ST. NS!BURY,
SATURDAY. MARCH. 10, 1853.
THE INAuuuKAL Address OF President
Pierce, Ike that OF Gen. Taylor, has one
characteristic that men OF all parties admire
that is brcvitv The new President does
not promise much therefore we may expect
the more from him-onlv We hope that what
does come, whether plenteous or not, it may
be all GOOD. In more respects than one Gen.
Pierce has initiated Gen. TAYLOR He has
hardly touched on a subject upon which par
ties widely disagree and has alluded to those
only. with s!4ht exceptions, abou; winch
there is no contention. This is prudent. and
better than to initiate the course pursued by
The elder "lIirkorv" and some other men,
who have been favored with the privilege oil
putin" forth inlu.urals on the ith OF March.
1t Indicates too, the existence Of less party
bitterness, and consequently we may hope for
better measures with less ultraism mingled
with them.
There are points in it open TO criticism.
but in view of its conciliatorv spirit General
". and the rcren: atirtion of its author. We
~ few will be disposed to speak harshlv of
anv part of it; hut will give to it a General
commentator. Some NAV think his more
lengthy remarks about the ~ MON of the
States" uncal!cl for,-aS the pouring ont of
incense to nothng-at a time when their
severance is unthrcatcncd, and their union
compact. firm and mistaken as ever. The
subject however. i used As a sort of bottom
pour their >nprrahunlancr of PATRIOTISM. As
