THE PRESIDENT REPLIES.

follows: Il am very glad 10 have been nitro
duced to you upon this occasion ~ my WISH
to the capital of the Empire state by the hon.
David b. Hill its Governor, and having but
few moments to speak, am grstified that
the distinguished Governor who preceded
me invited me to como nearer the
stand BY tho wise withdrawal of public
guardianship you are enabled TO come
closer and hear the few words which | have
TO speak have received with satisfaction
of this great State. II is very gratifying for
me, as a citizen and ofice-holder of the
United States. IL is a pleasure for me TO
come and say that all matters Of differ
ence which have ever existed in the different
parts of the country have been obhterated
and all the people united in a common
brotherhood. This Empire State has great
wealth and resources that reach out all over
the country There has been time when
cry was raised against New York being an
existing creditor.
FINANCES AND THE CROPS.
'g'hese narrow views will not prevail in the
enterprlsing neighborhood or where the
States are united in brotherhood. The Gov
ernment is pledged to maintain the money at
par for every one hundred cents on
dollar. whether paper OF com, com
stamped being as good any other dollar, We
should avoid the experience of a southern
y
currency, then the men from your shops who
turn ont the surplus and the farmers have the
greatest interest IN receiving one hundred
cents on a dollar. We have this year an extra
ordinary agricultural crop. THIS crop is
worth a billion dollars over that OF last
year. Then we find that the Government OF
Russia has prohibited the expectation OF rye
France and Germany viii al. ,rb every Cgshei
of wheat on hand in those countries. whatever
complaints there may have been IN the past,
this wear there will be smile over every agri-
culturist's face in the country. The granaries
of the country are unable TO hold the grain
and this will bring back the lost gold OF the
past years. II should be happy people, f0r
all conditions are favorable and order should
prevail and above all there should be patriot
ism and an adherence to Constitution aud
love"
