POLITICAL.
Senator Trumbull's Speech at Spriugiiehl on Wednesday.
gvnrcbius Review of the Present Usurping' Administration.
On Wedupstkiy evening Hon. Lyman Trumbull addressed a large meeting of delegates and citizens ol' Springfield, in the State House Square. After he bad been introduced by Mr. Kejes, the Senator Spoke as follows
FELLOW-CITIZENS: I rejoice to have an opportunity to address so many of my fellow-citizens, and from diflerent portions of the State, in regard to the present condition of public affairs and the position which I have deemed it my duty to take in regard to them. It is now just about eighteen years since 1 addressed a meeting ia the hall of the House of Representatives on the political questions which were then agitating the country, and which led to the formation of new parties, of that party with which I have been attached, and with which I have acted as your Representative in the councils of the nation for now more than seventeen years. During that long period events of the most mothentouscharacter have occurred—the most remarkable that have ever happened in our history and the questions upon which the Republican party was formed have been! settled, and settled I trust forever. Nothing |is now left but the organization, and that organization lias fallen Into the hands of m'en who seek to prostitute the name of the pairty to their own selfish purposes, and to make it a mere party of partizans. During this long public service it was not to be expected that in my public action I should always have acted in accordance with the vie\tfs of all my constituents, and I can only claim that! have brought to the discharge of public duties the best abilities I had, and I have endeavored-to discharge my duties honestly and faithfully to the people who have so frequently honored me by re-elections to the positions I have held. [Threecheers for Mr. Trumbull were here called for, and were heartily given.] Within the last few years, many abuses had crept into the administration of the Government, numerous defalcations had occurred, among the most noted of winch was, perhaps, that of Mr. Hodges, a Paymaster in the office of the Paymaster General in the City of Washington, whose defalcations, occurring there right under the eye of the Government, amounted to more that* $400,,000'. Other defalcations had occurred in other parts pf the country. A committee of investigation of a previous Congress had renorted that great abuses existed in the
Custom House in the City of New York. They reported that officials in that Custom House were in the habit of receiving bribes, and that the public service wss very greatly demoralized.
At the commencement of the recent session of Congress, with a desire to inquire into the causes of these defalcations and the abuses that existed in the Customs Department in New York, and in other cities, and in all the departments of the Government, to ascertain whether supernumerary omen. were employed, whether money had ia any instance been paid out of the Treasury without authority of law, I introduced into the Senate a resolution for the purpose of raising a joint Committee of Investigation and Retrenchment, to be composed of members of the two Houses of Congress, with power to send for persons and papers. When I offered that resolution, I did it in good faith, for the purpose of discovering and exposing frauds and, if they existed, of applying the proper corrective, and without any design of injuriug the Republican party. I was simple-minded enough to believe that the Republican party, to which I had been attached, and with which I had been identified for so many years, would be lifted in public estimation, would be strengthened before the people, if it had the virtue and the honesty to expose, even among its own members, wrong, corruption and fraud, if it existed, and to apply the
proper
corrective.
And I admit that I was very much astonished when that proposition was met by geu\lemeu in the Senate who constitute what for brevity's sake, I may this evening denominate as a Senatorial Ring, denouncing me as unfaithful to the Republican p'U-ty, and as throwing dirt upon it by ofteriug a resolution to inquire into the conduct of public officers. [Cheers.] I was denounced as unfaithful because I had offered a resolution of this character. Fellow-citzens, of Illinois, I ask you if that was a breach of trust to you No, no."*} A public sentiment was aroused ttucptighout the country by the opp sition to this investigation, an investigation not of a novel character, for similar cases had been had in previous Congresses, The. people throughout the land, through the public press and otherwise, expressed their condemnation of this attempt to prevent investigotion, and to cover up abuses if they existed. The voice of the people was heard by this Senatorial Ring, and they made haste to devise some scheme by which the investigation could be rear dered ineffectual. A party caucus of Republicftfi Senatorswas called, and a scheme to change
the character of the resolution, and to organize and pack the Committee, which, instead of going forth to uncover and expose corruption, should go forth to conceal and cover it up. The proposition for the Joint Committee of the two Houses, with power to send for persons and papers, was voted down, and in its place a resolution was passed creating a Committee of the Senate alone. The members of that Committee were selected in a party caucus, and not a single Republican Senator who had originally favored the investigation was placed upon the Committee. This was contrary to all parliamentary law, and contrary to the plainest principles of common sense, if the object was to discover abuses, and contrary to that rule of parliamentary law which says that a cnna must not be put to a nurse who cares not for it. This investigation was placed in the hands of the friends of the parties to be investigated. The frauds ot Thoma
