    Inaugural Address of Gen. Pierce.
We give below an extract of the Inaugu
ral Address of General Franklin Pierce, the
recently elected President of the United
States. It has evidently been prepared with
considerable care, and while Democratic in
its tone and doctrines, it is, on the whole,
eloquent and patriotic. Its chief points may
be briefly summed up thus!
" The President commences by a deli
cate allusion to the loss of his only son, and
says that no heart but his own can know
the personal regret and bitter sorrow over
which he has been borne to a position suit
able to others, rather than desirable for him
self. He is filled with a profound sense of
his respojisibility, but nothing like a shrirac
mg apprehensions. The people have sum
moned him in his weakness ; they must
sustain him 'by their strength. Thus far
the country has in his judgement, fulfilled its
highest duty to suffering humanity. It has
spoken and will continue to speak, not only
by its words, but by its acts, the lanauage
..nd h^= •
of sympathy, encouragement and hope, in
-those who T-earnestly-listen-to-tones—which
pronounce for the largest rational liberty.
nut, after all the most animating encourage
ment and potent appeal for freedom will be
its own history, its trial and its triumphs.—
Pre-eminently, the power of our advocacy,
reposes in our example, be it remembered,
can be powerful for lasting good, whatever
apparent advantages may be gained which
is not based upon eternal principles of right
and justice. Our fathers decided for them
selves, both upon the hour to declare and
the hour to strike. The apprehensions of
dangers from extended territory or multi
plied States, has proved to he unfounded.—
The policy of the new Administration will
not be controlled by any timid forebodings of
evil from expansion. Indeed, it is not to_
be disguised that cur attitude as a nation,
and our position on the globe, render the ac
quisition of certain possessions, not within
our jurisdiction, eminently important for our
protection-, if not, in the future essential for
the preservation of the rights of commerce
and the peace of the world. Should they
be obtained, it will be through no grasping
spirit, but with a view to obvious national
interest', and security, and in a manner
entirely consistent with the strictest obser
vance of national faith. No act within the
legitimate scope of the President's constitu
tional control, will be tolerated on the
i!art of any portion of our citizens, with can
-1101 challengon ready justification before
the tribunal Of !the civilized world.
great objects of our pursuits as a people are
e ; .: l e be elesined by veare, and with the
mi : Jrborinmr nations upon our continent, we
;with' cultivate kindly and fraternal rela
tions. We have nothing to do with the
erat tumults, and anxieties of the compli
cated systems' or European governments,
flit in commercial matters we have a right
to expect, and shall under nil circumstances
quire prompt reel procit y. The American'
ni je.t realize that upon every sea and every
,titt. where our enterprise ,may rightfully
eelt the protection of our flag, American
citiz•-nship is an inviolable panoply for the
security of American rights, And, in this
connection, it can hardly he necessary to re
affirm a principle which should now he re
ardrd as fundamental. The rights. secu
rity, ;.nd repose, of this Confederacy reject
the idea of noel forence or colonization. rn
this side of the ocean, by an foreign power,
beyond present jurisdiction as utterly inad
missible. The maintenance of large stand
ing armies' in our country, would not only
be dangerous but unnecessary; and a na
tional militia may be readily formed, with a
• well-disciplined and efficient organization.
The Navy is complimented, and integritv,•
ability and economy in the public service
are earnestly inculcated. It is not to be ex
pected, says the President, that persons will
be retained in office, who are known to be•
under the influence of political hostility and
partisan prejudice. The Union is referred
to as the great ark of our national safety,
and with it the best and dearest hopes of
the President aro entwined. 1-le believes
that involuntary servitude, as it exists in dif
ferent States of this Confedracy, is recog
nized by the Constitution, and he will give
an unfaltering support to the Compromise
measures of 1850. The Address closes with
an appeal to the Divine protection, and with
the expression of a hope, that the kind Prov
idence which smiled upon our Fathers, may
enable their children to preserve the bles
sings which they•have inherited. In brief
then, General Pierce feels the responsibility
of his [million, but will not shrink from it.
He is not appalled by accessions of territory,
and believes that the acquisition of certain
posessions, not within our jurisdiction.—
(Cuba,'Soc., we may refer) are essential to
the extension of commerce, and the peace
of the world. Nevertheless. he will toler
ate no illegal act of annexation., The Mon
roe doctrine is malformed, and it is pro.: .
flounced a fundamental principle. All in
terferanCe or colonizations on this side of the
ocean by. arty foreign power, beyound pros
ant jurisdiction, is utterly, inadmissible.—
With regarded to public office, partisans
will not be retained, but fidelity and capaci
ty will be looked to in incumbents. The
Union is eulogized, the compromise is en
dorsed, and slavery is regarded as recog
nized by the Constitution. Wo repeat, the
Message has evidently been prepared with
great deliberation, and is not without merit
as a literary composition.

