of Pennsylvania and Maryland among
the Middle States; of Georgia, North
and South Carolina and Louisiana in
the South; and of Wisconsin in the
far West participated in the national
ceremonies and thereby emphasized
the complete restoration of national
unity.
More interesting and, significant
even than this, perhaps, in the eyes of
other nations and the historian, were
the manifestations of the marvellous
growth of the country in population
and power, and the fact that this mo-
mentous and majestic change in the
government of sixty-five millions of
people was accomplished according to
cut and dried formula, every step of
which was planned and publicly an
nounced beforehand, and without
noticeable disturbance of public inter
ests or the creation of any excitement
except that naturally accompanying a
great national pageant aud the influx
of two or three hundred thousand
sight-seers into the capital.
lAE hlDE ~ LIE CAHIIOL.
Shortly after IL o'clock Presi-
dent elect Cleveland and Vice. Presi-
dcnt-elect Stevenson, accompanied by
the Senate committee on arrangements,
entered the executive mansion.
They were received by President
Harrison in the blue room. Five
minutes later the President and his
successor reappeared and entered an
open carriage and the march of the
procession to the capitol begun.
President Harrison wore an over
coat with fur collar and cuffs.
Clevcland's overcoat had plain velvet
collar.
Both, of course, wore silk hats.
They rode in President Harrison's
carriage, drawn by four bay horses.
William Willis, who has driven the
Presidents carriage for three wears,
handled the reins.
There was no abatement of the
storm, and the ride to the capitol was
through fast-falling snow, whirled
in frequent gusts of high wind.
Notwithstanding the inclemcncy of
the weather, MI. Cleveland's hat was
off frequently in response to the en-
thusiastic cheers of the "unterrified,"
who swarmed the sidewalks, unmind-
fnl of the discomfort.
The presidential party, with their
military escort, then came in sight of
the eastern entrance of the capitol
few minutes after - O'Clock.
TnE CHEERS OF THE MULTITUDE.
"A large crowd had assembled at east
front and checred loudly as Mr.. Cieve-
land approached,
He went IN by the basement entrance
in order to avoid the somewhat sil-
perry steps outside.
From the moment he descended froul
the carriage be was received withlnstv
cheers, and when he entered the Senate
wing the cheers from the outside gave
way to an ovation.

the senators afterwards subscribing
same at the clerks deak.
All these preliminaries having
been duly disposed of, the vice-presi-
dent directed the sergeant-at-arms to
proceed TO the execution of the order
of the senate relative to the inaugur-
alton of the president of the United
States.
MIR. CLEVELAND is PRESIDENT.
The procession to the east portico of
the capitol was then begun.
When the distinguished gathering
had taken the places assigned to them
at the east front of the Senate wing,
Mr.. Cleveland turned around to the
chief justice, who was attired in the
robes of his office, to take the oath
prescribed by the constitution. Chief
Justice Fuller and the other persons
near to the president removed their
hats and, with barred heads, listened
to the the taking of the oath of office,
which was pronounced by Chief jus
tice Fuller, in clear voice. Mr..
Cleveland asserting to it by bowling
his head and kissing the Bible.
The oath taken by the President is
what is known as the constitutional
oath, and reads as follows:
81 do solemnly swear that | will
faithfully execute the Office of Presi-
dent of the United States, and will, to
the best of my ability, preserve, pro-
tect and defend the constitution of
Nthe United States"
The Bible used in the ceremony was
given President Cleveland by his
mother 40 years ago. BY his special
request it was eight years ago put to
the same service for which it was
used today.

SYYTOAIS OF INSIDIOUS INFIRNITY.
While every American citizen must
contemplate with utmost pride the
growth and expansion of our country,
the sufiiciency of our institutions to
stand against the rudest shocks of vio-
lence, the wonderful thrift and enter
prise of our people, and the demon
strated superiority of tree government,
it behooves us to constantly watch for
every symptom of insidious infirmity
that threatens our national vigor, and
the strong man who in the confidenc &c
of sturdy health courts the sternest
activities of life, and reioices in the
hardihood of constant labor, may still
have lurking near his vitals the un.

