INAUGURAL ADDRESS OP GOV.
JENKINS.
Senators and Representatives:
I am here in obedience to the behest of the
people o Georgia, to assume the du ies and
res, onr-ib lities imposed by the cons itution and
laws of the S ate, upon their Chief ma p i tra'.e
Many of you have, in the past, witnessed like
scene - , when some worthy son of the a: dent
commonwealth was inaugurat'd to the same
position, p ovided with abundant re-ourc>s
garnreiin successiveytars of prosperity, and
charged by their skillful'me, to maintain her
Ere tige a’d in r honor, and to prets forward
er illimitable pr< grtss to s.ill h'g'oer achieve
ments in civil zation. Then she was rot napt
ly styled the Empire St .tk of the South
This significant epithet accorded, nut arrogated,
implied the possession in large m‘a=ure, or the
e’ements and attribu'es that combine to pro
duce grt a ness in a State Ii extent of terri
tory, sa übrity ot c rmate, fecundity of soil,
mineral wealth, manufacturing faculties and a
rapidly increa-ii g, virtuou , in tel I gntandmi
t rpr sing popula. on, vigorously improving
the e phvdeal advantages, be rel.ah o indicia,
Georci i did no violence to truth in modestly
accepting the distinction. . .
But war —the reproach of Christian cm ;z i
tion ; the despoiler of the noblest monuments
of human progress—has swept over her moun
tains and her plains, dcsolaud her ci.i-.s and
her fi Id-, waited her accumulated wealth, des
troyed the labor system whence it sprur g irn
m of her strong men ad her
brave vouth , and aped in mourn i - g herma runs
ad hi r hi iidens, and caused the crest s e first
wore sopreu lly, to droop in temporary des
ponder.cy Ail honor to her heroic deal, and
sympathy immeasurable for the gentler ttx,
who bedew their memories vv.lh the tears of af
fection ! • '
These depressing rt fl ctior.s are indulged in
no spirit of reproach or repining. Such mis
chievous pastime can heal no w-unds, repair
no injuries. 1 sketch Georgia as she wa3 ar and
as she is, because, from her abject present, her
glorious past must be re-produetd, andexce.led
in the f iture. This day the mighty work of
re-production begins. Its inception, so far as
depend upon governmental ag ncy. is devolv
ed upon us; and it were well that we look the
Herculean task steadily in the face.
I adveri. to the desolation that now broods
ever our beloved State, for the further purpose
of impressing upon a suffering and expectant
constituency, the peculiar embarrassments that
beset the service they demand of us. Whilst
they hope yet again to see “the wi derness and
the solitary plt.ee made glad for them, and the
desert rejoice and blossom as the rose,” let them
remember that all this is the work of time. —
Let them b;ar in mind moreover, that whi st
it is the of gove. nment to protect and fos
ter individual enterpri-o, that is itself the great
reproductive agent which must lay under con
tribution for the general weal the forest a d the
axe, the soil'and the plough, the mine and the
forge, the wateria 1 and the loom, the 1 icomc
tivo that annihilates spaee, and the steam that
hisses at the burthens with which men seek to
task its latent power.
Then, Senators and Representative-, *ully ap
preciating the diffieult.es that encompass us,
modestly estimating our ability to surmount
them, relyir g upon the patient indulgence and
just, judgment, of a magnanimous constituency,
and, above all, trusting to a favoring Provi
dence, let us earnestly address ourselves to the
work before us, unappalleJ by its magnitude
In thb brief survey, appropriate to this oc
casion, of the field of operation upon which we
are entering, wo are led to consider first cur
" sderal relations, and secondly our homo inter-
Sts. The Constitution of the United States
.efines the f inner, and the Cons itu ion of the
Rate of Georgia indicates our duty concerning
,ho latter. In thesi two great charter' of
liberty, there is no inherent causa of conflet.
As according to Republican theory a'l governs
mcnl is but popular agency -- , so these instru
ments, Construed together, present to the mind
of the inquirer, a c ear, satisfactory division
between the governments they severally in ti
tute, of all the powers necessary to the public
exigencies. Yet we are admonished by histo
ry written in blood, that c >nfl ct has arisen in
the past. Originating partly in the too eager
advocacy of abstract theories, partly in the
sectional jealousies and antagonisms, and en
listing the evil passions of humanity it waxed
fiercer aid fiercer, "as it progressed in a series
of years, and culminated in the attempted sep
aration of some of the American Slates from
the remainder. Memories of common suffer
ings and common triumphs, and anticipation
Os an exalted destiny within the reach of a
united, but unattainable by a divided people,
alike lost their power over men’s minds. The
desire for triumph in the strife thus engender
ed, on both sides speciously, assumed the guise
of patriotism, and inspired men using a common
Shibboleth with mutual aversion. Five years
since Reason abandoned, and the Sword assum
ed the arbitrament. We open not that record
of violence—would that wo could stamp it
with the seal of oblivion ! N»w the wager of
battle is ov3r, and the award is aga’nst us as
parties to the issue, our whole People have
risen up, accepted it as by the will of one mau.
