Heaven is not rcachedby a single bound; Butwe build the ladder by which we rise From the l0wly earth to the vaulted skies, And we mount to its summit round by round. I count this thing to be graudly true: That a noble deed is a step toward God, Lifting the soul from the common sod To a purer air and broader view. We rise by things that are under feet; By what we havc‘mastered of good and gain ; By the pride deposed and passion slain, And the vanquished ills that We hourly meet. We hope, we resolvc,we aspire, we trust, When the morning calls us to life and light, But our hearts grow weary, and ere the night Our lives are trailing in the sordid dust. We hope, we resolve, we aspire, we pray, And we think that we mount the air on wings, Beyond the recoil of sensual things, _ While our feet still cling to the heavy clay. Wings for angels, but feel for the men! We may borrow the wings to find the way, We may hope, and resolve, and aspire, and pray; . But our feet must rise, or we fall again. Only in dreamsis-a ladder thrown l»... The President’s Inaugural Address. . Fellow citizens—Under Providence I have been called a second time to act as Execu- tive over this great nation. It has been my endeavor in the past to maintain all the laws, and so far as lay in my power to act for the best interests of the whole people. My best efi’orts will be given in the same direction in the future, aided, I trust by my four years‘ experience in the office. When my first term of office of chief executive began the country had not recovered from the effects of a great internal _revolution, and three of the former States of the Union had not been restored to their federal rela- tions. It seemed to me wise that no new questions should be raised so long as that condition of affairs existed. Therefore the past four years, as far asI could control events, have beau consumed in the effort to restore harmony, public cydit, commerce, and all the arts of peace and progress. It is my firm conviction that the civilized world is tending towards republicanism or government by the people. through their chosen representatives, and that our own great republic is destined to be the guiding star to all others. Under our republic we pean power of any standing, anda navy less than that of either of at least five of them. There could be no extension of terri- tory on this continent which would call for an increase of this force, but' rather might such entension enable us to demiuish it. The theory of government changes with general progress. Now that the teleprapb is made available for communicating thought, together with. rapid transit by steam, all parts of the continent aremade contiguous for purposes of government,and communication between the extreme limits of the country made easier than it was From the weary earth to the. sapphire walls; ' ‘But the dreams depart, and the vision falls, And the sleeper awaken on his'pillow of stone. Heaven is not reached at a singe bound; But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies, And we mount to its summit round by round. '————.’4.o—.————— A SONG. BY WILLIAM NORRIS. “ Dawn talks to-day Over dew gleaming flowers, Night flies away Till the resting of hours; Fresh are thy feet And with dreams thine. eyes glistening, Thy still lips are sweet, ' Though the world is a listening. 0 Love, set a word in my mouth for our meeting, ' Cast thy arms round about me to stay my heart’s heating! 0 fresh day l 0 fair day! 0 long day made oursl “ Morn shall meet noon While the flower-stems yet move, Though the wind dieth soon And the clouds fade above, Loved ‘lips are thine As I tremble and hearken: Bright thine eyes shine, Though the leaves thy brow'darken, 0 love, kiss me into silence, lest no word avail me, Stay my head with thy bosom lest breath and life fail me! - 0 sweet day, 0 rich day, made long for our love. “ Late day shall greet eve, And the fall blossoms shake, For the winds will not leave The tall trees while they wake. Eyes 8011 with bliss Come nigher and nigher, Sweet mouth that I kiss Tell me all thy desire. Let us speak, love, together some words of our story, That our lips as they part may remember the glory! ‘ 0 soft day, 0 calm day, made dear for my sake." EDITORIAL LETTER. WasumoroN, March 2, 1873. Dean Guerra—The past week has been one of intense interest. Congress has made history, if not a record, for the admiration of the outside world. Those who have kept 'the run of legislation, as detailed in the daily papers, are fully apprized ofall the “sayings . and doings” of Congress on Mobilier and other exciting topics. The cool, reflective judgment here seems to be, now that the question has been acted upon in the House, that the Poland Committee were unnecessa- rily harsh upon Onkes Ames and Mr. Brooks, and that a juster finding would have been avote of censure upon all who were implicated in the stock-jobbing nego- tiations. The see-saw of oratory in the House, was terrific. J 0c Hawley, of- our State, had his " little say, and was for a thorough purification. Mr. Kellogg desired to make a ten minuteS’ speech, but couldn’t get the, speaker’s eye, and so his speech sleeps the sleep that knows no waking. The lawyer effort of Ben Butler was in- spiring and entertaining to the last degree. It was probably the greatest effort of his life. His cute analysis and scathing dissection of the committee's report, was unanswcrable. There was a terrible force of concrete truth, when he told Congress it could tolerate the presence of three murderers—(Sicklcs, who killed Keys; the California member, who shot down the waiter at Willard's, and Bowen, who shot his Colonel in the army,) of a blackleg prize-fighter and gambler, (John M'orr'lssey), a bigamist, (Bowen, who married his second wife here, the other liv- ing at home), a rebel, who was pal-mops crzmt‘m’r in stealing all the State money of Tennessee and carrying it