    TEE VOICE OF OHIO.
'Gov. COX'S 111111131111111 Address •-atotierate
and ratirtostc Views. -
The inaugural addres4 of Gov. Cox, o:
Ohio, is a scholarly production. moderate ia
its view§ and patriotic in all its tone. If the
views which run through the following,
animated all our public meni happy would
it be for the republic. We quote so much of
the message as is devoted to national affairs:
Congress and the President are now at
'work upon the details of complete restora
tion of civil government in the States lately
.rebellious, and we, in common with the
whole country, are watching their progress
with the most earnest hope that they 4115 V
speedily, agree upon a national policy which
shall thoroughly accord with the highest
interests of the whole land. Ido not regard
this a proper time to .discuss specific meas',
urea which are before our Federal legisla
tine and authorities, but all our public acts
insour State organisations, as well , as in our
national capacity, must be more or less
modifiedhy circumstances shaped by the
great war in which-we have been engaged,
aed it . seems necessary "therefore s as a pre
paration for every species of public duty,'
Ihatvre'ishouldlook with'special care atany
. aangerous tendencies the war may have
developed and recall the general, principles
which should guide our action' as servants
asp the people. '
It is in the excitement of a Ertritraggle
that the institutions of a country are in the
most danger of change,' and perhaps no
nation has - ever passed through suoh a con,
vulsion as ours .and 'then ,returned to the
principles of gOvemment and exact form or
constitution which it had before. The
maxim that, revolutions, Ad' not go backi
ward, taw seemeitto have even a wider eil.4
deeper significance than has - been popu-
larly given to it.,; The same lawof progres
sion which has . made „the convulsions of
monarchical governments tend toward the
development of, popular liberty, has in re
publics too often . led to adespotism of classes
or of factions, and thende by easy staras to
anarchy and utter' isruption. A victorious
majority, flushed with its triumph, nuda it
easy to forget the:rights of minorities; and it
remains for us to prove whether, in our day,
the old cry of "Wnoe to the conquered" may
be silenced by a truly republican determi
nation to administer the government for the
• real advantages of all—of the defeated rebels,
as well as the loyal victors.
The war was not waged by us, who' re
mained faithful to the Government, to sub
vert any of the principles of human liberty
upon which that Government was based,
but to confirm and establish them. The
one great; doctrine which has been settled
by the war is that the National Union can
not and shall not be destroyed by the action
of any of the States composing it: but its
continuance, its modification, or its dissolu
tion shall be determined by the whole people
acting as one nation under the forms of the
Federal Constitution. The one great social
change which has been determined by the
same event, is the abolition of slavery, the
existence of which was staked upon the
success of the rebellion, of which it was the
cause.
These things have been decided in the
dread court of last resort for peoples and
nations. By as much as the shock of armed
hosts is more grand than the intellectual
tilt of lawyers; as the God of battles is a
more awful judge than any earthly court;
by so much does the dignity of this contest
and the finality of this decision exceed that
of any human tribunal. If we have not
been right in pledging our lives and for
times to save our country, then the blood of
the myriads of heroes who have fallen,
rests with murderous guilt uponour souls,
and we should never consent that the
justification or condemnation of this great
people should rest, now or hereafter, with
any bench of judges, however learned, espe
cially when each judge must determine his
own cause, since he must have been for or
against the country in her struggle. There
are some things to which courts of law can
add no sanction, and an appeal to God
when it seizes the sword is one of them. We
may, when necessary, try individual
traitors, and the people of the United States
will appear as prosecutor, but not as de
fendant at the bar.
Being conqueror, the Government has the
undoubted nght to impose terms upon the
conquered, but in the statement of what
should limit and define these terms, diffi
culties arise. We are apt, indeed, to listen
with impatience to any limitation of our
control over those who are subject to ns.
