The InaugurnI.

This document is spread before our readers
in to- days paper. Allawill peruse it anxiously,
aud no friend Of the Union can ail 20 be sad
dened at findingn in it 50 little encouragement
for believing that the new Administration is
willing 10 encourage sach an adjustment Of the
difficulties between the Republican party and
the South as will restore harmony to our coun-
try. Mr. Lincoln, it will be observed assumes
that the United States is unaffec ed by the with
drawal of the sPUen States which have seeded.
He declares that he esteems it his duty 10 "hol6,
occupy and possess" all the property Of the
United States; but whether. he means by this
declaration that he intends to re-tale the cap
tured Forts in the seeding States, and ifso,
why he did not declare that purpose in plain,
honest language, not liable to a double inter-
pretation, is left TO conjecture. It is his de-
clared intention to enforce the laws, but he ex-
tent to which this is to lie done, he leaves open
to be controlled by events as they may hereai-
ter occur. How this mends matters, or how it
can satisfy those who have so bitterly denounced
Mr.. Buchanan for omitting to enforce the laws
regardless Of circumstances, are points which
we leave for others to decide. The great fatal
doctrine o the Inaugural, and that which puts
the safety Of the South in constant peril is that
a minority Of American States may, by the re-
suit OF popular election, be divested Of their
constitutional rights as they have been judged
by the highest Judicial tribunal Of the Union;
and hence, that a united North (being major
iy,l are at all times at liberty TO put such lin
itations and constructions on the constitution
al rights of the South as suites their anatcal
whim. This wholesale proposition j aceeded
to, would leave the South without remedy or
protection against the unrestricted domination
OF the North Can any intelligent man in his
sober Senses believe that the smaller States
would ever have entered the Union on such a
basis?-N NeWark AdyOcute.

The Political Trinity which EIec-
ted NILE. LINCOLN.

The political movement which elected Lin
coin succeeded BY offering these boasses and
gifts: To the free States OF the Coniederacy il
offered all the Territories for their exclusive
use and enjoyment. To Pennsylvania it offer
ed high tariff upon iron. To the needy it Of
tered free homestead upon the public domain.
1t will be seen that all were in the shape oi
bribes. They were all class and partial meas
ures-all benefited portions Of the country at
the expense of others The South was to he
deprived of het share IN the public lands-the
mass OF the people North, South, East and
West were4to be taxed to put money in the
pockets Of the iron mongers of Pennsylvania,
and to give away the homestesds to get the
German vote. These bribes and offers Of ex-
clusiye gifts brought Lincoln into power; but
after they have been bestowed we shall be
greatly mistaken ifthere is not visited upon
the authors of the brides general Indignation
Cincinnati ENQUIRER
The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1861-03-13


The Enquirer is the representative in this
city Of a small action Of tories Of the most ma
llignant sort. The attempt ol that sheet to mis-
represent the policy OF Mr.. Gncelh as indicated
in his inaugural address, IS an objectionable
meanness, and blow aimed at the greatest
and dearest intesest of this community, The
man who,is not now solicitious that President
Lincoln shall have fair play in administering
the government, and who does not most earn
estly wish him success, is a scoundrel and a
tory. The partisans here in the North, who
have been lying for years and slandering thier
homes for political advantages, should now stop.
Let the new Administration be judged by its
acts. Let every good citizen uphold every good
work Of those in whom the authority of the na-
ton is placed, and make the best rather than
the worst Of that which comes TO pass: The
nflaumatury falsifcations Of the Enquirer are
not only insulting to the intelligence ofthe peo-
pie, but injurious to all their interests. The
newspaper that under the present circumstan
ces, will go deliberately at work to make bad
blood, is most odious nuisance and ranking
poison to the body polite. @ s
The people ofthe North and South should
particularly beware of liars. The Father Of
lies has been extraordinarily prolific this season,
and ifthe people consulted their safety they
would strangle his offspring. Nothing more is
claimed Tor Mr.. Lincoln than the right Of fair
play That, common sense and patriotism de-
mands he should have; and the tories who
would have the government abandoned, and
| join the thieves and traitors, who have robbed
the national arsenals and sub-treasures and vi
olated their oaths, in every unseemingly demon
stration ofhatred toward the Chief Magistrate
will be, as they ought to be- put under the con.
tempt Of an indignant people = Cincinnati Con.

