The following precedes, in the Maryland Journal, Mr. Swanwick's speech against the treaty.
[In public speaking, it is a just rule to pay attention not only to what is spoken, but to the character of the orator himself. As a commercial man, as possessing a foreign correspondence on the most extensive scale, and a degree of mercantile information equalled by very few citizens of the United States, and exceeded by none, the opinions and sentiments of Mr. Swanwick deserve more than common regard. Before arriving almost at the middle of life, he has by industry acquired a very ample fortune, and without a blemish on his name.]
