Ilia ccruinotiics nttcndiug the inauguration

no Imposing ; ncvif beforu, savu Vhcu thu
prnnd array was reviewed in 1805, has
such tt procession swept through Tenuyl
vanht avenue as that which on Tuesdny, ac
companied President Grant to the Capitol.
For a republican government, tho first rule
of which is supposed to be simplicity and
absence of vain show, perhaps the demon
titration wtts too excessive, butltmusi, bo
borne in mind that, with the exception of
;i small portion of the military, President
G rant's escort was a volunteer escort,
formed of military aud civic organizations
from all parts of tho coutvtry, the .numbers
of which name to 'Washington of their own
freo will, to do honor 'to a man in whom
they had trust and confidence. Regarded
in this light, H was cry "meet that this
thiua should be done" that a popular
nvatiou should 'bo tendered to a President
elected by a majority unparalleled in the
history enhe nation ; and the escort, forty
ihousaT.t! strong, which nccompanied
Grant yesterday to the Capitol, was but a
lit expression of the regard felt for him by
tho people of the United States.
W ii at Constitutes Gambling. Chief
Justice Thompson, iu a recent case, gave
his opinion of gambling in the following
words : "Anything which induces men to
risk their money and property without any
other hope of return than to get for nolhiug
any given amount from another, is gamb
ling, and demoralizing to the community,
no matter by what name it may be called.
It is the same, whether tlio promiHe be to
p ty on tho color of a card or tho fleetness
o" a horse, aud the aamo numerals indi
cate how much is lost or won iu cither
case, and the losing party has received
just as much for the money parted with in
one case as the other, viz: nothing nt all.
The lucky winner is of course the gainer,
and he wiil contiuuo so until fickle fortuue,
in duo time, rnake3 him feel the woes he
has inflicted on other All gaming is im
moral. I apprehend that the losses inci
dent to the practice disclosed within the
past five years, have contributed more to
the failures and embezzlements of public j
officers, clerka, agents and others acting in
fiduiciary relations, public and private,
than any other known, or perhaps all other
causes; and the worst of it is, that iu the
train of evils thero is a vast amount of mis
ery aud suffering by.peraons entirely guilt
less of any participation in the cause of it.
The advantages of publishing suits of
real estate and personal property in the lo
cal newspaper in nddition to liacdbiihi, is
clearly set forth iu the following article
from the Lexvisbunj Chronicle :
"Would it not be well for those who in
tend having public sales to advertise, tho
leading articles iu the local newspapers, in
addition to having bills printed 'i Bills are
all right, and quite advantageous ; but ad
vertising iu a newspaper, we. think, has ad
ditional advantages. Hills are posted iu
public places where few, comparatively,
see thtro, and the female portion of the
community have little or no opportunity
to learn what articles are to be sold, .'ews
parcrs go into peoples' houses, where till
have a clmnce at them. Very few persons
have more than fifty bills printed. These
may be seen aud read by live times that
number. All advertisements (say in this
paper) get 12U0 impressions, and is
Been by at least five times that number, or
6,000. Theadvantnpes ofndvertUing sales,
we thiil'i, is sufficiently clear, without urg
ing tho matter."
The Modoc Iudiiiu Trouble.
San Francisco, March 4. A courier
arrived at Yreka Inst uight from the fruut.
lie says that on tho arrival of 3udge Rose
borough and Elijah Steele at headquarters,
n proposition for thu settlement of the
Midoo troubles was submitted, and on
Friday, Steele, with an interpreter and
others, went to Captain Jack's camp,
where he remained all night. Tho pro
position was made that the Modocs should
Murrender as prisoners of war and be re
moved to some reservation outside of Ore
gon, probably Arizona, and be provided
for by the government. To this the In
ilians nil agreed, and eight of Captain
Jack's braves uecompanieil Steele to Fair
child's rniuhe, to confer with Geueral Can
ity and the Commissioners, where they were
on Sunday evouing.
When the courier left, Captain Jack was
sick, and it would therefore require several
days to complete the treaty, when it will
havo to be approved by the authorities ut
Washington.
Captain Jack claiins that his people are
not to blame for killing settlers, us the
citizens commenced by killing one of his
squaws and children.