Murphy and others, if any had been committed, were to be inquired
the friends of
into
others. I ask you to-night, as
Q^
Thomas
Murphy and
intejJ1_
gent citizens, knowing the secrecy wit which fraud is committed, and who are aware of the cunning devices resorted to to cover it up, if you would expect to uncover and detect it, if none but friends of those accused were appoiuted to make investigations
But, notwithstanding this was the character of the Committee, it went to the city of New York, and so gross and open were many of the abuses that existed in the public offices there, that even they could not shut their eyes to the fact. Merchants came forward and testified, under oath, that they had been oftentimes compelled to pay money to get their goods delivered from the Custom House. They proved, by indubitable testimony, that the carting of goods from vessels to Government warehouses was given to favorites, and that they were required to pay double, and triple prices even, for the services performed. They were plundered by this system in various ways. I cannot stop to-night to point out all the iniquities that came to light even when the investigation was conducted by the friends of those to be investigated, and when public notice was given—official notice—that if it appeared that merchants had paid bribe money to officials to get their goods passed, the merchants would be prosecuted to the extent of the law. Was that fair Would you expect to obtain testimony to a fraudulent transaction, if you published in advance that the witnesses who gave you information would be prosecuted criminally? Instead of confining the investigation to the official conduct of officers, the duty which was imposed on this committee, it undertook to investigate merchants, and when it was proven that officers from the Custom House were sent on political expeditious to State Conventions and to the Legislature to control its organizations, would you believe it, the gentlemen who testified to these facts were inquired of how tbey knew it, and if they were not present at political conventions? As if the people had not the right to assemble as if one of you here to day, were to be called as a witness before an investigating committee to testify to some fraudulent transaction here in the city of Springfield by using a public office for the purpose of controlling these conventions, and when you were giving in your testimony, you were to be turned upon and inquired of, what business you had here, and be reproved for being here yourselves, as if the people had not the right to assemble together and form conventions and govern thecouutry without being dictated to or controlled by officials through official influence. [Cheers.]
The testimony disclosed before the committee shows that numerous officers and employes in the Custom House in the city of New York, numbering thousands, for at that point duties are collected annually of about §140,000,000 in gold, were assessed certain portions of their salaries and of their pay, for party purposes, to control conventions, primary meetings, and elections. Has this been corrected No. Leet & Stocking, who had the exclusive General Order or cartage business, from which they received more than $100,000 profits annually, of which merchants were plundered, and which you pay when you buy these foreign goods, for this expense is added to the price of the article you purchase, are still enjoying the monopoly of that eartage business. Although bills passed the House of Representatives at its recent session, designed
to
correct abuses in the Custom Houses of the country, they received no consideration in the Senate o# the United States. This Senatorial Ring would not allow these bills to be considered. They wantfeet the system continued, that they might ttave the spoils of it to carry elections next fall. A bill containing provisions which Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, Chairman of the Committe on Finance, in the Senate, admitted, if enacted in a law, would correct those abuses, received no attention in the Senate. A bill from the house was referred to a committee, over which I have the honor to be Chairman, (Judiciary Committee) which has upon it members of the Senatorial Ring. The bill was designed to correct many of the aDuses practiced by informers and others, in seizure of goods, and to prevent oppression and plunder of merchants. That bill, although it was before that Committee for two months, was never reported to the Senate. I made two motions in the Senate to have
bill before the Senate, that it might receive its action but they were voted down under party drill. Let me tell you of another committee of investigation raised in the House of Representatives, and packed also by an obsequious and partisan speaker—I speak of facts of which I have knowledge—a committee, a majority of which consisted of the friends of the Secretary of the Navy, whose conduct was about to be investigated. I want to tell you what that committee did, and I think you will be astonished when I state the fact that a committee of members of the House of Representatives could have been found, who were so blinded by party zeal, so full of bigotry or cowardice that they could not see, or were afraid to expose violations of law on the part of political associates. This committee was raised at the instance of Governor Blair, of Michigau, a noble, independent, and able Republican—the Governor of Michigan during the war, and as ardent aud true a friend to the great principles on which the Republican party was organized as this Union affords. At his instance, a committee was raised to inquire intocer tain transactions in the Navy Department, presided over by Mr. Robeson, of whom you never heard, I will venture