The Inauaurati0n.

Tho city of Washington was
crowded on Monday the 9th inst, to
witness the Inauguration Of Presi-
dent elect Hayes.
At eleven o'clock tho President
and the late President accompanied
by two members of the cammittee of
arrangements, proceeded in q car
riage to the east door of the north
wing of the C"r;'c' and entering
there, proceeded to the Presidents
room. The Vice Presilent-elect
was accompanied to the Capitol by n
member of tho committee of ar
rsngement, aud conducted to the
Vico Presidents room, aud after
ward into the Senate chamber where
the oath of Office was administered
to him by the Vice President The
diplomatic corps assembled in the
Marble room, and thence proceeded
in body to the Senate chamber.
The diplomatic corps and the justi-
ces OF tho Supreme Court entered
the Senate chamber q few minutes
before the President.
On reaching the portico tho Pres.
ident and the late President took the
seats provided for them on the front
OF the platform, the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court on their right
and the sergeant-at-arms of the
Senate on their left The committee
ofarrangements occupied posi- ion
in the rear Of the President and the
late President.
Hayes then delivered his inaugur-
al address. We have not the space
to give it in full for the present, but
copy the following abstract made by
one Of our exchanges. 1t is enough
to convince all that President Hayes

nee of the entire country.

The new law in reference to the FORE
closure Of mortgages does not meet with
much favor where its provisions are nnder-
stood. The principal objections urged by
the State press is the increased cost: but
there is another objection Of greater weight.
1t restricts the loauing Of money on bond
and mortgage, especially for small amounts,
by making the collections subject to laws
suits, not at the instance of the mortgagor,
whose rights were amply protected under
the old law, but in every case, even where
there is no contest whatever. There are
not many men who will be willing to lend
one, two or three hundred dollars, with the
certainty Of being forced into the courts
whenever there is default ID payment. The
new law, like usury laws, and other legis-
lation intended for the special benefit Of the
borrower. in its practical working will be
detrimental to the interests of that class, by
increasing the difficulties of obtaining mon
ey, and it will not be surprising if tho.
"Grangers' clamor for its repeal a. soon as
they have had opportunities Officiating its
operation.-Pioneer.
The "Grangers" had nothing to
do with procuring the passage of
this law. 1t is one of the products
OF that class who glory in calling
themselves "reformers." The Da-
kota county senator was, we believe,
its originator. That it is an unwise
law and one calculated to deeply in.
jure such farmers as are poor and
in need of assistance in the way of
small loans, no one can doubt, but
it is hardly fair for the Press to taunt
them with its enactment, because it
was introduced by a man who
claims to be their champion. The
vote he received for congress in
this district last fall ought to con-
vince everybody that that gentleman
is not authorized by the farmers of
Minnesota to speak in their behalf.

patriotic impulses, it will become
easy for them to put an end to ex-

they are unworthy Of the positions

President Hayes Cabinet.

The following are the appointees
for cabinet positions made by Presi-
dent Hayes; all Of which have since
been confirmed by the Senate:-
William NJ. Evarts, of New York,
Secretary of State.
John Sherman, of Ohio, Secretary Of
the Treasury.
George W. McCrary, of Iowa, Secre.
tary of War.
Richard W. Thompson, of Indiana,
Secretary of the Navy.
Charles Devens, of Massachusetts,,
Attorney General. ...
David NJ. Key, of Tennessee, POST
master General.
Carl Schurz, of Missouri, Secretary of
the Interior.
This is an unobjectionable cabinet,
SO far as we know. to the country
generally. Mr.. Evarts, the new
Secretary Of State, is we'll known
throughout the country as an able
lawyer and a consistent opponent
of political corruption, and he en-
Joys the confidence and esteem of
people generally of all parties. No
one doubts either his ability or in
tegrity. Mr.. Sherman, the new
Secretary of the Treasury, has been
in the Senate from Ohio for num-
Der of years. Heis a politician and
has been more or less mixed up
with all the political struggles that
have taken place during and since
the war, and, for this reason, it is
likely that he may have some active
enemies amongst those whom he
has necessarily opposed. His ap-
pointment is, no doubt, due to the
fact that he has attained considera-
BILE prominence as hnancier, hav-
ing made the subject an especial
study, to fit himself for discharging
the duties of chairman Of the fnan-
cial committee of the Senate.
Mr.. McCrary, the Secretary of
War, is an Iowa senator. He is a
gentleman of evenly balanced mind
and bears an enviable reputation.
Mr.. Thompson, the Secretary of
the Navy, is the Oldest man in the
cabinet and must be about seventy
five. He was very prominent twen-
ty-hve years ago as whig orator,
but of late years has seldom taken a
very active part in politics. He is
a most excellent man, of unsuspected
integrity.
Mr.. Devens, the Attorney Gener-
al, was Brigadier General in the
war and one Of the most scrupulous-
ly honorable officers in the army.
He was brave, efficient and kind to
his men, and only failed to obtain
promotion because he did not ask

"A correspondent asks our opin-
ion about the usury law We can
truly say that we have none. The
experience of the world proves be-
yond dispute that usury laws al
ways operate to the disadvantage of
the borrower, and aid an unprinci-
pied lender to impose upon his vic
TINS. Money is an article of COM
merce, and its price can no more
be regulated by law than can that
wheat. Suppose that the legisla-
ture was to pass were making it
an offence to take more than, say,
eighty cents per bushel for wheat,
is it not probable that farmers would
find some method for evading it :?
And if penalty were provided for
such evasion, that they would de-
mand enough more for their wheat,
when the demand greatly exceeded
the supply, to compensate them for
running the risk Of the penalty +?
The borrowing Of money is matter
of bargaining between the party
wanting and the party lending; and
the only way te avoid high rates OF
interest is for the government to
provide suficiency Of currency to
meet the demand Of trade. - .''"@
