MR. SPRAKER BANKS’ REPLY TO “ SAMUEL 3. RUG- @LBS, OF NO. 24 UNION SQUARE.” Cicago, Oct. 14, 1966. Suwcm B. Recoum, Esq. — Sim— Until I reached this city I had not an opportunity to examine your letters of the 30th September and the 24 October, or the speeches of the gentlemen who have given thetr comments to the public upon my sddress in Wali street on the 26tb of last month. Constant engage- nente in different and distant S'ates have compelled my reper otcedeparmenpein Aer: npr po lowing suggestions upon one of the topics of your letters: ‘hey relate to the industrial interests of the countrf, re in 0 reapect of partisan charactor, 4, ‘To Governor Floyd's argument I havenge The only point I notice is one fp which & ‘cates 6 ts one of the positions of my ore” - United States in 1855, the South had ten millions. Gov. Floyd assumes that the South bas but eight millions, and thus, with less than half the population, produces per capita more than ite share of our industrial product. Upon a reference to the financial reports of last year, Gov. Floyd will find that the per cayita product is abow $65 67 for each person in the Southern States to $106 te the North, Goy. Buat Gade great pleasure, it appears, la the fact that the “statistical computation, which presented ra- sulis slmoet fabulous of American industry,” has bees reduced about fourteen or fifteen (hundred) ‘‘ millions of dollars by the clear investigation of one of the ables: statesmen of New York.’’ This reduction, which a forde the Governor so great a pleasure, and which he thinks does New York so much honor, relates exclusively to com- mercial industry, {[t ts not asserted that the agricultarat or manufacturing industry is overestimated. Your effortes reduction reiates onty to the sum, over $8,100,000,000 which constitutes the balance of $1,500,000,000, ststed as the eggregate of American industry and of whicn $1,200,- (40,CO0 was credited to commerce, and the - Governor Hunt is derived trom your asaumed There are people, who, doing nothing themselves, be- ewe that nothing is done—who think the highest homer that can be conferred upon any class is the privilege of doing nothing. Associating with industry only the ideas of p-rapiration aad ‘atigue, they bail with joy any aus- cessful attempt to show that the amount of labor hae been ovesrated. One would have supposed that in New York cemmercial industry would naye made a1 excep- on im this phiiovopby. You, sir, speaking for the mer- chants would have it otherwise; but you are mistaken. I enenther overestimated the detailed nor aggre- ented industry of our people. On the contrary, f have greatly underestimatec each and a'l, aod especially, I tear, tbat which relates to commerce. Nor did | aa- uucipate that my desire to properly preseat our commerciai movements would be assailed ia New York ef error, by one especially claiming to repre- ercentile totereste. Before I restate the inaue- trai txous, and the autoorisy upon which they Zia beyond all qzention’® whien J repeal as to their truth, I beg your permission to say, that at the ovtset ys mistake an illustration for a eition. You ‘the fuadamental and cardinal « the addrese is, that eixteen non-slavebolding States > ly exceed and exeei the remaining fifteen slave!

We asked for peace sud a wider field of industry. The t- Custrial facta to which yoa refer, and the bistory of Kenaas, to which you make no all were Cited as Blue ous of the proposition. Nor did claim, as you say, “that the Northern States are new «poled to direct the government.” My assertion was ‘het those who bad 8» great « share in he labor of devel- oping the material wealth of tue contineat, should ase bave a part in shaping its political policy. We invited at 10 joia vs who would eubstitute inaustrial and commer- cial Gevelopement for sectioga! agitation and pro stavery propegardism, Those only denoance it as sectional whe woke it so.
