ST. LOUIS, March 5.-The Presidents Inaugu-

was sought after with great avidity by persons of
all parties The Republican, (Douglas) Dem
ocrats says we fail to see in 1t any disposition to
sweep party platforms and party politics aside.
But its guarded words and studied sentences
seem to have been prompted by the sole idea of
meeting the expectations Of the Republicans who
elected him. We hoped for more conserva-
tive and more conciliatory expression of Eenti-
ments. Much will now depend upon the put
ting into practice of the ideas advanced. That
will test the que stion-be it one of expedence
or of right-whether the forts can be held Or re-
taken and revenues collected without bloodshed.
The Dem (Repub.) says: We can only say
this morning that it meets the highest expecta-
oc. I, in int IF cte fpan,
ship and patriotism, and that its fleet upon the
public mind cannot be other than salutary in the
highest degree,
The News, (Bell Everett), defers comment un-
ii! an official copy is received.

augural gives general satisfaction and elicits
praise from some of the following from the two
daily papers. 1t may be considered fair index of

Ter and Democrat characterizes it as vague and
indefinite, and calculated to have bad effect
on the border slave states.
