We copy from the National Intelgenccr the Speech
OF Mr. Rves, Of Virginia, in the Senate, support OF
series OF resolutions offered by himself, calling for IN
formation touching the relations OF the National Govern
ment with the United States Bank. The speech Is an
admirable specimen OF parliamentary eoquence, and
will be read with great interest well by those who do
not participate in oil its sentiments as by those who
agree entirely with the Senator While We are among
those who dissent from Mr. Ryos in his opposition 70

the fearless inanper in which he has sssaed the adn

MR.. RIVES,

The ground which Mr. Riyes has taken in his re-
speech in the Senate places his position beyond
all doubt Whatever may be said of the soundness
Of Mr.. RS political opinions there can be no dispute
about his consistency. He stands on precisely the
same ground now, which he, together with all the
then Administration party, occupied, few years
ago He was an advocate Of the State Bank syS-
TEN then and he is still its advocate. At that time
he was the strenuous opponent Of the Sub-Treasury
scheme; to-day finds him sill its uncompromisng
enemy The new lights which have broken in upon
the Administration party have had no effect upon
his vision. Uninauonced BY the example OF large
majority Of his former friends, and confding in the
reclitude of his motives he stands calm and immo-
vabe amidst the storms Of party and the rage Of OPP
posing factions ready 10 assist the right and battle
against the acroRg on whatever side found.
Ills enquiries into the present relations between
the Government and the Pennsylvania Bank of the
United States were such as the occasion demanded,
and such as Mr.. Riyes could, with especial propri-
ety. make Having acted with the government in
putting down the old Bank, and having agreed with
as to the dangerous nature and powers Of the State
Institution TO which the Stock of that Bank was
sold nothing could be more reasonable than for him
10 enquire whether the government was pursuing
consistent course In the premises. He had right
to ask whether or not the government, after all us
hostiltyto banks in gepsra was not, at that moment,
making an agent Of TINS very bank which II had
particularly singled ont as the object OF its enmy
Because of these reasonable and proper enquiries,
the whole government pack have opened afresh upon
Mr. RiveS and have impudently charged him with
the very inconsistency Of which they themselves
have been so Shamefuliy guilty. These remarks
are dictated by a sense Of sheer justice.
