Monday, March s, 1881. 
on Friday last, James A- Garfield, In the pres¬ 
ence of fully 80.000 people, took the oath or office, 
anil became President or the United States. All 
the exercises were conducted promptly and In good 
Older, and the scenes attending the Inauguration 
were In many respects the most noteworthy ever 
known In connection with a similar ceremony. 
Mr <lar field'sin augural address is dignified In tone 
and devoted to the general subject ot the changes 
wrought in the political system and political lire 
ot the nat ion. It was delivered In a pleasing man¬ 
ner, and received with frequent applause. Among 
the honored of the land who occupied the plat¬ 
form where the address was delivered, Bat. Mr. 
Garfield's mother. She listened with rapt atten¬ 
tion to every word or the address, and after the 
oath ot office was administered, the new President, 
turned reverently and kissed bis mother and 
then his wire. The procession was a grand affair, 
and it was not until about two hours and a halt 
had elapsed from the time the head or the proces • 
Eton passed the President’s stand, that the new 
magistrate was released rrom his labors of bowing 
and saluting the pa9sereby. After the procession 
had disbanded the usual reception was given at 
the White Douse. In the evening, the Inaugura¬ 
tion Ball took place at the National Museum 
Building, and It Is universally conceded to have 
surpassed anything of the kind ever before held. 
Thts closed the day, and our new President and 
Vice President are duly Installed In the highest 
offices with which they can be honored by the 
people. 
President Garfield has chosen, as his cabinet, 
the following named gentlemen: 
Secretary of state—James G. Blaine, of Maine. 
Secretary of the Treasury—William Wlndom, of 
Minnesota 
Postmaster-General—Thomas L. James, of New 
York. 
Secretary ot War—Robert Lincoln, of Illinois. 
Secretary of the Navy—William II. Hunt, of 
Louisiana. 
Aitorney-General—Wayne MacVeagh, of Penn¬ 
sylvania. 
secretary of the Interior—Samuel J. Kirkwood, 
of Iowa. 
The formal presentation of the obelisk to tbls 
city took place Washington's Birthday at the Met¬ 
ropolitan Museum of Art, in the presence ot a large 
concourse of people. Secretary William M. Evarts 
made the presentation speech, and M ayor Grace, 
on the part ot the city, received the gift In a neat 
little speech. Mr. Vanderbilt has given $103,732 
in defrayment of expenses for the removal or the 
monolith. 
After a struggle of several weeks to elect a U. S. 
Senator, Pennsylvania’s law-makers have suc¬ 
ceeded In giving John I. Mitchell that posi¬ 
tion. He came In as a “ dark horse ” at the elev¬ 
enth hour, and was nominated on the 35th ballot. 
The final voce stood Mitchell 160, Wallace 92, Mc- 
Veaghl, Brewster 1. 
The University of Pennsylvania recently con¬ 
ferred the Degree of Doctor of Lawson President 
Garfield. 
The Senate celebrated the anniversary of Wash¬ 
ington's birth by the passage of a Joint resolution 
cogive the Father of his country a thlrty-tuousand- 
dollar monument. This patriotic proposition was 
not adopted without considerable discussion. The 
last Congress, It appears, appropriated $3,000 for a 
stone to mark the birthplace. Senator Johnston 
brought up a new bill to add $27,000 to It, so as to 
make tbe total $ 30 , 000 . 
The Arkansas Senate recently adopted a Joint 
resolution fixing the pronunilatlon of the name of 
the State as “ Arkausaw.' 1 If another resolution, 
making the spelling of the word the latter way> 
should be adopted, something of philological Im¬ 
portance would he accomplished. 
At a meeting of the World's Fair commissioners 
on the23d ulc. Grant said he could not attend much 
to the enterprise for several months, as he in¬ 
tended to leave the city. Do was surprised at the 
little Interest taken In the affair and recommended 
another effort to secure Central Park as a site. 
There still seems to he a considerable uncer¬ 
tainty about the location of the Fair Grounds. 
The attempt has been made to secure a portion 
of Central Park but It has failed. Mornlngslde 
and Riverside Parks have been suggested as being 
better adapted to tbe purpose than Inwood, but It 
is probable thaL the latter site will be the choice. 
Subscriptions are being handed in rapidly, and 
everything looks favorable. 
Minnesota’s oapltol was burned on March 1. The 
flames first appeared In the dome, but soon spread 
rapidly, the old, dry wood.work burning like tin¬ 
der. It Is thought to have been the work of an 
Incendiary. The new market hall Is being fitted 
up tor the use of the Legislature. 
A terrible railroad accident occurred on the 
Ilannlbal and St. Joseph Railway, near Macon, 
Mo., on Tuesday last. Two trains were demolish¬ 
ed, and several persons were killed, and many 
more injured. A broken rail threw the cars from 
the track. 
Another “ worst storm of the season " has been 
raging In the Northwest. Reports from Wisconsin, 
Iowa, Illinois and Michigan say that nothing like 
the storm of Thursday last has ever been known In 
those sections. A dispatch lrotn Elgin tersely puts 
ItNo trains 1 no malls; no Chicago papers; 
no business.” On the Sd Inst, no trains were run 
In the entire State of Wisconsin, and railroad men 
say tbatflt will be a week before trains can be run 
regularly again. The suffering In Interior towns 
was greatest. Much trouble was found, even in 
cities, In procuring food and fuel, and great dis¬ 
tress prevailed. 
The Interest of the Robinson estate in the Rob¬ 
inson Consolidated Mine, near Leadvllle, Col., has 
been sold by the administrator to Wilson Waldlng- 
THE RURAL HEW-Y0RKER. 
ham, of New York, for $ 1 , 000 , 000 . Mrs. Forbes, of 
Plainfield, Mich, Is sole heir to the estate. 
Senator David Davis can safely be said to be the 
most extensive land owuer in central mmols, and 
his total wealth, at a fair estimate, can be placed 
at $ 2 , 000 , 000 . ills taxes amount to about $27,000 
yearly. Although a lawyer and recently a judge, 
Mr. Davis made his fortune la real estate. He has 
the handsomest residence and grounds in Illinois. 
Vennor’s latest forecast or weather for March, Is 
as follows: There will be a rapid moderation on 
the 4th or nth to warmt h, but, the temperature 
will again fall on Sunday night or Monday, and a 
week of extremely cold and stormy weather will 
likely ensue, with some hours or heavy snow falL 
The irth and lsth days, and possibly the 16tb, 
come within another downward curve of the 
weather line, as do also the 24th and 26th. 
The proposals lor the new City Hall In Albany 
were opened Tuesday night. The lowest bid was 
made by Norcross Brothers, Worcester, Mas3. 
Their bid was $200,000. We hope this building 
will not be modeled in all respects after its “ big 
neighbor.”

