Mr. Doutwill, est tUe Finance?. Tho lato speeob of tho Secretary of the Treasury nt Philadelphia is notable alike for what it says and what it does not say. It is remarkable as con tai ning the most explicit declaration of th? policy of the administration in regard to the payment of tho public debt, principal and interest, in co in, which has yet been given to tho co d? try. Mr. Bo ut well said "he was aware of the differences of opinion as to the payment of the publie debt in the manner contemplated by the administra? tion, and would therefore) state, in a sin? gle sentence, the administration's entire ?olicy wish regard to the public debt as e comprehended it. It was that tho debt was to be paid, principal and inte? rest, according to the terms of the con? tract, i? coin, Or that which men will receive aa the equivalent of coin, without any abatement whatever." This is far more explicit than the language of the Chicago platform, framed by the conven? tion which nominated Gen. Grant foi the Presidency. It ia much more to thc purpose than anything said in either of the political platforms adopted by thc twq great partioa. We pointed out at th?time the ambiguous character of thc phraseology used in each, and while not assuming anything else than good faith for either, commented upon the impro? priety of employing terms upon suoh r subject which might admit of a double construction. Both parties agreed sub Stant'allv that the debt must be paie "according to tho terms of the contract ' But what were those terms? That wai precisely the question that men were led to answer for themselves, according tc their own notions of what was just oi expedient. It was this ambiguity in thc Democratic platform which enabled Gov Soymoqr and Mr. Pendleton to staue sirle, by side upon it. It was the same ambiguity in the Republican platforu which, while it satisfied the bond-bold ing interest at I tho Eastward, did not of fond the non-bond-holdiug tax-payers ol the West. Mr. Boutwell deserves the credit of bc in g moro frank and manly in the d?fini ticm of what ho conceives to be the tm policy of the administration and the dut; of thexpnutry. To the doubtful pbra* "tern??cf the contract*' he adds the une quivocal interpretation "in coin." Ii regard to the obligation of the Govern ment to pay its io toroa t, speedily accru ing from time to time, in gold, ther could be no question, because the prc mise was express-this express pro vi bi o growing but.of- the fact that at the tim o? the pendency ci the legislation authc ribing the loans, the Government wt also busying itself with the issue cf eil culating notes with which to carry on tl war. Was the obligation soy the lei binding in regard to this principal, bi cause at the time of con erecting the del nobody had thought of. stipulating e: presaly for its pay mont in the far f utui in gold? Under what had always bee implied from the constitutional provisic on the eubjeot of coining mouoy and r gnlating its value, suoh a stipulation he never been deemed necessary befor All debts of the United States, when n< specifically provided for otherwise, we understood to be payable in coiu or i equivalent. Contracts which are clear implied are just as obligatory in moral and as between man and man will bo e: forced with no less readiness by tl courts than those which are expr?s Mr. Boutwell does not understand th in this respect there is any different ru iu morality or law for the Governme and for individuals. But the Secretary's speech is no lc remarkable for its omissions than for i statements. It is notable as a spee upon the subject of the national finauci made by the highest financial officer the Government, in which there is rt one word, from beginning to end, in i ference to the possibility, or the desi: bility even, at any foture day, of a : turn to specie payments. Mr. Boutw discusses the present financial sys te pretty well, but he discusses it as if were the only or the permanent policy the Government. He seems to thi that "sufficient ipr the day aro the e\ thereof," and that it is no part of ] business to be devising plans or ron dies for the morrow. All his suggestif havo reference to the present only, a imply that as wo are doing to-day shall contiuue in tho future. This rx be very well for the bc>nd?Uolde.rs, that large class of commercial peo who, having profited aud grown rich tho existing system-a system of m< strously expanded credits, one bei heaped upon the other-havo no des that any change should bo made in th day, or else dread the possible cost o return from a period of inflation to reiluced standard of gold values. 1 has Mr. Boutwell no crumb of corni to dispense to tho much larger clase tax-payers of moderate or scanty men noel those who live by their daily t whom the present system tends onli impoverish? For these there is si consolation iu the ll.itte.ring picturo Secretary draws of the ability of country to go on and pay taxes and its debts; and his speech is not the c evidence he has giveu that after all h but a surface-doctor merely, and that skill extends no further than the pr ration of ponltiees and salves for the t en lal sores of the body politic and to tho suggestion of a remedy for its eases, or the adoption of means desi ti to work a radical ourc. That policy tbat practico which will bring the Go? vernment credit io par, making its paper equal to gold, is tho ono thing needful. Nothing short of it is satisfactory. \Ballitnore Sun.

