TIE INAUGURATION IN CAMBRIDGE,--It
will be remembered that at the recent election
Hon. James ID. Greene was declared elected
Mayor of Cambridge, over the incumbent,
Hon. John Sargent. Recently, however, the
Board of aldermen claim to have discovered
an error in the count of 100 votes in Ward
Four, which would have elected Mr. Sargent,
and also James p Richardson alderman for
that Ward, upon the same ticket. Mr.. Sar-
gent declined TO press the matter, and MIR.
Greene was accordingly inaugurated at the
appointed time. The Traveller gives the fol-
lowing account of the preliminary proceedings
Mayor Green read his certificate of eec-
ton as Mayor. from the City Clerk and
said, ! am now present to take the prescribed
oath Of Office. After careful examination of
the whole matter, and after having taken legal
advice in the premises, / am satisfied that my
right to the office is incontestible and undoubt-
ed and that fact being established, my duty
as good citizen is equally clear and impera-
tive. However extraordinary therefore may
seem to come the course l am now taking
in not recognizing the authority of the
Board of Aldermen in their recent proceed
ings, my sense of duty to the constituents who
have elected me TO this honorable Office to the
laws Of the land which we are bound to obey,
and to my own reputation, impel me to do no
less and will restrain me from doing anything
more than my strict duty in the premises and
now, and here, notify and warn all persons
to govern themselves accordingly. lie direct
ed the Clerk to enter this upon the records Of
the city.
He then requested his honor Justice Ladd
to administer the oath of office to him. This
request was complied with by that officer, and
the oath of office was duly administered

-u-
CHURCH Music AND SACRED AUs1c SocI
ETIEs.-Our church-going readers will have
varied feelings on seeing the first part of the
title to this article. The changes of the past
fifty years at the weird touch of memory, will
pass before them from the time when the
hymns were "deaconed" to that when select
choir do all this part of the worship of the
congregation, and consider other voices as
"poaching on their manor" Much of the
discussion on the general subject takes notice
only Of the singers on one side, Or of the peo
pie on the other, without giving that promi-
nence to the state of musical culture and taste
in the communities where changes are propos
ed, or experiments have been made partcu
lars, in regard to which no two are alike Now
one good result of well organized and strongly
supported musical societies is that while, in
the first instance, they make their members ia
miar with higher class of music through
them the whole community are reached and ed
ucated. On every person interested in this
part of public worship such associations have
claim for support. They ought not to be
forgotten by any who desire to encourage in
nocent recreation. The friends of talent tai.
ent--"gems of purest ray serene"--should re-
member that here it finds opportunity for its
manifestation and growth. Strike out of ex-
istence our Mozart Society here, and who does
not feel it would be a great public loss. Give
it generous support, then, that its means of
usefulness may be greater, and so be far more
influential than is now in its power We trust
that the attendance next Friday evening will
be an evidence that our citizens are ready to
do this.

oUR NEW GOVERNMENT.

Tho ;naugnrotion of a new local govern
ment is always an occasion OF interest to cltl-
zens who entertain a proper regard for the
welfare and prosperity of the community in
which they live. 1t holds in trust to a great
extent, the lives, property, and character ofits
constituency, and is often held responsible for
much over which it has only partial and in
direct control The government which came
to a close yesterday, may congratulate itself
that the good name of the city has received
no detriment while in its hands. The govern
ment, inaugurated yesterday, may congratu-
late itself the more, in the more fatterng
auspices under which it commences its duties,
in the unusual unanimity with which it was
endorsed at the polls, and in the general ac-
quiescence in the policy which it announces as
its purpose to pursue.
The address of Mayor Rice contains many
wise and practical suggestions which will I'M
doubtedly receive the early consideration OF
his associates in the government, and do not
call for special comment at this time. 1t de-
votes much space to the subject of the public
schools, for the benefit of which he has devot-
ed much time and service, and i'll which he
has given abundant evidence of chershing
sincere and devoted interest In this depart
ment he recommends a liberal, rather than
restricted policy, as also in the administration
of charities, in the care of highways, in pro"
viding safeguards against fire, and in the other
matters of municipal concern. The policy of
the government upon the subject of admins
tering the laws under which we live is stated
with decision and candor; and every order
loving citizen will welcome and encourage
whatever judicious measures may be adopted
to secure the results which that policy contem-
plates.
The appointments and elections already
made by either branch of the government are
highly creditabe. Col. IvERs PHILLIPS, City
Marshal, IL an experienced Efficient officer,
ana VIII undoubtedly devote himself wholly
to the arduous sGad sometimes thankless duties
OF has'a1sgst. The reelection, by an almost
unanimous vote, of the present City Clerk,
Mr. Samuel Smith, and Treasurer, Mr. Geo.
W. Wheeler, is a just and merited testimony
to their fidelity in Office and their uniform
courtesy to all who have had occasion to con-
suit them, or to do business in their Offices
The city shows its discretion in retaining
their excellent services, in spite of changes in
administrations and governments.

ORGANIZATION OF THE STATE GOVERN
MENT.-The Legislature elect will assemble at
the State House, tomorrow "Wednesday
when the reorganization of the state govern
ment will take place. After the election of
the Speaker of the House, and the President
of the Senate, the Chief Executive, with the
Legislature and heads of department, will pro.
coed to the Old South Church, where the an.
nnai sermon viii be delivered by Rev I. ID.
Anderson of Roxbury. The Republican eau
Gus for the nomination of officers of the House
meets this evening. We trust the members
from Worcester county will not fail to be pres
ent and express the preferences which their
constituencies very generally entertain. The
Governors message is not anticipated before
Friday. The oldest member of the House
will be Mr.. Horatio Alger of Marlboro, who
represented Chelsea in the Legislature of 1884.
ENGLISH POSTAL PRIvILEGEs.-It appears
from the annual report of the Postmaster
General of Great Britain and Ireland, that the
number of letters delivered in the United
Kingdom during the year 1858, was 523,000,-
OOU, showing an increase OF nineteen millions
over the preceding year, and an increase, as
compared with the year previous to the intro
duction of penny postage (lS39) of 447 100000,
making a seren.told increase of letters within
less than twenty years. The rates of postage
are put down 10 the lowest public point The
letters are promptly delivered personally to
those to whom they are addressed. Those
which fail to find their destination are returned
to the writers. Letters are transmitted to the
farthest points in the kingdom more rapidly
than they here pass between two adjoining cit
les. A money order system is adopted also, by
which small remittanees can be safely made.
There were 6,6s9S96 money orders issued
during the year 1858, covering an amount in
the aggregate of over SCI 100000
