The Inauguration.

The Inauguration of Gen. Garfield
as President of the United States on
yesterday was no doubt grand affair.
The extensive preparations and the
cheap facilities for travel, together with
the Importance of the occasion all COM
bined to bring together perhaps the
largest attendance ever witnessed on q
similar occasion.
The Republicans have occasion for
general rejoicings, not at the triumph
of the party merely, but at its recov-
cry from forlorn hope and foregone de-
feat which stared them in the face for
many months after the nomination of
Gen. Hancock. The fact that they
now have a President, whose election
is not only unchallenged but fairly con-
coded under the fosms OF law, in con-
trast with one they forced on the
country four years ago against, and in
utter violation of. all these bulwarks
of our liberties, is no ordinary cause of
selfgratulation to that party.
We hope that the new President will
exhibit in his administration that abil.
ity which he has the credit Of possess
ing, and that this will enable him to
rise above party shackles and party
purposes so far as to forget all sectional
lines, and make himself the President
of the whole Union in fact as he is in
theory. Never had a man a finer
opportunity to rise to this exalted plane
of patriotism than Gen. Garfield has
to-day.

The Governors Message.

Gov. Hawkins submitted his mes
sage to the Legislature on the 25th
nit, and as it is very lenghthy docu-
ment we cannot publish it in full, but
will give his suggestions and recon-
mendations as far as practicable.
He suggests a revision of the assess
ment laws SO as to equalize taxation
more nearly and increase the revenues
of the State. He recommends an in
crease in the jurisdiction of Justices of
the Peace, as well as that of Criminal
Judges, so as to avoid the delays of
the law under the present system. He
also suggests that the Legislature in its
wisdom relieve the Supreme Court in
some way of its crowded docket. He
suggests that something be done to rem
der the penitentiary more adequate and
secure, either by building new one or
repairing the old one. He recommends
the establishment of "Reformatory
School, for youthful criminals. He
simply commends the subject of TEN.
perance to the Legislature as.one that
cries abound for legislation. The regu-
lation Of railroad freights is merely
mentioned, and some wise and cautious
action suggested. The grave consider
alton of the Legislators is asked for the
passage of a road law, but no plan
suggested. Plenty of fish and good
health are freely recommended, and
mob violence as freely condemned.
Public schools and charitable institu-
tons come in for their usual share of
good will and good words. The State
debt fills long chapter without a NOR
al, and is turned off without a word of
suggestion to the practical wisdom of
the Legislature, He finally rides out
of the breakers on the glittering genei-
alities of agriculture, commerce and
navigation.
His suggestions in the main are good
but they are too shallow for the stern
realities that now beset us State. We
want something more than suggestions
and recommendations, We want plans
and purposes unequivocally expressed.

him the right to decide. That he is
fully competent to do 80 no one. we
presume, will deny, for he is a man of
extraordinary judgment, as we'll as the
finest sense of propriety. He has
shown not only extraordinary talents
as military commander, but the finest
judgment and common sense os states.
man and civilian.
With such record as he has made
in all these relations he can well afford
to place beneath his feet the petty jeal
ousies and narrow prejTdices Of meanel
minds, and stand as the proudest figure
in that august pageantry of civic anC
military display, with popular major
ity of eight thousand votes Of the
American people for President. Be
sides all this, he is the commander O

to be there is to be at the post of duty
which he was never known to shun o.

AeFair. Start. Review of BOOxs.

At the opening of a promiscuous
spelling match, a little boy said "Now,
grandfather, lets start fair. You take
the word Nebuchadnezzar and I'll take
the word cat"
This boy was a true philosopher,
and if our grandfather pedagogues
would only practice his philosophy,
they would lessen their own labors as
well as advance their pupils much more
rapidly. 1t was, indeed, "fair start"
to put the boy on word Of three let
tiers while his grandfather should en-
counter one with fourteen. 1t is "fair"
to 81 ppose that the boy knew as much
about cat as his grandfather knew
about Nebuchadnezzar.
The plan of the old Biographies is
the same as that which would have
started the boy and the old man both
together, on the word of fourteen let
tiers. A geography that requires be-
ginner to name and describe all the
bodies of water in the world, from the
rivulet to the ocean, and all the divis-
ions of land, from the least island to
the largest continent, with their boun-
daries, extent, surface, fertility and
mountain ranges, is as puzzling to him
as the mysterious dream was to tie
king who had this hard name, and
which daniel alone could interpret.
Mitchells New Series of Geogr :
phies are constructed on the opposite
plan, each book being complete work
of itself, on geography giving only
such and so much of each subject as
the learner can comprehend and retain
in memory as knowledge, upon which

ExtempOraneOus Inaugural.

Gen. Garfield is perhaps one of the
best extepporaneous speakers in the
United States, and intended on yester-
day, contrary to the usual custom, to
deliver his inaugural address without
manuscript or note, in bis usual method
of address. This has not been done
since the days of President Franklin
Pierce, who was an old time orator and
statesman.
While this is all well enough, Gen.
Garfield should not forget the philoso-
ply and good sense contained in an off,
hand speech made by colored brother
in a class meeting. Being called on to
tell how he felt, he arose and said :
"My dear brudleren, dis here cuPard
niger feels jes like he could talk more
good in five minutes dan he can do
good in five years"
