( ''I have a very lively recollection i of ihVii&ugurdieu f James M-idi I son in 1806. The w hole population turned out to witness the ceremonies. Mr. Madison x wa escorted, to the Capito. by a battalion of cavalry and he was constantly cheered, along the Hue "of march. There were, ten thou sand people at the east front of the Capitol aud there was such a pres sure to yet near the platform where Mr. Madison stood that several la dies fainted and there were some fights betw een rowdies. After the in auguration Mr. Madison tried to' get away from the crowd, but they fol lowed his carriage to the White House and such cheering I have never heard since. The President was dressed in homespun, and that seemed to create1 more enthusiasm than anything else. The ladies went wild about -Mrs. Madison. One in cident at the White House gatq caused much excitemeut. The Eng lish feeling had not all died out-at that day, and a niau named M ont goniery, who belonged to a Tory family in Maryland, made himseif very odious by saying that Madison ou:;ht to be hung. The crowd used him pretty roughly gouging out au eye and breaking his nose.. I saw that same fehinv badiy disfigured, at the secJud inauguration of a'disou. 'Tne British having burned tue Capitol, the inauguration of James Monroe in 1817, took place in t ou gress Hall. ' JACKSOU AND ADAMS. A lapjJ'Ajsnistead gives a graphic acQoun't'oC' tlie impressive scnc at the iiiau.ui'tiou of Joim Qaincv Adams, in 1825- aihoun was theu Vice President and Clay was Speaker of the House. General Jackson, who had been a rompetitor for the Presidency, was also present and ex cited gieat app-au&eby Lis pis bin: -n- triatiuotion ol Air. Ada; us. "i.

Why, when Gen eral Jackson came forward aud shook hands with Mr. Adams a man in tue crowd waved his hat and caued out ; "Three cheers for JacksouT' He was very very drunk and there were plenty of other drunken people there aud they cheered for Jackson. About a dozen men were so noisy that the rgiice liud to take them out , of the HJuvitoi. and the.-'couf usion, wivi,teri-f jii boii . wua uj-ou vroiR wuk eda:ong the street and suug dtekson I campaign songj-i-, ftjveai paiiisois weie nved. The saioons . were kept opeu all night and there were any nu ber cf fights. Young despera does, 6ons of farmers in-neighbor -ing couuti s, rode around town all night, hurrahing and singing. At Georgetown there was a geneYal row in a bar room, in which brass knuck-j ies, clubs and knives were used. Sev eral persons were badly hurt, but for a ..ouder nobody was killed. I he next day it was reported that i I enry Clay had been shot at while on his wav from the inauguration ball to his room, but I think that the rumor was false. ' "But nothing occurred iu Wash ington that would etfUal the scenes that took place at the inauguration of Jaekson iu 1859. It se.med that every bully and desperado in the United Mates had suddenly come to the capitol. One-half the men had their pantaloons iu their boos and some of them wore : pistols in fuii view Washington was small then and the hotels aud boarding houses could not hold the crowds. It was the biggest swarm of people ever seen here before,' most oi tlie visi tors being from the South and Y'est. Tennessee being especially well rep resented. Every man carried a hick ory stick and some women wore nee laces made of small kickory nuts fancifully painted. One lady had a bonnet made of hickory leaves, and several horses in the procession had hickory bark bridles. S'jch yeiliug you nevt-r heard. It was like a whoie tribe of Indians let loose on the streets of "Washington. General Jackson seemed to enjoy these out landish demonstrations. He kept his hat off and suiikd at the crowd ofyellers. 'Go in, Andy; we put you there !' and "Give 'em h 1, Andy !' were some of the expressions heard, ail of wliib the General smiled at. Mis idea was that he was the peo ple's President and he wanted to give the people a cordial welcome at the Executive Mansiou. Several hoLsheads of orange punch were ac covdiiurlv prepared for the crowd, ice cream and wines for the ladies HDd everybody' invited. "There must have been ten thousaud peo pie around the White House," said Captain A rmistead "It was really a howling mob, the greater part of it drunk and disorderly. The back woods rowdy was there in his glory. About fifty colored servants were en gaged m dippiu out tlie orange punch and serving it in tumblers on i waiters, but the crowd was impatient I and cursed and yelled. Some of the 1 I. J tlyv i waiters were EDocKeu ei nu mo I tumblers broken. 7. Several of the ne ; gVo 'servants were knocked down. The carpets were wet with punch, I One man struck another with a hick- ory cane. Men jumped upon the damasked covered ; chairs ;with - their muddy boots and called for whiskey. There was nobody to keep order an1 i confusion reigned. A miiiiary officer 4n 'uniform came into the croud., and tried U restore order, but he was booted at. Every time a negro ap peared with something to drink there was a rush for Mm and was almost . mobbed., Some smoked cigars aud ' others chewed tobacco and spat on tie carpet and against the- walls. Finally several , tubs of punch were carried outside the house and the : crowd followed and that was the only ! way the roughs "ould be gotton out of the hite House. - ; . THE I.ECSISI.ATUSIK.

Death w as General Gon3a's kind est fiieud For many year ' he" had anticipated it as a . merciful deliver ance from a life of unremitting toil and agony of mind and body. When he was iu Abyssinia, King ; Johannes said to him : "Do you know that I could kiil you ou the spot if I likedir "Weil," replied General Gordon", "I am ready !"

(He had a wiil asjimperious as Napoleon's ; he had a nature as inflexible' as Crom well's ; he had C'live's gerius for war and fertility of resource ; he had Jan Lawreuce's capacity for i governing semi-civilized races ; he bad -Francis Xavier's overmastering low of hu manity. But with these tiaits were combined a chivalrous deotion to the races for w uom tie JUoored, a contempt for the statesuiinship of Europe, au unquestioning reliance upou the la of his own ouscience, and an inteus religious mture that reflected at once the myiticisin of Mi p.

I looked at what we had bought come to, all figured up. you know, and there was always what you call a balance agin me.

Mr. Randall of the Augusta Chron icle tells a story of Lee aud Grant which is new to us : Just after the war Guiilaume, the artist, painted a j picture of Lee aud Grant at Appo j inattox. True to life, these eminent commanders were delineated accord ing to their respective statures. The work was something of a mas terpiece, but received no favor at the hands of the truly loyal, because Lee was made to tower over Gran. This criticism exasperated Guiilaume, and he ejaculated: "I did not ma'e Grant small. God Almighty made him so!" Many good men and women in tLi-t country will be rejoiced to learn thbt Bob Ingersoll is preparing to go to Europe with his family to remain five years. It wiil be a relief to get rid of "Royal Bob." It is not pleasant to have an audacious and brilliant iu fidel orator dinning his doctrines in to our ears from every platform in the land It would have been a good thing if he had left the country ear lier; jmd it would have been better still if he had never set feet on this planet. During his lifetime struggle with Christianity Ingersoll has pros pered People have crowded to hear his poisonous words, and iu re turn they have gladly stuffed his pockets with then- dollars. Clients have flocked to liini with fat fees. His investments have been success ful, and he now finds himself where he can count upon an assured income of 100,000 a year. He no feels able to take a rest. It is his purpose to enjoy life. For awhile he wiii let the clergy alone.
