Stilwell on this subject, published in the Heratp on the 25th of November last, thas attracted so much attention that hundreds of letters have been received asking for copies of the lecture. To ipply this demand, in part, a committee of business men, who believe in the truth of this production, have ©aused a large edition th be handsomely printed, with motes, in pamphlet form. By addressing Enoch Armi- Gage, Eeq., No. 34 John street, all orders will be filled for ost and expenses, which will be ten dollars per hundred (- We-eannot teo steongly recommend to the public this mportant lecture. It is worthy of a careful and thought- ‘ntox, and it should bo extensively published by elf ‘mowspapest and magazines, Ifthe ft Logical con- ‘clasions ‘sot forth in the paper be true, and we believe ‘they are, then the price of gold is not governed by paper currency, but by the European demand and California sup- ply. This fact relieves the question of currency in ourcoun- try from embarrassment, and also settles another point, Jong lisputed, that 1t is not the number of dollars in cir- culation by which the abundance or scarcity of money is determined, but the price or interest @hat it brings in our chief market towns. This lecture¥is the result of great research and experience. It proceeds from one of ‘the most profound thinkers and best informed men on political economy and finance in our country. All our members of Congress who seck for the truth should read this paper carefully, and al! our editors should do the gamo, ang comment upon it, because it may be the means of saving us from a great and frightful calamity by con- traction, and which contraction would not iead to specie payments, but to ruin.

The speech was entirely extemporancous, and was strongly fortified ,with cita. tions from the enactments of Congress during the war, going to show that Slate lines in the Soath were never lost sight of when providing for the collection of internal revenue in those States, and that the doctrine of leg lating for them as conquered Territones only was an af terthought. Mr. Johnson spoke about two hours, and at the time of adjournment Senator Howe was in possession of the floor. The fatter gentle detail to the argument of the Seaator from Maryland to. morrow.