The feeling here is that the murderers of
the settlers should be punished iuslead of
complete amnesty being granted, as pro
posed D3' the Commissioners.
The speech 'of Captain Jack to Mr. Steel
is a reiteration of the Modoc chiefs former
statement of his view s and wishes. Ho
denies that ho commenced the war, or that
he desires to continue the conllict, aud says
he always lived iu peace, and wanted to do
no, until the troop sntninem-cd operations
against hiin. Hi declined to go to Canby's
cimpto-d.iy.
(Steele goes back to the lava beds to try
to induce Captain Jack and Sehouches to
come out and conclude the terms of the
proposed treaty.
The people of Oregon were not inforrund
of the action of the pence commis-ioners
until this morninz, and it is not kivnvn
what course the civil' authorities of that
Htalu will pursue with reference to the in
dictments of Modocs for the murder of
their people.
A despatch from Jacksonville, Oregon,
says thu people in that part of tho State are
not willing to accept any terms with the
Modocs which do uot provide for the sur
render to the civil authorities of the In
dians indicted for murder.
Tho Peace Commission met yesterday,
nnd considered diU'eieut propositions for

HIS SECOND INAUGURATION TI1B PA
RADB AND TUB TEOPLE THE IKAU
QUllAL ADDREBH, ETC.
Washington, March 4, 1873.
, Tho second inauguration of President
Grant took place to-day, and as was anti
cipated, proved an evect of more than
usual interest. Tho weather was very
cold, in fact one of the coldest days of the
season. Notwithstanding this, the thor
oughfares were crowded at an enrly hour,
and continued so throughout the day. The
decorations along the avenue could not be
excelled, although the wind played sad ha
voc with many uo specimens. More
than twenty arches of flags and bunting
spanned tho avtnue and various streets
through which tho procession passed. The
crowd along the avenue who witnessed the
procession, numbered fully a hundred
thousaud, and never has "Washington seeu
such a throug before. The hotels wore
filled to overflowing, and last night many
were compelled to leave the city to seek
lodgings. Tho city was filled with pick
pockets from Baltimore, Philadelphia, nud
New York, aud must hnvo dono a thriv
ing business, judging from the numerous
complaints mailo at police head quarters.
The precession formed at 10 o'clock, and
at once took up tho line of march, in ac
cordance with the programme. Tho line
halted to take up the President, President-'
elect, in accordance with previous arrange
ments, who for the occasion was seated in
an open barouche, drawn by four beauli
f eft ioi see. This occupied only a few mo
ments, and then tho line moved on. The
sight was truly inspiring. Tho long line
ot human beings in their dresses of vari
ous colors, the clashing of swords, the
glistening of rifles, tho prancing of steeds
all seemed to enthuse the looker on.
On reaching the platform tho President
elect took the seat provided for him in frout
of the centre, Vice President Colfax, and
Sergeant at Arms having the ceremonies
in llinrgu sitting on Lis right, and Chief
Justice Chase on .his loft. Near General
Grant, on 'the platform, sat Sirs. Grant,
accompanied by several of their children,
the President's brother Orville, M:s.
Sharpo.nud several other relatives of the fa
mily. The appearance of General Graut on
the platform was greeted with cheers, aud
blasts of music from the bands of the mili
tary and civic organizations participating
in the ceremonies. The noise of tho greet
ing was hushed as the President-elect, and
Chief Justice simultaneously arose, and the
latter commeuced to recite the formula of
tho President's oath of office which Gen.
Graut took with head uncovered, nnd re
sumed his seat for a few moments, while
the booming of cannon, the ringing of bells,
and the shouts of the vast coucouise, burst
forth with deafening effect, and cheer alter
cheer went up with a volume.
After partial quiet had been restored, the
President arose, aud in a voice not heard
except by persons on or ucuv the platform,
he proceeded to read his
SECOND INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
Fkixow-citizens: Under Providence I have
been called u second time to act us Executive
over this great nation. Il bus been my endeavor
in the pnsl to maintain nil the laws, ami so fur
as lny in my power, to net for the best interests
of the whole people. My best efforts will be
uiven In the tame direction in the future, aided,
i trust, tiy my lour yenrs' experience :n the office
When my lirH term of the office of Chief Ex
ecutive begun the country bud uot recovered from
the elici ts of u great iulcrual revolution, mi J
three of the former flutes of the Union had not
been restored to tb'.'ir Federal rehitious. It seem
ed to me wise thut no new question should be
raised so long tie that condition of nil. lire existed.
