GRANT'S INAUGURAL-BAD WEATHER-ATTA CS OF THIEVES ON THE STREET CARS-JOHNSON DOES NOT APPEAR AT THE INAUGURATION-GRANT'S PATHES HAS A FALL-BIBMASOK BENDS AN OM? INOUS MESS A IE-PRESIDENT JOHNSON POCKETS MANI BILLS. WASHINGTON, THURSDAY, March 4.-General Grant wis inaugurated as President of the United States shortly after noon .o-day, in the presence of one of the most immense assemblages ever gathered in the national capital. The display was magnificent. The proces? sion which escorted the President elect from bis headquarters to the capitol was tbe grand? est ever seen here. The whole city was gaily decorated with flags, and the accession of the sew President was welcomed by salvos of ar? tillery both at the spot and at all the military pos* in the neighborhood. 4* The weather was bad, but not enough so to interrupt the ceremonies. Early in the morning & build of thieves attempted to rob the street cars, but after a severe fight they were dis? persed by the police, several being captured. Otherwise perfect order was maintained. The ceremony of swearing in General Grant took place on a large raised platform on the east front of the capitol, where thousands could see, but few could hear what was said. Here Grant delivered his inaugural in a / rather low voice, as follows : 1 INAUGURAL ADDRESS. CUizens oj the ruted ?ta?es-Your suffrages i ha fing elected me to the office of President of the United States, I have, in conformity with the constitution of oar country, taken the oath of office prescribed therein. I have taken this oath without mental reservation and with tbe determination to do, to the best of my abil itv, all that it require*, of me. The responsibilities of the position I feel, but accept them without fear. The office has como to me unsought. I commence its duties un? trammelled. I orin? to it a conscientious de? sire and determination to fill it to the best of my ability to tbe satisfaction of the people. On all leading questions agitating the public mind, I will always express my views to Congress, and urge them according to my judgment, and when I think ic advisable, will exercise the con? stitutional privilege of interposing a veto to defeat measures which I oppose; but all laws will be faithfully executed, whether they meet my approval or not. I shall on all subjects have a policy io re? commend, bat none to enforce against the wil^ of the people. Laws aro to govern all alike, those opposed to, as well as those who favor them. 1 know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their stringent execution. The country having just emerged from a great rebellion, many questions will come be? fore it for settlement iu the next four years which preceding administrations bave never had to deal with. In meet mg theso, it is de? sirable that they should be approached calmly, without prejudice, hate or sectional prido- re? membering; that the greatest goud of tho greatest number is the object to bo attained, of person, property and for re?gious and poiit cal opinion iu every part of our common coun? try, without regard to local prejudices. Laws to secure theso ends will receive my host ef? forts for their enforcement. A great debt has been contracted in securing to us and our posterity the Union. The pty ment of this principal and interest, as well as the return to a specie basis as soon as it can be accomplished without material detriment to the debtor class or lo tho country at large, must be provided for. To protect the national honor, every dollar of government indebted? ness should be paid in gold, unless otherwise expressly stipulated m the contract. Let it be understood that no repudiator of one farthing of our public dobt will be trusted in public place, and it will go tar towards strengthening a credit which ought to be tho best in the world, and will ultimately enable us to replace the debt with bonds bearing less interest than we now pay. To this should be added a faithful collection of tho revenue, a striot accountability to the treasury for every dol!ar co'leoted, and tho greatest practica? ble retrenchment in expenditure iu every department of the government. When we compare '.ho paying capacity of the country now with ten States still in poverty from tho effects of wai, but soon to cmcrfio, 1 trust, in greater prosperity than ever beforo, with its paying capacity twenty-five years ago, and calc?lalo what it probably will be tweuty-five years hence, who can doubt tho feasibility of paying every dollar then with more ease than we now pay for useless luxuries. Why, it looks as though Providence had Viestowed upon us a strong box; the precious metals locked up in the sterile mountains of tho far West, which we aro now forging the key 'o unlock io meet the very contingency that is now upon us. Ultimately it may be necessary to increase ti|e facilities to reach these riches, and it may be necessary also that the general government should give its aid to