The degree Of poverty existing in the
city Of London is not expressed by the
figures of the census of paupers, al.
though, admits the San Francisco Chron-
lcle, they are formidable enough. 1t is
appalling to think of 100000 publicly
registered paupers in one city, but if the
assertions OF missionaries and others who
are familiar with the subject are to be
credited, that number is scarcely 1.-THE
of the whole. A writer in an English
review, nearly two years ago, declared
that there were million persons in
London always hoverlng on the verge Of
starvation and another million whose
condition, while not so precarious, was
always menaced by the wolf of want.
Since these unchallenged assertions were
made, the depression Of business in Eng.
land has been greatly increased, so there
is good reason for believing that the
conditions are much worse now. What.
ever may be the cause of this extra.
ordinary state of affairs, it is no credit
to Nineteenth Century civilization, and
there is little wonder that the contem-
plation of it drives sympathetic men into
all sorts of vagaries of opinion.

It is reported that Indian Commission.
er Morgan has received letter signed by
Lewis Miller, and fifteen other Indians,
Cheyennes and Arapahoes, members of
Troop L, Fifth United States Cavalry,
asking him to take steps to procure their
discharge from the army. They say
that they are tired of military life, and
can do much better for themselves BY
working on their farms. The letter has
been referred to the, Secretary Of War
for such action as he may deem proper.
Military life is little tiresome, but white
men that enlist are not therefore dis
charged whenever they desire it; and to
discharge these Indians now would be to
destroy the, to them, most valuable part
of their military lesson.

lar disposition to expect from the ope
ration of the government especial and
direct individual advantages.
THE PROGENY OF PATERNALIsM.
The verdict of our voters, which
condemned the injuftice of maintain
| ing protection for protection's sake,
erjoins upon the peoples servants the
duty of exposing and destroying the
brood of kindred evils which are the
unwholesome progeny of paternalism.
| This is the bane of republican insti-
buttons and the constant peril of our
government by the people. 1t de-
grades to the purposes of the willy,
the plan of rule of our fathers-es-
tablished and bequeathed to us as an
object of our love and veneration.
1t perverts the patriotic sentiment OF
our countrymen, and tempts them to
the pitiful calculation of sordid gain
to be derived from their govern
ments maintenance. 1t undermines
the self-reliance of our people, and
substitutes in its place dependence
upon governmental favoritism and
stupefies every ennobling trait of
| American citizenship.
The lessons of paternalism ought to
be unlearned, but the better lesson
taught that while the people should
periodically and cheerfully support
their government, its functions do not
include the support of the people.
The acceptance of this principle
leads to refusal of the bounties and
subsidies which burden the labor
and thrift of portion of our citizens,
to aid ill-advised or languishing enter
prises in which they have no concern.
1t leads also to q challenge of wild
and RECKLESS pension expenditure,
witch overleaps the bounds of grateful
recognition of patriotic service and
prostitutes to vicious uses the peoples
prompt and generous impulse to aid
those disabled in their country's de-
Tense.
Every thoughtful American must
realize the importance of checking at
its beginning any tendency in public
and private station to regard frugality
and economy as virtues which we may
safely outgrow. The liberation of
this idea results in the waste of the
peoples money by their chosen sea-
wants, and the courageous prodigality
and extravaganza in the home life of
our countrymen. Under our scheme
of government, thei waste of public
money is crime against the citizens,
and the contempt of our people for
economy and frngality in their ersonal
affairs, deplora bl saps the strength and
sturdiness of our national char
acter. 1t is a plain dictate of honesty
and good government that public ex-
penditures shall be limited by public
necessity, and that this should
measured by the rules of stlic
