was to bo present on tho occasion. The day
was alto tho 'seventy-third birth duy of tho
venerable patron of the Compuny 'Dr. Thos.
Elliott, nn event which mado it doubly signi

and Ins already accumulated property
which is valuable and a benefit la the Town.

We publish the following account of the
incugurttl address of Governor Chamber
lain!
Vprn the conclusion of the work of the
house, the speaker announced the special
onler for 1 o'clock Immediately.

was announced, the front rows were
vacated, by the members of the louse to
receive that grave and important body; an?l
the chair, occupied by Mr. N. It. Myers,
I declared tbe joiut assembly eonveued. In
the mcui.vthilc the galleries of the house,
the space outside tho railing and all the
.standing room iiislde was being fast filled
with on eager and expectant crowd. There
were a largo number of ladies inside the
ir.il :.ml it I he'gallery above?a larger and
Moli.K i?:>;aiw;.\.i>i.i: ax acii:k\ck
than lias ever been assembled in tho hall ol
the house of representatives; Tho rumors
of the character of the governor's inaugural
his great reputation as tin crator, his
triumphant success in the campaign, the
expectation that had long attended the day,
and the important political interests that
hung suspended upon the direction which
the address of tho governor would give to
tcno of the republican administration, nil
conspired to lend gravity an 1 importanc i to
the occasion. The party ha I jus! gone
through tho ordeal of
As i m'arai.i.i:i.i:i> campaign;
the opposition had shown nu unexpected
frot.t, and all o\er the country the national
republican organization bent its ear to listen
to tho words'of the governor clout. A cloud
with a silver lining hung over the fortunes
of the people, and it v-as hoped that under
the bold nerve in.d vigorous genius of Mr.
Chamberlain, the cloud would bosoattercl,
and its silver lining break into the full sun
light of reform. Expectation was, there
fore, on tiptoe, nnd anticipation forward
po'ntcd the view, when the sefgcnnt-ut-arnia
of the senate announced tho presence of the
governor elect, and that he was ready to
qualify. The president of the somitepro

of the fact, nnd the whole bo ly arose to

State, the first time it has been us.d sinca
reconstruction, supported on the arm o! his
excellency F. J. Moses, jr., and followed by
thu members of the supreme court, by the
officers of the State and by the joint com
mittee of arrangements, the gweraor elect
advanced with a firm, steady step, with
nothing in his derportmcnt different from
his everyday style, unless it was a little
more seriousness in his look, and little more
determination in but manner. Mr. Chamber
lain, like most men of real worth, is habi
tually m assuming and self-posscsicd, and
when [ he laid his hand upon thu holy book,
while tho venerable chief jastiec.
