Sgecial Despateh to The Chicago Tribune, _onnm, 111, Oct. 19.—Senator Morton, of* In- diana, addressed 2 moderately sized audience here this evening, on the political issues of the day. He devoted the principal part of his speech to reviewing Horace Greeloy's record, and defending General Grant's, The straighout Democratic ticket nominated here Thureday is thinning out wonderfully. Two of the candidates have come out with letiers of declination, 2nd the balance are expected to. g VIEWS OF HORATIO SEYMOU . MAYORALTY. Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune, Rew Yorg, Oct. 19.—Governor' Horatio Sey- mour made 5 specch, yeeterday, at Whitestown, Oneida County, in this State, in which be said: ¢ There wore good and sufficient reasons, in the present condition of the country, fo canse =il right-minded men, and honest men, to work unitedly for reform in the administration of public affairs, not only in Washington, but the whole community, The fact that Ohio and Penn- sylvaninhave votod against us, did not weaken his position, and diecourage him' in hiu belief and confidence that the principles of right and jus- tice would, in the end, triumph. The honest people of the country did not enter into tha present contest merely to elect a President, but to institute a reform which would be beneficial to the National, State, and Local Administra- tions, This must bo done quietly and effectively, We don't want violent resolutions to injuri~ ously sffect tho business intorests of the Gove ernment. The principles upon which honest Remocrats 2nd respectable men of no party have united, will continue to_claim the_attention of the people more closoly every day to come. Every man, woman and child is affected by the qluastions which now agitate the country, and all are intercsted in the matter of reform. Ten or fifteen years 230, the men who possessed money gained by dishonest means,—stolen from the Government or obtained by private or public fnmbfing,—would be looked upon with con- empt by all respecsblo people. Now the man who steals thozsands or millions of dollars from the peo{le's treasury bes his respoctability mengured by the amount " Lie has plundored, and public thieves and defaulters now foat upon the topmost wave of popularity. We must have a change to correct these evils, o8 no party ever succeeded in reforming itself. The Republican party told the Democracy this truth a few yeara £go, and triumphed ; and now we say the same thing to them. You cannot reform yourselves. We mover will have a Testoration of good order in the community and economy in the administration of public affairs until we have a change. Never before havesuch vast sums of money passed throagh the hands of publio ofiicials as bave been handled by them Eince the commencement of the war. In the present condition of public opinion the rense of ight is binnted and hardened by the frequency with which the peopla’s ears are greeted with the HE NEW YORK information of government defalcationa, This unfortunate condition of affeirs is the resnlf of ublic affaira as they_have existed for the Jast cight or ten years. We muet commence our reform in earnest from the emallest local offices, until we reach the Presidential chair. The reform must be general in gll classes of society, until the botter sense of the Eenpla in the matier of honesty, justice, and truth prevails and triumphs. The Democratio party Bad united with the honest men of 2 party which never was frisndly to ours in the suppors of Horaco Greeley, who has always been an enemy to ug, for the purpose of bringing abous reform, ond they asked all honest men to co- operato with them.” The nomination of Mr. Havemyor for Mayor, to-night, by the Republican Convention, will bs followed, next week, by his indorsement by the Committee of Seventy. Themicroscopic O'Con- orclique is 2lso ont_for Havemyer, whose let- ter in advance declining the honor is understood to have been Pickwickian, It is now gettled that tho contest for Mayor will ba triangular. The reform Tammany candidates, TLawrence, and the Republican candidate, Have. myer, ero both old citizeus of wealth and re- spoctability. Jimmy O'Brien feels confident that Lo will win the prize with two men opposed to him to divide the votes of thoso who desire a de- cent and horest administrption. All the worst clements of Thweed's rel ore rallied around OQ'Brien, and Havemyer's nomination plainly doubles kis chance of succt For this friendly 1ift from Tom. Murphy, Jimmy will march bis 5\3 1la army to the polls to vote for Grant and ix. GRANT AND GREELEY CONTRASTED, Special Despateh to The Clicago 7 New Yomk, Oct. 19.—Inen editorial contrast Letween Grant and Greeley tho 1orid comes to this conclasion : “ Nothing could be more safe for every public interest, nothing could so surely purify the public service, 2s the election of Alr. Greeleyin ihis conjunction. Sofar =s Iegielation is concerned, Greeley would be the eafer President. He wouldbe as intelligent znd original g8 Grant is stolid and apathetic; end o hostile Congress, alert o detect his mistakes, if he ghould fsll into any, would be o safeguerd zainst bad legislation. by Exccutive pressurc. is not eluggish and caseloving, prone to shirk dulies, aud spend- his time in recreation. He is the mogt resolutely industrious men in the conntry. If Mr. Greeley were President, it i5 not in his nature to let any department of the public service run on as Orant does, without close, unremitting supervision. He probably lnows more men than any other citizen of the United States. The personal dis- cussions with which he enlivened the politics of the Tribune attest his Licen interestin the character of public men, and the minute abund- ance of that kind of information which the cast of his mind leads Lim to acquire. He hag looked quite throngh the deeds and character of every prominent man, and most of the minor oliticians in every part of tho country. Mr. ireeley would have the greab advantage over most Presidents that he conld make nearly all important appointments from Lis own personal kmowledgo, instead of being serionsly dopend- ttz_nt on members of Congress and political par- i8ans. LEGISLATIVE CONVENTION AT GENEVA, ILL. Speciat Despatch to The Chicago Tribune.