Thcrclore, the part lour years, so fur us I could
control events, have been consumed in the ef
fort to rcFtorc harmony, public credit, commerce
nnd nil the arts of pence and progress. It is my
firm convict Inn that the civilted World is tend
ing towurrts republicanism, or government by tho
people tluuiu'ij ll.eir chosen representatives, nnd
that our uwn.gieut Republic is destined to be the
guUl'isgsuiruc id! o. Iters. Under our Republic
wc support an army less than that of any Euro-,
pe.iu power of any standing, nud n navy leisj
than I list of either of nt least tive of them.
There could be no extension of territory on
this ronliucut which would cull for an increase
of this force, but rather might such cxtcuslou
enable us to diminish it.
The theory of Government changes with the
general progress. Now that lite telegraph is
made uvuiluble for communicating thought, to
gether with rapid transit by steam, nil parts of
a continent ur made contiguous fornll purposes
of govcrumeut, and communication between the
extreme limits of the cnuutry made easier than
it was throughout the old thirteen States ut lUu
bcuiuning of our national existence.
The elfecls of the lulu civil strife have been to
free the slave and make him a citizen. He Is
uot possessed of the civil rinhts which citizen
ship should carry with it. This U wrong, nnd
should be corrected.
To this correction I stand committed so far as
Exu.utivc iuaucuee.eau avail. Social equulityl
uoi a euojeci in oe legislated upon, nor shall 1
ask that anything he done to advance the social
status of the colored man except to give liim u
fair chnuee to dcvrlopwh.it there is good in him.
Give him access to schools, aud when he travels
let him feel assured that Ills conduct will regu
late tlie treatment and fare he will receive. The
ttales lately at war sltli thu General Govern
ment are now happily rehabilitated, and no Kx
ceutive control is exercised in any one t.f them
that would not t,e t x"relfcd in any other tjtute
under IlV c p'.rcniustances.
In tho lirst year of the past Adinlulctrution,
the proposition camu up for 'he admission of
Santo Doartugo as a tenitoryof th'i Vuion. It
was not afiuc.Mioi, of myseeking, hut was a pro
position from the people of Cumo Ioiniugo, and
which 1 enlcrtniunl. I believe now, us I did
then, th at it was for the hrst Interests of this
country, lorthe people of Santo Domingo, and
all concerned, tl:at the pioposttion should be re
ceived favorably. It was, however, rejected con
stiiutionaliy, and therefuie the subject was uever
brought up again bv me.
In future, while i hoi 1 my prtsent oltlcc, the
subject of acquisition ot territory must have the
Mlpl'Ort of the people h. fure J will recommend
any proposiiiou lookii; to such acquisition.
I say here, botvever, I hut I do not
sharu in the apprehension held by inuuy as to
the danger of governments becoming weakened
and dcrtroyed I y reason of their extension of
territory.
f.'cinniercn, education and rapid transit of
thought and matter ty telegraph and steam have
dialed nil tins, r.athei iio l helievo that our
Great Mukcr is preparing the world in Ills own
good time to become oue cation, speaking oue
language, aud when armies nud navies will be
no longer required.
My efforts in the future will be directed to the
restoration of good feeling between th did'erent
sections of our common country, to the restora
tion of our cuneocy to a fixed value as compared
with the world's standard of value golu aud,
If possible, to a pur with it; to the construction
of cheap routes ol transit throughout the land, to
the end that tho products of all sections may find
a market and leave u living remuneration to the
protlucori to the maintenance of friendly rela
tions with ll our neighbors and with l be distant
nations) to the rs-esiablishmeul of our 90111
merc and share In the carrying trade upou the
ocean; to the encouragement of such manufac
turing Industries as can b ecouomieully pur
sued io this country, to tha end thut the e.:parts
of home products and Industries may pay for oar
Imports, the only surs way of rtuink.g Io and
permanently inauiiuiuintf a specie basis; to tuu
eltvatios ij lubor, and by a huuiune course to
tHiii.' the arxnn.'uus of fc.o count ly under the le
sign icQUeoces 1 education aud civilization. Il
Is either tbU )r s'V o( sviraitnstlou. , Vsrs
of extermination, snpnRod In by peoplo pann
ing commerce, nnd nil Industrial pursuits, are
expensive ecn Against the weakest people, and
are demoralising and wicked. Our superiority
of strength nnd advantages of civilization should
make ns lenient towards the Indian. The wrongs
Irendy Inuicted upon him should be taken into
account, nnd tha balance placed to his credit.
