Speech Of Secretary McCulIorI,.

We publish this morning a report of the
speech of the Secretary of the Treasury, at
Fort Wayne, Indiana This being the first
public exposition Of Mr.. MCCUILooHs
views of national politics and the financial
future of the Government, it will be read
with much interest. Mr. MoCULLocH sus.
tains the Presidents reconstruction policy,
and believes that the person into whose
hands the task has been committed in the
South are all right In reference to fnan-
cial matters he holds that there must be
an early contraction of the currency, and
as speedy return as possible to specie
payments. He says: IF Congress shall,
early in the approaching session. authorize
the funding oflegal tenders, and the work
of reduction is commenced and carried on
resolutely but carefully and prudently, we
win reach it (the specie Standard probably
without serious embarrassment to legiti-
mate business. If not, we shall have a
brief period of hollow and seductive pros
perity, resulting in widespread bankruptcy
and disaster"

Where Beef IL Cheap.

A Texas letter writer says: "Any man in
this State who does not own four hundred
head OF cattle and seventy or hundred horses
and mules, Is worse than worthless. Beef sells
here at five cents per pound, horses and mules
for fifteen to thirty dollars for round lots, and
are within two hundred and fifty miles of a
good market. As far as the eye can reach in
every direction, and as far as yeu may go, the
country is alive with stock. The whole mar
ket of the United States might be supplied
here, and there would not be any apparent de.
crease" Would it not pay handsomely to
bring some of these Texan herds north
Would passage by steamer from the Texas
coast be too costly. at the present price of

Democratic Gains.

In Iowa, L1NooLN's majority last year
was 39,479. STONES election is now
claimed by less than $4,000, leaving a
conservative gain of $4,000. In Ohio the
gain will be from $4,000 to 10000 over
last year, and nearly $4,000 since 1868.
In Connecticut the majority of 2.4O6 for
LINCOLN has been wiped out, and the Chi
cago Tribune acknowledges democratic
triumph by 5000 majority. In Pennsyl-
vanilla the gains have not been so large, on
account of the immense power of shoddy-
ism over the electors. On the whole the
results of the election are most cheering.

ranged many little surprise parties " for
the people, in the rare harmonious, and
wonderful combination of distinguished

might readily be found in tie extraordi-

carry this State in the coming election.
Their death struggle is to be hard one.
But its knell has been sounded; they feel
it; it is as resistless as fate. They affect
to treat lightly the nomination of Mr.. RloE,
but the most casual observer could not
fail to have noticed, that it was of all

thereto, no man has wrought more I'M

What the Presidents Expects.

Judge BIRD, of Alabama, has lately Wis
tied Washington, and he writes letter to
the Mobile News, telling the people what
the President expects of the reconstruct
ing States, which is a. follows:
LIST. Declare the African race free by the or.
ganic law of each State
3D. THAT each State will secure end guaranty
by her constitution civil rights to the freedmen
political rights, such as suffrage, sitting on
juries, &C.. are not expected to be conferred
on them at this time these are matters to be
left to the discretion of the several States. But
the freedom of the African race and the quar-
anty of their civil rights are requisite to the
reconstruction of State governments and their
readmission to the Union.

A Call for Economy.

The New York Journal Of Commerce.,
in view of the fact that no signs ot re.
trenchment are visible, save perhaps, the
mastering out of troops, while the national
expenses still exceed two million dollars
per day, thinks it high time that ali who
have the best interests of the country at
heart should cease their wrangling about
matters of little moment and pay more
attention to the drain upon the life-blood
of the nation. The Journal adds:
wholesome severity in examining the daily
accounts Of these most extravagant expendi-
lures can do no possible harm. A few years
ago, the whole country was stirred up by.a
fierce debate about q few dollars extra
mileage paid to members of Congress.
But here are hundreds of millions running
out of the public treasury In the most waste.
fui profasion, and we hardly hear warning
voice. Somebody has yet to toll for these un-
counted millions. Some ones back must bear
a grievous load for every petty thousand In
these enormous aggregates. There Is yet to be
not only toll, but suffering and want In many
home before the final settlement for all this
waste. There is long, gaunt procession Of
real people, our own flesh and blood, who
must yet mourn over this uncalled-for extrava-
gance. We wish that the ghostly presence Of
every poor toiler, whose burden b thus wick
edly increased, could hover about these harpies
who have fastened on the public crib, and give
them foretaste of that fearful retribution
which must await them If even-handed justice
be not evaded.