The Retiring President.
The• New York Commercial Advertiser,
commenting on the circumstances in which
the President elect takes charge of the helm
of the National Administration, remarks:
"But while we thus admit that something
of the improvement in public affairs may be
justly attributed to the course so honorably
pursued by the President elect, to the pres
ent Administration belongs the honor of
having brought our foreign policy forth from
the gloom that encompassed it, and leaving
it to their, successors without a single serious
dificulty or embarrassment. Considering all
the circumstances of Mr. Fillinore's Admin
istration-the difficulties that were rife when
he assumed the Government, the_ political
hostility of Congress, and other impediments
which are -well known—it must be regarded
as one of ;he wisest, most brilliant the Union ,
has ever enjoyed. Political opponents may•
deny this, but the demonstration is before
the world. It has won the. confidence of for
eign powers so far that, while maintaining
- u nta rn is h ed - t he - no ti ono 1 - fron or; - 1
-ranged-the-most-delitate-questions-with-a
proud and ancient monarchy of continental
Europe difficult and intricate questions
with Great Britain, and is able to leave to
its successor propositions from the English
government of a liberal and pacific character,
such as that government probably never
before made to aw power on the face of
the earth.
Mr. Fillmore and his Cabinet wilt retire
from office leaving both the domestic and
foreign affairs of the country in far better
condition than when they took office ; with
negotiations on foot which, had they had
time to complete them, would have added
imperishable renown . ; and they will leave
to M r. Pierce and his Cabinet an inheritance,
of national prdSperity and national honor and
inflUence such as perhaps no administration
ever entered upon."
The Caloric Ship.
Wo publish this week a communication
of the Secretary of the Navy to the chairman
of the Navy Committee in the House of Rep
resentatives, recommending the passage of
a resolution directing the Department to con
tract with Captain Ericsson fur the construc
tion of I caloric frigate of 2,000 tons burden.
It has been objected, and with justice to
many of our public functionaries, that they
have been reluctant to adopt new improve
ments, and failed to keep up with the pro
gressive spirit of the age. They opposed the
introduction of steam into the naval service.
Swam introduced, they adhered to paddle
wheels instead of prOpellers, and that too at a
time when it Was admitted by the leading
maritime powers of the world that the screw
was aitogether the best instrument of propul
sion for ships of war. These notorious facts
give color to the charges that have been hith
erto made against the Navy Depart merit,
but we trust that the advent of Young
America may loan gurate a new era of en
couragement and — development to science
and invent inn.
Though it will be reserved for the admin
istration of General Pierce to carry out the
ohjecrof the resolution recommended by Mr.
Kennedy, we cannot withhold from that gio:-
tlentan the praise which he is justly entitled
for the Interest which he has uniformly ma
nifested in this great enterprise of Captain
Ericsson, the sagacity with which he has re
cognised its triumphant success, and the
manly and liberal spirit in which he has as
sumed the responsibility of recommending
it to the immediate attention •-gfioryi-ress.
In so doing he has not anticipated the pres
tige which must result to the incoming ad
ministration from at once adopting the new
Motor in the naval service, but has merely
sought to prepare the way by which his suc
cessors map co-operate with the inventor in
exhibiting his great improvement to the

