IODGRS' ADDRESS, Iwill proceed with the task before me. In July 1nst, being In Parls, 1 received credentlals from the Board creating me a delegate to the Couference to which I have referred, and which assembled fn that city on the Tth of August last. In my lotter of acceptance of that unex- pected appolutinent I sald: ** Whether It will adrance the intarests of our people to change 1be general tariT laws 5o far s to makea treaty of commerce with a forelen Power is a question of su much natiunal gravity and so diversified fnlts etfects ppon the gencral welfare, aod fn- golses su much Investization, that I must reserve my opinlon upon the wisdom aund erpediency of the act untll I csa ob- taln a better grasp upon the subject thao I pow possess. [ can ouly sy that, gulnk futo the Conference wholly uninstructed by your Board, 1 shinll feel tho greater respoustbility for my words aud votea.” Henge you percelve 1 ace cepted the appointinent and undertook to dls- charze the responsible duties you fmposed on me without conditivus of my own or fustructions from vou. My fiest act was o learn as far as pos- sible with the limlied means at my command 1be extent wnd particulara of the tradiog intor- wourse of the two countries with each ochier, To accoinpitgh this I diligently applled myself to the study and juvestization of the case, and WITI AUCH RESULT 111 shall now proceed to give previous to any discusalon of the question of n trenty. First—1 discovered that the total exchanges of tho two countrics for the tiseal year endlng d0th of June, 1577, wero £00,580,533, and the exports of the United States to Frauce during that year were §16,213,7%), and that ouly $2,000,000 of'this smount were of manufactured goods. Second—That durlng the nmurcrlod the total exchanges between Great Britain and France were about $520,000,000, and that of this sum Great Britain exported to France about $200,- 000,000, chiefly of manufactured izoods, agalost £2,000,000 of stnflar articles cxported by the United Htates to France. Third—That under the Influences of the treaty of commnerce between Frauce and Great Botaln, based on _moiderate turlfls, the aggre- gate [ncrease In the cxports aud imports be- tween the two countrics for the year 1870 over that of 1459, the year previous to” the negotla. tlou of the treaty, was about $103,000,000. Tho decrease in the exports and imports Letween France and the United States, trading with each other under high protective mrm';, was lv;:m o&% corresponding year to the other about Rt . Fourth—That France has two tariffs which differ widely in their rotes. Une {s known us tho tar(f yencral and tho other as the tarif con- ventionne, Tho latter hnd Its origin fn the Cobden-Chevalior Treaty, which was coocluded between France sand Great Britaln in 1860, ‘The nations which have since concluded com- merelal treatics with Franca on the basls of the tarlf conventionne! are Belgium, ftalv, Bwitzer- land, Sweden and Norway, the Netherlands, Portugul, Austria, Turkey, and Germany. ‘Tho commoditics and munufactures of all othep nations fmported into France are subjcct to tho duties provided for in the farlf genera!, The difference In rates between thesu two tarifls may be sufllciently scen by a few cxamples, e TIX DUTIES .

OUTLINES OF A NRW TRREATY, But to the treaty. 1 donot pretend to say that tho project agreed upon, some printed copfes of which [ malled from Parls to Mr. President Miller, in perfect in all fis provisions, On the contrary, I am Inclined to bellove that whon the two Governments shall have sutunit- ted the matterto & practicsl Commission to construct a treaty jtsclf they may discover de- fects in our project which ecscaped our motice and may bring to light some polnts of lmprac- ticability which we nkld not percelve, Our work was conventional afd sugrestive only; we sim- 1y formulated, leaving to dlulumur.-ly and legls.

Why, this conspicuous fact, that our manufactutiug capacity has ontzrown the consumptive demands of the country, e are producing too much of almost every varl- oty ot mapufactured goods, and we have the means of producing with short prepura- tion double the guantity nceded for domestic consumption, If ‘wo would obtain reliel wo must make more foreign outleta for our surplus vroductions. | thiuk that without that there can be no sharp revival ol our national prosper- ity.

