty is devolvcd. Between duties of
the office to which you have unanimously
elected Inc and the duties Of my present posi-
ton, | canuot hesitate. With a grateful sense
Of the generous confidence with which you
have h,nored mo in the past, | have rendered
my resignation at this early day, to give you
the fullest possible opportunity to select some
suitable person to reflect your wishes and to
protect ycur interests in the c~ounsels Of the
State.
Respectfully and gratefully yours,
W. B. NEWTON.

From Kentucky.

L,uLsvALLl. Sept. S.-There has been q
stampede among the Southerners here on bu.
slncss. 1t occurred this morning, and was
occaSioned by an Unauthorized statement that
business Oh the railroad was to be stopped
Up to three O'clock today nothing was re-
ceired from the War Department. Authorita.
tive assurances have been given that ample
notice will be given Of the stoppage Of the
trains.
Parties are here who arc writing to different
places in the North for ladies and children to
come 10 them here. These parties have made
e great mistake in advising the ladies' and
children to obtain passes. No passes are
granted, and there is no real fear Of venturing
On the journey without them. Many remain
at the North who would have been home long
ago if they had not been frightened about
what business could induce Southern ladies
and children to visit or remain in the free
States any time within the last six months.
The Commissioners from kentucky stopped
here while on their way to Southern Kentucky.
The object of their mission is unknown.
Intelligence has been received here that
Shel3ina, Missouri, who, although mustered
out d Service, volunteered to escort a train of
cars To s.. joseph.
Many arrests a:e'cpprtei At various points.
The Missouri prisoners will be held for re.
t~aliatioa in case Gen. Fremont carries his
murdsrous proclamation into effect.
We have nothing later FROM Paducah, al
though pirate reports state tina. fighting is
going on.
LOUISVILLE, Sept. 5, P. M.-The commits
sioners referred to in q former dispatch are to
visit both the Confederate and Federal forces
now on the soil Of Kentucky, and to see upon
what authority and for what purpose those
forces are in Kentucky.
