The Inaugural.
We received this document by telegraph on Thurs
day evening last and issued it the following morn
ing in extra form. We also sent it to the prin-
cpal Post Offices, but owing to the bad roads andt
irregularity Of the mails we fear very few Of the
numbers thus sent reached their places OF destina-
ten in such season as we wished.
The Inaugural is brief but manly outline of the
course Gen. TAYLOR intends topursue as President
of these United states. Our contemporary, having
other fault to Gnd with it. pronounces it non-cem-
INITIAL but wherein is so, he does not inform his
readers. We cannot discover any non-committal.

RUSSELL ON (Loco Toco) cRiMEs.-We have been
looking on as silent spectator at the dciectable
quarrel that has been progressing among some of
the editors Of the loco foco papers in this state
since the adjournment of the Legislature. The cd
itor OF the Keokuk Dispatch told some tales out OF
school, which were very unpalatahle to the editors
Of the Capital Reporter. The latter counted them
selves the champions of the Legislature. We have
thought they did this in consequences OF the favor
conferred ON them in making them state Printers.
and that this favor was onlu granted through cer-
tain compromises affecting almost every important
measure OF the Legislature from the choice OF SEN
ators and Judges to the Acknowledgement Of Potta
wsss.mle county. we nave more than limited this
oefore. TO secure the State printing it seems, BY
the spatcn' editors ofthc Reporter thought
necessary 70 the accomplishment Of their plans,
:" make sacrifice OF Russell, and 1t is this which
causes the editor OF the Dispatch to complain. Rus
