ST. LoUIs, Jan. 2.
Gov. Stewards message was read in the
Legislature to-day.
After reviewing the rise and progress Of the
Abolition and Republican parties, aud stating
the result Of their success, the Governor says:
Missouri occupies aposition In rcRMd to these
troubles that should make her voice potent
In the Councils Of the Nation. With scarce
lys disuuionist, per @, within her borders,
she is still determined TO demand and main
IAN her right al every hazard. She loves the
Union whilst protector Of equal rights. but
will deSpise It III; is an instrument Of wrong
She came into the Union upon compromise
and Is willing 10 abide by fair compromise;
still not such ephemcral contracts as are on
acted by Congress to-day aud repealed to-
morrow. but compromise assuring all Just
rights OF States, aud agreed to in solemn con
yehtion Of all parties interested.
Missouri has right to speak on this subject
because she has suffered, having probabl y
lost as much in the past few years in the alb
duction Of slavas as all the rest Of the South
ern States.
Speaking Of secession the Governor depre-
Gates the action Of South Carolina and says our
people would feel more sympathy with the
had it originated amongst those
who like ourselves had suffered severe loss
ana constant annoyance from the interference
and the depredations OF outsiders. Miss nri
vii hold to the Union SO long as it is worth
an effort to preserve it. She cannot be fright
ened by past uniriendly Legislation OF the
North, or dragooned into secession by rcstric
tive Legislation Of the extreme South. The
Governor denies the right Of voluntary seces-
sion, and says it would be utterly destructive
to every principle on which the National faith
is founded, and appeals to the great conserv-
alive masses ofthe people to put down SELLS
and designing politicians, and avert the threa-
ening evils, and closes with strong recon-
t. adopt all proper measures for
our rights, yet protests against hasty and I'm.
wise action, and records his unalterable ] We
ton to the Union 80 long as it can be made
the protector Of equal rights. The Governor
then passes TO State matters, and shows the
finance TO he in prosperous condition lie
recommends n revision Of the military laws;
advises arming the militia for purposes of pro-
lection against invasion, refers to the condi.
tion Of the different railroads, and recommends
the Legislature to relieve the banks from the
penalties incurred BY the temporary suspen
sion Of specie payment.

Trap set for the Unwary.

The object (says the Pennsylvanian, }
of the Black Republicans raising and
sticking to the cry of coercion, is to draw
to them and to their organization the
men of all parties in the North, 1t is to
consolidate and perfect that sectonalism,
that Abolitionism which constitutes their
vital breath. They are trying to abuse
and frigben the President, the Believer
EFT men and all, into the advocacy OF CO.
ercive measures, so as to save themselves
from the tender merces of that appalling
reaction, which. sooner or later, is bound
to occur in the North. Will our people
be so blind and stupid as to fall into q
trap so cuuningly set for them?

Il he Olden Time.

In 1871 JACOB UHL, father Of GEORGE UHL and
brothers, came to this neghborhood to enter land.
He crossed the Ohio River at Steubenville. The
first white man he saw after leaving Stubenville
was Judge PETER CASEY, who then resided on the
farm now owned and occupied by ARMSTRONG
WolG,MoT, Immediately West Of this place. AT
the time the only white men living in the range Of
territory which now composes Home county, was
Nv. The SHRIhrLINs lived about mile North
west Of Oxford. There were two families named
MORGAN living up the Killbuck Immediately over
the Wayne county line. Judge CASEY died in
1886, and vas buried on his farm. In 1918 there
were three houses in Millersburg, the part which
is now called the old town, Immediately North of
the present corporate limits of our thriving village
One of the buildings was frame. and tie other
two were cabins. One Of the cabins was hotel,
but the principal hotel of the place was kept in the
frame; JAMES WITHERow, the landlord, boasted of
ample accommodations for the travelling public.
The building was on story and half high; the
family lived up stairs while the lower part of the
house was occupied as the tavern. The tavern
omprised bar room, dining room and kitchen )
all Of which served for bed rooms. The frame
building is still standing on the old foundation,
and now occupied by Mr.. rAsoHER as a adwellng.

NEWS SQUIBS.

GOVERNOR MORGAN, of New York, rec.
ommends the repeal Of the personal lib
erty bills of that State. The Michigan
Legislature met on the Bird inst The re
firing Governor, in his message, argued
against the repeal of the personal liberty
laws Of that State. "A large majority
of secessionists are elected to the Georgia
Convention. Fort Pulaski and Fort Jack
son are occupied by the Georgia State
troops, under command of the Governo
of the State. But for this action on the
part of the Governor, the Savannah pa.
pers say there would have been effected a
spontaneous uprising Of the people.
! The Florida Convention met at noon on
Thursday last. :. .Advices from Texas
state that GOVERNOR HoUsToN is prepa-
pairing actively for the defense of the from
tier against the Indians. .. Reports from
California say, the entire press of the
State now take serious views of the seces-
sion movement, and favor the preservat-
ion of the Union, if possible, by mutual
concessions. Allthe Republican papers
advocate the repeal of tide Personal Lib
erty bills of the Northern States. -. The
United States Arsenal at Mobile, Ala, was
taken possession of at daylight on Friday
morning by the Mobile troops without
resistance. The Arsenal contains six stand
ofarms, 800 barrels of powder and 300,-
900 rounds of musket cartridges, and
other munitions of war. "A notorious
abolitiorist of Massachusetts,, announces
that he will lecture on the gallows. The
Louisville Journal hopes he may get the
hang of the subject. -. AN immense I'M
ion meeting was held at Chicago on Mon
day night. Last Friday was generally
observed in the cities and large towns as
a day of fasting and prayer. New Or
leans has voted for secession by large
maicrity... Tuesday, the anniversary
of the battle of New Orleans, was cele-
brated throughout the country by the fir

says: "On inquiry at the proper quarter
it has been ascertained that before June
last, being found that the arms at the
several arsenals were not proportionately
distributed, and that the Southern arsen-
ais were quite deficient in these supplies,
q distribution was made for equalization
only, and for no other object. They
were principally drawn from the Spring
