political. 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. RATES OF ADVERTISING.
