KENTUCKY SENTIMENTS.
The Legislature of Kentucky have sent a number of resolutions to Congress to let them know what they may depend on in regard to that State, in these trying times. These backwoodsmen are vastly delighted with the Executive, his war for free trade and sailors rights, and above all with his Embargo, in which they express themselves in these words:-
"Resolved, That the restriction of our commerce lately enforced by an embargo, is wise, expedient and politic, and repays privation and self-denial, by preventing the supplies of the enemy from our resources. We cordially approve the adoption, and doubt the patriotism that hesitates to submit to the national sacrifice."
