RALEIGH. N.
Scene in an Aetist's Studio.
Some days ago a gentleman from one of
the extreme Western counties called at
the studio of W. Garl Brown, who is
one of the most polite and polished
gentlemen as well as the finest portrait
painter in the South. The stranger en
tered and was courteously received.
"Take a chair," said Mr. B. "Not much
time to si, stranger,'; was the refined
reply to the invitation. "I want a pics
ture taken can you do it ?" Pointing
out portraits of different sizes ; Mr. B.
enquired the prefence of his customer.
"The largest and the best; I have the
money to pay down for - it," was the
magnificent response. The canvas was
soon in readiness and the job regularly
commenced, and "after a half an hour's
sitting the subject was dismissed with
an invitation to call again. He did so,
and according to instructions repeated
his visits for several consecutive days.
At last the potrait was finished. It
suited to a T, and the sitter was de
lighted with the life-like reproduction
on the canvas .of his pulchritude, and
he gave vent to his satisfaction thusly :
Wall stranger, I told you I didn't mind
the expense, and I dont nuther, and
(producing a $10 note) gracious knows
I dont begrudge this money.
Mr. Brown's face at this moment in
dicated some astonishment, but he soon
recovered himself aud quietly informed
his visitor that his charge was$250."TJie
h- 11 you say," yelled the terror-stricken
countryman. "Blacknall at the Yar
borough House told me you would
charge $10 lor your biggest size." "I
think there must be some mistake,"
said Mr. Brown. "I do .not think Dr.
B. would have so misrepresented
me." "I'll swear he did," was the re
sponse. Mr. Brown here betrayed some
little symptoms ot being vexed. "Oh !
you needn't get mad, I urn right.. Aint
your name Watson ?"
"No sir, my name is Brown." '
"Whv the devel didn't you say so at
first?"
Here the curtain drops and we know
riot the fiuale of the scene.

Colored Lodges of Good Tem
plars A Correction. Having seen
in the papers that Lodges of Good
Templars have been recently organized
in-this State among the colored people,
I desire, as the Chief Executive Officer
of the Order in N. C, to state to the
public that such statements are not
true.
Temperance societies have been or
ganized 4imcng the colored people, but
the constitution of the Grand Lodge of
N. C. forbids the initiation of any one
into a Lodge, working under its juris
diction, who is not of pure white blood.
The Grand Lodge of N. C, as well as
other Grand Lodges under the jurisdic
tion of the Right Worthy Grand Lodge,
has supreme control over the question
ot eligibility, and as the word white is
in its constitution, no colored lodges
can be organized under its jurisdiction,
nor can any colored person be received
into the Order in this State so long as
that provision, of the constitution is
binding.
The officers ol the Good Templars in
North Carolina, as well as the officers
ot the Eutin Order South, are ready and
willing to aid in the organization ot
temperance societies among the colored
people, and a Ritual is now being pre
pared for them, which will give them
an organization distinct from the Good
Templars to beraauaged aud controlled
by themselves. -

INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT
Fellow Citizens: Under Providence
I have been called a second time to act
a3 Executive over this great nation. It
has been my endeavor : in the past to
maintain all the laws, and as so far as
lay in my power to act for the best in
terests.ot the whole people. My best ef
forts 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 the office as Chief Exe
cutive began, the country bad not re
covered Irom the effects of a great in
ternational revolution, and three of the
former States of the Uni6n had not
been restored to their federal relations.
It seemed to me wise that no new
questions should be raised so long
as that condition of iiffairs existed;
therefore the past four years, so far
as I could control events, have been
consumed in the effort to restore har
mony, public credit, commerce, and
all the arts of peace and progress. It
is my firm belief that the civilized
world is tending toward 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 support an army less
than that of any European power of
any standing, and a navy less than that
of either of, at least, five of them. There
could be no extension of territory on
this continent, which would call for an
increase of this force; rather might
such extension enable us to diminish
it. The theory of government
changes with general progress.
Now that the telegraph is made
available for communication through,
together with rapid transit by steam,
all parts of a continent are made
contiguous lor all purposes of govern
ment, and communication between the
extreme limits of the country are made
easier than it was throughout the old
thirteen States at the beginning of our
national existence. ..
The effects of the late civil strife
lave been to
the slave and make
him a citizen, vet he is not possessed of
the civil rights which citizenship should
cairy with it. This is wrong and should
be corrected. To this correction J
stand committed so far as executive
influence can avail. Social equality is
not a subject.to be legislated upoa, nor
shall I ask that anything be done to
advance the social status of the colored
man, except to give him a fair cbance
to develop what tDere is good in him.
Give him access to schools, and when he
tiavels let him feel assured that his con
duct will regulate the treatment .and
tare he will receive.
The States lately at with the
general Government ;are now happily
rehabuitated and no executive control
is exercised in any one of them that
would not be exercised in any other
State under like circumstances. In the
first year of the past administration the
proposition came up lor the admission
of banto 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 believe now, as I t'id
then, that it was lor the best interests
of this country for the people of Santo
Domingo and all concerned, that the
proposition should be received favora
bly. It was however rejected. oonstK
tutionally and thcretore the subject
was never brought up again by me.
In future, while I hold my present of
fice, the subject of acquisition of terri
tory must have the support of the peo
ple before I will recommend any propo
sition looking to such acquisition. 1
say here, however, that I do not share
in the apprehension held by many as to
the danger ol the government becoming
weakened and destroyed by reason of
their extension of territory. Commerce,
education, and rapid transit of thought
and matter by ttltgraph and. steam
have changed all this. Rather do I be
lieve that our Great Muster is paving
the way for the world, in his own good
time, to become one nation, seeking one
language, and when armies and navie3
will be no longer required.
My efforts ia the future will be direct
ed to the restoration ot good leelin
betwen the dinerent sections ol our
country; to the restoration ot our cur
rency to a fixed value as com pared with
the world1 standard of values, gold,
and if possible to a par with it ; to the
construction ol cheap routes of transit
throughout the land, t the end that
the proceeds of all sections may find a
market and leave a living remuneration;
to the maintenance of friendly relations
with all our neighbors and with distant
nations; to the re-establishment of our
commerce and share m the carrying
trade upon the ocean ; to the encour
agernent ot such manufacturing inter
ests as can be economically pursued in
this country, to the end that the exports
ot home products and industries may
pay for our imports, the only sure
method ot returning to and per
manently maintaining a specie Da
sis; to 'the elevation of labor and
by a humane course to bring the Abo-
nginees of the : country uuder the be

izaaon. it is eitner tins or a war 01 ex

of the question should be considered,
and the question asked, Cannot the In
dian be mada a useful and productive
member of society by proper teaching
and treatment ? If the effort is made ia
good faith we will fctand better belore
the civilized nations of the earth and in

plished by one individual, but they will
receive my support and such recommen
dations to Congress as will, in my judg
ment be of service to carry thrm in ef
fect. I beg your support and ; encour
agement. 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 appointment and promotions
were established and have been tried.
My efforts for such reformation shall be
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 obligation I am
under to my countrymen for the great
honor they have conferred on me by
returning me to ths highest office
within their gilt, and the further
obligation resting on me to render to
them the best services within my
power. x-
This I promise, looking forward with
the greatest anxiety to the day when I
goal I be released from respdnsibilities
that at times arc almost overwhelming,
and from which I have scarcely had a
respite since the eventful firing upon
Fort Sumter in ' April. 1801, to the
present day. My services were then
tendered and accepted under the first
call lor troops, growing out-of that
event. I did. not ask for place or posi
tion, and was entirely without influ
ence, or the acquaintance of persons ol
influence, but was resolved to perform
my part in a struggle threatening the
very existence of the nation. I per-
ormcd a conscientious duty, without
risking promotion or command, and
without a revengeful feeling towards
anv section or individual.
Notwithstanding this, throughout the
war and from my candidacy for my pres
ent office in 18G8, to the close of the last
Presidential campaign, I have been the
subject ot abuse and slander, scarcely
ever equalled in political history, which
to-day I teel that, I can allord to disres
gard in view of your verdict which I
gratefully accept as my vindication.
