The Domocratic Convention yosterday accapted tho chief caundidatos of tho Reformers, and adopted thoir spocic-paymont rerolution with some changea for- tho botter.

Tho oxlatonco of o vigorous and lionest Opposition party in Michi- gan must be gratifying to all who long for a pure administration of national affairs. Lhat State, by its location, is woll adapted for a battle- ground ou which tha currency conflict may be fought out; snd we rejoico to say that tho Lionest mon have now the promise of victory. The, Ropublicrna of Bichigan, unfortunately, adopted o currency resolution of uncertain im- port, its object boing to reconcile tho an- tagonisms of Benators Forry and Chandler. Had Bauator Forry carried tho day, nothing would have intorposcd to provent a division of parties in Michigan according to tho viows of volorson this issno alono. As it is, mon of carnost con- victions, who desiro a return to specio, will not fail to support ‘tho Opposition candidatos. — THE FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. Tho vomination of Stephen A. Huslbut by the Ropublicans of tho Fourth Congressional District was n foregouo conclusion, but is none tho loss an indignily to the State. The poople of that district ave personally sequainted with the man, and of all tho eonstituoncios in tho Stato they, as o wholo, bave tho least sympathy with or respect for such a eandidnte. Occnslon- olly in tho large cities, tho saloons and lowor olements of socioty combine, seize tho machin- ory of party and force a roprosontative of their own class upon tho public; but it xarely hap- pens that a constitnency liko that of tho Fourth District permits iteelf to bo thus impdsed on, or, if impotted on In tho nomination, pormits itsolf to bo disgracead by elacting the candidate, The firsé nomiuation of Hurlbut was mainly tho resull of accident. At tho District Convon- tion in 1872, tho delogates wero so divided Lo tweon the Jtwo candidatos that thoso from ono county leld tho balauce. Thoy domanded tormsg which wneither candidate would ne- copt, and then, that county leading off for (IIurlbut, bo wns n@misated aver tho others. Tho nomination, we lavo overy ronson to beliove, was s offensive and disgusting 1o tho Ropublicans of the district as it wasa Aurpriso to overy one else. Novorthielens, thoro being o Presidential oloction at houd, and a Governor, and Logislaturo, and United Btnten Houatar at stake, the forr of division and dp~ foat on othier candidatos impolled thoussuds Lo vota for Tiurlbut who revolted at the sct, In this way hie was nominated and forced upon tho poople in 1872, Ouce in Congross and invested wilh power over the Postmastors and other Fodorsl oficors, lio got possession of the ma- chivery of tho party, and was ablo to have him- Bolf renominated unanimously. The poopls of that district bad sbout as much choico in tho mattor as thoy had in tho Iato eleotion of a King in tho Sandwich Ialands. ‘Whilo the intelligent and respectablo peoplo of Kauo, Dekalb, Doono, Melfoury, und Winno- bago Countics aro not responsible for this nom- ination, they will make {homsulves responsible if thoy permit tho distriot to bo aguin repro- gouted by Mr. Huribut, Tho Sccona Vaimout District wes oveu a stronger Ropubtican dlutriot thau the Tourth llinol, yet tho Ropublicany ‘| thero found it ta bo thoir duly to defeat Judge Polund, nobwithtaudiog niw great ability aund high porsonal cliaracter, In Uhis cano thero iy mothing in Mr, Tl but's clmacler, wor in his publie servico, nor in his prosent abilitios, to dotor any man who wanta the district to bo rospoctably ropro- sentvet Srom voling againet him, ‘We do not know who mny bo solected by tho Opposition.

In tho Lifth Distriot of this Stats tho oppos- ing nominces for Copgresa nro tho fon, D. J. Pincknoy, Indopondent, snd tho Ion, IL O Burchard, Ropublican. Both those gontlomen aro well known. Both have boon boforo tho po- plo moro or loss frequontly during a Bcoro of yoars; nnd It is gratitying to bo ablo to add that both aro good men. Mr. Pincknoy was formorly ho Principal of tha Mount Morrin Sominary, and is a8 woll and favorably known in iho ca~ paoity of cducator as of Btate Sonator. Ho claims to ba still a Ropublican, though rmoning in opposition to tho rogular Ropublican nomtnoo. Mr. Burchard, though not aman of brilliant parts, has approved himeolf an uncommonly in-~ telligent and valuablo mombor of Congress—one whoso advice is Rought and whoso character and ovinions aro respected. Ho has hold, undenia- bly, the lcading position among tho Iilinois mombors during tho prosunt Congress, having Dean & mombar of tho Committeo of Ways and Means, and a lending momber at that. On the two quostions of currency and tariff ho has boen true to his constituents nsnd to the higheet prin- ciplea of duty., If the Ropublican party were composod gonerally of mon a8 scrupulous.and faithful to thoir convictions as Mr, Burchard, thoro would Do no nood of Indepoudent move- ‘monts apywhoro, ‘Wobhnd occasion to eriticiao Mr. Burchard's courso on tho Sulary-Grab with some froodom at tho timo tho bill was pnassed and the moumoy talen, Mr. Burchard votod against the bill, but took tho monoy.

Tho law bolng roponled (in part, wo boliove, by bis vote), hio rofunded both according to his ngrecomont. Wo thinlc that it would have been better if o had nover {aken the back-pay, ovon for an hour, al- though his predocossor in Congresa took back- “pay under similar circumstances, but it is fair to say that ho lived up to hio promise, and that lo is not juenmbered with oither back or forsard pay ab tho presont timo, THE POLITICS OF ITALY.
