President Grants Inaugural Address.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Inauguration
of the President took place ut noon. After
taking the oath of office General Grant said:
Citizens of the United States,-Your suf-
frage having elevated me to the office of Pre-
sident of the United States, J. have, in con-
formity with the Constitution of our country,
taken the oath of office prescribed therein.
have taken this oath without mental reserva-
tion and with the determination to do 10 the
best of my ability all that it requires of me.
The responsibilities Of the position feel, but
accept them without fear. The Office has
come to me unsought. l commence its duties
untramelled. / bring 10 ii the conscientious
desire and determination 20 fill it to the best
of my ability TO the satisfaction of the people.
On all leading questions agitating the pu bile
mind will always express my views 10 Con-
gress, and urge them according to my Judg-
ment, and when I think it advisable, will ex-
ercise the constitutional privilege of interpo-
sing veto TO defeat measures which oppose.
But all laws will be faithfully executed,
whether they meet my approval or not.
shall on all subjects have policy TO recon-
mend, but none 10 enforce against the will Of
the people. Laws are 10 govern all alike
those opposed TO as well as those who favor
them. I know no method to secure the re-
peal OF bad or obnoxious laws so effective
as their. stringent execution. The coun-
try having just emerged from u great re-
bellion, many questions will come before IL
for settlement In the next four years which
preceding administrations have never had to
deal with. In meeting theseit IS desirable that
