IIuxtixgtox, District Judge of the United States for the District of Indiana The undersigned members of the Bar" of the Circuit Court of the United Slates, having heard, with great pleasure, the charge Just delivered to the Grand Jury, on the subject of the Fugitive Stave Law, reftpectfauy ask of your honor, a ropy of that part of the charge for publication, believing that it reflects truly the semimcnts of h large majontty of the people of the State of Indiana. , Yours, etc., O.H.Smith, Cbahlej Dewet, Charles II.

Gixtlimix or thc Grahd JcT: I feel it my duty to ask your attention to another subject which 1 am sure you will think with me, deserves at this moment, the pravest consideration of every citizen of the State. I allude to tbe late act of Congress, commonly known as the " Fugitive Slave Law." When th Constitrrüon of the United States was submitted to tbe different States for adoption and ratification, it recognized, by one of its plainest provisions, slaves as property; and although the trm slave was not used in the instrument, that part of it which provided for the extradition of fugitives from labor was as well understood and well considered as any other part of

the' instrument. It was as clear as any portion ol the till of rights, and received the sanction of those States where slavery did not exist as well as of taose where it did. Indeed, wit'uout such a prowon, the Constitution co aid not have been adopted; for it is well known that at that time slavery existed in many of the old States where it has since been abolished. That same Constitution is still in full forco, governing all all and protecting all. In 1793, Congress, in pursuance of the constitutional requisition, passed a Fugitive Slave Law, denning tbe mode in which fugitives from labor should be reclaimed by those to whom they owed service. From that day to this, it has remained the law of thc land. In tbe mean time, however, many changes have taken place in the social condition of the country. Prior to 1830 the cases in which the owners of fugitive slaves fonnd it necessary to resort to the law, were comparatively lew there was no organized opposition to the institution at all events there was little or no difficulty in enforcing the law. ' Since the Constitution was adopted, State alter State has abolished slavery, and it has been gradually receding from the North and the East, until it is now confined merely to the planting States. There have always been men, in and out of the slave States, and men of high character and pure morality, opposed to the system of negro slavery ; but this class of men never dreamed of interfering with existing institutions, much less of interfering with the individual rights of the owner of slaves. Until within the last few years, his riht to his slavo has been deemed as sacred as his right to any ether species of property; and until very recently, it has never been claimed that there was any " higher law'' than the Constitution which could defeat that right. Without tracing the progress of anti-slavery sentiment in this country, up to this time, or referring to the causes, which, in my judgment, have given a party character to what otherwise would have been harmless opinions, we cannot close our eyes to the fact, that at tais moment Ave are passing through the severest ordeal to which the Constitution has ever been subjected. Lvil passions seem to have been let loose, and madness, in some sections of the country, seems to rule the hour. The continu.il agitation of the subject for the last few yjars, has had a tendency to encourage the slave to flee from his master, hoping lor protection from that class in the free States whose sympathies have been so strongly expressed in his favor. While Indiana has by Statute aided the master, obstacles have been interposed by some of the other States to the recovery of fugitives; and this has led, very rapidly, as msv have been supposed, to sectional irritation. The dilliculties have been more and more complicated by the extension of our territory, thereby creatine tbe necessity for new States and new Territories, nntil at last they bavo assnrned nn importance so threatening to the integrity of tho Union, as to lead to the passage by Congress at its last session, of a series of measures intended as an adjustment of alt controversies. Of these measures, tho " Fugitive Slave Law" is one. This law provides some additional facilities for the master in the rceovery of his slave, and imposes sorao additional penalties on those who aid in defeating his recovery. This is all the rights of thc fugitive are substantially the same as they were under the old act of 1793 ; and yet the passage of this law, for which there seemed to be a sort of necessity, has been made the theme of violent denunciation by public meetings, and threats of resistance whenever it is attempted to be executed. By the provisions of the late act, the dnty of aiding the master to recover his property, is chiefly devolved on the courts of the United States, and other officers connected with them. It is the duty of this court, where there is necessity for it, to appoint commissioners, who are charged with the performance of