The Cincinnati Commercial, edited by
The rreat Murat Halstead, repre-
ssnts that class Of Republicans IN
Ohio who procured the nomination
Of Greeley in 1872, and have never
affiliated with the Republican party
since. It's utterances may be taken
rs expressing the feelings OF that
class toward Hayes. Hear what it
says:
There has been scant justice done
HAYES IN his position Is candidate.
lie is OF the better sort OF tayorlte
sons. His services at the bar, in the
army, in Congress, aud as Governor,
have given HIM familiarity with pub
lie affairs. His army record has
brilliant points. He was a dashing
leader, was wounded at South Noun
tain. led the thanking charge in the
sanguinary battle Of Winchester, III
which Sheridan defeated Early, and
he prevented, by an extraordinary
march, the escape of John Morgan
acros the Ohio. Twice, recently,
Hayes has displayed Il distinctness
Of outline III utterance and action
that indicate the growth of execu.
tive character. We refer to his
quick and complete reply to the
question whether he was in favor of
the repeal of the Resumption act.
and to his suppression OF the riotous
miners. He said he was not in IA
vor OF the repeal of the Resumption
act until a stronger measure could
be enacted; and in the case Of the
rioters, he quietly but etfectually ex-
ecuted the law, doing his whole duty
without any shade of demagogery.
AS II candidate, Coy. Hayes will
improve upon acquaintance. lie is
a man without large development
of nonsense. He is a symmetrical
man-not y giant, bnt of good di-
mansions for reasonable service.
His candidacy is so clean and re-
spectacle that the Democrats will not
dare to do their worst at St. Louis.
We some time ago abandoned the
expectation Of employing the Demo
cratic party advantageously as an
agent of reformation, and we do not
look to it now to nominate a candi-
date of such capacity and earnest
ness in good works as to make Ohio
doubtful state in October and No
vember next.

POLAR ANDTROPIOAL WORLDS.
Modern Explorations and Discoveries In the
Arctic and south Polar Regions

Daring the last few years explora,
ton and research in the Polar and
Equatorial regions have been especi-
ally active. and great number of
these expeditions have been attended
with marked success, SO that our
knowledge of these portions of the
earth has been doubled within short
space Of time Barth, Speker, Du
Chailiu, and Livingstone have pene-
trate1 tho heart of Africa. Octon,
Squit., Agassiz, and Darwin have
traversed South America from the
Isthmus TO Cape Horn, and have
every way enlightened US regarding
that continent, its people, climate and
resources besides making large con-
tributions to our knowledge of natural
history. Wallace has explored Aus
tralia and the island, of the Malay
Archipelago and Hall not to men>
ton European explorers, has made
three successive voy eges to the Arc
tic regions, and has added greatly to
our knowledge of tho whole northern
world. These subjects possess great
interest to every intelligent reader,
but as each one of these eminent
explorers has written his book Of
travels and discoveries, to obtain al

new work embracing the cream Of
the whole of them has just been writ

Heidelberg University, and one Of
the most distinguished scholars in
Europe. ln this handsome volume
entitled The Polar and Tropical
Worlds" he gives us the results Of
all the explorations and great dis
coveries which has been made
Especially during the past 100 years.

200 engravings taken from pencil

adds greatly to its value and fit it for

Robbers In Crawford County.

EDITOR HERALD This little burgh
is OF late becoming notorious for rob-
berries. A couple of weeks ago a
couple of tramps stopped during the
day and stole FIVE shirts from a
clothes line, and lit out just at dusk.
Part of the missing property belonged
to Charles Brandes. They were
seen to leave at nightfal, going east
on the railroad track. Brandes took
the night express, and the conductor
stopped the train long enough at
Wright's Ferry to make inquiries.
There he heard that they had passed
on east The engineer passed them
at w auzeka, and told Brandes, who
had just time to get an officer and
receive them as they came to the
station, and stopped in to get drink.
They were promptly arrested, taken
to Prairie du Chen the same night
and next day Justice Veile, of that
city, gave them three months lodging
at Hotel Porter Sheriff.. When Or
rested they had the stolen property
on their bodies
This morning Mr.. Frank Bacon,
saloon keeper, boarding at the hotel,
awoke 70 find himself short from five
to six hundred dollars A travelling
genius stopped at the tavern last
night, coming here on a train from
Boscobel. He probably noticed
Bacon put his pocket book under his
pillow, a rather careless proceeding,
and took the opportunity to abstract
the same during the early hours of
the morning, leaving the hotel by
way of rear window. He is being
followed in all directions and appears
to be a young, short and heavy set
young man, light hair and complex
ion, with large whitish mustache.
An engineer coming east on the
morning accommodation, thought he
passed such looking man going
west on the railroad. REP.
