The old mother of Presidents to-day welcomes within her borders a President of the United States, and 1 know that ! voice the aentiineuts of this vast multitude when I tender to yon and the distinguished citizens and statesmen who accompany you a sincere, hearty and cordial welcome to Virginia. Virginians not only feel most profound veneration for the high office whose duties you so ably discharge, but they respect the man who tills it. we share, sir, the feeling so prevalent elsewhere that under your administration the destiny of the country has been com mitted to wieo. conservative and safe hands, and that constitutional liberty is se cure; aye. that constitutional liberty which has been compared to the tail tree which cov ers with its shade a large surface; whose roots sho-u deep and wide through the soil aud entwine themselves around the eternal rocks, so that to pul! it down the earth itself must be upioru. >Ve believe, Mr. President, that you will staud firth in defense ol the principles of the government inaugurated by our forefathers.

May your administration bring to the whole country l giit. life and hope, and may a prayer as cend to oar fathers’ God "That the sword has been beaten into (he plow-bare, and Uift spear into the pruning horn;; that State shall not lift nil its arm against State, neither shall they know war any more;” but that the reign of peace and prosperity shall be as last ing as the home of the stars—ns eternal as the foundations of the everlasting hills.

But the full advantage of that winch maybe yielded to a State by the toil and ingenuity of her people is uot measured alone by the money value of the products. TRUE AMERICANS. The efforts and the struggles of her farmers and her artisans not only create new values in the field of agriculture and in the arts and manufactures, hut they at the same lime pro duce rugged, self-roliaut and independent men, ana cultivate that product which more than all others euobli‘6 a Slate— patriotic, earnest American State—citizenship. This will flourish iu every part of ihe American domain. Neither drought nor ran can injure it, for it rakes root in true hearis en riched by love of country. There are no new varieties iu this production. It must he the same wherever seen, and its quality is u other sound nor genuine unless it grows Lodtca and beaut!fv an entire and united nation, nor un less it supports and sustains the institutions and govern meet founded to protect American liberty unit happiness.
