We hasten over other particulars, to give 'the Address. The ceremony has been of .the most solemn and imposing character. TUE ADDRESS. Elected. by the American People to the highest office known to our laws, I appear here to take the oath prescribed by the Con stitution, and, in compliance with a time honored custom, to address those who are now assembled. The confidence and respect shown by my countrymen in calling me to be the Chief Magistrate of a Republic holding a high rank among the nations of the earth, have inspired me with feelings of the most pro found gratitude ; but, when I reflect that the acceptance of the office which their partiali ty has bestowed, imposes the discharge of the most arduoui duties, and . involves the weightiest obligations, I am conscious that that the position which I have been called to fill, though sufficient to satisfy the loftiest ambition, is surrounded by fearful responsi-, bilities. . Happily, however, in the perform ance of my new duties, I shall not be with out able co-operation. The Legislative and Judicial branches of the government present prominent examples of distinguished civil attainments and matured experience ; and it shall be my endeavor to call to my assistance in the Executive Departments, individuals whose talents, integrity and purity of char acter will furnish ample guaranties fur the faithful and honorable performance of the trusts to be committed to their eharge. With such aids, and an • honest purpose to do whatever is right, I hope to execute diligent ly; impartially, and Cordite hest interests of the country, the manifold duties devolved upon me. In the discharge of thesed titles, my guide will be the Constitution which I this day swear to "preserve, protect and defend." For the interpretation of that instrument. I shall look to the decisions of the Judicial Tribunals established by its authority, and to the practice of the Government under the 'earlier Presidents, who had so large a share - in its. formation. To the example of those illustrious patriots I shall always defer with reverence; and especially to his example who was, by so many titles, "the Father of this Country." command the Army and Navy of the United States ; with the advice and consent •of-the Senate, to make Treaties and appoint 'Ambassadors and other officers; to give to Congress information of the state of the Uni on, and reconunend such measures as he shall judge ;o be necessary ; and to take care that'the laws shall be faithfully executed.— these are the most important functions en , trusted to the President by the Constitution: and it may be expected that I shall, briefly, inclicsite.the principles which will control me. in their execution. Chosen by the body of the people under ithe assurance that the Government, so far as I could influence its administration, would be devoted to the welfare of the whole coun- try, and not to the support of any particular section or merely local interest, I this day renew the declarations I have heretofore made, and proclaim my fixed determination . . 4o maintain, to the extent of my ability, the government in its original purity, and 'o adOPt as the basis of my public policy those :ghat republican doctrines which constitute I the strength of our national existence. ,In reference to the Army and Navy, lately employed pith so much distinction on active service, care shall be taken to ensure the 'highest' &edition of efficiency; and in furtli 'erance of that object the military and naval schools, sustained by the liberality of Con -gross, shall receive the special attention of ( the,Executive. •- As American freemen we canhot but sym pathise in all efforts to extend the blessings :of civil and political liberty ; but, at the same 'time, we are warned by the admonitions of Wtroy Wand the voice of our own beloved Washington to abstain from entangling alli ances with foreign nations. In all disputes between conflicting Governments, it is our interest not less than our duty to remain strictly neutral ; while our geographical po shi6n, the genius of our institutions and our ;people, the advancing spirit of civilization, and, aboire all, the dictates of religion, direct us to the cultivation of peaceful and friendly relations with all . other Powers. It is to be hoped that no international question can now anse which a Government, confident in its Own strength and resolved to protect its own just rights, may not settle by wise negotia • lion ; and it'ernmently becomes a Govern- Irm like our own , founded - on the morality bad • idielligence of, its citigens, and upheld bitheit iill%Ctiond, to 'exhaust every • resort bf. honkrOile diplomacy before appealing to fats: 'la 4ridnet; of Mit foreign relauonti I shall conform to these views, as I believe them essential to,the 'best - interests and•true lion& of the country. The appointing power vested in the Pre