SANTA ANNAs INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
Genrral Ordcr-No. so.

SenoreS DcpHtiGS;--l have just taken the oath
which the law prescribes, and in doing so, ought
TO accompany il with a manifestation of my sem
limenls, and the motives of my conduct to this
respectable committee of the legislative body.
The events which have taken place in the ca
pital are known, and are Of such character as to
bind Inc to give them a speedy and pacific tcrm-
nation. Surrounded by difficulties of all kinds,
interested in what is the most important and os-
senlal for the whole nation, as is the sustaining
Of a strong and decided struggle with foreign
power, in which nothing less is involved than the
existence of the nation, it would be the least of
evils to enter into a contest with those who ought
to unite in ropcIIing the common enemy. These
discords ought to disappcarat the imperious voice
of patriotism which calls upon the sons of the
country TO have but one will and aim. The mo-
monts have been urgent have seen the for
ward steps ofthe enemy have rushed to the
field to repel him, and even al the moment of do
ing so, have been forced to leave brave and
victorious army, and come hilher to assume u
power which have repeatedly said was repug.
nant TO my feelings, and whlSh | had decided
never TO undertake.
That which has been and ought to be an OBJ.
ect of aspiration and desire, is for an enormous
sacrifice.
om all for my country, and ever shall serve
it, without thinking what it may cost me to do
that which the nation desires should do.
have entered upon the Supreme MOgislracy be-
cause have seen that it was the sole legal means
OF terminating the disturbances ofthe capital, and
because believe shall thus be able to facilitate
the prosecution of the war, and to save the inde-
pondenco and honor of Mexico, which wish to
present unsulI cd and brilliant to the world which
is beholding us.
have before me the committee of the Sow
ereign Congress of that august body, whose doc
trnes have respected and continue to respect
Its decision will be my invariabe guide, and
have firmly resolved to preserve a pure union
with the legislative body, which union will give
us final victory and the re-estabishment of in
ternal peace--on which the happiness of our
country depends, and to which we all aspire
The na,ion has proclaimed the political princi-
Piles which ought TO be the basis Of the admins
lralion which wish to establish.
Thus understand that It's strength will be Sc
cured for defending itself, and its rights for which
its sons have those guarantees which belong to
all men, g. which civilization claims, and which
has been my aim, since my return TO the country.
This will not be denied, land the nation shall still
see me obedient to its wishes without my having
any other rule of conduct than its decisions. As
a Mexican and a soldier shall always take the
same road as the nation, and aspire TO no other
title than that Of good citizen, and In speaking
of me that it should be said that | always loved
my country-that served it with zeal, and that
! sacrificed myself for its good.

There is one important feature Of this table,
that il is the only article except wool, the export
Of which is continually increasing. 1t may be
set down, as almost an assured fact, that its ex-
pori TO foreign countries will in future uniformly
ncrease;-irom the fact, that animals are raised
IN this country so very much cheaper than in
Europe. The proportional profit on them must
be much greater, because il is cheaper by far, to
export barrel Of beef or pork, than it is 10 ex-
port the corn, by which it is produced.
The above table does not comprehend the en-
tire export About $4,000 faued cattle are driv.
en- out of the State. Mr.. Semour Renick states
TO the Board of Agriculture, that about 1000
catIle were fattened in Pickaway county. The
total value of cattle, on hoof and in barrels, with
talow, &C., exported from this State, tails but Int
tie short of million and half Of dollars.
4. EXPORT OF WOOL.
The statistics produced by the tax officers Of
1916, presented remarkable fact in regard to
wool growing in Ohio. This fact is, that from
1910 to 1876, the number of sheep had nearly
doubled! Strange as this is, it is nevertheless
true. The cause of il is, beyond all doubt, The
increase, in that time, Of American woollen man
ulactures, and consequently the creation of a
steady, equable market, at fair prices, for Amer
ican wool. Ohio is the third SaIe in the Union
for sleep. We give here the number in some OF

THE LoAN.--Of the loan of eighteen millions
recently ordered by the Government, Corcoran
and Riggs, of Washington, Obtained fourteen
millions and seven hundred thousand dollars at
one-eighih of one per cent advance. Elisha
Riggs, of New York, obtained one million four
hundred thousand dollars at the same rate. Of
the remaining sum--ninctcen hundred thousand
doIlars-about two hundred thousand dollars
were taken at Washington, al about quarter Of
one per cent advance. The rest is scattered
among individuals, trustees, &C., at quarter,
halt, and one, and even two per cent. The pre-
MUM does not average half of one per cent, nor
even quarer.-Cler. Her.

The vast difference between the exports of
brcadstuilS in l845, and 1916, is not an error
Its a real difference. The exports of the three
points Of Cleveland, Cincinnati and Toledo, a.
lone were, in 1916. increased 100000 barrels,
beyond the year l845. Nor was that difference
caused only by foreigndemand. Thegreat cause
was that the crop Of wheat in Ohio was very
much better in l846 than previously. The proof
of this is the testimony Of intelligent farmers in
various paris Of the State.
1t is supposed that considerably more than a
million acres were planted in 1916; and it is pro.
we'd that the average per acre was about tUen.
ty bushels. 1t is, therefore, probable that the
crop of Ohio wheat, in the last year, was more
Than 20,000,000 bushels. We have, in the First
Report of the State Board of Agricuitwists, pref
ty accurate returns of the wheat crop in five
counties, in as many different sections of the State.
We give them:

