Indianapolis, Ind.V August 30. The following is the speech of Hon. Thomas A Hendrteks, delivered here this evening; Fellow citizens: I appreciate the pnji lege and honor or aaaressmg you, anu x recognize the dutv of speaking frankly and without concealment or exaggeraUon of any material fact or opinion, a May , I Qrst ask your attention to the necessity and importance of revenue reform. The power to imv knd collect taxes is among the high est and most responsible of the attributes of government. It ranks with the right and faculty of taking private property for public use, and with the right and power of transferring a citizen fronv the pursuits of private life to the duties afldhazards'of war. It takes from a man that which is K5q anii nrmrnnri atftH it to DUDliC US6. It - seizes upon the earnings of labor as well as upon ine accumuiawoiia oj. v every man the inquiry is of personal con cern, and the answer is of public conse-. quence how far may the government go in the exercise of its power to tax the peo ple? Freely and cheerfully, we all answer, . ihat there shall be no limitation or restraint upon the absolute and entire maintenance of public authority, with all of its faculties and functions unimpaired; whatever the government can lawfully do and of right should do, the tax payers will furnish it the means to accomplish. Beyond this isthe pro vincepf private right, to invade which is an usurpation. The government economically administered shall be supported . Are your men from the farms, shops and stores will ing that any other rule should be adopted? ; May they take your money for uses not au . thorized by the constitution or not for pub-, lie welfare, or that it may be piled iip in vaults to tempt the greed of the unscrupu lous? When war came taxation was ne cessarily and rightfully increased. Large revenues were needed to supply and main- tain great armies. But with the war and the expenditures consequent upon it there passed away the necessity for' the war standard of taxation. Why then has such a standard continued? The party that has held almost unbroken power for nineteen years of peace must respond to that inqui ry. In his message of December 4th,1882,i President Arthur admonished Congress that at a prior session he had urged , upon its attention the "importance of reliev - ing industry and enterprise of unnecessary taxation." In the same message he said that the people have been in substantial ac cord in the doctrine that only such taxes ought to be levied as are necessary to the wise and economical administration of the government. The President continued: "Of - late the public revenues have far exceeded that limit, and unless checked by appropri ate legislation such excess will continue to increase from year to year. For the fiscal year ended June 30th, 1881. the surplus re venue amounted .to $100,000,000; for the fiscal year ended June 30th, last year, the : surplus was more than $145,000,000." What say you, my countrymen,? Did that show ing not call for revenue reform during that Congresa? The House was made positively Republican, largely by partisan action, and not much heed was given by it to the start ling statement made by the President of the enormous excess in revenue. The modifi ; cation of the internal revenue system and of - the tariff, made in the March following, left " an excess of $85,000,000 of revenue. In his last annual report, on the 3d of December ' last, the Secretary of the Treasury estimates the surplus of the current year at $85,000,- 000, and adds, "so the question still presses what legislation is necessary to relieve the people of unnecessary taxes?" Yes, it is a question of $35,000,000 unnecessary taxes in one year. The accumulation is constant. In a speech made at Richmond, Mr. Calkins, . Republican candidate for Governor, boast ing of the achievements of his party, made ; fitatements which I adopt without examina tion, that "the Republican party found an empty treasury; now, it has a surplus of $400,000,000." That is an enormous sum of money; more, I believe, than half the paper currency of the country; estimating our population at 50,000,000. it is $8.00 for each man, woman and ehild. That great sura of money lies idle in the treasury. If it had been left with the people it would become the willing and active servant of labor. It would stimulate and strengthen old and develop new enterprises. It would ' restore to the merchant his market and give the farmer good prices again, lathe language of the Secretary of the Treasury, "the question still presses what legisla tion is necessary to relieve the people "of unnecessary taxe3 ?" It is a question of revenue reform. - Solve this question, my country men, by reducing taxes, and thus leaving money not needed by the govern ment in the pockets of people and the . channels' of trade and commerce. The party in power will not give us this reform. As the years have rolled by, with them i - power, the machinery of the ' law inexox able in its action, has gone on collecting from tax-payers in excess, hoarding and ac cumulating. The candidate for Governor boasts of the accumulation in contrast with low taxes and revenue and the empty treas " ury of former days. The -high rates and overflowing treasury of these times; bc- - come, in the appreciation of himself and , his political associates, achievements of .exalted statesmanship. Learning i and argument are exhausted in the political pa- - pers of these times,, in support, of high taxation, to the end and for the nurnose of relieving favored classes from the competi- I principles, and, he added, it -lion of generous and liberal trade. Of I safe to entrust thai party courgn rfivpniift refnrm must tnm' trm I Tl: : a: j. i i - - 11. V ISU. other quarters. It cannot' come from the representation of favored classes, who ask inequality in legislation that there; may be unjust inequality in the profits of the varied .. -" pursuits of the people. , , , . ' - May I ask your attention to the plan and - principles of revenue reform to . which the , Democracy are pledged by the Chicago platform ? '"Federal taxation shall not exceed the needs of the government econo mically administered." Do you approve that ? If not, would you have the govern- - inept wastefully, or corruptly administer ed, to make room and pretext for higher Federal taxes t" federal taxation shall be exclusively for public purposes." Would ' you have it otherwise? If taxation can . have for its object other than public pur ; poses, then what purpose ? May the oh , ; -ject and purpose be individual and private V gain.?; I do not question that it may be, ' nd often is an incident, -that lone man re : v ceives greater benefit or- carries a greater . ; burthen than another because of - the pre v;cribed'tax.