sideni imposes delicate and onerous duties. So far as it is possible to be informed, I shall make honesty, capacity, and fidelity, indis pensable pre-requisites to the bestowal of office, and the absence of either of these qualities shall be deemed sufficient cause for removal. It shall be my study to recommend such constitutional measures to Congress as may be necessary and proper. to secure encour agement and projection to the great interests of Agriculture, Commerce, and Manufac tures; to improve our rivers.and harbors; to provide for the speedy extinguishment of the.public_debt;_to_enforee a strict account=_ ability on the part of all officers of the Go verninent, and the utmost economy in all .public•exPenditures. But it is for the-wis dorn of Congress itself ; in which all legis lative powers are vested by the Constitu tion,. to regulate these and other matters of domestic policy. I shall look with confi dence to the enlightened patriotism of that body to adopt such measures of conciliation as may harmonize conflicting interests, and tend to perpetuate that Union which should be the paramount object of our hopes and affections. In any action calculated to pro mote an object so near the heart of every one who truly loves his country, I will zeal ously unite with the co-ordinate branches oCthe Government. In conclusion, I congratulate you, my fellow citizens, upon the high state of pros perity to which the goodness of Divine Pro vidence has conducted our common country. Let us invoke a continuance of the same protecting care, which has led us from small beginnings to the eminence we this day oc cupy, and let us seek to deserve that con tinuance by prudence and moderation in our councils; by well directed attempts to assuage the bitterness which too often marks unavoidable difference of opinion ; by the promulgation and practice of just and liberal principles ; and by an enlarged patriotism, which shall acknowledge no limits but those of our own wide-spread Republic. ZACHARY TAYLOR. Washington, March 5, 1849. Senatorial Correspondence. (From the NOonal Intelligeneer.) GENTLEMEN :—The extraordinary char acter of theTollowing letter frcim General Shields, received through the mail oti the morning of the 24th instant, imposes upon me the necessity of giving it publicity, with some comments thereon. I haVe, therefore, to ask of you sufficient space in your col umns for that purpose. WAsurawrox, Feb. 22. 1817 • HON. SIDNEY BREESE: Sir—On my return to this country from Mexico—broken in constitution, lbeble in health, and still suffering under the effects of wounds you were the only man in the City of Washington who received me with coldness and unkindness. When the city honored me with a public dinner, which was generously intended not .only as a compli ment to me but to my State, you were the only man whodeclined , to attend that dinner. You went farther; you propagated a report ht re in Washington, and circulated it after ward in Illinois, that I was ineligible to the office of Senator, and this too after I had poured out my blood like water on the battle fields of my country. You published an ar ticle in the St, Louts ReptiMican charging the with ineligibility—doing that which I thought no man in these United States would have been mean enough to do in my .ose, even if it had been true. You, however, did this, knowing it to be untrue. On this subject I have simply to say, that had I been defeated by you on that ground, I had sworn in say heart that you never should have profited by your success, and depend upon it, I would have kept that vow regard less of consequences. That, however, is now passed, and the vow is canceled by your ,defeat. Why I address you now is simply this : In MO you gave me seine thing thing in the shape of a final Certificate of Naturalization-in Efling,lunn Court. You knew at,the time that.l was naturalized by law, and by the unumdization of my litther while I was a minor., I tolil you the cumstances, and, as Lawn talked olgoing to Canada in case of war, you ollered to give me a certificate which would simplify the proof in case of difficulty. Now I wish you to give the a letter acknowl edging themi facts. I write you a private letter fir that purpose. I should have sent a friend at once and inipennivOly demanded smell a let ter, but I felt that in disgracing you I should disgrace the State that had made you and myself Senators, and I also wished to give you an opportunity to make this acknowl edgment quietly: If, however, you persist in your course of injustice toward ma and refuse this request, here give you fair warning. Let the consequences fall on your own head. L shall hold myself acquit ted, both before God and man, for the course shall feel bound to inirsno toward you. Yeur obedient servant,' JAMES SHIELDS. LiV"The following is the reply of Judo Breese, to the belligerent epistle