the Third District, addressed large audience OF
his constituents at the Athennum, last evening;
in & clear and forcible speech Of an hour aud
half. He completely absorbed tho attention Of
his large audience, who frequently greeted him
with rounds OF appliance. His illustrations OF
points Of political economy were plain and con-
vincing; STOPPING to no petty insinuations IN
speaking Of rivals, which won him many en-
comiums. In short, his speech WAS logical
saying he should endeavor to say nothing that
would sting the senslbilities Of the many Re-
publicans be noticed present. He did not be-
long to that clasB or party that Thought all the
best men were on their side, That party was
best which pointed out and tried to right the
wrongs Of an Administration; that the greatest
enemy is that party which reeks in corruption
and wrong, and refuse to remedy it. He I'd.
mired the honesty and spirit exhibited by men
seveiing their connection with 3 party confea-
party for reform and political purity.
Many declared Greeley inconsistent,
and said many bitter things, but in the exciting
days gone by there were few men that had not
committed themselves. When the Democratic
Ben: Butler, Simon Cameron, and Morton, and
hosts of others equally corrupt, who stood by
the party while it Was dominant, stood by the
fiyes loaYes and seven fishes like brave men, but
who pulled up their tents Ike Arabs when the
tide turned, and stole over to the Republican
ranks. Then it was that Mr.. Greeley poured
hot shot into Democratic ranks, aiming only at
such men, ind would to God he had hit them.
Il the Democrats and Liberals lad besn
inconsistent in joining together in this new
movement, be didn't cure, SO long as thoy we're
right in the main. Mr. Greeley has been in
consistent in his way ss an humble explorer in
tile march of development, but the people hon
ored and admired him, and he beloved he
would make good President. AL accorded Mr.
Greeley honesty and sincerity Of purpose:
OF Grant he should not say an unkind word:
iasm by blackening the character of another.
If he could not make his way to preferment
otherwise than by the ruin and degradation Of
his fellows, he would be contented to occupy an
humble position, and pass through life union
ored and unsung.

COMMERCIAL.

As Is usual at this season, money is
becoming stringent at the different
centcrs Of trade, chiefly because of
the drain from the interior to move
the crops, and because of too free in
vcstments by the Banks TO make in
tcrcst during the dull months of the
year. In New York, loans subject to
call, are now Z per cent, which only q
short while ago, were 3 to 4 +; and the
best commercial paper is now quoted
at 10 to II per cent, which few weeks
since was easily placed at 6 to z. In
Louisville and throughout the west,
the volume of the currency is made
quate to the demand, even before n
dollar has bcca paid out on account of
their immense pork trade So the
outlook now is, that at some points,
money will become during the season,
extremely stringent, and as a consc
quencc excessively dear.
Without enquiring particularly into
the cause Of these periodical changes,
from extreme ease to extreme strin-
gcncy, We will simply remark, that it
is to be found mainly in the peculiar
nature of our currency, rendering il
incapable of adapting itself to the
varying wants of trade.
Having less variety Of interests to
protect. our own money market is more
regular and uniform. Our whole trade
rests so exclusively upon our staple
that the demand for money with us
has become as much a subject of cal
culation as the alienation of the seas
ons. At this period of the year, money
at this center is always extremely easy,
aud continues so until December OF
January, when it begins to be wanted
to move the tobacco. During the last
two seasons, particularly that of 1876
and 1871, the demand for this purpose
was wholly insufficient to give full en-.
ployment TO the surplus in our Banks
and. without some extrancous disturb
ing influence, money will be sufficiently
abundant the coming season, at the
usual rates, to move the largely in.
creased amouat of tobacco which will
find market here.
Exchange is very scarce, though tn,
Banks manage to supply the demand
at the usual rates. Nothing is beina
shipped except few barrels Of -four
and consequently no Exchange is being
made.

ELEGANT TRUNKs.-One of the most
lastly displays of home work, at the
Louisville Exposition, was the mag
niGccnt assortment of Trunks, Nalises,
etc, exhibited by ID. O'Hare, of that
city. The Bridal trunk was the
most elegant and at the same time the
most durable specimen in the trunk
line we ever saw. We noticed one he
calls the Ladies Toilet, SO arranged
that when open it looks like bcauti-
full dressing bureau, with drawers,
boxes, and all the necessary apart
meats for the complete wardrobe and
toilet Of the fair sex, and when placed
together and locked it presents beau
tiiul and substantial trunk. Mr..
OIIare has house at 10 Main street,
between All and 9Th, where he manu-
features these and every description of
trunks that are used in this or any
country. When any of our readers
visit Louisville we hope they will call
at this establishment and examine
the extensive and varied stock kept
there, at prices to suit every purse.

LOUISVILLE AND CINCINNATI Ex-
PosTTIoNs.-We visited the Louisville
Exposition last week, but feel our in
ability to speak of it in detail. The
language of one Of our contemporaries,
which We adopt, must suffice. "The
building is one of the largest and most
imposing in the United States, while
the architectural arrangement within
is surprisingly tasteful and attractive.
The vast halls are filed with every.
thing useful or wonderful in science,
unique or beautiful in art, and the
rarest gems of Natures bountful ere
alton, in all the wild iuxuriancc of
their native fields, forests and noun
tains, add fragrance and beauty to the
whole, while constantly playing
fountains, and charming miniature
lakes. made one forget the dust and
heat of summer. 1t is great work,
one that reflects the highest honor
upon the beautiful city which gave
it existence, and speaks in no I'M
certain language, the enterprise, liber-
atty and genius of those who con
ccivcd and executed the work"
Hearing that the King of the Turf,
Longfellow, was on exhibition at the
Fair Grounds, we went out expressly
to see him. He is fue specimen of
horse flesh, and worthy of all the adj
miration that has been bestowed upon
him. He stands sixteen and three
quarters hands high in his shoes; is
five years old, having been foaled in
1861 is by imported bennington, and
out of Nantura by Brawncr's Eclipse.
He is a handsome brown; his hind
legs are black TO the thigh, and his
foreleg nearly to the shoulders, giving
him the appearance Of wearing long,
silky black stockings. His left hind
foot is white from above the ankle to
the hoof, and there is long white
blaze in his face, reaching from be-
tween his eyes to his nose. lie has o
kindly eye, is clean limbed, and has
small, firm feet. He halted very slight.
~ on the left forelcg, which was
wounded in his last race with Harry
Basset, but the halt orlimp was barely
sufficient 10 be perceptible."
| We also visited the Exposition a
Cincinnati, which is gotten up on {
grand and imposing scale-thc differ
cncc between the two being in size, a'
Cincinnati has about seven acres O
Ground inclosed. Inside of this i'm
mcnse structure is an endless varict!
of beautiful substantial, and scientific
displays of which mortal is capable o.
invcnting. These things must be seer
to be appreciated. We were kindl!
received and treated by the officials
and are glad to know thai both cite,
will reapa rich harvest from thcil
efforts to produce industrial shows fol
the qualification of the thousands whC
visited them. Our space forbids furth
CT mention.
