FXPATRIATION.

A writer in the Chronicle of yet.
90, observes that the indignation
OF heaven appears remarkabI, con-
soicunus in the fate Of MoREAU, who
so early fell a victim to his ambition.
in commencing traitor I'd bis country
AID his former general What,
then. we would ask lis become Of the
right Of ee ,ntriation. which the
same Chronicle has for years been
~ntleavouring to establish and the en-
forcement of which as il regards
british snjrcts. is now the sole re-
maiuing cause of the present war {
Is the Chronicle now ready to ahan-
don the. principle. and to coucede that
q. Britain has Il right to, punish as
traitors all our naturalized seamen
who may be found in arms against
her? II seems by the above para
graph that the act of expatriation is
not only an unlawful act. but a crime
of such atrocious turpitude AS TO call
forth the peculiar and conspicuous
i" indignation Of heaven !" II is a
crime of so much horrour. and Of
fence which &" smells 50 rank Ia hea-
ycn." that the Almighty is cohstrsin-
ell to avenge. by an act - little skcrt
of a miracle" this fragrant violation
of patriotism We presume however,
that the writer did not mean that his
principle should be adopted in lis full
extent.
The right Of British subjects to ex-
patriate themselves must never be
abandoned ! They ma! fly from the
tyranny, the corruptions, the iyus-
| tice and the Impressions of their ma
tive country. and enlist under the
| banners Of her enemies seeking to
| exterminate her name and race. With
out any reproach upo, their patrio-
tism, or fear Of Sc the Indignation Of
heaven" But the rights of Bona
parte are of very different nature.

character so sp0tIeSs, his benefcence
so unboundcd. that no circumstances
can Justify an attempt to arrest his
victorious progress! MoREAU. in

Ransparte without being guilty OF
any crime! He had previously re-.
i tired to private life he sought no
promotion. he formed no eOnspira-
cies against bis immaculate sovereign,

to spend the remainder Of his d., in
peace, in the bosom of that country