of Gimeral Shields. _ Gen. Shields begins his letter by refering to the wounds he received in Mexico. This allusion seems quite • unnecessary. The whole country, and particularly the people l of Illinois, are familiar with the fact that he bears honorable scars upon his person. For these wounds• ho has already received a lib eral share of sympathy from his grateful countrymen. However, lam not disposed to cavil at this part of his letter. It is a mat.; ter of taste that does not concern me. . I denymost positively that I treated Gen. Shields with' ~c oldness or unkindness" on his return frord.Me'xico. Immediately on his arrival in thin city: I called to pay .re •epeata to him, and not findingi Nat at lame, left my card, as is custom. A few days at; WAsnmoroN, Feb. 26, 1849 ter this I met General Shields, u•heri his manner towards me Was so cold and repul sive that saw all familial' personal inter course was at an end, and of course I did not attend the dinner given.to him. I repeat that I did not treat Gen. Shields with "cold ness and unkindness," for I entertained, at that time, none other than the most friendly feelings towards hilts ; and I appeal to the whole history up to this time of ourper sonal, professional, and, political intercourse to support this declaration. As to his cligi bilty to the office of Senator, I can only say that I "propagated" no "report," here or elsewhere, in relation to it. In conversation upon this subject, I stated to a friend, a fact wijcli the Effingham circuit court will es tablish, and "blood," no matter where, or how "poured out," cannot alter the record, Or . Change the Constitution - of the United States. The assertion of General Shields that I charged him with "ineligibility," in• an article in the St. Louis Republican, not only is not true, but is without any color of truth. I positively assert, and defy contra diction, that I did not write, or cause to be written, nor knew until after its publication; that it had been written,. that, or any other article, for that or any other paper,.in rela tion to this subject. Not the least so of the many remarkable passages ofihis letter Of General Shields is the following: On the subject I have simply to say that, had I been defeated by you on that ground, (the ground of ineligibility,) I had sworn . in my heart, that you neve r . should have profited by your success; and, depend upon it, I would have kept my vow regardless of consequences." Certainly it is fortunate for the honor of the country that this rash "vow" has been "cancel!. d" by my defeat! General Shields submits his pretentions to a seat in the Senate to a Dem ocratic caucus of the Illinois and agrees expressly, or by the clearest int- I plication, that he will abide their decision; and yet it appears that at this very moment "he had sworn in 'heart' to defeat the will of the party if it had pronounced in favoq of his most prominent competito/; and, in 'or dertoaccomplish his purpose, he determines to perpetrate an assassination ; for such is the obvious import of this language. Such a design and such a deed are revolting to the American mind, and foreign to the American character. They are worthy on ly of the most infamous age of Italian crime. I If our political contest, are to be mingled with, or followed by personal violence, how long will our elective system endure ?' With out further comment, I submit this extraor dinary passage to.the consideration of candid men, Christians and patriots, who love and respect the laws and institutions of ourcoun try, and desire to guard and defend theca against all violation. Gen. Shields says : "In 18.10 I gave him something in the shape of a final cer tificate of naturalization," which was "to simplify the proof in case of difficulty." The naturalization laws do not recognise "something" or anything "in,tho shape of a final certificate" to "simplify proof in case I of difficulty," or for any other purpose. How, then, could I, a circuit judge; have given him any such paper ? The statement has no fact, legal provision, or probability to support it. The truth is, no such "certifi cate" was ever given by me. He may, or may not, have procured a copy of the record of his naturalization under'ffie seal of the court, and that is the only certificate I could, have any .connexion with, directly or indi rectly. The first and only knowledge I ev er had of Gen. Shields' father, either in con nexion with his citizenship or in any other connexion, I derived from an article publish ed in the St. Louis Republican, a short time subsequent to the election of Senator. And I have yet to see or hear of any man in Illi nois or elsewhere who knew that his father was. even a resident of this country. . Gen. Shiehls says I knew that he (being a minor at the time) was naturalized by the naturalization of his father; because h 0 "told the of the circumstances."