certain duties in aid of the master; but in all this, the rights of the fugitive are as clearly protected äs they are under the act of 1793. The 7th section of the act imposes a penalty of fine and improsonment upon all who attempt to hinder the arrest of a fugitive to aid him in escaping from custody, or who haibor or conceal him. It will be your duty to inquire whether any one within this District has rendered himself liable under this section. If there be any such person or persons, you will present them to this court for trial. But it may be well to evamine a little further into the consequences which may result from the resistance of this law. In a very early period of the Government only five or six years after the Constitution was adopted Congress passed an act imposing certain duties on all liquors distilled in the United States. It was thought by a portion of the people of Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, where there were extensive distilleries of rum and whiskey, to be very oppressive. In Pennsylvania, open resistance to the law was made. Public meetings were held, inflammatory resolutions adopted, denouncing the law and all who attempted to execute it. The collector of the duties appointed by tho United States, was threatened his house and his papers were burned the United States Marshal was compelled to deliver up his pro ess and abandon his duties the courts of the United States and of the State, were unable to make head against the spirit of resistance they were powerless. It at last came to be a question between tbe powers of the Government and a mob. Under these circumstances, it was certified by a Justice of the Supreme Court to the President, that the laws of the United States were opposed that their execution was . obstructed by combinations too powerful to be suppressed Ij the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, or by the process vested in tbe Marshal. Every effort had been made by appeal and remonstrance; but. inflamed by artful and unscrupulous leader, the standard of rebellion was hoisted. There was no alternative but to suffer the law to be trodden down by a mob, or enforced with the sword. Gen. Washington, then at the head of the Government, did not hesitate to send a military force to the theatre of insurrection. He sent an army, and thos who had defied the civil power, yielded. Order was restored tbe courts of justice resumed their functions the law was executed, and from that period until 1305, when it was repealed, the officers of the government charged with the collection of duties, performed their duties without further popular interruption. In the mean time, tbe leaders of the insurrection were arrested, indicted for .treason, and many of them convicted, and bat for the clemency of the President, would have met the fate of traitors. I have referred to this scrap of history to show, first, that if necessary, force will be used to put down resistance to the law, and in the second place to warn those, if such there be in Indiana, disposed to test the power of the Government, of some of the consequences of such resistance. Ordinarily, tbe resisting the execution of legal process by one or by more persons, is a high misdemeanor, and severely punished; but when bodies of men meet together upon a common intent, and resolve to resist tbe execution of a common law, and by violence and intimidation do actually accomplish their object the offence is far di Jerent. In the cases referred to in Pennsylvania, the Court, after full argument, rated that ''the attempt by a body of men by intimidation to prevent the execution of an act of Congress, was levying war within the meaning of th Constitution, and was therefore treason. Tbe English rule is perhaps still more stringent, the raising a body of mec to obtain by intimidation the repeal of a law, or to oppose and prevent, by terror, its execution, is levying war against the Government. And, pentlernen.'what can he more subversive of public liberty than proceedings of this character. They alttck the very foundations of the Government. They malt war upon every tain" which can secure social order and social rights. - Now it is very certain that in soma quarters of the country, open resistance to the recent act of Congress bef .re referred to, is threatened and enconraged by large bodies of bad or misguided men. How far this spirit of disorganization will go unless checked by the interposition ol authority, no man can teil. The subject is in itself an excitin? one, and may be handled by designing men with powerful effect to inflame the public temper. It has been so used, and although confined to a very small portioo of the people of any one State, so violent have been their proceedings as to furnish. pretexts lsewhere for attacking the Union itself. I regret to be compelled to say that our own commonwealth is not free from blame, for in a county near our sister State of Ohio, a meeting has been held fi.r the purpose of organizing a forcible resistance to public authority th most insane counsels prevailed j and u they atfrt I to carry out what they proclaim to be their in. tsotioos, they will be guilty oftrcason towards thc ;ov.

