Tie country, but they are specially exempted from
all forced lOars. AS the contributors 10 this levy
were to be assigned certain interest 10 a Ia

foreigners insist that the levy is to be viewed as a
forced loar, from which they are exempted by

insist that it is tax to which foreigners
are as much liable as citizens. AZ is

Some hitle time since a firm at Charleston South
Carolina, applied f,r clearance to a vessel bound
fcr the coast Of Afca, " for the purpose OF takicg
"On boerd African emier@nts, in accordance with
"the United States Passenger law, aud of return
"ing With the same TO port in tho United
States" Mr. Secretary Cobb, to whom this ap-
plicston was referred by the Collector of the por!
of Charleston, refused to sanction it, on the gound
that if the Africans to be brought IN as Saves
or 10 be held to service or lsbor that proceeding
wss prohibited by acts of Congress, while it could
hardly be believed that they were to be brought in
as freemen, as their landing such was prohibited
10 Gil the slaveholjog ard in s2me of the Free
States ard was desired in n,ne.
The parties concerLed Rave not rested satisfied
with this decision, but have msde new application
in shape designed to evade in part at least, the
point of Secretary Cobbs objection, that application
being for clearance from the port of Charleston,
the vessel to return TO pJr in the Island of Cuba.
Aorg with this application Mf. L. q. c. Lsnsr,
who appears to act for the parties concerned, has
addressed letter to Mr. Secretary Cobb, which is
printed III the Charleston papers, severely cricisng
his former letter of refusal. Since it is not denied
that there are States Of the Union in which the
landing of free cOlored emigrants is legal, MIR.
Lamar insists that the ship was entitled to the
clearance e.sed for and thst the Secretary had no
right TO act as he did upon suspicion Of purpose
on tine part Of others to violate the Laws, especially
as it was proposed in writing that if the clearance
were granted and the vessel thus protected in TAX
pg IN her cargo on the coast of Africa tho Affcsns
brought back should be landed on the lcyee of New
Orleans for tho purpose Of testing the legality OF the
proceeding in the Courts OF tho United States.
Whether Mr.. Lamar proposed to dispute the con-
stutionalitY Of the acts of Congress prohibiting tie
Introduction of African slaves, or those of Louisiana
prohibiting the immigration into that State OF free
coloIed people, ne does not explain.
We shall zee what Mr Secretary Cobb will say
to this new application.
