RELIGIOUS FREEDOM IN TURKBY.—A correspondent
has sent us a statement which tends to prove the good
faith of the Turkish Government in carrying out the
religious liberty guaranteed both to Christians and Ma.
homedane. At Constantinople a Turk and his wife and
child have been baptized by the American missionary,
Dr. Hamelin, with the name of " Freeman." It
appears that on the 3d inst. two officers of the Porte
went to the office of Dr. Hamelin, after previous notice,
to investigate the case of the Freemen family, converted
from Mahomedanism to Christianity. Dr. Hamelin at
first demurred, but a strict examination took place.
The officers of the Porte ex ,mined Mr. Freeman.
The object was to ascertain whether he bad been
driven from Islamism to Chri.tianity by any trouble or
supposed wrongs, but the answers were deemed satisfac-
tory by the Turkish authorities. Mrs. Freeman was
then subjected to the same ordeal, after which it was
arranged that the Turkish lady and her daughter should
have an interview together. The result convinced Dr.
Hamelin that there was no compulsion in the case, and
the ceremony was therefore performed. The account
adds, "It is the will of his Majesty our Sovereign, and
it has become the established law of the empire, tbat
every subject without any exception shall enjoy entire
religious freedom. The Mussulman is now as free to
become a Christian as the Christian is free to become
Nrubsulman." Two days previously Dr. Hamelin mar-
ried a young Protestant Armenian to a Turkish lady
who had been baptised in Malta.
