Why then flu I hr be branded as a renega de ? Why fhoil the name °* Irilhman, Frenchman or Genevan, he used as a term of reproach ? The man who has fl;d his country, who lias abjured his return, and . adopted another, is not a foreigner to that other. Wftere his affedtions are, where is the allegiance of his heart, there is his coun try. Those who reproach him with being a fo reigner, are in reality much more so t/un he it, and in that view there are many more foreigners in Bolton than in N. York or Fniia delphia, which are fllled with inhabitants from all j quarters of tile globe.