Trial by Jury. 
Some believe that even this form of trial Is not 
perfectly free from prejudice. But In our section, 
St. Jacobs Oil has been tried by that great j ury 
—the public—and been judged the Infallible cure 
for Rheumatism and all painful diseases.

In response to the offer made by the American 
Humane Association for an Improved car for the 
transportation of cattle, 420 models and almost 200 
plans and sketches were received .... Accounts 
of the famlue in some portions of Russia are de¬ 
plorable. In some villages, It is stated, people die 
of hunger every day, and men pillage solely for tUe 
purpose of being put in prison, where they are at 
least ted enough to keep them from starving. In 
the East, bands ot Kalmucks massacre entire vil¬ 
lages to obtain their provisions. The Baaklrks sell 
thetr children for a little flour, and the Kalmucks 
dig up the bones of horses that died ot the plague 
last, year, In order ’0 grind them for cakes. 
Some villages are entirely deserted, all who were 
able having lied to the cities, abandoning the old 
and young to their fate. The chief trouble is that 
means of transportation are wanted to carry the 
surplus crops of one section to reed the destitute 
In another.Wm. F. Dairymple, of the fa¬ 
mous wheat firm In Dakota, It Is said, claims that 
his clear profit for 1S80 was over $250,000. He raised 
a half million bushels of wheat on 24,000 acres. 
An effort Is being made In the Legislature of this 
State to regulate the storage charges on grain. 
The leading section of a bill for this purpose reads: 
That, the maximum charge of receiving and de¬ 
livering grain shall not exeted one- quarter or one

first 30 days or any part thereof, one cent, and for 
each is days or pait.thereof, afier the first 30 days, 
one.qunrr,er ot one cent per bushel. Provided, how¬ 
ever, that grain damper liable 10 early damage, as 
indicated by Its inspection when received, may be 
subject to one cent a bushel storage for the first 10

per bushel tor each additional five days or part 
thereof. A quarter of one cent per bushel charged 
for receiving gram shall Include all cost or wnat Is

The trouble at Baltimore and elsewhere last Fall 
showed that some law on the matter is needed be¬ 
sides the arbitrary exactions ot warehouse owners. 
Then ultimately “ the farmer payB for all,” and 
all the better for him tr exactions arc moderated 
bylaw.The Signal Service Is perfecting a 
system of weather warnings by which farming

The fuel famine In Minnesota has bdfen so great 
that many of the prairie settlers have burned 
stables, out-houses, rarm implements and even 
furniture to keep themselves from freezing. 
The mortality among stock on the Western 
plains during the Winter has been unprecedent¬ 
edly severe. Thousands have died from cold ag¬ 
gravated by the prostration due to Insufficiency of 
food, and hundreds of thousands from starvation, 
the scanty herbage on which stock eke out a meagre 
livelihood, being burled under an Irremovable 
load of snow. The loss is said to have already 
amounted to 20 per cent. Great numbers ot sheep 
have perished here and there, burled under enor¬ 
mous snow drifts. In many parts of New Mexico 
and Borne parts ot Colorado great numbers of cat¬ 
tle are also dying from eating what Is known as 
the *• Loco” weed, which Is spreading considera¬ 
bly among the wild grasses of that section. It 
becomes green before tbe grasses, and cattle 
therefore eat It. and become affected with a spe¬ 
cies of ‘'blindstaggers,” owing to the poisonous 
nature of the weed. A petition Is being circulated 
for tbe appointment of a government commission 
to investigate the matter and discover an antidote. 
On the tobacco crop ot Virginia alone, the Gov¬ 
ernment receives an annual revenue of about 
$7,009,090. This product of that State Is steadily 
Increasing, notwithstanding it has been grown 
there for nearly two centuries. 
According to latest advices the total amount 
appropriated tor the Agricultural Department Is 
$330,060. Among the special items Is an addition 
of $500 to the salary of the Commissioner (a restor¬ 
ation to $3.600); examination ot and report on 
wool, $5,000; for Investigation or animal diseases, 
$25,000: experiments on tea, $.7,000 ; Insect Inves¬ 
tigations, $ 10,000 ; for continuance of experiments 
on sorghum sugar, $ 17 , 000 ; beet sugar, $' 0 , 000 ; 
for a building on the department grounds for the 
display of agricultural Implements, $ 10 , 000 .