What valor failed to achieve, wisdom has
Eromptly renounced, and truth herself has set
er signet to the attestation of the deed
In the recent remodelling of their Constitu
tion, the people of Georgia have acknow 1 edged
the Constitution, constitutional law?, and trea
ties of the Uaited States, as their supreme law
This means something more than a yielui g
of a contest, or an overture for restoration. It
moans fidelity to the supr me lav in all future
legislative, executive, and jud'cial action, and
in all future movements of the People en masse.
It implies a recognition of duty to, and inter
est in the whole country, as well as to an and in
theS-ateof Georgia It is of course predica
ted upon a reciprocal obligation on the part of
those to whom this pledge is renewed. The
institution of slavery, the fruitful source of
discord in the past, has been off dually eradi
cated frum our social and political systems. It
can.never again disturb the harmony of our
National deliberations without which the Fed
prtl Union muA be a curse instead of a bless
ing If the whole people, repressing all
promptings of secti >nal feeling and interest,
will iaithtully observe a vd obey the Federal
Constitution, coming events may lift the veil
which now covers recent demonstrations of
Prov .clench, and disclose to their rectified vision,
in striding tontrast, ruin caused by human
folly, and relation wrought by Divine Wu-
A• ter Weep ng that has endured through
a long hfj oi civil strife, joy may come in the
morning of reunion.
.' Dpttnot oqr people yield to discouragement
in view of the tardy progress of reconstruction,
or of the suspicion and distrust so palpably
manifested towards tlism Sustained by co
se. >us rectitude, let them maintain with ca’m
and resolute dignity the position they have
taken, *nd await the result A tern nest of un
surpassed fury has s wept over cu? land. The ele
ments do not subside into their normal quiU
instantaneously with the lull of the wind, the
sleep of the lightning and the hush of the
thunder. The smoke of a hundred battles does
not vanish in a moment. But the atmosphere
will char ere lo;.g ; those who cannot now see
h .w men who recently fought with such des
peration t gainst the United State?, can so soon
become -ts real cidz ns, will then look at us
through a rectified medium. It will occur to
th< m that Valor and Truth are twin sisters,
born ofMagr a imity, whose womb never did,
nor never wll conceive treachery They Will
then remember and appreciate the historical
fact that the States now returning, never con
ederat'd against the United States, until e»ch
for herself separated from that Power. And
although they will still hold that act wrong in
principle, and void in fftet, they will find in it
no taint of dupiic ty. They wiil look in vain
through all the tanguinary traces of war, for
the trail of the serpent In due time, consis
t ncy will command confidence; ardsincerity,
like the diamond of the first water, will
sureJly win its own recognition Then our
too eusp’ck u judges wiil marvel less at our ap
proved leaky, than at their own tardiness in
discovering it
Bo the process of restoration 1 ng or short,
when consummated our attitude will and mu-t
be that of strict fidelity to the Unio' - of
< quality with cur associates, and of dignity
sustained by an inner sense of unviolated in
teg ri y..
Turnirg t ur attention to the subject of State
administration, appertaining mere directly to
the tervice upon which we are entering, the
mind involuntarily pau-es upon the cha"ged
relation between the Caucasian and African
races inhabiting Georgia How to secure the
1 liter in the positive er;j jyment of the free
dom with which they have been suddenly in—
ves ed, with the least possible detriment to
both, is a problem full of perpl xity, taxing
all the enegies of astute, uprght intellect. It
is believed that the victors in tne war, by whom
the change has been wrought, an.l who look
the initiative of the process, have reuiz’d in
full force its. extensive difficulties. Its eolu
tion has been already partially, and ere long
will possibly be ful’y, devolved upon the States
mo: c immediately inter, sted, and better fitted
for the work, by reason of their greater famil
iarity with the characteristic traits of the ne
gro, and with the employments in wh ch he
has been trained, and to which his steady ad
herence should be encouraged. The tran ition
from slavery to freedom o. a large is not
a novel one in American hbtory. In several
of the States it has bee a e fleeted without ex
terior intervention, by a process so gradua 1 ,
that no shock has been felt in the labor system,
no frei z ed impulse imparted to the liberated
c ass Upon u ; it has come like the sudden
upheaving, the terrific trembling and the dis
tracted engulfing of the earthquake, in vol
canic localities. But however t fleeted, and by
whatever embarrassments encumbered, the fast
is a>.c empliched—unalterably fixed. Thereal
z;.tion thht it is so is the fi st step towards the
proper adjustment o r anew system, and that, I
am persuaded, is, in its vast m gniluie, its
tremendous consequences, clearly impressed
upon the Southern mind
Any reference in detail, to the aetkm de
rr ad >d y the crisis would be inappropriate to
this occa ion, acd is rendered unnecessary by
the prudent forecast of the Convention re
cent y held, entrusting to five gentlemen
iqially distinguished for ability, experience
and benevolence, the wirk of preparing and
and gesting for jour consideration a system or
code of ; aws adapted to the exigencies of the
new situation, la it you may find valuable
aid I commend it to'your serious considera
tion.
