.
Hi'.ds little to the solemn sense of
riMnMbility with which I contem
plate the duty I owe to all tne peo-
j leol the l.md. Isoitmig can re-
ieve me froiu anxiety lest by an act
of mine their interests may suffer
and nothing is needed to strengthen
my resolution to engage every facul
ty and tllort in tne promotion oi
their w el lare. Amid the Uiu oi par
ty strife the people's choice was
made, but its attendant circumt-tau
cea have demonr-iraled anew the
rlriiElh and safely o! a government
b. the people. In each tucCced ng
i year it more clearly appears that
lour Democratic principle needa no
apology and that in its fearless and
,'aitlilul appreciation is to be found
the surest guaranty ofgotid goveru-
luenL But the bebt results in the
operations of a governmeut whereio
every citizen has a share largely de-
pei d upon a proper limitation of
purely partisan Zeal and effort and a
correct appreciation of the time when
the heat of the parliz-'U should be
merged iu the patriotism of the citi
zens. To day the executive branch
of the government is transfrrtcd to
i ew keeping. But this is Hill the
government of ail the people, but it
should be none the less su object ol
their affectionate solicitude. At this
hour the animosities of political
strife, the bitleTIH-SB of partizan dfr
c . P r
it at, and the exultation ot paruz u
triumph should - be supplant d by
n nt. grudging ai.quie?cence in the
popular will, und a sober, conscien
tious concern fur the general weal.
Moreover, if from this hour we
cheerfully and honestly abandou all
rectioitbl prejudice and distrust, and
i l-f iii ne, Willi inan!) confidence li.
one anothei, to work out harmoni
ouly the act.it vniientii of our na
lioii.il debtiny, e bball deserve lu
reaiiz-all the benetita which our
hppv form of (ioverumeut can be
flow. On this nu.-picious occaion we
may well renew the pledge of our
dtVotion to the conetitution, when
launched by the founders of the re
puMic, ai cont-ecrattd by their
prayers and patriotic devotion, has
f'.r aln.oet a century borne the hopes
and the aspirations of a great people
through prosperity and peace, and
through the bhock of foreign con-tln-ts-
aid the perils of domestic strife
-tu! vici.-.-ituitff. l!v the father ol
i.i- coui.tiy, our tonbtitutioi. was
Cniiiiiiended for adoption as "There
Milt of a r-(i rit of mnii and mutual
ronceK-.ion." In that came rpirit it
should he adniini.-tered in order to
promote the Instil. g welfare of the
routitM , and to hecure the lull meas
ures of its priceless benefits to us
.uid to thre who will succeed to the
hi Brings of our national life. The
large viiriety of diverse and comj-et-ing
ints reels bubject to federal con
trol, pii-tenily asking the recogtii
tioii of their chums, need give us no
fear that "The greatest good to the
greatest liUiiilter, ' will fall to be ac
r.Miii lished, if, in the IihIIs of nation
al legi.latiin. that spirit of amity
and mutual concession ehall prevail,
in which the tonrtilUtioli had its
birth. If this involves the surren
deror poi-tjiouemeiitof private inter-
e. -is, at.d the abandonment of local
dvaiitages. compensation will be
f. iund in the assurance that thus the
Common interest is subserved and
the general welfare advanced. In
thedi.-charge of my official duty I
chall endeavor to he guided by a
jtist and unstrained construction of
ihe constitution, a careful observance
of the distinction between the pow.
ts granttd to the federal govern
ii e. I and those reserved to the
staus, or to th- eople, and by a
c.u'.ious appreciation of those func
iioi.s which, by the constitution and
laws, have been especially asrigne'l
I.-the executive branch of the kov
ri ninei.t. But he who hikes the oath
to dav to preserve, protect and de
f. i d the ciin-titution of the United
.Stales-, only assumes the solemn ob
ligation which every patriotic citizen
mi the farm, in the workshop, iu the
busy marts of trade, and everywhere
hould share with him. Theconsti
tution wlikh prescrihe-his oath, my
to.iii tr) mm is jour.-; the govern
ment jou have chosen him to ad-
, minister for a time is yours; the
e-ufli age which executes the will of
freeuien is jours ; 'he laws and en
tite scheme of our civil rule from
the town meeting to the state capi
tols and the national capitol is
yours. Your every voter, as surely
aa your chief magistrate, under he
same high sanction, though in a dif
lereiit sphere, exercises a public
trust. Nr is this all. Every citi
zen owes .o the country a vigilant
watch and close scrutiny of its pub
lic servants and a fair and reasonable
estimate of their fidelity and useful
ness. This irt the people's will im
pressed upon the . whole framework
of our civil policy municipal, state
and federal and this is tbe price of
our lilterty, and the inspiration of
our faith iu the republic. It is the
dutv of those serving the people iu
public placets closely limit public
expenditures to the actual needs of
the government . economically ad
ministered ; because this bounds the
right of .ihej'oyernment to exact
tribute from the earnings j( labor on
the property of the citizen, and be
cause public extravagance beget
extravagance among the people.
We should never be ashamed of the
simplicity and prudential economies
which are best suited to the opera
tions of a ReDublican form of gov
ernment, and most compatible with
the mission of the American neoiijp.