DBut we shonld uever cease to prescnt it in different aspects untll the end {8 accomplished. 1 desire to state a few Incontrovertible facts: 1. Labor aud tho products of labor, land and the products of Jaud, now command but little 1t anytbiog over onc-half their former prices, and {n poor demand at that. This is the result of the zold standard which wo have been for some time approsching and are now about euteriug upon, auticipated and discounted by that inexorable law of finance which cousiders that to by wiready done which 1s about to be done. <. Actun) resumption on a gold basis will not change matters, except to [ive tho screw an cxtra turn, because, though tho tssuing of gold and withdrawlog of greenbacks will not chanze the volumu of gbe currency, but inorely causs the gold and greenbacks to change placea for the time being, st most of the gold will ba hoarded, which would not be the case with the RTeenbacks. 3. Whilo ull prices are cut down one-quarter to onc-half, debts and taxcs rowaln the sume, and, as & matter of course, very lttle progress can be mnnde io wipini out debts except by that process now in vogue, which wipes out the dubtors also, Prosperous timer cannol return until the gold baals is abandoned, und » specio basis of gold aad silver js adunted. 4, It this Losis were sdopted fu this country, and we bad six hundred millions of sliver comn, us France bas and as we might have, or even the half of it, prices would st ouco revive, labor nnd property of all kinds would be ju demand, and 1t would agalu be possible for acbtors to vay thelr debts, and save their property in cases whers it has uot already been trausferred to thoe lender, 6. The only possibie way to restore tho speclo baas of gold and silver, and to restore the vqui- Horium aod nwdlty in value of the two teals Is to restore thy freedom of the miats to both equally.

The English and American periodicals devoted to electrical acience now anbounce, **on author ity," that the electric light discovered by Eal- 80n I8 & light by Incandescence. 1f this be true there Is nothing new or startllog elther In the discovery of the light or of |ts divisibility, Lighting by incandescence has been studied for along time; Indeed, It has been studied much more thoroughly than any other kind of clec- tric lighting, Thirty-threo vesrs ago s method of productng and subdividing the light was pat- ented in England by & Mr. King. Thelight was produced by heating to white bieat fn & vacuum, by means of the clectric current, elther pla- tinum or carbons; sad, the specification sdds, * when the curreat s of aufficlent Intensity, twa or a larger number of Iizhts may be placed in the same tircult.” For some years aftcr this discovery several Improvements oo King's invention were patented in America, France, and England; *but,’” says M. Fontaine, * none of these appear more complote, more explicit, and more practicable than King's; it fs, then, useless to cootinue our nomenclature,” The principlo of lighting by Incandescence, although not neelected or forgotten, secms to have made but Mttle progress until 1871, whos M. Lody- fulnu siowed an experiment In the Admiralty Dockyanl in 8t, Petersburg, when ho divided the ufteuit fulo noless than 200lights. ‘This nat. urally made s great sensativn st the time,—as great a sevsaifon as that caused by Mr. Edison’s telegram of tho 7th ult. ‘The” Academy of Hclence awarded to B. Lodywuine the large Lomonossoty prize of 50,000 ruubles. A cou- pany was formed {n 8t. Petersourz with a capl- tal of 200,000 roubles, aud tho cxeltemont in Europe was then almost as groat as bus becn witnessed {o England late- lly. t ‘was soon found, however, that Lodyguine's discoveries, like thoss of his pra decessors In the sswg teld werc, alter all, fm- rru ble, and tbat hislilimitable division of hie light, however ingenlous, was only s fanci- ful experiment. Every penny subscribed to the compuny referred to was fost, and lody- gulne's great discovery s mow, where it was then,—In his laboratary, 1t has, however, been urged that these early laventors uf the electric light kncw only of the galvanic battery as & generator of & powerful vurrent, and that, hod they known of tho Gramme machine, or other dynsmo-or magento- electrie maching, the results might have been different, The remark, however, only applics to King aud the finprovers who Iminediately sacceeded hlin. The