Under the constitutions Of the Sc
veral states and their laws, as well
as under the present constitution OF
the United States and their statutes,
the principal Of natural allegiance
WAS received as il had been known TO
exist in England and other countries
of Europe, FOR ages past. In Nir-
ginia alone, a solemn mode Of cxpa
tfiation was provided by all act OF
the Legislature. by which the assent
Of Virginia was expressly given to
its citizens, to dissolve the bond OF
allegiance, in a special form Of pro
ceeding. But until a citizen shall
have complied with the requisites of
the statute. his rights and his duties
as citizen were to continue. For
example. his right to ini,eri, lands
would not be lost by a naturalization
in England or in France. A similar
provision was made in few. il ANY 0.
