did not consider that Congress had power
under the Constitution, TO prohibit slavery
ia Territory. never doubted that Con-
gress bad this power and | could never have
expressed any doubt on the subject.
You may recollect that have in CONVEX
sations VITA you often said that Congress,
having the power TO establish Territorial
government, mght in the exercise of a no.
lice power, prohibit slavery, although they
had no constitutional power TO institute it.

misapprehended you. drop this note tina,
IN the publication Of your speech YOU NAV
correct any mistake Of the stenograf,her on
this subject.
Very Truly Yours,
Hon. l.. Gasa. JoHN MCLEAN.
IL this letter we understand Judge MsLean
occupies precisely the same position as that
assumed by Henry Clay, in his speech on The
admission Of California, to-wit that there
is no authority under the Constitution TO
carry slaves or establish slavery in the Ter
ritories. And in that view all the slave laws
enacted in Kansas are in violation Of tie
Constitution Of the United States.