—Suppose he did tell the so, (which I positively deny,) does that make it so ? Even though his assertion might convince me of the fact, a bundle of eertilientes from lite, no matter how strong, would be of no legal valor, II it be true thitt•his father wits it% this eotintry tunLeutu ralized, in it possible that (lettere! Shields eliottltt linow the feet, and not know the State and etittaly who're it oetetrriel t When au thentie copies of those tuttunlizittion papers. ir they exist, could be no easily procured. is it not 'deluge lie tiliould attempt to extort from me by mime a statement which. if obtained, could have no legal bearing upon the subject ? What the. "consequences" are against which Gen. Shields gives me "fair warning," if I persist in what no sane man will call "In justice," I am equally ignorant of and ind iffer- I ent to. One thing is certain, be they what they may, I have not given, nor Shall I give him, any "statement" of the character re quired, either "quietly" or upon "imperative demand." In conclusion, I will state that I hawk neither , provoked nor desired the necessity that has impelled me to make this communi cation. I respectfully submit it tinder the full conviction that it is called for by the cir cumstances. SIDNEY BREESE. Ilitshington, Feb. 20, 1849. • • In Elephant on a Spree. An Elephant which is being exhibited in Notv York broke loose from his place of confinement cin Thursday night the Ist inst. he first place he entered was a shanty, the second story floor of which he raised, upset a woman and two, children in bed, and set the place on fire. From this place he went to the corner of Mott and Bayard streets, and entered a gro cery store, and seated its contents pretty ex tensively. When the owner saw him com ing, he shut the door against him, but it was of little use. The elephant walked straight through it, and gave the owner a charge of mud. from. his trunk, for his politeness in abutting the door in• his. face. From .this place he.entored a school yax4 aext,doot. to churdh at ttiti coiner of Crime and Mott 40reets, broke in the school-house door and did consid, , ruble danage. Upon coming out of the yard he broke down the iron railing, as though- it-had been so much brushwood. After leaving this place he pasSed down Bay ard to Mulberry, then turned back up Bay ard to Mott, then went .down Bayard to Or range; then into Franklin street, across Broadway to Chambers street e .up Church to Leonard, then up to Broadway, and down Broadway to Duane, followed by thousands of people in the greatest state of excitement. He then passed down Duane street to the North river, mak int.! an inspection into the condition of several of the piers, to see what improvements were being made by our city fathers, when he proceeded up West street to the Hoboken Ferry at the foot of Cattail street. Noticing the lights in the Hoboken H 11, arid ' 1-t—t-o-br"tai- tote], arid supposing i. Jo n tavern, he determined ,to take advantage of that part of . the license law ••stipulating- for "entertain-- ment .for, man and beast," and endeavored to eff.ct an entrance ; but the granite pillars not affording space for his huge frame, he was obliged to desiSt. from further efforts. Being now quite satisfied with his spree, he suffered his keeper to conduct him back home to his domicil. Bridging the Ohio.—Mr. Eliot proposes to build a suspension bridge over the Ohio, between Cin cinnati and Covington, to cost $300,000, and not to interfere with the navigation. The gigantic arch is to be 120 feet above the centre of the river at low water, or fifty-two feet above the great flood of 1832—the towers for the suspensitin of the wire cables 23(1 feet high—twenty cables four inches in diameter, capable ofsuStaining a weight of 7000 tons. The lower House of the Ohio Legislature has passed a bill incorporating a com pany to build the bridge. North Caro!infs.—This State has endeavored to raise a respectable rivalry to California'on small scale. It is stated that four men lately found 12f pounds of gold in two days, in Monroe county, and others were finding gold in more or less quantity every day. This has ,given quite an impetus to business in that section. Squalling a Little.—Some years ago, in the Hampshire House of Representatives, one of the members of that body, an old stick from South Hampton, when the yeas and nays were taken on an important question, did not answer to his name. Alter the roll was finished, he arose and addressed the presiding officer in the following pithy language :—'•Mr. Speaker, I rise to jet you know that I did not mean to dodge this question. I'only squatted a little, in order to take a better view of the whole subject; and I now say "NO " to that critter !" The manner in which this was done excited an universal burst of laughter from the members. In/MIMED. On the 26th of February, by the Re v.
