The Inauguration,

The grand pageant of the second Inaugural
ton of President Grant at Washington on the
4th inst, is announced to have been a success
in spite of the fact that the day, though clear
was intensely cold. Pennsylvania Avenue
shOne Respondent with decorations, arches
flags and banners, and the grand military
parade surpassed anything Of the kind since
the return of the grand army in 1865. The
West Point Cadets, who were brought ovel
especially to add to the show, arc specially
commended for their perfect drill and neat
ness of dress and appearance.
The ceremonies were common place and
simple enough About II O'Clock the Prcsi
dent, Cabinet, heads of departments, &c, re.
paired to the Senate chamber where, after the
transaction of some routine business, Vice
President Colfax arose and made his farewell
speech, thanking the senate for their uniform
kindness TO him; claiming that, through his
entire public career, he had committed no act
which has proved the confidence reposed in
him by the people To have been misplaced !;
and closing with the announcement that the
session of this senate was now closed, he eX-
pressed his readiness to administer the oath
of office 10 his SUCCESSOR
Henry Wilson thcrcupon stepped to the
front, and the oath having been administered
TO him ny Mr.. Cofax, made very little
speech, and then called the new senate TO OF.

took thcir seats.
Then the senate adjourned and the entire

There is scarcely richer portion OF coun-

country village. The school house is no

and cost only $4,000. The principal is Prof.

CLOSING SCENES.

The last hours of congress, which died an
Monday night, were marked by the usual bus
tie, confusion, and reckless rush of business,
q vast amount of Objectionable legislation,
particularly in the way of the appropriation
of money from the treasury, being dragged
through by conference committees, while in
open session the members would have shrunk
from voting for such measures. Such were
the heavy Indian appropriations, the increase
OF salaries of congressman and judges, and
many other heavy appropriations for num-
berlcSs objects
