THE INAUGURATION.
General James A. Garfield Indicted
into the Presidency.
Imposing Ceremonial* Attending the Transi­
tion from the Log Cabin to the
White House.
The morning of March 4, 1881, dawned
~f 8ark nud cloudy at Washington, but long be­
fore the hour set for the llnal ceremonies at­
tending the inauguration of the President and
Vice-President, the sky became bright and
slcar, and at high noon the sun broke
through the heavy masses of clouds
that had threatened to mar the promised
•plendor of the attending festivities. At an
larly hour the streets leading in the direction
of the capitol began to be filled with a surg­
ing mass of people from all sections of the
country, eager to witness the imposing cere­
monies of the inauguration. Platforms were
trected at several points from which to view
the procession, and it is estimated that not
less than 100,000 people gathered along the
line of match to add to the grandeur of the
pageant.
THE L'ROCESSION.
Th« Various divisions marched along the
tvenue according to the programme, and at
11:30, the head of the procession, passing
iround the south wing, reached the eastern
front of the capitol. The Presidential car­
riage was driven to the lower entrance of the
Benate wing and the President-elect, accompa­
nied by the Vice President aud Senators Pen­
dleton and Thurman, entered the building and
proceeded to the Vice President's room, where
they remained till 12 o'clock. As early as 10
O'clock crowds began to assemble in front of
the platform erected over the steps leading
to the main entrance, and at 13 o'clock it was
istiinatcd 50,000 people were massed in front
of the building. Holders of cards of admis
lion to the capitol thronged the approaches to
the Senate long before the doors opened, and
within a few minutes after 11 o'clock the
Senate gul eries were filled to their utmost ca­
pacity. They presented a very gay apjearanee,
the much larger proportion of
their occupants being ladies, who
I
RACED THE OCCASION WITH HOLIDAY
ATTIRE.
"Mrs. Garfield, wife of the President-elect,
»nd his venerable mother, occupied front
•eats in the private gallery, next to the diplo­
matic gallery, and Mrs. Hayes sat between
them. The Misses Mollie Garfield and Fanuie
Hayes and a few personal friends were also of
the party. The floor of the Senate began to
811 up quite early with distinguished invited
euests, including a number of army oflicers of
Eigh rank.
The routine business of the Senate proceed
«d till about 11:30 A.M., when the diplomatic
torps appeared at the main entrance, and at
3nce attracted universal attention, as they
Hied down the center aisle in their gorgeous
court costumes, resplendent with gold and
lilver embroidery, and glittering with dec
rations. Sir Edward Thornton headed the
corps as its dean the French, Chilian and Ger­
man ministers followed. Then came the
Turkish minister with his red fez, and still
more conspicuously attired. The full Chinese
legation next appeared and afforded a
Iresh topic for the buzz of comment
in the galleries, alike by their grave demeanor
isnd their red-button mandarin hats and pca
rock feathers. A few minutes afterwards the
fuprcmc court of the United States was an­
nounced and the justices, headed by Chief
Justice Waite and clad in their robes of olliee,
filtered the chamber, and inarching slowly
down the center aisle took seats prepared for
•d them in front and facing the rostrum. Ex-
Justices Swayne and Strong also entered with
their former colleagues. Shortly before 12
o'clock

filtered the chamber arm in arm, escorted by
Senators Pendleton, Anthony and Bayaid,of
(lie committee of arrangements, and followed
by all members of the cabinet. As they pro
reeded down the aisle to seats re
Served for them the Senators and all other
occupants of the floor rose and remain stand­
ing till they had taken their seats. The gal­
leries applauded ly clapping hands and wav­
ing of handkerchiefs. The Vice President­
elect was next announced. He was escorted
by the sergeant at arms and Senator Pendleton
lo a seat on the right of Vice President Wheel­
er amidst renewed hearty applause, at the con.
elusion of which he delivered a brief address,
ilscwjterc reported, and was thereupon sworn
in. At this stage of the proceedings members
of the House of Representatives head­
ed by Speaker Randall entered and took seats
in a body behind the diplomatic corps, filling
up ail the space now remaining in any part of
the chamber. The hour of 13 M. having
arrived. Vice President Wheeler delivered his
valedictory, and the Forly-sixth Congress was
declaled opened and the ncwlv inducted Vice
President administered the oath of office to
the fcnators-elcet. This work of organiza­
tion being completed, it was announced that
the Senate, the supreme court and invited
guests, would proceed to the east portico of
the capitol to participate in the
CEREMONIES OF lNAI/Gl'KATlON
of the President-elect. A procession was
accordingly formed aiul all the late occupants
of the floor of the Senate proceeded through
the corridor aud rotunda to the place indicated
in the following order:
The marshal of United States supreme court
and marshal of the District of Columbia.
