V 8LAVEUI IX KKMICKY. The certnin luooeM nf the aiiieiidnient to tlio Constitiitiiin alinlisliing slavery at tlio moot- nif nf the present Congress is coticeilfil. The Louisville Journal prints ooiiitiiiiiiicatiun from a writer whom it ayi win a Icailmg mp ptirlur nf MoOlellan at the Into clcot nii, rec ooiiiincnilinif Kentucky to full into tlio current aim nilupt the I'restdeot'i ij itern of cnnineii sntci) emanoipatinii as the only means left tn save the ilurehalderi from ruin. The Journal comments on thia communication as follows " As fur as e are oonoerneil, we Imro, from Mie inception or file rebellion, thntijrln, and fifty thousand times said, more than three years ago. mat secession would result in the i-xtorm iitalinn of Southern slavery. We have un derstood and asserted from the first tlmt the re bellion, if protracted, would involve tlio libera tion nl' all the millions of tha Southern slaves. while at the same tiino we have endeavored to give some idea of the deplorable aud awful re sults nf soon a condition of thing's. We have never doalited that if the anti-slavery Consti tution of Kentrjoky, so powerfully advocated by Henry Clay many years ago, had been adopted, our State would amy be more prosper ous, wealthy and happy than it is. Hut Mr. Clay was defeated and a slvcry Constitution adopted. Slavery exists in Kentucky by her Constitution and ber laws. We object to any mode of unconstitutional emancipation, and we have nA doubt that the progress of our armies, whether fur good or for evil, has done fur morn against the institution than anv Presidential proclamation can possibly do. The States in rebellion knew thatther t'lidunrfered their prop. erty of all kinds by revolt, hut Kentucky is loyiil and ought not to be treated ns if she were not fit to be trusted. Wo believe that many of her people have favored eiiiaiioipiilion foryenrs. but when our new Constitution mis adapted the mode nf future iiuiemlineiit was u restricted that, were I lie people to desire n Con vention now, it could nut be called until the rear Irjliy.
