Kentucky.

We give lengthy extracts from Northern papers to-day, and full telegraphic news.

The main feature of the telegraphic intelligence is that from Kentucky. Gradually is the plot thickening in that powerful State.--The fifth act of her present drama is soon to be brought on. The tyrant at Washington will not allow it to be deferred. Indeed, his existence to seize the power he aspires to hurries him with the madness which always characterizes tyrants in the plays, to conclusion which he cannot permit longer to be postponed. He therefore presses His emissaries are at work endeavoring to lay the toils about her. She crows to easy at the plots and schemes to manacle and hold her down, as they are gradually developed. Her people grow excited, and prominent men are called on to allay the monthly. It is said that nothing can clamber but the withdrawal of the soldiers of lincoln. They thereupon withdrew apace just at the physician sometimes hides behind the for a time to quiet the alarm of the infant at his presence. By and bye he comes forth and prescribes the inevitable media

The people of Kentucky cannot much longer state an issue which must come upon them. The cop cannot be thrust away. Submit or resist — help Lincoln or fight him--one or the other, they must do. The people are evidently feeling the commotion preceding the earthquake that is near at hand. They manies "excitement" They don't like "arms" to be sent into the State by Lincoln. Some localities complain and show signs of resistance Lincoln's men try others less excitation more melined to slavery. But the mutting is rather on the increase. Even Mr den deems it wise to recommend that the camp of Lincoln submissionists at Crab be broken up. Two parties arise among the submissionists--one for backing up Lincoln entirely, and the other only so far as to have no fighting in Kentucky. We rather think that the last will fight Lincoln himself if he forces them to fight.

It is plain that a large portion of the people of Kentucky are growing more and more reserve under the insults and oppressions of Lincoln. Their numbers, too, are growing. Civil was on open and decided resistance to him must soon exist in Kentucky. Whatever it be we never yet doubted that the Ohio will be the better of the Southern Confederacy.