The supreme court.
The committee of arrangements and scargennt
nt-arms of the Senate.
The President and President-elect.
Gen. Arthur and Mr. Wheeler.
Members of the Senate.
Diplomatic corps.
Heads of departments.
Members of the House of Representatives and
members-elect.
Governors and cx-governora of States.
Oili cers of the Senate and oflicers of the
House.
As the procession tiled out through the
main corridor to the rotunda the crowds
[louring down from the galleries soon caused
a blockade, and finally breaking in upon the
procession, merged with it, and passed
on to the rotunda, a dense
confused mass of Senators, Representatives,
diplomats and citizens, without much regard
to" precedence.
On reaching the main entrance leading from
the rotunda to the platform the pressure wae
relieved, and the Presidential party was ena­
bled to reach the front. Mrs. Garfield, Mrs.
Hayes, Gen. Garfield's mother and other ladies
of the party, were caught in the crowd and
r-xperionced considerable difficulty in reaching
the platform. At half past 12 the President
cached his place at the front of the platform
and took his seat, with Chief Justice Waito
upon his right, and ex-President Hayes upon
the left, with Senators Pendleton, 'Anthony
and Bayard, while immediately behind sat his
mother, Mrs. Garfield and Mrs.
II lives and Viee President Arthur.
INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
At 12:35 Senator Pendleton arose and intro­
duced General Garfield, who delivered his in­
augural address:

CITIZENS:

V1
We stand to-day upon
on eminence which overlooks a hundred years
of national life—a century crowded with perils
crowned with the triumph of liberty and
tzs love. Before continuing the onward march
let us pause a moment at this height—for a
moment to strengthen our faith and renew
our hope by a glance at the pathway along
which our people have travelad. It is now
three days more than a hundred years since the
adoption of the first Uten constitution of
the United States, the articles of confederation
and jicrpctual union.
THE NEW nr.PI BI.IC
was then beset with danger on every hand It
had not conquered a place in the family of
nations. The decisive battle of the war foT
independence, whose centennial anniversary
will soon be gratefully celebrated at York
town, had not yet been fought. The colonists
were struggling not only against the armies
of Great Britain but against the settled opin­
ions of mankind, for the world did not believe
that the supreme authority of government
^vootd lie safely entrusted to the guardianship
,*of the people themselves. Wc cannot over­
estimate the fervent jove of liberty, the intel­
ligent courage and saving common sense with
which our fathers marie the great experiment
of S' lf-govcrnment. When they found after a
ebort time that a confederacy of the States was
-V
WJ9C
too weak to meet the necessities of the vigor­
ous and expanding republic, they boldly set it
aside and in its steai established
TJIE NATIONAL UNION,
founded directly upon all the people, endowed
with full powers of self-preservation and
with ample authority for the accomplishment
of Its great object. Under this constitution
the boundaries of freedom have been enlarged,
the foundations of order and peace been
strengthened, and growth in all the better
elements of national life has vindicated the
wisdom of the founders, and given new hope
to their descendants. Under this constitution
our people long ago made themselves safe
against danger from without, and secured for
their mariners and flag equality of rights on
all the seas. Under this constitution twenty
live States have been added to the
union, with constitutions and laws formed
aud enforced by their own citizens to secure
the manifold blessings of local self-govern­
ment. The jurisdiction of this constitution
now covers an area fifty times greater than
tint of the original thirteen States and a pop­
ulation twenty times greater than that of 1780.
The supreme trial of the constitution came at
last under the tremendous pressure of civil
war. We ourselves are witnesses that the
Union emerged from the blood and fire of that
conflict purified and made stronger for all the
beneficent purposes of good government.
And now at the close of this,
TIIE FIRST CENTURY
of growth, with the inspirations of its history
their hearts, our people have lately reviewed
the condition of the nation, passed judgment
upon the conduct and opinions of political
parties, and have registered tlieir will concern­
ing the future administration of the govern­
ment, and to interpret and execute that will in
accordance with the constitution, is the para­
mount duty of the executive.
