IMPORTANT OPINION.

We learn that q question has peen SUP
,;,,s1 70 sbe Attorney General ofthe Uni
tod states. whether free persons OF color
are. in the State of Virginia, citizens oil the
ro;,sd States within the intent and mean
mo of the acts of Congress regulating the
foreign and coasting trade, SO as to quail
fy them for owning or commanding YES
sells, and that the Attorney General mas
xiven il as his opinion that free persons OF
eolor in Virginia cannot De considered as
citizens of the United States, and that
therefore, such persons cannot, within the
;ntent and meaning OF the acts referred to,
own or command vessels.
Tbi, is an important fact, from the OPP
Grafton of which we foresee much emoar-
ra,sment; for as the decision OF the A. G.
cannot apply to free persons OF color IN
thos. states where they are admitted to
citizenship. a vessel may be lawfully COM
,o,nded by free colored person to trade
f-om New York to Philadelphia, or from
a,v one port to another, under the Jurls-
5iction Of States acknowledging such per-
SON, as citizens, and yet be prohibited
from going from any sech port TO one
where no such acknowledgment exists
A vessel for example coming from New
York. in command ola colored person,
with lawful papers and regular clearance,
would not be permitted to entry, we pre-
sume, in port in Virgins, or II per-
,nitted. it must be as foreign vessel,
and paying tonnage as such.-And again
If free colored person owning yes
sell, wished to sell her, how is he to make
,he transfer Not beng owned by cit'.
zen ofthe United States, NO papers could
be taken out for her; for the purpose OF
navigation, therefore, she would be use
less. 1t is we'll that Congress is about to
meet, as some legislation is certainly re
uuired to unravel and adjust tae perpiex-.
tiles with which this conflicting STATE OIL
things ispregnant.
