of insecurity. The recent disinrb
suns among the Indians occasioned
by the intioduction of whisky has re

have occurred already.. A request was
made for a sufficient number or troops to

and are being constantly incited by less
friendly Indians, with whom they are in
daily communication, to revenge the
death of their fallen comrades. They
have organized a war party against the
Pawnees, and have vfaited near their res
ervation and taken some scalps. The
Pawnees, in return, visited the Whet

horses.

NATIONAL FINANCES.

the _Nation— Public Debt, Principal
and'lnterest, to be Paid According to
the Terms of the Contract—He Favors
a Reduction of laxatioh Year bt Year—
Unanswerable Facts and. Pig res.
Clir Telegraph to the Pittsburgh Guet i te.3
PHILADELPHIA, October 9.—Secretary
Boutwell delivered nn address to d large
audience this evening its favor of the Re
publican State ticket, most of which was
. devoted to the financial question. He
stated, as the entire policy of the Ad-
ministration in regard to the public debt,
that it Is to be •pald, principal and inter
eat, aceording •to the - terms of the con
tract, and - in can, or that which men will
receive, an the equivalent to coin.
He dallied that if 'none of the public
debt had been paid since 1865, the funded
debt of the country would not bear less
than ;3,200,000 in addition to the $366,-
000,000 notes in circulation. If in these
font yeare, exhausted Its we hivedieen
-- bY was, We bees been tibia to pay twenty
ve or thirty-three per cent of the public
debt, shall we hesitate as to our course
for- the next few? years If 'we
were to payy
$100,000,00 a ear,
which we can do, if the' pres-•
ent system of taxation be permitted
to remain, the public debt will be extin
guished in less than fourteen years. If
we pay $60,000,000 a year, which we can
do at a decreased taxation, the interest
bearing public debt will bei extinguished
in leas than twenty-two years; and if we
pay but $26,000,000 a year, and reduce
taxation, as we may, to a very large
degree, the interest bearing debt will be
extinguished in thirty years. The as
tonishment is that under the circum
stances there should be any question
among any class of people as to what the
course of the country should be.
Bat, gentlemen, we are now paying on
a larger part of this debt six per cent. in
terest. The events of the last six or seven
months demonstrating the ability of the
people of this country to pay this debt
has rendered It not only probable,
but -I consider it is certain, unless
there shall be some disturbance of
the peace of the world—unless there
shall be some calamity national in its
character—l 'consider it certain we can
completely refund so much of the debt
as we desire to refund at a rate of inter
est _not exceeding 434 per cent, (ap.
planse,) thus saving to the country
and to the people who pay taxes...,
from 118,000,000 to $25,000,000 -a
year. You have paid $56,000,000 of
the public debt. since the Ist pf March
last. Shall we, in the presence of thaV--
fact, shrink from what is before us? To
be sure there is taxation; but it is not
grievous taxation, and more than that, it
can gradually, year by year, be Waite
ished. The burdens, whether heavy or
light, 'can be gradually removed from '
the people. • -
I thought it might not be uninterest
ing, although the facts are well known,
how far the revenues and proceeds of
taxes bear heavily upon the people.
During the last year, from distilled
spirits and manufacture and traffic in
distilled spitite, wine acid every kind of
liquors, was derived a revenue of 544,000,
000; Lox! tobacco, manufactured as well
sa in the various Corms, $23,0f0,000 more.
Here are nearly $70,000,000, *high, I
suppose; in theittdgment of most of co,
Is not unnecessarily heavy. Then about
$8,000,000 from- taxes on fermented
liquors. We get $6,000,000 from the
transportation of merchandise through
the country, which should be removed
as soon as the condition of the
Treasury will perinit. There are
about 56,060.000 more from the hale of
merchandise, and $8,000,000 from income 531,000,000 from stamps, and $15..
000,000 from other and smaller items suf.
llcent to make an aggregate of 5150,000,-
000. This system of taxation can be
changed so as to relieve the burdett of
taxation from the mass of the people. A
greater amount of 'the internal revenue
is derived from the luxuries of life, or
from taxes on people who are Able, to
pay, and the burdens upon the laboring
people of the country is, after all, very
small.
ME
/22E
But I must Ray that no system of taxa
tion is desired that does not look to a
larger taxation upon the luxuries or ac
cumulated property, thus relieving the
labor and ordinary business of life to as
large a degree as possible.
r. Boutwell Staten the reason which
controlled the Adininistration in the ap
plication of the surplus fund. Congress
had prohibited the diminution of the
amount of greenbacks, and neither them
nor the fifty millions of 3 per cents could
he redeemed without a departure from
the law cf congress,by which the Sec
retary was required o allow the volume
of currency to remain as it was when he
entered office. Thsrefore there remains
only the course whirl' has been pursued,
to issue sli per cent bonds at the market
price.
Mr. Boutwell concluded by an appeal '
to workingmen to see that the means of
education are furnished to the chilidren•
to inculcate justice, and rule the land
under the princlpales of virture guided
by intelligence.