Five counties,


Tico only of these counties are in the wheat
producing region. There twenty more coun.
ties, whose avarage population isas great as these
The reader can see, at once, that our estimate of
the crop of S46 is rather underrated. OF the
capacity of the State Of Ohio to produce bread.
stuhs, we may state fact, which will give re.
aizing idea Of results, 10 those disposed to calcu.
late. OF the surface of Ohio, (all of which is
arable,) only about one-tweth part of the whole
is in the cultivation of wheat and Indian corn
The results of this are t,oenty millions of bushels
of wheat, and torty,fre millions of bushels of
corn. Suppose that One-third of the Stale were
reduced to arabic cultivation, what would be the
result In a good year, eighty millions of wheat,
and one hundred and eighty of corn! This would
feed tlOeipe millions of people, and haye to spare.
1t would feed Ireland, Scotland, and the present
population of Ohio, all put together! As to pro-
duce treble corp, only treble population is re-
qured, there would surplus food for six millions.
Reducing the barrelsof flour, exporledin in 1916,
to the average consumption Of human beings, it
appears that Ohio actually sent out bread
for one million and half of human beings.
We proceed now to an equally interesting sub
ject of inquiry:
2. EXPORT OF PORK AND LARD.

En,aasures IN two barrels and mounds.

his intention TO reside upon his estate, near Hun.

THERE'S Corn IN EGYPT.-As it was in the
days ofpatriarch Jacob, four thousand years ago,
so now Egypt is the granary of many nations.--
We often hear our people complain that land that
has been TILED for less than fifty years, even, is
worn out, exhausted, as ifsuch thing were pos.
sible with proper usage. The Nile that has an.
nually fortified Egypt for so many thousand
years, affords our farmers lesson that should
shame them into somethingl like imitation.
The last English papers contain accounts from
Cairo TO the 10th of February, which state that
the crops of Egypt for the present year exhibit
the most promising appearance. In some parts
of Lower Egypt the ear was beginning to form,
and the harvest it was thought, would be got in by
the month of March. Ofthe last years harvest,
there still remains in Egypt about 100000 ar.
debs (nearly 100000 bushels) of corn (grain)
of every species fit for exporation, which makes
the total amount of grain for this purpose, from
the harvest of 1916, 100000 ardebs (equiva.
lent to almost 100000 bushels.) A great mum
ber Of vessels had lately arrived in the port Of
Alexandria, and among them seventeen or eigh.
teen French taking in cargoes forMarseilles.--
The charge for freight had fallen.--Clev. Her.

Ono STATE FlNANcEs.-The state of our Fl.
nances at this time is more prosperous than they
have at any time since 1885. The Fund Com.
missions have already in New York in readiness
to pay the interest on our stock as it falls due,
upwards Of 100000. This has been placed
there, out ofthe regular income ofIhe State, un.
der Whig administrator. No loans have been
made 10 pay interest-nc stock sold at runous
discount or other properly sacrificed to satisfy
public creditors. These Locofoco plans Of meet
ing the demands on the Treasury have passed
out of use with the Locofocos.-- --Clev. Her.

1t must be observed, that the amount here sta
ted for 1876 is, by no means, the whole; for
in that time the Pennsylvania and Ohio Canal in
the counties of Trumbu and Columbiana has
been opened, and carried off large amounts of
wool, by way of Pittsburgh.
1t appears evident, hence, that in five years the
export of wool has increased eight fold! If the
woollen factories are able to sustain themselves,
there is no question that this will continue per-
manent article of export. 1t brings, at present,
about half million Of dollars into the State.
5. EXPORT OF WHISKEY.
Ohio being corn as we'll as a wheat growing
State, whiskey is a very large item of export

fall Of price in 1916. Ii will be seen, also. thai
the amount Of pork exported that year was great

Aggregate,

We believe the above, by no means, compre-
hends the whole export of Ohio tobacco, the a.
mount of which, arriving at the city Of Bati-
more, is already great. The counties in which
tobacco is chiefly grown, are Muskingum, Fair
field, Licking, Coshocton, Perry, Tuscarawas,
Guernsey, Belmont, Morgan, and Monroe. In
that part of the State, tobacco forms a very ex-
tensive branch of culture. The value of this
article. exported, must be worth more than half
a million of dollars.
We must omit, at the present time, the im3or-
tant exports of cheese, butter, pearl ashes, sale
ratus, corn, lumber, broom corn, horses, eggs and
fruit. These may be investigated at some future
time. We have exhibited enough Of this species
Of statistics to show, at least, one important truth,
that no State in the American Union will at all
compare with Ohio, in the production and export
of strictly Agricultural produce.
Such is the fertility of the soil of Ohio, and
the mildness of its climate, that it is difficult to
set bounds to its feeding capacity. Ii is this ca
paciy which has, in forty years, built up the ci-
ty of Cincinnati, aud the lorge and hourishing
towns of Dayton, Columbus, Cleveland, Chilli
cohe, GAINESVILLE, Portsmouth, Steuhenve and
various others; and which has created the foun-
dations of vast wealth--of great public improve
ment-of unsuied public credt-and which is
continually attracting the labors of the husband
man-the ingenuity of the artizan--the capital
and the omigrant of every people, at home and
abroad.

The value of this article Of export now amounts
to about 81 100000. 1t is difficult to say OhSrc
all of it goes; but great deal is sold on what is
called the coast of Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkan.
sas, &c. No small quantity of it reappears in
the shape of rum, French brandy, gin, MADEIRA
wine, &c. There are many persons who prefer
10 drink whskey mixed with certain proportions
of log-wood, sugar of lead, &C., which gives
variety of color and taste, and when seasoned
with foreign name, is, perhaps, more agreeable
than when served up in the plain homo-spun name
of corn whiskey.
6. EXPORT OF TOBACCO.
OF this article we can not give the comparative
table for several years, from some confusion in