great division of the lignt by Lodyizuiue, to which refercoce has just been made, was in 8 clreult produced b v “Alllancs ' nachines. Even, however, If snch were not thecase, there aro at present before tho world, 1 more or less detall, four recent fuveutions for the production of a divided light g{ {ncandescence, Tlease are the tnyentions of . Reynier. of M. Arnaud, of Mr, Edlson, and, most recent of all, M. Werdermann, From the way in which these discoverles—It they are dis- coverics~have bren ushiered into the world, it 1a found that great claims arc made on their be- balf, and there are, theretors, naturally great expectatfons on the part of the public inregard to them. It connot be urged now {n mitigation of the shoricomings of tha incaudeseent light, 08 it has been urged lo the past, that it has nut had a fair trial, on the ground that the lamps in existence’ were imperfect in conceptlon, aud complex In construction, Tho'lamp of M, Reynler secms adinirable n Its way, and, it light by incandescence wera 1o be the light ol the future, the clalms of this lamp would have to bo very carefully considered, and,inany case, it will certainly hold an important place in all investigations into tue subject. The lamp of M. Werdermann appears to be tdentical in principlo with, and only slightly different in detall from, that of M. Roynier,and we muy Tully expect that these Inventors will have to couie to termns with each other—so much alike are thulr Inventiona. Of the detalis of Mr, Edi- son's f{nvention,—if there mre any,—nothioz is known Loyond tho fact stated in the Scentiflo American, that it {s a light. produced frotn a; spiral of incandescent platinum; whilo the re- porta in the Ancrican dally pross show such sn cffervescentignorance of the fundaomeatal prin- ciples both of clectricity und of dynamics that uo rellanco whatever can bo placed upun them. Experience, then, has shown that a light by incandescenco comes befors us fu a very 1uc-- tionable shape, and ft is cssentially a lizut which discourages the notion of its practical ap- pllcation. "The question tndeed mn{' be very properly asked: How s ft that Hght by incan- descence Lias always proved such sn utter fail- ure! It has hod a period of thirty-threc years in which to develop; it has been dividod futo varfous Iceser llxhu. numbering from two to 200; and {z haa arrested the attention and taxed the skill of tho greatest electriciana {u the world, How 1s it that it is oblized to give way tolight by the voltaic arcl The an- swer {3 at hand, ‘The lizht by fncandescence can only bo obtained snd divided by a great sacrifice of light and power. ‘This 1s imperative from the fundamental principles of eloctrical sclence. The dimloution according to thu % gquare,’ aud not sccording to simple propor- tlun, applies to clectricity just as {t aoplies to lignt, heat, sound, gruvitation, and other pt:fn- leal phenomena. "Tous if & circuit be dividel to two branches whosa resistances aro equal, weurrout of half the strength posscs thi h each branch, producing at the poiut of resist- unce, bot half the lght, but only a quarter, bocuuse the effect follows the sguare of the currentstrenpth, It thecurrent had been divided into three equal branches, In oach branch only ane-niuth part of thio origiusl lghit would be ub- tajued, and so vn; so that {f au electric light of 1,000 cundles were divided into ten equal lNights, the result would be ten lghts of ten caudles cach, instead of ony of 1,000 candles, Wheu this luw 18 borne In mind, and when it 1s also remembered that to produce the electric light by incanduscence at lcust oue-hall of the current is lust, it will casily be imagined whnt & wasteful Jigit it ts. Kecont experiments prove tuld, It was recently stated, fu roferonce to M. Werdermaun's lucandescent llcut, that be pro- duced two lights of 820 candles each (total, 340 candles), with a prime mover of tw poirer; snd this was constdered & grost result, —as indeed it was for an incandescent light. But how this sinks lato jusigmficance whencom- by the voltale sre. A fuw days aggo M. Rapieff, with two of his regulators and 8 small Uramme machine koown as th machine, sud which 0180 s requires only one snd pe-half-lore power, produced two lights, which, when carcfully measured by the photometer, were found to be ' each enual L0 1,150 candles, or a total of 2,800 cai dles, while with one of M.

