orth Carolina, where I have resided ever since. I married in North Carolina: all my property is here; am an acting Justice of the Peace in Yadkin, and have been for many years, and have held offices of trust and profit under the State, and have repeatedly sworn allegiance to North Carolina.

Yadkin, N. C., Aug. 24, 1861. Richmond Hill, Aug. 26, 1861. James R.

After that act, you no longer owed allegiance to the State of New York--the State of North Carolina was then entitled to your allegiance, as of right. The facts stated by you — holding office of trust and profit, being now an acting Justice of the Peace, &c.,--have an important bearing, and furnish unequivocal evidence of the intention to become a citizen of his State. When a foreigner, a citizen of France, for instance, removed to the United States, although with an intention of remaining permanently and becoming a citizen, he did not become a citizen until naturalized according to the forms required by law. But when a citizen of one of the States of the United States removed to another of the States with a like intention, his purpose was, ipso facto, accomplished. There being no law requiring any particular mode of proceeding in order to his naturalization, his act of election had the legal
