the whole number of members pro

not reached in the Senate and there
fore did not become a law.
The National Administration that
ended on Friday la?t, was an honest
and clean one, and that is almost
its only merit. It commenced with
an indefensible abandonment of the
Republican party in the South; its
plan of civil service, alternately en
forced and abandoned, was a gro
tesque parody on reform, and its
attempt to run the party without
friendly relations with the Repub
lican leaders resulted in disorgani
sation. It was strong only in its
financial record, and in its defense
of the election laws against the as
saults of a Democratic Congress.

miles 6outh of this city, on the Bal
timore aud Potomac road, between
the section of the fast train north,
w hich left Washington at 11 p. ra.,
and a train of empty passenger cars
drawn by two engines going south
to Washington.
When the trains came together the
occupants of the ex-President's car
had ju.t finished luncheon. and were
engaged in conversation. The first
intimation of the approaching dan

the train which threw several mem
bers of the party from their seata.
In this car none were seriously in-jreJ-
Mil. Hayes, Mrg. Herron,
Mrs. Noble and several other ladies
were all thrown to the floor, but
happily uninjured.
Arriving at the front it was found
that two engines going from Wash

with the engine drawing the Presi
dent's party. In one of the cars lay
one man dead. Under an ensin'e
rashed and scalded, lav another;
a the top of an overturned engine
were tkrec or four train employes
drawing a man fatally injured from
the debria. Tb.e cx-IYesidcnt and

to the wounded.
The engineer of the ox-IV-Sdrnt
train, John Unglant, was Bcriously
injured. The lwor fellow seemed
1o think of nothing nut nis passen

At noo.i on Mcnlar. President

assembled to see him off, and this
is w hat he said to them :

G ARM ELD'S ARRIVAL.
'o Display Rut a IIcaHjr AVelcoma
to Tbe Capital.
Wasiiiogtox, March 1. Gen. Gar
field and party arrived here this

but not imposing, owing to a desire

with cheera. the arrivals were
driven at once to the Iligg House
where another crowd was assem
bled, and all stopped there except
Mrs. Garfield, the elder, who went
direct to the White House, and was
cordially received. On entering the
hotel, Gen. Garfield and Mrs. Gar
field proceeded direct to the draw-inz-room,
where they were welcom
ed by Mr. Davidge, of the citizen's
committee. The General's response
was brief but graceful, and as soon

snowing rapidly, but at this hour
(10 o clock) the clouds are working
awav ana the sun is shining.
All "Washington was out at
early hour, notwithstanding the
storm, and men, women and child
ren were hurrying through the snow
and Blush from every . direction, all
intent on reaching Pennsylrania
avenue to witness the inaugural
procession, or to be at the Capitol, to
be present at the ceremonies to take
rlaee there.
Duringthe entire night trains laden
with military and civilians arrived
and continued throughout the roorn-

every seat has been sola.
THE PROCESSION TO TIIE CAflTOL.
The various divisions marched
along the avenue according to pro
gramme, and at ll:uO the head of
the procession, passing around the
south wing, reached the eastern

