ABUSE OF TIE PRESIDENT.

The Union daily INDUCES in the lowest and
most scurrilouS abuse of Gen. TAYLOR, and, as if
its junior editor, (for its senior rarely writes now,
was not competent TO the task of blackguardism,
1t has a hlrellng correspondent, who, under the
signature of"Heroic Age" comes to his assist
ance thrice a week. The readers of the editorials
might suppose it were a work OF supererogation
to contribute to the defamation of a patriot and
soldier, who has illustrated the annals of his coun-
try by his military achievements and who now,
Ivy the ~sutfrages of his countrymen, occupies the
highest office in their gilt. However this may
be, Heroic Age shows himself not inferior in
scurrility to Bundlecund himself. Witness the
following:
"Nell. the old thunler-spliter in rimstone-colore
inexpresslbles and green shoes, has returned from his
grand tour, and strange 20 say. his disorder. though aba
tiny, still continues, Notwithstanding on his way home
he ate, at a meal, twelve ears of green corn and a pound
OF bacon and collards, besides moistening the whole with
a little 81 cent w~hiskey. The cabinet though naturally
weakley and inclined TO stcel, are as comfortable as they
expected to be when they accepted the regency and act d
alone:'

cnlated to elevate It's hero in The estimation OF the people.
For ourselves, we can imagine nothing more ridiculous
than the spectacle OF n Chief Magistrate riding through
the country. his squat form hedecked with wreaths and
gold lace, like a prize OK, his bowels in disorder. his head
hardly less confused, receiving the kisses OF his deputy
postmasters' wives and daughters, and showing by his
crude and ~nndlgesled fragments of speech, and the fire.

1t might be supposed that the editors of these
papers know best the taste of their readers, but
we should be 10th to think 50 ill of the majority
OF the Democrats Of the country, as to suppose
they would not be disguised with such language.

Compare the election Of chief magistrate

Compare the election Of chief magistrate
in this country with the bloody revolutions
in Europe. There, the voice Of the nation
is heard amid the dim Of arms and domestic
conflict. Here, in our own favored land,
under the genius Of our institutions, the will
of the nation is expressed by free sufirages,
and all bow in obedience to the decree Of
the majority. And the last administration
quietly yields its power, and retires.
congratulate you, Senators, on the fire.

on the floor of the Senate began to laugh,
and ha ha has were heard in every di-
rection. Mr.. Smith himself joined in laugh
ter, which was soon suppressed by calls to
order, and Misses.
In short time, however, the President
elect did enter, accompanied BY ex-Presi-
dent Polk, and these two gentlemen then
took seats in front Of the clerk. All eyes
were turned in that direction, particularly
towards Gen. Taylor. The United States
Marshal came in, followed by the Justices
Of the Supreme Court The procession was
then formed, in the order mentioned in the
programme, and removed from the Chamber.
THE PRESIDENT DELIVERING HIS iSAuGu-
RAJ.
About halfpast IL O'Clock the President,
the Er-President, the Vice President, Ex-
Vice Presidents Dallas and r. M. Johnson
appeared on the platform in front of the
east portico Of the Capitol. The Presidents
appearance was saluted by the cheers Of the
multitude in front, which could not have
numbered less than ten thousand people.
General Taylor arose, and delivered his
Inaugural Address. The reading did not
occupy over fifteen minutes.
There was loud and long continued cheer
ing, and cannon were fired; during which
the oath Of office was administered by Chief
Justice fancy.
THE RETURN OF THE PRESIDENT.
The President Immediately after returned
to his barouche. In passing he received the
blessings Of many ladies who had assembled
at the north door Of the Capitol to see him,
and he acknowledged them with more than
ordinary gratitude, SO full Of JUNCTION did
they fall on his ear
At the White House he shook hands
with some 5000 ladies', contenting himself
with bowling to the men.