The above is too good to be overlooked. =
In the very first week Of their Administration

never thought Of giving "fair play and iail

at the head ofa Democratic administration and

that success, every lie that meanness or malig
nifty could invent, must be put in circulation
though the result might be disrupted confed

a beautiful set Of Christians to talk OF "faii

perversions and Interpretations which, dtl-
ring the past four years, have been circulated
to the damage Of Mr. Buchanan's admnistra-
ton b. just such wool-dyed independent
papers as the Cincinnati Commercial. Yet now
| forsooth, the democratic newspapers are to bt

The Fourth Of March has come and gone
The Republican Administration is in full blast
President Lincoln's Inaugural Address has been
delivered, and the telegraph has spread it be ;
fore the American people Instead Of dlssipat
ing, it will increase and deepen the gloom that
shrouded the country be fore its delivery.
There is not in the whole address one ray of
light-one CLEAN ofhope that the new Presi-
dent and his constitutional advisers will do
aught for the paeitication and reconstruction Of
the Union. The Inaugural will have most
irritating effect upon the people Of the States
that have already seeded; it will strengthen
the secessionists and If the policy it indicates
is pursued, it will cause the Border Slave States,
one after another, to leave the Union. Such is
the feast-such the banquet to which this Re
publican Administration invites che American
people. a -a.s.
Many conservatveand moderate men, though
not without doubts and apprehension, cherish
ed the fond anticipation that the Inaugural OF
! the new President would propose some meas
ures, or indicate some course of policy, that
would strengthen the hearts of the Union men
in the border slaye States, and help to re ain
these States in the old Conederacy. But such
men have been doomed to the blankeSt and
saddest disappoin ment. There is nothing in
the address to encourage the hearts of Union
men--not a syllable to stay the tide of seces
sion that is sweeping over the more Northern
Slave States as it has zone over the more South
ern. e .. -....
There is no sentiment--no proposition in the
address which the New York Tribune and other
radical Republican journals will not unhesita-
hngly and heartily endorse. In fact its chief
points, arguments and illustrations are simple,
unadulterated rehash 10 Abraham Lncoln's pc
cullar style, OF the ordinary editorials in those
papers 1t is silent as The grave on the subject
| OF compromise or concession. 1t has nothing
/ to say the duty, by this means, of preserving
the Union in the spirit of the Constitution,
while it dwells largely upon the duty OF rig-
Oily enforcing and executing the laws. So far
as regards the fostering Of "a iraternal spirit and
allaying the secession mania, the Inaugural
might be appropriately headed with the motto
that has for weeks, in flaming capitals, proceed
| ed the firery editorials in the New York TiT-
b,ue. "NO COMPROMISE I NO COCES-

no answer. ~ lqsg#Hs v3 4s
You will therefore continue to do duty as
usual, until further orders, but prepare to move
at a short notice, reducing the baggage as much
as possible. 1.-THE General Commanding knew

From the above it would appear that there
are two sides to Gen. Twiggs' action in Texas

that were ordered from Pittsburgh to supply
the Texas Ports were prohibited from being
sent, by the clamor Of the people there. Wher
all the facts come to light a. new phase may be
put upon the whole affair, and as to the early
telegraph reports we all know they are wholly
unreliable and generally wholly false. Crisis

On the 4th of july, 1808 CHARLES P. Sum-
ner, father of the present Seuator from Massa-
chusetts delivered an grafton pefore the Young
Republicans Of Boston, in which occurs the
following passage: s
"Ehere is indeed no diversity ofinterest be-
tween the people Of the North and the people
of the Souh :and they are no friends to either
Wbo endeaoor to stimulate and ernbitter the one
against the other. What if the sons of Massa.
chusetts rank high on the roll of Revolutionary
ame? The wisdom and herosm for which
they have been distinguished will never per-
NIT them to indulge in inglorious boast. The
independence and liberty we possess are the
resu t Of joint counsels and joint efforts s--or
common dangers, sutferings, and successes,
and God forbid that, those who have every
motive ofsympathy and interest to act iu con-
cert, should ever become the prey of party
chickering's among themselves"
What falling off, there has been in the
character of the men who made our Union,
and those who have destroyed it.
Compare this with any thing that has fallen
from the mouth Of Black Republican for years
past, and the reader can easily trace the causes
OF our disarter.
There are white and there are black publ-
cans and we have often wondered if the Black
Republicans ever supposed that the true his
tory Of their conduct could be blotted out with
the ruin Of their country They will neither
listen to their own "white'' friends nor to the
Democrats.
1t is quite time that the whittier portion OF the
Republican party should secede from their
brothers of the black stripe for it is impossible
tor them both to agree. GW
Instead Of following Sumner Of the present
day follow Sumner OF 1903.
The language OF the Sumner that supported
the Union, differs widely from the Sumner
that has labored for itsruin.
One Sumner went 70 his grave patriot
the other will go traitor. Crisis.

From the Irlbune, Warch Al
This, then, is The point when an attitude OF
conciliation may be properly taken by the Re-
publican Administration, and which, while in
voving no surrender Of principle on the Repub-
lican side, nevertheless yields substantial
advantage to those in the slave States who re-
ally apprehend mischievous consequences to
their institutions from an undue growth of the
anti slavery sentiment in the North. Another
thing which may be yielded is an offer to hold
national convention to consider amendments
to the Federal Constitution.