into the Southern Confederacy, (a present member from Ten- uessec)—“but you can’t stand the presence of an old man your committee certiflerto being a truthful man!" “Congress can bear any crime but that 1” “Truth telling is what it cannot and will not tolerate 1”. When these thrusts were pealed forth by Butler in his most impassioned manner, it was utterly impossible to maintain order either on the floor or in the galleries. The whole capitol building was densely jammed, and every approach to the House packed to sufi'ocation. The opening day of the debate was signalized by the admission of hundreds of ladies upon the floor in the rear of mem- bers‘ seats. This indulgence 'had to be re- stricted as the debate advanced, yet it was a grand audience (H spectators who graced the galleries, and honored Gen. Butler with their closest attention. ' The report of the Senate Committee is also freely criticised as' being too severe upon Mr. Patterson, and by implication upon Mr. Wilson and Colfax. There isn’t a man in either House of Congress who doubts the honest integrity of motive of any one of these three inculpated men. ' Had the committee ‘ recited the facts and received severe censure, it would more nearly accord with the gen- eral feeling here. Mr. Pomeroy has finished with his un- happy investigation. His friends all claim- ing a complete vindication, and his enemies all the more resolutely vocifcrating “,00 thin.” Senator Clayton’s Committee exhonorate him from the charges offraud,wbile the'Cald- well report will not probably be acted upon at this session. The Senate. sat through all last night, and took'a recess at half-past eight this Sunday morning to 7 this evening, and is now pctive- ]y at work at the hour of inditing this epist-lv. . .

The effects of the late civil strife have been to free the slave and make him a citi- zen. Yet he is not possessed of the civil rights which citizenship should carry with it. This is wrong, and should be corrected. To this correction I stand co'mmitted, so far as executive influence can avail. Social equality is not a subject to be legislated on, nor shall I ask that anything he done to ad- vance the social status of the colored man, except to give him a frir chance to develop what there is good in him. Give him access to schools, and when he travels let him feel assured that his conduct will regulate the treatment and fare he will receive. The States lately at war with the generah gov- ernment are now happily rehabilitated, and no executive control is exercised in any one of them that would not be cxeréised in any other State under like circumstances. In the first year of the past administration the proposition came up for the admission of Santo Domingo as a territory of the Union. It was not a question of my seeking, but was a proposition from the people of Santo Domingo, and which I entertained. I be- lieve now, as I did.then, that it was for the best interests of the country for the people of Santo Domingo, and all concerned, that the proposition should be received favora- bly. It was, however, rejected, constitution- ally, and therefore the subject was never brought up again by me. In future, while I hold my present office, the subject of the acquisition of territory must have the support of the people before I will recommend any proposition looking to such acquisition. I say here, however, that I do not share in the apprehension held by many as to the danger of governments becoming weakened and destroyed by rea- son of their extension of territory. Com- merce, education, and rapid transit of thought and matter by telegraph and steam have changed all this. Rather do I believe that our Great -lIIaker is preparing the world in his own good time to become one nation, speaking one language, and when armies and navies will be no longer requir- ed. My efforts in the future will be direct- ed to the restoration of good feeling be- tween the different sections of our common country ; to the restoration of our currency to a fixed value as compared with the world’s standard, of values; gold, and if possible to a par with it. To the construe tion of cheap routes of transit throughout the land to the end that the products of all sections may find a market and leave a liv- ing remuneration to the producer ; to the. maintenance of friendly relations with all our neighbors and with the distant nations; to the re-establishment of our commerce and share in the carrying trade upon the ocean; to the encouragement of such manufactur- ing industries as can be economically pur- sued in this country, to the end that the ex- ports of home products and industries may pay for our imports, the only sure method Cf returning to and permanently maintain- ing'a specie basis ; to thc.elevation of labor,- rind by a humane course to bring the abori- gines of the country under‘the benign influo ence of education and civilization. It is either this or a war of extermination ; wars of extermination engaged in by people pur- suing commerce and all industrial pursuits are expensive even against the weakest peo- ple, and are demoralizing and wicked. Our superiority of strength and advantage of civilization should make us lenient towards the Indians. The wrong already inflicted upon them should be taken into account and the balance placed to their credit. ‘ The moral views of the question should be con- sidercd and the question asked “Cannot the Indian be made a useful ahd productive member of. society by proper teaching and treatment.” If the effort is made in good faith we will stand before the civilized na- tions of the earth, and in our consciences, for having made it. All these things are not to be accomplished by one individual, but they will receive my support and such recommendation to congress as will in my judgment best serve to carry them into effect. I beg your support and encourage- ment. 