THE FIRST PRESIDENT.
Scenes Attending the First Inauguration OF
George Washington.

Ben. Perley Poore's "reminiscences.
William Dunlap, the artist. graphically de-
scribed the appearance of Washington and other
dignitaries at the first inauguration. The oath
was administered on the balcony of Federal
Hail, in Wall street, New York, where a statue
of Washington now marks the spot. This build
ing had been erected for the accommodation of
Congress- under the direction of Major L'Enfant,
a French officer of engineers, who afterward
planned the city of Washington. In front of
the balcony were the volunteer comDanies of
militia in full uniform, with a large concourse of
citizens. General Washington is described as
having worn on that day a plain suit of brown
cloth, coat, waiStcoat and breaches of home
manufacture, even to the buttons, on which Rol-
linson, an engraver, had portrayed the arms of
the United States. White silk stockings showed
the contour of a manly leg; and his shoes, accord
ing to the fashion of that day, were ornamented
with buckles. His head was uncovered and his
hair dressed and powdered, for such was the uni
versal custom of the time. Thus was his tall,
fine figure presented to our view at the moment
which forms an epoch IN the history of nations.
John Adams, a shorter figure, in a similarly plain
dress, but with the leven them old-fashioned
Massachusetts, wig. stood at Washington's
right hand, and opposite to the Presi-
dent-elect stood Chancellor Livingstone. in
a full suit of black, ready to administer
the prescribed oath of Office. Between them
was placed Mr.. Otis. the Clerk of the Senate. a
small man, bearing the Bible on a cushion. In
the background of the picture, and in the
rlS-lJ dItu ltAb compartments oIllc ny VIC
pillars, stood the warriors and sages of the revo-
luton.
When all was ready General Washington
stretched forth his right hand with that sim
plicity and dignity which characterized all his
actions. and place it on the open book. The
oath of Office was read, the Bible was raised
and he bowed his head upon it, reverentially
kissing it. The Chancellor then made proclama-
ton, God save George Washington, President
of the United States of America" A shout
went I'D from the multitude, cannons were fired
near by, the music played and every one ap-
peared delighted

MELVILLE AS MAD AS THE REST.
A Longing to Beard the White Bear in His
Den at the North Pole.

From Interview in Brooklyn Union
Engineer Melville said: you have no idea
how great is hefascination of arctic exploration.
When once INDUCED in it becomes as difficult to
give up as gambling"
WHEN do you intend to go to the north
again.
Il hope to sail on the steamer Bear when it
starts on the Greely relief expedition"
do you think that Lieutenant Greedy is
safer
Il do
DO you think that the north pole will ever be
reached!"
Il do, if we attempt to make a passage by
the way of Franz Josef Land"
What are the advantages to be gained from
all the suffering and loss of life incident to are
tic exploration
There are many advantages. If the pole is
reached vast amount of useful information will
be gained concerning the laws of storms and
wind waves. We will be able then to complete
the geography of the world and measure the
tiattening OF the earth at the poles. Additional
knowledge will be gained of astronomy, meteor
ology, ocean physics and natural history, the
thorough understanding of all of which directly
and indirectly adds to the comfort and safety Of
man. But do not ask me to enumerate all the
advantages that result from arctic explorations.

SENATOR sABIN ON ARTHUR.
The Views of the Chairman of the Repub-
lican National Committee.


Washington Dispatch to Philadelphia Times.
'FHe has not been a brilliant President said
Senator Sabin. In fact, you might almost say
that he has done nothing to characterize his
management of the affairs of the executive office.
Yet, sometimes it is a better exercise of skill to
do nothing than to attempt II measure of admin
~istration and do it bunglingly, or make it only a
means of exhibiting a degree of ineticiency. In
this sense, it is generally conceded that Presi-
dent Arthur has done we'll"
Should the convention take this turn of no
change, what would President Arthur's chances
of election beF' said l.
'That is q proposition which admits of a
double answer. In the first place, his chances
of election would depend entirely upon the way
he WAS nominated. If he should be nominated
by the machine. or through the manipulations
of the legion of office holders-customs officers,
postmasters, district attorneys, marshals and
that crowd-my opinion would be that his nom
nation would be worthless and he and the Re-
publican party would be worse beaten than both
we're in New York when Secretary Folger, the
administration candidate, ran for Governor. But
otherwise-that is, by nomination through the
spontaneous wish of the convention-he would
go through all right"
Apparently, Senator, you take no stock In the
machine"
"Well, not exactly that. We need organiza-
ton in political rs well as in military campaigns,
and you may call it the machine, or bossism, or
anything else; but what | mean TO convey is that
the delegates to the Chicago convention must 90
there in the interests of the whole party, and
any attempt to set them up through the interfer-
ence of officials or the barter of patronage for
delegates will be resented by the people. If the
convention indicates a fair and rea.Sa;y preference
for President Arthur he can be elected. and this
may be said of any of the other prominent can
didates named; but anyone nominated by the
usual tricks and trades of the convention Can
not be elected. We want concerted action by
the whole party"

question, sooner or later. The ward workers
and saloon strikers will slyly talk up the taxes
that must come from a new and big expense. No
matter if partisans oppose it and vote for it in
the board, it will be an effective tool that will be
used, and the p~artisans that stand in the way of
the lick will be hurt, that is all. Nothing hurts
a majority like money burdens that they could
have avsfted. The present is the first contro-
versy that has arisen in the school board, whether
of ~trustt>s or commissioners, in which the public
felt or spoke any concern since the first trustees
were appointed, thirty years ago. 1t is a sort of
crisis, and it is not to be wisely met by bulling
measures through at the will of the majority,
while the will of the people is unsettled or IN

Indiana Republicans in this city-friends of

statesmen. Neither of them is a candidate for
President. though both are sometimes spoken of

remains in the field. Indiana men say that
State will not present any name at the Chicago
conventions. Her delegates will go there unpledged
and prepared to support the hest man. wherever
he may come from. The Republican party in
that State is solid, united and harmonious, and
will not be distracted by ''jealousies," either be
fore or after the convention.
