Senatorial Daguerreotypes.. [continued.] Mr. J. Wingfield, of Putnam, is a refined, clever, sensible man ; witli a line mind, amiable disposition, and excellent heart ; and yvo defy any one to become acquainted with him, yvithout liking him. He has a clear, intelligent, manly expression of countenance; dark hair, thrown back from a high, broad forehead ; dark expressive eyes, an 1 a face yvltose general contour is fine—broad at tin* top, and tapering gradually down to his chin, lie wears that part of the beard, familiarly and techni cally ’yclept “Presbvtereans,” on the sides of his face. He never makes lengthy speeches, but li - ters his remarks in a manner'that can be under stood ; and yvlien lie concludes. In* takes his seat, without forcing upon the Senate a reiteration < f bis sentiments. lie is one of the most cultivated, i accomplished, best educated men in the body, an l withal, a sociable, warm, pleasant friend and con;- | panion, possessing very ready, agreeable converse- j tional powers. So pleasant a gentleman as Mr. Wing field, could hardly fail to be a favorite with ! the gentler sex. We would say here, par parenthesc, j that we have always been opposed to denominating I the ladies, the *>:.r; for, by doing so, the idea of! sexuality as a classification of man is entirely bio. ted out, and yve are entirely unwilling to tamely ; submit to such a deprivation of one of our inln- j rent rights. We here protest against such a usnr- j pat ion. Mr. W. is a man of liberal, uucontracted j mind, and consequently never makes any Bun I combe, bombastic harangues. An excellent law yer. Judge F. H. Cone, of Greene, is a man who ha ; gained celebrity, not only from being the first leader of the Know Nothing organization in tin i : State, but from leaving introduced during tin* so- j sion of the present General Assembly, a complete, ; thorough revision and remodeling of the grea: system of our State jurisprudence; and hence lie ; must be a man of vigorous mind, lie is vet -v j large, heavy and bulky in form, yvitli a large head, j and a face square or rather parallelogram -ictii. i t caused by a double chin), in which the most j striking feature is his black, full, sparkling eyes, i that beam with the lustre of youth. His hair is j frosted and silvered by age, and usually lies over I his forehead, which is not a high one. He has a j habit of tossing his head obliquely upward, caused i probably by looking up into the gallery just after j speaking, lie lias another habit of speaking j rapidly, allowing bis voice to fall until it seems us if, by a strained effort, the sound comes up from the deepest recesses of bis lungs. His predomi- ; nant mental characteristics we should term good i sense, untiring energy and application, and ainbi- I tion, and altogether, they term a powerful com- i lunation of radical elements of success, and any I man who has tin* good fortune to possess them, • can become distinguished. He is thoroughly versed j in layy- and all its collateral branches-—Government, j political economy, At*., and lie appears to have en- i riched bis mind with everything that could be j gleaned on the subject. He may be called a learn j ed erudite lawyer. He has considerable humor, | and gives some plain manifestations of it very fre- j quently. The Judge is a jovial old man, and loves j a joke as well as any one, and ts ever ready for a laugh. He is sometimes satirical. A. I England and Hit* United States. The Mobile Daily RrgUUr, in publishing the j elegruphie foreign news, brought by the Atlantic „ ind Asia, says : j “ These dispatches are long, and though sora; ! r ivhat interesting, <io not contuin, when they come \ c o he sifted, the startling and world-convulsing in ; t elligence that they were supposed to do. Mr. Ba- t •haiian is certainly in trouble with the British j s foreign Office, and a good deal of excitement in c English commercial circles existed ; yet, till this s nay happen without resulting in the insanity of a i tear between the two countries. We shall have to t lear the boom of the big guns before we can he ieve that the British nation will permit anv Minis rv to plunge it into a war with this country ho my possible interest Great Britain can have in {( Central American affairs. Why, if not a shot were , i red, nor a life lost, one year’s simple lion-inter- j loursc between Southern ports and Great Britain ; t would work wider ruin on British interests, than j 1 could be compensated by the possession of the j whole Central American confederacy which (ion’l. , Walker is trying to create. On a point of honor, , we are aware that John Bull would be as hard- ] ( headed and would rush to ruin with his eyes shut j , as doggedly and furiously as the big-headed ani mal hi- is named after. 