son, by portion Of the people and States Of
this Union to the Constitution and laws of the
United States) should feel myself recreant
to the trust reposed in me by the people of
Louisiana, did fail to uphold the sound con-
stiutional principles upon which the National
Democratic party Of the United States entered
upon, and triumphantly carried the last Presi-
Dental election-maintaining as they do, the
rights Of property Of the people of the South,
both in the States and Territories, inviolate
from attack whether of Federal or Territorial
legislation. But l will not permit my mind
to dwell on the possibility of being placed in
such position, feeling the proud assurance,
that when the crisis calls for action by the
Legislature of Louisiana, you, Senators, will
lie as united in the assertion Of her rights on
the floor of this Senate, as you will be valiant
in their defense, if need be, on the field o.
battle.
On that day, if come it must, (and no sor
of the South will lamentits dire necessity more
than myself) every vestige of party antago
nism will have been swept away, and the PEG
pie of all Louisiana, united, will rush to hel
unfurled banner, with you, Senators, in front,
to do battle for her honor, her institutions ant
her sovereignty.

Address Of Lieut.. Gov. Hyams,

Gentlemen Of the Scna's:-In presenting to you
my oath Of Office as Lieutenant Governor of
the State of Louisiana take this occasion to
address you as presiding officer of your honor
able body.
In the language of that obligation it is my
hope, as 1t shall ever be my earnest effort,
faithfully and impartially to perform all the
duties incumbent on me as SUCH according to
the best of my ability aud understanding,
asreeahly to the Constitution and laws of the
United States and this State"
In the discharge of this trust, shall en-
deavor never to loose sight of the principle
that the rules which govern the Senate have
been established as we'll to protect the minori-
ty from the arbitrary or unjust exercise of
power by the majority, as to prevent surprise
or hasty legislation.
cannot tlatter myself that can escape the
commission Of errors, however sincere my de-
sire or earnest my exerton to avoid them; this
conviction impels me therefore at the thresh-
hold Of my induction into office to bespeak
your Considerable indulgence during my official
career,
Should it become my duty to decide by my
casting vote questions purely of a legislative
nature, shall, in its exercise, be guided safely
by the convictions of my deliberate judgment
for the advancement of the interests of the
State. But should be called upon to exercise
that right in matters involving the dignity,
the honor or sovereignty OF the State las we'll
it may ba in these times Of detection and trea.
