WASHINGTON, Aug. >, 1859.
Col. JONI l.. pEyroS. Staunton, Va:
Ny Dear Sir You do me no more tha.
justice in your kind letter for which accept nv
thanks, in assuming that do not concur with
the Administration in their views respecting
the rights of naturalized citizens. as defined in
the lie Ccrc letter" which. i; i, proper 20 ob.
serve, have been since materially modified
Under our Constitution there can be no jus:
distinction between the right OF na;ive-born
and naturazcd citizens to claim the protection
OF our Government, at home and abroad. I'm.
less naturalization releases the person natural
lied from all obligations which lie owed to L,
native country, by virtue of his allegiance. it
leaves him in the sad prcdcamcnt OF owing al
lesiance To two countries. without receiving
protection from cither-a dilemma in which 10
American citizen should ever be placed.
Neither have you Inexperienced my opin-
ions in respect to the African slave trade That
question seriously disturbed the harmony Of
the Convention which framed the Federal Con.
sttution. Upon it the delegates divided into
two parties. under circumstances which. for
time, rendered harmonious acton hopeless
The one demanded the instant and uncondi.
tiona prohibition of the African slave trade. on
moral and religious grounds, while the other
insisted that it was legitimate commerce, in.
volving no other consideration than sound
public policy. which cac! State ought 10 be
permitted TO determine for itself, SO long as j;
was sanctioned by lis own laws Each party
stood firmly and rcSolntcly by its own position
until both became convinced that this vcxcd
question would break up the Convention, de-
stroy the Federal Mon, blot out the elories Of
,l,o lntin nd oil -
unless some fair and just compromise could be
formed on the common ground oi such mutual
concessions Is were Indispensable 10 the pre-
servaton Of their liberties, Union and indc-
pcndencc
Such compromise was effected and incor-
po,ate,l into the Constitution, By which 1t was
understood that the African slave trade might
continue as legitimate commerce in those
States whose laws sanctioned it until the year
1905 from and after which time Congress
might and would prohibit it forever, through.
out the dominion and limits of the United
States and pass all laws which might become
necessary to make such prohibition et!tctual.
The harmony of the Convention was restored,
and the Union saved By this compromise. with
out which the Constitution could never have.
been made.

all the other compromises OF the Constitu-
ton. and shall use my best forts to carry
each and all Of them into faithful execution,
in the sense and with The understanding i'll
which they were originally adopted. In ac-
cordance with this compromise, am irrecon-
c;ably opposed to the revival Of the African
slave trade, in any form and under any cir.
cumstances.
