THE INAUGURAL.
The inaugural of Geu Grnnt, delivered
on taking tho oath of office ns President
of tho United States, Till be read w.rh
pleasure by all who confidently looked to
hi in as the vindidator and supporter ot the
great principles of the party which elected
him to his proscut position. lie starts out
boldly by saying that lie did not seek tho
Presidential office, which is the truth. The
President next alludes to the necessity of
collecting the revenues and harvesting the
publio resources, declaring in the same ron.
nection thut ho will not admit any but
competent and honest men iu the public
service. If he succeeds iu this, he need
do no more to render his countiy immense
service ; and if he rids the revenue service
of the thieves who sre now fattening on it,
and declines to appoint men as bad in their
stead, be will not have Glicd half his first
term until the reduction of our debt and
taxation will astonish the world. For the
payment of that debt the President pledges
himself, emphatically declaring that every
dollar of it must be met. The ease of the
Indian tribes is discussed iu a manner
which will result in legislation ultimately
to admit , them all to citizenship of the
United States.
Of suffrage he speaks as follows :
.The question of suffrage is one which is
likely to agitate the public attention so long
as a portion of the citizens of the nation arc
excluded from its privileges in .my State
It seems to me very desirable that this
question should bo settled now, and I en
tertain the hope and express the desire it
may be by the ratification of the fiiiecntli
article of the amendment to the Constitu
tion. In couelu.-ion, I atk patient forbearance,
one towards another throughout the. land,
and determined effort on the par' of every
citizen to do bis share towards ei nieiiting a
happy union, and I usk the prayers of the
nation to Almighty God in behalf of thi.s

Senator Morion, then handed the oGicial
notification to Gen, Grunt, of which the
following, is a copy :
Re it known that the Senate and House
ot Representatives ot the United States of
America, being assembled at the Capitol iu
the City of Washington, on the second
Wednesday, being the 10th day of Febru.
nry, in the year of our Lord 18G9, the
underwritten President of the Senate, did,
io presence of the Senate and House of
Representatives, open all the certihcates,
and count all the votes of the electors foi a
President aud Vice President, by which
it appears that Ulysses S. Grant was duly
elected, agreeably to the Constitution,
President of the United States, for four
years, commencing on the 4th day of
March 18C9.
Id witness whereof I have hereunto set
my hand, sod affixed the seal of the
Senate, this 10th day of February, IS GO.
li. F. WADE, President yro irm.
of the Senate
Gen. Grant, on receivieg this certificate
made the following response, ipeakiug very
deliberately ind with evident embarrass
ment :
REPLY OF GEN. GRANT.
I can promise the Committee that it
will be my endeavor to call around me as
assistants, such men ouly as I think will
carry out the principles which you have
said the country desires to see successful 1
economy, retrenchment, faithful collection of
the revenuo nnjl payment of the public debt.
It I should fail in my Cist choice, I shall
uot at any time hesitate to make a second
or even a third trial, with tho concurrence
of tho Senate, who have the eoiifirini.ig
power, and should Just as soon remove one
of my own appointees ns tho appointee of
my predecessor. It would make uo d;ffor.
ence.
Thcro is one matter ihat I might prop
erly speak of here, and that, is the selection
of a Cabinet. 1 have always felt that it
would be rather indelicate to announce or
even to consult with the gentlemen whom
I thought of inviting to-positions in. my
Cabinet, before the official declaration ol
the election w3 made, Althotmh I pro
surned that there- was no doubt about what
that declaration would be, but after con
sideration I have come to tho conclusion
that there is not a man in tho country who
could be invited to a placo in tho Cabinet
without friends of some other gentleman
niaking an e ffort to sewiire the position ;
not that there would bo any objection to
the party named, but that there would bo
oth eis whom they had set their hearts upon
having iu the place, lean tell that from
the great number of requests which come
to me, in writing and otherwise, from this
particular person or that one, from diffier
ent sets and delegations. Il announced iu
advance efforts would be made to change
my determination, and therefore I have
come to the conclusion not to announce
who I am going to invite to seats in the
Cabinet until I send iu their names tothe
Senate for confirmation. Iff say anything
to them abont it, it will certainly not be
more than two or three days, previous to
sending in their names. 1 think it well to
make a public decoration of this to the
Committee, so that my iutentious may be
kuowu."
A Little Peak. In the olden time
before Maine laws were invented, Wing
kept the hotel at Middle Granville, and
from his well stocked bar furnished ae
comiiiodatioiis lor man and beast, lie was
a good landlord, but terribly deaf. Fish
the village painter, was afflicted iu the
same way.
One i'ay they were sitting by themselves
in tho bar room. Whig was behind the
UoiV,;!l wailing for the next customer,
while Fish was lounging before tho fire,
with ii thirsty look, easting sheep's eyes
occasionally at Wing's decanters, and wish
ing devoutedly that some one would come
iu aud tieut.
A traveler from the south, on his way to
Uraudon stepped in to inquire the diss
tai:ee. Going up to old Wing he said :
' Can you tell me, sir. tow far it is to
Uruudou '! "
" Hrandy,-' says the ready landlord,
jumping up. ' Yes, sir, I baVe some,"
at the same time hauding down the de
canter of the liquid
' You misunderstood me," says the
stranger; " I asked you how far it was to
H.andon."
- They call lit pretty aood brandy, says
",p " ?ou ,a'ie 8gl" sugar with
it ? " reaching out, as be spuke, lor the
howl and toddy stick.
The despairing traveler, hoping for a
proper answer, now turned to Fish.
' The landlord," said he," seems to be
dr.f ; will you tell me bow lar it is to
ilrandon ? "
" Thank vou." said Fish ; " T .Im.'r
cure if I do take a drink with you I "
iuc stranger treated and fled.