Will the Press oblige us by quoting
that portion of Mr.. JoHNsoN's speech
which commits him in favor of negro suf-

that directly or indirectly favors negro
suffrage, north or south, and it was this
omission that created dissatisfaction among
the negroes to whom it was addressed.

Tho Political ASPECT.

. AA4O = V1AsAO0x ASR00ts
Under this heading the Independent be-
means the fact that the sympathies and
proclivities of President JOHNSON are to-
wards the Democratic party, its principles
and it's policy. It says:
We have no fears for the stability of Repub.
Gcan principles-for these make Presidents. and
are not made By them. But we cannot help
noticing the present unsatisfactory attitude Of
aloof from the hearty appreciation of its best
friends, and, at the same time stands garland
ed with the bad praise of it's worst foes. We
are not OF those critics who delight In finding
occasions for thorning the government. We
are not of those despairers who think the
cause OF negro suffrage makes disheartening
progress. Nevertheless, we ask seriously and
ISnsese"
The loss, to the government, of the
radicals could be cheerfally endured.
To suppose that the government could
suffer any disaster by the withdrawal of
the support of the radicals, is an assump-
ton which naturally provokes as much
mirth as ridicule. The Independent dread
fully fears that the Union may be restored
as it was, and that good feeling will exist
between the North and the South. But
it has its remedy for such a condition of
things. It knows how it can be prevented,
and therefore says:
What is the remedy for this calamitous state
of things? The remedy is In q more radical.
not less radical, policy by the government!
We little heed the stories in the newspapers
that the administration is going over to the
Democracy. But half blind man can see that
the Democratic party is now busy honeying its
lips to kiss Andrew johnson on both cheeks.
to betray him. Moreover, certain gentlemen
in the state of New York, who have formally
renowned their membership of the Republi.
can party, are duskily plotting with the Demo.
Gratis against the radicals so as to secure q con-
sentative tone to the federal administration.
II the government shall make such an alli.
ance against the best thought, the clearest
statesmanship, the noblest patriotism In the
whole nation, the administration of Andrew
johnson will become as dim as q rush.light
against the shining glory of Abraham Lin
coins!
This ridiculous threat is intended for
President JOHNSON. It will have about as
much effect upon him and his policy as
tallow candle might be expected to exert
upon the sun at MONDAY.

heard Republican say the other day that
=. ,,,orl3 cunnort Mr. Rycp fc, f1oua,vo,

heard Republican say the other day that
he would support Mr.. R1cs for Governor
he cared not on what ticket he might run,
or who was opposed to him; for, said he,
the people of this State cannot afford to
dispense with his services. If they had
paid him 100000 per annum while he
served in Congress, they would have made
money BY keeping him there in preference
to any other man; and now, if they had
to pay him $50, 1000 per annum to induce
him to accept the Office Of Governor, it
would be to their interest to pay him that
sum, rather than to accept the services of
General MARSHALL, although he would
serve the State without pay. Thousands
of Republicans have an equally high esti-
mate Of Mr.. R1cB's services. All who are
interested in the prosperity Of Minnesota
and the rapid development of its resources
are equally interested, without regard to
politics or politicians, in the election of
Mr.. R1oB; and the efforts of the Press to
defeat him viii only make many Republic
cans, who personally know his worth, the
more jealous and ective to secure his cleo
ton. Their votes, added to the Demo-
cratic vote, will, beyond all doubt, elect
him by handsome majority.
