FINANCIAL EsriNarB.-In u speech by
Hon. Samuel Hooper, in the U. S. House Of
Representatives, Mr.. II. gave his estimate Of
the revenue prospects Of the year to come, as
follows: i.fT
II tho measures are properly administered,
in the present. condition Of the country. the
annual revenue OF the Government will be
about $500 900 900, which is more than the
revenue Of the Government Of Great Britain,
IL we assume the dollar to he worth hum
dred cents in coin. This amount Of revenue
leaves surplus after paying the ordinary ex.
penses Of the Government, IA they were bc-
lore the war, and the interest on the public
debt a. il will DO ut tho close Of this fiscal
year. Of more than $500 900 900 to DO ap-
piled to the extraordinary expenses OF the
war. claim thar no country has ever done
90 much in the same space Of time to in.
crease its revenue. ...s.. ...,
he then showed that the Government had
already done more to sustain its credit than
Great Britain did during any year OF the

President Lincoln was innugurated for an

Overhead the weather was clear and beautiful,
but on account OF recent rains the streets were

was exceedingly large, and thousands proceeded
to the Capitol to witness the inauguration GER

President Lincoln had been ct the Capitol oil

eral bands ofmusic, two reoinents ofthe invalid
corps, and squadron OF cavalry, . battery
Of artillery and four companies OF colored
troops formed the military escort. The Mayor
and Councilmen Of Washington, visiting c0un-
o,lmen from Baltimore, the fremen OF this city.
aud the visiting 6remen from Philadelphia with
their engines were also In tho procession.
Among benevolent societies present wero lodges
OF Old Fellows and Masons, including q colOrcd
lodge of the latter. r ~. ..g.,
Tie public and principal private buildings
along pennsylvania Avenue were gaily dec0r.
ated with flags, and every window was thronge,l
With faces to catch glimpse o: the President.
The oath TO protect and maintain the Con.
stitutiou ofthe United States was administered
10 MIR. Lincoln by Chief Justice Chase In the
presence OF thousands who witnessed the cere-
mouy while standing In mud almost knee deep.
The inaugural was then read, after which = ma.

OF Gen. President Taylor, that "his mind

In short few men ever had more comforta.

SPEECH OF THE VICE PREsrpESr.-Before
taking the oath OF Office, Vice President
johnson made short speech to tho Senate,
nm abstract of which Is communicated by
telegraph:
He said by the choice Of the people he
had been made President Of tho Senate, and
in presenting himself here in obedience to
the behests Of the Constitution Of the Unit
cd States. it would perhaps not be out OF
place to rsmark just here what q striking
thing the Constitution was. II was the Con
stitution OF the people, Ut the country, and
under It here to-day, before the American
Senate, he felt that he was man and an
American citizen He would say to the Sen.
ators and Others before him, 10 the Supreme
Court which sat before him, that they all got
their power from the people Of this country.
Turning to Mr.. Chase. Mr.. johnson said,
your exaltation and position depend upon
the people. Then turning to the Cabinet
Ministers, he said, and will say to you. Mr..
Secretary Stanton, and to you, Mr.. Secretary
Welles, you oil derive your power from the
people. MIR. johnson then remarked that
the great element OF vitality In this govern.
ment was it's measures and proximity to the
people. lie wanted to say to all who heard
him, in the face Of the American people,
that all p,wer was derived from the people.
He would say in the hearing of the foreign
Ministers, for he was going to tell the truth
here to day. that he was q plebeian. He
thanked God for 1t. Il was the popular
heart Of this nation to su.tain the Cabinet
officials and the President Of the United
States. It was q strange occasion that called
forth plebciau like him to tell such things
as these. He next advcrted to affairs in Ten
nossee, and the abolition Of slavery there.
He thanked God that Tennessee was State
in the Union, and had never been out. The
State government had been discontinued for
tims-thers had been an intcrregnum, q
hiatus, but she had never been out of the
Union. He stood here to-day a. her repre-
sentative. On this day she would elect a
Governor and Legislature. and she would
very soon send Senators and members to Con.

TunpESrISE FROM PINE Lo0s -The Oxford
Democrat says that some enterprising young
men from Boston, have erected q building In
Oxford for manufacturing tar and spirits OF
OF turpentine from pine stumps, The Demo-
crst says that In the building there are four
large brick "Retorts," into which the pitch
wood Is put and turpcntine extracted. In this
process, tar is produced. while the volatile por
lions arc carried off and by the use OF con-
denser nre converted into spirit. Of turpentine.
The pitch wood. after having the pitch extract
ed In the retort, Is converted into fne article
OF charcoal and Is then used to heat the retorts.
One cord Of pitch wood will make three barrels
Of tar, and about Is gallons Of spirits. There
are pitch pine stumps enough In the vicinity OF
the Factory to last for years to come, which
the owners are very glad to get pulled up and
carried of out Of the wsy. This Is the only
Factory Of the kind In the state Its owners
are enegetc, enteprisipg young men, genuine
yankees, who understand how to make mon.
ey out Of 50 forbidding an article rs pitch