FRUITS OF THE WAR.
Even from this point of view it is manifest
that the nation is resolutely facing to the
front, resolved t« occupy its vast energies in
developing the great possibilities of the fu­
ture. Sacredly preserving whatever lnisbfcn
gained to liberty and good government during
the century, our people are determin­
ed to leave behind all those bit­
ter controversies concerning tilings
which have been irrevocably settled and
further discussion of which can only stir up
strife and delay the onward march. The su­
premacy of the nation and its laws should be
no longer a subject of debate That discus­
sion which for half a century threatened the
existence of the Union was closed at the last
court of war by a decree from which there is
no appeal. The constitution and laws made in
pursuance thereof shall continue to be the su­
preme law of the land, binding alike upon
States and the people. This decree docs not
disturb any of the States nor interfere with
any of their necessary rules of local self gov­
ernment, but it does fix and establish the per­
manent supremacy of the Union. The will of
the nation, speaking with the voice of battle
and through the amended constitution, has
fulfilled the great promise of 1777 by pro­
claiming liberty throughout the land to all
inhabitants therein.
THE NEGRO RACE.
The elevation of the negro race, from slav­
ery to full rights of citizenship, is the
most important political change we have
known since the adoption of the constitution
of 1787. No thoughtful man can fail to ap­
preciate its beneficent effect on our people.
It lias freed us from perpetual danger of war
and dissolution. It has added immensely to
the moral a.id industrial force of our people.
It has liberated the master as well as the slave
from a relation which wronged and enfeebled
both. It has surrendered to
their own guardianship the manhood
of more thau five million people, and
has opened to each one of them a career of
freedom and usefulness. It has given new in­
spiration to the power of self help in both
races, by making labor more honorable to one
and more necessary to the other. The influeuce
of this force will grow greater and bear richer
fruit with coming years. No doubt the great
changs lias caused serious disturbance to our
southern community. This is to be deplored,
though it was unavoidable, but those who re­
sisted the change should remember that under
our institutions there was no middle ground for
the negro race between slavery
and equalizat ion.
There could be no permanent disfranchised
peasantry in the United States. Freedom cau
never yield its fullness of blessings as long as
law or its administration places the smallest
obstacle in the way of any virtuous citizen.
The emancipated race has already made re­
markable progress. With unquestioned devo­
tion to the Union, with a patience and gentle­
ness not born of fear, they have followed the
light as God gave them to see the light. They
are rapidly laying material foundations of self
support,widening the circle of intclligcuce and
beginning to enjoy blessings that gather
arouud homes of the industrious poor and
they deserve generous encouragement of all
good meu. So fur us my authority can law
fully extend they shall enfoy the full and equal
protection of the constitution and laws.
TUB IIAl.l.OT.
The free enjoyment of equal suffrage is still
in question, and the frank statement of the
issue may aid its solution. It is alleged that
in many communities negro citizens arc prac­
tically denied the freedom of the ballot. In­
sofar as the truth of this allegation is admit­
ted, it is answered that in many places honest
local government is impossible if a mass of
uneducated negroes are allowed to vote. These
are grave allegations. So far as the latter is
true, it is the only palliation that can be otTer
ed for opposing the freedom of the ballot.
Bad local government is certainly a great evil
which ought to be prevented,'but to vio­
late the freedom and sanctity of suffrage
is more than an evil. It is a crime which if
protested in/vill destroy the government itself.
Suicide is not a remedy. iFin other lands it
l:e high treason to compass the death of a
king, it should be counted no less a crime here
to strangle our sovereign power and stifle its
voice. It has been said that unsettled ques­
tions have no pity for repose of nations. It
should be said with the utmost emphasis that
this question of suffrage will never give re­
pose or safety to States or the nation, until
each within its own jurisdiction makes and
keeps the ballot free and pure by the strong
sanction of law.