tial carnage was driven to the lower
entrance of the Senate wing and the
President elect and Senators Pen
dleton and Thurman entered the
building and proceeded to the Vice
President's room, where they re
mained till 12 o'clock. As early as
10 o clock the crowd began to as
scmble in front of the platform
erected over the 6teps leading to the
main entrance, and at 12 o'clock it
was estimeted 50,000 were massed
in Iront of the building.
Holders of cards of admission to
the Capitol thronged the approaches
to the Senate long before the door
opened and within a few minutes
alter 1 1 o'clock the Senate galleries
were filled to their utmost capacity.
i hev presented a very gay appear
anoe, much the larger portion of
their occupants being ladies, who
graced the occasion with holiday
attire. Mrs. Garfield and her ven
erablc mot lier occupied front 6eats
in the private gallery, and Mrs.
Hayes sat between them.' Misses
Mollie Garfield and Fanny Hayes
nd a few personal friends were also
ot the party. 1 r.c floor ot the Senate
began to fill quite early with distin
guished invited gests, including a
number of army othcers of high
rank.
EXTnAXCE OF DIGXATERIES.
The routine businessof the Senate
proceeded till about 11:30, when
tnc diplomatic corps appeared at
the main entrance, and at once at
tracted universal notice as they filed
down the central aisle in their gor
geous court costumes, resplendent
with gold and silver embroidery
and glittering with decorations.
Sir Edward Thornton headed tht
corps as its dean. The French,
Italian and German Ministers fol
lowed; then came the Turkish Min
ister, wearing his red fez ; and still
more conspicuously attired, the
full Chinese legation next appeared
and offorded a fresh topic for a buzz
ot comment in the galleries alike
by their grave demeanor and their
red button Mandarin hats and pea
cock leathers.
A few minutes afterwards the
Supreme Court of the United States
was announced, and the Justices,
headed by Chit'f Justice Wait
and clad in their robes of office
entered the chamber and marching
slowly down the centre aisle took
the seats prepared lor them in front
of and lacing the rostrum. Ex-
Justices Swayne and Strong also
entered with their former colleagues
Shortly before 12 o'clock General
Garfield and President Hayes en
tered the chamber arm in arm es
corted by Senators Pendleton,
Anthony and Bayard, the Committee
on arrangements, they were followed
by all the members of the Cabinet
As they proceeded down the aisle
to the seats reserved for them, the
Senators and all other occupants of
the floor rose and remained stand
ing until they had taken their seats.
The galleries applauded by clapping
ol hands and waiving ot handker
chiefs. THE VICE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS.
The Vice President-elect was next
announced. He was escorted by the
Sergcani-at-arms, and Senator Pen

THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
At 12:Jo Senator rendleton arose
and introduced General Garfield,
who delivered his inaugural address
as follows :
Fellow Citizens : We stand to
day upon an eminence which over-
looks a hundred years oi national
life, a century crowded with perils,
but crowned with triumph of liberty
and love. Before continuing our
onward march let us pause on this
height for a moment to strengthen
our fa'th and renew our hope by a
glance at the pathway along which
our people have traveled. It is now
three days more than a hundred
years since the adoption of the first
written Constitution of the United
States, the articles of confederation
and perpetual Union. The new Re
public was then beset with danger
on every hand. It had not conquer
ed a place in the family of nations.
The decisive battle of the war for
independence, whose centennial an
niversary will soon be gratefully
celebrated at Yorktown, had not yet
been fought The colonists were
struggling not only against the ar
mies of Great Britain, but against
the settled opinions of mankind,
for the world did not believe that
the supreme authority of govern
ment could be salely entrusted to
the guardianship of the people
themselve. We cannot overesti
mate the fervent love, the intelligent
courage and saving common 6ense
with which our lathers made the
great experimentof self-government.
W hen they found alter a short time
that the confederacy of States was
too weak to meet the necessities of
this glorious and expanding Repub
lic, they boldly set it aside, and in
its stead established a National Un
ion, founded directly upon the will
of the people, endowed with future
powers of self-preservation, and
with ample authority lor the accom
plishment of its great objects. Un
der the Constitution the boundaries
of freedom have been enlarged, the
foundation of order and peace have
been strengthened, and growth in
all the better elements of National
life has vindicated the wisdom of
the founders, and given new hope to
their descendants ; onder this Con
stitution our people long ago made
themselves safe against the danger
from without and secured for their
mariners and the flag equality of
rights on all the seas ; under this
Constitution twenty five State houses
have been added to the union, with
constitutions and laws framed and
enforced by their own citizens to se
cure the manifold blessing of local
self-government Hie jurisdiction
of this constitution now covers an
area fifty times greater than that of
tbe original thirteen States, and the
population twenty times greater than
that of 1780. .
THE CIVIL WAR.
. The supreme trial of the constitu
tion came at last under the tremen
dous pressure of the civil war. We
ourselves are witnesses that the Un
ion emerced from the blood and
fire of that corJiict purified and
made stronger tor all the benificial
purposesof aeood government And
now, at the close of the first centu
ry of growth, with the inspirations
ot its history in their hearts, our
people have lately reviewed the
condition of the nation, passed
judgment upon tbe conduct and
opinions cf political parties, and
bare registered their will concerning
the future administration of fhc
Government. To interpret and ex
ecute that will in accordance with
the constitution -is the paraniount
duty of the Executive. Kven from
this brief review, it is manifest that
the nation is resolutely facing to the
front with the resolution to employ
it best energies in developing the
great possibilities in the future,
sacredly preserving whatever has
been gained to liberty and good
government . during the century.
Our people are determined to leave
behind them all those bitter con
troversies concerning thing which
have been irrevocably settled, fur
ther discussion of which can only
stir up strife and delay the onward
march, f lie supremacy of the na
tion and its laws should be no long
er a subject of debate. That dis
cussion which for a century threat
ened the existence of the Lnion was
closed at last in the high court of
war by a decree, from which there
is no appeal, that the constitution
and laws made in pursuance thereof
shall continue to be the. supreme
law of the land, binding alike upon
the Stiles and the people. This de
cree does not disturb the autonomy
of the States nor interfere with any
of their necessary rules of local Belf-government-
but it does fix and es
tablish the permanent supremacy of
me iuiuii. i hi; mil ui tnc iiuiiuii,
speaking with the voice of battle
and through the amended Constitu
tion, has fulfilled the great promise
of 1876 by proclaiming "liberty
throughout the land to all the in
habitants thereof."
UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.
The elevation of the negro race
Irom slavery to the full rights of
citizenship is the most important
political change we have known
since the adoption of the constitu
tion of 1787. No thoughtful man
can fail to appreciate its beneficent
effect upon our institutions and peo
ple. It has freed us from the per
petual danger of war and dissolu
tion. It has added immensely to
the moral and industrial forces of
our people. It has liberated the
master as well as the slave from a
relation which wronged and enfeebled
both. It has surrendered to their
own guardianship the manhood of
more than 5,000,000 people, and
has opened to them a career of
freedom and usefulness. It has
given a new inspiration to the power
of self-help in both races by making
labor more honorable to one and
more necessary to the other. The
influence of this force will irrow
.'reater and bear richer fruit in com-
in" vears. No doubt a eruater
change has caused serious disturb
a nee to our southern community.
This is to be deplored, though it
was unavoidable. But those who
resisted the change should remem
ber that under our institutions there
was no middle ground for the negro
