The INAUGURATIoN.-A Washington dis
patch says that the inauguration procession
will be the largest and most imposing demon
stration ever witnessed in that city. The min
iature ship Constitution, which figured in the
inaugural procession of Buchanan in 1857, and
has been laid up in the ship house of the Navy
Yard ever since, is to be in the inaugural line
on the Fourth under the auspices of the Sixth
Ward Republican Club. As she is now being
refitted for the purpose, she will be fnll rigged
and equipped, will have stern and quarter
boats, and anchors and chains, arranged in
regular man-of-war style. On the sides she
will have formidabe-looking batteries, and will
be manned by youths in sailor costume. The
car containing the ship will be drawn by six
richly caparisoned horses.
President johnson has been SO good as to
indicate to Gen. Grant that he is willing to
made no reply.
The Inauguration of Gen Grant will be the
twenty-first event of the kind since the adop-
ton of the Constitution, unless the swearing
into Office of Messrs. Tyler, Fillmore and John
son be so dign;fed. But although there have
been twenty inaugurations of President, yet
only fourteen individuals have been elected to
the Office, six of them-Wa ashington, Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe, jackson and Lincoln
having been twice chosen. Three Presidents
have died in ofice-Harrison, Taylor and Lin
coln-the first after serving one month, the
the second sixteen months and four days, and
the third six weeks, lacking some hours, of his
second term. Since the time of Washington
the entrance OF the chief magistrate into Office
has been celebrated with more or less nomn
and it is probable that the scenes Of neTt
Thursday will be quite as brilliant as any be-
fore.
President Pierce was the first since Wash
ipgton who delivered his inaugural address
after taking the oath, alb the others having
taken the oath afterwards. 1t is not stated
what course Grant will pursue in this respect

VARIOUS FACTS AND RUMoRs ABOUT GRANT
Gen. Grant is giving great attention to his
brief inaugural address. He converses with
competent parties on topics that he proposes
to treat, but submits his manuscript to no one.
Among Grants visitors on .Monday-and
there was a fearful number of them-was
Hannibal Hamlin, Senator elect from Maine
A New York clergyman who called at
headquarters Monday afternoon was informed
by Gen. Grant, with evident satisfaction, that
an old lady who had gone out of the audience
room as he (the clergyman had entered
wanted to know who the Cabinet were to be-
as she had a large house to be rented and
thought that one .of them might like it, "I
told her" continued Gen. Grant-"to read the
newspapers, but she replied that she had yet
found nothing in them about the Cabinet at
all reliable" This appeared to please the
President elect much.
Gen. Grant sent to the State department.
Monday to learn what had been the custom
among Presidents heretofore as to the date of
appointment of Cabinet officers. 1t was found
that as general thing the nominations have
been made within very few days after the
Inauguration of President; two days being
about the average time. 1t is expected, in
view of the fact that the present members of
the Cabinet will resign on the Sd of March,
thus leaving the heads of departments vacated
that Gen. Grant will nominate his Cabinet on
the day after his Inauguration.
No NAMES are mentioned by the Machias
Republican il thus describing an obnoxious
kind of newspaper. but nobody will fail to
make proper application of the language:
There are some papers, nominally Republi-
can, but which are afflicted aoith chronic sore
head, either from fancied wrong which they
have received from some official quarter, or,
what is perhaps more likely, dyspeptic,
crOchety, gnarled organization, which are con-
tinually furnishing food for Democratic oppo-
nents to thrive Oh. . Nothing can be more
sldnderous or dishonest, and the pretention of
such papers to be thoroughly Republican, has
been about as disastrous to the pdrty as aoOa ID be
the introduction of Satan into the kingdom of
heduen, to the unity and peace of that holy place.
These papers call themselves ertra
the hidden springs of their actions, they would
find those actions to proceed from something
quite different from honesty. When bitter
partizan papers publish approvingly denun-
Citations of the Republican party from pro-
fessed Republican papers, it is well to under
stand that they are actuated by false motives,
and therefore ought to be discarded as relia-
BILE vehicles of truth.

The HAvRETY CASE vIvED.-Neao
Orleans, April 26.-The Picayetae this eve
ming, in leader, revives the Havrety case
of Corpus Christi. After reciting the
former facts Of the case, it Gays: i" Havrety
went through here few weeks ago to Cor
pus Christi to attend his trial, but Rey-
nolds having been restored, new judge
was appointed, and Havrety's bail bond
has been forfeited and he returned to Jail
such sureties being required that he could
not give them. His counsel were not al
lowed to speak, and we're fined twice for
attempting it. When he was tried first
the sheriff, who is the prosecutor, invaded
the jury-room and attempted to drive the
jury into verdict of guilty. The whole
object of the prosecution is to force money
out of the victim. Chicago certainly ought
to come to his rescue. Will not Mr.. Medill,
Of the Tribune, who saw him in our office
when he was on his way to Corpus Christi,
endeavor to put an end to this unexam-
Piled persecution ?"
Havrety was kidnapped from Chicago
and taken to Corpus Christi without being
allowed the privilege of giving bail, but
was released on bail, owing to the inter-
vention Of General Hancock.

WAS about seventy feet wide, and was
rapidly increasing. No work was, at last
accounts, being done to stop it, and no
hopes were entertained that it could be
done. 1t vas understood, however, that
the culyerts on tho railroad track were
being stopped to prevent the water flowing
above it. The effect Of this break will be
to inundate all the country below as far,

AN ADRoIr THIEF.-Two or three days
since we'll dressed and gentlemanly-ap-
pearipg young man visited one of the prin-
cipal jewelry stores on Washington street
and desired to look at some earrings with
drops or pedals attached. Several sets
were shown him, but none suited until he
came to very valuable pair Of heavy fine
gold earrings with diamond settings, which
were in neat morocco case, and which he
examined with a particular minuteness.
On ipquiring the. cost, he remarked that
they were just the article he wished, but
not having sufficient money about him then,
he would call and get them the next day if
they could be laid aside for him. This was
agreed to, and the individual left the store,
but has not yet made his second appear
anoe. 1t has since been ascertained that
while examining the articles ne managed
to exchange the morocco case and contents
for another similar case, which contained
almost fac s;mile Of the valuable jewelry,
but which proved on inspection TO be OF
little or no value, as the metal is more like
Attleboro jewelry than gold, and instead Of
the settings being diamonds they are no.
thing but paste. The trick was most
adroitly performed. -Boston journal, Aprs!
