His Inauguration at liVashing-
ton To -day.
A VERY SENSIBLE MESSAGE.
Wasmezerox, March 4-2 p. m. -Presi-
dent Gatti eld deliyered his inaugural
address this afternoon. In it he says :
"The supremacy of the nation and its
laws should be no longer the subject of
debate. That discussion, which for half a
century threatened the existence of' the
union, was closed at lest in the high court
of war by a decree from which there is
no appeal. The elevation of the negro
race from slavery to the 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 appreciate its beneficent
effect upon our institutions and people. It
has freed us from perpetual danger of war
and dissolution. :No doubt thegreat change
has caused serious disturbance to our
Southern connnunity. This is to be
• deplored, though it was unavoidable. There
was no middle ground for the negro race
• between slavery :and equal citizenship.
There can be no permanent disfranchised
peasantry in . the United States. • The
emancipated race deserve the generous
- encouragement of all good men. •

master -General, James; Interior, Hunt;
Attorney -General, MacVeagh.
_So far as my authority can lawfully
extend they shall enjoy the full and -equal:
protection of the constitution and laws. It
should be -said with the, utmost emphasis
• that the question ofesuffrage will never give
repose or safety to the states or to the
nation until each within its own
• jurisdiction Makes and keeps tlie ballot free'
• and pure by the strong sanctions of la,we
but the danger which arises from ignorance
in the eater cannot be denied._ For the
• north and seutli alike there is but one
reMedy. All- the constittitional power of
the nation -andel elates - and all the Nolen-
- teer forcee Of the people. Amnia -;be sein•e
