Judge William White was nominated
Tor Supreme Judge ; Milton Jiarhes
for Secretary of State," and George
Paul as Commissioner of the Board of
Public Works. The platform and res
olutions are all good and haalhe ring
true patriotism, especially the follow
ing :
The disposition exhibited by Con
servative men in tho South to oppose
tho revolutionary method on the part
of Northern Democrats, as shown
first In their refusal to oppose the con
summation of the electoral count, mid
more lately In the expression of sen
timent in disapprobation of the per
sonal attack on the President's title,
is received an a promising omen, and
the Republicans of Ohio cordially
greet such citizens of the South as ad
here in good faith to the terms on
which the issues of the war were set
tled, including the constitutional
amendments guaranteeing equal civil
and political righto, free speech, a free
press, an untrammeled ballot to all
citizens. Upon these conditions
alone can sectional strife be allayed,
and sectional lines, which now alien
ate in a great measure the South from
tho North, be obliterated.
The resolutions recognize in Presi
dent Hayes the highest integrity and
patriotism, and a sincere effort to pro
mote political harmony, but his pol
icies are not Indorsed.
Our next legislature should be
pledged to either restore the old pro
vision of our code, which reads :
"Tho punishment of any person or
persons convicted of the crime of mur
dor, shall be death or imprisonment
In the penitentiary for life, and the
jur3' trying the case shall fix the peu
nity," or enact some other good pro
visions that ban and will be enforced.

thejury to determine, who have heard
all the testimon3r and arguments with
deliberating, to say whether sufliciont

the measure to be a good one, as the

William Cuileu Bryant, tho great
est of American poets, died on the
morning of the 12th lust, at his resi
dence in New York City.- William
Culleh Bryant, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean, was a man of whora all Amer
icana have been justly proud, and one
whom the present age Can well ailbrd
(o send down to the future a3 an hon
ored und representative poet. Like
jPope, Bryant "lisped in Jiurubers,"
and wrote verses at the age of 20. A t
tho age of 19 Lord Byron published
his "Hours of Idleness," and in 1812
the first two cantos of "Childe Har
old." In thissarneyear William Cul
Ien Bryant, at the ago of 18, publish
ed "Thanatopsis," which still stands
as one of the most Impressive poems
in tho English language. He, like
Bj'ron, "awoke one morning and
found himself famous," aud the two
young poets, it may be said, began
their active oareers as poets and liter
ary workers in the same year. The
brilliant Englishman laid down his
life' over fifty years ago". The young
American, who made his mark in lit
eraturecotemporaneously with Byron
was with us but yesterday; and the
nation that was so enthusiastic over
tho young poet of 1812, having lived,
as it were, in close converse with him
for three score 3Tears, and having felt
the influence of his vigorous manhood
and serene old age, remembers him
and honors him as few poets of any
age or country have been remembered
aud honored by the people among
whom the' lived.
Mr. Bryant was born in November,
1794, and looking back to this date the
people have tho record of 84 'ears of
pure life, and nearly as man' years
of vigorous work, for Mr. Bryant's in
fluence for good commenced when he
wrote his first bo'ish poems. In 1826
he became connected with the New
York Evening' Post, aud the people
have had from him over fifty yeirs"
conscientious work as a newspaper
man. Both In his poems and in hid
prose writings there has been great
purity as to style and substance, a wise
tolerance, and a broad bympathy with
iiis kind. His poems havo had the
widest possible circulation1, and their
oharacter has been such as to make
them attractive at buce to tho 'oung
and old. When he wrote of the
"Death of the Flowers"
TI10 t,outh vind searches iqr tho flowers
whoso frricranco liito lie liore,
And slchs to fiud them lu tho wood add by
the Sstrcam 110 more
the words caught the ear of every boy
aud girl, as well as every man aud
woman. Even that ma3ter-pfece of
somber contemplative Imagination,
"Thanatopsis," has an irresistible
charm for tho young. Tehy may not
understand it, but it charms them all
the same. So with tho "Forest
Hymns.'' Every boy catches the
spirit of those beautiful reveries, and
it rules him until he loves tho groves
that "were God's first temples," and
all tho associations that; cling about
them.
In all that Mr. Bryant has written
there i3 neither an impuro word nor
an impure thought. Delicate In fan
cy aud elevated ill thought, his po
ems have encouraged the growth of
a wholesome religioussentimeut with
out suggesting sectarian differences or
coutiibuting to sectarian bitterness.
In giving him rank as a poet aud in
estimating tho worth of his poetical
writings, the judgment of the people
is as good as that of the critics ; for
all are readers of Bryant, and all bear
witness to tho impress that hi3 strong
nature has left upon the people of his
country. An English critic, writing
of Mr. Bryant, expresses his opinion
that tho cast of his mind, as a poet,
was characterized by a narrow great
ness. "HeBtatids on a high level,
but the space he covers Is limited; he
has no touch of humor, aud only the
distant pathos of prevailing melan
choly. Master of his position, where
ho is at home, in the woods, he loses
his inspiration when he draws near
his own cities." Conceding this re
mark to bejust.au important fact pre
sents itself to modify the whole scope
of the criliolsm. Men, women, and
ohlldren have found in tho poems of
Mr. Br3'antasentimentto make them
courageous and hopeful, a religion to
make them cheerful. He has possi
bly "covered a limited space,' but he
has reached all ages and classes. He
had listeners ever'where, and he
made all who listened, better.
But Mr. Bryant's work as a poet
represents only one side of the man.
For fifty years, as he said himself, he
"scrawled strange words with the bar
barous pen," as tho editor of ouo of
the most influential daily papers in
tho country. This ever'-day work
In politics and business mdy have
caused him to do less work as a poet
than ho woiild havo done under any
other couditions and circumstances,
but it increased Ills opportunities as a
molder of public opitiion. He made
tho words Evening Post the Bynonym
for wise conversation aud temperate
action in this oountry of politloal ex
tremes, aud earned the respect of his
most bitter opponents.
Mr. Bryant, taking high rank as a
poet, standing, it may be said, almost
without a rival in his special depart
ment was at the eanio time a success
ful editor and a wiso politician. He
lays down his life, leaving to the peo
ple the rich results of his many ears
of pure and earnest dovotlou. To
slightly paraphrase the words of his
first great poem, he
So lived that whoii the summons came to
Join
Tho Innumerable caravan which moves
To that mysterious realm, where eacli shall
take
His chamber In thesllent hulls of dcatli
Ho went, not like tho quarry t-lave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but, hu&talnedud
soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approached his
gravo
Like one who wraps tho drapery of his
couch
About him. and lies dow to pleasrlnt dreams.
