Jackion't inaugural is almost exclusi'yelj devoted to diieutsion of Federal relatiotii. He tayi the destiny of the ilare-holding States is identical, and Missouri will best ooniult her own intent, and the interests of the whole country, by a timely declaration of her determination to stand by her sister slave holding States, in whose wrongs she participates and with whose institutions anl people she simphathizes. Missouri will remain in the Union so long aa there is hope of maintaining tho guarantees of the Constiiution.but if north' ern states are delirmined to prevent slave-holding states from being on an eqnal footing, by preventing the entranee of slaves into the territories, admitting no more slave states into the Union, and persisting in nullifying and perverting the Constitution in reference to slave property, then they' themselves practically abandon the Union and cannot expect the south to submit to such a government. The Governor opposes coercion; says the prospect of maintaining the government by force may load to a consolidated despotism, but never to union. Our gov eminent ia based upon justice and equali ty. Standing armies, mercenary soldiers subject to the will of the Executive, are not remedies for violated constitutions and laws. The first diop of blood shed in a war of aggression upon a soverign State wnl arouse appuit which will resul in the overthrow of the entire federal svs tern. The Governor has not abandoned a hope for the preservation of the Union.bu believes that by prudence and well direct cd efforts, an adjustment alike honorable to both sections may be effected. He op poses Congressional compromises, and says the South can rely only upon Con stitution guarantees, and to edict this end he advises calling a Southern Conven Hon to agree uptn such amendment to the Constitution as would secure their just rights, and submit them to the Northtrn Sla'es for action. ITo also advises culling a S'.a'e Convention, to ascertain (he will of the people on the subject. Turning to Slate mntters, the Governor advises a Ihourough re-oraa"uation of the militia, to rrpel invasions and protect property and citizens. He reconmends the legalization of sns- peusion of specie payment by the banks. MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE!. Detroit, Jan. 3. The Michigan Legisla ture met at Lansing yesterdsy.snd organized by electing Dexter Mussey, of Malcomb. Speaker. The retiring Governor delivered his annual message to both Houses. State affairs are represented in a prosperous con dition. He takes strong ground azainst the right of secession, charges iha President of the United Slates with misrepresentations ol the Northern Democratic press, as to tha ia tendons and designs of that party. Iu rela tion to the personal liberty laws of this Stato, he says: If they are unconstitutional, and in conflict with tha fugitive Blave law, they should be repealed; but he lays these ere tight, and speak the sentiment of the people, are m strict accordance with the Constitution and should not be repealed. Let them stand. This is no time for temid and veccilating co mcils, wbilo the cry of Treason U ringing in our ears. . The roessaga-of the incoming Governor will be delivered to day. MASSACIIUSETTSLEGISL.YTURE. Boston, Jan, 2. Mr. CUflin made a short address on accepting the office of President ot Ihe Senate, in which he said: "While we meet under circumstances aus. ptcious in our own State, a deep agitation pervades other parts of our oountry, causing every true patriot to feel the greatest anzioty. Disunion is attempted in some States, be. cause, as is elleged, laws have b"en passed in others, "ontrary to the Constitution of the United Stales. Massachusetts is acoused of unfaithful ness in this matter, in some of her enactments. Although she has always been ready to submit to judicial decision, and is still, she has ever jealously guarded the liberty of her citizens, and I truat ever will. We cannot falter row without disgrace and dishonor. Whatever action we may take, let us be careful of the rights of others, but faithful to our nwn trusts, that we may return' them to our Constitothn unimpaired. r ' Speaker Spelps, in hit remarks- to the llouso. uttered, substantially, tha same sen- timents1.

HAJ. ANDERSON BESIEGED AND COMMUNICATIONS CUT OFF. . Increased difficulties of Reinforcing him. A Conspiracy to taks ForcihU Possession of Washington. Wamixotox, Jan. 3. Intelligence wa, received last night that Fort Sumpter is now besieged; that all Major Anderson's communications are cut off; that Foit Moultrie bas been completly repaired, and Ibe guns remounted.and that everything is in readiness to open a fire on Major Anderson.New batteries are being'erected around him by the secessionists, and every day danger and difficulties of reinforciny him are increased. His frequent applications for reinforcements, and even the tears and prayers of bis wife having failed to move the President, he bas determined never again to renew bis request, but will perish, if he must, in the fort. Hit men have bound themselves with an oath to stand and perish with him. It is beyond a doubt that a combination is forming to lake forcible possession of the Govirnmett at Washington on or before the 4th of March, but the precise time is not yet determined. The above is from sources which leave no doubt of its reliability. Utentlemen censute the apparent inac tivity of the President; coutending that by availing himself of the counsels and services of Lieut. Gen. Scott all possibili ty of danger couldhave been averted, SECESSION SCr7pture. The telegraph relates that tho bust of Jons C.

And, aa if to cunplote the parellel, the scripture goes on: "Jupas, then, having received the sop, WENT wuedutilt out; and it was night."
