What othr nation, call rel.giouf tolrrUion we call religion rights, I bey are not exercised in virtue of governmental indulgence, but as rights, of which government canuot deprive any portion of ciiz iks however small. Despotic power my invado those rights, but justice still confirms them. Let the national legislature once perforce an act which involves the decision of a religious controversy, and it will have passed its Hgitimite bound. The precedent will then be established, and the foundation laid for that usurpation of the Divine prerogative in this country, which has been the desolating scourge to the fairest portions of the old world. Our Constitution recognises no other power than that of persuasion, for enforcing religious observances. Let the professors of Christianity recommend their religion by deeds of benevolence by Christian meekness by lives of temperance and holmes. Let them combine their efforts to instruct the ignorant to relieve the widow aid the orphan to promulgate to the world the gospel of their

Saviour, recommending its precepts by their habitual example: government will tiad its legitimate object in protecting tlwm. It cannot oppose them, and they will not need its aid. Their moral influence will then do infinitely more 10 advance the true interest of religion, than any measures which. they may call on Congress to enact.

Tne petitioners do not complain of

any infringement upon their own right-. They enjoy all that Christians ought to ask at the hand of any government protection from all molestation in the exercise of their religious sentiments. Resolved, That the Committee he discharged from the further consideration of the subject.

the special orders of the day, the first of . . . . . r

which was the bill to continue in torce an act to authorize the City of Washington to draw Lotteries. Some discussion ensued upon this bill, which was opposed by Mr. WickliiTe, and also by Mr. Sergeant, chiefly on the ground of the pernicious consequences to the public morals which would result from giving a legislative sanction to a species of gambling so ruinous, and so manifestly on the increase. The bill was then recommitted to the Committee on the District of Columbia, with instructions to report a provision prohibiting the sale of lotterytickets in the District. The House then resumed the consideration of the bill for the relief of Harris and Farrow, which was not disposed of when the House ad journed.

Mr. Gideon Long, of Butler ccunty, raised a hog which he sold a few weeks since to John Denman, of his neighborhood, for sixty six dollars. He was shortly afterwards offered forty dollar? for his bargain; but determined to lake it to Cincinnati, he put it on board of a canal boat for that place. On his route without his knowledge, the hands on board exhibited it as a showr charging 6 1-4 cents for a sight. When he arrived at the city, an immense crowd visited it and pai Lfor the sight.