It is in acdordance.Uxthis senti mentlthat the Democratic party-stanoa pledged in its platf onn to reviso the tariff in & spirit of fairness to all interests, , and that "onw vhuntrA fit Uw must be ftt every step regardfttl of the labor and capital em ployed io the industries of the county, and that Mcustonvhouse taxes shall bear heaviest on articles of luxury and lightest on articles of necessity;" and that "necessa ry reduction in taxation caik and must be effected, without depriving American labor of the ability to competa successfully with 'foreign labor. . : i ' ,r- These principles of the platform are plainly written and easily ' understooa Tney present the . conservative purpose of the Democracy touching revenue ; reiorm. t When expressed in laws their beneficent influence will become actual and. univer sal. Lower taxes will , signify light er burthens upon the people; money re turning to the channels of trade; enterprise restored and stimulated; renewed demand for the products of industry and consequent; increased demand for laborj and universal, prosperity. If -the four hundred millions' now locked up in the treasury were restored to the channels of trade and commerce, who can doubt that labor wtould find em ployment and the manufacturer a market for his fabrics? " - ' I J : '. He referred to the, disgraceful condition of our ocean commerce, and said the obitu ary of our merchant navy is written in our tariff and shipping laws. Its spirit of en . terprise and daring that j once brought wealth to our shores and pride to our peo ple, and that furnished congenial employ 'ment to thousands of brave and hardy sons. is now buried in the treasury vault, under these four hundred millions of which Mr . Calkins vaunts ; -I "K : He then spoke of the lamentable condi tion of our war, navy and coast defences; quoted from the speech of Senator Harri son on the subject, and skid the Demo cratic ' party is not responsible for this amazing condition, of things; and asserted that the Democratic pafty - looks with shame and humiliation on pur present mis erable navy, and regards with anxiety our unprotected seaboard. It irould have war vessels of sufficient strength and number to withstand any naval power on earth, and make the flag respected upon every sea and in every port in the world. : All this, not for conquest, but for the preservation of peace on terms .consistent, with national honor The bill for the small addition to the navy . he understood was adopted by Democratic ; Congressmen! because of the want of confidence in the Navy Depart ment as at present organized." : " Y- He called attention to the fact that much is said about the foreign policy of the Pres idential candidates, and that it is claimed. Blaine will be more American and dashing. Mr. Hendricks said bis South American interference was neither Of " course we knew what vote, this claim is intended to reach. I think it will fail. The vote is too intelligent. " He called attention to (the platforms of both parties, and said they do not differ materially on subjects. He then contrasted the two cases that of Martin Eoszta un der Democratic administration, and that of McSweenev under Blaine as Secretary of State. He said in the .Koszta affair the courage of Capt. Ingraham, of the Navy, who demanded the releasb of Eoszta, and the learning and ability 0f Secretary Mar cy, not only restored Koszta to his liberty and to his rights, but established the same rights In favor of every; emigrant to this country. The case gave to our country great position and influence among other nations. - j " After reviewing the McSweeney case, lie concluded as follows: "Yf&s it not enough that Mr. Blaine was informed that an Ame rican citizen was confined in a British jail, and that he had been guilty of no violation of law, and that no charge of violation of law had been made' against him ? Could duty be plainer or .its neglect more flagrant? Had Marcy been Secretary ' of State at the time, would McSweeney have languished in a prison for ten months ? Would his wife's letter have lain! unnoticed in the State Department ? Under Marcy Ameri can rights were vindicated ; under Blaine they were neglected. x Not long since I mad4 the acquaintance of Gov. Cleveland.