Thess numbers give the fols lowing ratlo: 1, 8, 8, 2, 218, thus shiowing how rapldly the light diminishes when divided.” With thy voltale .are, howover, sud with the same battery, hie was able, by a Berrin lamp, to obtain a light of 105 burners. 1t will be secu, then, fom what bas been above stated, that the productton aud the divisibility of the light by jocandescence is a yery wastelul process—s0 wasteful, ludeed, us to rouder |Ls vractical spplication 1mpossible for geuoral lighting. 1T, therofore, all Mr, Edison has ta sunounce to the world fs that ho has succeedud in dividing und fucandescont light—aad Lhe au- uouncement that such is so is wade on author- ity—bis discovery smouuts to very Jittle, Both tho light sod its divislbility wero discovered loug ago.

Ciricaco, Dec. 4.~The people of the country are under grest obligations to Tite TRinuNs for the position that it Los taken on tho sllver queation, It has been found true to the best Interests of the zountry, while so many of our Eastern papers, have been ready 10 bow the knee to the Golden Calf which the European tondhotders have erccted for our worship. Rest assured, Mr, Editor, that your labors in favor ot honest moncey will not be In vain, that the heart of the peoplo fa right, and that fc only requires that thoy be informed fo regard to the great fasue. Allow e, through your columns, to point out & few of the causes which hava conapired to cail into existence this gold factlon, which, by demonetizing siver,would enhance the purchas- ing power of gold. In the great effort that has been made hither- 0, and {5 even yet made, to demonctize stlver, wo are warranted fu belleving that there is somo underlytng vause at work which does not appear upon the surface, What we sec {3 but tle ef- feet,—the cause must Mg far back of ft. 15 1t possible that the financial world has just discoversd soma new and hitherto hidden prie- ciple of tinance by which it becomes ¢vident that mauy civilized nations have made the grest mis- take of a Li-metalllc standard, whou mono. metalism would have better mct its wants! Or fs the wisdom of the prescot so profound upon the subject of finance that it can afford to dis- card all of the experienco of the past, when that experience has shown from time immemorial that the world iss found silver the money of the peoplel The experience of the past teaches that an all-wiso Providence has given to mao the two precious metals, gold and” silveg, in about equal sjuantities as to value, and that this metallic oney is sulllcient for the wants of trade; that the supply ol the precious metals Larely ‘cwp- pace With the fncroase of business; that at some time the production of one wietal will cxeeed that of the other, as for vears after the discov- ery of the Ualifornia wotd-flelds the production of gold exceeded that of sllver, but that scon the equilibrium is restored. Experience also teaches that moncy, so-called, Is subjcct to the great fundamenta) law of supply and detnand, oad that tu provortiun as the production of the vreclous metals increases or decreases, will the purchasing power of money increaso or decrease; that the two mwetals will “circulato side b side at the ratio of about 15 of sliver to of gold, and tbat when so clrculating anv advance in voe of the metnls will he check: ed by the other, so that the equilibrium fe inain- talned, for proof of which ses France, where to- dny $600,000,000 of silver circulates side by sido with gold,—and worth threo cents less than our silver dollar. Now, {tIs eyldent to the most casual _observer that within the pass few yeara there haa arisen m party, who, rezccunw all of the experience of the pust, rejecting all of tho rules of oance, refectiti thy great fundamental law that the value of overythinz, wlictber allver or gold, depends upon tho supuly and demand, bave inslsted that silver should ™ be dethroned, and that the business of the world should be conducted ou an exclusively wold basis. That this new theory is not dictated, by finuncial wis- dom—that I, not dictated wjth thejbeat Interests of the people at lieart—{s maplfest from thecon- atant misrepresentations of ite mdvocates. Never yet lLas thero qn one plausible roason -given for mal nr the chooge. Thoat it is dictatod. by