The Message Of Gov. stewart Of
Missouri.
ST. LouIs, Jan. 3.

ST. LouIs, Jan. 3.
Gov. Stewards message was read in
the Legislature to-day. After reviewing
the rise and progress Of the abolition sad
Republican parties, and stating the result
of their success, the Governor says =.
Missouri occupies position in regard a.
these troubles that should make her voi'
potent in the councils of the nation.-
With scarcely disunionist per so with
her borders, she is still determined 70 4
nand and maintain her rights at ever
hazard. She loves the Union whilst
protector Of equal rights, but will despi'.
it if it is an instrument Of wrong. Sh'
came into the Union upon a compromiss
and is willing tn hide 10y a lair comprou
ise still; not such ephcmeral contracts =
a,e enacted by Congress to-day and re
pealed tomorrow, but a compromise a
suring all just rights Of States, aud agree
to in solemn convention OF all the parth
interested. Missouri has right to spea
on the subject because SHE has suffered
having probably lost as much in the pa
few years in the abduction of slaves
all the rest of the southern States
Speaking of secession the Governor de-
precates the action of South Corolna
aud says: Our people would feel more
sympathy with the movement had !,
originated amongst those who, like our
selves, had suffered severe loss and con
slant annoyance from the interference
and the depredatons or outsiders Mi,
souri, will hold to the Union 40 long asi
is worth an effort to preserve II. Sh,
cannot be frightened by past unirendly
legislation of the North, or dragooned
into secession by restrictive legislation Of
the extreme South The Governor de-
nies the right of voluntary secession, aud
says it would be utterly destructive OF
every principle on which the national
faith is founded, and appeals to the gen.
eral conservative masses of the people to
put down selfish and designing politicians
and avert the threatening evils; aud closes
with a strong recommendation to adopt
all proper measures for our rights, yet
protests against hasty and unwise action,
and records his unalterablc devotion to
the Union so long as it can be made the
protector of equal right.
The Governor then passes to state
matters, and shows the finances to be in
prosperous condition. He recommends
q revision of the military laws; advises
arming the militia for purposes of pro-
lection against invasion; refers to the
condition of the different railroads; aud
recommends the Legislature to relieve
the banks from the penalties incurred by
the temporary suspension of specie pay

A JUDICIAL DECISION.

A fellow named Donks, was lately
tried at Yuba City for entering miners
tent aud seizing a bag Of gold dust,
valued at eighty -four dollars The testi-
nlony showed that he had been employed
there, and knew exactly where the owner
kept his dust; that on the night Of Octo'
bcr 10Th, he cut Slit in the tent, reached
in, took the bag, and then ran Off
Jim Butler the principal witness, tisti-
fed that he saw the hole cut, saw the
man reach in, and heard him run away.
81 put for him at once" continued the
witness, 90 but when / cotched him l
didn't find Bills bag, but it was found
afterwards where he had thrown it.
Counsel for the prisoner. - How far
did he get in when hs took the dust?
Buller-Well he was stoopin' over
about half in, l should say.
Counsel. - May it please your honor,
the indictment isn't sustained, and | shall
demand an acquittal on direction of the
court. The prisoner is on trial for en-
tering dwelling in the night time, with
intent to steal. The testimony is clear,
that he made an opening through which
lie protruded himself about half way,
and stretching out his arms, committed
the theft. But the indictment charges
that he actually entered the tent or
dwelling. Now, your honor, can a man
enter house, when only one half is in,
and the other half out?

AS Massachusetts, in 1S45 declared
herself out Of the Union, and as she has
never been rc.annexed, we are willing
that she take Lincoln and Hamlin out ol

