Indiana State sentinel. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1861-03-13

ne papers Benerdlly view the inaugural as q
mild, though firm expression of lofty manliness
and craftsmanship. The Pennsylvania, on the
contrary, calls it discreditable-unworthy Of the
President, and a weak declaration of war against
the seeding States-a tigers claw, concealed
under the fear of Sewardism.
HARTFORD, Tuesday, March 5.
A national salute was fired in this city yester-
day afternoon in honor of Lincoln's Inauguration.
The inaugural gives general satisfaction among
the Republicans, and many leading Democrats
do Lot hesitate TO speak well of it. They like its
straightforward manly tone, and the assurance
that it gives that the Government will be firmly
administered, and the union of all the States pre-
served.
CINCINNATI, Tuesday, March 5.
The inaugural was well received by all parties,
and with few exceptions regarded to be very
sensible and judicious document, and has produc-
ed most favorable impression of Mr.. Lincoln.
1t is generally considered that he has laid down
the only policy for himself he could have done
and be consistent with his duty and his official
oath, and that in doing so he has mingled mild
ness with firmness admirably. The inaugural
was published here, in extra form, at four clock
p. NJ. yesterday.
CHICAGO, Tuesday, March s.
The inaugural of Mr. Lincoln, published in an
extra last evening. The Post (neutral) regards
it with the exception of few ineegances of express
sion as a highly respectable paper, and infers
from the general tone of the address that his adj
mnstration will not prevent speedy and honora-
bic adjustment of the present national troubles.
The Times (Dem.,) says the whole seems to be
a lose disjOinted rambling affair, the general pur-
port of the message forces the conclusion that
Lincoln has resolved to force his doctrines upon
the country at point of the bayonet. 1t concludes
by saying our own conviction that the Union is
lost beyond hope if the message is carried out in
good faith, there must be civil war within thirty
days or Southern people are set arrant brag
CARTS and towards. The only hope left is that
Lincoln will not do he says.
The Tribune (Rep,) is quite sure no docu-
ment can be found among American State papers
embOdying gre Ter wisdom and higher patriotism,
breathing kiDdllr feelings to all portions of the
country stamped with more firm purpose to
maintain the Union and the Constitution and in
violate than the inaugural address of President
Lincoln.
The Democrat (Wentworth's p,per,) has deli
cacy in giving its views on the inaugural, but it
neither wishes or expects any thing at the hands
of Lincoln. can give the document the qualified
admiration as far as it goes.
ST. LOUIS, Tuesday, March g.
The Presidents inaugural was published in
extras yesterday afternoon, and sought after with
great avidity by persons of all parties.
The Republican, Douglas Democrat, says:
We fail to see in it any disposition to sweep
party platforms or party politics aside, but its
guarded words and studied sentences seem to
have been prompted by some idea of meeting the
expectations of Republicans who elected him.
We had hoped for more conservative, more con
ciliatOry expression of sentiment. Much will
depend upon putting in practice the ideas ad-
vanced. That will test the question, be it one
of expediency or right, whether the forts can be
held or retaken and revenues collected without
bloodshed
The Democrat, Republican says only
say this morning that it meets the highest expecta-
tons of the country both in point of statesman
ship and patriotism, and that its effect on the
public mind can not be other than sautary in the
highest degree.
The Ne,os, BELL and Everett defers comment
until an official copy is received.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Tuesday, March s.
Opinions on Lincoln's inaugural are unfavora-
BILE, it is believed he will retake the forts and
forcbly collect the revenue. The opinions are
somewhat unsettled by its reception at Washing

Jackson, Miss, Columbus, Miss, and Tuscan
bia people consider il declaration of war. Al

ally considered silly production. At New Or

DETROIT Tuesday, March 5.

Republicans are in raptures over it, and Demo
Gratis apparently find little to condemn. The I'D
rertiser (Repblican) this morning says Mr.. Lin
coins position is such as will meet cordial
response in every patriotic heart in the land and
claims that while he is temperate and conciliatory
toward the South he proposes no concession.

temper of the inaugural and construction of the
Cabinet, we shall have secession of the border
States and war, while seeded States will receive
it a declaration of war and prepare for war.