The moral view of the question should be con
sidered, and the question asked, Cannot the In
dian bo made a sefnl nnd productive member
of society by proper teaching and treatment? If
tne euon is macio in good fnltn we will stand
better before the civilized rations of the earth
nndonrown consciences for hnvlng made it.
All these things n re not to be accomplished bv
any one Individual, but they will receive my sup
port ana suca recommendations 10 congress ns
will, in tnv ludgmont. best serve to enrrv them
Into effect. 1 I beg your support aud encourage
ment. I: has been and Is my earnest desire to correct
abuses that have grown up in the civil service of
the conntry. To seenre this reformation rules
regulating methods of appointment and promo
tion were established nnd have been tried. My
efforts for such reformation shall be continued
to the beet of my judgment. The spirit et tho
rules adopted will be malntuioca.
I acknowledge before this assembly, K'preent
tng, as It docs, every soctlon of onr country, the
obligation I nm under tomyceuntrymen for tho
great honor they have conferred on mo by return
ing me to the highest olllce within their gift, and
the further obligation resting on me to render to
them the best services within my power.
This I promise, looking forward witluhe great
est anxiety to the day w hen I shnll be released
from responsibilities that nt times are nlmoet
overwhelming, and from which I hnvo scarcely
had n respite since tho oventlul tiring upon f ort
Bumpier In April, 1SC1. to the present day. My
services were then tendered aud accepted under
the Hist cull for troops growing out of thntereut.
I did not nsk for place or position, nnd was en
tirely without Influence or the acquaintance of
persons of influence, but was resolved to perform
my part in s struggle threatening tho Very exis
tence of the nation, a conscientious duty, with
out asking promotion or command, and without
a revengeful feeling towards any section or In
dividual. Notwithstanding this, throughout thf war, and
from niv candidacy for my present oftlts In 1868
to tho close of the last Presidential campaign. I
have been tho subject of abuse nnd (lander
scarcely over equaled In political history, which
to-day I feel that I can ull'ord to disregard iu
view of your verdict, w hich I gratefully accept
as my vindication.
At the conclusion of the address, the
President was warmly congratulated by
his friends, and soon after left in his car
riage for the White House, escorted by the
processiou, which, having formed and ta
ken up its line of march, most of the out
side crowd followed to their homes, while
tho Senate returned to its chamber, and
the inauguration ceremonies at the Capitol
were concluded.
THE INAUGURATION BALL.
The inauguration ball was largely attend
ed. The dancing was interrupted nt half
past 11 by tho entrance of the President,
who was escorted by Gov. Cooke, and A.
R. Shepard, followed by Vice President
Wilson. The Japanese Minister was pre
sent, accompanied by a lady iu full Japa
nese costume. The West Point and An
napolis Cadets were present as iuvitsd
guests.
The grand banquet was on a magnificent
scale, uud proved satisfactory to everybody,
tho only detraction being the iusufllcient
arrangements made for warming tho hall
which caused many of the ladies to wear
their winter wrappings duriug the evening.
EXTEX-SEN OT THE AIC9IY.
SPEECH OF SENATOR. CAMERON.