O tho secord ballot James Herrington re- ceived 81 votes, and, on motion of Mr. Reaves, of Aurora, Liie nomination wes made unanimous.

Whereupon Mr. Murray's nomination was made unanimous. Short speeches were then made by Messrs. Herrington and Murray, who pledged themeclves for Trumbull, The Hon. J. C. Stoughton was introduced to the Convention, and made o rousing speech in the interest of Greeley and Reform, assuring the Liberals_present of the determination of their fellow-laborers throughout “the country to adhere, now and henceforward, beyond the No- vember milestone, if need be, to those glori- ous principles involved in the breaking up of ihe present system of administration of the Government. The Liberal Central Com- mittee of 1873 cmnexiseu the following named entlemen : B. F. I'ridley and Dr. Pattereon, of ane, and Jno. Haight, ot Dupege. MISSOURI'S BOURBON CIRCULAR, 8.

Glover, Charles Speck, Thomas Gantt, Henry J. Spoon- horst, Gerard B. Allen, Carl Daenzer, Oscar W. Calla, and A. W. Kellsey, sll of St. Louis, will publish an address to-morrow, presenting to the citizens of Miesouri the names of O'Conor and Adams for President and Vice President, as aleo a full Electoral ticket, embracing the nsmes of several quite Pprominent citizens of St. Louis and the State. "The addrees reviws tho Reform movement, de- clares it a failure; states that there is no cendi- date now in the field that represents it or the Democratic party, and closes as follows: W reat opportunity has been lost by bad counsels—a grent causo betrayed by selfigh in- triguers. It is possibly too late to retrieve false stepe. It is not too Iate to record a solemn _protest against fraud and treach- ery. It is mpever too lato to raise a -voice fo behalf of truth and Jjustice. DBy rallying to the support of O’Conor and Adams e shall testify to our devotion to rinciple. We skall maintain the existence of a onstitutional party resolutely determined to correct abuacs, brine back purity to_ the- Adwin- istration, and uphold the libertics of the people.

