Got. GroTer Speech. According to annotrooement Governor Gro wer ipot the tonrt ao,ue on weaaeMay Jcinir one of the beat speeches we have lie- tened to for year- speech which we wish ery voter in the county oonl J have heard. There TO nothing of the tunal characteris tic of etump speeches. It wae delivered in , calm, deliberate manner, and would have located enthusiasm in almost any audience. jhe'iiiiBWin attendance was not large, but lbey listened to his words witn close atten tion He reviewed the Grant adminisistion land held up its faults to the people as they fcre. In illustration of how the Government g administered he told an incident which oc curred in Tortland on the 4th of July. Mr. Bewley of Salem had been invited to read the Declaration of Independence, and being some tbin&of an elocutionist and very proud of the Jiooor done him, be committed tne .Declara tion to memory and delivered it in fine style, (particularly emphasizing that part wherein the grieveances are related that "the present King of Great Britain has" created a multi tude of new offices, " etc After the exercises were over an old gentleman from Folk coun ty wanted an introduction to the man who anaile the first speech. "Oh, that was Nes muth," said the one to whom he applied. "But," said he, "it wasn't Nesmith j I know Ifa. J I live up in Polk. It was that young man. He made the best Democratic speech I ever heard. He stated the condition of our country exactly." He was somewhat surprised to learn that the "Democratic speech" was one made iy the colonists of .America over a hundred years ago. But it tits the ease now a it did in 1776. The (Governer referred to the statement of Sena Iter "Mitchell" that the figures of the depart ment of finance at Washington showed that during General Jackson's administration the leasee oti each one thousand dollars collected by the Government amounted to $8; while the losses under Grant's administration have been less than 60 cents on the $1,000 collect ed, The betftf at Washington do not show the frauds perpetrated upon the Government .-and upon the people. Take the single item of whiskey out of the tax on which the Gov ernment has been defrauded, and it would ladd at least fifty millions to the losses which should be chargad to Grant's administration. And here we will supplement the Gover nor's speech with a few facts in relation to these whisky frauds. These facts are gath ered from a speech by Hon. J. M. Binckley, of Chicago, a former Republican and Solicitor of Internal Revenue. In 1861, when there was no tax oa whisky, the total production ras 104.000.0C0 gallons j in 1862, 1 12,000, 00 gallons; this had been the rate of increase Jor years, and at this rate of yearly increase (the production in 1863 should have been 120, tfOO.OOO gallons; of 18S4, 128,000,090 gallons; f 1865, 136,000,000 gallons; of 18C6, 144, 000,000 gallons; of 1807, 152,000,000 gallons; of 1868, 160,000,000 gallons; and of 1870, 176,000,000 gallons. There is not the least doubt it was much more. Commissioner Delano himself admitted in his report for 1870 that the producing capacity of license atills alone, not including illicit stills nor fruit stills, was 203,912,800 gallons for ten months' run. For these years, after the tax was put on, which ranged at 20 centi in 1863, $1 60 in 1884, f2 in 18G5-66-67-C8, and 60 cents in 1869-70, the amount produced was 1,184,000,000 gallons. But there was returned for taxation only 299, 96,523 gallons. The tax that should lave been paid would amount to $1,559,200, O00, whereas the amount paid was only $189, 061,790, showing a loss on this one item of one billion, three hundred and seventy millions, one hundred and thirty-eight thousand, two hundred and ten dollars in figures, f 1,370,. 138,210. Take the dollars lost each year on whisky tax, and take the dollars paid the same year, interest and principal, on the pub lie debt, and simply suppose that the former had been collected and promptly added to the latter, and the result will show that if it had not been for whiskey stealings the na tion would not now owe a dollar 1 Returning to the Governor again. He mentioned many instances of fraud on the Government, prominent among them those of the Indian Department He referred to the so-called "protective tariff," which has pro tected fifty per cent of all the woollen and cotton mills of the United States into bank ruptcy, and protected the merchant marine fleet of this country out of existence, bring this matter home to the wheat producers of this State in the fact that no American built hip ever comes to Oregon to load wheat All the wheat shipped from Oregon goes in foreign vessels, and the freight money goes to enrich Europe and impoverish America. His speech was replete with interesting facta, but want of apace forbida further mention. At the close of the Governor's speech Gen eral Joseph Lane was called for and address ed the audience briefly on the issues before the people, winning their hearty applause. The General labored ander the disadvantage of having contracted a very severe cold, but acquitted himself nobly. The seventy-five yean, most of them active, busy one, which have passed over his head have left him phys ically weak, but his mind still retains the old time vigor. Ko ACDH5CI. Messrs. Henry Klippel and W. H. Odell, candidates for Presidential Elector, were annoenoed to apeak at the court noose on Thursday. There were, however, bat eight persons present, and no speeches were made. Mr. Klippel did not eome to Eugene, having arranged with Mr. Haawd, District Attorney, to apeak in his stead. There is some talk of having the discussion est Monday evening, but we do not know that anything definite has yet been ' decided Trade dollars are worth 83 cants. Clrcnlt Court Docket.

Mr. Hazard won many friends by his energy and attention to business at the late session of the Circuit Court in this city, and if he continues to gain friends at this ratio during his present term, there will be many voters in this judicial district in favor of giving him a second lease on the office of Prosecuting Attorney.
