We have clippings before from the Wing presses
Of Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, &c,
upon Mr.. Wrbsier's Speech, that would fill several
columns. We shall nuke some extracts FIR our next
paper. The great and decided impression among them

under MIR. Tyler dennunne him. and give in his ad

has comn'tts The objectionable sln-and many ofthem
are denouncng him liz no very measured terms Some
idea OF the fleet of this speech upon the Clay Wings
