Am Old JJoetrlne Ile rived.
.^Attention ia called by some of oar
\Kbtfbern exchanges, to a fact whioh
hu "bee? elicited by the Fenian tr?ala
ia England and Ireland, and that ia
toe revival by one of the English
~?aurts, of the old claim, "onco a sub
_?ee<, always a subject," and the sus
. Staining of that decidion by the Eng
.liah {?ress. It ia a decision, however,
?hst affects a host of naturalised oiti
meoa of the United States, and will
dgabtlees receive the attention of the
-Government.
Jin the tr?alo Colonel Warren, in
?nblin, as atatet L by the London oor
maepondent of the New York Times,
Aa prisoner demanded, as an Ameri?
can, the right granted to foreigners
. am England, of being tried by a mixed
j ?ry-half Englishmen and half
' ooantrymen of the prisoner-which
?right was denied by the Court, on
fcihe .ground that a boru subj ec t of
-the British Crown can never, by any
.-actof his own, escape from his aller
giance. This ruling of the court,
whioh ref uses io naturalised Ameri?
can oitixens, the rights given to all
other nations, is sustained by the
English newpapere, whioh quote both
English and American authorities in
_ its support, maintaining that a per
- . sravborn in England, but naturalized
?n aT?cu-eign State, is subject to all
the obligations imposed by his na?
tivity. He cannot shake off his alle
i gianve to 'his Jiativo country, or di
^ Ti?Mjimsolf altogether of his British
character, by a voluntary transfer of
liumself to another country. On this
-point the London Telegraph says:
*rA subject of Great Britain can
mot, by J> prooess of mere donization
abroad, throw off all hie obligations
ria his nativo land. For example, it
iii mell settled that, where war breaks
-oat between two States, a person who
i 3ua changed his r domicile from the
?ne to the. other, cannot lawfully
(fake up arms with the country of hie
?adoption, against that of his birth."
As the correspondent says, if this
Sie true, the naturalization of foreign?
ers in America, is a solemn farce; he
thinking, as all our people thought,
that the question of perpetual aile'
. .gianee had been settled by the wai
<af 1812. The canses of that war, a<
?nany of our readers know, were im
^pressaient and infraction of neutra!
arigbca by England; yet, strange tc
-*ay, a treaty of peace was made, with
mat any ref ?renos in it to the cause;
which produced hostilities, thong!
-the .objects wore supposed to hay?
.been practically gained. Neverthe
less, it has always been contended ty
tho British authorities, among then
Che historian Allison, that tho treaty
WM only an adjournment, and not i
-settlement of the difficulties betweei
the two countries. So, in the corres
pondonco between Lord Ashburtoi
and "Mr. Webster, which pr?c?d?e
the Ashburton treaty, the forme
.said that ho had no authority to mak<
?any stipulations npon. the subject o
the right of search and impressment
and that the peculiar necessities o
England, in regard to this matter
growing out of her maritime situa
lion, tho immense emigration of he
people to this country, and the fact tha
?very native of Great Britain, otway
-andperpetually, owes to her the dut;
m of serving her in war, together wit)
a similarity of appearance and iden
tity of language of the people of th
two countries, or?ate a necessit;
..which precluded entering into an;
?country upon' the subject at tha
time.
The majority of our readers wi]
aremember the Koszta case, inw1853
The correspondence between Mi
Webster and tho Austrian Ministe
set forth in full the principles of thi
Government, 'and its dotorminatioi
to protect its adopted citizens fror
any such claim of their native coun
-tries as "onco a subject, always
subject." Koszta was a Hungariai
by birth, but was not even a citizo:
of America-only a denizen; yet Mi
Webster's doctrino was sustained
practically, by Commander logre
liam, of tho United States Navy, wh
-demanded and obtained his release.
It is high time that "tho adjoin
anent" of chis question should be pu
un end to, and that England shoul
?be forced to a formal "settlement" c
this vexed .question. The presen
juncture-whon many bravo men wh
.fought under the American flag lan
gu iah iii British prisons-Ut favorable
to make the demand. Let Mr. Se?
ward suepend'his land-buying opera?
tions for a Bhort timtfc and have these
brava mea released; and afterwards
conclude a different'jjfesfcy on the
subject. .

Wilmington mmA Manche?ter JTtaH
roatd.
The Wilmington Journal publishes
some extracts from the report of the
president and directors of thia road.
