Cui:r. & Enq. OF THE IMIE-II'ENT OF THE I. STATES, rOL'KTII OF MARCH, .Fc How Cit i:e n s : The will of ihe American people, ex pressed through (heir unsolicited stitirages, calls me before you to pass through the solemnities preparatory to taking up on myself the duties of President ol t tie United States for another term. For their approbation of my public conduct, through a period which baa not lu-en without its difficulties, and for this renewed expression of their cootidenee in my good intentions, I am at a loss for term adequate to the expression of my grati tude. It shall be displayed, to the ex tent of my humble abilities, in continued efforts so to administer the government, as to preserve their liberty and promote their happintss. S.i many eveat have occurred within the last four years, which have necessaij!y called forth, sometimes under circumstances the most delicate ant! pain fol, my views of the principles and policy which ought to be pursued by the gener al government, that I need, on this occaion. but allude to a few leading consi derations, connected with some of them. The loreign policy adopted by our go. vernrncnt soon after the formation of our present constitution; and very generally pursued by successive administration, has been crowned with almost cotnpleU euccess, and ha elevated our character among the nations of the earth. To do justice to all, and submit to wrong from Done, h i been, during my administra tion, its governing maxim, and so happy have been its result-,, that we are not ou Jy at eace with all the world, but have lew cau-es of .-ont ro ersv, nd those of minor irnpoitance, remaining unadjusted. In the domestic, policy of this govern ment, there are two objects which espet ially deserve the attention of the people and their representatives, and whkh have been, and will continue to be, the subjects of my increasing solicitude. They are the preservation of the rights of the several States, and the integrity of the Union. These great objects are neces-arily connected, and can only be obtained by an enlightened exercise of the pow ers of each within its appropriate sphere, in oonformitv with the public will constitu lionally expressed. To this end, it be comes the duty of all to yield a ready and patriotic submisshn ti the laws con stitutionally enacted, and thereby pro mote and strengthen a proper confidence in those institution of the several States and of the United States which the peopi them'elve have ordained far their wn government. My experience in public coocerns, and he observation of a lite somewkat advanced, con turn the opinion leng since imbibed by me, that the destruction of our state governments, or the annihilation of their control over the local coneros of the people, would lead directly to revolution and anarchy, and finally to iepotisin and millitary dominion n proportion, therefore, as the general go vernment encroaches unon the rigkts nfj the sintes, in the same proportion dots it impair its own power and detract from its ability to fulfil the purposes of its ere ation. Solemnly impressed with these considerations, my country men will ever find me ready to exercise my constitution al powers in arresting measures which may directly or indirectly encroach up on the rights of the states, or tend to con soli date all political power in the geue ?al government. But of equal, and in deed of incalculable importance is the Union of these sta'es, and the sacred du ty of all to contribute to its preservation ly a liberal support of the general government in the exercise of it just pow. ars. You have been wisely admonished to "accustom yourselves to think and speak of the Union as of the palladium of your political safety and prosperity, vatching for its pieservation with jeal ous anxiety, discountenancing whatever nuy suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event bt abandoned, and indignantly frowning upon the first dawn iog of any attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the ret, or to enfeeble tbs sacred ties which now link together the various parts.1' Without iioi? our independence and liberty would uever have been achieved without union they never can be maintained. Divided into tw enty four, or even a smaller number of separate communities, we
shall see our internal trade burdened : aud its prornptoesa to piotecl our citizens with nuaiberless lestraiots ami exactiom ; wheiever they may be.

The loss of bberty, of all good government, of peace. plenty, and happir,e, must inevitably follow a dissolution of the Union In sup porting it, therefore, we support all that is dear to the freeman and the philan thropist. The time at which I stand before you is full of interest. The eyes of all na tions are fixed on our republic. The e vent of the existing criis will be dect ive in the opinion of mankind of the practicability of our federal system of government. Great is the stake pi tceii in our hands: great is the respoisit'ilty which mut re.-t upon the people of the United Stales. Let us realize the no portance of the attitude in which we tand before the wot Id. Let us extricate our country from the danger which sur round it, and learn wisdom from the Irs sons they inculcate. Deeply impressed with the truth of these obsi rvation, and under the oldiga tion of that solemn oath w hich I am a bout to lake, I .ha!l continue to exr: ;ii my faculties to mam am the just p weiot the Constitution, and to iran-unt to pwsleiity the blessings of our t'e ieirl Uo ion. At the same time, it will e c; aim to inculcate, by my tli' i-tl act", the necessity of exercising, by the genera' government, those powers only ih-t .nt clearly delegated ; to encourage impii city and economy in the expeooitures oi the goTernment, to raie no moie money fiorn the people than may be rrqui site for these oljeits, and in a manner that will best promote the interest of ali classes of the community, and of all por lions of the union.

TI'OUllLLS OF UNCLE SA3I.
Oh ! list v gentles, white and black Jack Peter, Susan Dinali - J ',,r Uncle bam has got a acrane Willi sister Carolina. This lady waxed monstrous wroth ; The reason none could tell, But, judging from her tongue, 'twas tho't She must be quite unwell. nd so the doctors were called in, To show their skill so true ; nd, mire enough, they quickly shewd What business they could do. For soon with drugs thev did berrin I o vomit purge and cup, The v gave her bark, I hey gae her pills, At lust they gavb tic i. up. Then uncle Sam was sorely vexed He muttered forth a curse T called you in to make her well, You've only made her worse." nd Carolina's anger, too, II id almost made her ch ke ; It turned to fire, i! turned to fj ime, And then it turned to smoke. And still of Cotton she would talk At morning noon, and night ; To see her cry, and swoon and kick, It was a doleful si ht. But when soms days ere pas-ed away, It seemed to Uncle Sim That "ill this fuss was n hoax, Her fainting but a sham. So out he pulls, his smoking pipe, Like some good natured fellow, And told her if 8he did not slop He'd lock her in the cellar. Thus Uncle Sam is sore perplexed, But patience is his motto ; Patience, which teaches wiser truths Than Tully, Hu . e, or Uotta. Sou'h Carolina may now dispose of her military stores and munition of war; but who-is to pay for heating" the po ker?"'

Prom the Old Colony Press. Kissihg. We learn frui a Wiern paper, that a young gentleman fiom JN. York has been fined $21 and costs for kissug the wife of a mau wilh whom he boarded. The suit was brought by the husband for the recovery of damages, some part of which were sustained more than a year ago, by the testimony of the Iciasee, that the offence lias been repeated eight or nine times, within a few month-, making the price of the smads about .j each. So, young men, take warning. Be cautious in all thiugs; but be especially careful how you kiss otkor people's wives. We dont think that the above is a very cxhorbitait rate, if the western dam sels are uny thing like out yankee ones. It should have staled how long the ki!-es weie. Byron says the length is the only way to determine the valu? cf a k.ss. For example r
"A long long kiss a kiss of youth ao 1 src." Is assuredly worth more than three dollars. Shakespere al-o ha a line ;a which the beauty of these ieiici'ai- kisses is well expressed: -'A kiss
