INAUGURAL ADDRESS
DELIVERED By

GENERAL ANDREW JACKSON,
On being sworn into Office as President Of
ofthe United States, on the 9TH Of March,
1929.
FELLow-CITIzENs About 10 undertak,
the arduous duties that have been appoint
ned to perform, by the choice OF free people.
n avail myself Of this customary and solemn
occasion, to express the gratitude which
theircohhdence inspires, and 10 acknowledge
the accountability which my situation en-
joins. While the magnitude of their inter
ests convinces one that no thanks can be ad.
equate to the honor thy have conferred, il
admonlshes me that the best return l can
make, is the jealous dedication of my shum-
Bile abilities 10 their service and their good.
AS the instrument Of the Federal Consti-
tuition, it will devolve on me, for a stated
period. to execute the laws ofthe u. States;
to superintend their foreign and their con-
federate relations; to manage their revenue;
to command their forces; and BY commune
cations to the Legislature. To watch over
and to promote their interests generally.
And the principles of action BY Which |
shall endeavour to accomplish this circle Of
duties, 1t is now proper for me briefly to ex.
plain.
In administering the laws Of Congress. l
shall keep steadily in view the Limitations
as well as the extent ofthe Executive p8W-
er,trusting thereby 10 discharge the functions
OF my Office without transcending its author.

study to preserve peace, and 60 cultivate
friendship on fair and honorable terms; and

may exist or arise. 70 es.bitthe goss.' saf al..s

In such measures as l may be called on to
pursue, in regard TO the rights Of the sena-
rate States, hope to be animated hy n pron.
err respect for those sovereign members Of
our Union; taking care NOT to confouud the
powers they have reserved to themselves,
with those they have granted to the coufed.
eracy.
The management of the public revenue
that searching operation in all governments
lis among the most delicate and important
trusts in ours; and 1t will of course demand
no iDconsiderable share of my official solicit
tude. Under every aspect in which il can
be considered, Il would appear that advan
tage must result from the observance of a
strict and faithful economy. This shall aim
at the more anxiously, both because it will
facilitate the extinguishment Of the nation
al debt--thr unnecessary duration Of which
is incompatible with real Independence
and because il will countpract that ten
dency to public and private profligacy
which profuse expenditure of money by
the Government, is too apt to engender.,
Powerful auxiliaries to the attainment of this
desirable end, are to be found in the regu
lations provided by the wisdom Of Congress.

pointed in their expectations in this partic-

that one will arrive 10 time For attending to

therefore think proper to assure those who
may wish to engage in the business of rea-