When the appropriation for the support
of the army was under consideration iu
the United States Senate, on the 25lh ult.,
Mr. Casserly, of California, compared tlie
cost of maintaining our army v. ith that of
maintaining the army of Great Britain,
concluding his remarks as. follows:
I think! observed this morning iu the
newspapers a telegraphic dispatch that tho
estimates lor the liritwh nrmv for the pres
ent year were about 5'70,0UO,O00 gold. That
is fourteen million .pounds sterling; nnd
out of that they support a regular line of
more than one hundred and twenty-five
thousand meu, besides a largo number of
militia and yeomanry, the whole of those
additional forces equuliug one hundred and
eighty thousand men; so that our army
costs us say S 2S.OO0,0U0 iu gold for less than
thirty thousand men, and their army of
over three hundred thousand men costs
them about 870,000,000, gold. And yet wo
all know that tlie pay aud compensation
of the higher ollicer in ithe'Uritish army.
and in that I uieau to include colonels, is a
much larger ura than auy thing that wo
pav to our, higher ollicers.
Mr. Cameron It is true, as the Senator
from California snys, that our army is the
most ey.pensivo anny iu the world per
heed. Tho rc.iBon why that is so, in the
first place, is because our army is a smaller
one than that of other nations; aud, of
course, tho expense of a smaller body is
greater per head than that of a larger
as every one readily perceives. Besides
that, ull thu members of our army arc fellow-citizens.
When a man leaves his pur
suits as a private citizen at home aud en
ters our army, especially in time of war, ho
continues a citizen, and wo treat our army
belter than any nrmy in tho world.
This debate has brought to my mind an
incident that occurred at the time I hap
pened to be in Loudon in lfcO-', at the be
ginning of our war, at a time when almost
everybody abroad thought this country
miiKi succumb to the rebellion of the South.
I was invited to a breakfast, at which there
were fifteen or twenty gentlemen of high
position, men of title, and I believe all of
them members of Parliament, lluriug the
conversation at thu table an inquiry was
mmlu ua to Uie luos iif a soldier per year iu
the United States. They were trying to
conviucu me that we had 110 chance of pre
serving the Union intact. Tho wish was
father to the thought with all of them.
They thtught that this, tho lust great re
public, would bo destroyed because of its
own want ot stictigln to keep itself together.
1 said the cost of a soldier in the United
States was a thousand dollars a year, and
it nr.tonibhed everybody present. Then
my inquiry -was, "what doc it cost to feed
uud tiiiihe nud keep a soldier iu Great Bri
tain':"' The auswer was t'JOO. The dif
ference was immense. I was asked for the
reasons, and I gave the reason which 1
have now given, that hero every man hns
a common interest in the country, and it is
the interest of those of us who are not in
the at my, to feed and clothe those who go
into the army as we would bo fed aud
clothed ourselves; tlay ure our brothers,
our cousius, our relatives, our associates in
every way. Then I inquired about the
cost of a soldier in various countries. I do
not remember all of thutu, but seventy-five
dollars was stated to uu tho cost ot main
taining a soldier in Russia. The moineut
a inau became a soldier in any of those
countries, until the roc-tut war in Ger
many, he became u slave, aud ho was fed
and clothed aud used liko the ucgro slaves
of our owu country.
Mr, President, it is lwcauso of this dif
ference in the treatment and slandtug of a
soldier in our country that wo can always
provide an army .capable of prestrviug tin
liberties of .Ibis couulrv agitiusl all foes,
foruijia anU,doiueslie. They are part and
narcul of ourselves, aud they live as wu do.
Ko other soldiers ia the world ever got cof
fee or tea tr sugar or potatoes as a part ot'
their ratious. i remember myself, in thii
country, in tha wsrof lttl'J, when weconiei
our regulations from England, iur soldier)
got a pound of beef, a pound of bread, and
half a pint of vinegar as the whole ration.
They got two pairs of socks, no great coat,
no other covering except a cotton shirt,
with no under drawers, and a pair of
woolen pautalonns in the winter and a
woolen coat, aud light ones In the summer.
Then we copied from ' England; but
nines that time our government bas grown
in strength, and every man In the country
soon began to know his own rights and to
feel that he was a part of the government,
aud he would have compelled them, if his
rulers had hot given him what he wanted,
to clothe him as a man ought to be clothed
and as a brother ought to be clothed when
he Is defending his country. We give our
soldiers good rations, plenty to eat and to
wear; we not only provide his outside uni
form, but give hint undershirts, flannels,
drawers, and make other provisions which
Show our care for him.