ernment, and possibly be subject to its penalties. Thus has this mad spirit invaded our very homes, and I feel it my duty in the most solemn manner, to warn those of the consequences which will certainly follow if their threats are followed by overt acts. It gives ma pleasure, however, to know that this spirit is confined to very few persons, and that the public sentiment of Indiana is for law and order. Whatever may be the feelings of the great body of the people in regard to the institution of domestic slavery, they will never be found making war on the rights of others. In the midst of a sectional controversy which has

shaken the government to its centre, it has been our boast that Indiana has been faithful to the constitution her tribunals of justice have ever been unawed and uninflu enced, and it is my firm belief that she will be found faithful to the last. . Gentlemen, there are too many indications of a coming storm, and although the spec in the horizon may now be no lar-jer than a man's hand, it protends a crisis in pub lic affairs which will test the stability of onr public in stitutions. Threatened resistance to toe law of Con gress and inflammatory appeals to the misguided passions of a portion of the people of the North have placed weapons in the hands of those in the South who seek to overturn the gcernment. V here this is to end God on ly knows: but our path of duty is plain. We must stand by the rights of others as we stand by our own. We must observe the laws and we must enforce their ob servance where they are resisted we must keep oar faith not only with each other, but with the citizens of other States. You gentlemen, are assembled from every part of the State you are familliar with the public sentiment and it is your province to investigate the matters to which I have alluded, and for this purpose yon will have all the aid that the process and authority of this court can give you. If there are persons within this district who have rendered themselves amenable to the penalties prescribed in the 7th sec. of the Fugitive slave law. you will present them to this court for trial. If this law has been resisted or its execution prevented by the violence or intimidation of orstinized bodies of men, it is your duty to prefer indictments ajrainst them. In all your proceedings, however, yon will be careful that no political feelings or prejudices snail taint the impartiality and toe independence of your deliberation. Letter from Gov "Whitcomb. ' Editors of the Statesman: Gentlemen In your paper of the 23d ult., is an article in relation to free-toil ism, as it is termed, and, although I am not one of the six therein appealed to for an answer, yet as I am referred to in that, as well as in the two succecling numbers of your paper on that subject, it will not, I trust, in justice to myself, be deemed inappropriate to occupy your columns with a few remarks. In th Presidential canvass of 1S48, the public mind was mainly occupied, and much divided, with the question of slavery in the new Territories, and especially as to tho power of Congress to apply, as well as the txpe diency of applying the principles of the Wilmot Proviso, in establishing governments for them. The Democratic party of Indiana, as a body, so far as that question was conserned, occupied the ground of non-intervention ; in other words, they took the position, substantially, that Congress should pass no law establishing or prohibiting slavery in those territories, but that the people of the Territories themselves, on emerging into State Governments, should bavo tha sole control over that subject within their respective limits. Besides thc intrinsic merits of this view of the question, it was contended that the subject would thus be thrown upon those only who were to bo affxtjd by it, and thus be withdrawn from the consideration of Congress, where it had become a fruitful and alarming subject of anry controversy, and which it must now be apparent is threatening the existence of the Union itself. I can challenge the world to say that in the several public addresses I made during that canvass, and in my many private conversations then and since, I ever expressed rüvsclf in the least degree favorable to the policy of thc Wihnot Proviso, as applicable to these Territories It was under t'.icse circumstances that my annual message to the Indiana Legislature, to which you refer in the last number of your paper, was written.- The position now so generally, if not universally admitted in the free States, was therein repeated, that the territory ceded to us by Mexico, had come to us free from the institution of Slavery. It was alo dded, ( not that it should be " made free'' as imputed to me in the National Era newspaper last summer, for that would imply aetion by the passage of the Wilmot Proviso, or some kindred measure, but) that every constitutional and legal means should be adopted " to continue''' it free. The very phrase employed, that every "constitutional and legal'1 means should be availed of, to continue the territories free, was, in the studied lrevity emplot'etl throughout the messase, significant. It certainly implied that there were meafis, which had been advocated, and were still entertained in some quarters, that were not constitutional