Speech Of o. H. Sm;ta-A late No. Of the Ma
,ionai Intel. contains long speech from Mr.
Smith. on the Sub Treasury Bill. The editors Of
the lntelligencer, speaking Of it, make the fo.-
lowing remarks:-
! eff we had had a fingers breadth Of room in
our last paper, would have invited the particu-
lar attention Of readers to the excellent speech
Of Mr. SMITH, OF Indiana, which occupied SO large
portion Of our last number. Tho speech is
emnenily worthy attentive perusal both on
account Of the ability Of the argument, and OF
the mass of political history which it emhodics,
of description particularly valuable at the pre-
sen. inoment.'
We should be pleased 70 give it an entire inser-
ton in our paper, but lis great length renders 1t
entirely impossible for Us to do So IT printed IN
pamphlet form, we hope Mr.. Smith will be liberal
in circulating it throughout the state.
We have also received copy of Mr. Tipton's
speech .n the Bill granting presumption rights to

yiyed. The idea Of his being candidate,
secuted at with affected contempt by them, scarce
a wear before the election. But what a change
came Ger the spirit of their sony, when they
heard of his success in the con,cst--when they

PENNSYLVANIA, of Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana. and
other states not less patriotic. We know not
that Gen. Harrison will receive the nomination OF
the Whig Nationa! Convention; but this we do
know, that he has many friends who will sustain
him, until a nomination be made; and then, should
he not be the nominee, they will, in considera-
ton Of their duty to thoir ccun,ry-their eternal
opposition to the destructive principles of Van
Burcnisrn, support any individual thus selected.