In referring to the reports of the
superintendent and treasurer, we find
the following summary of receipts
and operating expenses given:- Gross
receipts $463,288.02; operating ex?
penses $249,148.20; estimated profits
$214,140.42. It will thus be seen
that the road has done a very good
business, and that skill and economy
haye been used in its management
The report then refers to the indebt?
edness of the company. It ia Rtatpri
in the report, that when the work of
reconstructing and re-equipping the
road commenced, it was the inten?
tion to pay this indebtedness chiefly
by the sale of bonds. Every effort
has been made, but as yet the presi?
dent'and directors have not been
able to negotiate nil tho eec ur i tics. It
is from this cause the company is now
pressed for money. Som o $500,000
has been raised on securities during
tho year. In addition to this, all the
former bonded debt,?with accrued in?
terest, covering transactions amount?
ing to $1,281,740, has been re-ar?
ranged.
The report expresses the opinion ?
that tho present indebtedness of tho |
company is not so large as to be be?
yond its management, and regards |
the debt as one whioh can be cern
passed without great difficulty, though
it may require time to do so. On the
whole, we should- think the showing
made in these annual reports, would
be highly encouraging to the stock?
holders._
The European Conference on the
Boman question has been fully agreed
upon, the Holy Father having with?
drawn his opposition to it. It will
be held at Munich, and as regards
the number of States represented at
it, will be the largest assembly of this
kind since 1815. The improper state?
ment heretofore made, that General
Dix, our Minister to France, had
indicated a desire on the part of onr
Government to participate, is now
denied, as was reasonable to expect it
would be. It is doubtful whether the
conference will bo able to determine
-the Boman question.
CHESTER ITEMS.-The Chester cor?
respondent of the York vii le Enquirer
says:
"J. Wesley Davis, the young man
who was reported last week as being
mortally stabbed by Jamison Carter,
is getting well, and is now thought
to be out of danger.
"Amos T. Estes, an old merchant]
of our town, died last week."
IN MEMORIAM.
Wordsworth, in the masterpioco of his
life-"The Excursion"-very philosophi?
cally and feelingly says that "the good die
first;" and although tho expression is old
and true, it was never yet applied with
more force or exactness than to tho lamen?
table death of Mr. WILLIAM DOUGHER?
TY. He ceased to realize tho existence of
earthly things, in Momphis,->*<ronn., on
Tuesday morning, November 5, between
tho hours of 9 and 10 o'clock. His Of ty
years' experience upon this mundane
sphere, in tho social amenities of lifo,
mado him beloved, admired and sought by
ali who knew him. His conversational
powers were great: his manners modest
and unobtrusive; his heart over strolled
and respondod to thoso emotions which
adorn the human kind. Rut, apart from
thoso social qualities, he was pre-eminent?
ly great as au artist. A thorough disciple
of Michael Angelo-faithful alway? to na?
ture-Ruskin would have loved him. His
large brain worked in and found pleasure
in tho forming of cold marble to tho warm
imagos of the eyo. Tho Washington
monument, in the oity of that name, and
tho grand ostensi?n of tbe post office build?
ing, ni the same city, attest the greatness
of his powers as a genius. But the crown?
ing work of bis lifo was tho erection of tho
State Houso at Columbia, South Carolina.
In compactness, beauty, and in fact every?
thing pertaining to building skill, this
work of his had no equal on the broad
American continont. Wo say had, bocauso
Sherman and his bummers (wo call them
thieve.-,) dostroyed it during his famous
raid. In our boyhood, during his resi?
dence in Washington, wo formed his ac?
quaintance. Wo began to lovo him then
and have over continued to do so up to the
hour of his suddou demise, from that tor
riblo enemy known as consumption. He
is dead, but his memory is over dear.

Oar streets, yesterday, reminded
one of the ''Days of auld langsyne,"
when railroads were scarce. There
(Were wagons to right of ns, wagons
to lefyuf na, wagons in front of ns,
and Wagons all around; and, as a
consequence, bartering has been
going on briskly, and the merchants
claim to have done the beat business
pf the season. Hope to be able to
repnrt a continuance of the same.
IMPROVING.-Yesterday morning, !
an unfortunate butcher in our mar?
ket, lost the profits on a pig whioh
he had sausaged, by the following
sharp practico: An individual pur?
chased a quarter's worth of the afore?
said sausage meat, handed over a $5
greeny; and as the sausage man
could not maka the chingo readily,
the purchaser said he would call for
it in a few minutes. During his
absence, a freedman approached the
vender and asked for his change ;
and the former, without notioing the
individual, passed over $4.75. In a
short time, Sambo No. 1 returned,
and claimed his ohange. The sausage
vender discovered hie error, and
forced to pay the money,a second
time. In the meantime, No. 2 made
himself scarce.