The •pleasures of rulership and the joy
which is felt in the exercise of power have
alwaye appealed with peculiar force to the
frailties of human nature, and professed re
publicans have been as subject to their
temptation as other men. In a time like
this most of us feel the necessity of check
ing our impulses and passions, challenging
the motives and the consistency of our
actions, and of fastening oar attention, by
effort ofwill, upon principles of government
and of human rights which have been
axioms to us during the periodof the growth
of our institutions and of conflicts between
us and powerful foreign powers. However
unwelcome the task of-self-examination,we
owe it to ourselves to make it thorough and
searching. The ancient conqueror was
accompanied by a slave in his triumphal
car, who reminded him of his humanity
and his weakness; we must act as our own
'prompters to moderation and justice, and
remind ourselves of the rules which should
control our action, and of the dangerous
tendencies of our own nature. We need no
stimulus to anything which runs with the
whole current of popular impulses and
•feeling; such things will take care of
themselves, but no duty can be more im
portant than of stopping occasionally to
weigh well what seems to cross our desires
or to question the direction of our progress.
We have the right and are induty bound to
insist upon sufficient guarantees for the fu
ture safety of the Union- ' but those guaran
tees must 13e such as shall mot be inconsist
ent with a republican government for those
who give as well as for those who receive
such security. -
Conquest does not rightfully give unlimited
sway over the persons and property of the
conquered and their rights may be dimin
ished no farther than is necessary for the
public safety. '
If it were proven that it would be impos
sible for us to live safely, as'sharers of a
common Governmen with the people of
any State or commoni our republican
ism might force us to co. sent to separation,
but could not justify us in holding them as
subjects; and this pro • e -ition is true with
out reference to race .r color.
Representation ot a privilege conferred
upon majorities, .nt it is most efficient for
good when it approaches most nearly to
giving voice in the Legislature to all mi
norties in proportion to their number.
Il lit is better and safer that a minority, how
ever hostile to us in principle, should be so
represented as to be openly heard and an
zwered, than that it should have the advan
tage of winning sympathy and gaining parti
sans by making issues upon the qhestion of
the right of representation instead of anon
the falsity of its obnoxious principles.
Military government is hills very essence
a,despotism, and any long continuance of it
ter the cessation of armed resistance is
contrary to, and a confession of the failure
of, republicanism.
These and many similar general maxims
of government are the intellectual diet upon
which every living , American has been
'bred, and of 'which we have been such
earnest propagandists that no one of us can
deny them without incurring' the contempt
of the civilized world. They are mere ab
stractions, it is , true, but we need to bear'
them in mind none the less carefully for
that. All rules are abstractions, whether
they be the formulae for solving the problerkis
of government or of-other soleness. We re
call t.O teat au; verk, and we
reckon ourselves to have made good; pro
gress in proportion to the faithfulness with
which we - have adhered 'to them.
In the heat 'of our just wrath against
those who would have swept republi
canism from the continent, had they been
successful, we are ,in L danger of forgetting
principles to which we owe allegiance; and
therefore we should Inot excuse ourselves
from the thankless task of reminding leach
other of them. To' follow these rules and
yet provide that the national safety be not
endangered, to determine who of the late
enemies of the Government are without the
pale of clemency, and yet to ektend am
nesty to the other millions of those who
were rebels, to restore political privileges to
those who were formerly masters, and yet
Protect the freedot .of those who were
formerly slaves—su h is the difficult and
delicate work before the Executive and
Legislature of the Nation, and they may
rightly claim of us all such appreciation of
their task as shall make us most kited and
charitable judges of their diffarencee. from
favorite measures of our own. We have,
indeed, reason to be devoutly thankful that
the work has fallen upon men in whose
patriotism and wisdom we have so great
cause for confidence,) and that the progress
they have already •Imade promises a con
clusion which shall be reasonably
speedy and generally satisfactory to the
country.
Death of Prefessor napes.
. ': [ l:rom to 110's N. Y. herald.]
Forsame years past the farat of Professor
James J. Mapes, Alex Newark, N. J., has
been,krioiviras - the "garden spot" of the
State, and every agrictilturist of any pre
tentious knows ita history. In .1848 it was
about the . most sterile, barren and un
promising piece of ground that could have
been found among the sand plains and hills
of: the State; but of late years it had become
highly fertalized 2 tMder • the cultivation' of
Professor Mapes, and at this time is said to
annually , realize an income of about $20,000.
