 ! orlS, under the command of Captain Castle and followed by the various associations oi the District of Columbia, becorporate autho- rites of the District, and the professors and students of the Georgetown College Inter- spersed at equal distances were three or four bands of music, which played during the pto- cession. Arriving at the Capitol, the Presi- dent elect, Judges of the Supreme Court, and members of Congress, entered the Capitol, and were received in the Senate Chamber by the Senate, while the procession, having marched round by the north side of the square. entered the enclosure at the cast gate, and formed iii a dense column in front of the east poriico, where the ceremony was 10 lake place. Tn a few moments, the President elect, attended by the Supreme Court, the Senate, and mem- bers of Congress, appeared in the porlico, and was hailed with the firing of cannon, and the most enthusiastic cheering from the assembled multitude. Having delivered his inaugural address in 9 voice so firm and diq- tinct, as to be heard by almost every indiyid- ual present. the oath of office was admins tered 10 him by Chief Justice Fancy, in the manner prescribed by the constitution This event was announced by the discharge of cannon, and the hearty, dealening shouts of the multitude, and the procession was again formed in the same order as at the commence ment, and escorted the new President 10 the Presidential Mansion, where il was dismissed

 Notwithstanding the disagreeabIeness of the weather, Git having commenced raining by the time the procession was formed, and continued so the whole day, there never has been on any occasion a larger concourse of people inthe city of Washington. Thestfeets and paYements for the whole line were dense- ly crowded with mass of human beings, old and young, male and female, all seem- ugly happy in witnessing the inauguration of the peoples President

 During the procession, the wide Pennsyl- Vania avenue, which is about a mile and a half in length, was filled with the current of people; and all the porticos and terraces of public buildings, and the windows and porehts oi the priyatehouscs, were crowded to excess.

 

 Mss DELLA A. WEBsrER-Gov. 0wslev nardoned this she negro stealer on Monday last, and, together with heraher, she imme- diately left this State for Vermont, her place of formerresidencc. Wehardlv know wheih. CT to praise the Governor for this act of clemency, which has unquestonablv been the result rather of the solicitations ofothers than his own feelings. From facts which have recently come to our knowledge, there IS little doubt that the offence of which she was convicted, was not the first of it's kind, and that she had been engaged in other places in sowing disaflection among the slaves and aiding in their escape. That she was the master spirit in the affair for which both her self and Fairbanll were convicted. no one could doubt who knew them She had evi- dently fitst seduced the slaves from their f. deity, procured their assent to attempt an es- cape, and then written to her abolition friends in Ohio for a tool to aid her in the comple- ton of herschemes. The agent selected had just sense enough to do as he was bid, and ianaticism enough to make him a willing in- strument

 It may be urged that all the ends of justice had been obtained by her conviction and im- prisonment, but we think otherwise Among the abolitionists she will be regarded as a mar tyr, and her conviction will confer honor in- stead ol disgrace. Such being the fact, the punishment imposed by our laws for crimes oi that particular class, is the only thing that can be relied upon for deterring others from the commission ofsimilar offences But even the terror of this will be lost, if merely nominal confinement in our penitentiary is all that IS to ensue, and the executive mercy sets aside the judgment of the courts wherev- CT the offender happens to be woman.

 We know that some inconveniences might have arisen from her detention, from the fact of there being no female wards in the peni- tentiary. But this might have been readily, and at small expense, provided for, by con- structlng the national buildings And, in our opinion, it would have been better to incur the additional expense than to have freed this iemale mcendlary, and turned her loose to prey again upon the properly and rights of our ciiizens.--Leringfoa (Ky) Ga:eHe.

 HE INCREASE OF FoPULATIoN.-FeW are aware how rapidly the human family are aug menlng their numbers, even in the largest cities on the globe. It is stated, in recent report to the British government, :. that in little more than l2 years, 1900 new streets have been added to London.n On these new streets 4S,000 houses have been erected, most of them on large scale.

 London Is now about 10 miles in circum- ference, and contains more than two millions of inhabitants This wonderful increase of population within the last twelve years is mainly to the numerous railways which center in that great metropolis, giving to It and carrying away again daily, it is said, tre ttmeS as many people as visited it fifteen years ago.

 There never was a time when human beings were multiplying so rapidly in Great Britain and Ireland as Is now taking place ill that