the settlslncis of tue bu- man heart {s most apparent. That it 1s begotten by that craving after monoy which secins to take possession of tho heart when great riches are acquired, sud which pow seems to bave taken possession of the great moncy: Europe, who, liks tho man fn tho paradle, are ready to pull down thelr barus and build great- er, atil say **Boul, take thine ease,” for we hold the evideuce of Indettedness of the world, nod we will doublo their value by striking out of uxistenco onu-ball of the monuy of the world. Aud that we may woro clearly sce the causes wlhich have lod to this derire to advance the valie of gold, lot us go back ssy twenty years. Wa will take the condition of sffalrs in our own country before the War. ‘The total ludebt- edness of the United Btates o 1861 emouuted to £09,000,000; the municipal Indebtedness of the clties and towns was small{ thero had been no great expansion of our railroad system st that time, and the railroads wero comparatively out cf debt. At theclose of the War the Unitud Htates had tssued evidences of indettedness to the enormous suwn of $2.300,000,000. In 1875 llniy-lnur citics had lssuod to the amount of $640,000,000; udd to this the vust amount of in- debtedness tssued by ratirosd compaules and by wrivate corporutions, and you have an amount of indcbieduvss in this country alone cxeeeding $0,000,000,000, bunng this period all Earope had heen plung- ing intodebt. Fraoce, (ermany, Russiy, and Austria, with their expensive wars ond large standiog armies, nad greatly swelled the volume of tuelr debts, while Ezypt and Turkey bad been spendiug vast sums fu riotous Hviug, and England bad added largely to her lnunldpni sl corporate debts, vmaking in all & mass of {ndebtodness which the world uever saw belore. It seemed as I the world, like a young spendthrift, had squandered its patri- wmony, und that the limit of debteduess was the limit of the ability to borrow. A large por- tion of thesa lad been bought at ur own dovernmeut brougbt us nut more In gold. Out of this srose 8 uew clement of power that the world had ucver felt befury,—~ a power that should dictate to Quvernmentsy that by holding the pursc-strings should mnke war or make peace. This new power had takeu & mortgage on rvery Government ou the face of thoearth. [t was o power which biad {ts origi out of the mlisfortunes and extravawancics of the nativns; a power that could control every interest, snd by fts intuht could legisiate for the world, Tt was tho great moneyed power of Europe. It had enriched jtself be- oud anvthing that the world had ever seen. It had furnisned money to the world at high rates ol intervat and large discounts ou the paper, and the great question to that power was, how way the value of these securities be fucreascd, and the answer came, * Reduce the world stock of monuy one-hall by aemonetizing ver, aud double the purchasing power of tho single-stanaard gobl, und thereby double every dollar of fudebteduess.” Aud so Euglaud, which was the largest cred- ftor, first adooled & gold basle; tucu Germany, who bad Just received $1,000,000,000 fn eold a4 indemuoity from Fraace, deatoaetized milver and cowwenced throwing ler surplus silver upou thu warkes, thereby depressiog tho price of s ver below the price of gold. And toda many s suffering a terriole comwercial depres- fon for her foolliandy experiment. In England and Gertany [t was & comparatively easy wat- ter to sccomplisl, for fu thoso countries the few the wsuy, und, besldes, nelibher England nor ticrmany produced s dollar of suver. But, in order 1o carry out this scheme, It becomes vecessary that silver sbould be demonetized in the yreateat silver-proaucing country in the world; but to attempt it 1o the United Siates would secin a dangerous task; to usk the peo- plo ot the United Stutes to give up oue of thelr greatest sources of woalth ave little prowise of success. It was the money of the Futuers; the people were bound to it by every tie ol ju- terest and sttachowent. How, then, could de. wmunetization be uceowpllshed witbout bringlug ft 1o the notico of the people of the United Btates! ‘Thero was but oue way: it must by dons secretly; avd so pald acots werg scnt to the United Btates 1o sccowmplish the great robbery.