At this time I propose only a reference to
prominent points demanding attention, and
general principles which shouldjjovern our ac
tion. And firs:, I present to you a well merit
ed plea in behalf of the emancipated African.
Hitherto the faithful bondsman of the race
from whose personal dominion he has just been
disenthralled, but upon whose benignity and
justice he still depends for protection, and
advancement, he stands before you an object of
peculiar interest. Happy in the past bondage,
which lightly taxed las physical energies,
abundantly supplied his wants, as well in in
fancy and in o’d age, as in vig rous manhood
—as well in sickness as in health—and which
leaves him at its c’oae immeasurably elevated
above the cotemporary native of Africa, de
scended from the same ances ry, he locks anx
iously to his future, and feels that it is still
measurably in the hands of the proprietary
race It is undeniably true, that during all
the years of his enslavement, he has been mar
vellously quiet, profoundly content with his
condition. And what shall be said of his de
portment daring the last half decade of tad
memories? Whilst your strong men were in
the tented field, far away from unprotected
wives and children, he cultivated their land3,
tended their households, and rendered all ser
vile observances as when surrounded by the
usual controlling agencies And since the fiat
of emancipation, which he neither forced nor
implored, although sometimes unsettled in his
purposes, and inconsistent in his service by con
tract (the natural result of a transition so sud
den and so thorough), I take you all to witness
that, in the main, his conduct has been praise
worthy, beyond all rational expectation. Tell
me not of instances of insubordination as a
slave, and of indecorum as a freedman, that
hatfe transpired in certain localities, or charac
ter zed particular ii dividua's. These are ex>
ceptipnal cases, the general rule being quite
otherwise. Do our ewa race render unvarying
obedience to the mandates of law? Are our
our own offspring, through the years of minors
ity, always subordinate to parental authority ?
Snail, theu, tho less cultivated African beheld
to a stricter sceountability, or be judged by a
higher standard o; moral rectitude ? Tell me
not the race is ungrateful The- assertion is
‘ against the truth of tradition and experience.
I here declare that, in my judgment, their
fidelity in the past, and their decorum under
the distressing influences of the present, are
without a parallel in history, and establish for
them a strong claim upon our favoring patron
age. £s the governing class, individually and
collectively, we owe them unbounded kindness,
thorough protection, incentives, by moral sua
sion, by appeals to their interest, and by just
legal ie traint, to do right, that they may do
well Their rights of person and property
should be made perfectly secure—3o secure'that
they may re Viz > their freedom and its benefits,
ar..d of it they should be encouraged and stimu
lated to make benefit. To this end the C. urts
must be opened to them, aud they be allowed,
iu the assertion aud defence therein of their
rights in civil and criminal ccsiß, the testimo
ny of their own race! As essential to their
well being, theyshou’d le guarded, on the one
hand, against ho crafty machinations of the
designing, and, on the other, against the fatal
and ludon of suc'al and politica l equality
If there be any pseudo-philanthropists who
are inclined .o infuse into their minds this un
friend y and ’ur.on, or to preach to us the duty
of entering upon this levelii g process, let them
open their mission by pointing to examples.
A. siiredly, there is not one to be found beneath
the broad expanse of our Constitution. The
necessity of subordination and dependence
THE MIRROR OF THE TIMES.
should be riveted on their convictions Such
degree of legal res rain. as may be requisite o
this end, is enforced upon us, by a sudden
chaos relation originated neither by them
nor by us ; and, happily for all parties, it need
not conflict with the unvarying observance of
tue law of kindness, which felicitates inter
course between equals, and causes the inferior
to reci gn za the superior a benefactor. No
less able than formerly to fill their accustomed
departments o c labor, they should be made to
roa.ize that this is not only compatible with,
but an indispensable condition of their altered
status If won to the practice of honesty,
sobriety, and industry, they will be for us the
beR laboring c’ass, and wo to them the best
employers, the world can furnish, b cause of
the thorough acquaintance between the c’a ses.