race between slavery and equal citi-
senship. Ihere can be no perma
nent disfranchised peasantry in the
Lnited States. Freedom can never
yield its fulness of blessings as long
as law or its administration places
the smallest obstacle in the path
way pf any virtuous citizen, The
emancipated race has already made
remarkable progress. With unques
tioning devotion to the Union, and
with a patience and gentleness not
born of fear, they have "followed
the light as God gave them to see
the light" They are rapidly laying
the material foundations for self
support, widening the circle of in
telligence, and beginning to enjoy
the blessings that gather around
the homes of the honest poor. They
deserve the generous encouragement
of all good men, and so' ar as my
authority shall lawfully extend,
they shall enjy the full and equal
protection of the constitution and
laws. The free enjoyment of equal
suffrage is still in question, and a
frank statement of the issues may
aid in its solution. It is alledged
that in many communities negro
citizens are practically denied the
ireeuom oi me uaitot. in so iar a
the truth of this allegation is admit
ted, it is answered that in many
places honest local government is
impossible if the mass ol the uned
ucated negroes are allowed to vote.
These are grave allegations, and so
far as the latter is true, it is the only
palliation that can bo onerea ior op
posing the freedom of the ballot.
But local government is certainly a
great evil which ought to be pre
vented, but to violate the freedom
and sanctity of suffrage is more than
an evil. It is a crime, which, if
persisted in, will destroy the govern
ment itself. Suicide is not a remedy.
If in other lands it be high treason
to cQinpass the death of a king, it
should be counted no lew a crime
here to strangle our sovereign power
and stifle its voice. It has been said
that unsettled questions have no
pity for the repose of nations. It
should be said, with the utmost em
phasis, that this question of sunrage
will never give repose or safety to
the State or Nation until each, with
in its own jurisdiction, makes and
keeps the ballot freeand pure by the
strong sanctions fif law.
NECESSITY OF fOl'ULAR EDUCATION.
But that danger arises from ig
norance in the voter cannot De ao
nied. It covers a field far wider
than that of negro suffrage and the
present condition of the race. It is a
danger that lurks and hides in the
sources and fountain of power in
every State. We have no standard
by which to measure the disaster
that may be brought upon us by ig
norance and vice in citizens when
joined to corrupton and fraud in
suffrage. The voters of the union
who make and unmake constitu
tions, and upon whose will hang the
destiny of our Government, can
transmit their supreme authority to
no succor save the coming genera
tions of voters, who arc the sole
heirs of sovereign power. If that
generation comes to its inheritance
blinded by Ignorance and ccrrupted
by vice, the fall ot the Kepublic
will be sure and remedylcss. The
censushas already sounded the
alarm in appalling figures, which
mark how dangerously high the
tide of illiteracy has arisen among
our voters and their children. To
the South the question is of supreme
importance, but the responsibility
for the existence of slavery did not
rest upon the South alone. The
nation itself is responsible for the
extention of suffrage, and is under
special obligationa to aid In remov
ing the illiteracy which it has ad
ded to the voting population for
North and South alike. There is
but one remedy for all the constitu
tional power of the nation and of
the States, and all the volunteer
forces of the people Bhould be sum
moned to meet the danger by the
saving influence of universal edu
cation. It is a high privilege, and
the sacred duty of those now living
to educate their succrf?ors and fit
them by intelligence and virtue for
the inheritance which awaits them.
In this beneficial work, sections
and races should he forgotten, and
partisanship should be unknown,
lict our people find a new meaning
in tho divine oracle which declares
that "a little child shall lead them,'
for our little children will soon con
trol the destiniea of tho Republic.
past controversies settlep.
My countrymen, we do not now
differ in our judgment concerning
the controversies of tho past genera-
tions, rnd hlty years henco
years henco our
children will not be divided in their
opinions concerning our controver
sies. They will only bless their
father's and their fathers' God that
the Union was preserved, that slav
ery was oyerthrown and both races
were made equal before the law. We
may hasten or we may retard but
we cannot prevent the final recon
ciliation. It is not possible for us
to make a truce with time by an
ticipating and accepting its inevita
ble verdict? Enterprises of the
highest importance to our moral
and materia,! well-being invite us
and offer ample scope for the enjoy
ment of our best powers. Let all
our people, leaving behind them
the battle fields and dead issues,
move forward, and, in the strength
of liberty and a restored Union, win
the grandest victories of peace. The
propriety which now prevails is
without parallel in our history.
Fruitful seasons have done much
to secure it, but they have not done
all. The preservation of the public
credit and the resumption of specie
payments, so successfully obtained
by the administrations of my pred
ecessors, has enabled our people to
secure the blessings which the sea
sons brought By the experience of
nil nations in all ages it has been
found that gold and silver alibi d
the only safe foundation for a mon
etary system. Confusion has re
cently been created by variations in
the relative value of the two met
als, but I confidently believe that
arrangements can be made between
the leading commercial nations
which will secure the general use of
