Ordered, That, the daily hour of meeting shall be .
Id m.
Ordered, That when the Senate adjourn it ad
journ to meet on Monday.
And then, on motion, the Senate adjourned.
Incidents of the Inauguration.
We take the following paragraphs from the
detailed accounts oftheinauguration, in the New
York Herald of Saturday :
Gen. Pierce delivered his inaugural address,
after taking off his overcoat, amid immense
cheering, just exactly as if he were delivering an
tempore speech. He had no paperor notes, but
delivered the address beautifully and gracefully,
without a blemish, to the end. It will he remem
bered that Presidents Taylor, Polk, and others,
read their addresses from the manuscript. When
he came to that part of his address which rela
ted to the protection of American citizens abroad
ho turned face to face with Mr. Fillmore and
the diplomatic corps, nttd laid down the law
with thrilling emphasis, and when he again tut ti
ed to tho mass of the people in front, occupying
the vast square, below, they shouted with de
light, and every man of the fifty thousand in the
streets declared that Pierce is the man for the
times.
President Pierce is a graceful and striking
speaker, and his voice, although not equal to
reach to the extent of the enormous multitude
that surrounded him, was clear and distinct, and
his style of delivery was excellent. He lias ap
peared remarkablyelastic cool and self-possessed
for the last few days, hut especially to-day.—
He rose at daylight and has been busy the en
tire day, and he evidently feels that he has the
game in hand and intends to hold it.
Mr. Fillmore’s cabinet made the best of their
time to the last moment. For weeks past they
have been filling offices with bogus democrats,
appointed at the solicitation of whigs who re
signed. Even as late as yesterday a post-mas
ter in the State of New York was appointed in
this way. The whole matter will be thoroughly
investigated.
A company of fantasticals, dressed in rags
and tatters, inarched along the avenue whilst the
procession was passing, who received some
rough usage.
The pageant is over and the multitude is dis
parsing. This is a revolution of the govern
ment in a carnival.
Large masses followed the President to the
White House, and waited upon him in the usu
al reception room.
Mr. Fillmore took immediate possession of
the apartments at Willard’s just vacated by
General Pierce, intending to occupy them for a
few days prior to the commencement of his
Southern tour.
Snow continued falling slightly during the
day, melting as it fell, and not particularly in
terfering with the inaugural ceremonies.
This evening several balls and otherentertain
ments are given to the military and other
guests.
The hotels and boardinghouses, though some
what relieved, are still thronged.
It is reported that after the inaugural Gener
al Scott thanked the President for iiis remarks on
West Point and the army.
After having’ received a host of people at the
White House, General Pierce retired, and the
doors closed. Ex-President Fillmore took up
his quarters at three o’clock in the rooms at
Willard’s, vacated by his successor two hours
previously. A few friends dined with General
Pierce at the White House, but Mr. Fillmore,
consulting the General’s repose, declined. They
will dine together perhaps to-morrow.
The White House is closed to-night to all
visitros. Its new occupant has made a mighty
sensation to-day.
At eight o’clock the storm continued, and the
army of incursion was leaving by thousands. I ire

Tlie South Carolina BridSe across the .Savan
nah River to Augusta.
We arc trulv gratified to learn says the Charleston
Courier March 7, that this work is now on the point of
completion. The bridge itself, we are informed, is finish
ed with the exception of laying the iron upon the track on
tile Bridge—which is more than three quarter accom
plished—and some other light work. Both depots are
already finished, and the track leading from the old road
on the Hamburg side to the Bridge is completely ironed.
The track, also, on the Augusta side through Washing
ton street from the through depot to the corner of Rey
nold street, is ready for the iron, which will be laid as soon
as the tr ick across the Bridge connects with that point—
a distance of some six hundred feet —and the iron can be
transported over it.
The trainsare expected to pass over tlm river in about
sixty days.
Wilkks Kailuoad.—At last we :m* gratified
to he enabled to announce that the contractor
for laying the superstructure of our road is at
his post with an effective force, and that he will
proceed with the work with the least possible
delay. Long have we waited for this consum
mation of our hopes, and now they are about to
he realized. We confidently expect its comple
tion by the last of June, or first July, perhaps
at an earlier day. —Gazette
FOR THE TIMES AND SENTINEL.
To the Democrats of tfuscogee County.
Wo do hereby certify, that tho so called meeting,
of the* Pierce and King party, said to have been held
in ihis city on the 7' h inst., was composed of only

1 lie objects and purposes of the meeting were at
no time publicly made known previous to the open
ing of the meeting.
The proceedings and expressions of said meeting
in no respect meet the approbation of this commu
nity, or any considerable portion of the Democratic
Party.
Each of the individuals named, to wit, Robert
C. Forsyth, Mansfield Torreace and Wiley
E. Jones, were nominated by an
to be unfriendly to the claims of all these gentle
men for Post Master.
Neither of the subscribers who were present at
said meeting, voted, or took an\ active part in the

