II would be doing injustice to respectable class
ssG the citizens Of the non-saveholding States to
suppose that the opposition in those States to the
Fugitive Slave Law, enacted at the late session of
Congress, is altogether factious, sectional or ma
iignant. 1t is, on the contrary, in many ndividu-
ais in different parts of the country, conscientious,
and so far as it is adverse to the erecution of the
law, the fruit Of hasty impressions and impulsve
Seeiings, which easily traced to want of know
ledge OF, or of reflection upon, the history and
1heory Of the Constitution of the Union, and of the
legislation under it twhich-has been legally adjudged
by the highest tribunals of the country TO be con-
Eormable TO that instrument.
La this view of the subject, we have thought that
such readers Of this paper-and we doubt not that
taere are some such-as err from want of informa.
sion on this subject would derive much light in
regard to it from the perusal of the following series
Of essays, which have lately appeared in highly
respectable journal Of the city of Boston. They
arc characterized by depth Of research and an
ability which are set off to the best advantage by
ahe spirit of candor and the genuine patriotism
which run through them. We commend them to
dispassionate perusal.
