dopted on the 12th inst, by the Black Republican Legislature of that State. Being read by the Clerk, they were afterwards, on motion, laid on the table by a vote of 59 to 57. Gov. Letcher's message reads as follows: Executive Department, January 21, 1861. Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Delegates: I have received from His Excellency, Wm. Dennison, Governor of the State of Ohio, a communication enclosing resolutions passed by the General Assembly of that State on the 12th inst. These resolutions express a desire for the preservation of the Union. To give effect to this patriotic desire, they tender to the President of the United States "the entire power and resources of the State of Ohio," to be employed in the coercion and subjugation of the seceding States, as they express it, in "the maintenance of the Constitution and laws of the General Government, by whomsoever administered." Such a policy can never accomplish the object desired. Such resolutions

made to adjust the controversy. The General Assembly of Virginia having expressed their opinion on the doctrine of coercion with the most gratifying unanimity, such resolutions as are now communicated can be regarded in no other light than a threat against all those States which recognize the doctrine of secession. I am happy to assure you, however, that in this instance no serious apprehensions need be entertained, as Governor Dennison states, in his last annual message, (of date Jan. 7, 1861,) that "the organized militia of the State numbers at present a little less than twelve hundred men. They are uniformed, armed and equipped, and are, for the most part, in a commendable state of discipline." As to arms, he says, "it appears that the State has received 34,962 muskets and rifles, and has but about 6,000 at her present command. Of 11,632 cavalry pistols, but 722 remain. Of 272 sables, about forty are supposed to be recoverable. Of 46 brass cannon, more than three-fourths

Letcher, which was accompanied by a letter from the Governor of Ohio, transmitting certain coercion resolutions adopted on the 12th inst, by the Black Republican Legislature of that State. Being read by the Clerk, they were afterwards, on motion, laid on the table by a vote of 59 to 57. Gov. Letcher's message reads as follows: Executive Department, January 21, 1861.

estored them to serviceable condition." The fifth resolution declares "that it is the will and purpose of the people of Ohio to fulfill, in good faith, all their obligations under the Constitution of the United States, according to the spirit and intent thereof." This is a just sentiment, and the purpose expressed cannot be too highly commended. It would, however, have been more strongly appreciated if the General Assembly had rebuked the Governor of Ohio for his refusal to surrender Owen Brown and Francis J. Merriam, when demanded by the authorities of this Commonwealth, as fugitives from justice. I would suggest the propriety of such a rebuke from the General Assembly of the State of Ohio at its present session. Such a rebuke would furnish a proper sequel to this resolution. I would further suggest that as "no enactment of the State of Ohio has clothed the Governor with authority to surrender to another State fugitives from its justice," seeking refuge in Ohio, it would be w
