HONOR AND RESPONSIBILITY.

~-~N~~ @N--N@
1 acknowledge before this assem-
blage, representing as it does every
section of the country, the obligation
1 am under to my countrymen for
the great honor they have conferred
on me, by returning me to the high
est office in their land, and the furth-
er obligation resting on me to render
them the best services within my
power. This promise, looking for
ward with the greatest anxiety to the
day when I shall be released from re-
sponsibilities that at times are almost
overwhelming, and from which have
scarcely had respite since the event
full warning upon Fort Sumter in
April, 1861, to the present day. Ny
services were then rendered and ac-
cepted under the first call for troops
growing out of that event. I did not
ask for place or position, and was en-
tirely without influence or the ac-
quaintance of persons of influence,
but was resolved to perform my part
in struggle threatening the very
existence of the nation. I performed
a conscious duty without asking pro-
motion or command, and without a
revengeful feeling toward any section
or any individual. Notwithstanding
this, throughout the war; and from
my candidacy for my present Office
in 1868, to the close of the last presi-
Dental campaign, 1 have been sub
ject of abuse and SANDER scarcely
ever equalled in political history,
which to-day 1 feel that I can afford
to disregard, in view of your verdict,
which I gratefully accept as my vim
dlcatlOn.
The Presidents voice was not aud
ible except to persons on or near the
platform, and, consequently, there
were no manifestations of applause
or otherwise during its delivery,
which occupied less than ten minutes
and was completed before the large
part of the assemblage not directly in
range of view, knew it was commenc
ed.
At the conclusion of the address
the President was warmly congratu-
lated by his friends, and soon after
left in his carriage for the White
escorted by the procession,
which had reformed and taken up the
line of march.

THE coLoRED CITIZEN.

The effects of the late civil strife
have been to free the slave and make
him citizen; yet he is not possessed
of the civil rights which citizenship
should carry with it. This is wrong
and should be corrected, and to this
correction I stand committed so far
as Executive influence can avail.
Social equality is not a subject to be
legislated upon, nor shall I ask that
anything be done to advance the So
.cial status of the colored man, except
to give him fair chance to develop
what there is good in him. Give him
access to schools, and when he trav-
els let him feel assured that his con
duct will regulate the treatment and
fare he viii receive.

THE PRESIDENT'S SECOND
INAUGURAL.
Ilow Cltlzenr Of the unlted states: :

Fellow Citizens of the United States:
Under Providence 1. have been
called second time to act as the
Executive over this great nation. 1t
has been my endeavor in the past to
maintain all the laws, and as far as
lay in my power to act for the best
interest of the whole people, and my
best efforts viii be given in the same
direction in the future, aided, I trust,
by my four years experience in the
Office.
THE PAST FOUR YEARS.
When my first term of the Office OF
Chief Executive began, the country
had not recovered from the effects of
a great internal revolution, and three
of the former States of the Union
had not been restored to their federal
relations. It seemed to me wise that
no new question should be raised, so
long as that condition of affairs exist
ed; therefore the past four years, so
far as L could control events, have
been consumed in the effort to re
store harmony, public credit, com
merce and all the arts of peace and
progress.
THE GUIDING STAR.
1t is my firm conviction that the
civilized world is tending toward Re
pubicanism, or government by the
people, through their chosen repre-
resentatives, and that our own great
Republic is destined to be the gnid-
ing star to all others. Under our
Republic we support an army less
than that of any European power of
any standing, and navy less than
that of either of at least five of them.
There could be no extension of terri
tory on this continent which would
call for an increase of this force, but
rather might such extension enable
us to diminish it.

American IIIiteracy.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial has been looking
to the forthcoming report of the Commits
sioner of Education (Col John Eaton,
formerly of this State), and says it will
contain the following significant passage
upon American illiteracy:
"Who can speak boastlngly Of Ameri-
can intelligence with n knowledge of
the fact that over seventeen per cent.
of the adult males of the country,
who are essentially all voters. are
illiterate, aud that nearly one-fourth
of the adult females lover twenty three
per cent. are in the same condition?
But the amount Of intelligence in the
country, as tested by the capacity to
read and write, is not limited to these
adults. The census does not give those
under ten who can not write or can not
read. but we make an estimate on the
basis that the same percentage holds
GOOD as in the case OF those over ten,
and we find that out Of the 80 ,555,37 OF
the population of the United States Of
all ages II, 1876, 799 or 3l47 per cent of
the total population must be excluded
from any estimate which would ascer-
tain the number who are able, through
reading and writing, to exchange infor-
nation with others for the guidance of
their conduct"

The An,iauI1Ies Of Egypt.

An address, signed by seventy promi-
nent travellers, was recently presented
TO the Viceroy Of Egypt, asking him to
take measures for the preservation of
the temples and monuments on the Nile.
The corrosions Of time, it is sand, are
not so much to be guarded against as
the destruction caused by tourists. A
short time ago three travellers, mounting
on the head Of the great Sphinx, ehiseled
of large piece Of one ear, and choice
specimens Of hierOglyphies are con-
stantly broken of and. carried away.
The dry climate displaces the granite
masses, and the yearly rise Of the Nile.
undermines the columns Of the temples.
As remedy, it is proposed that Gus
todian shall be placed at each important
ruin. 10 collect an entrance fee, and that
the funds 90 raised be devoted 10 the
preservation Of the monuments. Pen
allies are TO be imposed for mutilating
the ruins and for violating the code Of
rules to be posted at each entrance.
