PITrsBURG, Feb. 24.-The county indignation
meeting held here last night on the subject Of the

Three hundred persons in all principally Wings
and Native Americans, assembled Resolutions
favoring western candidate, but nominating none,
were read but not acted on.
Mr.. Smith, a representative Of the Legislature,
rose amidst loud calls, and defended himself lusti-
ly for supporting Mr.. Cameron. During the speech
he was frequently greeted with Kisses, applause,
taunts, &c.
Subsequently, Mr.. Foster, the editor Of the Dis
patch, offered resolutions recommending new man,
untainted with politics.
