HORTICILTIIUL
MAGIC.
(Delivered from the steps of the Capitol in Washington,
March 4, 1865, on the occasion of his second inauguration as
President of the United States.) . . . ,
Fellow Countrymen: At this second appearing to take
the oath of the Presidential of f ice, there is less evasion for
an extended address than there was at the first, lnena
statement; somewhat in detail, of a course to be pursued,
seemed fitting and proper. Now, at the expiration of four
years, during which public declarations have been constant
ly called forth on every point and phase of the great contest,
which still absorbs the attention and engrosses the energies
of the nation, little that is new could be presented. The pro
gres sof our arms, on which all else chiefly depends, is as
well known to the public as to myself; and it is,' I trust, reas
onably satisfactory and encouraging to all. Vith high hope
rv.1. iho future nn nrpdiction in resrard to it is ventured.
On the occasion corresponding to this four years ago all
thoughts were anxiously directed ta an impending civil war.
All dreaded it all sought to avert it. While the inaugural
.address was being delivered from this place, devoted alto-
getner to saving ine umu wmwui
were in the city seeking to destroy it without war seeking to
dissolve the Union, and divide effects, by negotiation. Both
parties deprecated war; but one of them would make war
rather than let the nation survive; and the other would ac
cept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.
One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves,
. . . i ji ii it., t t u... 1 t i
not aistriDUtea generally over ine uiuuu, uut lutaiuieu m me
Southern part of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar and
powerful interest. All knew that this interest was, some
.how, the cause of the war. To strengthen, perpetuate, and
extend this interest was the object for which insurgents
would rend the Union, even by war; while the government
claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial
enlargement of it.
Neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the
duration which it has already attained. Neither anticipated
that the cause of the conflict might cease with, or even be
fore, the conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an
t 'easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astound
ing, ' Both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God;
and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem
'strange that any" men should dare to ask a just God's as
sistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other
men's faces; but let us judge not, that we be not judged.
"The prayers of both could not be answered that of neither
lias been answered fully.
, The Almighty has His own purposes. "Woe unto the
world because of offenses ! for it must needs be that offenses
come J but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh."
If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those of
fenses which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but
which, having continued through His appointed time, He now
wills to remove, and that. He gives to both North and South
this terrible war, as the woe due to those by whom the of
fense! came, shall we discern therein any departure from those
divine attributes which the believers, in a living God always
ascribe to Him? Fondly do we hope fervently do we pray
that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away.
Ygt, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled
by the bondman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited
toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with
the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as
was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said,
"The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous alto
gether." With malice toward 'none; with charity for all; with
. firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us
strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the na
tion's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the bat
tle, and for his widow and hi3 orphan to do all which may
achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves
and with all nations.

California is still content with

prunes bred in royal purple, with
the tart-sweetness and the taste
that lingers and is health giving

going ahead improving on her im

And while the loganbeiry was

The cheerful ginks who were
after that scalp lacked two of
mustering a baker's dozen out of
a possible 60 votes to assist them
in the war dance of victory.
m
This rerves as a good lesson
for fcueh ginks in the tuture. They
should pick cn some one whose
armor is vulnerable; who is not
an honest and straightforward
rervant of the pople.
The idea of putting In a box

j Where are they going to get the
logs?
Ther I nothing that is suit
able hereabouts excepting spruce
or hemlock. Who owns the
spruce and hemlock timber on
this side of the Coast range? One
or two big logging and mill com
panies and they ars themselves
making boxes from the log.
m . -
Small chance the tate would
have of getting any of these. logs
a; a price that would make the In
dustry pay expenses.
Ther? i. one solution, however.
It is this: Let the state build an
airplane big enough to carry
spruce logs from the coast tim
ber. That would turn the trick.
Railroad- freights are prohibitive.
It would have to be a big air
plane, however, for ths logs are
five to ten feet through, and
there are only three or four saw
mills Ut Oregon big enough to
handl them. But the airplane
proposition is not a bit less fan
tastic than the rest of the scheme.