of our iiisiituiixiis, the needs oi our
people in their borne life, and the
attention which w deuipntfed tor the
settlement and development of the
resources of our vat territory, dic
tate the scrupulous avoidance of any
departure from that foreign policy
commended by the history, the tra
ditions aid the prosperity of our rt-
oubltc. ' It is tne policy of mde
. utudmet. favored by our position
Uud deleuded by our known love of
justice and by our power.' ' It is tiie
policy of peace (suitable to our inter
ests. It is the policy of neutrality
rejecting any share iu foreign broils
and ambitious upon other continents
and rebelling their lutrurion here.
It is the ibjlicy of Monroe, and of
... . A. A.
Washington ana jenereon ueace,
Commerce, and honest friendship
with all nations ; entangling aliiau
ces with none." A due regard for
the interests and prosperity of all
people, demands that our finances
shall be established upon such a
sound and sensible basis as shall se
cure the safety and confidence of
business intertsts, SLil make the
wage of labor sure and steady ; m,d
that our sysiem of revenue shall be
so adjus'.ed as to Relieve the people
from unnecessary taxation, having a
due regard to the iuterests af capital
invested, and workingmen employ
ed in American industries and pre
venting an accumulation of a sur
plus in the treasury to tempt extrav
agance and waste. Gtre for the
property of the nation and for the
needs of future settlers, require that
the public domain should be protect
ed from purloining schemes aud un
lawful occupation. The conscience
of the people demands that the Ii
dians within our boundaries shall he
fairly and honestly treated us ward.
of the government, and their educa
tion and civilization promoted, with
a view to their ultimate citizenship;
and that poljgamy in the territories,
destructive of the family relation
and offensive to the moral sense of
the civilized world, shall be repress
ed. The laws should be enforced
which prohibit the immigration of a
servile class to compete with Ameri
can labor, with no intention of ac
quiring . citizenship, aud bringing
with them and retaining ha oils and
customs repugnant lo our civiiizt-
tion. The- people demand relorni
fn the administration of the govern
ment, and the application of hu.-i
ness nriuciples to public aif urs. A
a means to this end civil service re
form should he in good faith enforc
ed. Our cit lens have a right to pro
tection from the incompetency ol
public employes who hold their pla
ces as a reward of partisun service,
and from the corrupting influence ot
those who- promise,jiiid the vicioun
methods of those who expect such
rewards. And those who worthily
seek public employment have the
right to insist tfial competency shall
be recognized instead ot party sub
serviency, or tbe surrender of honest
political belief. In the administra
tion of a government, pledged to do
equal and exact justice to ll men,
there should be no pretext for anx
iety touching the prottction of treed
men in their rights, or their security
iu the et joy ment of their privileges
under the constitution and its
amendment. All discussious as to
their fitness for the place accorded to
them as American citizens is idle
und unprofitable, except as it sug
gests the necessity for their improve
ment. The fact that they are citi
zens entitles them to all the rights
due to that relation, and charges
them with all its duties, obligations
and resioiiBih)litieB. These top es,
and the constant and ever varxii g
wants of an active and enterprising
population, may well receive the at
tention and patriotic endeavor of
all who make and execute the feder
al law. - Our duties are practical and
call tor industrious application, an
intelligent perception of the claims
of public office, and, above all, a

into which it had been thrown by
preceding speakers, paid :
I have; seen the sea lashed with
fury and t sed with spray, ami its
(.raudeur m jves the soul of the dull
est man; hut I remember that it is
hot the billows, hut the calm level of
the ea, from which all heights and
depths are measured." Iu closing,
tie said of his candidate: '4 1 do not

him the doubtful talent of pyrotech
tiles; hut l do claim thit tie in the
administration of public affairs
would give u-i the most precious gift
that we could ask absolute safety