to say, till his name was sent to the Sen ate for Secretary of the Navy. [That's so.] Among many of the things that this committee was instructed to inquire into —for I can mention- but few here tonight—was a claim for buildiug certain vessels for the Government of the United States during the war. I have the precise figures here giving the exact amounts which the Government contracted to pay for the construction of the three vessels, Tecumseh, Mahopac, and Manhattan. The contract was made in 1862, aud the Government agreed to pay to some contractor by the name of Seeor $1,380,000 for the construction of these three vessels. After the contract was made, the Government required some changes in the plans of the vessels, aud a Board of Naval officers was appointed to superintend them and to certify bills for extra work, which they did to the amount of more than $500,000. The vessels were all furnished, the contract price paid—the sum due for the extra work was paid, and it was all settled and closed in the Navy Department in 1865. But these contractors, who had received tnofe than $1,900,000 for buying the ,! '*!l$ .-ia-
the Committee discharged and bring the weak nerves with habitual constipation. There are very few who have not employed physi Claris for years to remedy what, this preparation will do in a few weeks, by strengthening the nerves, enriching the circulation, restoring di
vessels and the extra work, came to Congress by petition, and complained that they still had not received as much as* they ought, because they said that they were delayed iu their contracts by the action of the Government, that while thus delayed the price of labor and of materials had advanced, and they had met with great loss, and they, thenf re, asked Congress to allow them something more. Congress, in 1867, passed a law directing the Secretary of the Navy to look into this matter, and report to the next session. The Secretary appointed a Board of naval officers, who made the investigation, and reported to Congress that these secors ought to be allowed $115,000 more. I use round numbers— $115,000 in addition to what they had already received, and put into the law these words, "which shall be." 'Now notice the.words, "which shall be in full discharge ot all claims against the United States on account of the vessels upon which the Board made the allow ance as per their report." Now, do any of you,»does any lawyer, if there are any lawyers here, know how to write a stronger clause than that to end this claim? "Which $ll5,000shall be in full discharge of all claims against the United States on account of the vessels on which the Board made their report." The Secors, in 1868, received these $115,000 and gave their receipt. Do you not think that ought to have ended it [A voice— "I should think so."] Would you believe it possible that the Secretary of the Navy would, after that, pay anything more? [Voices—"No!"] They had been paid the original contract price and the extra work by the former Secretary of the Navy in 1864 and 1865 they had au allowance of $115,000 from Congress, which, by law, it was declared should be in full discharge of all claims on account of these vessels, and should yon not have supposed that that was the end of that [Continued on third page.]
Oil, That I Were Beautiful! is the unspoken wish of thousands of women to whom nature has denied the charms of a pure, fresh transparent complexion. To gratify this wish HAGAN'S MAGNOLIA BALM was introduced. The cosmetics of the day had been pronounced poisonous by the most distinguished chemists, and it was also found that their ultimate effect was to wither the skin as well as to paralize the exterual nerves. The ladies hailed with delight the advent of a healthful, herbal and floral preparation capable of imparting to their faces, necks aud arms a porcelain smoothness and a tinge like that of the finest oriental pearl. They soon discovered that it was a "new thing under the sun," incomparable aud unapproachable. Unquestionably the MAGNOLIA BALM has been the great toilet success of the preseut century.

CARPETS.
^LO-^iLirV VICTORIOUS!
Our recent onslaught upou the Carpet) trade caused a decided sensation. We have never seen a more complete success. Within 24 hours after we had announced our prices to the public, our Carpet room was crowded with customers, and each week our sales of these goods have continued to increase.
It is the Hit Bird that Flutters!
This accounts for the fluttering among our competitors. They got thefr backs up at once aud rushed into print to tell the people that they had reduced their Carpets to the price of ours. The people answered, "We don't believe you, and even if you have, Foster Brothers compelled you to lower your prices,-or you would never have done it. We propose to give our patronage to the merchants whose prices are so low that they have never had to reduce them to meet the prices of other stores."

Now that prices have tumbled our large lots, in many instances
INGLORIOUS FIZZLE!
His "Hand Loom" ami "Family" Carpets Proye to be a Humbug!
Knowing, as we did, that his "Hand Loom" Carpets, for which he was charging $1.49 and $1.50, were exactly the goods that were selling at $1.20 and $1.25, and that his so-called "Family" Carpets at $1.00 were the same as our 85e goods, we submitted to him four distinct challenges on the subject, which he has not dared to accept.
The brief campaign of the past few weeks has placed us
AT THE HEAD OF THE CARPET TRADE!
WE PROFOSE TO KEEP THE LEAD!
We shall do it by offering to the public only well known brands of Carpets, and by always representing our goods to be just what they sire. As we shall keep no makes of Carpets to which the manufacturers are ashamed to put their names, .•i. _.:n necessary for us to dub any of them "Finger Looms" or it will never become "Family Frauds."