Then look at our pension lint. Wo pay
830,000,000 a year to our disabled soldiers,
and the widows and orphans of those who
have given their-lives fof their country.
What other nation has thus cured for its
defenders? It is this policy which fills our
army in time of emergency.
Another advantage that we derive is
that the expenses of our army aro so great
that everybody is interesuxl In keeping
them down, and tho peopl's will tiut go to
war if they can help it. '

Pursuant to call,' the toekholders of tho
Northern Central Railroad held a meeting
to-day at noon nt Calvert Station, North
Calvert street, for rtte purpose of holding
its annual election for a IJoanl of Directors,
and to receive the report of the present
Board.
As the hour of noon approached there
was quite a largo gathering of solid men,
financially speaking, including many of the
most prominent business men, and also
financial gentlceien of Pennsylvania, who
are interested in the affairs of the Northern
Central Railroad.
At 12 o'clock precisely, Samuel M. Shoc-

J. D. Cameron, Esq.. of Che Hoard of Di
rectors, read tho annual .report, showing
the! condition of the nfln.it a of the. road, and
fconcltuling with the fallowing resolutions,
proposing that, in view of all the facts pre
sented, the Norl horn Central Road should
be permanently leased to the Pennsylvania
Railroad. The resolutions are as follows :
PROPOSITION TO LEA-tSK TUB ROAD.
licsokcil, That a committee be appoint
ed to negotiate with the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company for the permanent lease
of the Northern Central Railway, and its
brauch roads, to that 'Company, the same
to he based on an anuual rental on its cap
ital stock, and the payment of the interest
on all its obligations growing out of such
leases, aud indebtedness of every descrip

menl to bo subject to the confirmation of
tho stockholders at an adjourned meeting,
to be called on ten days' public notice.
llcfoheil, That when we adjourn, we ad
journ to meet at tlie call of tho foregoing
committee.
The reading of tho report and tho ac
companying resolutions attracted thu tar
nest attention of all present, who now
crowded tho directors' room until even
6tauding room become scarce, aud many
were obliged to catch what they could of
tho proceedings from positions iu the hall.
It was manifest from tho large attendance,
and the buzz of tho conversation, that tho
mee ting was one of no com 111 on importance.
Tho rumors that have been in circulation
for sumo weeks past of a movement look
ing to tho accomplishment of the proposed
leasing of tbo road to the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad Company, had prepared,
uo doubt, all who immediately who were
stockholders iu great interest ftr what the
directors had to recommend, but neverthe
less there was something very much like
excitement among some, as they leut au ea
ger car .to.ca toll the language of the repoit.
MOTION TO RECOMMIT.
As soon as tho reading of the report had
been finished. Mr. John Holland, of Phila
delphia, stepped forward and, with somo
indications of excitement, said he had a re
solution to oiler in reference to the report,
which ho proceeded to read, in effect, that
tho report of the Board of Directors be
printed for the information of the stock
holders, nnd that the said report be recom
mitted, with instructions to furnish certain
additional .information. '
Mr. Holland said ho was tho owucr of
000 shares of the company, and proceeded
to rend a long speech, embodying as one of
his references the entire report ol the Board
of Directors for the year 1S04, and theu
passing on to review somewhat sharply tho
subsequent management of the road.
Mr. Keuuedy asked to interrupt the gen
tleman to call attention to tho fact that the
.charter of the compnny required tho elec
tion for directors to take p'uuo between the
hours of 1 and 2 o'clock P. M., and that
unless tho election proceeded at onco it
could Dot take place at all.
It was suggested that the election should
go on whilst the geutleman was making his
argument on. his resolution. Mr. Holland
assented to this, aud proceeded, while tho
secretary presented tho ballet-box for the
receptiou of the vote of tho stockholders.

Letter from Philadelphia. '

Frimd Wilrtrti-
Business preventing my going to Wash
ington to-day, and having no axo to grind,
no desire to go and not being much of an
admirer of jams, especially in cold, wet
weather, I will devote the day, or portion
thereof, tu dropping yon a line. Ouce
more the whirlngig of time brings ns to
another Inauguration Day, and with il
ends the Grst four years of General Grant's
administration of tho honorable position of
Chief Magistrate of this great Republic.
