.QoLUKBUty Octobar Governor Seymour arrivod at p. m. to-day, and was received, ft}. |he deppt hy an immense crowd.

Speech of Hon- O. P. Morto I^AKAr^'O^bee ^i^GlverPor Morton delivered the following speech at» the Rink to-night, in reply to speeci»»* made by Gov. Seymour:

Pkllow.CITIZENS:—Mr. Seymourjii sents the novel and painful spectacle ^f a candidate for the PresidencgJ-M office in the gift of« Jftee R»opi8i '#5°j about like a common stump orator tioneering for himself and assailing I tie character and positions of his opponents.

Two years ago Mr. Johnson swung around the circle for the ostensible purpose of laying the corner stono of a monument to tho lamented Douglas, in Chipftr go Mr. Seymour Smaking his swing not for any such professed purposes, hut as we believe, is really engaged in lay pig the corner stone of the tomb of the Democratic party. The result of the late elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, has called him forth from his rural retreat in Yorkyang he is paaking a laBt and desperate effort to retrieve the fallen fortunes of a decayed, disloyal and dishonorod party.

Tho great object which he seems t&' have in view in all the speeches he has made since he started on his tour is, to array the Western against the Eastern States, to excite the people of the Northwest to hostility towards the people ,of what he calls the northern Atlantic States. New Yorker as he is, eastin man as he is, he does not hesitate to slander his section and the people of his o#n State, to tepr«8$nt thJbauaBl&l iBnemjes commercially, financially arrti soeiallyjof the people of the North-western States^-* The people of New York, to whom he owes his efficial dignity and all that po Is, are represented by him as oppressing the people of the Nqrth-westarn St&tfea, extorting from them, robbing and pluhfjl dering them at every point. 1

For many years the politicians of tpefi South labored, ,tp t^cita their people against the Ndrtfi, tnfeiMftbbrfl Bh^lly resulted in rebellion. For many yetCTs it has been the policy of the Demoera^ic politicians of Indiana and other Northwestern States to deflotmoeNew England and arouse tho prejudices and feelings ©f our people against the people of that section of our country.

This was the staple of Democratic. »•=. gutoent throughout the'w&r, anfi 1cadi|g men of that party in Indiana hinted broadly at a Northwestern Confederacy, and that New England should be left opt in the cold and now w®»haye"a,n iasj ern politician, a candidate for office, e|deavoring by every means in his power to excite the people of the Northwest against the peoplq even of his own EJtafe.

Among the charges which he bfinfcs against the Government is, that the National debt is sectional in its character, that it was not contracted in the several States according to their population, hut that most of the money was borrowed from the Eastern States. It is hard |o refrain frem calling this complatot absurd, just as if Congress could borrow money where the people h^d little |r none to lend, and refuse to borrow monkey in other States where they had plenty of it to lend.

He says that by this imp^^dr'SotiQic^ of borrowing mohey, Chiefly the Eastern States, the States have been dividejd into creditor and debtor States, the Eastern being oreditors .and istfae Westerjn States the debtors. ThiB phrase he fi employed in his Cooper Institute spee of the 29th day of June JftSt, andjt now past into quotation, although there absolutely no meaning in it.

The Eastern States did not lend theEr money to the Western States, but to th$ Government. It. is t^ue that the Western States aire liable to pay Ibe debt/ but so are the Eastern States, and they will help to pay the debt in very much tl^B proportion in which they lent the monejf.

In his speeches at Buffalo aad Chicago, the first grievanco he complained of was, that Congress had levied an export tax of six cents per pound upon raw cotton. He said this not only oppressed the planter, butchiefly the negto laborer, with whom he seems to have fallen in lov£t»cently.4 -He describe this tai 'aSTJeiin^ enormous in its character, levied for vii^ dictive purposes, and as being the chief reason why reconstruction has not taken place in the South.- -Upon this subject

MLr. Seymour is not well informed.— The tax levied upon cotton was not sit cents per pound, but three .gents per pound. ,The tax- ww hctt^l^lioritl he states. Congress is expressly prohibited by the Constitution from leveying an export tax, which Mr. Seymour seems to lave forgotten. On the contrary, the tax was levied upon all the cotton produced in the country, without regard to wheth* er it was exported to fcireign cohh'tries for manufacture, or kept in this country, it was levied at a time when the Govern^ ment was compelled to tax every thing, and to draw revenue from every possible source, and it was repealed nearly a yea| ago, when taxation could -ha rfidu^ad.— But the mo# Jt^telMii which hd makes ni conn'ectiin :witli this tax is, that it was instigated by Eastern manufacturers, and I quote his language: "I say it was a selfish act, becauso it was done in the interest of the Eastern man-, ufacturer, already, wealthy fjromths fruits of tho war, protected fiy efidrhaoua tariffs. Thi3 tax of six pents a pound upon all cotton exported wa& simply im^ posed so that he might buy it for a price six cents.less than itr wafe&erth in

