January 21 it, 1320. STATE OF IXDIANA, Executive Office CORYDON, Jan. 2 1st, 1S20. His Excellency Gabriel Slaughter. SIR Here with 1 have the honor to renew my tlcmar.aoi Ko'ocrt btcphens, James Ttiompsion and Jcsie Toimg, as furitivci from the justice of this Sut, ; and have intrusted I such demand, on its behalf, together1 with the accompanying documents, to a person in whom I fave thought proper to mace that confidence. Since I addressed you my last let - tcr, I have personally examined the original indictments cn file in the ofrice of tlve Clerk of the Circuit Court of this Vilntv, under the immediate tliil there was -eidence that thev were found by the Grar.d Jury.' In your Excellency's letter of the ilth ultimo, it is intimated, that the ccnflictinp; policy of difTeient States renders it in some instances, a m:.tter f difficult and delicate interference. and den-ands . 1 Vk. . is a complir.nce with the le quis:tes of the law, of one 6iate shoum liefcre a citizen be depriverl of his liberty, and unheard, scr.t toat-oihcr for trial How tlds clashing policy can render it a o-.M-cr of dllhcidt and delicate interfciciicoto compiy with the Constitution and law o th- Lni eiJ Stt'cs. ( which clu not s-.c-m to require technical r.icctv ij the evidence cf a enm-, 4 v.: c'nari'C to support the dci";utd of fin'iti es from Justice, is not ca to he compiv herded. A:tot.j;ii tin documents which iccompdned rr.y Conner application, were co. sidvit. i:!su4icent, by your Exeih.ne), sunort tiat demand, 1 peisnadc --elf. that no objevtious wili be m:de o ti e prescn: ; e:pecially, when re terenco is had to the assurance -i-en in the latter clause of vour firs letter on this subject. In your iast communication, you s' tto tlirt tin, decision which you l'": lormcd on the demand arose no' ftom cny aliedged circumstance ol the case, but would have govt. nice on a similar amplication fiom anv II 4 other State, o.- for any other alleged crime. This assurance was entiiel) mmeccssary as n y respect for our Excellency's character, precludes the dea that if) the discharge of the duties of your exalled station, you wtJiild sulfcr the circumstances cf any case, or the source ct any demand cf tins nature, to divert you from that line cf conduct, which is marked out by the permanent authotilies of the United S'ates : or for tht moment to permit partial distinction? to render vou ferscful of the lights, w hich the State of Indiana can nevti consent to relinquish. From a reiew of the correspondence emanating on my part, I can discover no portion of it, which will bear a construction so degrading to the 0vment overwhich I have the honor to preside. With your Excellency likewise, I shall foi bear making any ;ai ticular rrma -ks on the ciieum--tanccs marking th.e transaction v.hicl -rave me to tl:c rr(Utst, as they would not be otherwise than unpleasant to youi freiings ; an 1 inusn ueh as tr.e cnstnuion ana law oi tne Uiuleii States are entirely si-mt as t j the time when a demand shall he made ; in relation to time thetefore, ctni:icted with this subject, upoi wlichycur Excellecy has thought proper to criticise, allow me to takt tliis occasion to inform 5 on, th:.t 1 !rail hold mvself ucccuntablc cnlv to

jiirisdic:icnof which the indictments ; to ava'l ti.pmselvcs of technical inwcrc fouiVa, and disco cr tta the cri-1 fr'rmrditiej, if any exit. in th instn:-f-inais shew that every vequisit of the ".t on which they shall be arraigned, iaw had boon complied with, to evince I II w mldsecm thct iifritives from the

.4 ..A urn in thi instance, I represent. Vrhi!c the duties of inv station ompel me to ui;'e the picvettt application for the fugitives in quistion, )crnit me to assure your Excellei cy, that I shall on all occasions cultivate the friendiy intercourse und uihanity of feeling between the sist' S"- es on which tlic wei lai e of the Union s o esscmi?lly deptneis. An objc. no less than tlic p.unishment and prevenion of crimes, seems to have cc'ucn rise to the prov siors cf tl c Fcer-i Constiuitio.i and the laws to enforce ther:i, o'i the subject of b.mn'mcr to trial persons cha;ged with c-luriets in one h'ljte, and having nvd to rnotlicr. Yet their v oil-meant provisions.

It is net drsded. that tlc Executive applied to. h ii some in eo sr. re to juca e of the surTrier cy of the document, on which the demard of the crrcst cf a citizen is n urdtd; but it is contended thp.t his iiit ceases, whenever it is r.scert?incd that such document is a copv r f r.:i in Ju tment found cr v.u afiif'avit m?(hj ! utl c lJir Hop -r cmnoriucs, cnDnrin the person or pcisor.s dcmar.c'td j wit'! havine; ctmmitted trensnn, felo ny or other crime, certified as authen tic by the proper outhority cf the tate or Territory, from which the pcrscn or persons ro cbr.red shall have tied Such a document r?ends : Ms uprdication, and t is conHdrr.tly believed, that vour Excellency wl render the persons charged, to rls i t"; 'itider the laws ofthis State, leaving it to them and to their cour.-el Justice of either of the States should, by tl e Ccnstitu ion and law s cfthe I'nitcd -States, be de'iveied up, nnd wihrard sent for trial, to the St:te cr Teritory frcm whence sucV pTo:i or persons sh.ail have fled whether the indictment be defective or otherwise, ) with as much propriety as that any j Pcrson "Pcn a defective indi rtment, i should, unheard, be apprehended and bi otiht to tuai if found within the proper bailiwick of a sheriff.
