Beslkles Represcntatives Danks and Butler, whose specches are sketched below, the tables were surrounded by prominent official and unofliclal gentlemen of both partles, fncluding Repre- sentatives Fleld and Morse, Benjamin Dean, Witiam W.

Bmler} of the spcech which I made last week, of which you may have heard. Perhaps if the critics understood thelr subject properly, they might not have been s0 savage in nunuL inr what was merely an_expression of my own conscientiously-fornied opinlons. 1 spoke what J then thouglt true; and the events of the past ‘weck—thouy don't pretond to be a prophet— liave proved it tobo true. No man, however honest, good, and well-intentloned, can ride two horscs at the same time, which are going in aifferent dlrectfons, It requires a well-trained horseman to be cqual to the task of rldlnfi two horses when thev are going o the same direc- tion, fhave sald this before, ana Lam glad that §t has been echoed back In many a fervent admonition to the President. [Laughter.| He must adhere to one party or the other; I even learn by authority ‘that 1t has been declared “In - tho Uabioet that the Ad- ministration proposes hereafter to ad- here harmoniously to the Republicun party. There may, perhavs, be some lttle diffi- cuity about Mr. Key; but 11 no doubt he Is quite as good a Republican as some of his col- leagues, and he Is an honest gentleman, of hon- est Intentions. ‘There is another good sigu from the Cabinet. Some time ago [ had the pleasure 1o find mysclf certified to by a member of the Cabinet, according to a vaper, ns belng a Repub- ilcan of the first water. Now that has some. times, [ belleve, been doubted [laughter], but 1t comes certified by the Secretary of State, the highest officer in tho Cabinet, The General read the romark nttributed to Mr. Evarts concerning the Republicanism in which he bprofesses his teadiness to pass the test with * Ben Butler on_this issue of fidelity to party, and sald: * There aro only two reasons for doubtiue this statement. Ono Is that I found it In the Jour- nal; the sccond is the finprobability that Becre- tary Evarts, in speaking of his harinonjous rela- tlois with tho Republican party, should speak of comparlug himscll fn that reapect with * Ben ! Butler, I doubt it Mr. Evarts spoke fn that vm{. Hels o gentleman of culture and right feeling [laughter], and ho could not have used that phraso about tne. Now I have no objection 10 it, but L object to his using ft. [Laughter. ‘Ben’ is & term of endeannent. [Luugnter., My motlier always called me Ben when I be- haved well; when I did_uot she rolled out the whole Benjamin, Mr. Evorts says that [ called him a Domocrat. [ made no mention of him at all. I sald that the malority of the Cabtnet were not recognized Republicous. I the man's conscience rehukes i the matter muat be left to him, and not to e, for I never called his naine, but shnply n’mk»nr the mnjority of the Cabluat. But perhups he calls hiiuself u ma- jority of the Cabinet, Now, he compares my reputatiou as n Republican with his. Very wel When a man wishus to muke n doubtful thin out of a good oue, he aiwavs takes the hest spezimen to_compare it with, of courss, } Laugbter,] He may hold up s Republican- 3nr, 1 know that inine will not comparo with Jila fn point of age, hecause npt .4 great while ozo Iwas a Democrat. On tfis Lmhu. there- fore, he tay certifs himsell as being as con- sistent o Republtean as Ben Butler. Very well, Later, however, there was another difference uf opinfon Letween us, when ba was Attorney- (iaueral for Audrew Johusun, Who ‘was Re- ublican und who was anti-Repunlican thenl ut this article shuws, not e, Evarts only, but the Cobinet, as most rigidly Hufuubllcun. in sympathy with the party o the fulfest sense of the term.

Now thers hiny been another criticlsm made unon my specch,—that it Is casy to find fault, but digticuit to suggest a differont course.

But the trouble ia uol aver-production, ‘it s underconsumption. One of my fricnds says he don't see any differ- ence. Oser-production would be the protduction of more boots than could be worn, under-con- sumption would be the production of more than a starving people could buy and pay (ur. The granurics of the West. are "bursting with grain, the warchouses of the East are crowded with goods, And yet the rallroads, Whose ruanagers are aching to varry theso goods, are coustantly failiug and passing into the hanids of first, and second, ond third mortedgees, Yot why cannot iheso two thinga get together? 1t iy not be- cause of a bard money market, for the banks tinve abundance_ to” loan, aud huve to return to the Treasury inoney on which they can realizo no interest. [t is’ because when the food gets here from the West, the people. have nuthing to buy with, and the clothiug which tho starving and shivering peo- pleof the Northwest need they cannot have, because they cannot pay for It.

Arc you aware that thres or four millions of War premiums yet unpaid on the Alabamy clalins are in davger of being lost, and not only of belng lost, but that a’large sum In addition must go! The General cous- tically revlewed the work of the Iallfax Cowm- missfon, ssvibg that our Goverment las beun outwlitted into paylng §5,500.000 for the rizght to tish for swhnming s withio a marine league of the Canadian shores whon the most exorbjtant demands of Nova Scotia never ap- proached in exaction the fntercst fund now re- uired.