and legal, and which ought not to be employed. I then believed, and I yet believe, that the principle of non-intervention alono would ensure their remaining free. Even Southern opinion had already been advanced to the same effect, and so general has that opinion since become, that it is well known the Nashville Convention required as essential to a settlement of our existing difficulties, that Congress should expressly recognize slavery in all the new territory South of 36 deg. 30 min. To this requisition, the language of my message was in direct opposition, aud I hope it is unnecessary to add, that ray action since in Congress, has been in strict conformity with it, in that respect. So Tar was the message from being opposed to non-intervention, that the former observance of that principle in tho case of Florida, although ceded to us as s!are territory, was expressly referred to without disapprobation, and as a reason why the South would now have no cause of complaint by is application to our new territories to continue them free. That the message was not regarded as favorable to the Wilmot Proviso, is further shown by the facf! that I was soon after formally written to by K. II. Rousseau, Esq., a member of the House and alsoby Messrs. Milliken, Evans, Day, Carver, Miiligan, and Buckles, of the Senate, expressly enquiring of me: " Do you believe that Congress possesses the power under the Constitution to prohibit slavery in said territories." " Will you, if elected to the United States Senate, use your influence and vote for the passage of an act prohibiting slavery in New Mexico and California?"' This enquiry on thc part of seven highly respectable and intelligent ireut lernen, was wholly useless, if it had been considered that I had already expressed myself favorably in the message, to the Wilmot Proviso, or to any other measure of Concrrcss, having the effect of prohibiting slavery in the territories. My letter in answer to the almve inquiries, is published in the last number ef your paper. To the first interrogatory, Messrs. Owen, "Hannegan, Law, and Chamberlain, then also candidates for the Senate, responded in the affirmative, as appears by their published letters. Tbey all entertained the opinion that Congress possesses the power to prohibit slavery in the territories. As to the second interrogatory, also, Messrs. Law and Chamberlain, explicitly pledged themselves in its favor. Mr. Hannegan, although declining any pledge, said; " npon the subject involved in all Its bearings, should I be elected Senator for the ensuing term, I fehall be governed by the instructions of the Legislature of Indiana, whose will it will be my highest pleasure to carry out in earnestness and good faith." Mr. Owen frankly stated at some length his opposition to thc Wilmot Proviso, in practice, as calculated unnecessarily to irritate the Southern mind, &c., but was willing for the passage by Congress of an act or joint resolution declaratory of the sene of that body that the territory is free. I forbear giving more of these well written letters, than is barely sufficient for my present purpose ; because if their entire re-publication is deemed in the least degree material, they are quite accessible for that ob ject. Un reference to my own letter, it will bo seen that it anwers neither of the interrogatories in the affirmative. If I had had no doubts as to the constitutionality of the Wilmot' Proviso, the obvious and t atural expression would have been to say so. On the contrary, the following positions are taken: , 1st. " That thc territory came to us free, by its own laws, from the institution of slavery. 2d. That slavery could not exist there ( or elsewhere ) without positive law for that purpose. 3d. That I was opposed to the passage of any such law by Congress, and as the Ter ritorial Legislature was the only remaining source, from which the passage of such a law could be looked for, that I believed Congress cctild constitutionally so organganize the government of the Territory, as to prohibit the Territorial Legislature, also, from passing any such law; and 4th. That I was in favor ofthat course of policy." Besides the constitutional means of prevention or resistance to any attempt to establish slavery there by law, here was an act ire means so far as Congress was concerned, which could, in my opinion, be constitutionally used for that purpose. It was in fact, thc principle of the Clayton Compromise Bill, as usually termed, which had passed the Senate at the previous session of Congrets and bad failed in the House. The Territory being free and as that bill prohibited its Legislature from either estaUUhing or excluding slavery, it is manifest (if this bill had passed ) that itmust have remained free until the people in forming a State Constitution, should exercise their own right of finally controlling the whole matter. ". " This means j I Lave said, tould 1 constitutionally used. The doctrina of non-intervention was at that lime generally favored by the South, although a considerable charge seems to have occurred since. Many Southern members of Coagress, ( Mr. Calhoun, I believe, included,) voted for the Clayton Compromise Bill, and it we my hope that the peace of the country might yet be secured by the passage of a similar measure.