1 t “ But there is no point of honor in this case, ( Six rears ago the two Governments settled this . vexed question by treat v. The United States asks I j Great Britain in the politest terms to be pleased to ( stand up to that treaty and surrender her dominion j , in Central America, inconsistent with its stipuln- ! | tions. It is admitted that the President’s message, ( though firm, was civil and conciliatory in its tone, j . It was acceptably received in England. If there is ! , a radical bluuder in the treaty, and if Messrs. < 'lay- , ton and Bn I wer managed to he so very diplomatic as to decive each other, why it were better to drop , it and make a new one, than that the two nations j of the earth who can produce the greatest calami- ; , ties to the world by a war, should go to murdering ' , each other, ravaging each other's coasts and blow- i , ing up eaeli other's ships. \\ edo not believe there , is danger of war. If we should chance to be mis taken in this, whv, of course, “ I nclc Sam will , , be in the right of it. We Jonathans should do | great injustice to our .John Bull lineage if we clid not maintain that , and sl\ow that our young calves, heads are just as hard as our father’s, the Hull. It will be an awful hutting if the two do lock horns, audit is the certain knowledge that the two ani mals have of the pluck, prowess and hard frontal ! hones mntuallv possessed by them, on which we . comfortably hang our confident hopes of peace.” j South t 'aroum Coi.i.rok. -We observe, in the South Carolinian, of Tuesday, allusion to a dilli- , cultv among the students and police of Columbia, j resulting from one of their number being put in j the guard-house, lie was forcibly arrested. The ; ill-feeling thus engendered, as we learn through j private sources, for the papers are silent as the j grave on the subject since its occurrence t manifest- i ed itself in a general rally on Wednesday, of the j students and citizens, armed in regular mob sash j ion for blood \ butchery. The military were called j out by the civil power ; and, after the reading of ! the riot act, and an order for dispersion from the ! Mayor, that functionary demanded military inter position. The order to load was extended to the line of troops, and executed with the rapidity of * disciplined men followed by “make ready”— “ take aim!!” It was <it is said i a dread and solemn moment - but fortunately the persuasive eloquence i i„f Dr. Thot n well. Maxcy Gregg, and Col. It. H.trood wvu, and no rioi.bt others whose names have not i reached us, influenced tne students to retire within : the Campus, and lints averted a tearful calamity. | Bank insubordination is said to exist in the Col legi-, itisnlting from dissatisfaction with the late action of the Trustees, and to the excitement con- ! sequent on this -tutc iT feeling, may the recent outbreak be mainly attributed. Carolina Spartan > /W». 29. New York, Feb ‘26. —' The Corn Exchange this ; morning, rejected the., committees report in fa vor of establishing an inspection nf flour. Much excitement was exhibited and the meeting was quite disorderly. A meeting has been called of those favorable to inspection. Pittsburg, Peb. 25.—Joseph Oliver, a well-known citizen, formerly employed in the Merchant’s Ex change, but recently a deputy sheriff, con.nutted suicide this morning it. a fjt of temporary insanity.

Washington, Feb. 2d.—The Americans of this , citx v;’»3 'ring a salute to-night, in honor ot the nomination of Mr. Fillmore. New York, Feb. 2(s.—The American State Con cil of New York, met at Canandaigua to-day, and adopted resolutions unanimously endorsing the i nominees of the National Convention, : To the Editor of the Constitutionalist: Your correspondent, “Locomotive,’’ very proper ly distinguishes between “ cause and effect” and 1 jet so simple a proposition, one would suppose would be known as a school boy’s lesson. Stand ing by itself it is self-evident, but let us connect it with another, and it assumes a different complex ion. Property of any kind is the result of “en terprise and industry,” hut it must he successful “en terprise and industry.” But all enterprises nor j every industrial effort are successful what is the : result then V I know that you cannot have eggs ! without chickens, and it is as well to bear in ntiud j that it is a bad rule to count the chickens before ; they are hatched. 1 think the last is as true in fact, as the first is true in effect. “Locomotive” hopes I do not belong to that conservative circle, whose appreciation of a three cent piece, is, in my opinion, as fully commendable, as the devil-mav j care feeling, which throws’away a dime because it is not a dollar, and is willing to place in risk, not only all they own, but all they owe, in the hope, only, that, pumpkin vines may produce watermel ons. I belong to neither, but if I hail the power I of placing myself, I would certainly choose the I first class, believing as 1 do, that more stable pros j perity is the result of “ watching and waiting,” i than of shutting your eyes to consequences and j running “a muck” for fortune. And now once j more to my text. Who wants to buy Augusta? Enquire at any j railroad depot. It is one thing to doubt tbe wisdom and sound ■ ness of an individual, another to call his honor and fairness in question. All men are falliablein judg ment; but error i n judgment is not impeachment of honesty of purpose—and in my opposition to the railroad project, 1 am not so blinded as to make the conscience answerable for difference of opin ion. Our judgments, purposes, and opinions are very apt to be swayed bv interest, and we are sometimes governed by our.own interest when we think we are most free from its influence. In re ferrring to the “ Canal,” it was only as an illustra tion of “error of opinion,” and to contrast the difference between theories on paper and practical results. No one gave a heartier support to the “Canal” than myself; and that support was based upon the well argued and well figured statements, which turned wiser beads than mine. But, though disappointed in the promised effects, I have never yet called in question the sincere wishes of those who advocated it, for the prosperity of the citv, nor their true faith in what seemed a measure calcula ted to advance it. lam ten years older now, and may well be allowed to