Opinion Of Attorney General Bates on
|I Colored Citizenship.

The important opinion Of Attorney
General Bates on the question whether
colored persons can be citizens of the
United States. written in reply to an
official inquiry of Secretary Chase, predi-
Gated on the detention Of the schooner
Elizeheth and Margaret by the revenue
cutter, because commanded by a colored
man, covers twenty seven pages, and ar.
gues the question with signal ability from
the beginning Of our national history TO
the present time, overiurning completely
the Dred Scott decision. He says as 10
voting and holding Office, as that privilege
is not essential to citizenship, so the de-
privation Of It by lawis not deprivation
Of citizenship, no more so In case OF ne
gro Than in the case of while woman
or child also, that so far as tho Consti-
tuition IS concerned, Il is naked assump.
ton to say colored persons are incapable
Of being citizens OF the United States, be
cause the Constitution contains not one
word on the subject. The exclusion, II il
exists at all, must rest upon some funda.
mental principle which, in the nature Of
things, is so inconsistent with citizenship
that the two cannot exist in the same per.
son. Or the contrary, there is not, ant
never has been, nation in Chrstendon
does not regard such an idea with incre
dnlity,if not disgust. There can be moth
ing In the mere color TO disqualify a per
son from rendering true allegiance 10 hi
native country, and demanding projection
from that country where true allegiance
ard protection constitute the sum total o
the duties and rights Of natural born c'ti
zens OF the United States. AS 10 the al
legged degradation Of the African race ey
cry argument against the right Of citizen
ship based on that, applies equally to de
graded individuals Of the white race, ant
concludes as follows: And now urol
the whole matter | give il as my opinion

citizens Of tho United States, and il other
wise quali6ed,are compe tent, according Il
the acts of Congress, to bo n master Of

Gen. Buffers Opinion of Slavery and
its Relation to the War

Gen. Butler, in his farewell address to
tho people Of Now Orleans, issned on tho
oyo OF bis departure for the North, takes
what may be regarded as the most radical
ground upon the question of Slavery. He
speaks Of Slavery as an "institution cursed
of God,' and as the zone thing that now
separates tho people o. tho South from tho
Government. In reading bis emphatic,
truthful and eloquent language, we cannot
but ~onder that one who now sees the path
of duty so clearly, voted, In 1860, for tho
traitor Brecknridge, and. up to the break-
ing out ofthe Rebellion. ranked among tho
most ultra supporters of the causo of Sla-
very, and bitter opponents OF Abolition. in
tho North. Truly. very great and beue-
fetal change has boon wrought in his mind
by the logic of events. When such men as
Ben Butler arc convinced that Slavery Il

one who has shown his devotion TO his

who in these words can have neither hope

all the solemnity OF an appeal to Heaven
to bear me witness, that such are the views
forced upon me by experience.
