PRESIDENT CLEVELAND'S ADDRESS.
Washington, March o. Mr Grover Cleveland was installed as President of the United States yesterday. His inaugural address insists on the vital importance, of a sound and staple cureucy and hopes that prudent legislation will remedy the present difficulties. Meanwhile the Executive will use all its powers to maintain the national credit and avert disaster. The President deprecates the payment of bounties and subsidies and the reckless waste of millions in pensions, which are the bane of Republican institutions. The wrongs inflicted by the McKinley tariff must be rectified, though the work must be undertaken wisely and without vindictiveness. President Cleveland also hints that his Government will grapple with the commercial rings aud corners inimical to the welfare of the people. The address does not refer to the Hawaiiau question. There were 300,000 people present at the ceremony, which took place amid a scene of remarkable enthusiasm. No extra session of Congress will be held.