doubt, if, what seemed to be so full of promise has failed, whether an experiment still more costly, with less of probabilities of success, will fulfill the hopes of its advocates, be they ever so desirous of the prosper ity of the city. Will is powerful, but it may fail of working miracles in this ease. I notice the table of receipts by canal, published at the same time with my article. But what do they prove? Only, that in a given time a certain quantity of produce was brought down (lie canal. The question is. how much more have we received, since the canal was built, than was received before, by the river? Os tile twenty thousand bales cotton credited to the canal, for 1855, only six thousand is received from South Carolina. How much more is this amount over the quantity brought down in fall boats before the canal was built ? Tell me that, ami then we can go into a debit and credii of the matter. But this is not the point we are arguing, and I have only digressed to show that even in this point"of view we have paid something “too much for our whistle.” Well, sir, (he canal has been built and paid for or, if not paid for, the bonds of the city are out. which does not, to tax-payers, amount to tin* same thing exactly. But the thing is done, and cannot be remedied. Yet vie can “point a moral” with it, and if the remembrance of that great failure warns us from another, and a greater, it will have done a good thing, for which let us be reasonably thankful. The canal has, however, this to recom mend it all that comes down stops here, helps to (ill our stores and warehouses, gives employment to drays, and adds so much to the business of our Banks, already plethoric with customers, as to en able them to make more than one per cent, a month on exchange, which is a thing greatly to be lauded bv stockholders. This feature, of course, will not be contended for in the contemplated railroad, which is only to receive its freights above us and deliver them below us, not leaving even a sample to tell us the possible amount of good we have done our neighbors by our investment. Charleston, alarmed, cried out “don’t trammel trade with unnecessary expenses,” and forgets the gap between her depot and the point of delivery in the city. Savannah made the same appeal to Macon, equal ly oblivious to the transit duties imposed on pro duce from the distance of her cotton yard to the bay. The same result which is beginning to he felt in Macon will be found to follow here. The big fish will swallow up the little ones. A short time since and Charleston only asked permission to cross the river and establish herself on its South bank, connecting, with a receiving warehouse, on a line wiitt tin* Georgia road. They did not ask to join the Georgia road. Oh, no ! Such a thing was not thought of, or if it wa-.! I believe there was even a contract binding them not to connect in all time to come at least I have heard such a thing (can any body tell me if there was?) Well, the stream was passed an interest equal to four hun dred thousand dollars sacrificed for a paltry con sideration -and now, as we have yielded, so we may continue to yield, ami still, like “ Hu* dangle ter of the horse leech,” the cry will be “give,give.” j Real Estate. ‘-yW A banquet was given by the friends of civil and religious liberty, at the Astor House, New York, in commemoration of the birth-day of Wash ington. It was an interesting occasion. We pub lish the fourth toast, and the remarks of Mr. Brady: A. Warh'tMji<m and hix Prinriple*. -His name, noblest in the annals of Freedom; his principles, pure, enlightened, and liberal—the glory of his na tion —the pride of his people—the beacon of hope to the oppressed in every clime and age. Mr. James T. Brady arose, and in a long and elo quent address, which was listened to with great at tention, and which drew forth frequent and loud applause, vindicated the measures of Washington, as a friend of the impartial and equal distribution of political rights, without regard to birth, to all who adopt our country as theirs, and as the en lightened asserter of religious liberty, lie referred tn the associations and friendships of Washington as a proof of the ground he took, and quoted vari ous passages from his letters and other writings, to show that he made no distinction between the American born abroad and the American born within the United Slates, and that nothing drew from him greater expressions of censure, or strong er ones of disapprobation, than any circumstances which showed a disposition to establish political distinctions between citizens on Recount of their religion. He referred to various acts of Washington, il lustrative of the impartiality of his views in regard to persons of foreign birth. Washington aided in the work of importing Palatines, and even pau pers, to settle Ohio, as may be seen by bis letters to James Tilgliinaii, February, 1774; and in 17A2 he wrote to the Commissioner of the Federal Dis -1 riot, recommending him to send an agent to Ger many to induce emigration from that country. How" does this accord with the Know Nothing ver sion of his acts and policy? In his letter to Bene dict Arnold, in 1775, when about to invade Canada, he stronglv urges him to respect the religion of that country, and to protect and support the free exercise of it, and the undisturbed enjoyment of Hie rights of conscience by the people, to the full extent of his authority. This he also embodied in an address to the .people of Canada, in which he savs: “The cause of America and of liberty is the cause of every American citizen, whatever tnay he j i,isi religion or descent.” The Know Nothings j quote: “Put none but Americans on guard to : night.” Would not Thomas Addis Emmet or Richard Montgomery have been safe Americans to place on guard’ the night before that eventful day on which West Point was to have been betrayed to the Brit ish y He continued : I discover no instance during the whole revolutionary struggle in which the place of nativity or religious sentiments ol those who took part in that momentous undertaking were ever investigated to determine their merit or fidelity. Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, who sign ! ed the Declaration of Independence, was a Catho lic Many of those who, with him, subscribed that instrument, were natives of foreign lands. I Among the officers who assisted in achieving our independence, we ail delight to honor La Fayette, DeKalb, Steuben, Gates, Lee, Mont gomery and D’Estaing. Washington,in li8!t, re sponding to an address from the Baptist church in Virginia, utters this memorable language: “ If 1 could have entertained the slightest appre hension that the Constitution framed in the Con vention where 1 had the honor to preside, might possibly endanger the religious rights of any ec clesiastical society, certainly I would never have placed my signature to it. And if I could now conceive that the General Government might ever he no administered as to render the liberty of con science insecure, . I you will be persuaded that no ope would be more zealous ihqn myself to establish effectual barriers against the horrors of spiritual tyranny, and every species of religious persecution. For you doubtless remember that l have often ex] r.'ssed toy sentiments llmt every 1 man conducting himself as a good citizen, and be ing accountable to God alone, for bis religious opinions, ought to be protected in worshiping the Deity according to the dictates of his own con science.” No viler slander has been uttered against Wash ington than that his Farewell Addresss admonish- ! ed his country against foreigners. The most limit i |'d intelligence plainly perceives that the “foreicm | influence which he assails, is that of European i he could not have been speaking of I individuals, is evident fromjthe fact that, in conTnr mg all within our territory to struggle for its pros j peri tv, he uses this language : Citizens by birth or choice of a common coun tn that country has a right to concentrate vour | atlections. The name of American, which belongs to vour natioual capacity, must always exalt the ju>l pride of patriotism more than any appellation drawn from local discriminations.” j Mr. Brady read a letter from Washington in j reply to an address from the Israelites of New i POit, H- I; flawed August 17, 1790, which had nev | er before been made public, in which he expresses i in the strongest and most emphatic terms, his üb -5 horrence of civil and religious oppression and in -1 tolerance. His sentiments were the sentiments of | those who had met to honor the Uav of his birth, and for their preservation he doubted not each ami j all of them were ready to make every sacrifice. | Mr. Brady sat down in the midst of a tumult of i applause. In another column will be found an advertise- ■ 1 incnt, exhibiting the vagaries of fortune in a re markable degree. There will be found a notice of no less than ten prizes, of from sl,ooo to *l2 000 1 each, which have all been offered, and some of \ which have been sold to our citizens within the i last month. The fickleness of the goddess, as > shown in the fact that these prizes have come like a Hood after a drouth of several months. The statements are plain and business-like, and entire ly in keeping with the plain, respectable, unassum ing management which characterises the firm. Messrs. Gregory A Mai itr are the contractors fer tile Green and Pulaski Monument Lottery, and are uow engaged in raising the funds for the monu ment to Gen. Greene, in which we hope they will be successful as they were in procuring the en tire sum witli which tho Commissioners have re cently erected the beautiful Pulaski monument in Monterey Square.

JONfiS A CO., 210 Broad-st. Theatrical Blunders. -They are having a run of very bad luck at the Broadway Theatre. Night i before'last, a horse leaping aclia'sm of twelve feet j width, as is required in the spectacle of “Hern the Hunter,” did his dutv, but found no bridge to fetch j him up properly, and so tumbled over, rolling his I rider under hurt. Last night matters were still i worse. The curtain was down very often where | dropping the curtain was not very desirable. Anne | Bolevn’s grand entry upon the stage was arrested by crashing of the platform over which her chariot and .six horses were to pass—two of the horses i dropped in the cellar. In the tilting scene, a splendid horse, rode by Sylvestre, came full tilt to ! the foot lights, and,'not meeting the expected ! check from his opponent, pitched over them and I fell upon the sharp iron spikes of the railing that I separated the parquette from the orchestra. The I poor brute was raised in great agony and borne oft' ! behind the scenes. The rider was not seriously in : jured, nor any of the audience, though some of those in the parquette were terribly frightened. Other accidents were not wanting; some ol - them, however, rather contributed to than detracted from i the little amusement of the evening.— N. Y. Times. ! Found Dead. —-Oliver Stroud, a resident of Wal- I ton county, was found dead in Monroe last Thurs [ day morning.
