J ill oln minx tumircf. L. XVI. COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1874. NO. 277 VERNOR HOUSTON’S ugurAl AcftcftrosB. Citizen*:—lu obedience to A established cue tom, I appear before yon to-day to take, in roar presence, the oftafttl oath prescribed by the Conatitu- flk of the State of Alabama for her chief itajlltive officer, and to assnme the high 1D& respouhible dntiea of the exalted sta tion, to which I have been ealled by the Toiee of her people. Notwithstanding the years of expert- enoe in the public service, through which <* v.. boeu U1 ^ f ortuue to p a88< f am f tee to eon fens more than mere distrust of my own ability, to discharge the many grave and responsible duties of the offioe iuto which I am now to be inducted. But a firm determination to respeot and ntain uiy oath of office, which shall bo a1 to iny conscience, I unhesitatingly deriske to perform such duties as it poses, and I will regard it as one of my gbest and most sacred obligations to e that the laws “are faithfully executed" nd the rigbtH of all citizens, “without egard to race, color, or previous condi tion," duly guarded and protected. Let this occasion inspiro the conviction that we live in a land of liberty, regulated by law, without which the citizon would have no security against domestic discord or violence; and that our duty to pre serve such laws, in their coustutional pu rity and power, should not and cannot be voided. We have just passed through an aotive ud intensely earnest political contest; d while it is both an honor and a pleas- e to me to congratulate you and tho tin try upon the glorions and decisive ctory achieved by iht good and true oplo of this once more proud and noble ate, yet in our congratulations and re- icing we should be coutrolled by a wise d patriotic sense of duty, both to the untry at large and odr own immediate llow-citizens. Let us dismiss from our thoughts and orget whatever acrimonies thero may ave been engendered by tho severe con- ict in which we have b^n so recently engaged, and draw from it only lessons of moderation and wisdom, which shall be exercised for the improvement of tho resent and for our guiaunce in the fa re. We should understand our viotory, id so employ it as to profit br its re sult#. Our rejoicing should not be alone .because of a triumph over a defeated ad- A Ternary, but also because of the success of l those great principles whioh we believe " essential to the successful administration of good government: and in the day of our gladness we rnuut not forget our obliga tions and responsibilities to the gtate, im- ►sod upon us by our suooess. Alabama is embarrassed—her indebted- great, and her people are itupov- trished. Time will be neoesB&ry to cor- ect errors in the past and establish con- deuce in tho future. We must restore ie credit of the State to its former high td honorable position—preserve invio- b her good faith, and at the same time itect her people against excessive, un- t and improper taxation. Wise legis- ition ia required to aocompliah these rads. The expenses of tho administration of inr State Government should be reduced such nude and to such as the wisdom of the legisla- , iu view of proper ocouomy, may suggest. We will not have dis charged the high trust committed to us by the people, if we fail to abolish every uuuecessary office and prevent every uu necessary expense. All the departments of the State Gov ernment are now to be placed in our bauds, uud it is eminently our duty to correct abuses, and introduce those uoc- essary reforms, which, while they will give greater efficiency to the administra tion of tho State Government, will at the same time curtail its expenses. To you, Senators and gentlomen of the House of Representatives, the country will rightfully look, and I trust not in vain, for that just and wise legislation without which tho great interests of the State and her people will languish and ocotne paralyzed. Such laws faithfully nd properly enforced oumuiand the re peat and confidence of the people, and ve assurance that security and protec- ion are to be afforded to all classes of nr. citizens. In tho attainment of these desirable nds I will regard it as my duty, as it will : my pleasure, cordially to oo-operate th tho .Legislative department of the te Government. In our complex sys- m of Government, Federal and State, soineliineH occurs that powers not anted by the Constitution are claimed d exercised. Now, while it is not my purpose on this oooasion to discuss ques tions of Federal policy, or authority, yet bh powers destructive of the liberties of the people, have been claimed and exer cised by ttio use of the bayonet in a time of profound peace, I trust I may express the confident hope, that as one of the fruits of the recent political revolution, our State has escaped the dangers that seemed to threaten her existence as a State of our common Union. We may certainly hope that by a proper and just administration of her State Government, avoiding on our part any olaim of power to which we are not clearly entitled thus giving no pretence for snob dangerous usurpation, Alabama may not in the future have cause of apprehension, or rounds of somplaint in this regard. The preservation of the just rights of e States, as well as those of the Federal 'vornment, is, iu my judgment, essen- 1 to iho maintenance of our Repuhli- n system of Constitutional Goveru- ent; and every departure from these Inoiples, established by our fathers, aliens the faith of the patriot and ex- tes the fears of every friend of Amen- n freedom. Alabama iH destined, at a day not dis- nt in the future, to beoome one of the ost prosperous and wealthy States of o grand sisterhood. She has uncounted illions of wealth embedded in her ountains and her valleys, as well as in er agricultural fields of unsurpassed fer tility, producing every variety of crop known lo this lutitnde. The commer cial, mechunioul aud other interests of her citizens w ill, it is hoped, speedily emerge from the depression that has for a time retarded their prosperity. Manufactories of all kinds are gradually building up in all parts of the State, which, turuing to aceoont this mineral wealth and increasing the value of our ag ricultural productions, must rapidly ad vance tho State of Alabama to that high rank among tho States to whioh her vast natural advantages entitle her. Immigration and capital are necessary aids in the development of these different interests. These aids may be invited and encouraged by such prudent and wise leg islation as will give just assurance that Tho diffhsion of knowledge amongst tho people promotes their prosperity and happiness, os well ns'the success of tho Government. The more universal end thorough their education tho wiser and more permanent will bo the Government. Wo should therefore give such encourage ment to Iho education of the children of our State as may be consistent with her other duties aud obligations. Governments are wdde by the peop’e to secure their happiness aud to protect their rights, and it is the duty, of thoso who may be selected,to administer them, to do so with reference to tho attainment of theso ends. So far as it may be in my power as the Governor of the Stale of Alabama, I hhail regard it as a sacred du ty unceasingly, to use all proper means for the accomplishment of these grand purposes. “With malice towards none, and Chari ty for all," the citizens of Alabama truly desire poaco and a perfect restoration of fraterual relations betweon all sections of our ooimuon country. They are loyal to the Government of tho United States,and will readily yield n cheerful obedience to its authority aud laws: they only ask to be permitted, under the Constitution and laws of tho country, to exercise, secure from unwarrantable interference, the riulit of governing themselves at borne by n jnst and wisely exercised right of local self-government. Fellow-citizens, I have thus briefly and imperfectly indicated tho line of policy which I, as tho chief Executive officer of the State, will fee! it my duty to pursue in the administration of tho Stato govern ment. It only remains for mo to reassure you of my unalterable purpose firmly and faithfully to discharge my duty towards all the peoplo of the State; invoking in this behalf the aid of au Allwise and kind Providence.

