106 ESSAYS, POLITICAL AND HISTORICAL British cruisers took from American vessels on the high seas naturalized American citizens and im- pressed them into her navy, on the ground that they were British subjects by birth and that no forms gone through with in America could divest them of their British nationality.
Lord Granville had stated this doctrine as early as 1797, as follows : "No British subject can, by such a form of renunciation as that which is prescribed in the American law of natural
...ization, divest him- self of his allegiance to his Sovereign. Such a declaration of renunciation made by any of the King's subjects would, instead of operating as a protection to them, be considered an act highly criminal on their part. " But Mr. Monroe wrote to the British Minister in Washington, in 1812: "It is impossible for the United States to discriminate between their native and natural- ized citizens. " And some forty years later Mr. Seward adhered to the principle of our Government: ' ' That it is the right of every human being, who is neither convicted nor accused of crime, to renounce his home and native allegiance and seek a new home and transfer his allegiance to 107 ESSAYS, POLITICAL AND HISTORICAL any other nation that he may choose ; and that, having made and perfected that choice in good faith, and still adhering to it in good faith, he shall be entitled from his new Sovereign to the same protection under the laws of nations that that Sovereign lawfully extends to his native subjects or citizens.