I certainly used terms designed to be strongly expressive of my conviction that such a coursewould prevent the introduction of slavery ( a conviction that I believe is already become nearly uuvrsal with those who have ex amined the subject in the free States, ) and it is not improbable that some may have hastily confounded expressions applicable merely to tbe nsult, with those applicable to the meant for producing that result. I am aware that Southern Statesmen generally take the ground that African slavery is already permitted throughout thia territory, by force of the Constitution of the United States, and that tbe application of the principle of non-intervention, would insure its remaining slave .territory. This difference of opinion at to the law, between the North and the South, I regard as a matter of congratulation, because there ought then to be no difficulty in so organizing the Territorial Governmcnts as to leave the decision nf the question to the Supreme Court of the United States, and thas to withdraw it from the Hall$ of Congress. At- to your enquiry whether tuere was anr attempt to practice a fraud on the part of candidates for United States Senator or others in the positions they assumed, I need only reply for myself (if it be necessary to say anything further) that I am reminded by one of tbe very gentlemen who addressed to me the above interrogatories, that in a conversation with him, and another member of the Legislature after the delivery of my message and before writing my letter I stated that I could not pledge myself in favor of the Wilmot proviso, if I lost my election in consequence. If required I doubt not I can obtain permission to pnblkh both their names, and I content myself

now with saying that their unquestioned character and high standing would at once silence all possible doubt upon the subject. I presume other gentlemen will rec ollect similar statements from me aboutthe same time. I do not, however, understand you as imputing to roe anvthing nncandid or imnroner in the matter. My petition on the question referred to, fortunately does not depend upon imperlect recollection of vague conversations. It is expressed in my message and in my letter. 1 here they are and they will speak tor them selves. The letter is the more recent and specific. . It does not, as already stated, respond affirmatively to cith er oi t:ie interrogatories. From the foregoing it may be judged how far the state mentis entitled to respect, which has sometimes been made, that my professions in favor of free soilisni were stronger than those of either ol the other candidates,and secured my election. And yet, soon after that elec tion, in a classification of t oiled Mates senators pub lished in a Washington City paper, (soon after discon tinued,) while Gen. Uixof New X ork, whosupported thc Buffalo ticket in 134$, was classed as a democrat, I, who advocated the Baltimore platform, and the election of Gen. Cass, was classed with Messrs. Hale, ol New Hampshire, and Chase of Ohio, as the three free soilers in that body: lhis gross injustice can hardly be attrib uted to ignoranco. It is scarcely necessary to say it could not have been made, or if made, it certainly could not have been believed in Indiana. I did hope, but in vain, that the misrepresentation would have been suflercd to die, when the temporary and local influence it was designed to have in that place, had performed its office. - I wrote, indeed, tomv colleague there, before I left home, a full denial of the first misstatements on the subicct which had appeared at the east, with the reauest that it should be published, if by him deemed advisable a course, however, winch, under the discretion allowed him, he did net adopt. But to return. The opinion that the Wilmot Proviso is unconstitutional has the merit of harmony with the spirit of our republican form of government, and above all, if practically acted upon, it would put an end forever to Congressional agitation upon this alarming subject. I doubt not these considerations had much influence on my judgement in the matter, occupied as my mind was, to a great extent, with questions of ft very different character, and peculiar to the State over which I then had the honor to preside. Within tbe last two or three years, however, the question of the power of Congress over thc subiect of sla very in the Territories, has been subjected to an cxtentof research, and a degree of analysis conlessedly greater in the opini.m of our first statesmen, than it bad ever before received, and I am free to admit that my