parade, all attest this fact.
The vice president-elect having advanced
to the foot of the presidents dais, there
took the oath prescribed by lew, after
which he was conducted TO seat at the
right of the president pro tenn. of the Sen
ate. That retiring officer rising. pronounced
his valedictory, at the conclusion of which
the great clock of the Senate, pointing at
the moment of meridian, he declares the
Senate adjourned without day.
The new president OF the Senate, the in
slant his predecessor retired from his seat,
took the chair. The retiring president de-
livered to him the ivory gavel, the insignia
of the authority of the body over which
he presides The vice president of the
United States and president of the Senate,
Mr.. Morton, after few Introductory re-
marks, proclaimed the Senate in session by

body of soldiers entered the Senate cham
Der accompanied by his predecessor and

On his right. The vice president then an
nounced from the chair: 'The sergeant

Upon reaching the platform on the
eastern portico the president-elect, chief
justice and committee Of arrangements oc-

OF the adoption of the constitution, and

EThere is no constitutional or legal requif-
ment that the president shall take the
oath of office in the presence OF the peo-
Pile but there is so manifest an appropri-
ateness in the public induction to the Office
of the chief executive officer of the nation
that from the beginning of the govern
ment the people, to whose service the
official oath consecrates the officer, have
been caused to witness the solemn cere.
monial. The oath taken in the presence
OF the people becomes mutual covenant.
The officer covenants to serve the whole
body of the people By a faithful execution
of the laws. so that they may be an ur-
failing defense and security Of those who
respect and observe them. and that neither
wealth, station nor power of combination
shall be able to evade their just penalties,
or to arrest them from a beneficent
public purpose to serve the ends
of cruelty or selfishness, My promise
is spoken, yours unspoken, but not less
real and solemn. The people of every state
have here their representatives. Surely, I
do not misirterpret the spirit Of the occa-
sion when assume that the whole body of
the people covenant with me and with each
other today, to support and defend the con-
stitution and the union of the states, to