-: I found him one aff ar able and courteous, clear and distinct in his views, and strong and direct in the expres sion of his purpose, ne seemed to me as free from concealments and the arts of the demagogue as any man I know. As far as I could judge in a single conversation, I thought him in a marked degree governed in his official life by his convictions of duty. Yon do not expect him Uo escape criticism upon his official life. That can hardly be the fortune of any candidate. Touching that, I believe that his motives have not been impugned,, nor this honesty ques tioned. In respect to his private life we will not accompany his defamers in their search for ground of accusation, back of the overwhelming vindication by his neighbors, in three political contests of extraordinary brilliancy and success. - . NEW YORK.. A Small Attendance fat tbe State Con vention of tbe Greenback Labor .Party A Letter from J. C. Fremont. By Telegraph to the Morning Star.l " Nhtw York, August 0. The State Con vention of the Greenback Labor party was opened at Masonic Temple this morning. The Convention was Icalled to order by Geo. A. Jones, Chairman of the State Cen tral Committee. When his gavel, fell there were present about lOO delegates and about half as many spectators. In the opening . address," Mr. Jones saidj, "Fellow delegates, ladies and gentlemen H-The National party met at Indianapolis and nominated its third candidate for President Gen. Bert. Butler, loud applause and Gen. A.- M. West, of Miss., for Vice President. Ap plause. Two millions of young men who are about - to cast then . nrst vote are espe cially invited to vote with us; not as North ern men not lis Southern men but as citizens of the United 1 States who patrioti cally aesire to preserve and advance the interests of the whole (jounlry. Applause. Those who run the government now have robbed the farmers out of $200, 000, 000, and the laboring men out of 11,000,000,000, by the practice of systems that are most ob noxious and injurious)." ' ; ': - i ' Mr. Jones then proceeded to arraign the Republican party. The Democratic party, ne said, nas been inconsistent in its many would be un- with rower. Time is dissolving! the old Darties. he said, "and the time is coming when a party shall j bo placed; in j power that will put in circulation money enough to enable a man to be his own master." . , . On the labor question Mr. Jones said, "Both 1 the Democrat ; and v: Republican parties have made . working men : slaves, : and it depends upon themselves to free themselves. The National party represents the advancing civilisation of this age." t At the conclusion of Mr. Jones's address Alden Spencer was made, temporary chair man and the usual committees was named. While the committees were out James Shep hard, President of the Farmers' Alliance, of Wyominir, addressed- the Convention. He advised the Greenbackers, Anti Mo nopolists and laborers to unite. . ' , - - . , Prof. Cushman, of New York, - sang a campaign song, entitled "Turn the Rascals Out." The song declared that Butler was the man to accomplish this task. ' It was sung to the tune of fJohn Brown's body. The following letter is published this , afternoon in tke Mail arid Express: ' . York, August 30, 1880. Hon. B. F.

