The following are extracts from
the speech of Senator ingalls,, dellv
cred in the United States Senate

"The moral sentiment of mankind
has been aroused at the uasqual dis
tribution of wealth and the unequal
diffusion Of burdens.

years the wealth of tie country in
creased at the rate Of $3.50, 00J for
every hour Every time that the
clock licked above the portals of this
chamber the aggregate permanent
wealth Of this country increased more
than so. Notwithstanding this stu
pendous aggregation there are mil
lion American citizens, able bodied
and willing to work, who tramp the
streets of our cities and the country
highways and byways in search Of
labor with which to buy their daily
bread, in vain

Ohio, devoted considerable part of
his remarks yesterday to the defense
of millionaires, that he declared to
be the froth Of the beer of cur politi-
cal system.

dueers aud laborers; they are arrayed |
like solomon in all his glory, but
they toll not, neither do they spin.

economy.
