From the Richmond I).patca, lc. 9. Gov. Letcher's message wa read in the Legislature jesterday. Not having rexjm to publish the whole of it, we make the following synopsis of ita contents: Thia war has now been in progress nearly three )ears. Whatever ol respect, or confidence, or afffction existed at the commencement of our trouble, has been effectually crushed and forever de-troved. There is not even the shadow of a possibility that respect can be revived, or confidence restored, or affection renewed. The chain that bound u together has been broken, .and can never be reunited the roignificent structure reared by our wise and patriotic forefathers has fallen into ruins, and itc.au reifer be reconstructed. The Union they formed, the government they established, bat e had their allotttd time, and are now nuadered with the things that are i;one. A people imbued with sound principles nnd animated by a proper spirit, who li tte us with the in tensity which the northern people have exhibited, and who know that we deleft them, would not desire a longer alliance. Honor, justice, propriety, every consideration that should influence good and patriotic men. show the necessity of our eternal reparation. It is aid we have some men among us who are the advocates ol what they call an honorable peue, which, when properly interpreted, mean nothing more nor kvs than 9iibmieion. It is pleasant to know that the uumber of such men is email; but whether large or small. -puru them as you would the viper. Men who preach peace under precnt cireuui.-tanccs aic f.ilo to ua and to the Confederacy. It is time enough to peak of an honorable peace when Lincoln shall have withdrawn hia armie from our soil. So far we have accomplished all, nay, more than we could reasonably have anticipated. We have fin army in the held well appointed and weil equipped, unsurpad in spirit, uuequikd in devot'on to the cause, inured to service, disciplined, true and courageous Our people, old and joui), m ile and female, are of one mind in their hatred of the Yankees and in their determination to separate from them. Can such a people be brought under a tyrant's power, and be lorced t eubrnit to a tyrant's exactions? Can uch a people be conquered and subjugated? Never! Men who had no right to ask or expect exemp lion from ac.ive service in the field, are found comfortably enscon-ced in the Couirnis.virv or Quarlermaster's Departments, or in the lying-io.-hospit ih. prepared by the nitre and mining bureau, which has scattered its operations over the whole of the State. All these places could be filled, with infinitely more advantage nnd profit to the Confederacy, by men of ap;e, experience, and niatuie judgment, who are bcond th military age and unfit tor r-ervice. Voung men, ia too in -my in-dances hold such positions, and justice denitnd that they should be in their appropriate places in the field. The tact that thoe men are kej! in such positions, lor w hich they posse-s no superior qualifications over hunJreds of others exempt from military duty by reason of Bge or physical disability operate prejudicial! v to the public interest and sows the fevdi ofdisscusion and strife which will s. Miner or liter produce a harvest of ini-ehief. These mil be regarded by some as unimportant matters, but still they nr worthy of cor ' deration and it is hoped will ie speedily ehan ;t-d and coircctcid. The public intn et detnands this, .and what r lie j-ublic inrercs dem mds no representative ot the pt-ople should be :lrid to execute. The m inner in 'vhich the Impressment svstem has bot n cn fueled has nioduvel incalculable 1 mi'chitf. The n rents e!ectel hae too fre ! quently been men who posseted neither manner nor b.iine? qualificarions. and the lesuit ha been 'diat they ham c-Medin the minds of weilincanii) men trre it di.vs.itisf ictnii witli the Con federate govctnmeut. If men of age, experience and pru-ticd judgment were selected t fill those p sitior.. the ends which the government h in : view would be accomplished, and no prejudice in the public mind wou'd be creited. Young and ! iueaperienced hands have too tften been charged I with the execution of this branch of business, j and. from 11 I have learned. I am s ltisfied that they hare not un frequently be-n ent out without; the necessary written iii'tructi u, and the min I., m. I I . V. . ! - j , . . ; . . i. . i I nits lit uitn lut'ii uuun lime nrrii pcriormeu ha created the utmost dissatisfaction. Legislation is required for the rrctection of cur people against the impositions practised by impre-?roert otlicers and per-vns i l iiaai'ig to be such, and I trust it will be had at this session. Reunion and reconstruction are but synonyms for aubmission. The man who can i-ent to reunion or reconstruction ia uuworthy to enjoy the blessings of l.berty and Ireo principles, aa 1 deserves to sutfcr the horror? ot suljug.it ion at the hand? of our vandal enemies. Tr.ey have already proclaimed the pur;o-e to trip u of all o ir ive property ; and as far as this purpo-e ct'ul l be accomplished by them they luve re moved it. tn common with every other spe- ies of propcrtr.

