The Citizenship of the Negro.

To the able article in the Boston Lar Report
err upon the bred Scott case, Charles i. Adams
furnished an appendix, calling attention to the
remarkable fact that three of the first five Presi
dents treated negroes as citizens i'll their ncgo
tiations with Great Britain concerning one OF
the prominent difficulties leading to the war OF
1912. We quote portion:
Since that part of the foregoing review which
relates to the citizenship of free negroes was
printed, our attention has been directed to the
case OF the seamen taken out of the American
frlgate Chesapeake, by the British ship of war
Leopard in 1897, which was the beginning of
the difficulty between the United States and
Great Britain, that ultimately led to the war OF
1872 The Committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives, to whom the subject was referred, re-
ported to the House, that it has been incontest-
IDLY proven, as the accompanying printed docu'
ment No. : will show, that three men taken
(naming them) are citizens OF the United
States" BY the document referred to- 1t ap-
pears that two % these men were colored, one Of
them the child of a female slave and who him.
self had formerly been held as a slave. See re-
port of the Committee, PIP, 3l-S6, 43, a., 40
President Jefferson, in his proclamation inter
dieting our harbor and waters to British armed
vessels, issued Immediately after the outrage
said-"That no circumstance might be wanting
to mark its character, it had been previously as
certaned that the seamen demanded, were ma
tives of the United States" p. 6. This procla-
nation was cOuntersigned by Mr.. Madison the
Secretary of State.
"Mr. Madison, in his letter to Mr.. Monroe
then minister of the United States a. London
instructing him to demand reparation of the
British government, dwells upon the tact that
the men were citizens of the United States; Mr.
Monroe i'll his formal demand upon the British
government, said-I have the honor to trans
nit YOU documents which will, presume salts
fy you that they were American citizens Cor
respondence between Mr.. Madison, and Mr.
Monroe and Mr. Canning, on the subject of the
attack on the Chesapeake, PIP. 6, 10, 81, AL
the above references are to the public documents
printed by order of the House of Representatives
at the first session Of the tenth Congress. II
thus appears not only that three of the first five
Presidents of the United States, two of then
men who had taken as great part as any in
framing our national policy and system OF gov
eminent, spoke of colored men as being citizens
of the United States; but that government made
the defence of their rights as citizens cause Tor
putting the nation in hostile attitude towards
foreign power"
