OW TOW- rill :CAN ERY I wish that I had never been born ! In that ease what else I would have been it is difficult to say, but, certainly, I could have been no worse off than I am at the present time—the thirty-first day of March, A. D. 1853. I might have sprung up am kanebtxly else's property ; I might have graced a garden po*ibly, as a cabbage-head I---may-hap. as a flower which Mrs. Tomp kins might haveplucked to wear on her bosom, and then thrown away—oh I happy thought. But I am what I am; it is useless to re pine--tmleas to wish I had never been born, live till i die, unless f Commit suic' In that case, I tremble to ask myself the giber tion—what would:become of me ? True, my body would go into the ground; but I would certa,nly endeavor, in spirit, to knock for admasion at Heaven's pearly doors ; and 1 am lure Mrs. Tompkins (late my wife,) would Meet me there, and pre judice the keeper against me '. My name is JOhn Tompkins, Esquire, Mrs. Tompkins *bed to be my wife—the lawyers tell me that she is not any longer; and that she has re-assumed her maiden Ve, of Snooks; ery fortunate you say 1 Indeed it is. But I wouldn't care so much if it wasn't for my little boy—the dearest, sweetest, Tompkinest little fellow that ever blessed your eyes. Ah, me!— When I think of him, that heart of mine waxes big with sorrow, and my breast heaves high and low, and the muscles of i my face contract, and my,Noioe trembles if I speak, and somethingchokes me. , Dicl you ever have a littl e boy—who had a little coke, and wore little shoes, and a little roundabout I—the Oatter of whose 1 feet was as musical as thief - fall of the sum-1 mer rain in the wood anon the roef—the L light of whose eye was *great glimpse of ti the beautiful—the tint 1 f red on whose, cheektrwas as delicate as 'lf a master paint-' 1 er had dotted them— , w lOse hair was in ringlets, every one of which was a pearl bepond price, and held a hope that was , all your life ? I did. His name was Edward. He called me father I I loved him—my darling. my only boy 1 It always seemed strange to me that I, the unfortunate, should be blessed with such a boy. I was afraid of him—jealous of him and his welfare ; afraid, lest harm should come to him and vice should breathe upoti his white soul. Jealous, lest Death should claim him, or Time draw away hum me his love mid confidence. . To be a father, and see a child slowly breaking away from yoti, and forming new ties, lend learning to forget you t If there is a sharper dagger at the heart than that, tell me, and I will use it to take away this life of mine, that is so miserable. I wonder, now if I ever wronged my boy, oy fearing that either slander or absence would rob xne of hislove? Ido not, know. He is away with his mother—the inlfYins gave him to her. While I was asleep, he was taken sway ; and when I looked for him in the morning, it was in vain. My pretty boy 1 I have wondered, singe, that Eamon held its own, when I knew that he was Joao.

What was the reason of this melancholy Estate of affairs? We had no reason to look at a distance for heathens; they were in our-midst—in the forests of Maine—on Cape Cod and the moue tains of New Hampshire." One reason for not attending church is to be found in the fact that people think they can keep posted up on politics better by reading political newspapers at, home than by getting weak doses of anti♦+lavery at meeting.

July 18.—Attorney Gene al Black has, in compliance with the re quest of die President al the United States, , rendered an opinion is the case of Chris tian:lfterst. a native of Hanover, sad who end rated to this country in 1841, when he was about nineteen years of Aw. nisi Moen was recently madethe bean of a ecannuudeation to our minister at Ber lin, who was instructed to demand the re lease at Mr. Ernst. • It appears that he was naturalized last February, and in March, after procuring a regular prospect. he went beck to HMO vete on • temporary visit. He had been in thsx-vilhige where he was born, about three weeks, when be was arrested, carried to the nearest military station, forced into the Hanoverian army, and there he is at the present time; unable to return home to his faaaily and business, but compelled, against his will, to pedbrm military service. The Attorney General says that this is a use which makes it necessary for the gov ernment of the United States to interfere promptly and decisively, or acknowledge that, we have no power to protect natural hied citisens whenthey return to their na tive country under any circumstances what ever. What you will do must, of course, depend upon the law of our country, as controiied and mgdified by the law of na tions, the Constitution of the United States, and the acts of Congress. The natural right of every free person who owes no debts, and is not guilty of any crime, to leave the country of his birth, and, In good faith, and for an honest pur pose—the privilege of throwing off his nat ural allegiance in its place—the general right, in one word, of expatriation, is in contestable. I know that the common law of England denies it, that the judicial de. cisions of that country are opposed to it, and that some of our courts, misled by British authority, have expressed lthoug h not very decisively) the same opinion.— But all this is very far from settling the question. The municipal code of England es not one of the sources from which we derive our knowledge of international law. We take it from natural reason and justice, from writers of known wisdom, and from the practice of Civilized nations. - All these are opposed to the doctrine of perpetual allegiance. It is too injurious to the general interests of mankind to be tol erated. Justice denies that men should be confined to their native soil or driven away from it against their own will. A man may be either exiled or imprisoned/ for an actual offense against the law of his I country, but being born in it is not a crime for which either punishmentean be justly inflicted. Among writers on public law, the preponderance in weight of asithoritY, as well as the mejority in number concurs with Cicero, who declares that, the right of. expatriation is the firmest fosmdatkm of human freedom, and with Bynkershoek, who utterly denies that the territory of a State is the prison of her people. In prac tice no nation on earth walks, or ever did walk, 4 the rule of common law. All the countries of Europe have received and adopted and naturalized the citizens of one another.' They have all encouraged the man States hive conceded t e existence of the right, by making laws to regulate its exercise. Spain and the Spaniih-Ameri can States have always recognised it.— England, by a recent statue (7 & 8 Vic,) bee ,established a permanent system of net,. unitization in the very teeth of her common law rule. France has done the same, and besides that, has declared in the code Na poleon (Art. 17) that the gu t = a ' Frenchman will be lost by rut ion in a foreign country. There is no Govern ment in Europe or America which prac tically denies the right. Here, in the 'Uni ted States, the thought of giving it up can not be entertained for a moment. Upon that principle this country was populated. We owe it to our existence as a nation.-- Ever since our independence we have up held end maintained it by every form of words and acts. We have constantly prom ised full and complete proteetion to all persons who should come here and seek it byrenouncing: their natural sllegisace and transferring their fealty to us. We stand pledged to it in the face of the -whole world. Upon the faith of that pledge mill ions of persons have staked their most im portant interests. If we repudiate it now, or spare one atow of the power which may be necessary to redeem it, we shall be guilty of perfidy so gross that no American can witness it without a feeling pf intoler able shame. Expatriation includes not may emigra tion out of one's natural countit, but nat uralization in the country adopted as a fu ture residence. When we prove the right of q man to expatriate himself, we establish the lawful authority of the country in which be settles, to naturalize him, if the I Government pleases. What, then, is nat uralisation ? There is no dispute about the meaning of it. The derivation of the word alone. makes it plain. All lexico vaphers and all jurists define it one way. In its popular etymological and lawful sense it signifies Me rie t apang a foreigner and clothing him with alt Me privileges of a native citizen or atilijeet.