mind has undergone a change, (not as to the question of its expediency, for as to that, I still entertain the same opinion,) but as to the mere nuked question of constitutional power. This is not the place to discuss that qnestion. I will merely content myself, with saying that the constitution being silent as to the power of Congress over ter ritory except when regarded as property, tho power of governing territory by Congress is but a necessary and implied incident to the treaty making power,-by which territory may be acquired, for territory being acquired, it must be managed and governed. I fully concur in the policy of devolving the government upon the people of tue a erntory as lar as practical le, but to do so congress must take the initiative to some extent in the way of or ganization, by at least defining and securing the right of sutlrage, öic, ecc, The power of Congressional intervention, being, once admitted, I am not able easily to limit it, or at least to limit it so far as to deny the further power of prohibiting slavery. When the instructions, therefore, of the Indiana Legislature to vote for the Wilmot Proviso, reached roe at Washington, during the late session, I determined to obey them. It is true, I might have sheltered myself nnder.the instructions without lurther remark, but that deep regard for the public welfare which impelled me lately to take my share of responsibility in an effort for the pacification of the country, forbids silence while that country is yet agitated and in peril . I must say, therefore, that before the instructions were received, I frankly stated to my colleague, on being interrogated, that if called upon, I should vote against the Wilmot Proviso. I thought it then and I yet regard it as a measure only calculated to irritate the south, and to furnish a pretext to those who might desire disunion for its own sako; for carrying out their purpose. The right of instruction I had long adopted as a part of my political creed, and accordingly I net only voted for tue measure in question, as often ns it was introduced as an amendment to a territorial bill, but in a spirit cf good faith, I als voted for every amendment of less force or extent which might be regarded as involving the same principle, objectionable as they were to me individually. I think you are mistaken in the statement that I was one of a sub-committee of four on the slavery resolutions. I have not the slightest recollection of such an appointment. I do not think it material, however, so far as my own opinions are concerned, for from the statement itself it appears that the power of the committee was limited to the language of the resolutions and did not extend to any alteration of the "sentiment." I rec ollect seeing or hearing the resolutions read, bnt not with the same scrutiny and feeling of responsibility, I imagine, that would have been the case had I been one of the committee to whom they were specially referred. Some of them had reference as usual to the political questions of the day, and others to measures of constitu tional reform as well as to the slavery question. My strong impression is that I did not concur in favor of the adoption of all those of the latter character. I am strengthened in this conviction by thc concurring recollection of another gentleman present, who took much inter est in thc matter. Indeed I do not understand Mr. Ow en, in his letter published in your paper of the 30th ult., as saving that I, or any other individual, approved of every one of the resolutions. He only says when speak ing of having submitted them to many members of tie Legislature and to mystlf, that they met "with general approval." That could hardly have been otherwise, for they were drawn up with his accustomed ability. So far as I am concerned, it is not very probable that I would further circumscribe myself on this subject , after my election, than I had done before it; especially in view of tho political storm then gathering in the horizon, which might require the widest discretion on my part to successfully meetIn conclusion, I desire to say, as an act of justice to the Democratic Convention of January, 1S49, that their resolution to the effect that the new territories (ein; already free, it was the duty of Congress to' ''pre vent" the introduction of slavery within their limits, did not, in my judgment, call for legislation on the part of that body. It simply, as expressly therein stated, called for "prevention," not action, for resistance, not aggression, for non-intervention, not the exercise of power.