the iullowing Iciiniilul paragraph on the
closing night of the week. Thcic is 3
volume ol truth iu it.
Saturday night makes the people human,
ets iheir hearts to beutiiu- softie
used io do before the world turned them
into war drums and jarred them to pieces
with tattoos. The ledger closes with a
clash ; the iroa deor vaults come to with a
bang; up go the shutters with a will;
click guts the key iu the lock. It is Satur
day night, and business breathes fiec again.
Homeward ho I The doer that has btcn
ajar all week gently closes behind him;
the world is thut out. Shut out ? Shut
in, then rather. Here are his treasures
after all aud uot to tho vault, and not iu
the book -wive the old family liible and
not in the bauk.
May be you are a bachelor, frosty and
forty. Then poor fellow ! Saturday
night is nothing to you, just as vou are
nothing to nobody. Get u wife, bfue eyed
or black eyed, but above all true eyed ;
get a little home, no matter how little, and
a little sola, just to hold two or two and a
half, and thu get the two or two and a
half in it of a Saturday night, and then
read this paragraph by the light of courage.
The printers who foimerly stuck typs at
the side of Horace Greeley have died out
of the office, aud Horace himself, though
a practical printer, rarely visits the com.
posing room. The last time the writer saw
him ut work in the composing room was at
threo o'clock iu the morning following
President Lincoln's election, when ho ran
his eye over the type of the New York
election table on the editorial page, and
suddenly cried out : " Here, Sum, bring
me a bodkin ; Rome d d fuol has spelled
Allegauy with au " h." And though the
pressmen were impatiently clauging the
bolls for the forx.s. Horace deliberately
drew a jack knife from Lis pocket and dug
" h " out ot Allegany before he would
allow the forms to go down.