*. ,rrsaaiga€rr.Mf

Vi •i-iv.'fif f)y»f?

the|

markets of the world." The manufacture^ were of all others' the class of men in tho North who were especially interested againgt ul __ is not to be supposed that 'thoy desired to add 6 cents per pound iheiwst of the raw material which ^i^ m&mifactured into goods. On the coixtcary, the people of the manulfccturm^ mates were anxious to have the lax repealed, and overy Senator and Representative from New England voted for its repeal.

His complaint against Eastern manu* facturers that they instigated this tax on cotton, is .quite as logical as that of the wolf who quarreled with the lamb whieh was drinking in tho stream below, because hfl4 muddied |het*v«ter||o ha"|he could ndt'ute it. Iliitf Mr$%ymo& is determined to prove that thVpeopie of the eastern State3 are ths oppressors of the Western and Southern States, and hence hiS|T«n«rkable statamenf. |_

Another^reat financial outrage which has been perpetrated by the JRenublica party as he alleges was, dnvfcg|«#it?th circulation of State and lbwl Balks by heavy taxation during tho war, to make room for the circulation of national banks an} legfrl jmdfWsjutaB. This s^ras fpir measure "&p6n the part of the government, and "one of necessity. The government had to havje money to, fca#y,on_th|i war, ptflis #my chase supplies for them, and to meet the vast expenditures which were necessary to be incurred. The notes jf. the local banks could not be used by the government for that purpose, they were at par only In their immediate.- legacies o^en in time of peace.

In 1860, tho notes of the Bank of the State of Indiana, asgcteda bank a| tfeere was iu|he ctu&ry, wotod fyt pa^ hotai bills or b^y goods in 'the city or New York. They were at a discount in all the Eastern cities, and what was true of the banks Of Indiana' %as tnie'\f' the banks of Ohio, and of all the other Wests ern States. The issues of these local banks could not be used in paying the

It WM so aoiMly pcopw «t the Mme that it received but little oppe«ition, exoept from those who desired the success of the rebellion. But the principal burden of his speeches at Buffalo, Chicago and here wa that when the National Banks were located, and the National currency dia-. tributed, it was left open to be grabbed up by those who first applipd for it, whereby the Eastern States get-the moat of it, and that was a great blunder upon the j^irt of Congress.

Again I must say that Mir, Seymour is

not well informed, as Confess did everything in its power to equflize the distribution of that currency. If the Governor had read the National Banking Act he could not have made that statemeht.

The 17th section of the act provides' as follows: "Sec. 17. And be it further enacted, that the entire amount of circulating notes io be issued under this act shall dot exceed three hundred millions of dollaw, one hundred and fifty millions of which sum shaU be.appwtioned to associations ip the State?, in the Distriat of Columbia, aud ia the Territories according to representation of population,,and the remainder shall be apportioned by the

Secretary

ol the Treasury among associations form^d in the several States, in the District, of Columbia and the Territories having due regard to the existiQg banking capital, revenues and business of such States, Districted Territories." I

The State of Indiana got just as nfiuch of that currency as she was able to-take, and her people were nrged by the Comptroller of the currency, Judge McCullooh, to take more than they did. But Mr. Seymour says that the matter should have been kept open until the Western States were able to take their full share. Tiie Government bad to havie mon^yi and hid to rim lief Donas. We were in the miifct of a'terrible war, qoold n^| waitfbr cafiney unlal the States were ail *prejared to take equal portions of the banking a pi a it

The people in the Eastern States had more capital and more money to purchase bonds with, than the people of the West-, ern, and it was so before the war.

The Western States have a larger proportion of National Banking currency than they had of State or local banks before the war.

I have a statement made up from the books 9f the Bank of the State of Indiana, and from thie books of tbe Auditor of State, which shtfws the following facts:

In October, 1867, the capital of the National Banks in. Indiana amounted to $12,767,000.. Their circulation was $11,042,000. Their loans were $13,210,258.