Our readers will regret to learn that this
model farmer, who created this model farm,
is dead.: The story of, his experiment - is
perhaps better "known than that of his life,
which is not the lesamteresting.
Professor Mapes Was ',born in New York,
May 26 1806. In very early youth he de
veloped a mind of great activity, research
and invention. The early developments of
his. intellect would have naturally led one
to suppose that in after life he would have
proved, not a farmer, but a soldier; for it is
stated of him that when only seventeen
years of age, he delivered a full course of
lectures in this city On "Military Tactics,"
varying the interesting exercises on the
closing night by the exhibition and expla
nation of a model machine of his own inven
tion, illustrating with figures, dc., the
advance of Napolein on Moscow and the
subsequent retreat] This model is repre
sented to have been a curious machine, but
it is not known that its principle was ever '
applied to any useful purpose.
This invention and these ideas were the
crude ones of youth. He began soon after to
apply his inventive faculties to more useful
subjects, and became interested in the refining
of sugar,
a business in which, after being
engaged for six yeats, he failed financially.
This life had led tc the close study of die
f mistry, and he now divided his attention
between this study and that of natural his
tory. He had some knowledge of civil en
gineering, and is said to have been the tirst
:,
person who ever opened an of fi ce in this
city as a consulting ngineer. On the profits
of this profession b 4
lived for nearly twelve
years, devoting his'mire time to his studies.
His success as a stildent of natural history
was very great, and some of his articles at
tracting attention he was made a permanent
member of the New York Lyceum, and
honorary member o' the Scientific Institute
of Brussels, Royal Society of St. Peters
burg and Geographical Society of Paris,
while one of our State - Universities con
ferred on him the degree of LL. D. He
had begun as early as 1842 to attract
some attention as a chemist (particularly by
his analysis in a report to the State Senate
of beer and wines, but still more so by his
able papers on scientific subjects published
in the American RePository of Arts, Sciencei
an'd Manufactures, of which he was subse
quently made the editor), when he for a time
injured his reputation by publishing a work
on agriculture, which was so full of what
were regarded as wild and visionary
schemes of a disordered mind that he every
where met with derision, even from the
American Institute, before which he had
lectured. Professor Mapes's reputation
never entirely recovered from these attacks,
though it was soon after found that he and
Dr. Liebig, the great German authority on
similar subjects, agreed with singular ex
actness in their philosophy regarding the
"progression of primaries" and other
theories. His succe s as a farmer had, how
ever, much more tot do with the re-establish
ment of his character as a sound chemist
than the circumstan ce of the correspondence
df his ideas with ! those of the German
chemist.
As a farmer Pro fessor Mapes has given
hundreds of useful discoveries to the world,
and not a few important inventions. The
sub-soil plough, rotary digger and spade,
now in such common use,are his inventions
—while his advice and experience in regard
to chemical manures are accepted as au
thority all over the , country.
Shortly after his removal to Newark Pro
fessor Mapes organized the Frankiin Insti
tute of that city, ar was its first lecturer.
As early as 1844 e was President of the
Mechanics' Institute of this city, and has
always taken a prominent part in similar
institutions for the diffusion of knowledge.
He was fora long time a Professor of Chem -
istiy and Agriculture in the American In
stitute of this city, and at one time was the
joint editor of the American Farmer, a
paper published inißoston. At the time of
his death he was the editor and proprietor
of the Working Farmer, •an agricultural
journal published in this city. Socially
Professor Mapes was highly interesting and
popular. He possessed an exhaustless fun,l
of anecdote. and indident, and had consider
able reputation as!a wit. He was, we be •
have, a member in full communion with
the spiritual fraternity. He leaves a widow,
three daughters and a son. Mrs. M. E.
Dodge, well knowa as a popular authores
and contributor to! Harper' 8, the Oorithil 1
Magazine, and other publications, is hi-i
1 daughter.
