As ANTICIPATED. Some three months since
the President of the United States pardoned
out of the county Jail fellow named Eg-
gleston, who had long been the terror of this
community, and who was confined there in
serving out a sentence for some crime, among
the many of which he had been guilty His
career was so notoriously bad that we felt il
due to comment on the very strange proceed
ing of his pardon, and stated that we should
be greatly mistaken if he did not commit
some crime within brief time after he came
out of Jail. Our worst fears were more than
realized. He assaulted an old man in the
streets here within two weeks after his exit,
and was forced to fly to Baltimore to escape
punishment. There his course has been al
most without precedent. He has just been
arraigned on the charge of murder, and with
committing the assault on the Hon. William
Preston, candidate for Congress at the late
election. 1t would seem that no further
comment is needed These facts serve to
show the evil of extending Executive elem
ency over the criminals confined in Jail. This
is not an isolated instance. So says the Wash
ington Union and States

INAUGURATION OF GEN. HoUsToN.-Ge eneral
Houston was inaugurated as Governor OF
Texas on the 2lst December, amidst the
greatest enthusiasm. The Austian cOrrespon-
dent of the San Antonio Herald writes as
follows:
The Speaker then arose and announced
that General Houston, the Governor elect.
would take the constitutional oath.
The " eagle eyed, lion-hearted" patriot then
arose. like one of the patriarchal family
Then burst forth the mighty heart with giant
throb all former applause was weak, COM
pared 10 that which now made the old Capt.
tol building shake to its very centre. Long
and continued was the spontaneous outburst
of feeling, while the hero of San Jacinto, the
peoples choice for Governor, stood like a
mighty Hercules in their midst,
"The States whole thunder born to WELD,
And shake alike the Senate and the field"
AS soon as calm could be restored, Chief
Justice Wheeler arose and administered the
constitutional oath of office also to Lieuten
ant Governor Edward Clark; after which il
was announced that Gov. Houston would
deliver his inaugural address in front of the
Capitol