CITY
.AND SUBURBAN.
, The Dome of et. Pauly,. .
When we ardently sighed for the tak
ing down of the proud, - but dangerous
wooden spire of St. Paul's Cathedral—
erected through the stupidity of soma
body as a transit2ry thing of glory—we
felt u that the proallsed dome to supplant
it as an ornament to that noble structure
would prove something worthy of inter
est, and of such graceful proportions as
- to add beauty to an edifice in which we
all haves pride, whether Catholic or
Protestant, inasmuch as it adds largely
-to the architectural attractions of the
city. .114 alas! for human hopes! The
mueb talked-of dome has at length mi
stimed shape and appeare like the cross
nactunted top of a batter bowl, or the per
forated' cap of a pepper -box. To be
plain, we believe it to be the most un
graceful piece of .architectural work die.
coverable on the continent, and whoso
ever has. authority la the matter should
at - 'once suspend .the work and,
order ' a design ' more consistent
with good taste and mcre in keeping!
with the general character of the edifice.
If such a dome be permitted to rest as a
permanent adornment of the Cathedral
we should advise those who have hitherto
whited to the massive pile with feelings
of pride to veksome other object about'
which to go into enthusiasm. Toe dome is
qut of proportion and squatty, ineulting to
sll rules of good taste and correct archi
tecture, and the sooner ft is replaced by
something - more in accord with the
original Idea of the massiveness and
heavy grandeur of the cathedral the
better. Wefeel confident that there has
broil some imistake , made on the part of
the carpenters In a departure, from the
design, else, the architect having the
matter in charge should hold his head fn

have de tied. -

The Fciurih Ware Aldermanfhlp.
MESSRS. EEII CiRS :—ln your issue of
Friday, the'Sth inat, I noticed a comma.
nication under the heading "Citizens
Candidate;" tailing upon Mr. John P.
ElOrnish to permit his name to be need
as " a
-candidate for Alderman, attired
'Many Citizens." Permit me to ask,
through your columns, who are the
many citizens spoken of? I have been
a resident of the Fourth ward for up
wards of twenty years, and have a fair
acquaintance throughoht it, and yet, I
am unable to discover the first citizen of
prominence or respectability who will
support Mr. Hornish, either politically
or otherwise.
. This would-be Alderman was originally
a Democrat; but ambitions of poiltichl
honors, he ignored the claims of. the
Democrats, thinking thereby to secure
the iidridnation of Alderman, at the
bands et the Republican Party. Being
dissetrously defeated at the primary eleo.
tion—receiving but 81 votes, while his
opponent, Alderman Donaldson, had
some 206 votes—he now accepts a mild
request, - announces himself a "Citizens'
Candidate." I ought further to say that
prior 1,0 this man's aspiring to Once, our
elections have always been harmonious
and satisfactory to all partisans;
_and I
think.it is but proper to again rebuke
him on to-morrow (Tilesday), by the
uniting of all citizens in the support of
Alderman Donaldson, who is too well
known to the business public Of Pitts
burgh'as Si man of integrity and Chßrac•
ter to need any comments at my bands.