But while the danger which arises from ig­
norance in the voter cannot be denied, it covers
a field wider than that of negro suffrage and
the present condition of that race. It is a
danger that lurks and hides in sources a'nd
fountains of power in every State. We have
no standard by which to measure tho disaster
that may be brought upon us by ignorance
and vice in citizens when joined to corruption
and fraud in suffrage. The voters of the
Union who make and unmake constitutions,
and upon whose will hangs the destiny of our
government, can transmit their supreme au­
thority to no successor save the coming
generation of voters who arc sole heirs of the
sovereign power. If that question comes to
its inheritance blinded by ignorance and cor­
rupted by vice, the fall of the republic will be
certain and without remedy. The census has
already sounded the alarm in the appalling
figures which mark how dangerously high the
tide of illiteracy has arisen among our voters
and their children. To the South the question
is of supreme importance, but the responsi­
bility for the existence of slavery did not rest
upon the South alone. The nation itself is
responsible for the extension of suffrage
and is under special obligation
to aid in removing the illiteracy which it lias
added to the voting population for North and
South alike. But there is one remedy. All
constitutional power of the nation "and of
States, and ail volunteer forces of the people
siiouM be summoned to meet this danger, by
imvinir the influence of universal education.
It is a high privilege and sacred duty of those
now living to educate their successors, and
tit them by intelligence and virtue for the in­
heritance which awaits them. In this work
sects and races should lie forgotten, and
partisanship should be unknown. I-ct our
people find a new meaning in the divine oracle
which declares that a little child shall lead
them, for our little children will soon control
the destinies of the republic.
AN IDEA!. FUTURE.
My countrymen, we do not now differ in
our judgment concerning the controversies of
past generations, and fifty years licuce our
children will not be divided in their opinions
concerning our present controversies. They
will surely bless their fathers and God, that
the Union was preserved, that slavery was
overthrown, and that both races were made
equal before the law. We may hasten or we
may retard, but we can't prevent the final re­
conciliation. It is not possible for us now to
make a truce with time by anticipating and
oecepting its inevitable verdict, tnterpriscs
of the highest importance to our moral and
material well-being invite us and offer ample
scope for the employment of our lest powers.
I.it all our people, leaving behind them the
lut tie fields of dead issue, look forward, and
RSR^
in strength and liberty and a restored Union
win grander victories of peace.
PROSPERITY OF THE COUNTRY.
The prosperity which now prevails is with­
out parallel in our history. Fruitful seasons
have done much to secure it, but tliey have not
done all. The preservation of the public credit
and resumption of specie payment so success­
fully attained by the administration of iny pre­
decessor, lias enabled our people to secure
the blessings whieli the seasons brought.
GOLD AND SILVER.
By the experience of nations in all ages, it
lias been found that gold and silver afTord the
only safe foundation for a monetary system.
Confusion has recently been created by varia­
tions in the relative value of the two metals,
but I confidently believe that arrangements
can be made between leading commercial
nations which will secure the general use of
both metais. Congress should provide that
compulsory coinage of sliver, now required
by law, may not be used to disturb our mon­
etary system by driving either
metal out of circulation. If
possible such an adjustment
should be made that the purchasing power of
every coined dollar will be exactly equal to its
debt-paving power in all markets of the world.
The chief duty of the national government in
connection with the currency of the country,
is to coin and ueelarc its value. Grave doubts
have been entertained whether Congress is au­
thorized by the constitution to make any form
of paper money a legal tender. The present
issue of United States notes has been sustaiucd
by the necessities of the war, but such paper
should depend for its value and currency
upon its convenience in use and its
prompt redemption in coin at the will of the
holder, and not upon its compulsory circula­
tion. These notes are not money, but prom­
ises to pay money. If Holders demand it the
promise should be kept. The
REFUNDING OF THE NATIONAL DEBT
at a lower rate of interest should be accom­
plished without compelling the withdrawal ol
national bank notes and thus disturbing the
business of the country. I venture to refer to
the position I have occupied on financial ques­
tions during my long service in Congress, and
to say that time and experience have strength­
ened the opinions I have so often
expressed on these. The finances of the gov­
ernment shall suffer no detriment which it
may be possible for my administration to
prevent.
AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.
The interests of agriculture deserve more
attention from the government than they have
yet received. The farms of the United States
afford homes and employment for more than
one-half the people, and furnish much the
largest part of our exports. As the govern­
ment lights our coast for the protection of
mariners and the benefit of commerce, so
should it give to the tillers of the soil the
lights
of practical science and experience.
OUR MANTFACTURIES
are rapidly making us independent are open­
ing to capital and labor new and profitable
fields of employment. This steady and
healthy growth sli«uld lie still maintained.
UARllOR AND RIVER IMPROVEMENTS.
Our facilities for transportation should be
promoted by the continued improvement of
our harbors and great interior waterways, and
by the increase of our tonnage on the ocean.
