The Governor. In.ugur.sson.

The Inauguration OF Gov. HARRIS yesterday
was attended with the usual ceremonies. 1t
took place in the Hall of the House of Re-
representatives., in the presence of the two
Houses of the General Assembly. and q large
number Of citizens who filled the Hobbies and
galleries. The Cadets of The Military De-
pariment Of the University of Nashville at
tended, in uniform, on the occasion. The
Governors Inaugural Address was comprised
in very few sentences, being substantially
that, he appeared on that occasion to take The
oath Of Office required of the Governor of
Tennessee. He had for two years occupied
the Office, during which he had discharged the
duties devolved upon him to the best of his
ability. He had no better pledge TOR his future
ture than to be found in his past administra-
ton He acknowledged with pride and graft
tude the esteem and confidence exhibited to-
wards him by the people of Tennessee, and
the manifestation of their continued conf
dence in calling him again to the chief execu-
tive Office OF the State. His views on politi-
cal questions and that State policy were
known to those who desired to know
them, in his public discussions and in his
messages. He was then and there ready
to take the oaths of Office. Upon the con-
clusion of the ceremonies of inaugura-
tion, minutes guns were fiji ed from the East
front of the Capitol for half an hour. Both
Houses of the Legislature adjourned for the
day; and at night an exhibition of fireworks
took place at the Capitol in honor of the &C.

sions she cared not a jot (and we think her
sentiments proper. For who with a maiden
would ever wed, that allowed such trash to
turn her head y Their fattery did not stop
her.
She kept on Der way--as we stated be-
fore--till her goal was reached, a grocery
store, which is numbered Oarge figuresj
1904, where she always "done her tradn."
Into this she turned with a smile on her face,
and bowed to the clerks with a killing
grace, and each one of them would have lost
his place, ere he sighted the lovely maiden.
The gentle Miss Judy, whilst looking
around, and asking if this thing and that
thing was sound, and pricing lard, sugar and
bacon per pound. 10 know how much she'd
be takin'-the ObiigiDg clerk turned mo-
ment his head, to hear what another young
clerk had just said, when quickly the maiden
with top-knot of red, meath the folds Cf her
crinoline dex'trously sped an entire raiddiing
Of bacon! (Ah Judy O'Mulligan, little you
thought when paying the clerk for the things
you had bought. that the clever, obliging
young fellow had caught you in the act OF
stealing bacon. But. rather ashamed to ac-
cuse yon of thieving. he waited 10 notice
your movement when leaving, to see how
your load could be taken.)
And telling the clerk where the goods
should be sent. she smiled good evening""
and homeward she went-not dreaming the
clerk followed after. But the gentle Miss
Judy had lost all her grace, for the weight Of
the bacon iinpeded her pace, and the young
man behind her grew red in the face, sup
pressing his inward laughter. There is an
old adage of 81 murder will out" without
our assistance to bring it about; and the
saying holds good against stealing. For,
often. the care which is used TO conceal the
commission of crimes which you would not
reveal, is the cause itself OF revealing. Thus
it was with Miss Judy, who crossing the
street, raised the front of her dress to ex-
hibit her feet--a fashion not yet quite for
saken-wben mischievOus newsboy, the
bacon espied, dropped his arInful of papers
20, crickey," he cried, boys, 'ere's new
way to hang bacon."
The guilty O'Mulligan uttered shrek
the pallor of fear blanched her rosy cheek,
and she faintsd DER and DER. But the clever
young clerk. who had seen her fall, sent the
boy around the corner, a cab to call, into
which she was lit d. bacon and all, and the
cabman drove back t. tie store.
There's but little left of the story to tell
on reaching the store the fair maiden was
well. and the theft she fully confessed. She
paid for the bacon, aud vowed that ne'er
more would she carry off meat from a
grocery store. And there did the mat
ter end. But the clever young clerk now
boldly asserts that charity covereth less sin
than hoop skirts

A Southern Territory Out OF CALI
ffOrnEa,

At the last session Of the Legislature pro-
vision wss made for submitting to the voters
in the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernar-
no, San Diego, Santa Barbara San Luis
Obispo and Tulare the question as to these
counties being segregated from the State and
erected into territory to be called Colorado
The law required that two thirds of those
voting should make valid the consent given
by the Legislature of the division of the
State. The returns received show the vote
to be for the Territory, PAST; against. S2S.
This decides the question, as far as the peo-
pie are concerned, in the affirmative. though
ii seems strange that the matter of dividing
the State should be lett TO 5000 voters out
OF 10000, who reside there. II is probable
Congress will be asked TO organize at its next
session the six counties above named into a
Territory.
The Object of this movement has not been
at any time since its inception generally un.
derstood. Some believe the southern section
of the State feels the burden of taxation TO
be too heavy, and desire 10 have TIE expenses
ct its government borne by the United States
but with many the opinion is fixed that the;
object of the division is to create a slave
State ON the Pacific.

WHO Forbcrf

The FORBES correspondence which has
Republican chiefs, has also given rise to the
interrogatory-"Who is FoRBEs?'' The fol-
lowing extract from the Paris correspondence
of the London Star of June 2. 1853, gives
some information concerning him:
"An English gentleman, living upon ample
means at Vienna, where he was holding
fret rate position in society, Mr.. Forbes, on
the outbreak of the Italian instruction IN
1913. found himself incapable of resisting
the torrent, and joined heart and soul, body
and mind person and purse, to that Sacred
cause Of which Garibaldi had proclaimed
himself the leader. BY singular freak of
nature, it was discovered that this quiet
English gentleman, who had all his life been
engaged in scientific pursuits, living in the
boeom of his family in the administration Of
bis own private fortune, was possessed of 4
most marvellous talent Tor raising troops and
so we'll did he exert it. that il is owned by all
persons familiar with the events of that
period, that it was entirely owing to the
rapdity with which regiment after reg ment
was raised, equipped and prepared Tor the
field by Forbes, that Garlbaldl was enabled
TO advance in 30 sbort u space of time as TO
battle all the calculations Vt his enemies, and
insure that steady triumph TO his cause which
was arrested only by the overwhelming NUM-
he rs sent against him by that new and I'M
forescen enemy, the French Republic. Less
fortunate than Garibaldi, Forbes was arrested
and thrown into prison, where he remained
Tor more than two years, and whence he was
released ut the demand OF the British govern
ment. lie subsequently, re'at 10 RaRsds, uhere he
has been dOtny good service an The dntl-stdUeTy
cause, deputed By the societies Of London and NeW
York 10 head the movement during Tie disturbances
ga that pT0cmce."
1t appears then that FORBES is an emissary
of the London abolitionists, and that he was,
during the Kansas troubles, also in the en-
ploy Of the American abolitionists. Horace
GREELEY acknowledges the latter, whilst en-
desvoring to impeach his credibility. There
can, therefore, be no doubt as to the employ
ment which has occupied this impudent
Englishman in this country; for We have, in
addition to the above, the details, from his
own pen, of his plan to run off slaves from
the South, and carry them TO Canada. 1t
strikes us that he should not be overlooked
leading Republicans in the Harper's Ferry
conspiracy. His whereabouts ought to be in
quired into, and the state of his health ascer-
tanned. A British mercenary, upon our soil
with the avowed purpose of conspiring against
the property and lives of American citizens,
if there is power in the government to reach
and punish him, he should be made to suffer.
If there is no law to rid the country of such
reptiles there are other means which might
be employed.
