The Presidents inaugural address is CON-
nerted upon as modest, practical and pity.
Among the more significant utterances of the
inaugural 10 the decided position In behalf of
equal rights for the cOlored race, in regard es-
tecialiy 70 schools, public conveyanees and ho-
tels; his cheerful acceptance of the rejection of
the San Domingo project, coupled with the
declaration that he viii not again urge the ac-
QUESTION of territory without the support of the
people; and his concise outline of the purposes
OF the adm nistration. including the statement
that the plan Of civil service reform viii be
continued The latter enunciation will doubt
less have happy effect in discouraging the
thousands of hungry sspirsnts for Office The
Presidents allusion to the abuse heaped upon
him in the late campaign is pointed but digui-
he'd. and shows that while too sturdy to be de-
pressed by such SANDERS, he has proper sen
sitiventss to such undeserved attempts TO de-
Ireciate him in the good opinion of his country
men.

he bad called for now crime. Among the
ioint-stock companies recently wound up In
London was one which for simplicity and
ingenuity deserves praise beyond Its own
immediate circle. It's promoters, directors,
and shareholders numbered only two, and
they, based their operations on a regulation
OF the Metropolitan Board Of Works. That
body has been frequently troubled by the
bad conduct of contractors and their men.
who. instead of removing street-mud,
have simply shot Il down the next sewer
an operation that, if not detected ut
once, leaves no clue to the offender,
though there may be many traces Of
the crime. To deter the contractors from
such bad habits. the board has been in the
habit of giving u reward of f2 los. to any
inforlner who helped to prosecute any per-
son detiling the sewers with mud. and on the
conviction of the criminal Il fine of los was
usually imposed On basis so simple two
ingenious persons built their scheme. One
of them put down the mud, the other gave
the information; the first Was fined l0S., the
second obtained 60 los. Uniting their
forces, the fine was first recouped, and then
each of the conspirators had pound for
himself. BY repeating the operation at sew
eral parts of the metropolis, and changing
the parts. very sufficient livelihood was
earned unhappily the plan has been de-
tected, and the Board OF Works has incon-
sidcratelv reduced the reward TO los, the
exact amount of the fine, thus leaving no
margin as a stimulus to cNertion. We only
hope that the talents of the inventor Of this
scheme will not altogether he lost to society.
