The liberty Of the press appears to occasion
infinite trouble every where except in the Uni
ted States. In Buenos Ayres, the government
Of the new republic undertook to establish the
freedom ofthe press in country where it never
before existed; but no sooner had Tie press
made use of its freedom, to comment upon DO
ltical matters, than the government had sent
message to the Legislature, demanding that
restrictions be imposed upon it.

INDIANA FREE BANKs.-Panic in Louisville.
The Louisville Journal Of the 18th ult., says,
a good deal Of CONSERVATION was caused on
Saturday by the refusal of the brokers and Tile
merchants Of the notes Of the Indiana free
banks. They had been refused day oil two
previous, but it was not generally known. The
brokers refused to take the notes at any price.
The cause of thisis that large amount Of this
money is now held by the brokers and the bust
ness community, and the banks decline to re-
deem it themselves, or convert it into eastern
exchange, unless at a heavy discount. The
banks will probably make some arrangement
for its redemption, and wind up Every dol
lar issued is pledged by State stock in ehands
Of the auditor Of State, and we would there
tore advise holders not to submit to any saeri-
nee. Holders may be compelled to submit to
some delay before they receive actual value.