The First Settlement of Savannah.
Saturday was the anniversary of the settle
ment of Savannah, and observed incidentally
it not intentionally, by the military and we
think ought to have been celebrated by the
citizens generally. The occasion is one
which ought to be remembered by the aged
and impreepeed upon the young.
The expedition under Gen. Oglethorpe
and the Rev. Mr. Herbert, consisted of one
hundred and fourteen persons,and embarked
on board the ship Anna, on the 16th of
Nov. 1732. On the 20th of January follow
ing they arrived at Beaufort, South Caro
lina, where they soon obtained temporary
lodgings in the now barracks. Oglethorpe
immediately proceeded South to select,a pro
per site for the colony. • On the first of
February Old Style, the colonists reached
Yamacraw Blufl and pitched their tents.
They were ten days engaged •to disern
barking. The first house was commenced
on the evening of the oth, and Oglethorpe
wrote his first letter to the Trustees on the
-10th.—Allowing for-t he-d ifierenmbetw_een:
-the-Old-and-New Style, the 12th — of — Feb
may properly be regarded as the anniversa
ry of the settlement of Georgia.
The occasion naturally gives rise to more
appropiate reflections. One hundred and
twenty years ago our ancestors first planted
their feet upon the sands of the new world.
They were humble men and women : "such
'as were in decayed circumstances, and
thereby disabled from following any busi
ness in England, and who if in debt, had
leave from their creditors to ; and such
as were recommended by their creditors to
Ministers, Church Wardens, and Overseers
of their respective parishes." They were
poor, but they were honest. They brought
with them no high sounding titles-;no claims
to aristocratic pretention, The forest was
before them, and they were the architects
of there own fortunes.
A century and a quarter hayc not yet clap.
sed and yet what a change has taken place.
Then countless tribes of savages held domi
nion over the mountains and ‘talleys.
Now, not one of the Aborigines remain
within our borders. The last red man
in Georgia was a fireman on the first locom
otive that went dashing into the mountains
of the Cherokee. The forest have fallen
beneath the steudly blows of the new race,
and Georgia now furnishes one sixth of the
raw material which clothes the world, and
has a taxable property valued: at four hun
dred millions of dollars.
Incident in the Rocky Mountains,
Uu on' occasion while J. Wesley Jones,
with it few of his artist companions, were
f.topping in the. rear of their main company
for the purpose'of duguerreotyping, for his
Pantoscope some "remarkable strange rocks,
a war party of Indians suddenly sprang
from behind the rocks, and, giving a fright
full yell, advanced with lance poised, ready
for battle, when the artist, with great cool
ness, turned upon them his camera, and,
somewhat mystically waving, over the instru
ment the black cloths in which his pictures
were wrapped, held his lighted cigar in some
what frightful proximity to the instrument.
savaffes hail herd strang stories of"thun
der on wheels,' which had, in one terrific
burst, swept away whole patties of red skins.
Panic stricken, they paused a moment, then
v•.eri.d to the right, with eye fixed upon the
dreaded instrument.
But the strange mortar followed them :
its dangerous point ever Ic•-eping them in di
rect line. Pop ! pop ! pop ! went a revolver
from beneath the instrument ! This was hut
the prelude of the death- waging storm about
to burst upon them ! They could not longer
stand this, but with a simultaneous yell broke
away, towards the rocks. Bang ! bang !
went the artists' guns after them. Strange.
terrific sounds were reverberated - through
the mountain gorges and echoed back by the
cavernous rocks—yells and shrieks, and
rumbling thunders. The smoke cleared
away, and the artists were alone. No time
was lost in r, joining the caravan ; and, the
danger beino over, it became often the sub
ject .of merriment around the cutup-fires.
Discovery of Valuable Silver Mines.
It is stated that great excitement Inis been
created it the towns on the Rio Grande,
opposite El Paso, by the discovery Of some
very valuable silver mines, on the eastern
slope of the mountains, about sixty mile's
northeast of DontniAna. The ore, according
to the reports, is found in immense quanti
ties directly on the surface of the ground,
and several tons of it have already been
gathered. The Houston Telegraph says :
"One mine is so rich that the silver is ex
tracted readily, by melting it with a common
fog-fire of pine. Lead ore is also fouttd in
extensive veins traversing the rocks in e very
direction. We are informed that thousands
of tons of lead ore, similar to that obtained
at the. lead mines near Galena, can be gather
ed on the surface of the. ground on the
mountains east of El - Paso. There is a
large hill near the silver mines, that might
with propriety be styled the lead mountain,
as it seems to be an immense mass of galena
or lead ore. If wo may believe the accounts
of persons who have visited these mines,
they must be far more extensive and valuable
than the mines in Illinois or Wisconsin. .
Anthracite Coal as Fuel.
- The use of Anthracite coal as a fuel for
locomotives seems to be thoroughly tested
upon the Reading Railroad, with the most
perfect success. G. A. Nicolls, Esq., the
Engineer and Superintendent, in his report
to the Managers, says :
"Our experience of the engines construct
ed for using Anthrilcitb coal exclusively
as their fuel, are performing trips with regu
larity. The Illinois and Michigan, built
during the year after Mr. Milh'olland's
patent for passenger engines, use Anthracite
altogether ; and, with this fuel, are now run
ning their trains as rapidly and efficiently
as any wood engine on. the road.
I consider that the most serious difficulties
which haveleretefore prevented the use of
Anthracite coal as fuel for locomotives, have
been overcome, and that this fuel is destined
to supercede wood in locomotives,
Cutting Cornfodder.
Enos Smedley, of Chester county, and of
many years' experience as a dairyman, in
forms us of his great success the present win
ter in keeping his cows on cornfodder, cut
and crushed by horse-power and machine-
His plan is to cut ofl a foot or eighteen in
ches of the buts before putting it through
the machine. This is worked on the barn
floor, With a one horse power ; and the cut
fodder discharged through a funnel into the
entry below, contiguous to the cow stables.
Here it is emptied into a large box made
for the purpose. and holding about 34 bushel
baskets full; This is well mixed •up with
an equal number of quarts of meal, and the
whole slightly moistened. He has 24 cows
fastened up in separate stalls, and one bushel
heaped up, is found sufficient for a cow at a
a feed and they are fed twice a day, eating
jt up clean. Under this management they
are imprcoving finely, and wintering us well
as they usually do on Lilo best hay.
One sheat of fodder cut up, making two

