MoKoighnn would deliver u non-partisan npooch at tho opera houso on Tuesday night, Sopteiu- her lUth, tho houso was well filled, and tho speaker was introduced by tho Hon. Jus. Gilliam, who, iu a few sententious remarks, denounced tho reckless legis lation and showed thu importaiico of a unison of tho peoplo to prevent it. Ho also said that Cong. McKeighnn and ho had differed as to who should bo county sheriff aud similar oIlleerH, but woro vir tually the same on greater issues. Ho said that our pcop'o had boon fairly rop resented in congress, und that, in intel lectual merit, Mclfoighnn'B speech would compare with any mado in congress this year. Congressman McKeighan thou proceeded in his usual graceful manner and, with thu exception of frequent in terruptions by an ignorant and obstrep erous man in fiout, thero wus no pnuso till thu close. His speech was logical and instructive, und ho treated his Bubject with ability and fairness. Lack ot spaco nnd a full tiro to procure thu speech vor batim precludes ur from giving It tho publicity it deserves. Holow, howovor, will bo found a synopsis and extracts of tho ad dress: "Calamity howling Ib tho cause of tho great financial depression. News spreads quick and people aro quick to tako alarm. Wall stroot attempted to touch tho west an object lesson. At tho timo tho Sherman luw passed, reports show tlmt wo had $210,000,000 in gold, and tho panic 1b not due to tho Sherman law; it would havo occurred anyhow. Wall street was bound to force a bond issue. When tho panic came on, peoplo went to tho banks for their money and thon hoarded it up. I urn unnblo to see that tho Sherman law Iiiib any connection with tho condition of tho country. Thero is no intelligent man who would dispute but that it would bo as easy to tako gold out of thu country with tho Sherman law ns with it. How will tho repeal of tho silver law havo anything to do with keeping gold in this country? All over tho south, darkies nro paid in silver they do not think it is depreciat ed. Whon I was in Washington, I received letters from friends, asking mo to enclose a small rtmittnnco und thereby restore confidence, and they did not object to silver. I havo u friend in Now Orleans who said that, because of tho newspaper cry, thu people mado a rush on tho banks and drew out their money and hoarded it up, Tlioro is no object in running n bank when you aro compelled to keop monoy on bund to pay deposits. Many men have ngrucd that this panic was caused with an object of scaring tho people, Thos, D. Reed ot Maine ia tin ucknow. lodged loader of tho republican party; Hurko Cochrono of Now York is tho democratio leader, I want a doublo standard, because if onomotal should bo culled abroad, the other could remain. There is no human law that can regu late tho va'.uo ot dollars; it is regulated by supply and demand. Iicforo this congress is over, I predict that tho panic will bo over, and beforo this session is over, tho question of Amorican banks will become uppermost. Tho question !b, how can you keop tho two great coins on a parity ?