secure tho access. But that sbonld only be when a dollar of oblig-a tion to pay secures thc dollar to us now, and not belore. Whilst Ibo question of specie payments is in abeyance, the prudont b ness man is careful about contracting de payable in tue distant future, and the na should follow the same rule. A prostrate commerce is to be rebuilt all industries encouraged. The young me tue country, those who from their ago mus its rulers twenty-five years hence, ban greater interest in maintaining thc natic honor. A moment's reflection as to wbat be our commanding influence among the tions of thc earth in their day, if they only true to themselves, should inspire tl with national pride. All divisions, geograj cal, politica.1 and religious, can join in t coinniou sentiment. How the public debt is to be paid or ape payments resumed is not so important as t a policy should bc adopted and acquiesced The determination to do is worth more tl divided councils upon the metbod of doi Legislation upon this subject may not bo cessary now, nor even advisable; but it will when the civil law is more fully restored in parts of tho country, and trade resumes wonted channels. It will be my endeavor to execute all Ia in good faith, to collect all revenues asscssi and to have them properly accounted for a economically disbursed. I will, to thc b;st of my abilily, appoint offieo only those who will carry out thin ( si sro. In regard to foreign policy. I would di with nations as equitable law requires indiv uals to deal with each other, and I would p' tee i tho law abiding citizon, who I her of nati or of foreign birth, wherever his rights a jeopardized or the fl ig of our country thats, would respect the rights of all natioi demanding equal respect for our own. others depart from thi? mle in their dealin with ns, we may be compelled to follow thi precedent. Tbe proper treatment of the original occ pants of this land, the Indian, is one deserv?; of careful e t udy. I will favor any course to war thuin which tends to their civilization, cur: tiamzation and ultimate citizenship. The question of suffrage is one which is like to agitate the public so long as a portion their people'ia to bc excluded fro m its privileg in any State. It seems to me very destral that this question should be settled now, anc entertain the hope and express the desire th it maj be by the ratification of the Fifteen article of amendment to the constitution. In conclusion, I ask patient forbearance, on towards another, throughout the land, and determine J effort on the part of every citizt to do his anare towards cementing a happ union; and I ask the pr ayers of the nation t Almighty God in behalf of thia consnmmatioi President Johnson did not occupy the plat reserved for him in the inauguration ceremi nies, but remained at the White House signin bills. Among thc spectators on the floor of tl Senate to-day, were tho negro bishop, Cam] bell, and the woman's rights miss, Dr. Mai Walker. Tho President has pocketed the followin bills : Bill to reorganize thc judiciary; bill t reduce the navy and marine; bill for tho furtho security of equal rights in the District of Co lumbia; bill strengthening the public credit. Th*) Indian Appropriation bill /ailed to read the President. Johnson remained at the White House unti noon. Grant went direct from the Capitol to tin White House. The delegation from Alabama was the onh Southern organization in the inaugural pro? cession. Grant's father fell down the Capitol step and was considerably injured. The utmost good humor prevailed through ont the day. On reaching the White House, Grant receiv cd the following dispatch : r* "BEBLTN, March 4.-My congratulations 01 the solemn day.

Pill-bury Demands the Office-t lark Re? fuses and is Arrested-Ho Gives Bail for $3000- Probability of two Mayors. At au early hour yosterday morning there was a larger gathering than usual around the City Hall of the friends of Mr. Pillsbury, who were evidently aware of the developments on the (apis. About 10 o'clock, Mr, Pillsbury, accompanied by Mr. T. J. Mackey, Lieutenant-Colonel Moore, United States army, aud Mr. COOK, re? porter of tho Republican, called on Mayor Clark io bis ofbee in tho City Hall, and maJc a formal dem ind on him for the office of Mayor and its appurtenances. Mayor Clark declined verbally to accedo to the demand' contained in the brief document handed him by Mr. Pillsbury, and informed him that he would furnish a written reply at half-past twclvo o'clock, which he did at the appointed hour. Thc following aro the papers which were ex? changed : Cn ARLESTO N, S. C., March 4, 1809. George W. Clark, Esq , Acting Mayor of Charleston, S. C.: SIB-Having duly qualified as Mayor of tho City of Charleston, 1 hereby demand that yon surrender forthwitli all books, records, papers and property appertaining to said office, pur? suant to the act of the General Assembly of South Carolina (a copy of which is hereunto