Bowe - I iiotiee a remark in your ast paper respecling Mr. Hale's views of ilie power of the Federal Government over the Domeslic Slave Traáe, which I hink uninlentionally does him injuslice, int! also the Conventlon that nominated tiim. From personal communicat on with Mr. H., I know thnt he fully believes in the entire power of the government to supprpss the slave trade by sea, to the e.tent of all Tis resources, and that the highest obligations vest on ils administrators and on the people to sre tliis done.- - _í r. Hale nlso hrliewsthc Federal cours have power to invalídate conlracls busec on property in inen; and this, he thinks, would essentially destroy the s'ave trade. He dues hot deny the power of the government summarily to abolish the trade wherever and however carried on between the States; but, not havitig fullv examined the absolute power of Congrcss over the trade ly and, such having been his engagements since he took up the snl'jfct, he is not quite prepared 10 coramit himself before the country at this moment bevond the positions specified. - He thinks it not unlikoly, however, that farther invesligation will remove his rcmaining dnubts on this point. When we look o' the diversity of views prevniüng amongour aliest men respecting the detail of som-s of these legal questions, and also thftr magnitude and the jifficullies involved in them, Mr. Hale's ïrudenCPi indepcndenco and sinccriiy are commended ty th frank exnression if his present views. True msn,who on all the main questions agree, vviü r.ot pil nke precisely rhe same views of every oint invo'.ved in our great cause. And t will be quite obvious that the slavo trude woulti be essentially destroyed were it prohibited by sea, where the jrenter part of it is carried on, and all contra:ts subject tu the cognizance of the federal courtij nullificd. it vvould be dead. Liberty men if they would unite the country against s'.avpry, must be vcry tolerant whre the substance oftheir eau te is not involved. Mr. Hale nssured nis and ntliers, in answer to particular inquirió?, that with the slight exception alluded lo, he entirely agrecd vvith all the principies and mensures of the Liberty narly. Yours truiy,
