b5 Mr.. Blaine on the 4th inst, upon his
election as Speaker of the House of Rep.
resentatives:
| Gentlemen of the House of Repre-
tatives: l thank you profoundly for the
great honor which your votes have inst
conferred on me. The qualification
which this signal mark of your conf
dence brings to me finds its only draw
back in the diffidence with which L as
sumo the weighty duties devolvcd upon
me. Succeeding to a chair made illus
trious by such p Parliamen tarians as CLAW.
Stevenson, Polk, Winthrop, Banks.
Grow, and Colfax, may well distrust
my ability to meet the just expecta-
tions of those who have shown me such
marked partiality. But relying.g gentle-
all. my duties faithfully and fearlessly,
and trusting in large measure to the
indulgence which am sure you will al
ways extend to me, shall hope to re-
tain, as l have secured your confidence,
your kindly and generous support
The forty first Congress assembled at
an auspicious period in the history of
our government n no Sptcuuiu anu Aui-
pressive ceremonials which we have just
witnessed in anotherlpart of the capitol
appropriately symbolizes the trIumphs OF
the past and the hopes of the future. a
great chieftain, whose sword, at the head
! of gallant and victorious armies, saved
the republic from ruin, has been fitiy
called to the highest civic honor which a
grateful people can bestowy sustained by
Congress that SO ably represents the
loyal patriotism and personal worth OF
the nation. The President this day in
augurated will assure the country an adj
ministratiou of purity and prosperity, an
era of liberty, regulated. by law, and OF
law thoroughly inspired of liberty
Congratulating you on the happy augu-
ries Of this day. and invoking the graei-
Gus blessings of Almighty God on the
arduous and responsible labors before
you, L am now ready to take the oath Of
ofice and enter upon the discharge Of
the duties to which you have called me

with provisions for the remainder OF their
days. They told me they had buried one

since the departure of the nation I re-
mained with them but one day-crossed
the great river, and made my way to the
clay hill. 1 found it was no longer clay
but iron, which satisfied me of the
truth of the old mans story.
/ continued my wanderings about a
thousand years, when I came upon the
great mountains, known as the Rocky
Mountains, and to my JOY and surprise.
I met with some of the descendants of
my old friends. And remote as they
were from those ancestors with whom
was acquainted and had mingled, they
had the same passion for making bowls,
and were daily prospecting for clay, (but
had not then found any,) and in conse-
quence of being on the e"everlasting dig" ("
they were called digger Indians

P. S. 1t is proper that should ex-
plain the cause of my captors being so
far from their big town, when they took
me prisoner. After learning their lau-
guage one of them told me that they had
been chasing an old bull mammoth for a
great many days, and had some hopes of
capturing him, as he seemed somewhat
weary when he reached the river, (the one
| Immediately afterwards crossed) but as
soon as he discoyered that his enemies
were surrounding him, be backed three
times his length from the river, and with
that short run and mighty bound, he
cleared the stream, four hundred yards
in w !, and cooking bis tail at an angle
of forty FIVE degrees, bore for the regions
of the Great Bear.

ronisms in the foregoing-for the which

PENNSYLVANIA CENTRAL Rail-
RoAD.--There are none of the great
through routes from the East to the
West which are so successful in at
tracting the travelling public as the
Pennsylvania Road. The great rea-
sons for this are its natural advantages
of location as the most direct route
to New York and Philadelphia, and
the most convenient and reliable to
Washington City; and offering, as it
does to the public, the greatest COM
forts in The way of eommodious and
elegant cars, good eating stations,
fewer changes, and time equal to that
of any competing road. We take oc-
casion to call attention to this road
now, as many of our readers in Lndi-
ana, Illinois and Kentucky are ex-
pecting, toward the last of next
month, to visit Washington City to
witness the inauguration ceremonies
Of General Grant and Schuyler Col
fax, and are now lnquiring for the
best route to the National Capital.
We have no hesitation in recommend
ing the Pennsylvania Central to them.
after having passed over all theroutes.