Democratic Meeting.
Agreeably to previous notice given, and in accordance
with the Constitution of the Pierce & King Club of Mus
eogte-county, said Club met at the Court House on the
♦•. veiling of the 7th of March.
The President having taken his seat, Francis M. Brooks,
Esq. was requested to act as Secretary. The object of
the Club being called together was then explained hy the
President, whiek was to dissolve the same.
The lion. A. C. Morton then arose and made a few
appropiiate remarks, respecting the harmony which had
been evinced by the Club since its organization, and the
happy results which had grown out of it, in uniting the
different wings or factions of the Democratic Party in said
county, and hoping in our future efforts, the same harmo
ny might prevail.
Francis M. Brooks then offered the following in solu
tions, which were unanimously adopted :
Whereas, By the Constitution of this Club, and the
regulations which have controlled its actions since its or*
ganization, its dissolution should take place when infor
mation should be received of the Inauguration of FRANK
LIN PIERCE ts. the Presidency of the United States,
where the nearly unanimous voice of the country has
placed him. And whereas,information has been received,
and the fact is matter of history, that the choice of the
Democracy of the nation is its head for the next four years.
Therefore, Resolved, That the objects contemplated
by the formation of this Club have been accomplished.
Resolved, That the Club by its regulations, and the
vote of its members, is now adjourned, sine die.
Resolved, further, That the establishment of this Club
has resulted in the restoration of harmony in the Demo
cratic Party of this section, torn and distracted by difficul
ties resulting from a difference of opinion upon the sec
tional questions which lately agitated the country. The
Democracy of Muscogee are now a unit, prepared to en
ter upon tbe canvasses before them, with the like spirit
which characterized their action in the contest just passed.
Associations for the promotion of a good object are the
surest guarantees of its success.
Be it resolved, then, That we are still united, and un*
der the same officers and regulations, resolve ourselves
into tbe Democratic Association of Muscogee for the pre
servation of the principles and integrity of the party.
Resolved further, That for the safety of our party,
present and future, such persons should alone become the
objects of Executive favor, wh oeombine the requisite qual
ifications of honesty, capacity and worthiness, and whose
selection would meet with the approbation of this Asso
ciation, and the public generally.
Resolved, That having no trusty official at the seat of
Government to represent the interests of the Democracy
of this section, that we will designate by vote, the person
esteemed by this Association most worthy of Executive
patronage.
After the adoption of the foregoing resolutions, Mr.
David J. Barber submitted the following resolutions, which j
were adopted:
Whereas, The office of Post Master in this city is the
only office of importance in the county of Muscogee in the
gift of President Pierce. And, whereas, it has ever been,
and we believe should ever be, the oherished doctrine of j
the Democratic Party, “that the expressed will of the j
people must not be disregarded.”
Therefore, be it resolved, That we no a select by ballot j
a competent person for Post Mils ter of this city.
Hoolved. That the name of the person so selected,shall
be forwarded to our Chief Magistrate, with a just and fair !
representation of his honesty and capacity, and signed by !
the Secretary of this Association.
lu accordance with tin* above resolution, the Associa
tion proceeded to ballot. The names of II C. Forsyth,
M. Torrance, Wiley E. Jones, and M.N. Clarke, hav
ing been announced by their respective friends as eandi- j
dates, and upon counting the same, it appeared that M. j
N. Clarke had received a majority of all the votes cast,
and was then declared the choice of the Association,
The Hon. A. C. Morton then submitted for enrollment
as a member of this Association the name of the lion.
Alfred Iverson. Also, that the name of Dr, Alexander
J. Robison ,of the city of Columbus, and Pryor Dozier,
Esq., of the esunty of Muscogee, be added to tho list of
the Vice Presidents of this Association.
Mr. David J. Barber then introduced ihe following
resolution which was adopted :
Resolved, That the Times dc Sentinel, of Columbus,
Federal Union of Milledgeville, and all the Democratic
papers throughout this congressional district, be r< quested
to publish the proceedings of this meeting.
On motion, tho Association adjourned, subject to the I
cal! f the President.

OBITUARY.
Died, in (iiiscity, on Sunday night, 6th inst., William Alkx
andkr, oldest son of the late Hon. Robert B. Alexander, in the
thirteenth year ot his age, after a painful illness of only a few
hours. His death was occasioned by an accidental injuiy inflict
ed upon the eve by a wire thrown in sport by a playmate.
William was a boy ofbright intellect, encaging manner-, and
swoet disposition—the stay of his widowed mother, and the fa
vorite of n large circle of relatives and friends.
While we bow with submission to the will of Providence in the
certain assurance, that this budding flower has been transplant
ed to the Garden of God, we can but mourn over bis untimely
death, by which his home has been desolated, and a bright fu
ture overcast.
God, who is the Friond of the Widow, and the Father ot tho
Fatherless, tempers his judgments with mercy, and will overrule
nis dark providences to the future good of those whom he so
severely afflicts. He heareth the young ravens when they cry,
and will not forget his children in their afflictions.
In Auburn, California, on the 271 h of January last, after a lin