Special Wotioos. ..HOW CHILLY THE EVENINGS IN OCTOBBR r*? _Tbi? is a common remark, yet how fow think of the danger of cxpoaing them Helves to their influence? In all low, maraby localities Ague and I"evor prevail at thia sea? son of tho year. lu this diaeaeo there ia inva? riably moro or less derangement of the liver and digestive organs. The remedies usually reaorted to have reference to preventing the paroxysm or breaking up the chills. If thia is effected without removing the cause, a relapao is inevitable. HOSTE TTE R'S STOMACH BITTERS Btrike d-'rectly at the foundation of the evil, by actir on the liver and correcting digestion. The cause being removed, the paroxysm will oeaes, and the chilla cannot re? turn. When the patient ia weak and debilitat? ed, tho BITTERS should be reaorted to, aa they will strengthen and tone the stomach, allay all nervous irritation, and infuse renewed animation intthe hitherto drooping spirits, without entailing tho danger of re-action. HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS ia truly a preventivo .medicino, rendering even tho feeblest frame impervious to all malarious influences; and, as a stomachic and anti-bi? lious medicine, it ia incomparable, and no one who valnea bia health can afford to do without it. Fortify tho system with thia intcatimablo tonio and in vigoran t, and the "Chilla of Octo? ber Eveninga" will have no '.error for yon.

PERHAPS no one medicine ie so univer? sally required by every body ag a cathartic, nor wa? over any be? fore so universally adopted into use, in every country and among all classe?, as this mild but efficient purgative PILL. Tho ** obvious reason ie, that it is a more reliable and far moro effectual remedy than any other. Those who have tried ii, know that it cured them; those who havo not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends, and all know that what it does once it docs always-that it never fails through any fault or neglect of its cemposi tion. We have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable coree of tho following complaints, but Buch eurea are known in every neighborhood, and wo need not publish them. Ad ipted to all ages and conditions in all climate?; containing neither calomel or any deleterious drug, they may bo taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar coating preserves them over fresh and makes them pleasant to take, while being purely vogotable no harm can arise from their uso in an v quantity. They operate by.their powerful inflnenco on the internal viscera to purify tho blood and stimulate it into healthy action-remove tho obstructions of the stomaoh, bowels, liver and other organs of the body, restoring their irre? gular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements as aro the first origin of disease. Minute directions aro given in tho wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these PILLS rapidly onrc: For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Listlessness, Languor and Loss of Appetite, they should bo taken moderately to stimulate the stomach and restore its healthy tone and action. Tor Liver Complaint tn? its various symp? toms. Bilious Beadache, Hick Headache, jaun? dice or Oreen Sickness, Bilious Colic aud Bi? lious Fecers, they should be judiciously taken for each case,to correct the diseased action or remove the obstructions which cause it. For Dysenterry or Diarrhcr-a, but one mild dose is generally required. For Rheumatism, Gout, Gravel, Palpitation of the Heart, Pain in the Side, Back and Loins, they should be continuously taken, a? re? quired, to change the diseased action of the system. With such change those complaints disappear. For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings, they should be taken in large and frequent doaes to produce the effect of a drastic purge. For Suppression a lurge dose should be taken, aa it produces the desired effect by aympathy. As a Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to promote digestion and relieve the stomach. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite, and invigorates the system. Hence it fa often advantageous where no serious de- i rangeaient exists. One who feels tolerably wei), often finds that a dose of these Pills makes him feel decidedly better, from their | cleansing andrenovating effect on the digestive : apparatus. Dr. J. C. AYER Ai CO..
