Acknowledgement Message.

Gov. Jackson says the President, in
calling GU. troops to subdue the seeded
States, has threatened civil war, and las
acted unconstitu,ionally and illegally,
tending toward consolidated despotism.
While he evidently justi6es the action of
the rebels IN sect ding, ha dnas not re-
commend immediate secession, but holds
the following language: "Our interests
and sympathies are identical with those
of the slaveholding States, and necessari.
ly unite our destiny with theirs. The
similarity Of car institutions, our inter
csts, sympathies, habits, tastes, our CON-
mon origin, territorial contiguity, all
concur in pointing out our duty in re-
gard to the separation now taking place
between the States of the old Federal
Union" He further adds that Missouri
has no war to prosecute. 1t is not her
policy to make aggressons on any State
or people, but in the present state of the
country she would be faithless to her
duty, were she to hesitate in making the
most ample preparations for the protec-
ton Of her people against the aggressions
of assailants. II therefore recommend
an appropriation of sufficient sum of
money to place the State at the earliest
practicable moment in a complete state of
defence"

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, May i.
Hon James Phelps addressed the lar
gest meeting since the secession excite
ment He believed secession unconsti-
tutional, and believed in revolution only
when evils are SO grea. that civil war is
preferable. Missouri should take no part
in the war between the North and South

ton with her. He approved Jackson's
refusal to send troops to aid the Federal

lievei the military law of 1886 and 1887

states that men have been stationed at

that although at FIRST JEFF. Davis disap-
proved Of such proceeding, since the

Especial Dispatch to the n Y. Tribune.

WAsHrNGToS, May l, 1861.
The fact is at last demonstrated beyond
tho xhsd.w..s.e - DOUBT that iha rrlicy-a f
is war To this conclusion Lincoln has
urged his Cabinet, for ten days past
Messrs. Chase, Blair, and Cameron have
entered heart and soul into the plan, and
but for the wavering of Messrs Seward
and Welles on this point, the Cabiue:
would have been a unit Mr.. Welles
has received such letters, petitions, and
appeals from his own State as have insur.
ed his conversion to an anti-peace doc
trine, and finally Mr.. Seward has added
his undoubting assent to the necessity
of such a course.
Senator Wilson, with Judge Hoar, of
Massachusetts,, called upon Mr.. Lincoln
aud each member of the Cabinet to-day,
and urged upon them the imperative de-
mand of the country that active and pos
tive aggressive measures be adopted. -
Twice they saw Mr.. Lincoln, whose
whole nature seems bent upon rc.assert-
ing the dignity aud unity of this great
nation before the eyes of the world.
The country may rest assured that the
course of the Administration has been,
is, and will be, onward and upward. The
standard will suffer no degradation in its
hands. Nothing, in the end, will have
been lost, and all good men will agree in
concentrations upon the action of our
leaders.
THE MEANNEss OF JEFF. DAVIS
Jefferson Davis continues in the most
dishonorable manner to attempt to seduce
Federal officers from duty. Last week
he sent a generals commission in the
Confederate army to gentleman holding
a Captains rank in the U. S. army, and
whose experience in the Ordinance Blu
reau would render him most valuable to
the South. The commission was accom-
panied by a strong personal letter. Both
were returned.
THE COURSE AND MOTIVES OF THE AD-
MINISTRATIoN.
Allusion, in the hearing of the Presi-
dent, having been made by a gentleman
to day to attacks upon the course and mo-
tives Of the Administration, Mr.. Lincoln
smiled and said, "Well. sir, we can af-
ford to pass them by with the dying
words of tho Massachusetts, statesman,
we still live | am sure they don't
worry me any, and l reckon they don't
benefit the parties who write them"
The ACTION OF THE WAR DEPARTMENT.
1t is now acknowledged here, even by
those who at first objected to that course,
that the action of the War Department
10 the eight days following the riot at
Baltimore was judicious and necessary
to prepare the way for the intelligent
prosecution of the policy now determin-
ed on. Taken by surprise, not ready
with the overwhelming force properly |
equipped wherewith to cut direct path
the question was between circuitous
route with certainty Of arriving at the
and an abortive and murder
ous attempt at directness. ...

admitted both the right and the power
Of the government to bring troops
through Baltimore or the State, and to
take ary measures for the public safety,
which in the discretion Of the President
might be demanded, either by actual or
reasonably apprehended ext gencics.-
They expressed their belief that no i'm
mediate effort at secession or resistance
of the federal authorities, would be at.
tempted by the legislature CT State au.
thorities, and asked that in this view the
State should, as long as possible, be spar
ed the evils of military occupation, or
mere revengeful chas.isemep. for for.
mer transgressions.
The President replied tina. the sug-
gestions and representations should be
considered, but that he should now say
no more than that the public interest,
not spirit Of revenge, should actuate all
his measures.
