H1he InaugI7rai.

In another column may be found the Inau-
gural Address Of President Buchanan. 1t is
brief and fails TO touch the sympathetic chord
of the people, being cold and formal. In this
respect II differs very materially from the
honest and generous sentiments which were
SO boldly uttered by Gen. Taylor in his In
auglral address. 1t utterly fails to inspire a
new thought, or fan into life the dying en-
bers of national patriotism founded upon
the principles of the Declaration of Indepeud-
ence. The thoughts presented are common,
aud have been worn thread-bare by every
elitor and school-house orator in the country.
TIE policy which it indicates, is continua-
ton Of Pierce's administration. Sluatter
sovereignty, with all the modern inconsistcn-
ces Of the term, is swallowed at one gulp.-
Our posses ions must be extended, and our
laws of Kansas obeyed. Taken all-in all,
together with the Ostend Manifesto, Buchan-
an is evidently inclined to do something hand
some for his Southern constituents.

New York Town Elections.

There is not much use in noting New York
politics, where the tides run only one way;
but the following report shows that the Re-
pubcans are taking the local affairs into their
own hands; "Returns of the town elections
in thirteen counties of New York State, which
last year chose as Supervisors sixty-one Re-
Republicans, seventy-one Democrats, and
si1ty-two Americans, now show the election
of one hundred and twenty-one Republicans,
ffty.one Democrats, and twenty-four Ameri-
cans-being Republican gain of sixty; a
Democratic loss of twenty, and an Aameri-
can loss of thirty eight. In these towns
toe Democrats and Americans made gene
raj effort to unite their forces to defeat the
Republicans"

B-The democratic Lieutenant Governor
of Indiana, kept the senate of that state from
transacting business for five successive days,
by refusing to announce any vote which did
not contain the name of Leroy Woods, a dem
ocratic candidate who was not elected to the
senate, but doubtless thinks he was. The
senate would not permit their clerk to call the
name of Mr.. Woods, and the speaker would
not announce the vote without his name being
called. At the expiration Of FIVE days the
Lieut.. eausd and business went along as
usual.

o. A bill has passed the bogus Legislature
of Kansas, declaring resistance to their " in
famous" laws, which are declared TO be a
" disgrace to civilization by Gen. Cass, re-
bellion, punishable with death, and Geary has
signed it. He also declares that he will en-.
force it to the letter. Such an act is clearly
unconstitutional. but that makes no difference
with modern democracy. II is enough fol
them to know that the border rufian', ant
the democratic slave power, demand it.

The Cabinet.
The following persons have been selected

The following persons have been selected
by Mr.. Buchanan as his Cabinet officers
Secretary OF State-Lewis Cass. of Michigan,
Secretary Of the TreasuryHowell Cobb, of Georgia.
Secretary of War-John b. Floyd. of Virginia.
Secretary Of the Havy-IsAac Toucey, of Connecticut.
Secretary Of the Interior-Jacob Thompson of Miss
Post Master General-Aaron V. Brown, of Tennessee.
Attorney General-Judge Black, of Pennsylvania.
This is undoubtedly much weaker body
Of men than Pierce had for his Cabinet +; and
it may be fortunate for the country, as they
may not be competent to do as much mischief
as their predecessors. 1t will be observed
that the South has the weight in numbers and
Intellectual force. Cass is not so devoted to
the North and northern interests, as Toombs
is to the South and southern interests Tou-
cy is mild, plisble politician, and thinks the
South is greatly abused, while Floyd is reg
ular fre-eating slavery extensionist, of the
John A. Wise school. Judge Black is po-
litical nobody, pitted against Thompson and
Brown, who are men Of political experience
and ardent worshippers of the peculiar insti
tuition. If Floyd's doctrine that " slavery i:
necessary in all civil governments, and mus
expand" is not put into practical operation
during the next four years, it will not be the
fault Of Buchsnan's Cabinet.

FROM hASSAS.-IHe IIedVenWOrtn cOTTeS-
pondent of the Chicago Tribune gives the fol-
lowing illustration of the manner In which JUS
tice is administered in Kansas
Some rich developments have been made
in the o. S.. District Court Of late, which prove
how debased and corrupt our legal tribunals
in the territory have been. On Wednesday
the case of Henderson Smallwood came up
for trial before Judge Lecompte. Mr.. Smaff-
wood was among those who acted as Judge
at Rseder's election to Congress For this
offence he was arrested and put under heavy
bonds, but his trial was adjourned ever sever
al terms of the Court. At last however, the
day came when the case would be disposed of.
When it was called up, Mr.. Smalwood's eoun-
sci requested to see the Indictment against his
client. After some ridiculous investigations
it was announced that there WaS no Indictment
No indctment-no presentment of any kind,
and yet, Mr.. Smalwood had been arrested ;
aud held to bail, upon what? Upon mere
bench warrant, which acted even the signature
of the Court And it now appears that Judge
Lecompte has frequently been in the habit of
mprisonng and fning free State men upon
the strength of bench warrants"
1t was discovered that twenty others were
in the same position as Mr. Smallwood, and
that gentlemans counsel moved that all should
be discharged This, after some hesitation
finding himself cornered, Judge Leccmpte was
obliged to do. Caleb May was tried for acting
as Judge, at Reeder'S election, and acquitted
A letter published in the New York Daily

other free State citizens of Lawrance, asking
certain concessions, in order to ensure the free
State men voting at the next election, was
suggested by Stanton himself, while at Law
renee The following is the statement of the
occurrence.
Acting Governor Stanton inquired of
Gov. Robinson and Others whether they
were willing to make fair trial of strength,
if chance were referred The reply unhesi-
tatingly, was :" Yes" What" said Mr.. STAN
ton, 'jwould satisfy you p An honest revi-
sion of the census list, and half the Judges of
election was the reply. The plan proposed
in Gov Robinson's letter, was mentioned
he approved that part relating to the census,
and thought the other might be satisfactorily
arranged. He was told that he had not the
power to secure these changes but expressed
himself confident that his influence would suf-
flee Al his Oacn request, the proposition was
reduced to writing and as he left Lawrence
before its completion, it was sent to him at
Lecompton.
During the next morning, in conversation,
he reiterated his confidence in being able to Sc
cure the cooperation of the SherffS & Probate
Judges in this plan, and left town with the ap-
parent expectation of receiving and acting on
