Assuming the correctness OF Commissioner
Wells estimates. published by us yesterday, it
would seem that the natlonal debt il pretty
certain 70 be wiped out within the next quarter
# 8 century. Indeed, he concludes that 1t will
be paid OF some time between fifteen ana
~enty-three years from the present time.
Tins, however, Is all based upon the existing
high rates of taxation and on Mr.. Welis'
belief that public sentiment would not be sat.
isfed to have less than fifty million dollars set
aside each year for the purpose Of redeemins
the bonds. But upon these points there are
likely 70 be differences Of OPINION. For our
part, we feel quite certain that what the coun.
try wants just now good dsal more than the
speedy extinguishment Of the public debt d
reduced taxation. Surely there must be some.
where middle ground, which will combine
lower taxes with Q gradual reduction of the
debt; and our statesmen and fiuanciers should
set themselves about discovering this, instead
of figuring to find out how quick the debt can
be paid on by exhausting the resources and
everlasting the energies Of the people New.
ertheiess, Mr.. Wells estimates, in which we
have great confidence, furnish a most gratifv
ing exhibit, and one which cannot fail to exert
q good influences on the national credit.

The announcement of the resignation by
Judge Richardson Of the ONCE OF Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury is quite certain to be
the signal for political comblnauons and out

The municipal election to come off TO.
day is one Of greater interest than any
which has ever transpired in our city.
None, so far as the interest Of the city
and its citizens are directly concerned,
could involve more important issues. We
have just passed an ordeal in which its
greatest pecuniary interests were at
stake, and when all was saved from
bankruptcy by timely process of law.
We are now, as we were, in a transition
state While we have been just re.
lieved from tho thraldom in which the
prosperity Of the city was bound, we are
still mot clear of the breakers which lie
just before US, whereby we may be
placed in a worse condition, if possible,
than during any time of the past twelve
months. While we are cut loose from
the ring, we may find ourselves in the
clutches of still more voracious herd
who are ready to draw the last drop of
vitality from the body polite
While we are out now in state of un-
certainty, 1t becomes every one to come
forward to our rescue. The issues in-
vOlving the fortunes of the city for the
next twelve months will be decided to-
day. And not only will they be decided
for the next twelve months, but in the
scale will be thrown the destiny of the
city for an indefinite period for veal or for
sad disaster We should not place the
city in the care of those who conspired
her ruin before. We want no more of
Radicalism-they were our bane once;
why repeat the dOse2 We see their va
rious schemes to get into power we
should guard every point. We should
not allow their mixed tickets to mislead
the true man. We should not listen to
the various rumors which, according to
custom, they will attempt to spread on
the heel of the election Nor should
we admit the frauds by our enemies or
the blunders of our friends to disturb
the onward progress Of our cause-as it
is the cause Of reform, retrenchment
and safety.
In the municipal election, we hope the
COED of the city will not be interrupted
by any side issues. If our preference
is served, well; if not, then act like
those who are willing to sacrifice private
feeling to public interest. SENEx.