The development of the world's commerce
lias
:ed
to the urgent demand for shortening
the long sea voyage around Cape Horn by
constructing
SHIP CANALS ACROSS TIIE ISTHMUS,
which unites the two continents. Various
plans to this end have been suggested, and
will need consideration, but none of them
have been sufficiently matured to warrant us
in extending pecuniary aid. This subject will
immediately engage the attention of the gov­
ernment, with a view to thorough protection
to American interests. We will urge
i.a narrow policy or seek peculiar or
exclusive privileges in any commercial route,
but, in the language of my predecessors, I be­
lieve it is the right and duty of the United
States to assert aud maintain such supervision
and authority over any interoceanic canal
across the isthmus that connects North and
South America us will protect our national
interests.
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
The constitution guarantees absolute religi­
ous freedom. Congress is prohibited from
making any law respecting the establishment
of religion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof. The Territories of the United States
are subject to the direct legislative authority
of Congress, and hence the general govern­
ment is responsible for any violation of the
constitution in any of them. It is therefore
a reproach to the government that in
the most populous of Territories
the constitutional quarantee is not enjoyed by
the people, and the authority of Congress is
set at naught.
THE MORMON CHURCH
not only offends the moral sense of mankind
by sanctioning polygomy, but prevents the
administration of justice through the ordin­
ary instrumentalities of law. In my judg­
ment it is the duty of Congress, while re­
specting to the utmost the conscientious con­
victions and religious scruples of every citi­
zen, to prohibit within its jurisdiction all
criminal practices, especially of that class
which destroy family relations and endanger
social order. Nor can any ecclesiastical or­
ganization be safely permitted to usurp in the
smallest degree the functions and powers of
the national government.
THE CIVIL SERVICE
can never be placed on a satisfactory basis un­
til itjis regulated by law for the good of the
6crviec itself, for the protection of those who
arc intrusted with the appointing power against
waste of time and the obstruction to public
business caused by inordinate pressure for
place and for protection of incumbents against
intrigue and wrong. I shall at a proper time
ask Congress to fix the tenure of the execu­
tive departments and prescribe the grounds up­
on which removals shall be made during the
terms for which incumbents have lieen ap­
pointed.
Finally, acting always within the authority
ma limitations of the oonsiitution, invading
neither the rights of States nor the reserved
rights of the people.
POLICY OF THE ADMINISTRATION.
It will be the purpose of my administration
to maintaiu authority, and in all placcs within
its jurisdiction to force obedience to all laws
of the union, in the interests of the people,
to demand rigid economy in all expenditures
of the government, and to require the honest
and faithful service of all executive officers,
•remembering that officers were created, not
for the benefit of the incumbents or their sup­
porters, but for service of the government.
INVOCATION.
And now, fellow citizens, I am about to as­
sume the great trust which you have com­
mitted to my hands. I appeal to
you for that earnest and thought
fill support which makes this
government in fact, as it is in law, a govern­
ment of the people. 1 shall greatly rely upon
the wisdom and patriotism of Congress and of
those who may share with me the responsibil­
ities aud duties of the administration, and
above all upon our efforts to promote the wel­
fare of this great people aud their government.
I revelcntly invoke the support and blessings
of Almighty God.

WE do not often speak of any proprietary
medicine, but from what we have seen and
heard of Allen's Lung Balsam, the great fam­
ily remedy for all diseases of the throat, lungs
and pulmonary organs, we shall take the lib­
erty to say to those who are 60 unfortunate
as to be afllicted with any of these diseases, to
mnkc a trial of its virtue at once. It has been
before the public for many years aud has cured
legions of men, women and children, us thou­
sands of veritable testimonials have testified.
It is a strictly pure medicene, |ierfectly harm*
less to the most delicate constitutions. Many
of the most successful physicians throughout
the States recommend this "Balsam" as the
best consumption cure that can be prescribed.
Some mothers think there is nothing to equal
it for the cure of croup. In conclusion we
would say that were we afflicted in that way
we should certainly take it. It is just what
the public want, a Remedy which they could
rely upon.

bed and could not move without assistance. It seemed death to her when shewas
moved. I had the most skillful physicians in this section attending her, without bene-**^
filling her in the least. My son, while visiting Lafayette, saw one of yonr advertiiimffef
wagons, and coming home induced ns to try the \Vizanl CHL We did so, and, remark
