''IHc Maugura! .3ddrese.--In com
pIiance with custom merely, we have en-
numbered our columns with Gcn. Harri-
sons Inaugural Address upon being sworn
into office. We are not disappointed at
It's conlents-thcy are characteristic Of the
man. Ignorance, Il desire for display,
and fear Of committing himself by an
open avowal of his opinions, are conspic-
uous throughout. 1t also exhibits most
wretched taste; love Of tinsel ornament,
a school-boy fondness for classical alu-
sion. great poverty Of thought and diu-
siveness of style, are its prevailing traits.
|. is well calculated to expose its author
to ridicule, and to bring the nation into
contempt.
among its innumerablc blunders and
misStatements, its author makes Julius
Cesar the first of the Roman Emperors,
asserts tina! none of the six first Presi.
dents vetoed bill except for constitutions
al objections, ana that no Republic even
terminated in an aris,ocracy. s.
but the Address is much more re-
m,rkablc for what it oneita than for what
it says. Notwithstanding all the LOUD
ranting of the Wings about the 'extrava.
gance of the Government during the Adj
ministration of Mr. Van Buren, it is Ut
tcrly silent as to economy or retrenci.,
ment. No remedy is proposed for the
arrangement of the currency; nothing
said concerning the establishment of {
National Bank, or the repeal of the oaiou
Sub-Ireasury.
SIN fact, any one who reads it with 4
hope of getting even a glimpse of the ia.
ture policy Of the Government, VIII b
wofuIly disappointed. Shakespeare dcs.
cribes it most graphically in the follow
ing lines:
'''Gratano speaks III infinite deal OF
nothing, more than any man in all Ven
ice; his reasons are as two grams OF
wheat hid in two bushels of chaf'; YOU
shall seek all day ere you find them; and,
when you have them, they are not worth
the search "

.rreasurv Upon the propriety OF a

Treasury Upon the propriety OF 4
President serving but one term, he is
clear; upon the subject of the veto power,
uncertain /; upon the subject of Abolition,
temperate and upon the question of ouI
foreign relations, tame and spiritless,
He is open and candid where it is unim-
portant, doubtful. when he should be de-
cided, mild, when he should be stern,
and weak where strength and determine
ton are required"
The editor of the Philadelphia Spirit # the
Times thus concludes an article in relation to the
Inaugural:
"When we were little boy at school,
our teacher used to inquire of us, in criti-
cally surveying our first essays, if such
and such part might not readily be APP
piled with as much effect to any other
topic Upon the reply depended the To-
gical character of our production. Sup
pose we apply the same honest test of
utility to the inaugural address Of Presi-
dent Harrison-alas how extremely III
significant would become its great prcten-
sions. Nine-tenths of the whole docu-
ment if separated from its context, might
be introduced into dissertation upon
almost any other subject with equal pro-
priety. Such is its vagucness, and want
of conference, that with very little trouble
it might be handsomely incorporated into
a tolerablo lecture OH the Progress of So
ciety, or 4 Fourth of July Grafton. To
conclude, we are pretty well satisfied it
was written by the new President him
self for we have a better opinion Of the
intellectual caibre of most Of his advisers
than to suppose them capable of conf
ding to the press so glazing mass Of
puerile inanity, egotism and unmiligated
twaddle.'

"Witli the exception of few unfoitun-
ate expressions, thrown out in passing
upon this vitality important subject, the
currency, the new President keeps ST.
fence on all the great topics Of national
policy. He says not a word about the
contested frontier between Maine and the
British possessions, not word about the
Mcleod affair. He alludes, ii is true, to
his want Of knowledge as to the state OF
pending negotiations /; but certainly there
ale principles obviously involved in them,
which are permanent and inviolablc, and
upon these, whatever may be the facts,
his opinions would be full of interest In
full view Of the dangers which threaten
the U. s., and which for month past
have directed the attention of every man
i'll and out of Congress 10 the necessities
of national defence, the new President
says not a word on the subject Of defence,
