The Republican party is unanimously
of the opinion that the iniquitous records
Of all its strong and representative men
had rendered them SO deservedly obnox-
ious as to make it impossible to elect
them. so they take up a man whose
only recommendation is that nothing bad
sproven against him; and whose only
strength is that the bad men who have
controlled the Republican party are con-
adent that they can control him, have
closed their bargain with him, and placed
him in the field as their representative.
Hence HAYES became the embodiment
of all the sins of the Republican leaders.
Ast sins Of either one of them are
enough to justify his being thrown over
board by the party, how much severer
Judgment should be visited upon the man
who became the heir to the sins OF them
all?

ing that he has not yet decided whether
or not he will accept; but that in case he
arrives at an affirmative conclusion NJ
will not enter upon the duties of the
office until after the pending approprla-
ton bill shall have been finally passed by
Congress. His colleagues on the Appr"-
priation Committee, of which he i.
chairman, and large number of promi
nent Senators, earnestly desire that he
should remain with them till at least that
time.
The commission of Mr.. Morrill,, as
Secretary of the Treasury was signed BY
the President at 2:30 o'clock this after.
noon. This is noted as being one of the
quickest executive actions OF that charac
ter that has ever been consummaled.

MEssRs. HAYES and WHEELER are in
debted tor their good iortune-lf it is
good fortune-to two things. Personally
all that is upright and amlable, they have
no, made themselves offensive to the
honest men ofthe country; and they hare
done nothing to earn the ,Lt-t0iu and dread
Of the Misrss--Sprinqdstd Republican.
The reform pledge-taken, we believe,
by the Republiean-says that "a man to
be entrusted with the Presidency this
year must have deserved not only the
confidence of honest men, but also the fear
and hatred of the thieves The Repubti-
can says that HAYES has "done nothing
TO earn the ill-will and dread Of the
thieves"

had escaped great calamity-the calam-

They breathe freer, now that they have
man about whom nothing is known,
either good, bad, or Indifferent. There Is
no danger of HAYES being impeached or
indicted before the canvass is over, and
that is great comfort. 1t is also con-
soling to the plunderers that if HAYES
is elected none Of them will be impesched
or indicted, if he can help it. So both
sides are csRgratulating themselves-the
one that their leader has never done any.

dent in the field now. His vote will not
be ess in Ohio than that cast last year;
and the chan ces are that it will be much
greater, for over 10000 votes have been
polled i'll that State for Temperance
nominees. HAYES received a consider
stle Democratic vote last year; which
he cannot depend upon this year.
While the chances are in his favor 1t will