annexed), entitled "An act to confirm and de? clare valid the recent election of Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Charleston,'' approv? ed March 1st, 18C9. I am, sir, very respectfully, GILBERT P'LLSBUBT, Mayor of Charleston, S. C. CITY HALL, MATOB'S OFFICE. ) CHABLESTON, S. C., March 4,1869. J Hon. Gilbert Pillsbury: SIB-I am in receipt of your note of 4th March, 1869, elating that you have qualified as Mayor of the City of Charleston, and demand? ing that I surrender to you forthwith all books, records, papers and property appertaining to said office, pursuant to act or Assembly to con? firm and validate the recent election of Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Charleston, ap? proved 1st March, 1869. In reply, I beg leave to state that I am ad? vised that the act of Assembly, to which yon refer, is contrary to the Charter of the City, as well as to the Constitution of the State and of the United States, and can therefore confer upon yon no authority to demand the office. In the face of the recorded decision of the Acting Board of Aldermen against your claim to the office, and in the absence of auy judg? ment at law establishing your right, which right han been contested, 1 regard it as my duty to protect the public franchises of the corporation, and therefore decline the surren? der of the office of Mayor and of the papers and properties ot the city until the proper tri? bunals shall have determined your right. I am, sir, very respectfully, fours, ?fcc., GEORGE W. CLASS. Mayor of tho City ot Charleston, S.'C. Subsequently Mr. Pillsbury repaired to the office of Magistrate Mackey, when a warrant was issued under bis affidavit for the arrest and prosecution of "G. W. Clark, Acting Mayor of Charleston," on a charge of misdemeanor, founded on thc statuto of August 15, 1808, regulating thc tenure of certain offices, ?cc, which prescribes a penalty by fino, not less than $1000 and imprisonment at hard labor in thc penitentiary for not less than one year. When arrested nt bis office by officer Wolfe, Mayor Clark said that he ''did not think that the Chief Magistrate of the city could be ar? rested," and upon showing him the warrant of arrest he refused to comply; but after some consideration be said, "Perhaps I am wrong; I will either bo at Mackoy'd office in one hour or will not co ne at all; if I am not there at tho time specified I refuse tbearrost." At fifteen minutes to thrco o'clock P. M. the Hon. W. D. Porter appeared at Mr. Mackcy's office for Mayor Clark aud expressed a desire to examine the warrant, which he did, anl stated that Mayor Clark would bo there at tho hour named. At three o'clock P. M. Mr. Clark appeared in company with D. Jennings, Esq., and Andrew Simonds, Esq., President of the First National Bank, who entered into recognizance for three thousand dollars for his appearance at thc Court of General Sessions on thc 1st of June, 1869. This concludes the matter so far, but there is a rumor afloat that Mr. Pillsbury intends to establish himself in office, and discharge the functions of the Mayoralty to the disregard of tho present incumbent. This will bring about a pleasant state of affairs in the coninunity, and what the result will bo may bc conjectured. DESPERATE A FER AY IX EDGE FIELD. [From the Augusta Chronicle, March L] On yesterday morning th ero was au auction sale ot' bank furniture in Hamburg, iu front ot a atoro on tho corner of Centre and Mercer strocts. While thc salo was in progress a Mr. Sharpton. with two pack? of Aro crackers in his pocket, aided bv a young mau, William W. K.mucdy, tho County Marshal, Mt fire to ODS of t he packs in tho strcta and then slipped back into tho crowd without being detected. Tue noise made by the explosion was heard bj the County Commissioner. J. J. Kennedy, an uncle ol tho marshal, who atemptcd to dis? cover tho authors of the disturbance, I ut un successful y. He having retired, Wil? liam W. Kennedy and a young mau. J. Henry Keyes, procured more of the fire-crackers, and tho former holding, the latter E?t thom on fire. This repetition of tho offence again brought out tho commissioner, and still unable to discover thc perpetrators, in a very ex ited manna- ho exclaimed aloud, that whoever did it was a ?-d d-d rascal. At this remark Keyes stepped forward, and said, "I shot the crackers, aud am no more a G-d d-d rascal than you are." Tho older Kouue y then drew a pistol from bis m.le, and Keyes whipped oat a largo knife, while at the same time thc younger Kennedy, taking his relative's part, drew a revolver ?iud fired ou Koyes, but missed his target. Keyes imme? diately turned and left the place, baying that ho was unarmed, but would re.um in ? little whilo better prepared. When Lc ha.l gouo, Konnc day, the jomuiissiouer, enten d a house near thc "iiuer, while Kennedy, tho marshal, re? mained to await his antagonist's return. lu a few minutes Kcyo- was seen advancing down thu street toward K'.