N. I, Banks, **the patron saint of the Club," was next introduced. He remarked that he certalnly bad no desire to euter into a dis- cusslon with hiscalieague, for whom he hud tho bighest respeet. They bud not always held opintons in full oecord, but when the: had agreed the; azreed cordially, ani when they differed they differed carnestiy— as might be kuown. He had no doubt of the legality and sufliciency of the Preal. dent’s title, mid never had; and if there lnd Lecn negotiations or bargoining with peopls of the Southern section of the country, as hed been charged, In ordur that the title” might be conflrted or enforeed, ho betleved it necessury, Ho held that tha Rebels at the Seuth shouid uever have becu given the power to overtlrow the Government. He would have adopted a different plan of reconstruction, perbaps sufler- ing but oug or two States to cowe back ol a thme, and those under such conditions na should forever prevent dabger. But the Government has saved us thus tar from thelr machinations, und would save us, He believed It was u ol doverninent, and had vo sympathy with those who decrled it. In rezard to tho Tlslicry ques- tion, Gens Banks sald he differed from his colleague, When natlons made e they were to be respected. Although wi been bheated In the awurds under the Washington treaty, the faith "of the natlon bLad been pledged, and he belleved it to be the duty of Congressmen to vote for an ap- ropristion to pay the award of tho Flsher, t‘ummlualun. The fuct was, we had been sol out when we sgreed to take money In pay- ment for the outrages of tho Alabama and other cruisers, Our demand should hive beets for the removal of the Britih flag irom Awer- feau soll, 50 thiat the whoie of America should be ruled by o Governnent ot fts own peonle. When nations begin to sell their rights and honor for money, they are s get ciweated sooner or later; and so the Yankes, shrewd as they are, were chested by the country fros which they derived 1l birth and luuguare in the opcratlons of Comtnisslon under the Waalilugton treaty. Tl clatec providing for o connnlesion to settle the tishiery question ap- pudred falr enough. It previded tor the pay- ment to Engiand of whatever the Commission should awurd for the concesslon to thiscountry; urtous by England for the concesaluns by us to her, 10 these appeared the greater, [t'was s llkul{ on the face of things, thit wo should be pald somcthing as that we should be called upon to pay. But the result was that we must pay 3,500,000 for the privileges of cach perfod ol twotve years; and 80, in finlrtr yenrs, we would huve to pay more than the whole sum awarded us for the Ala- bamna claims, The General did not consider that sllver bad been demonetized, The laws of 1878 neglucted Lo provide fur silver coluuge, It wis truey but Jt did vot deonetize the siiver already colued, ‘There was sumie $3,000,000 or 39,000,000 of this, ant whoever possessed it had o right to pay his debts with it. It was still a legul-tendet; the sliver dollar 1s still o guod doliar.

Could they b ut realize the smount of bulliou that pusses through that dty daily tu fte way East aug to Europe, and then realize that & thorough, squarely-manaced Mining Exchunge there would trunsfer the homo and ownership of very much of, this bullion to that city, they would loss no thne in supurstiug this hoportant brauch of oucof thu most perfect Anancial sciences ever discuy- ered, Our wiving luterests on the Westeru border are as extensive and valuable as those of the Puctile Slope, ave speut gowe twenty years! practical ecperlence by Wtk rogious, and now what 1w talkiug of. 1 was in’ San Frau- cifvo belore sud st the time of thelr formiug mintog exchuuges, and there saw winig (nter- ests belug peddied sud bawked about, the sume o> 13 befug done uow ou this side of the wount- ains fu our larger citles, The Minlog Exchange there systewatized and perfected the whols busiuvss, and has sluce been the wedium that Lias Lrouazbt to Huht over $200,000,000 ju bullion, 18 the books uf the express compaules show, Auy Culltorulan will tell vou that but for the Mintng Exchauge over three-fuurths of thls would stll] be in the earth, What would Sau Frauclseo be with her wioing interests ex- buuged! The Palace Hotel w various other palatial fnstitutious are the fruits of ber Miulug Exchange, as well alres, 3 Flood aud O'Bricn, unly becwue promdoent swd I s wre most of ber wilhon- ators Joues and_ Sharon, of Nevada, ant scores of others, 1nfucutial through tous results of the Miuing Excuause. Where the Exchange is, thero wili the bLulk of the wines eoveutually bo owned; and -where owned, and the offlces located, there will the mines receive thelr cantrol and direction from: there wiil the pro- ceeds go; and there will the supplies of mer- chandize and machinery be obtatned, In splte of fate. Does not the wealth from the Lake 2u- perior mines go to New York, Boston, and Eu- ropel and do not the profits of Colifornia, Ne- vada, Idaho, and Arizona_mines centre In ana build ur Ban Franciseo? Why! Because of the Minin, nd wealth g Exchange there. erg 2 8an Francisco men are alreadv picking np Blar Hills mincs. Black Hills and Ban_Jian mines can be much better operated from Chicago than Han Francisco, because of distance, frefeht, ete. ‘The mining Interests of our western horder nre vast—vast Indeed. Our people have ohtained their knowicdge of them so gradually that they fail to realiza thelr vast Importance, The mines on our western border, If {n Europe, would be considered wonders, Mining {5 one of if not_the greatest Interest In the United States. Sce how popular_the mines of Pennsylvania are becoming i Wall street. Thev are crowding out ralirosd stocks tapldly, and they afford no such means for pro- ducing raplt wealth as our mines of preclous metals on the western border, 1 am pleased to sca Chicago moviug In this matter, aven though 1am not a citizen of theeity. I know we have numerous zood mines suffering for ald from s financial science of this nature to make them dispense thelr blessinzs to our tolling peonle. Thia little city fa moving strongly for & Mintng Ezchaoge here, with H. M. Holden, of the First Natiunal Bank, Mastins, Van Horn, and some twenty of the best men in the city. They be- gin to see the finportance of the enterprise, but the new Constitution of this 8tate {s n barrier. Bull I think it will go: but Chicago oneht to distance her In the race. A Mining Exchange will centre more weaith and business men In Chicago than any one thing she ever adapted.