Looking back over the past term, as he un
doubtedly must and will to-dny, when en
tering upon his second term, he may well
be proud of his record. Pour years of un
interrupted peace and prosperity at home
and abroad our gigantic debt greatly re
duced, and with it tho burdens of taxation
so greatly lessened, nud at its close the fin
ger of scorn pointed at so many of tlie un
worthy representatives of his party so
many hitherto looked up to by the people
with trust and confidence; yet without
an intimation of his conuectiou therewith,
his skirts clear of even suspicion; aud above
all, his almost unanimous re-election to
the position formerly held by the immortal
Washington and his noble successors down
to our loved aud martyred Lincoln. Con
trast the position of thiuzs to-day with the
situation when he grasped the reius of
state, wheu tho country had just passed
through a successful though bloody civil
strife and lind since been nearly ruined
by a dishonored Executive, wheu financial
ruin seemed immineut--theti his stern, un
flinching honesty brought us through
cleared away the meshos of incompetency
anu at tne expiration ot his term receives
the well merited plaudils of a grateful con
stituency, iu d enters upon his second term
with the; encouraging prospects, if as suc
cessful in it ns iu the first, of receiving
upon his retiring therefrom the grateful
thanks of the people, and rest, after his
evcnlful and honored career, with tlie bless
ing of "well done thou good and faithful
servant," resting upon him, and be carried
into history as oue who served his country
well, nnd proves to doubters the fallacy of
the old adage that "Republics are ungrate
ful." While on the subject of new regimes
nbout commencing, 1 nee your people have
done a very sensible act in continuing in
office tlie eliitic.nt Chief Burgess of tho past
year. We can all se tho good he has
done, nud itis well it should be continued.
If a town is to improve and assume its
proper station in this progressive age, it
must be by encouraging improvement, by
judicious expenditure of the public money,
nud now that tin: tMtinty has rid itself of
its drawback iu its dishonest otlicials, it is
good that tbo county seat should be rid of
its incubus of old-fogy ism aud spirit of op
position to improvement. A town will uot
improve, however great ita natural advan
tages may be, unless some attention is paid
to making it attractive, and having its or
dinances of clcauHness, as well ns others,
fully carried out. 1 cougratulate your peo
ple upou their choice, aud that they have
not repeated theit errors of other days iu
dismissing an energetic Council and Bur
gess, after their first year's trial, as if they
had been negligent of duty, or done wrong
iu urging ou improvement. It is well to
be rid of the clogs in the wheels. Couu
cilmeu who uever seo the inside of the
Council Chamber, unless drummed up to
attend, when their voluntarily assumed ob
ligations arc as great ns those whose ac
tions they hinder.
The Constitutional Convention drags
itself along the even tenor of its way, with
out much progress. It is a body not up to
the excellence such a body should manifest.
It has many, very many excellent uud
bright minds upon its tloors; but mauy
more very much below tho ordiuary,
Some days a"o when the subject of wumau
suffrage was under discussion, ono of tho
members trom oup neighboring couuty ot
Montgomery, made a speech thereon, in
tended to be witty, but trausgressiug the
bounds of exact decency, and I am happy
to say saved himself tbo disgrace of having
his speech excluded from tho minutes by
resolution which was drawn up aud about
to bo preseutea by requesting tho report
ers not to report it. It is an evidence of a
better tone than our Legislative bodies
have geucrally, that it should be so re
ceived, aud certainly was redeeming.
Durius the past wek Judge Woodward
has employed his time traducing and mis
representing our city. He has never been
able (and uever will bo. I sunnase,) to fur-
uive our people fur buiun patriotic, by
turuius upon and trampling iu the dust
the pretentions of himself aud his disloyal
associates, when they essaved to weaken
our fotces in the field, by giving them one
ignominious defeat after another. Happy
for tlie State, and happy for tho natiou,
that the counsels of such men availed so
littlo. To-day Judge Woodward is weaker
than ever in this city, and that is needless,
lor ho was always weaker than his party
Still thero was a certain amount of respect
shown him out of respect to the amuiics
accorded nun, but now even tney arc goue
