JeiFersOn,s First Inauguration.

Down at the Congressional Library
in Washington. is a musty old file OF
the National I;atelIigencer, from which
the following account of Mr.. Jeffer-
sons inauguration is taken:
At an early hour on Wednesday.
March 4, 1901, the city of Washington
presented a spectacle of uncommon an
imation. occasioned By the addition to
its usual population of large body OF
citizens from the adjacent districts. A
discharge from the company of Wash
ington artillery ushered in the day,
and about II o'clock the Alexandria
company of riaemen, with the compa-
ny of artillery, paraded in front of the
Presidents lodgings. AT Il o'clock
Thomas Jefferson. attended by num-
Der of his fellow citizens, among whom
were many members of Congress, re-
paired to the Capitol. His dress was.
as usual, that of plain citizen, with
cut any distinctive badge of Office. He
entered the Capitol under the discharge
of artillery. On his entry into the
senate chamber, where were assembled
the Senate and the House of Represen-
tives, the members rose. and Mr.. Burr
left the chair of the Senate, which Mr..
Jefferson took. After a few moments
of silence, Mr.. Jefferson rose and de-
livered his address before the largest
concourse of citizens ever assembled
here. Having seated himself for q
short period, he again arose, and ap-
preached the Clerks table, where the
oath was administered by the Chiei
Justice, after which he returned to his
lodgings, accompanied by the Vice
President, the Chief Justice, and the
heads of departments. where he was
waited upon by number of distin-
guished citizens as soon as he with.
drew, a discharge of artillery was
made The remainder of the day was
devoted to purposes of festivity. and
at night there was a pretty general
illumination.

twenty-eight inches long. Is worth $50
per pound. not counting the costly
shaded grades"
What is the matter with America
that you cannot buy the raw material
here?',
cit is the variable climate here, |
think. which seems TO impede the
growth Of hair. Fact is, hair doesn't
seem to grow long on American
women. and the only reason that can
be given is the strange freaks OF the
weather. Now, in Sweden the winters
are long and severe. but not capricious
in changes. The temperature remains
equable and Swedish women take pride
in cultivating a fine crop of hair for
the hair gatherer when< he comes
around late in the spring. American
women wouldn't sell their hair If they
had 1t. Money is not an object with
them when it comes to looks. No hair
is obtained from England for the rea-
son it doesn't grow long in the foggy
island. The hair from Italy is trashy,
and there is no doubt that if the raw
material was imported here direct, be-
fore being prepared in Paris, it might
contain germ of cholera, as a great
deal of it is cut from patients il hos
pitfalls. Hair from Italy might proper
ly be excluded with rags during a
cholera epidemic"

immigration to Louisiana.

Louisiana has not yet been able to
make big show in the matter of
immigration as the Northwestern
States do, or its neighbors, Texas
and Arkansas; and yet there is a
constant and steady dow of immi
grafton in this direction. It is the
beginning, perhaps, o: q larger
movement. for immigration gathers
force as it moves forward. The i'm
migrant who establishes himself. in
any locality, II he is pleased, makes
known its advantages among his old
friends and acquaintances at home,
and turns not few of them in that
direction,
It is only Of very recent years that
Louisiana has done anything what.
ever in the matter Of inviting immi.
grafton, apd it has done very little
as it is. Yet the movement is bet.
ter than it has been. Mr.. J. C..
Morrison, State agent of ihmigra.
tion abroad, reports that since June
he has forwarded to this State 100
immigrants from abroad, via the
port of New York. They consisted
of farmers, mechanics and laborers,
and the races contributing the bulk
Of the Immigrants were Germans,
Swedes, French and English. These
settlers all found work here, and
established themselves in various
portions of the State, where they
have so far been doing well. Four
days ago Mr.. Morrison forwarded a
sr,all colony Of Germans and Swedes,
who propose establishing themselves
in St. Tammany, to which parish
they will bring others, if they like
the country.
All Of this is not much to boast
o., it is true, when we hear Of the
wonders accomplished by other
States, yet it is a beginning. and il
is evident that With suitable efforts
We can secure q great deal OF lmml'
grafton. The colonists who come
here are nearly always pleased and
prosper. There il an abundance
of land and a demand for labor ol
all kinds, SO that what is good for
several hundred new comers a year,
would be equally good, it is natural
to presume. for several thousand, or
tens Of thousands. Louisiana was
formerly the largest recipient Of
foreign Immigration Of any OF the
Southern States. 1t can be made
so again with the proper energy and
interest displayed in securing this
capital Of muscle and skill.-7,me:

American, though We have the de-
scendents OF the Puritans, the chill
dren of France, the followers Of
Luther, the hardy, honest sons and
daughters of Erin, Scotia, and Scan
ainavia. One way, however, to
maintain permanent peace in this
country is to discountenance all com
binations Of foreign names, as aepa-
rate factors III our national politics.
Germans and Irish must be taught
to vote simply as Americans. We
want no German vote, no "Irish
vote," no Sweee VOTE" no negro
vote," as political watchwords or
balance OF power, but the votes of
men, who in spirit and interest are
now American. whatever their birth
and nationality. From distant lands
these strangers and adopted citizens
have come, fleeing from the oppres-
sion of monarchy, fron, poverty
from military rule from bloody re-
volutions, to the beautiful gates
which are never closed against the
