The following is the full text of Presi-
dent Harrison's inaugural address;
There is no constitutional or legal require
ment that the president shall take the oath of
Office in the presence of the people. But there
is so manifest appropriateness in the public
induction to Office of the chief executive officer
of the nation that from the beginning OF the
government the people, to whose service the
official oath consecrates the officer, have been
called to witness the solemn ceremonials The
oath taken in the presence of the people be-
comes a 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 the unfail-
ing defense and security of those
who respect and observe them and that neither
wealth, sta on nor the power of combinations
shall be al = to evade their just penalties or to
wrest them from benefcent public purpose to
serve the ends OF cruelty or selhshness. My
promise IS spoken yours unspOken. but not the
less real and solemn. The people OF every state
have here their representatives. Surely do not
misinterpret the spirit OF the occasion when |
assume that the whole body of the people COW
enant with me and with each other to-day to
support and defend the constitution and the
union Of the states TO yield willing obedience
10 all the laws, and each TO every other citizen
his equal civil and political rights. Entering
thus so!emnly into covenant with each other,
we may reverently invoke and confidently ex-
pect the favor and help OF Almighty God. that
He will give to me wisdom, strength and tidel-
ity and TO our people 4 spirit OF fraternity and
a love OF righteousness and peace.

A Rich and Esacy saarrEage.

On last Saturday a young man named
jenkins from near Warren county line
applied at the Registers office in Halifax
for marriage license, to marry one Miss
Fannie Wilson who accompanied him.
On being questioned closely he SAID he
was running from another man. He was
told to send back for certificate from the
girls parents. A man was sent and the
lovers remained in Halifax. Pretty soon
another fellow named Lilly came upon
the scene and claimed the''sweet SIXTEEN
as his prize. He said while he was gone
to Warren county for his license the girl
eloped with the other fellow and he had
come all the way to claim her for his
one on either side of the girl on a sofa in
the pa lors of the Southern hotel. Each
one holding with determined grasp the
girls hand, threw his other arm around
her neck and begged her to marry him.
The girl was being caresSed on either
side at the same time by rival lovers, and
honeYed words of alluring sweetness
were poured into her ear on the right by
Jenkins, while tho same performance
was drenching her auditory nerves on the
left at the same time by Lilly.
Ever and anon the Responding rivals,
by turns, would let go their hold around
the dear ones neck, and in the wild hope
lessness Of torturlng despair, would walk
away. only to return in short while to
renew the pressing suit in words of I'M
dying love and In declarations of life
long constancy and untrlng devotion.
So the process of wooing continued until
Sunday afternoon when the father of the
girl with the father Of sutton No. /,
Jenkins, appeared upon the scene. At a
certain interval Of the performance, some
mischievous boys told Lily that his be-
loved had escaped him again (She was
still in the hotel) He walked out on the
streets in serrch Of the first trace of her
wanderings from his embrace, and look
ing down in the road he saw the imprint
of some delicate foot, and exclaimed,
"She's gone! III swear that's her track
The girls father decided the matter, and
she agreed to marry Jenkins. Lilly en-
braced her and kissed her good bye and
said, Fannie, l love you! AS long as
Lilly has got anything you shall never
want" He burst into a loud sobbine
groan, made his way out through blind
| ing tears and left his treasure il the arms
of his rival.
The marriage ceremony was perform &c
at 4 O'Clock by NJ. II. CLARK, Esq. which
made Jenkins and Fannie Wilson mar
and wife in the presence of a hundred
earnest spectators.
The bride and groom occupied the
bridal chamber in the Southern Hote
till Monday, and then rejoicinglT spec
away to their home, Fannie knowing
little about il except she was married tc
one OF her LAYERS, and Jenkins caring FOL
nothing Of it all except to rejoice over his
hard-earned victory and the preclou:
prize which he so gallsntly had won.