people are as thoroughly unirl and determioM as we are, and it is proper to look the matter aternlv in the face, and uitte our -reparations to meet it with equal ßrmtes nrxl oeciaion. No popI ever lo-t anything by properly estimitm the power und strength of an adversary. We are thus better prepared to maintain oar rights, and we can doit with greater suecea and effect. Many a battle has been lost, because the power arid r umber and preparations of the enemy were underestimated. It is always wi?e to look danger fully in the face, and meet it'Calmly, with spirit and decHion. enercT and course Pru denre, industry, jujgrner.t and patriotism, will sjre us and the cause, and est blisli inJrpecdcnce ujxTi a firm t.isi.-. Encourage a proper pirit; inculcate harmosT, unity and conciliation, and all will be well. Victory will rrown our efforts, and the end wi'l be liberty, independence, and the establi.-hment of a free Government, thnt will injure happiucsa to our people and prosDerity to our country. Wheu this war commenced I was opposed to the substitute system, and my opinion was well known. But, in opposition to my wishes and view, it was adopted by the State aud Confederate authorities Substitutes have been tenderel and accented for thre yenr, under the laws of both Stcte and Confederacy, and the policy having been established, whether right or wrong, it ia now too late to controvert it. Under the action of both governments it became a binding and subitinp contract, and as uch should be respected and ib-erved. Contracts between governments and individuals should at all limes be held nacred and inviolable. No government which violates them can lonr maintain 'ts character for honor and integrity. When tl.c-ie are forfeited by a government, the public coafidence in it is at an end. Many of the-e substitutions, as I understand, arc now disregarded and fet nside, notwithstanding the fact that the parties have paid large ?um to obtain the men who are to fill their places. This is done upxm the idea that the States had no rii;ht or authority to receive substitutes even be fore the troops were turned over to the Confederate authorities. If such be the doctrine. I enter my protest against it, and leave it to the part'es to controvert the question before the courts. There the applications will receive .a bearing, and will, I have no doubt, be fairly ard justly decided. I recommend the subject to your consideration. I am in favor of every man doing; his duty in this war, but at the same time I arr cqua!! in favor of the inviolability ol contracts. When the government makes an agreement with a party, good faith requires that it diould respect it and carry it out. No government vt loch shows a disregard of its voluntarily-incurred obligations can hope to prosper. Honestv, fair deal iug.and a ftrict compliince with obligations as Hire confidence, and unite the people firmly to the povernrneut. 1 trut, therefore, that the cot. script bureau will give to this question the mot serious consideration before further steps ar taken. Look at the picture on all f ides, and it presenthopeful and encouraging features. 1 we are only true to ourselves, to the cause, and to the country, we cannot be overthrown. Is there a man who doubt the results of the struggle? If there beuch iu one he is a traitor at heart, who deserve? to be nudthematixed and east out from a mon l; us No State has beeu more loyal, more fsithful, more devoted. None has contributed more liberally in means and men none hai bared hei brätst more boldly or defiintly to the storm and uone h s t-Ci.t her "reapers to the harvest of death" with more self-sacrificing devotion than the Commonwealth of Virginia. She en listed for the war after full consideration and with a just appreciation of all the consequences that were to follow the separation, and die will be true to the end. She will never sue for peace, because die did not bring on lie war. She will never propose for compromise, because hho struggles only for her rights, her libeify, and her independence. 5ho will, as becomes the mother of State, stand up bo!dy, and hurl scorn and defi.incc in the lace of her foes until they consent to her terms. She will never consent to a treatv of peace which dismembers her own territory, nor w will she com-ent to a treaty winch does not recognize fully the Unnfederacy. She knows what is due to the Cotifedency, and her duty will be per formed with scrupulous fidelity. Kneeling around the altar of the country, her sons will swear allegiance to her and fidelity to theConfed eratc government . and their prayers wil! ascend to heaicn for blessing? on Virginia und the Southern Conlederacv. Thanks to the Ruler of the Universe for His blc.s.-iiigs conferred upon us with euch liberality, for the-uccess which have attended our arm-, tor the unitv and harmony of our people, and for the Fpirit and courage with which He has nerved them for this contest.
