MR. SHIELDS SPEKcH.-The best answer we can make to the invitation of "lhe 120' repre-. sentative in congress to resign his seat, win be found ip the able speech of this gentleman, the publication of which we commence to-day.

 It will be found to contain those southland practical views the banking and currency questions of the day, which are altogether in keeping w,h the spirit of the times. and daily ripeniag into conviction the minds of all thinking of all parties and classes. Tho suaerings inflicted upon the people of h,s try by the abuses of banking still exist. but the moral power of the banks over the country, is gone. The unbushing dishonesty, the grinding expressions of the irredeenabe system having been felt, begin- ing to be rightly understood, and the value of such speeches that of Mr. Shields, consists in he truth with winch its pcrnicious working upon the pockets and the morals of the people is portrayed No mans time will be thrown away in careful perusa of this speech. and a thorough examination of the mass of information, contained in its tables. .-