In March 1861, the. entire bank capital in Indiana %as $4,453,425. '^The entire bank circulalation was $5,368,297. Their loans $64,447,550. So that under the national backing system Iridiana has ,413,575 of an increaped banking capital, $5,673,703 of increased circulation, and $6,444,753 of increaaed.banking loans, that under the present system our banking capital has been trebled, and our bank circulation more than doubled.

Mr. Seymour goes on to say that while Indiana has $12,000,000 of National banking currency, Massachusetts has $57,000,000,, but he fails to notice that in 1862 MawaohUfeetts hai $67,000,000 of banking capital, while Indiana had but $4,353 000, and this when Indiana and the National Government were just passing from Democratic to Republican bands.— But on examination, we shall flud that the taxes are distributed among'the Eastern and Westerp States ija about the samja proportion. j'

Rhode Island has two Representative in Congress^ and paid last year two millions, eight hundred and fifty-three thousand five hundred and seventy«foar dollars of internal -revenue tax/ Massachusetts has ten representatives in Congress, and last year paid nearly eighteen millions or dollars of internal revenue tax.Indiana htffl eleven reprwentatives i^ Congress, and last year she paid but two milliou4, three hundred, and forty4wo thousand dollars of internal revenue tax. But Mr. Seymour does not complain that there is any hardship jp this, for his misi sion is to array the West against the East.

Oil last Seithrday Evening he explained to the people of Chicago how terribly they were wonged by his own and other East* ern States in the distribution of the Na^ tional Bank currency, that While'Massa chusetts had fifty-seven millions of this currency,'lllin'Ss-had bat ten millions.

Now, to stE^lio^'terribly Illinois hai been outraged in this matter, I will read from the official report, from whioh it appears that in 1861 and 1862, all the banks Of Illinois together had but six hundred and nineteen thousand, two hundred and eightyraix dollars in currency, which, ac cording to Mr. Seymour's statement, wai driven out to give place to ten millions' of national banting currency. And to further prctve hoiw1 terribly North-, west has bean wronged ln this whole business, 1 read from the.same report that all the North-weatern States, including Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Arkan-: sae, Iowa ''Minnesota, ^ansas and Ne brnBka,' had in 1861, nineteen millions, dus iyiadred and oighty«four thousand, five hundred and sixty-four dollars of cuiyency, all told, anid that the- Bame States have now^f national banking currency fifty millions, six hundred and thirty-nine thousand, six hundred and ten dollars, being an addition of thirty uiilliono to their currency growing out of the. change from the local to the national l&Kthg%siUii.'

In January 1862, befbre the national banks were Established, the total amount of bank circulation, including all the rebel States, was tWb. hundted attd thirty eight millions, six hundred and seventeen thousand, two hundred and eighteen dollars, of which tbe nine North-western States had,as Wore ftateA niaetefen millions, Six hnn'OTed Snd eighty-four thou sand, five hundred and sixty-four dollars, which was about one-thirteenth of the whole amount of )ifcaifttog-. N«w the nationA £inks have -la cm ulation of three hundred millions, of which the Northwestern States hate one-sixth, or fifty millions.

Mr. Seymour makes much ado heefctae the rates of interest are higher the West than in the East, but he greatly exaggerates the difference. It is not more than one-third what he represents, still the rates of interest are higher in the Eastern than in the Western Statee, aiid have always been sa Mo&ey is cheaper in old and wealthy States than in new are bill partially "Bevel oped and are rapidly improving. Mo&ejr is cheaper in New York than it is :ih Chicago, and it is much chflj^par in IiOn dori than it is in New York.

Mr. Seymour presents the difference in the rates of interest between New York and ©htetfg0*s something ne# and won. /gpresaioh brought on

smaller from year to year as-the West in creases in wealth and capital. And now I come to Mr. Seymour's po sition as to th^ five-twenty bonds, wheth er they shall be paid in gold or green' backs. On the 29th of June he made a teech at Cooper Institute, in New Jprk, in which he assumed without condescending to argue the question, that all the'bonds were to be paid in gold, and went on to show what injustice and hardship Wpold result' t6 the holders of the btmds if they were paid in papv-' The position he took at that time was positive and emphatic, and to show the views of the North-western Democracy upon his Bpeech, I will read a brief editorial from the Cincinnati Enqujrer of J|ine 30th, 1868, the most influential Demos cratic paper in the North-west, 'f