I sp.ak with reference to the present, and the
near future. W'?re it now divulged that, in the
changes to le evolved by time, they are des
tined toa.tain suca aivancement that, in their
da ly interc urse, they shall look in the face no
superior, all philosophy, other than U.opian
—certain y ah American illus
trated by practice—would anticipate for them
an antecedent translation to o:her climes.
Were I so presumptuous as to predict fur them
such a change, b thof conditio , and local hab
itation, ail S vuthtre American voices would
unite In one lou 1 acclaim * So mote it be!” But
our duty is with tue present; and encompassed
as it is with and fficulth s, I say to you, Courage,
Senators and Representatives ; resolutely and
earnestly essay to surmount them all. God is
merciful! God is mighty ! God, in his abound
ing mercy, and in the plentitude of his might,
so dispose our fortunes and thedrs that each
cla-s shall be to the other a blessing, not a
curse! ;
The public property and State Institutions
have suffered much from the positive ravages,
and indirect i; juries of war. The penitentia
ry td flee, although not entirely destroyed, has
been so far consumed by fi:e as to reader it
both insecure and insufficient for the purposes
of its erection.
The Western a-d Atlantic railroad has been
restored to the Sta.o authorities in a dilapida
ted condition, its trunk and branches hastily
and insufficiently aired for temporary use,
many of the buildings important to it, and
essential to its successful operation, destroyed,
and the rolling stick rendered far below the ex
igencies of the service.
The sources of supply to the educational insti
tutions festered by the State have been dried
up, acd new feu tans must be opened to nour
ish them The University, hitherto tiienursery
of statesmen jur s.s, educators ar and ministers of
religion, founded and endowed by our forefath
ers, and reo< g iz dby the c nvention recently
assembled in this Hail as the foster-child of the
State, has been of mcessi y, closed during the
war. Although bereft of lormer immediate
resources without fault on their part, the
trustees, relying on the strength of their cla - m
upon the S.ate secogniz and by the convention
as the bans of the Constitutional obligation
superadded by them, have determined to reopen
the institution in January ruxt
The Asylums for the lunatic, the blind and
the deaf and dumb, three most beneficent char
ities, are !a guishii gfor lack of means.
The emancipation of tlave3, heretofore con
stituting a large item of property, the unques
tionable failure of tile banks (with few ex rep
tion ) rom causes beyond their control, the
utter worthlessness, or great depreciation of
many public, corporate and private s curities,
and various other losses, have materially di
minished the subjects of taxation.
Even moderate lax ition will be felt burden
somely by our impoverished people. But I
doubt not they will cLfckTßilly bear any impo
sition nece sary tain the great public
interest ad avoid%riber suspensions of val
uable institutions and robe charities.
The it debtedness»i f the State is comparative
ly very small. She lias investments far ex
ceeui; gin value its entire amount, and her
other resources, though g-eatly diminished, are
still large Her cirouinstances e join upon her
tuier?, a strict and viEe economy, which is al
ways a public virtq-, but justify no feeling of
despo de; cy. There need be no paraljsis of
the body politic, nq shrinblii g from the main
tenance of greatpkhlic charities, and educa
tional processes hitherto fostered
The demoralizing influences of war upon a
considerable portion of our p opulation are easi
ly discernible by the intelligent ob erver, re
sulting chiefly flom the too great relaxation of
legal restraint. There is, however, a
leaven of virtue anc. intelligence, whose silently
redeeming influence will materially aid the re
establishment of law and order.
Peace returned—the machinery of Govern
ment once more put in operation—public and
private enterprise aroused from their loiig slum
ber—educational institutions reopened—our
sacred temples and our altars with their holy
ministrations frequented as of yore—and the
blessing of Almighty God overspreading and
revivifying all earnest effort, Georg a will
illustrate the teachings of adversity by
speedily achieving an enlarged prosperity.
Senators and Representatives, I tremble in
view of the parta signed me in this work of
renovation, and but tor steadfast reliance on the
Source of all wisdom aud ail power, I would
st this moment relinquish the attempt. I can
promise you, and thruugh you, our noble peo
ple, nought but entire devotion to the public
interest, and faithful effort to perform the high
obligation,. lam about to assume. In your ap
pointed co-operation, I find a stay for my own
weakness. The fundamental law makes us co
laborers, and, let u3 understand, in the begin
ning, that mutual distrus", producing discor
dant cou sels, will assuredly render nugatory
our whole service, and disappoint the just ex
pectation of a A confiding people. Perfect
agreement in tln two departments is not to be
hoped. Toleration of difference on particular
points will promots g' neral harmony and co
operation. Intolerance will be the forerunner
of misrule In this view of our relations, 1
tender you in advance my confidence. I in
voke yours ir. return; and, anticipating a
cordial reciprocity, I have only to add, God
hklp us all ! lam ready to take the oath of
office.
