owed and avowed allegiance
i Upon its being urged that he was an A.
mcrican citizen, and that he had held sta
tion there, which put his character of an A.
mcrican beyond question; he disclaimed the
character of an American citizen, and assert
cd that he was entitled to protection by his
birth under the British government, long
before the independence Of America ; and
that although the British government might
connive at it, he maintained, that the princi-
Piles of British law and policy never admitted
sof repatriation and could not refuse TO re-
scognize the right of any subject born within
the realm or its colonies.
f He was nevertheless advised that he must
depart the realm.
L He thcrcupon signi6ed that it was out of
his power, that he was destitute Of the funds
requisite to dcfray the expenses Of his remov-

had alrcady.incurrcd.

" Then raid IKE tsoman, Whom shall I
bring up INTO theef Aad ne sad, RnaS ne

THE character of King Saul is one of the
most Singular recorded in the Old Tesla
ment. A melancholy picture, inded, is ex-
hbited, when we trace him through all bis
unrighteousness to the last trsgical scene
of his life, when Cilbos's awful mount re-
ceivcd his blood, shed by his own wicked
hand. He had been highly favored of Hea-
ven. Elected by the Almighty, to reign o.
yer his chosen people, and placed under
the care and tuition OF piots Samuel, he
seemed every way calculated to make
distinguished figure in the history of the
primitive Church. But with such peculiar
advantages his fall was the more dreadful.
His enormit,es were at length SO great, that
even the common influences OF the Spirit
were Withdrawn, and he was left to grope
in the dark, bewildered in the multitude of
his own sins, and not knowing which way
to look for relief.
In the midst of Iii. distress, he appears
TO have felt the necessity of the counsels he
had received from his former friend and in
structor. But here new difficulty suggests
itself. God had ceased to answer him IN
any way. Ills dreams were a mere jargon
Of confused ideas. The prophets had for
saken him-And even the Trim and Thum
i'm were to hin, as useless names In this
dilemma, we see depraved human nature

from the dead the form of Samuel, that he
might know his destiny. II is not to our
purpose to follow saul any further, but now
make the comparison between him and tie
sinner of gospel days.
IT'S true that at this day of ligh, and
knowledge, people do not resort To witches
or magicians but there sal exists n Ger
