FELLOW CITIZENS :-Wlthout solicitation on my part, have been chosen by the free and voluntary suffages of my countfymen to the most honorable and most responsible of fee on earth, am deeply impressed with gratitude for the confidence reposed in me- Honored wifh this distinguished coasidera- ton at an earlier perlod of life than any of my predecessors, l cannot disguise the difidence with which am about 10 enter on the discharge of my official duties

 If the aged and more experienced men who have filled the office Of President of the Uni- ted States, even in the infancy of the Repuh- lie, distrusted their ability to discharge the duties of that exalted station, what ought not to be the apprehe6sions of one so much younger and less endowed, now that our do- main extends from ocean to ocean, that our people have so greatly increased in numbers, and al a time when so great diversity of opin- ion prevails in regards to the principles and policy which should characerlze the admin stration ot our Government We'll may the boldest fear, and the Wisest tremble. when in- curing responsibilities on which may depend our eouatfy's peace and prosperity, and, in some degree, the hopes and happiness of the whole human family.

 In assuming responsibilities so vast, 1 fer vendy invoke the aid of that Almighty Ruler of the Universe, in whose hands are the des- tines ol nations and of men, to guard this heaven-favofed land against the misehefS which, withouthi guidance, mightarisc from an unwise public policy. With firm reli- ance upon the wisdom of Omnipotence to sustain and direct me in the path of duty which l am appointed to pursue, stand in the presence of this assembled multitude of my countrymen, to take opon myself the so- ema obligation. ito the best of my ability 10 preserve, protect. and defend the constitution of the United States.n

 concise enumeration of the principles which will guide me in the administrative policy of the government, is not only in ac- eordance with the examples set me by all nay predecessors, but is eminehtly beGtlng the oeeasion

 Tie constitution itself, plainly written as il is, the safeguard of our federative compact. the offspring of concession and compromise, binding together in the bonds of peace and union this great and increasing family of free and independent States will be the chart by which shall he directed.

 Ii will be my first care to administer the gov emmeni in the true spirit of that instrument, and to assume no powers not expressly grant, eA. or clearly implied in it's terms. The government of the United States Is one of delegated and limited powers and nis bv d strict adherence to the clearly granted pow CTS, and hy absiaining from the exercise of doubtful or nnathofl1ed implied powers, that we have the only sure guaranty against the recurrence of those unfortunate collisions between the Federal and State authorities. which have occasionally so much disturbed the harmony of our system. and even threat ened the perpelultv el oar glorious Union,
