Republic, we purchased these posses
sions under the treaty of peace for a
sum which was considered ut the time
a fair equivalent.
Our past history forbids that We
shall in the future acquire territory
unless this be sanctioned by the laws
of Justice and honor. Acting on this
principle, no nation will have a right
to interiors or complain of the progress
of events. We shall still further ex-
tend our possessions.
Hitherto in all our acquisitions, the
people, under the protection Of the
American flag, have enjoyed civil and
religious liberty, as well as equal and
Just laws, and have been cOntented
and happy. Their trade with the rest
of the world has rapidly increased,
and thus every commercial! nation has
shared largely in their successful pro-
gress. l shall now proceed to take
the oath prescribed by the Constitu.
ton, while humbly invoking the bles.
sing of Divine Providence on this
great people.

FREMoNT's MARlPosA CLAIM.-J.
G. Fremont has demanded possession
fail the property .of.the Mt. Ophir
Mining Company, in MaripoSa
County, California. Regarding this
as the beginning a series of encroach-
ments upon their rights, the settlers
and miners of that district have held
a meeting to determine upon meas
ures for their protection. They re-
solved at that meeting that the loca-
zion Of that claim upon the mineral
lands of Mariposa County was unjust
and ought to be annulIed; that the
settlers and miners had a prior and
paramount claim to said lands, and
that any attempt of Fremont to eject
one settler would be considered 2
blow at the whole, and should be resis-
ted. Vigilance Committees were APP
pointed and the settlers pledged them
selves to be true to each other and to
respond promptly to the cal! OF their
leaders.

The Inaugural Address.

This document will be found, entire,
in to-day's paper. 1t is a plain,
straightforward statement ofthe Pres
ident's opinions, and clearly marks out
the policy Of his administration. We
are particularly pleased with his re-
marks relative to the public lands, an
immense quantity Of which has been
sQuandered during the past few years.
The last Congress seemed to Nave been
afflicted with a mania in this respect,
donatingto wealthy corporations much
of the best lands which should have
been reserved for actual settlers. The
poor emigrant, by this course, is fair
ly left to the mercy Of avaricious
spectators, who become enriched by
his toll and privotious. We are glad
10 Know that the President has set his
lace against this unfair system.
The address, in all its parts, is such
as we had a right to expect from the
well known ability of the author, and
it harmonizcS perfectly with the prin-
ciples for which the Democracy have
always contended. 1t is frank and
undisguised in every particular, and
in this respect must be admired by
men of all parties.