both meta.s. Congress should pro
vide that compulsory coinage of
silver, now required by law, may
not disturb our monetary system by
driving either metal out of circula
tion. If ossible, 6tich adjustment
should be made that the purchas
ing jower of every coined dollar
will be exactly equal to its debt-
paying iower in all the markets of
the world. The chief duty of the
National Government in connection
with the currency of the country is
to coin and declare its value. Grave
doubts have been entertained whetli-
cr Congress is authorized by the
i Constitution to make any form of
paper money legal tender, lne
present issue of United States notes
lias been sustained by the necessi
ties of war, but such paper should
depend, for its value and currency,
upon its convenience in use and its
prompt redemption in coin at will
or'order, and not on its compulsory
circulation. These notes are not
money, but promises to pay money,
if the holders demand it. The
promises should be kept There
funding of the national debt at a
lower rate of interest should be ac
complished without compelling the
withdrawal of national bank notes,
and thus disturbing the business of
the country. I venture to refer to
the position I have occupied on the
financial question during a long
service in Congress, and to say that
time anil experience have strength
ened the opinions I have so often
axpressed on these subjects, lhe
finances of the Government shall
suffer no detriment which it may
be possible for my administration
to prevent
MATERIAL INTERESTS.
The interests of agriculture de
serve more attention from the Gov
ernment than they have 3'et received
The farmers of the United States af
ford homes ar.d employment for
more than one half of the people,
and furnish the much larger part
of all our exports. As the Govern
ment lights our coasta for the pro
tection of mariners and the benefit
of commerce, so it should give to
the tillers of the soil the light of
practical science and experience.
Our manufactures are rapidly makt
ing us industriously independen-.
and are opening to capital and labor
new and profitable fields of em
ployment. This steady and healthv
growth should still be maintained.
Our facilities for transportation
should le promoted by the contin
ued improvement of our harbors
anil the great interior water ways,
and by aninere.iseof our tonnage on
the ocean. The development of the
world's commerce has led to an ur
gent demand for shortening the great
sea voyage around Capo Horn by
constructing ship canals or railways
across the Isthmus which unites
the two continents. Various plans
to this end have been suggested, and
will need consideration, but none
of them have been sufficiently ma
tured to warrant the United States
in extending pecuniary aid. The
subject is one which will immedi
ately engage the attention of the
Government, with a view to the
thorough protection of American in
teresta. We will urge ' no narrow
policy nor seek peculiar or exclu
sive privileges in any commercial
route, but in the language of my
predecessor, I believe it to be "the
right and duty of the United States
to assert" and maintain such super
vision and authority over our inter
oceanic canal across the isthmus
that connects North and Soiith
America im will protect out Nation
al interests."
THE TWIN RELICS.
The constitution guarantees ab
solute religious freedom. . Congress
is prohibited from making any laws
respecting the establishment of reli
gion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof in the Territories of the
United States subject to the direct
legislative authority of Congress,
and hence tho General 6overnment
is responsible for any violation of
the constitution in any one of them.
It is, therefore, a reproach to the
Government that in the most popu
lous of the Territories the constitu
tional guarantee is not enjoyed by
the people, and the authority of
Congress is set at naught The Mor
mon church not only offends the
moral sense of maakind bv sane
tionir,g palygiuny, but prcvcnU the
auministraiiun i justice mrougu the
ordinary instrumentalities of law.
In my judgement it is the duty of
tongresi, white respecting to tho ut
most the conscientious convictions
and religious scruples of every citi
zen, to prohibit within its jurisdic
tion all criminal practices, especially
of that class which destroy family
relations and endanger social order ;
nor can any eclesiastical organiza
tion be Lately permitted to usurp,
in the smallest degree, the functions
and powers of the National Govern
ment The civil service can never be
placed on a satisfactory basis until
it is regulated by law for tho good
of the service itself, for the protection
of those who are intrusted with the
npjiointing power against the waste
of time and obstruction to the pub
lic business caused by the inordinate
pressure for place, and ior the pro
tection of the incumbents against
intrigue and wrong. I shall at the
proper time ask Congress to fix the
j tenure of minor offices of the several
; executive department-, and pn-senbe
grounus upon which reo.o b.8 ..-
be made during the terms for which
the incumbents have been appoint
ed '
Finally, acting always within the
authority and limitations of the
constitution invading neither the
rights of States nor reserved rights
of the people it will lie the pur
pose of my administration tomain-

dience to all the laws of the Union

all the executive officers, remember
ing that the offices were created not
for the benefit of the incumbents or
thtir supporters, bat for the service
ofthe Government.
And now, fellow citizens, I am
about to assume the great truit
which you have committed to my
hands. I appeal to you for that
earnest and thoughtful support
which m ikes this Government in
fact, as it is in law, a government of

quite small in size, "and by trade
a boiler maker. In a quarrel some
two years ago White whipped Aiken.
