Message or the Govksnor or Ken
tucky. Gorernor Magoffin, of Kentucky,
in his annual Mossscre' to the Kentuck
jLegislaturo, (we lesru through the Petera
jbtirg Kxpress,) takes stronu pro-slavery
ground, lie dnclares) that Kentucky will
stand by the Union asking nothing she
could not concede. She will keep herprea
etit ttntui upon the slavers o'lention. Sh
(will kiicp the faifo and stand by its settle- '
mem, uie laws, tue constitution, and the
courts. She will stand by the repeal of
tho Missouri restriction j she will stand by
the fugitive slave law aud the Drtd Scott
decision. Rhe will always denounce the
doctrines of tho Republican party, and the
invasion at Harper a Ferry, and ever be
found in defence of the rights of tho South.
As a means of precaution he recommends a
tsx on peddlers, a law to prevent free color
ed persons from coming into Kentucky
from other States, and an appropriation to
enable that sort of population to emigrate,
not agBin to return ; a re organization of
tbe militia is urgently recommended.