To Young Men.
To the lackadasical youth with an inner
consciousness of fitness for a " great life
mission' we particular commend the fol
lowing sensible advice :
" It is easier to be a good business man
than a poor one. Half the energy dis
played in keeping ahead, that is required
to catch up when behind, will save 'credit,
give more time to business, and add to the
proGts and reputation of your word. Honor
your engagements. If you promise to meet
a man, or do a certain thing at a certain
moment, bo ready ut the appointed time.
If you have work to do, do it at oucc,
cheerlully, and therefore mora speedily
and correctly. If you go on business, at
tend to the matter promptly, r.nd then, as
promptly go about your own business. l)o
uot stop to tell stories in business hours.
If you have a place of business be found
there when wanted. No man can get rich
by sitting ntouud stores and saloons.
Never "fool" on "business matters. If
you huvo to labor for a living, remember
that one hour in the morning is better than
two at right. If you employ otheis. be on
liana' .to see that they attend to their duties,
and to direct with regularity, promptness,
liberality. Do not meddle with any busi
ness you know nothing of. Never buy any
article simply because the man who sells
it will take it out iu trade. Trade is
money. Time is money. A good busi
ness habit and reputation is always money
Make your place of business pleasant "and
attractive ; then stop there to wait ou eus.
tonic rs.
Never uso quick words or allow yourself
to make uncntlcmanly remarks to those
in your employ ; for to do so lessens their
respect for you and your influence over
them. Help yourself, and others will
help you. Be faithful over the interests
coulided to your keeping, and in all lto-hI
time your responsibilities will be increased
lo not be in too great haste to get rich.
Do not build until you have arranged und
laid a good inundation Do not as you
hope or work for success spend time in
idleness. If your time is your on, bus!,
iicsscd will suffer if you do. If it is given
to another for pay, it belongs to him und
you have no more ri.'lit to steal that, than
to steal money. Be obliging. S.rive to
avoid harsh words and personalities. Do
not kick every stone in the path ; more
miles can be made iu a day by g"ing
steadily on than by stopping to kick. Pay
as you go. A man of honor respects his
word as he docs his bond. Ask, but never
beg. Help others when you cau, but
never j;ive wl en you cannot afford to, sim
ply because it is lashionablo. Learn to
.-ay no. No necessity of snapping it out
dog fashion, but s:n it firmly aud respect
fully. Have bat few roiijiitantex, nud the
fewer the better. lTsc your own brains
rather than those of others. Learn to
think 'and act for yourself, lie honest.
Be vigilant. Keep ahead rather than be
hind the times. Young men, cut this out
and ii there is tolly iu the argument let us
know."
A Wor.D to Mont sits. Each mother
is a historian. She writes not the history
of empires or or nations on paper, but she
writes her own history on the imperishable
mind of her child. That tablet hnd that

mother shall meet again, ami lead wii.li
eternal joy or unutterable- grief, iu the
coming ages of eternity. The thought
should weigh on the iirud of every mother,
and render hc-r deeply circu'jspcct, prayer

The minds of children arc very suseepti.
ble and easily impressed. A word or look
or frown, may engrave an impression on the
miud of a child which no lapse of time can
elface or wash out. You walk along the
seashore when the tide is out, and you form
characters or write names or words iu
smooth white sand, which is spread out so
clear aud beautif ul at your feet, according
us your fancy may dictate ; but the return-ir-i;

of your child. The.e jou write impressions
for the everlasting good or ill of your chil
dren, which neither Hoods nor s'orms of
earth can wash out, nor death's fingers
erase, nor rhe slow-moving ages of eternity
obliterate. How careful, then, should each
mother be iu her treatment of her child !

It is.better to go to sleep on tho right

then the stomach is very much in the posi
tion of a bottle turned upside down, and
the contcuts ot it arc aided in passing out
by gravitation. If one gots to Bleep on the
left side, the operation of emptying the
stomach of its contents is uureliko draw
ing water from a well.
After going to sleep, let the body take
its own position. If you sleep on your
back, especially soon alter a hearty meal
the weight of the digestive organs and that
of the food resting on the greni vciu 'of the
body, near the backbone, compresses it,
and arrests the flow of .ho blood more or
less. Il the arrest is partial, tho sleep is
disturbed, and there is unpleasant dreams.
If the meal has been recent and hearty, the
arrest is more decided ; and tho various