Maury, of the i army, was one of the speakers at the Republi- can meeting. NEW YORK. FINANCIAL REVIEW. New Yorg, Oct. 19.—During the past week, financial events were important in several re- spects. The monetary situation has been char- ecterized by easo for call loans, which have ranged from 4 t0 7 por cent, with occesional ox- ceptions at lower rates. Prime business notes bave been dizcounted in open market at 9 to 12 per cont. Foroign exchanges wero generally firm, until near tho close, when the borrowing rates for cash gold had a tendency to weaken the market, In the Gold Room the price has fluctuated be~ tween 1124£ and 1133, closing with a firm feel~ ing. Speculstion on the Stock Eschange has been active and excited, with frequent anad vio- lent fuctaations in some shares. During the first two days of the week buoyancy provailed in a marked degree, but sfterwards thore wasa eharp reaction, followed by an upward move- ment and irregular market to thie close. Pacific Mail has been the leading fesiure throughout tho . week, and has controlled, to a con- siderable extent, the geneial market. The advance in Pacific Mail for the week was 153 per cent, rising from 85 to 100%/. Tha intermedinte fluctuntions have been wide and frequent, while dealings bave been on au enor- mons scale. Panama advanced 4 per cent, and afterward lost part of the improvement. Can- ton advanced 6 per cent, from 96 to 102, West- ern Union advanced 33{ per cent, and closed with a reaction of 13 per cent. Rock Island advanced 8 per cent, and finally lcst the ad- vance. Erie advanced 8}¢ per cent, and, later, reacted about 21¢ per cent. Tho balance of the list advanced from 1 to 3 per cent, and toward the close lost the advauce. In some stocks the lowest prices of the week were current ot the closo. The foreign commerce afsthe port for the week was as follows : Generil merchandize im- | ports, including ary goods, §5,801,107 ; produce exports, $6,114,056, and specie exports, 9626,- 888, The total merchendize imports since Jan. 1 were 355,230,404, against $305,090,256 lnst year. The total exports of produce since Jan. 1 are $188,703,156, againat $189,088,795 lost yoor. The exports of specie since Jan. 1 are $59,859,- 495, against $61,717,546 lnst year. Private advices from Loadon to-day reported monoy active in the open market, and following close upon this were rumors thaf the Bank of England Directors would meet on Mondey end advance the rate of dis- countto 7 percent, Late in the day special tel- egrams stated that tho Bank of France will de- posit one hundred million francs in the Bank of England. One suthority stated that this was a movement of assistanco, while another had it that it was an exchange transaction in connec- tion withthe French Indemnity, at the close every one geemed to be puzzledin regard fo all these roported financial movements abroad, and nothing was apparently known here, even by those nsually well posted. The bank-statement is favorable. Itshowa’ that the banks have made a net gain of $4,412,- 075 in their legal meserve. Thoy now hold £8,027,475 above the 25 por cent required by law. CLOSING RATES. Doney was more active at intervals to-day, and ranged from 4 to 7 per cent. Foreign exchango closed up quiet at 10854 to 1088 for sixty-day, and 11035 to 110X for sight. Gold was firm early in the day, and advanced from 1123( to 11335, but in the afternoon there was a decline to 11275, followed by a rally to 1183, The stdck market to-day was irregular ; being higher in Pacific Mail, and lower in tho general list. Pacific Mail opened at 95, advanced to 96, declined to 93}, advanced to 99, reacted to 9514, and finally advanced to 100%¢. In tho general list thero was a decline of from 3{ to 23 per cent early in the dey, but during the aflernaon ‘thero was a partial recovery. Western Union declined from 78 to 753, and then recovered to 773, closing at76}4. _ Chicago, Columbus & In- ‘diava Central declined from 338 to 33%, end rallied to 84%4. Rock Island declined from 111}¢ to 1095, and later recovered to 11054, Erie de- clined from 507 to 4914, and rallied at the close t0 50%. Union Pacific declined from 3934 to 37%, and afterwards adsanced to 8887, North- western common and Ohios declined 134 per cent, and rallied about 1 per cent at the close. New York Central and Wabash fell off 1 per cent, and recovered part of the decline late in the doy. * Other fluctuations were about X{ to 3¢ per cent, and generally unimportant. The market was affected by the reports about the financisl situation in Europe. Government bonds were quiet scd steady. Central Pacific bonds closed at 100@100%; TUnion Pacific firsts, 88%@89; land grants, 7i@ 7734 ; incomes, 8034@80%4. BREADSTUFES, Flour very dull and irregular. Low grades more_plenty and easier; fancy grades in re- duced supply, and very choice higher and in good demand. No. 2 end “superfino dull and heavy: At the close tho market was weak forlow grades, with a moderate inquiry ; choice family strong. Holders of wheat were firm, but buyers hold off. Arrivals light and stock of winter very limited, Alarket closes steady for spring, firm for winter, and fairly active. Demand chiefly for export. 4 PROVISIONS.

It is reported that a new indictment has been found egainst Imgersoll, the famous chair- maker of the Ring. Mayor Hell last evening stated that he had heard nothiog of any new indictment agninst bim, and tho report that he had given bail was therefore false. It is possibls that he thinks that tho oly indictment mey be omnibused, 2s he himself wishes. Ho courts inquiry into his ofticial conduct, either in Court or elsewhare. It is stated by partics conversant with the cheracter of the last indictment against Tweed that that personage is fully eware of its ability to convict him; that he has tcken steps io avoid an arrest, and that his- flight from the country, if it hes not actually taken place, is o arranged that it will speedily occur, 2and in such & manner as to elude the officers of the lew. Tveed Lias not yet put in an appearance with his bail. As it is oot probablo any Supreme ‘Court Judge can be found on the bench to-day, he will etay at Greenwich, Conn., where be is supposed to_be, till Monday. Rumors are current that an ex-Skeriff has been intlicted for presenting illegal bills to the old Board of Audit.

Ropes advocated the pasango of ‘the reso- Tution, ily. Vinal, of Boston, opposed it, seying he did not believe we could have better money than greenbacks. His remedy was to compel the Na- tionsl Banks to redeem, overy three months, 5 per cant of their circulation. Mr. Chittenden, of New York, moved an smendment, asking Congress for a rovision of the National Bank system, looking to the ulti- mate_resumption of specie poyment.

Buaby, of Philadelphis, moved zn amend- ment, asking for a system of Ireo irade in bank- ing. AlIr, Fairbunk, of Chicago, eaid there was not money enough in circulation. That was the re- sult of the contraction of £15,000,000, in 3 per cents, last year. He hoped they would not reaf- firm the doctrine of contraction. ir. Chittenden said resumption must be songht for. The Secretary of tho given to understand that the commerce of the country will tolcrate nothing lcas.. Mr. Cook, of Cincinnati, said there wes too much of what is celled money in the country, and not enough morey. The greenback is a dis- honored piece of paper.
