AMERICAN CITIZENS IN FRANCE

AMERICAN CITIZENS IN FRANoE.-A
case of great Importance to American
citizens of foreign birth from the con.
tinent of Europe, and particularly
France, has just been decided by the
French tribunals. A native of the
department Of the Lower Rhine,
named Michael Zeiter, emigrated,,
while yet boy, to the United States,
where he became naturalizeG citizen
at the proper time and in due form Of
law. In France his name had been
enrolled for conscription on the regis.
ter, and when he reached the age Of
military service the lot fell on him to
serve. Being absent, the police were
directed to seize him whenever they
might find him. Al opportunity at
length presented itself. Zeiter, little
dreaming what was in store !for him,
returned to see the epot where he frat
drew breath. 1t was at Weisenberg.
He was arrested as a deaerter from the
army.
Mr.. Faulkner, the American Min.
lister at Paris, demanded his release as
a right, on the ground that there was
no service due from him at the time Of
his emigration, and that, having re.
nounced his allegiance to France and
sworn allegiance to the United States,
France has now no claim upon him,
and his individual allegiance is due
to the land of his adoption. The
French tribunal has pronounced in
favor of the claim of the American
Minister, and Zleter has been dis.
charged. This case is highly impor-
tant, as the release Of the prisoner was
claimed as right, and it will there.
fore serve as q precedent, not only in
France, but on the Continent of Eu.

GRANGE IN OHIo TO DoUaLAs.--

that five Of the delegates in the late

for Fremont in 1856. They are now
for Douglas. 1t adds:
,"They are substantial, reliable farm.

the Lincolnites. All over the coun.
tv, in every neighborhood, we hear Of

Upion candidates, Bell and Everett,
was held at Hillsborough, Ohio, on
Saturday last. 1t was addressed by
John Scott Harrison and James K.

party at Chi!licothe was approved, and
strong resolutions were adopted

The Morals OF uAYTI.--We find
the following in the New York Jour,
nal of Commerce:
The morals of Iiayti, as exhibited
by statistics, are shocking. An off,
clal Haytien document, giving the
number of births, deaths, marriages
and divorces in various villages in
different parts of the empire during
three months, shows that the whole
number OF children born in those
months was 1900, of whom lao
were born out Of wedlock. In Port
au-Prince, the capital, out of 420 chD.
dren born only 80 were legitimate"
That is the kind Of population the
success of Republicanism is designed
to throw upon the free States. On
Wednesday last, a colored correspon.
dent Of Mount Pleasant, in this coun-
ty, gave US an insight into the morals
Of the manumitted slaves that the
South is constantly sending into Ohio

Henry CIny on Popular SOVer-
eighty.

The opinion of Henry Clay has
been often uniformly and decidedly by
him expressed that the people of q
Territory have alone the peculiar and
exclusive power and right to decide
whether slavery shall exist in q Terri
tory as such, and that neither Con
gress or any other body or people have
any power or right to interfere with
the question.
But in the exercise of any such pow
er or right there be any doubt then
it belongs to the Supreme Court above
to settle the question, merely as 9
question of law:
Mr.. Clay--I do not understand the
Senator from Mississippi as proposing
that If one shall carry slaves into the
Territory--although by the laws of a
Territory he cannot take them--the
Legislative hands of o Territorial Gov
eminent should be 50 tied as t. pre-
vent it saying he shall not enjoy the
fruits Of their labor. If the Senator
from Mississippi means to say that
Mr.. Dayis--I do not mean to say
it.
Mr.. Clay--If The object of the Sen
ator is to provide that slaves may be
introduced into the Territory contrary
to the lex loci, and being introduced,
nothing shall be done by the Legisla.
ture to impair the rights of owners to
hold slaves thus brought, | certainly
cannot vote for it.
While | am willing to lay off the
Territories without the Wilmot Pro
viso on the one hand, or without q
clause for the introduction of slavery
into the Territories--while | am for
rejecting both one and the other--I
am content that the law shall prevail,
and if there be any diversity Of opin.
ion as to it | am willing it shall be
settled by the highest judicial authori-
ty Of the country.

Clay and jeff. Davis, May Is, 1850.
Judge Douglas in the SOuth---IAis
Norfolk Speech.
We invite attention to the respOn-
ses made by Senator Douglas to the
queries propounded tohim at Norfolk,
Virginia. The boldness and manli-
ness Of his answers will challenge uni,
versal admiration. In the South it
self he tells the Disunionists that they
would not be justified in seeding from
the Union, if Lincoln is elected, and
that it would be the duty ofthe Presi-
dent-ifthe attempt should be made
to treat them as Old Hickory treat.

courage to face the Disunionists in the
South with the same intreYidity that
he has fought the Abolition Fugitive.
slave Law Nullifers of the North
His gallantry, the national and pat.
riotic sentiments that he advocates,
alike in the North and in the South
against both extremists, will attract to
to his banner every man who has gen.
erOus and American sentiments in his
bosom. What a noble contrast does
his bold and intrepid attitude present
to that of Lincoln, who declares that
he would like to visit his old home in
Kentucky, but is afraid to do so for
fear Of sustaining personal vioIence!
He is as fearful and timid as the "Lit,
