Though the notice given that he was to speak, was short, the0Conri House was not large enough to bold all who desired t) hear him. At 7 o'clock, the speaker was introduced to the audience by Col. W. L. White. He spoke lor nearly nvo hours in a masterly style, making every fiojiit he touched upon clear to the hearer. Never was there an audience so completely spell-bound as that which listener! to him. Every one seemed to be anxjouto hear the groat issuePdiscussed 1t the champion of the people (or the Democracy to-day, as they have always, stand between the people and the bondholders and nu imperial-government. We have riot space to go into a minute summary of Lis speech. lie convinced every hearer that at least one-half of the present debt Is an extortion from the peo ple, and for which never one cent came into the Treasury of the United States, and that, if an equitable adjustment is ft ad of the debt, the country could at least -.ive one-half of the money which is now o'.lrcted and reduce the actual iu- indebtedness.

What i a Tonic t Bear this in mind. that although a tonic is, to a certain extent, a stimulant. a stimulant, unmodified by any medicinal substance, is not a tonic, but a debilltant. In IIOSTETTEIUS STOMACH BITTERS there is a stimulating element of the purest grade manufactured in this or any other country. Every fiery and corrosive oil or acid which contaminates the ordinary liquors of commerce, is expelled from the rye spirit which forms the ( alcoholic basis of the BITTERS, by careful and repeated rectification. The juices of the valuable roots, barks and herbs, infused into this wholesome product of the finest grain, still further modify its nature ; so that it become?, in fact, a simple diffusive agent. minus all the heady and brain exciting properties which belong, more or less, to all liquors in a raw state. It is merely the safe and harmless vehicle which ren ders the medicinal virtues of the prepara tion effective. increasing their -active power, and diffusing them tnrough the system. Hence the pleasant and gentle glow which is experienced after taking a dose of the BITTERS. Instead of cr eat ing headache, as unmedicated stimulants are apt to do, this salubrious tonic is the best known remedy for that complaint. It calms and sooths cerebral excitement, strengthens the nerves, promotes the secre tion of the gastric juice, invigorates the bowels, determines the fluids to the sur face, improves the appetite, increases the animal vigor, regulates organic action, and. from its mild yet effective alterative qualities, is the very best preparation tht.t can be administered to the weaker sex in the peculiar difficulties to which their or ganization subjects them. 17.it From the new Dominion."

Our own opinion is that no family should be without a bottle of it for a single hour. In flesh wounds, aches, pains, sores. c, it is the mest effectual remedy we know of.