The horror of yesterday's calamity continues to throw a gloom over the city.- It happened that most of the through passengers on their way from hero to Henderson were, in cais on the barge, .while those on the steamer Belmont 'i were" mostly Evanvsville and Henderson people. The fury of . the storm was inconceivable and 'its work was fdono swiftly." Three times the cables lashing : the barge to the boat were snapped and the last time the barge floated ;away i.oitf of reach. Then it was that the boat, with a sudden lurch, too sudden to permit the escape of her passengers turned- over in fifteen feet of water, about the deepest be tween here and- Henderson. During the' first nart of the'storm CaoL Smith ordered the cabin doors locked to keep out the . drenching rain. When the last attacking wind came the pilot was heading the ves sel for the sand bar.torunher aground. The Captain ordered him to keep mtne cnannei, to back hcr.and keep her steady.: When the boat stopped the wind seemed literally to take hold of her and turn her over. Mr. Mitchell, of Evansville, was in the cabin, and thinking of the danger of capsizing, had, with the assistance of Samuel Butler, , also of Evansville, forced open the front door of the cabin. They got out on deck just as the boat began to careen, and by an unusual effort managed to hold on while the boat .went over, and in holding on to her . keel. Pilot James Kay. ; Engi neer Robert Redding, Milton Song, of Evansville,and another person, (name not known), also succeeded in holding on to the wreck- until taken off by a skiff. Mr. Mitchell cays the screams of helpless women and children in the cabin as the boat went over rang above the fury of the storm. . He saw Mr. Kooch, one of the lost, try to get out, but the boat had turned so far over that he fell helpless against the lowest side of the cabin. There were many narrow escapes besides those above men tioned. Jos. W. Reid, of Evansville, jumped to the barge, but was almost blown into the river, jjorsey fierce, express messenger, and Matt Braslcy, chief train dispatcher, also had narrow escapes. Late last night a diver was sent from Henderson and recovered the body of an elderly woman having a valise marked "J. W. M." and a collar marked "Martin," drowned in the cabin. : Divers will be able to recover the bodies soon.

Millot has asked to be relieved of the command of the French forces in Tonquin on the ground of ill health. Tbe government has consented to this and has appointed Gen. Briece do Lisle to supersede him. . Admiral Peyrow, Minister of Marine, has received the following dispatch from Ad miral Courbet: " - Min River, August 29, 6 P. Jf. Thanks for the expression of satisfaction on the part of the government I cannot too well praise the officers and crews. Operations in Min river have been concluded. They were attended with complete success. Alt the batteries along the river have been de stroyed and most of the cannon exploded with, gun cotton. We were obliged to lower some artillery behind ; in order to reach them would have been exposed to a heavy musketry fire to which no reply would have been possible. Our losses du ring the week are ten killed, including one officer, and thirteen seriously and twenty eight slightly jwounded. In the Mingan and Kenpai channels there were several casemated batteries. Two of these were clad from twelve to thirty centimetres thick with plates of sheet iron bolted together. The calibres . of the Chinese guns ranged from fourteen to twenty-one centimetres." Prime Ministcry Ferry has sent the fol lowing telegram to Admiral Courbet: "The country which hailed you as victor at Son tay is now your debtor for another deed of arms. . The government of the Republic is happy to express the nation's gratitude to your admirable crews and their glorious leader." Loudon, August 30. The Pall MaU Ga zette say 8: "There is not the slightest foun dation for the report that China wishes to come to an agreement with France. The Chinese consider the Foo Chow affair as an act Of treachery on the part of Admiral Courbet, who took advantage of the per mission accorded war-ships of friendlly powers to enter Chinese ports. The barba rity of contiuuing the fire for hours after the Chinese vessels had ceased, is cause for intense excitement against Europeans." 1 'annV--n1 ELECTRIC SPARKS.

The Mascotte held the first position and gained steadily on the en tire fleet until within two hundred yards of the Inlet buoy on the last round, when the top of her mast was carried away, throw .ing the jib entirely Into the 'water and bringing down one-half of the mainsail on tbe deck. Without doubt but for this ac cident she would have retained the cham pion flag. Just opposite the club house the Hard limes 'passed the Road and took the seeond place, which was held by her until the oc currencc of -the accident to the Mascotte, when she went to the front and won the race. ' In rounding the Inlet buoy the last time .both, iruddcr-irons of tho Rosa gave way and she was thus compelled to lower her sail and make tho home run under a lib and fcteered by a paddle. In this disabled condition sho was passed by the Restless. The: Bubble was capsized off the Club wharf in jibing the second time. The; new yacht Jt nantom participated in this regatta and her owners are satisfied with her performance. She is cat-rigged, and was so unfortunate in this race as to get into stays.! So much time was thus lost that she withdrew. Good work is confidently predicted for this boat,and commanders of all the fleet boats are warned to watch her well. .

The struggle between the Hard Times and the Rosa was the interest ing feature of the day. Those who are judges of such matters say the race, was a very pretty one. The yachts last alluded to went over six miles, of the course and only varied in speed from two to seven seconds. It is claimed that the yacht Mabel could not do herself justice- on account of tho ccntrc4)oard getting .jammed. ; The flag was presented by Commodore Pembroke Jones In fitting terms and re ceived by Capt.