GOVXBNOB SBTUOTTB'S SPEECH, "The Radical paps*) seem to be well pleased in the main with the late spacch of Gov. Horatio Seymour, in New York. They report it ie a plea for the bonds holder, that his bonds shall be paid in old. Th# Governor is usually sound, jut his views upon this question run Counter to those of ninety-nine Democrats out of a hundred. They can never be( sanctioned either by the party or the country. The bonds will not be paid in gold unless the holders will take the sums they were worth in that commodity when I,hey bdught them in 18,62, '63, and

'64k

lov. Seymour's financial views are not calculated to strengthen the Democracy, but will give aid ancLcomfort to the opposition." 5J4-1-

Five days after this speech was made the New York CogMttSriieh adopted the following resolution: "Thirds And. wi}en the obligations of the "Government do not expressly state upon their facp, or the law under which they were issued, does not provide that they shall be paid in coin, tqey.ought,in right and justice to be paid in the lawful money of the United States."

Mr. Seymourln his letter accepting the nomination, endorses this resolution in the following words: "I have carefully read the resolutions adopted by the Convention, and most cordially concur in every principle, and sentiment they advance."

Inhis speech at Buffalo the other night he disposed of*this question in the following ambiguous sentence, which was intended to mean anything, or nothing, as the reader desired: "We have said that when the agreement was that hjb should have been paid old, he shouM have it. and when,„the t^ict Sid not'define in'whai h«i' s|#ild have baen paid^he should" have been given money as good as that which we use for the social purposes of paying oar tensions and rewarding..the toil of the a borer," but as the pensioner and labor, er are both paid in greenbacks, the sentence means, if it means anything, th^t the bondholders shall be paid in the sanie way.

But Mr. Seymour has pledged himself to both sides of the question, and these pledges have been given so near together, that in fact he has no position on the subjeot, and his two

ccbhtradiotory

opin

ions taken together make both worthless. In his speech at Cooper Institute he said that the first' thing to be done to restore the credit of the country was, to return to specie payment by baking the greenbacks as good as gold, and that until this was done the credit of our bonds could not be brought up in the market, and that instead of increasing the amount of cur-, rency we should make that good which we now have.

In that position I think he was entirely right, but in his speech at Chicago he reversea'his' position.

He declared that the currency could not be made good and brought up to par until the loans had first been brought up to par in" gold.

In his Cooper Institute speech he wae very earnest and eloquent in favor of reiturning to specie payments as the onje thing to be done whioh would equalize the interests of all classes, restore the credit of the nation at home and abroad, and place our bonds upon a level with those issued by other Governments.

But in his speech at Chicago he not only abandoned thiB position, but took ground in favor of a further inflation of the currency, whioh would defer specie payments beyond your lifetime or mind.

In his speech in this hall, last night, he again demoted much time to the question of the distribution of the national current cy, and in this matter seemB to think that like another distinguished Democrat, he has discovered the North-west passage. The great importance that he attaches to it did not occur to Mr. Hendricks, or apy other of the ten thousand Democratic speakers who have been instructing the people during this canvass, and will not occur to the great mass of the people

0VeD

mour. ao-isst,*..-.. #,«- It is a weak complaint against the action of the Republican partj, which will not bear examination, of Whioh I now take my leav.e.

In. his speech lier^, last nighty #h| sought to make an a|^a) to .the soldier and farmer by the following statements "When I go over this country, I find the advantages of government unequally distributed. Its financial policy bears heavily upon the people, and 1 find class of men complaining of it. I think jbstly too, this is not a government that deals with all alike. Sew happens ft un der this poMey that the value of these curity of the bondholder goes up, and the pension of the soldier goes down Howhappens it at this day that the great ag« ricnltdrat interest of tbe States, flourishing as it is, droops, while other interests have -Bo^juperel forgotten or are not disposed to divide the advantages they enjoy iii this Gov ernment with other parties of our land?''

If Mr. Seymour really desires to foster the interests of tbe pensioner and of tho farmer, he will endeavor to make tbe currency in which tbe pensioner is paid and which the farmer receives for his products, as good as gold, instead of depreciating its value by flooding tbe country with a new issue of ^irredeemable

paper money. .:• But, as 1 said before, upon financial questions, Mr. Seymour now has no position or standing before the county, and I will turn aside from him for a time to consider the financial theories of Mr. Pendleton.
