THE INAUGURATION.

The ceremonies attending the inaugura
ton of President Cleveland at Washington
last Wednesday we're of the most Imposing
and elaborate description, and were atten-
ded and witnessed by an immense throng
of people-larger, probably, than had ever
before assembled at one time i'll the Ma
tional Capital. The elaborate programme
prepared by the committee Of arrange
ments was carried out in every detail with
out hitch or obstructioneof any moment
to mar its execution.
The Presidents inaugural address was
temperate, conservative, patriotic, and has
produced most favorable impression
throughout the country. In next issue Of
the CHIEF we shall endeavor to publish the
address in full, or give such a complete
synopsis as to include all the salient points.
The procession that followed the inaugu-
ration and the ball with which the ceremo-
MES concluded at night we're both nagniti-
cent affairs. Political organizations from
all parts of the nation participated in the
parade, and large numbers of the prom
inent men of both parties united in giving
eclct to the installation of the new regime.
President Arthur was conspicuous figure
in the formalities attending the transfer
of the Presidency to his successor, and
the opinion has already been widely ex-
pressed that Mr.. Cleveland will be fortu-
nate if, at the close of his term, he can
retire from Office with q record as clean
and oreditable as that of President Arthur.
The restoration of the Democratic party
to the control of the general government
has occurred under highly favorable auspi-
ces: it remains to be seen whether its con-
duct will bs such as to Justify the conf
dence of the people and warrant its contin-
uanee in power.

TIFF GARNET.

On Thursday President Cleveland nomi-
mated the members of the new Cabinet,
and the list is identical with that published
in the CHIEF last week, with the single ex-
ception that Messrs. Whitney and Endicott
change places, the former being named for
Secretary of the Navy and the latter for
Secretary of War. The appointments we're
as follows:
Secretary of State-T. F. Bayard> of Del
aware.
Secretary of the Treasury-Daniel Man
ming of New York.
Attorney General-Ausustus e. Garland
Secretary OF the Interior-L. @. G. Lamar
of Mississippi.
Postmaster General-Wm. F. Villas of
Wisconsin,.
Secretary Of War-Wm. G. Endicott of
Massachusetts.
Secretary Of the Navy-Wm. G. Whitney
of New York.
The nominations we're transmitted to the
Senate Thursday morning, but on objection
being made by Senator Riddleberger to
their immediate consideration they were
laid over until Friday. The Virginia Sena-
tor is said to have declared his intention of
opposing the confirmation Of Mr.. Bayard
on account of the latter's alleged un-Amer-
lean sentiments, but Mr.. Riddieberger was
induced to reconsider his course and on Fri
day the entire Cabinet was confirmed with
out objection.
While there is some dissatisfaction with
the selections on the part of the friends OF
prominent Democratic leaders and States
not represented, the general verdict is that
the President has chosen very strong and
ahle Cabinet

Her age was "a years aad / months. She

The Edmunds bill to place Gen. Grant on
the retired list passed the House of Repro

plauded vociferously, and the approval thus
expressed will be reechoed Throughout the
whole country.

THE MURPHY MURDERERS CON-
VTHTED.

The second trial of the men charged with
| the murder of "Cap" Andrew n. Murphy
in New Orleans ended at midnight last
Saturday with an unqualified verdict of
guilty as to Pat. Ford and John Murphy
| and of manslaughter against Thos. J. Ford,
Buckley and Cauitield. The evidence was,
in the main, repetition of that adduced
on the first trial, and the case Of the State
was made out clearly and fully. The at
tempt of the defense to prove that Murphy
attacked Pat. Ford and fired the first shot
| only served to show more conclusively than
before that E. conspiracy had been formed
to cover up foul and premeditsted assas-
sination by perjury Of the raukest descrp-
ton. The accused we're ably represented
by"Judge Braughn, Messrs Walker, Noise
Adams, Attorney General Cunningham,
Judges Lrzenherg and Whitaker, and the
arguments of these counselors were able,
exhaustive snd eloquent. The jury, which
was composed of excellent material, occu-
pied but half an hour in reaching conclu-
sion.
Thirty three bills of exception we're taken
BY the defense, all Of which will be passed
upon i'll the Supreme Court when the case is
brought before that tribunal on appeal.
motion for q new trial has been filed
and Judge Baker has fixed 'Tuesdey next as
the day for its consideration. Should this
ha ;e9 elo
affirm the rulings of Judge Baker and the
finding of the jary-and, peradventure, the
prerogative of executive c!emency be with
he.d-Pat. Ford and John Murphy will ex-
plate their crime upon the scaGo:a, while
the other three accused will be consigned TO
the penitent1ary for terms not exceeding
twenty years each.
Although the verdict probably failed to
meet popular expectation or to vindicate
the ends of perfect justice-ihasmuch as
Judge Ford, the ringleader and instigator
of the plot against Murphy's life, was con
vioted Of the lesser ofense, while his devo-
ted brother and ignorant cousin. the mere
instruments of his vengeance and superior
craft, were adjudged guilty in degree
deserving the death penalty-yet it was suf-
ticient to redeem in great measure the I'M
savory reputation the city OF New Orleans
was rapidly acquiring for lawlessness and
Disregard of human lie. The growing i'm
preston that official position and political
influence endowed the possessor with en-
tire immunity from punishment for crime
has been checked, but few more steps in
the same direction are needed to convince
trial was not notable exception serving to
prove the contrary rule.
