DEPARTMENT oF Stare, ‘Wasnixcrox, Nov. 4, 1886. B.A. Ricr, Exq., New York City: Sin—Your letters of the 29th ultimo and 3d instant, re- questing passports for eleven colored persons, have been received, and I am directed by the Secretary to inform. you that the papers transmitted by you do not warrant the Department in complying with your request. A parsport is a certificate that the person to whom it is [ mine 4 isacitizen of the United States, and it can on! issued upon proof of this fact. In the papers whicl accompany your communication there is not satisfactory’ evidence that the Y tame for whom you request pass- ports are of this description. They are represented in yonr letter as “colored,” and described in the affidavits as “black,” from which statements it. may be fairly in ferred that they are nogrocs. If this is so there ean be bo doubt that they are not citizens of the United States. The question whether free negroes are such citizeas is bot now presented for the first time, but has repeatedly arisen in the adminstration of both the national and State governments. In 1821 a controversy aroze as to whether free persons of color were citizens of the United States within the intent and meaning of the acts of Congress regulating foreign and coasting trado, 80 as to bo disquali fied to command vessels; and Mr. Wirt, Attorney Gene- tal, decided that they were not, and he moreover held that the words ‘citizen of the United States” were used in the acts of Congress in the same sense as in the consti- tution. This view is also fully sustained in 9 receut Opinjon of the present Attorney General, ¢ judicial decisions of thé country are to the same effect In Kent’s Commentaries, voi. ii, p. 277, it is stated that in 1883 Chief Justice Dagget, of Connecticut, held that frce blacks are not ‘‘citizens’’ within the mean, ing of the term as used in the constitution of the United States, and the Supreme Court, of Tennessee, in the cage of the State against Claiborn, held the same doctrine. Such being the construction of the constitution in regard to free persons of color, it is conceived that they cannot be regarded, when the jurisdiction of this govern- ment, as entitled to fall rights of citizens; but the Secretary directs me to say that, though the Department could not certify that such persons are citizens of the United States, yet, if satished of the truth of the facts, it would give a certificate that they were born in the United States, and free, and that the government thereof would regard it to be iis duty to protect them if wronged by a pepe government while within its jurisdiction for a legal and proper purpose, Pan tir, Teepectfull your obediant servant, J.