malliTi„,o.2l cents per weeks. Sixteen quarts
of meal per week for each cow is worth 32
cents. Total for keeping of cows each, per
week, 53 cents This is cheap wintering
and a strong illustration of the great advan
tages of cutting food for stock. Such evid
ence of what has been done, is worth pages
Of theory in convincing farmers of the great
loss they sustain in feeding hay and fodder
uncut. Not only will one-half or two-thirds
in quantity be sufficient, but there is a groat
saving in respect to waste. Those of us who
have been used to feeding cattle in barnyards
out of cribs, know that not less than about
one sheaf to each animal is a sufficient al
lowance, and that when eithercornfodder or
hay is fed whole, a considerable portion is
dragged out over the yard and lost. Ilay
is now worth from SlB to $25 per ton, and
by this Pfau of feeding Cornfodder, a saving
olsoine tons and the price of several ma
chines may be effected in one winter. We
have found, in our own experience, that
when cornfodder is fed, merely cut, without
crushing n very considerable amount it left
uneaten. The sharp and tough edges of
the stalk do not admit of proper mastication,
and, indeed is apt to make sore inonth.s.
The machine used by Enos Smedley is

Portable Gas.
GAS has been acknowledged, from the
time of its first introduction,to be the best ma
terial. for light, its use being attended with no
dangetor trouble. But to bring it to the con
sumers by miles of conducting pipes and
meters, makes it an article of luxury only
attainable by a part of the community in
large cities, who reside within the range of
the main pipes. And even then, its high
price exceeds all other burning material ;
and the greater part of the citizens cannot
enjoy the benefit of gas light even by pay
ing any price, not to mention the many acci
dents whith happen by the use of turpentine
and alcohol. light. If the great expense of
miles of main pipes could be avoided, gas
would not cost half the price it now does.
Every man would burn it : and it would be
promotive of family happiness, as the spirit
of education and science has reached almost
every house. The wife would enjoy the'
company of her husband, and be entertained

every corner 'night be occupied by children
learning their lessons ; ladies at the piano
would not dispense with a gas light, if once

light, at the cost of half a cent an evening.
To effect this, gas must he made portable.
Experiments have been made to 'compress
it from 1:3 to I part in- volume, but it was
found impossible to regulate the pressure,
and was very dangerous on account of the
liability to explosion net by a far safer and
more simple apparatus in every consumer's
roller—a tub with water, a tin or sheet iron
kettle, 10 or 13 feet of pipe, and a burner
in the lower story put up in a proper man

Truly thankful for the liberal patronage
heretofore extended to him by his friends,
and a generous public, requests a continu
ance of that patronage from them and that
they should now call, and examine the most
11-3 m
extensive stock of
A Y HATS, GAPS AND. FURS,
1 ---.;;, that has ever been
.brought to the
• public, at his established and lately
refitted Hat Emporium, No. 14, Wilson's
Row, East Hamilton street.
He has just returned from the
. City of
Philadelphia with the new spring' style of
Hats and Caps of all kinds .and varieties.
The people of this neighborhood, have
found it expensive to go to the great neigh
boring cities. Hereafter, to think them
selves in either of them, will be very cheap.
They will merely have to call into the above
mentioned Hat store, observe the late im
provements, and hear of the uncommonly
low price, when at once, their imagination
will impress them with the belief that they
stand in one of the best and cheapest Hat
stores of Net York'or Philadelphia.
Call, see. examine, judge, inspect, choose,
price, and buy for yourselves., •
TO HUNTERS.—Highest cash prices
paid for all kind of furs.
