DEMONSTRATION. JoHNsoN's INAUGURAL. The
Nashville Union gives the following synopsis of the
views embodied in Gov Andrew Johnsons Inaugu-
raj Address
l. Gov johnson believes it the duty of the Dem
ocratic party at the present momentous crisis to
cur once more to first principles and conne the Gov
eminent within the ancient landmarks, as laid down
by Jefferson and the other great founders the Dem
ocratic party He insists upon strict construction
of the Federal Constitution, and appeal to the
States in all of doubtful power, for express
grant of such power, if deemed compatible with the
public interests.
g. He favors well regulated and judicious sys-
tenn of Internal improvements by the State, "intend
ed and calculated to give all reasonable facilities to
the Mechanical, Agricultural and Commercial pur-
, suits of the country"
8. On the important question of the power of the
Legislature to grant the right of way, through the
real estate of individuals to companies authorized to
construct works of internal improvements Gov
johnson suggests that, at an early day. some bound
airy should be fixed by the Judicial tribunals the
people themselves, and that such boundary, when
fixed should be the pub necessity and not the mere
assumption of pnabIic eonrenience
4. The education of the great mass of the people,
and the elevation and remuneration of the laborer
are subjects which have long engrossed Gov. John
sons attention and enlisted the best wishes of his
heart. In this paper these subjects are required to-
and enforced with eloquent ability.
5. On the subject ofthe Public Domain, Gov. John
son believes it should be consecrated to the high and
benefcent purpose of providing homes for the Peo-
pie. This policy would augment the national happi-
and wealth in time of peace, and in time of
it would raise up the only kind of standing army
which safely be relied upon and trusted in Re-
publican Government.

THE WORLD As 1T IS.

By N. W. BEcK
fne world is not as bad q world
AS some would like to make IT.
Though whether good or whether had
Depends on how we take It.
FOR II we fret and scold all day,
From dewy morn till even.
This world will ne'er afford to man
A foretaste here of Heaven.
The worlds in truth as good world
As e'er was known to any
Who have not seen another vet
And these are very many;
And if the men and women too.
Have plenty of employment,
Those surely must be hard to please
Who cannot find enjoyment.
This world Is quite clever world,
In rain or pleasant weather,
If people would but learn to live
In harmony together;
Nor seek to burst the kindly bond
By l0ge and peace cemenfed.
And learn the best of lessons YET.
To always be contented.
Then were the, world pleasant world.
And pleasant folks were in it,
The day would pass most pleasantly
To those who thus begin it
And all the nameless grievances,
Brought on by borrowed troubles,
Would prove, as certainly they are,
A mass of empty bubbles.

| - The Register is endeavoring to make little
capital for its by disappearing the position
of the Administration the Slavery question. That
paper charges that Gen. Pierce has preferred and is
preferrng Freesolers for Office, when the truth is,
the President, standing on the Baltimore platform,
has not only set his face against Freesoilers but has
recently removed from Office By telegraph, persons
who had formed coalitions with the enemies of Sou
thern rights We invite the Registers attention to
the following:
Especial Despatch to the New York Daily Times
WASHINGTON, Saturday Oct. 29-12 NJ.
Information has been received to-day, at the White
House, of the disorganZing spirit of certain Coa-
ton Democratic ofce-holders in Boston, and else
where in Massachusetts,. The President resorted to
the Geographic wires ordering their prompt decapi-
tation
The Washington Union, of the 3Oth October
speaking for the Administration, and referring to
this very coalition says:
"The Post lays down the law of the administration
correctly. Hany man who holds office under this adj
ministration enters into coalition with free-soilers
such is described in the foregoing article he will
be instantly, and by that mean geographically,
treated enemy of the administration and of the
democratic party, and promptly removed from office.
President Pierce is determined to make his position
understood by all freesOllers, and understood IN
qody that cannot fill to carry c0ncicti0n. Treason
to the national creed will be visited with the punish
ment due to such crime, in all cases. and the condi
ton OF CnngS III MASSACHUSETTS has already called Tor
action of an unmistakeable character. The BALTI-
MORE PLATFORM WILL PRESERVED, and traitors,
whether they in New York Massachusetts,,
matter what their antecedents have been, will find
that the President has but rule for his guidance
He stands pledged to reprove his appointees if
they unaithful to the Baltimore creed and he is
a and President who keeps his pledges. fany
Massachusetts, coalition democrat has misconstrued
the position of the President in regard to te defec
ton in New York, let him learn that coa}ition
with free-soilers is offence which the President
Furnishes promptly and summarly factious
opposition to the administration in any other shape.
The democratic party is to be ceansed thoroughly
Of all suspicion of free-soism abolitionsm and
the remedy will be promptly applied by the Presi-
dent"
And yet in the face of these avowals by the organ
of the Administration and the prompt and decided
action of the President himself he is charged with
having appointed Freesoers to Office; and the Reg
lister resorts to the Independent Concord Dem
ocrat-the infamous " Foss and Fogg" paper of the
last campagn-to prove that the President is against
the fugitive slave law We shall not attempt to
que such points as these The Registers opposition
to the Administration is alike unjust and factious,
and will not be sustained by the people of North
Carolina.

a. The Raleigh Register is prasing the New
York Hunkers The reason for this is obvious
the Register perceives that their recent is
somewhat unfriendly to the Administration And
yet, if Mr.. Dickinson had been nominated for Presi
dent by the last Baltimore Convention his old speech
es would have been paraded in the columns of this
very sheet, and he would have been held up unjust
ly-as Gen. Pierce was-as one of the worst Abo-
litionists in the country.

his accustomed clearness and frankness. It evi
dent that he did not seek opportunity for
ing his views and it was equally evident, when it
seemed to be expected by a portion of the House
that he would speak that he had disposition to
shrink from the responsibilities imposed by his po-
sition of the peoples representatives. Helmet
the various questions in manner which won for
him additional respect. He stated, in the commence
ment of his remarks, that he had no new opinions
to advance and no old to take back and he then
proceeded to state and to illustrate what he conceiv
ed to be the Democratic doctrines as applicable to
the questions under consideration. By these doc
trines he had heretofore stood, and by them he
pected still to stand.
During his remarks question propounded to

promptly answered. His answer worthy of the
position assigned him by the party. He did not a
gree with Mr.. Cherry, and he told him So Indeed,
the meaning and substance of his remarks, far as
they wore political aspect, appeared to be this:
Gentlemen have been voted for for Senator. 1t is
high place-a dazzling prize to the most ambi-
tous; but if l am to be your choice must still be
what was-I shall neither make new issues nor
pledge myself to new issues views. We con-
fess expected just such course from Mr.. Dobbin

disappointed

as reflections on him. We have neither spoken I'M
kindly of those who standing out against the
nominee, nor impeached motives but we must insist
at every hazard, doing simple justice to that
inee by making known his position and his bearing
to the Democracy of the State. The crisis is most
important one. Much, very much depends upon the
action of the party in this matter; and in times like
these the only safe and guding-star is that of
principle Let go where principleslead, and when
they cease to lead let to follow"