-iinedy. with a pistol pre? sented, and thc latter jumping behind the trunk of a .argo tree which grew on the edge of tho pavement, fired upon thc former, bul again misting. Without returning the flic, Keyes still advanced when Kennedy fired again, but p'lll without cd'^ct, but at tho second lite Keyes h.msclf shot and. a por? tion of his antagonist's person being uncov? ered by a . bend" in tho tree-trunk, the ball entered bia groiu, inll.cling a very dan? gerous wound. '1 hough shot, Kennedy fired twice again, but with no bottor success than formerly, ant) then, his ammuni? tion being exhatiaio'l. he stooped from behind the tree, begging Keyes not to shoot, as he was unarmed. Keyes' friends also interposing he put up Ins pistol, and Kennedy, sinking rap? idly, was carried away in what was supposed to be a dying condition. While the fight was progressing below, thb elder Kennedy, from a second-story window, is said to have fired on Mr. Kobert Keruk'bau. one of Keys' friends, but did not Int Lis mark. l?r. Flournoy Car? ter, summoned lo attend Mr. Kennedy, pro? nounced the wound dangerous, bat, perhaps, not mortal. We understand that there has been, for somo lime, had blood between the tvi o families, caused by Commissioner K. ntie tly'b believed complicity in thc arrest of young Keyes' father, last year, and subsequent brutal treatment, by thc Federal soldiers at Aiken, which fact may throw lome light on the bloody affair. No arrests have as yet been made ol any of the parties concerned. FROM THE STATE CAPITAL. The Port Royal n ai'road Bill-Details ol* thc Job- A Hope or Defeating lt in the Senate-Thc Fifteenth Amend? ment. [FROM OUR OWN CJBBESPONDENT. 1 COLUMBIA, S. C., March 3.- The Port Royal Railroad bill, after a big fight, passed its se? cond reading in tho House of Representatives to-day. Tho bill bad beeu fixed up giving tho State supreme control of the road when butti, and creating the belief that it is to be altogeth? er and entirely a State enterprise. Provision is made giving the State the privilege of three directors, and a perpetual right to fix the faris, limiting it at present to four cents a mile for through or way travel. It only calls for one million one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, in coupon bonds of the State, S?icl bonds to be dated the first day of January, 18G;), and made payable to bearer in the City of Nov? York nineteen years after date. In ex? change, the bonds of tho company, signod by tho President and countersigned by tho Treas? urer for a like amount, aro to be delivered to tho State Treasurer, and made payable to thf- State of South Carolina or bearer, in the City of New York. A provision is made that these bonds shall maturo at the same time and bear tho same rate of interest as thc bonds of the State authorized to be issued. Section 4, which caused the most opposi? tion, makes it tho duly of the State Treasurer, on tho delivery by the company or their bonds to tbe amount of $150.000, to deliver to tho president of the company State bonds to the amount ol' $150,000, and, upon satisfactory proo. being furnished tho Governor that a section of ten miles hos been completed, and upon tho de? livery of the company's bonds to the amount of $150.000 to tho State Treasurer, the Governor is to transfer to the president of thc road a like amount of State bonds, and exchanges shall be made in like manner upon the completion nf every subs?quent section of ten miles until all the said bonds have been exchanged. Section 5 gives tbe State a first lien on all the property, rights and franchises of the company, and il after the completion of the road, the company fails to pay interest within two years, or said company shall fail to pay their bonds within twelve months, the road is to be forfeited to the State. 1 Section 7 provides for a special tax of ; one-twentieth of one per centum per annum upon all taxable property of the State, to raise a sufficient sum to pay the semi-annual inter? est coupons of the aforesaid State bonds. Section 8 provides the road shall be sub? ject to State taxation on all its property. Section 10 authorizes the company to con? struct a branch of their road to tbe vicinity of Aikon or Granitoville. The bill will receive ito third reading in Ihe House to-morrow, and go to tho Senate, where it will meet with the most strenuous opposition. As its final passage re? quires a two-thirds vote, a successful result in that body seems extremely doubttnl. The following paper was presented to be on tered on the journal of the House : I desire my name recorded as voting "no" on tbe rassage of beni o a 1 of a bill entitled "A bill to aid Ihe Port Royal Railroad," because I doubt tbe goner-* al policy of thc bill, and thiuk the provisions of this sectioa abominable. O M. DOYLE, Of Oconee county. The bill to establish a Boord of Land Com missioueis, which pa sed tho House to-day, was read a first time in the Senate.

