Frightening Prospects.

The Democratic National Executive
Committee has opened the ball for the
Presidential race with a ringing declara-
ton Of the principle and of object in
the canvass soon to begin; and the Con-
necticut Democracy have led off with a
platform full of sound doctrine and in
spring sentiment There is now a pros
pect of a settlement of Democratic
discussions on the currency, which, with
the postponement of minor questions and
a charge with energy and enthusiasm
along the line of corruptionists and rev.
enue thieves, will secure to the party of
the Constitution and the countryside
whole country, and nothing but the
country--a glorious victory. On the
whole, the prospects are Frightening,
and the clouds are breaking in every di-
rection.

lslature, on the 22d inst. ratifying the
settlement of the State debt made by the
commissioners. All direct State bonds
except those in aid of railroads are to be
taken up and new ones issued. They

per cent for five years, four per cent for
ten years, and five per cent. for ten
years. All past due interest coupons are
to be given up and cancelled.
The bondholders of the Alabama and

and take the road, franchises and land.
and receive in addition one million dol.
lars OF bonds, to bear interest as other

THE declaration against Grant, Cor a
third term and for Blaine, by the Re-
pu5licans of Wisconsin, has a bad look
for the administration, as well as for
Morton-the hope and expectancy of the
carpet-baggers. There is no malice in
Blaine, nor fanaticism-he is simply an
expert demagogue, who revived the war
issues to help himself to the Presidency,
Once in power, something like the spirit
of fairness and moderation, which he
displayed in the Speakers chair, would,
no doubt, be developed.

1 CHICAGO, Nov. 4--Thc Republican Legis]a-
tive Convention for the Sixth Representative
District nominated as candidates for the Gen
eral Assembly Mr.. Eugene A. Sittig and Mr. Il.
q. Thomas. After the adjournment of the
Convention various indefinite charges affecting
!: the moral aud intellectual character Of Mr..
Sittig were noised about in the district. Ger
tain gentlemen, among them members OF the
Convention, and OF the Republican Club OF the
Eighteenth Ward, thereupon organized
movement to put in candidacy, in place OF l{r.
Sittig. M. George E. Adams, of the Fifteenth
Ward. They circulated petition requesting
that gentleman to allow his name to be used as
q candidate which petition was signed by many
not acquainted with Mr.. Sittig, upon tue sup
position OF the truth Of the charge which had so
Been made against him. Since then it has been
found that there was no basis Tor the charges, at
least with respect to Mr.. Sittig's moral charac-
ter, and that nothing can be Justly said against
him, unless It be that he has not had the
crnerieuce to qualify him for a position
is the Legislature, OF that he had not the rea-
,isite ability TO fill such position All charges
Of want Of integrity have taller to the ground
disproyed.
Notwithstanding this, the petition signed IN. IN
presented to Mr.. Adams, and it Is understood
he has consented to run: It seems to me that
the gentlemen who circulated the petition and
are Mr. Adams doing themselves injustice IN n!-
lowing the petition to be used and acted upon
without first disabusing the minds Of the stsnefs
Of the charges made against Mr. Sittig. 1ney

Be said against Afr. Adams, yet it may well be
questioned whether he has SO far distinguished