'It has been and is my earnest desire to correct abuses that have grown up in the civil service of the country. To secure this reformation, rules regulating methods of ap- pointment and promotion, were established and have been tried. My effort for such re- formation shall bc continued to the best of my judgment. The spirit of the' rules adopted will be maintained. I acknowledge before this assemblage, representing as it does, every section of our country, the obli- gation that I am under to my countrymen for the great honor they~have conferred on me by returning me to the highest office within their gift, and the further obligatiOn resting on me to render them the best servi- ces within my power. This I promise, looking forward with the greatest anxiety to the day when I shall be released from re- sponsibilities that at times are almost over- whelming, and from which I have scarcely had a respite since the eventful firing upon Fort Sumter in April, 1861, to the present day. My services were then tendered and accepted under the first call for troops grow- ing out of that event. I did not ask for a place or position, and was entirely without influence or the acquaintance of persons of influence, but was resolved to perform my part in a struggle threatening the very existence of the nation. I performed a con- scious duty without asking promotion or command, and without revengeful feelings towards any section or any individual. Notwithstanding this, throughout the war and from my candidacy for my present office in 1868 to the close of the last Presi- dential campaign I have been the subject of abuse and slander scarcely ever equaled in political history, which to-day I feel I can disregard in view of your verdict, which I greatl‘ully accept as my vindication. ———.—-<.>-.————~— A friend, visiting in a minister's family, where the parents were vcrv strict in regard to the children’s Sabbath department, was confidentially informed by onezof the little girls that ::she would like to be a minister), "Why? inquired the visitor, rather puz- zled to understand what had given the child so sudden an admiration for that calling.

Swen—The history of the opinions of physiologists in regard to the cause of sleep, ' presents an instructive example of the folly of theorizing on such a subject in the ab- sence of any adequate basis of facts estab- ' lishcd by observation. From the good old times, when the ascention ot' vapors from the stomach, their congelation by the cold- ness of the brain, and the consequent plug- ging of the vessels of the head, was deemed quite a lucid and satisfactory account or the - matter, down to a comparatively recent pe- riod, there have been innumerable opinions in regard to the cause of sleep. The latest writer on the subject, when setting up his own theory, demolished without difficulty those Of his predecessors. At last the bal- ance of scientific opinion, after many uncer- tain oscillations. settled pretty steadily down to the conviction that the proximate cause of sleep is a state of fullness or disten- .sion of the blood vessels of the brain, Slum- ber is brought about, it was believed by pressure of the distended vessels on the brain tissue. Though some men of 'high standing could not repress their doubts that natural sleep is not caused in this way by a ' tight sanguineous night-cap, this opinion was generally held, and the doubters could not give any better solution of the problem, but were rather inclined to treat it as in-‘ soluble. One thing was certain, that a con-. . ditiou in some respects resembling sleep could be artificially produced by pressure on the brain. This condition, though often identified with sleep, was really its counter- '_ felt, coma or stupor, a state distinguishable from true slumber by the great difficulty of arousing .the unfortunate subjects of it. This theory, after it had long held sway, was at length proved to be at variance with some- established physiological principles, and with observations made on the brain in cases where thal organ had been exposed, by fracture of its bony covering. It was shown, besides, that a state in every way re» sembliug natural sleep could be induced by diminishing, instead of increasing the sup- ply of blood to. the brain. In 1855, it occurred to Dr. Fleming, then a professor in Cork, to try the efie ct of com- pressing at the upper part of the neck the carotid arteries, two of the vessels whiph convey the vital fluid to the brain. He re- quested a friend to make the experiment 0." himself. The result was the production of a state of complete unconsciousness,_ in which, however, the subject of the some. what hazardous experiment dreamed with great activity,afew seconds appearing as hours, from the number and rapid succes. sion of the thoughts passing through his mind. Tue effects passed off on the re- moval of the pressure from the vessels. This was clearly a very different condition from that of stupor, and one not distinguish- able from ordinary sleep. Dr. Fleming was cautious in drawing conclusions, but he threw out the suggestion that possibly, after all, ordinary sleep might be connected with an opposite cerebral condition to that commonly assigned as its cauge. In a few years this was placed beyond all doubt. Mr. Durham, a London surgeon, and almost simultaneously, Dr. Hammond of New York, showed, by a series of experiments on the lower animals, the results of which were first published in 1860, that during sleep the brain is in a comparatively blood- less condition. The experimenters observ- ed the brain becoming pale, and sinking down as sleep came on; and. as that condiv tion passed off, they saw its surface rising up and becoming suffused with the red blush of the returning circulation. At the period of complete awakening the vessels became more full and distended, and a large number sprang into sight which ,had been invisible during slumber.
