OPINIONS OF TnE INAUGrRAL.

CHICAGO, March 5.-The inaugural of Mr.
Lincoln was published in an Extra last
evening. The Post, neutral, regards it, with
the exception Of II lew inelegancies of ex-
preston, highly respectable paper, and
infers from the general tone of the address
that his administration will not prevent a
speedy and honorable settlement of the
present national troubles The Times.
democrat says the whole seems to he Il
loose, disjoiuted, and rambling affair The
general purport of the message forces the
conclusion that Lincoln has resolved to force
his doctrines on the country at the point of
the bayonet. 1t concludes by saying, our
own conviction is that the Union is lost be-
yond hope. II the message is carried out
in good faith, there must be civil war in
less than 30 days or the Southern people
are set of arrant braggarts and towards.
The only hope left is that Lincoln will not
do as he says.
The Tribune, republican, is quite sure no
documen. can be found among American
state papers embodying soundcr wisdom
and higher patriotism, breathing kindlier
feelings for all sections of the country, or
stamped with firmer purpose to maintain
the Union and Constitution inviolate, than
the inaugural address of President Lincoln
The Democrat (Wentworth's paper) has a
deicacy in giving views on the inaugural
but, as it neither wishes nor expects any
thing at tho hands of Lincoln, it can give
the document its unqualified admiration as
far rs it goes

AN INCIDENT OF THE ITALIAN INsURREC-
TIoN.-It is sometimes inconvenient to be
famous. Professor HOLLOWAY, the distin-
guished medical reformer, once had expert
ence Of the feet. IL was his fortune, or
misfortune, to be in Piedmont when the
Italian revolution OF l849 was mt its cul-
mnating point. He had been on tour
through the Swiss Alps, investigating the
phenomena of an extraordinary case OF
scrofula indigenous to that region, and
known as cretlnism. While thus engaged,
and intent on observing the effect Of his
remedies upon the prescribed and hideous
race who have inherited for many genera
tions this horrible disorder, the torch of
civil war had been lighted at Milan and its
flames had illuminated the whole Lombardo-
Venetian territory. At the time when he
set forward on his journey South, Charles
Albert, of Sardinia, had been driven beyond
the Mincio, and Radetzky's victorious troops
were in full pursuit. Expecting that his
neutral position as an Englishman, and his
character as man of science, would pro-
tect him from outrage, DR.. Holloway fear
lessly set out upon his journey through the
peninsula; but a circumstance occurred
upon which he had not calculated. Mar
shall Radetzky, in the very flush Of victory
had been taken suddenly i'll, and one of the
advance parties of his army having en-
countered DR.. Holloway's carriage and dis
covered who was its inmate, his presence
was requested at headquarters, to attend
upon the sick veteran. As n peaceful
civilian and his suite cannot gain much in n
dispute with a troop of horse, the Doctor
submitted with the best grace possible. He
found the SCARED and wrinkled soldier in
great suffering The fatigues of the cam
paign had brought on bilious fever of a
very severe type, and as Raketzky was then
nearly seventy years of age, the army sur
geous shook their heads ominously. The
Marshal at once put himself under DIR. Hol-
loway's care, and the latter proceeded to
administer his famous Internal Remedy. The
fever soon subsidized, and in less than three
weeks the Commander-in-chief was once
more in the saddle. He paid his physician
a happy compliment on his recovery. "You,
Dr. Holloway" said he, fare greater con-
queror than | for have simply put down
rebellion while you have defeated Death."-
Radetzky wished him to go to Vienna, as
surfing him as an inducement that he would
be placed NJ the bead of the imperial medi-
cal staff; but DR.. Holloways ambition had
a wider and nobler scope, and he turned his
face homeward with the old mans blessings
on his head.-NdpLes "Diario."

A VISIT TO THE PRESIDENT.

WAsHlNGToN, March g. - Several State
delegations, this morning at different times,
paid their respects TO President Lincoln.
Prominent among them were those from
Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. The lat
ter rs did the former, assembled in the
East Room, where Lincoln, making his APP
pearance, was introduced to Hon. Chas. r.
Train, who, briefly addressing Lincoln,
said: Massachusetts had read his inaugural
and would stand by it, and that from none
would il meet with more cordial support
than from the old Bay State"
Lincoln replying said substantially, abe
was thankful for this renewed assurance Of
this kind feeling, and confidence, and sup
port Of the old Bay State In so far AS you,
Mr.. Chairman, have expressed in behalf Of
those You represent, your sanction of what
| have communicated in my inaugural, it is
very gratifying to my feelings The OBJ
iect was one Of delicacy in presenting my
views at the opening of a new administra-
ton under the peculiar circumstances at
tending my entrance upon the official duties
connected with the government. l studied
all the points with great anxiety, and pre-
scented them with whate ger ability and sense
Justice | could bring to bear
If it meet the appreciation OF our good
friends in Massachusetts, l shall be exceed
ingly gratifed. | hope it will meet the ap-
probation of friends everywhere. | am
thankful for the expressions of those who
have voted with us, and like every other
man of you, like them certainly as | do
others. Laughter. As President, in the
administration Of the government, hope
shall be man enough to not know one citi-
zen of the United States from another,
cries of good, nor one section from
another. | shall be gratihed to have the
good friends OF Massachusetts and others,
who have thus far supported me in these
national views, still support me in carrying
them out Mr.. Lincoln excused himself
from further remarks on account of pressing
business, and retired without further cere-
mouy, with farewell bow.
Gen. Scott and Secretary Holt were also
visited. To the greetings of the Pcnnsyl-
vania delegation, Gen. Scott made a brief
patriotic, and friendly speech.
MIR. Holt expressed himself highly hon
ored by the visit, and his regret that the
brief time he had occupied the War De-
partmcnt had not enabled him to do more
for the country.