A CHAPTER ON NIGGERs. = The cor
poratc name Of Cleveland" should be
changed to Nigger Town" II is now
but little else Six days in the week the
Black Republican politicians talk nigger
in the streets, aud on the seventh day the
Ministers take up the doleful theme in
their pulpitS, and descant on God and
our African bother. Democrats have
got done going to church since Christ
and him cruci6ed has ceased to be
preached, and party abuse in ceaseless
flood emanates from those "Cowardly
Castles" where reioinders are not allowed.
The Sabbath Schools aud the Free
Schools are nurseries for this negro-mania
and the f" Literary Lectures" so called,
are but little else than Abolition stump
speeches, paid for by suffering citizens at
two shillings per head. For twenty
wears we have been an attendant upon
these Lectures, and during oil that time
never have heard, or heard Of, Deufo-
cratic Lecture giving offense TO the most
fastidous Republican by imposing his
political or partizan views upon a pro-
lniscuous auditory; while the Republican
Lecturers land they are as ten to one Of
the Democratic, rant Republicanism
continually.
Thus it is that the "Nigger" is stuffed
down our throsts wherever we 90 and
whatever we do morning, noon and night,
in season and ont of season. At the fast
and at the feast, on thanksgiving day,
and on festive occasions, this savory gen
tlemcn is toasted, roasted, prayed,
preached; hummed, drummed the inces-
SAINT talk aud tho all pervading thought
of men and monkeys, saints, and sinners.
We have niger myaors, nigger minis
ters, nigger marshals, nigger constables,
nigger Judges, niggcr sheriffs, nigger
iuries some white men have niggcr
wives and some white women have Mig
ger babies. The African enters into all
our social, moral, religious and political
relations. We write for him, fight for
him, sing for him, sup with him, sleep
with him. He is the SINE qua non to posi-.
ton and preierment here on eatth, and
hopes of Heaven in the world to come.
He is Alpha and he is Omega, the begin
ming and the end, world without end

E1 The following 10 attributed to
the celebrated Rowland Hill = Two
strangers who were passing the church
when he was preaching, entered, walked
up the aisle, aud finding no seat, stood for
awhile aud listened to the sermon. Pres
emily they turned to walk out Before
they reached the door tho preacher said:
But | will tell you . story" This
arrested the strangers and they paused,
turned again aud listened: "Oncc there
was man. said the speaker, "who said
that if he had all the axes in the world
into one, and all the trees in the world
into one, and he could WELD the axe and
cut down the tree, he would make it into
one whip to thrash the men who turn
their backs upon the Gospel, and stop t.

Message of the Governor OF Penn
sylvaui:a.

lldl liSOul 8lij dh'
The Governors message was delivered
to the Legislature to day. He declares
the doctrine of secession erroneous. The
Constitution is something more than a
mere compact. Organized resistance to
the Federal Government is rebcllion--it
successful, it may be purged by the crime
of revolution; if unsuccessful, the persons
may be executed as traitors Bnt while
denying the right Of a State to absove
its citizens from allegiance to the FEEDER
al Government, nevertheless it is proper
that we carefully and candidly examine
the reasons alleged, and if they are well
founded, they should be unhesitatingly
removed, and reperation for the past, and
security for the future secured, for gov
ernment created by the people, should
never do injustice to any of its citizens.
Pennsylvania being included in the States
alleged to have refused compliance with
the Fugitive Slave law, he unhesitatng-
ly AYERS that the State has been almost
invariable influenced by high regard
for the rights of her sister States. After
examining the present State laws, he
says there is nothing to prevent the re-
moval of the act of 1926, leaving to the
claimant right to seek for remedy
under the State OF Federal laws He
recommends that the consent OF the State
be given to the Master while sojourning
in or passing through Pennsylvanis, to
retain the services of the slave.
III ha a..tt nf ha
Missouri Compromise, and that the line
be extended to California, thereby amend.
ing the Constitution. lie recommends
the Legislature to instruct our Repre-
sentatives in Congress to support such
an amendment, to be submitted to the
State Conventions for rati6cations for
ratification, and if Congress fails to pro.
pose it, let it emanatc from the people.
lie closed by declaring that Pennsyl-
vania is devoted to the Union, and will
.ollow the stars and stripes through every
peril. He adds
"But before assuming the responsible
ties that are foreshadowed, it is the sol
emn duty of Pennsylvania to remove ev-
cry just cause Of complaint, so that she
can stand before high Heaven without
fear aud without reproacb, and then she
is ready to devote her lives and fortunes
to the best form of government ever de-
vised by the wisdom of man. Though a
dark cloud now rests upon the Union, my
hopes and affections still cling to it. My
prayer is, that He who orders the dss-
TIMES Of nations, when He shall leave us
for our sins, will again have mercy upon
us, and bind us in tighter, in stronger
and more hallowed bonds of fraternity
so that the Union may remain unbroken
throughout all future time.
