The Inauguration.

The ceremonies attending the in
auguration Of President Garfield
far exceeded in magnificent display
and in popular demonstration those
of any President the United States
have ever had. Washington City
was filed to overfowing, and the
inaugural was witnessed By twenty
five or thirty thousand people.
The only incident to mar the day
was the behavior of two military
organizations from Philadelphia;
the Legion OF Harmony behaved
like q gang of roughs, and the
Union Republican Club refused to
march in the procession, after ha7.
ing taken position, because they
had been assigned to the division
Of Gen. Fields, an ez-Confederate
General. !

years have been advised and en-
treated to establish this cheap
mode of dealing with petty crimi
nails. If It were possible to estab-
lish the whipping post in this State
We should be very sorry to see it
done; it is no use to discuss the
reasons why, because it can not be

sire of his father, DR.. Marion Sims,
Of New York, that his two sons shall
have the faulty uaue changed in or.
der to perpetuate the naue by which

his SOUS shall be kuown as the offspring
of DR.. Marion Sims. the founder of the
WoDaus Hospital and one OF the
great surgeons of the nineteenth
century, who hopes to found separate
brauch If the numerous Sins family.

for the St Louis Sims, and is sufficient
ly distinguished as l. lawyer to render
it probable that he will meet with as
much success as the learned COUNSEL
of young DR.. Sims in New York. Un-
der the laws of Missouri the Circuit
Court has full authority to change any
