The most conservative of the border slave States have given expression by legislative 19 resolves to tliis universal sentiment of tlieir citizens. Wlien the Governor of New York insolently transmitted to the Legislature of Kentucky the tender made to the President of the State Militia to aid in Federal coercion, Kentucky, a Sta, te which in her noble devotion to the Union did not even sully her honor by considering the question of secession, hurled back in unanimous and defiant resolve the mess...age, that when- ever such aid was accepted for such a purpose, she would gird up her lions, take down her shield and resist it to tlie last extremity. Tennessee, by an overwhelming majority, declared her devoted allegiance to the Union, refusing to call a Conven- tion even to consider the question of secession ; yet, by legisla- tive action, resolved that federal coercion must and will unite the South as one man in opposition to a policy so " cruel, inhu- man, and unjust. " Missouri, in whose bosom the beneficent seed of emancipation is working slowly, but ineradicably for her deliverance, with unparalleled unanimity expresses her devotion to the Union, her abhorrence of secession, but her inexorable determination if coercion is attempted to give all that she has of wealth, of strength, of life, and blood, in defense of her Southern brethren.