would afford the most abso utesnfety
to thu humblest citizen appealing for
his rights. It is such a man, in the
era of peace, and for the purposes of
peace, a statesman in the very best
sense of the word, that we would put
at the helm of state."
It is President Arthur's good for
tune and an experience very rare
in our iKilitical history that at Ihe
expiration of his term he need not
wait any subsidence of the billows
for that calm level from which his
own fame and the merits of his aH
ininistrntion may be measured. Still
more is he fortunate in the circum
stance that in the measurement from
this Cttlm level, by the almost uni
versal judgment of his fellow-citizens
he fiitl his administration realize
perftctly the ideal portrayed in the
above quotation.
The conditions surrounding Presi
dent Arthur' youth were not -nch
us tne vntii g men of the present das
would them ng'teable or prosperous
but tliev proved fortunate for him.
-ince tl.ey favored the develojiment
of his s!t. n, s m i e ric-tl. nd self
reliant character. From hi- father,
a Paptist clergyman born in Ireland,
graduated from IMfnst University,
and settled iu Vermont, he inherit!
iti'li an ean c-t love of justice and
profound h.:ir-"j fr 'l forms of op
pression, a streuaousr.es- of will and
strength of purpose which led him
at the beginning of ids professional
practice o brave hostile public sen
timent and the l-it'emess of color
and caste prejudice, in the tlefenst of:
the slave Mid the championship ot
the despised necro. At his father's
knee the foundation of his e.luc i-
tion wvs so mil and broadly laid
that whtn eraduated from Union
C'ollege at the aire of eighteen, m the
eiiiHs of 1S49, he was among the first
six scholars in a class of over 10U
members.
In 1J, having been admitted to
the bar. and become a member of the
law firm of Culver. P..rkent Arthur,
in thi-city, he diiiiigui.-i.ed him
self by z-al ami ability in the fa
mous Lemiuon slave cases. In lS-')
he secured a verdict against the
Fourth Avenii" Uiilroad Company
in favor of a c l-red woman who
had been ejected from one of the
company's cars under a rule forbid
ding the use ot them to colored peo
ple. By this decision of the courts
the street raiiroad companies were
compelled to rescind the obnoxious
ru'e, and admit colored people to
equal privileges with the whites

position which offered the most al
luring opportunities for self-aggrandizement,
kept himself above the
shadow of suspicion, and left the of
fice poorer than when he entered it.
Retiring from the office of Quartermaster-General
upon the accession-of
a Democratic State aJminis

tice of his pruiessj.m. He held for
'a short tiao the office if counsel to

In LS71 he formed the well known

conciliate the supporters of Grant,
besou-ht General Arthur to accept
the second place upon the ticket, i
His most intimate friend, Senator!
t'onklmg, advised him against it, for
the reason that the election of the
ticket was extremely doubtful, and,
if elected, the place was an unim
portant one, with a four years' ten
ure, wnile, on the other hand, there
was a reasonable certainty of his elec
tion as United States Senator by the
next Legislature, with a six years
term and probable continuance in
office. General Arthur fully com
prehended the situation. It was in
the spirit of sacrifice that he accept
ed, and immediately put heart and
hand into the work of electing the
ticket.
The harmonious conditions he had
been so largely instrumental in bring
ini about were suddenly interrupt
ed, iu the first month of the new ad
ministration, by the change-, of the
Federal offices in this city. The two
Senators resigned, and went to the
legislature for re-election. The dom
inant party was plunged into faction
al strife, and the Pre-ident and Vice
President were no longer in accord.
Pre-ently, in these conniiious, the
ass.is-in's pistol rang another sharp
and sudden change. From that
moment the Vice President put be
hind him all causes of difference ;
evry other feeling was absorbed iu
his horror of the crime and his sym
p ahy with the stricken victim. It
was an occasion that must unavoid
ably reveal the depths of a man's
character. At a time when faction
was in the ascendant, when parti
sanship was intense and hitler, when
popular passion was re-enforced by
public grief, and the atmosphere was
surcharged with cei:soriousi.e.-s and
uncharity, the Vice President bore
himstlf with a dignity of demeanor
aud sense of respou-itiiiit ..that chal
lenged the re-pct of his opponents,
while the manifest sincerity with
which he united in the general
mouri.ii g at the nation's bereave
ment, commanded sympathetic re
gard
No President ever entered onice
utidtr such tremendous disadvanta
ges as President Arthur encountered
uoon his accession. Gravely and
seriously, not as leader of a faction,
or survivor ot a controversy, but as
one entrusted with great power and
conscious of vast responsibilities, he
..hire. ed him-elf to his new duties.
! For-ttting faction and divesting him-
elf of partisanship, without desert
ing his friends or sacrificing princi
ple, he made it his chief endeavor to
restore harmony antl confidence to
the country. The careful student of
the history of his time will accord
him the distinction of having
achieved this object in the face of
obs.acits that seemed insurmounta
ble. At the close of his term he re
tires from office enjoy ing the confi
dence and esteem of men of all parties
to au extent attained by few of his
predecessors. His personal demean
or in office has been marked by
modesty joined with dignity, by
affability and courtesy that won
confidence without encouraging fa
miliarity, and by such patience and
composure under misrepresentation
as entitle him to the highest praise.
In his administration of public af
fairs he has always listened to ad
vice and carefully weighed testimo
ny, but in the end has relied upon
his own clear judgment; always de
liberate in action, he has never been
slack in an emergency; preferring
conservatism and safety to dash and

maintained the dignity of his office,