Important Railroad Invention. We learn that Messrs. W. C.

At this speed the application of the brake brought the train to a stop in twenty-live seconds. It is stated that a train of four or five cars running at tho same rato of speed could be stopped in from fifteen to eighteen seconds. This brake, it is claimed by the inventors, can be put on a car or eu- gine for one-third the prioe of others, aud can bo used at all times or at all stations. r Particular* — Dau«f« to Former*. Th* People No Bering for Breed t WRICKED TRAIN—NEW YORK PROMISES All). Tuscumbxa, Ala., November 25.—The storm Sunday evening was most disas trous in its effect upon the surroundiug oountry. Houses were unroofed, aud fences blown down in every direction. Large trees were torn from the gronud and carried away many yard*, crushing cabins and outhouses as they went. Af ter the tornado left Tuscuinbia, it seemed to huvo spent its force or risen above tho honaewf then having apparently gained uew strength, it came down upon tho farm of Renj. Wilson, six miles from here, and totally destroyed his residence, corn crib aud gin house. It then passed up the at ream known as Pond creek levelling thousand* of forest trees. Some miles further on tho farm houses and out buildings of Wilkes Davidson, a well kuow’ii citizen, were destroyed, as was also the houso of Ira Jarman, an exten sive farmer. Scores of negro oabins were blown down, and two black men killed. Several otheis were slightly wounded. The loss to Tuscumbia ia fully as much as at first reported. Among the property destroyed was two grist mills, which sup plied the town with meal, and the want of this article of food is beginning to be seriously felt. Many of the houses that were not blown entirely down have been rendered unfit for habitation, and nearly every building iu the place has been more or less damaged. Provisions are giving out. Tho train which went over tho embauk- rneut, at Spring creek, on the night of the storm remains iu the samo position. The broken bridge cannot be ropaired for several days, aud all trains from Mem phis are delayed several hours. ilio baggage master and fireman who went over tho embankment with the train are now out of danger, but the condition of the engineer iH critical. All those who were wounded by the fall ing buildings are doing well. Many of the buildings which remain standing prove upon examination to be in an unsafe con dition, and several of thorn will have to bo torn down. Mayor Havemeyer, of New York, re ceived a dispatch from the Mayor of Tns- cumbia, yosterday, appealing for help for tho destitute of that town. Havemeyer promises to forward all subscriptions.

Hcott, President of the Peunsylvania Hailroad, was here to-day consulting with Congressmen about a measure which it is proposed to introduce at its coming' ses- tiiou, to aid in completing the construc tion of the Texas Pacific Hailroad. Col. Scott says OUi miles of road have been built, and 1,000 to build in order to reach tho Pacific const. The bill whioh will probably be offerod to Congress provides that tho Government shall guarantee a payment of interest on $70,000,000 of the company’s bonds. To seouro the Gov ernment against loss, the company pro pose to give the first mortgage upon the road and all its branches, rolling stock, lands, etc. The bonds are to be forty years, at five per cent, interest, payable in gold. The bill provides that they be issued to the company at tho rate of thir- ty-fivo thousand dollars per mile, for all except that part which crosses the mountain, where it will be forty thousand dollars per mile, upon completion by tho company and accep tance by the Government, upon eaoh sec tion of twenty-miles. It is the opinion of Col. Scott, that should Congress agree to the pioposition of the company, the Government never would be called upon to pay a dollar of tho interest. Iu his judgment, tho road, when built, would not only bo self-sustaining, but would soon earn money for its stockholders. THE WEATHER. Washington, Nov. 25.—Probabilities.— For the South Atlantic States cool and generally clear weather will prevail, with north or west winds and a slight change in the barometer. • For tho Gulf States, Tennessee and Ohio valley clear and fair woathor, vari able winds backing to west and south, slowly rising temperature and stationary or falling barometer. —Alexander U.
