to some extent at least, responsible for the present alarming crisis in public affairs. If I am not greatly mistaken, Pennsylvania is one of the eleven non-slaveholding States which has passed statutes, now in full force and effect, designed to obstholding States, you will see that it is promptly restored to the rightful owner. Surely there is patriotism enough in Pennsylvania and the other non-slaveholding States to grant what the law has declared to be our due, especially when the preservatimy fellow-citizens of all parties, to suppose that "two hundred" of them in any part of the State are willing to go to Pennsylvania for a commander, even if they had determined to aid in the ungracious work of reducing a Southern sister State to the , under these circumstances, that any "two hundred" men in Virginia would seriously propose to import a commander from Pennsylvania? No! No! You have been cruelly hoaxed by some wag, who desired to play off a good joke at your expense You have
the aggression vital. Your remedies would not meet the case now. They would once, but not now--the case is chronic. We must declare war, and fight enemies. They, too, think we won't do either, and that is the first and worst evil to be met. Convince them that you will declare war against the substance of aggression — that you won't submit, and will fight. How! Form Committees of Safety and organize Minute corps at once, as in the Revolution. Snuff tyranny in the tainted breezes from Pennsylvania and Indiana, and begin revolution again, to maintain the Constitution and the Union, upon both of which Black Republicanism is marching. Take no disunion stand, and make no anti-constitutional movement. My family is too afflicted, and I am too needed at home, to go actively into this canvass. I despair of saving the Republic by speeches, or party organization, and am disgusted throughout with the conduct of this campaign. It has been a petty, partizan affair, with no patriotic or comp
eason, and that the South itself, as intimated by the Republican, is to perform that duty, we imagine they are calculating without their host. The subjoined table shows the penalties imposed in the several Northern disunion States on those officers or citizens who may aid in preserving the Constitution in fact by enforcing the Fugitive Slave Law, viz: States.Imprisonment.Fine.

Is the Federal Government going to put down nullification there, and will the North stand with drawn sword at its back, ready to sustain the laws, even if it has to desolate its own fires
Gov Letcher's letter. In another column will be found a reply of Gov. Letcher to an impertinent letter of a person in Pennsylvania, who seems anxious to add fuel to the fire of public excitement, and to attain some personal notoriety. The Governor has administered to him a severe chastisement, which he may consider an honor much above his deserts. This country editor goes a bowshot beyond the New York Tribune, for even that infamous paper protests against the use of force towards a seceding State.--The Governor truly says: "It will require prudence, wisdom, and patriotism, to avert the evils now impending over our country.--Criminative and inflammatory language can have no other effect than to exasperate and thus precipitate a result that is already imminent. In this hour of danger to the Union, it is the duty of patriots in all sections of our country to cultivate a kind, generous and conciliatory spirit one towards another."