rpillS machine is acknowledged, by all who have ut-ed it, to be
I superior to that of any other Sewing Machine ever invent
ed, for its simplicity, compactness, the beauty and strength of its
stitch and its cheapness. It weighs about 25 lbs., and costs only
from §25 to §3O. It will work, neatly with the smallest thread,
the finest muslin, cambric or silk, as well as linen, woolen and
cotton goods, and all kinds of leather. It is so simple, that a
child of 10 years of age can understand and work It rapidly, with ■
out any danger of its getting out of order, and can do the w ork
of more than 20 se unstresses much better in every respect than
it can be done by hand. The stitches arc independent of eacli
other—so much so, that if every other stitch is cut, the seam still
holds good and strong. It h unlike and much better than any
other sewing machine ever invented. This machine is peculiar
ly adapted to family and plantation use, as it does all kinds ol
sewing, and when known will be generally introduced into fami
lies and plantations.
The Avery Hewing Machine Company have perfected their ar
rangements lor manufacturing on the largest scale, and will sup
ply any number of machine? at the shortest notice. Orders ad
dressed to CHARLES NETTLETON, 25! Broadway, New York,

TMI E season is last approaching when this valuable manure
should be used. The experience of those who have used it
proves, (if we believe their agricultural essays, which we do not
doubt) that even the cotton plauter is doubly, and sometimes
trebly paid by its application.
De..E. T. Taylor’s experiment applied to pine lands near Col
umbus, on corn and peas, proves that it much more than doubly
paid him Gardens are greatly benefited by it, producing vege
tables in abundance’, and leaving the ground much benefited for

county—February Term, 1853.
rpHE Grand Jurors chosen and sworn for the present
-L term, to wit: Panel No. 1, beg leave to make the fol
lowing presentments. We have, through committee, exam
ined the Clerk's Books ot the Superior and Inferior Courts
and find them neatly and correctly kept; also the report ol
the county Treasurer, which we give below :
Amount of money on ha: and 28th Aug. 1852, 8240 64

Amount paid out deducted 1630 64
In hands of the Treasurer, 1002 11
Attorney’s receipts for collection of two notes, 473 32
One note in hand, 6 66
We have also examined by committee the county Jail
and find it in good order, except one corner board misplac
ed, and the dungeon door is wanting a good pad lock and
some fixture o keep it from shutting too low', which we
recommend the interior Court to have attended to; also,
by committee,, examined the Ordinarys report in the capaci
ty of poor school commissioner, and find he has returned
by deputy commissioners from each district, the amount
aggregate of poor children four hundred and len. He has
received as poor school fund up to the. Ist Jan
uary, 185:1, 8466 52
Deduct commissions, 23 32
Which leaves 433 20
He has accounts filed hy county teachers which exceed
the amount of funds in hand hy a small amount. We, there
fore. recommend the Interior Court to levy five per cent,
upon the State tax for school purposes.
Wo find a portion ot our roads In bad order; therefore,
request the proper authoiities to have them immediately re
paired.
Wo also recommend the Inferior Court to have abridge
kept up across Kinchafoona on the road from Buena Vista
to Pineville. ......
We regret to he subjected to tne necessity ot noticing m
this our general presentment an editorial which appeared
in the last Vadernecum, a little sheet published in Buena
Vista, w hich says, in alluding to the action of the Grand
Jury upon special presentments lor gambling, that almost
every man in town is presented for playing at some game,
many of them upon such simple charges us playing whist
for cigars,oyster suppers, &c., On ordinary occasions we
would pass hy such an insinuation with silent contempt; a 1
least we would consider the source from w-heneeit came, as
the nigger said when the Jack A. < kicked him ; but as tire
artielcTalluded to carries falsehood so palpably upon its
face, we deem it nee; ary in exculpating ourselves from
the charge to give it the lie. It is an okt saying that the
flesh bums where the shoe pinches, and we suspect the said
Editor has beeri caged by the Tiger himself, and if we
could get evidence of thut fact, we would even condescend
to present him, and consider that we would be doing our
duty, us we sincerely telieve we have done in all our pre
sentments upon the subject alluded to by the said suspicious
editor of the said picayune paper.
In taking leave of his Honor Judge Iverson, we tender
him our acknowledgments for the able and efficient man
ner in which he has discharged his official duties during tho
present term ; also we tender our thanks to the Solicitor
J ck Brown for iiis polite and courteous attention to this
body.
Wo request these our presentments to be published in the

be unable to make payment at the time my notes and debts fell
due, but if my health permits me, I have yet got that energetic
and persevering disposition, that I will w ork out in a short time,
and no man shall lose any thing that is just, by me.
