Inauguration of State Officers
Brief Rem auks by (jov Caldwkli.
--Yesterday, at 12 m., pursuant to
the requirements ol i law, the recently
elected State Officers, with two excep

office. The ceremony took place inthe
Half of the House ot Representatives
Just before the oath of office was
administered" to the Governor elect,
Hon. Tod R. Caldwell, he made.the folr
lowing brief Inaugural Address :
May it please Tour Honor and fellow
citizens rf the State of North Carolina:
In obedience to the will of the , people
ol North Carolina, I appear before you
to-day to assume the office of Chief
Magistrate of the State of North Caro
lina for the next four years. It has been
customary, fellow citizens, and almost
universally so, that the Governor of the
State of. North Carolina should be in
augurated before the "General Assembly
ot North Carolina. On this occasion,
however, there is a departure from the
general rule, lor the reason that the Gen
eral Assembly is not in session, and the
Constitution provides that in that event
I shall take my oath before one of the
Justices of the Supreme Court,
.j Gentlemen, I accept this honor, chief
ly upon the solicitation of lriends, and
am sorry that I did not prepare myself
with a little speech for them on this
occasion, i .
In assuming this high and responsible
office, believe me, I will ever make it a
point of duty to take care of the interest
of the: people of North Carolina.. I do
not mean to act the part of the partisan
in this office. Of course, where I have
patronage to bestow, other things being
equal, I shall give such patronage to
party friends judiciously and in a man
ner consistent with the privileges of my
office! I shall endeavor to discharge
my duties to the best of my ability.
When I cannot fill the office from my
own party, acceptably to myself, I shall
then consider it my duty to select a
d man f nom the opposite party,
I know that every ' good
and true, Republican in the State
ot JNortu Carolina will approve
my r determination in this respect.
I hope, however, that I will be able to
find in our own party intelligent, well
educated and .honest men enough to fill
these offices. I desire in conclusion, to
tender to you, and through you, to the
people of North Carolina, niy most sin
cere thanks for the generous manner in
which you bestowed your suffrages upon
me for the highest office within the gift
of the people, and to give the assurrance
that in the discharge of my duties, I
shall have an eye single to the interests
of my beloved btatc and to all her citi
zees without regard to party, and while
i claim no immunity Irom just criticism,
I bespeak in advance a fair hearing and
honest judgment from the public I am
The Anntversaky Celebration.
In accordance with the, published pro
gramme, the freedmcn of the City met
at Metropolitan Uall yesterday at 10
. . - 1
o'clock, ana commenced exercises oi xne
Anniversary celebration of the emanci
pation proclamation ol president Lin
coln.
The exercises were opened with an
arjnroDriate song by the choir, the
daughter of Geo. W. Brodie, the cashier
of the Freedmen's bavings Bank, oper
ating at the organ. JLSoth the instrumen
tal and vocal music was capitally rendered.
W. Rufus Davis read the emancipation
proclamation. The Orator, Chas N.
Otey, was then introduced by the Presi
dent of the day, Caas. N. Hunter.
Before the , commencement or the
oration quite a uumBer of white gen
tlemen, ot both politica. parties, entered
the hall, who listened attentively to the
long address.
Otey is one of the best colored orators
we ever listened to ; the speech was an
able and well written document, abound
ing in good advice to his race advicej
which, if followed, would greatly tend
tend to the cultivation oi kindly
relations between the races. We
regret that we have not sufficient space
to give this excellent effort a more ex
tended notice. We really think that
the colored people of the city should
have it published for general circula
tion. .
At the conclusion of Otey's speech,
the town clock sounded two, when we
were strikingly reminded of our New
Years turkey, and left the hall.

Rev. B. York, D. D.
At the close of the winter fcession of
Ruffin Badger Institute, in Chatham, a
pleasing little occurrence- took place.
The, Rev. Dr. York, for five years, had
presided over the Institution with great
success, and resigned his charge to as
sume his duties in Rutherford. College,
where he was elected Professor of Logic
and Rhetoric. This veteran educator,
though having completed his 70th year,
is still as hale and vigorous as ever.
Late in the evening J. H. Boothe,
Esq., Principal of Yates Academy, and
a former student of Ruffin Badger, in a
neat and eloquent address, presented
the venerable Dr. with a magnificent
gold medal in behalf of the Trustees
and students, as a mark of their high
esteem and respect.
The medal is the work of Canfield
Brothers &Co., Baltimore, and bears on
the obverse the inscription UB. York,

The Louisiana -Muddle.
New ' York, ;Jan. 1. The World
says that several of the Sub -Committee
ol the Lonisinna delegation are still in
this City, aud are daily receiving as
surances that the people of the North
are beginning thoroughly to understand
their cause and'the situation of affairs
in Louisiana. They pronounce several
telegrams from New Orleans, by way of
Washington, which assert that the peo
p't; of New Orleans and Louisiana have
quietly acquiesced in the situation
untrue. 1
A Tribune Washington dispatch
says: Some Louisiana liberals are now
in thi3 City discussing the shortest way
out of the political muddle" in that
State, They say that matters have
become so much mixed up there that
they can see nO method of remedy
except in som j sort of reconstruction.
They propose that Congress shall pass a
resolution declaring that a Republican
form Governmet shall no longer exist
in Louisiana, and that it then proceed
to order a new election. . The Sun to
day clls upon Congress to make
thorough investigation into the Louis-
iana case when it re assembfes. The
Sun relutes the assertion that 'tis useless
to investigate the causes ot the quarrel
in Louisiana, and says this disposition
to shirk from the discharge of a great
duty like that which has arisen in that
Statt is an alarming sign of the times.So
iat to sav that a thorough discussion ol
thi3 Louisiana business will do no good
is simply I an excuse for neglecting a
duty whose performance requires skill

We offer, free gratis, and fbi nothing
the following advice to a friend that
lives on our .path home : If you haye
occasion to use a wheelbaiTow, leave it,
when you are through with it, in front
of the house with the handles towards
the door. A wheelbarrow is the most
complicated thing to fall-over on the
face ot the earth. A man -win ran over
one when he neverwould think of fall
ing over anything else ; he never knows
when he. has got through falling over it
either, for it will tangle his legs and
arms, turn over with him', and rear up
in front of him, and just as he pauses
. - . . "... i c
in his protanity to congratulate nimsen,
it takes a new turn and scoops more
skin off of him, and he commences to
evolute anew, and bump hicnseli on
iresh places. A man never ceases to lau
over a wheelbarrow until its turns com
pletely over on its back, or brings, up
against something it cannot upset, xt
is the most inoffensive looking object
there is, but 'it is more tdangerous than
a locomotive, and no man rs secure witn
one unles3 he has a '-tight hold "of its
handles and is sitting down on some
thing. A wheelbarrow has its uses,with
out doubt, but in its leisure moments it
is the great blighting curse on true dig
nity.- ' - - - -
It was a well merited compliment to
one of Norths Carolina's most gifted
sons and most zaalous educators.
