The State t'upitol Alive With dubs, Baml* uml ThoutfniidM ot Visitors, HARKISHURO, Jan. 15—At high noon General Hustings was inducted int/» the highest office within the gift of the people of Pennsylvania and the ceremonies incident to his inauguration were interesting and impressive. Surrounded by the law making and judicial branches of the state government, prominent men in all walks of life and citizens of all classes, he took tbe oath of office and delivered an address which is characteristic in its forceful, succinct and eloquent presentation of those matters which occured to the new governor to bo proper to discuss at the out set of his administration. GSNF.RAL D. 11. HASTINGS. The inaugural ceremonies look pl:ice on the decorated platform at the west portico of the capitol at high noon and were very brief. After a patriotic select ion by a band, Hev. William A. llouck, of Hazkton, former pastor of the Bellefonte Meth odist church, of which Governor Hastings is a member, offered prayer. Chiaf Clerk Suiiley, of the senate, then read the certificate of Goveror Hastings' election, and Chief Juslice Sterrctt, of the supreme court, ad ministered the oath of oflice. This was followed by the governor's salute by bnttery C, and after more music Governor Hastings stepped to the front and delivered the inaugural nd dress Lack of space prevents our giving the address in full. Among other things Ihe governor said : "Our constitution requires that the chief executive of the commonwealth '"shall lake care that the laws he faithfully executed." Having beon entrusted bv the people of Fennsyl van.a with the administration of that otlice for the next four years, I have in your presence taken upon myself the prcs ribed oath of otlice. Pro foundly impressed with the responsi bility of the n?w relation which I sustain to all the people of the com monwealth, I ask help in the performance of mv duties, while I will constantly rely upon the Su preme Ruler for strength and guid ance. nndmindful of the unpreced ented vote of confidence given by the electors. T should be guilty of insin cerity if I did not now express my great appreciation of the unusual ho ior and I should be lacking in the qualities that belong to manly gratis tude if this did not strengthen every purpose of mind and heart to the end that the confidence prove not to be misplaced. At the same lime I fully recognize the truth that honest differences of judgement on public questions and candidates constitute on« of the essential safeguards of fr«; nment, and d rnand of the Buccessfn' competitor that nnquaH fi«d recognition of the con<titul ional and lep»l rights oT every citizen wkich is above partisanship. The people of the state and of the c untry are now bappi'y emerging from a period of financial and indus*- trial embarrassment which has wought prrcat injury mid distress ran ng all brarc'ies of i dnstry and employment.. Two political revolu tions have t»ken place within two year* that severely tested the stabile itv of t >e form of government under which wc . live. Fiom both, the country has come forth stronger and grander, and the people with more oonfidercin the future of our politic cal institutions. I venture the opinion and the bop® that, with returning confidence as to the future, we are gradually •nterinp upon a period of encourag ing and healthful business restora-. (ion. With this thought iu view, the tread of our legislation should l»o in sympathy with every effort lookin r to the advancement of all the industrial, material and eommer'i d interests within the borders of the btate. While the question of the reaeeful settlement of contentions between organised labor and capital is almost as old as organized society, yet the subject is more important and mo mentous now than ever before, Recent experience in this country indicate s that public sentiment and matured judgem«nt result n ; from knowledge of the l'ncts have a liform ly been the best nnd roost powerful arbiters of such disputes. But. public sentiment operates after the fact, and is rarely a preventive. If the general public could be fully in formed of the facts and merits of the disputes that bring about strikes and infractions of law, before ihe parties reach a belligerent attitude, public sentiment would generally guide the way to peaceful and just settlement. Pennsylvania's proud history, her great resources and unfolding wealth and the intelligence and patriotism of her citizens, call upon her chosen servants to sustain, uphold and ad vance her imperial position in the nation. To that en J your executive calls upon you to uphold bis arm, to strengthen his purpose, to guide aright his judgement and to unite with him in humble and constant reliance upon the Supreme Kuler of states and nations." Family Gathering. SHUNK, SULLIVAN CO —The fam ily gathering at M. Williams, on Christmas day (which was the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage) pass ed off very pleasantly. There were not as many present as were expect ed, on account of the severity of the weather, but thotie that were there seemed to enjoy themselves. The following sketch wns written and read by a grand daughter: "Fifty years ago to-day at her father's house in Troy township, in the presence of friends and relatives, a young girl gave her hand in mar riage to the choice of her heart. They then started amidst the sound of the merry sii-igh bells for a pleas ant ride to the city of Eluiira. They shortly moved to Wyoming county, to stnrt their new life near the banks of tlie Susquehiinu:!. In a couple of years a fair young life was given to their keeping, but only for a few short weeks when it was called to bloom in paradise. It was very hard for the young parents to part . with their darling girl. Within the I next two years a son was bcrii to them, how fond the father of his little boy. During this time they lived in a number of different places, as the husband worked in saw mills. Two years latter they moved to Blakely, in Luzerne county (now Lackawanna) where a daughter was born to them. They passed through some hardships from different causes , they were not sick and knew what poverty meant. After ten years of 3 married life spent in Wyoming Co., , and Luzerne they made up their , minds to try the fur Went, but when a ihey reached Elinira the mother I wished to see her parents before proceeding farther. On reaching her childhood home, her parents ' persuaded them to remain near them [* so they settled down within a short distance of her old home, where they J sent their children to school. When ■ the little girl was nine years old the ( mother was called to the bedside of . her brother's dying wife, who left. [. three motherless girls, the eldest 1 eight years and the youngest but five days old; she took them into her ' family and was as a mother to them [ for seven years, and the baby, until . her marriage. Lo! what is this ? ' ihe sound of carnage in our land ; [ which called many of the fathers and sons of our country to the field of battle, away then went the father of the motherless babes, next she ' bids adieu to the companion of her ; life and sees him go forth to join the soldiers fighting for their country. , she wns left to take care of her fami . ly as best she could; her son was now fourteen, and large enough to help his mother carry on the work of the farm. As they were now liv ing on the old homestead, her pnr i ents being aged and needing some , one there, their choice fell on them to be the stay of their old age. 'I itue passed on ; one day while at dinner, who should open the door, but the long absent husband and father ; what a joyous meeting, ex cept for the thought that he had re turned for only a few short weeks, when he must return to duty. When he went, their son went too, for the far distant Carolina?; but the Lord watched over them there, ns will as the ones remainirg at home, and the years soon passed, that again saw peace in our happy land. Two years later, her mother was called to the golden shore; her father remain ed with them five years longer. In the menu time their son had married and had two little sons that were the joy of their grand paren ia at that time, for they were bright little boys. The aged grandfather loved the eldest one very deaily but did not ,ivpt " know """eh of the other one. Time passes on and her two girls leave for homes of their own. After this llicy removed to their present mountain home, at which they are living in their old age, with 5..1U0 of their grand children around thein, most of ihe time. They have two grandsons, nino granddaughters and the niece they brought up, has two sons and two daughters." GBAOIB. Have you read Philadelphia TIMES This morning. ?