SEC 2. That a claim for labor, whenever perform? ed, shall coustitule a lien having a priority over all other liens. All arts and patts ol'acts inconsistent with this act bu and the same are hereby repealed. Ibo bill was finally laid on the table to take up a bill to define contracts for laborers and for other purpose?. Tho further consideration of this bill was postponed to tike up the bill to aid the Port RV. al Railroad. Jillson, from tho Special Committee on the Removal of Political Disabilities, reported, on behalf of that committee, the following; joint r?solution ratifying the Fifteonth amendment lo the Constitution of tho United Staten, with a recommendation that tho sama do pass : Whereas, Both Houses of the Fortieth Congress of tho Uni cd ?tates of America, at its third seesion. by a constitutional majority of t jro-thirds (hereof, made tho following proposition io amend the Constitution of the United Mates, in the following word?, to wit: 'Beit resolved, by taejaenateaud House.of Repre? sentatives ot the United States of Am-rica, in Con? gress a-sembled, two-third* of both Houses concur? ring, ibm tho Allowing amendment to the Consti? tution ot thc United Mates be submitted to the Le? gislatures of the several Matee, and, when ratifica by three-fourths thereof, it shall bea part of said consti? tution: "ABTICLE XV.

OBITUARY. Lamartine. The cable announces the death, at Paris, on Monday last, of Lamartine, the French poet and historian, in the seventy-ninth year of his age Alphonso de Lamartine was born at Macon in 1790. His father was an offioor of cavalry under the Bourbons, and bis mother a daugh? ter ol Madame de Rois, nnder-governoss to the Orleans family. Young Lamartine was edu? cated in the College of the Peres de la Poi, within the cloisters of which tho futuro poet and historian received thc education which de? veloped his remarkable and peculiar powers of mind. On the fall of the First Emp're ho offer? ed his services to the restored Bourbons and entered the Gardos do Corps, but alter tho Hundred Days quitted the army. lu 1818 he published "Meditations Po?tiques," which had an immense circulation and placed him at once in tho front ranks of tho poets of thc time. He afterwards accepted the post of Secretary to thc Kmbassy in London, and soon after was married to Miss Birch, an English lady of for? tune. He was subsequently Charge d'Affaires at Florence, and while there became involved in a duel with General Repe, caused by a politi? cal controversy, in which duel he was severely wounded. On tbe eve of the revolution which drove the Bourbons a second time from France, ho was nominated Minister Plenipotentiary to Greece. Alter Louis Philippe ascended the throne ho offered to confirm Lamarline's ap? pointment to the Greek Embassy, but.the pro? posal was rejected. Tho poet afterwards spent many months in travel throughout tho East in a ship which he fitted out for himself, and upon his return to Frau ce be became promi? nent as a member ol tbs Legislature of his nativo country, lt was at this time that he published bis famous "History ot the Giron? dins." Iiis history during and since the revo tion of 1848, in Paris, is well known to every student of tho affairs of modern times. Krieg >on. John Ericsson, tho celebrated engineer, diod last week at Richland, New York, from the ef? fects of the bite of a dog. He was born in the province of Vermclsnd, Sweden, in tho year 1803. When quite young he evinced a uccided iodination for mechanics, and in 1814 was, through the influence of Count Platen, appoiutedcidot in a corps of en? gineers, and was subsequently enrolled as an ensign in tho Swedish army. lu this position ho was ordered to tho survey of Ixortborn Swe? den, and roso to thc rank of lieutenant. In 1820 he visited England for tho purposo of bringing into notice his "flame eugine," and in 1829 he entered into competition for the best locomotive, and produced a machine which obtaiued tho then incredible speed of fifty miles an hour. In 1833, ho brought out a "caloric eugine." a modification of the air en? gine, and m 1837 introduced to public notice his screw piopollcr. A small tug, forty-five feet long, eight broad.- and o? twenty-seven feet draught, constructed by him, towed a ves? sel of six hundred and thirty tons on tho Thames agains t the tide at tho rate of four and-a-half knots per hour. Noue ot thr-ac in? ventions were received favorably by tho British Government, or by tho pcoplo ot England, nnd ill 1839 Ericsson carny over to tho United States, and, together with tho Stocktons, intro? duced the screw propeller in American waters, lu 1853 Ericsson built a steamer of twenty-two hundred tons burdon, propelled by a caloric engine, but the result of tho experi? ment was not successful. In 1801, ihe well known Monitor was built by Ericsson on tho principle of a revolving turret on a shallow raft, and by ita success in tho memorable con? test with the Merrimac effectually revolution? ized the old-fashioned system of maritime warfare. Ericsson, smco tho close ot thc war, has been engaged in experimenting upon the best method of utilizing tho sun's rays so as to become motivo power aud in construct? ing solar engines. He was a man of undoubt? ed versatility of invention and of indomitable perseverance. His genius was recognized by bis election to numerous scientific societies, and lie was a knight of the Swedish order of Vasa. SOUTIIEBX SECURITIES IX WALL-STBF.ET.- .
