ji tier* anything in the Catolic Religion unfaTora* ble to Freedom. Henry Clay said not. The following is an extract from t speech on th •emancipation of South Americans, de livered ly him in the House of Representatives, March •j4tli 1818 : “Disperse over such an immense apace as that on which the people.of Spanish America are spread, their physical, and 1 believe also their moral condition, both favor dieir liberty. •With regard to their superstition, they worship the senile Cod with us. Their prayers are offered up in their temples to the same Redeemer, whose intercession we expect to save us. Nor is there anything iu the Catholic religion unfavorable to freedom; all religion united with governments are more or less inimical to liberty, all se rrated from government are compatible with liberty. If the people of Spanish America have not already gone as far, in religious toleration, as we have, the different*# in their condition from ours should not be forgotten. Everything is progressive ; aod in time I hope to see them imitating in this respect our examples.” The Sale of Land, ‘Warrants. —The tranactions in land warrants are very large in all quraters at this time, I uli lour thousand acres per day are sold on the average in Wall street, New York, which is remitted lor in gold coin from the West, and being on account of old soldiers, finds its way into immediate circulation.
