A Very I*retty Incident. Wo find the following incident in the San Francisco Whig. Colonel. F. H. Sanford, to whom it refers, reached our city a few days ago, in good health. He has been absent in California for four years, and though still accoutered in the dress which gave him, at the mines, the sobriquet of the “Blue Shirt of the Mountains/’ he presents a familiar appearance to his old acquaintances. We con gratulate him on his safe return,and wish him a happy re union with his interesting family.— Geo. Paper. THE GOLD HUNTER AND THE DAGUERREOTYPE. BY W. H. COYLE. “A gentleman of this city, while passing along the street a few days since, was accosted by a stranger, who presented him a small package. He found within the parcel a da guerreotype case, which opened with a spring. On touch ing it, the lid flew up, and exposed to his astonished vision a perfect likeness of his two young daughters, whom he had left more than a year before in the east. At the head of the picture was the inscription, “Here we are, Pa.” The de lighted father, as might-bc expected, was completely over come by the affecting incident”— Sacramento Union.

W. Appropriations made by Congress. Among the appropriations made at the late session of Congress, were the following, which we find summed up in the Intelligencer. For the extension of the Capitol, two appro priations are made, one in the deficiency bill of $400,000, and the other in the general appro priation bill ot $600,000 For the Patent Office, towards the erection of the west wing, $200,000- For repairing the President’s Mansion, inclu dingcleaning, painting, whitewashing, extending tending the east wing of offices for carriage houses, &c., $7,300 , and for heating, ventilat ing, painting the exterior, painting the walls and and ceilings of the rooms of the first floor, and the purchase of books for the President’s libra ry, $2,5900. For refurnishing the President’s house, to be expended under the direction of the President, in addition to the proceeds of the sale of such of the furniture and equippage of the said house as may out of repair and unfit for use, $25,000. For the Eastern Branch Bridges, to be ex pended in completing the repairs thereof, $4,- 000. For the Equestrian Statue of General Jackson to compensate Clark Mills therefor, and make it the property 7 of the United States, $20,000. For an Equestrian Statue of Washington, our readers are aware, a special act made an ap propriation of $50,000. For paving Pennsylvania avenue, from the j President’s square to Rock creek, in addition to former appropriations, $14,700. For enclosing the triangular lot, opposite the Centre market, with an iron fence, $4,500. For erecting lamps, on both sides of Penn sylvania avenue, from Seventeenth street to Georgetown, and from the Capitol to the Navy | Yard, $3,000. The Clerks in the several Executive Depart-1 meats, from and alter the 30th of June next, are to be arranged in four classes, with different grades of salary, and no clerk is to be appoint ed in either of the classes until he shall have been examined and found qualified by a Board of Commissioners, one of whom is to be the chief of the Bureauto which the clerk is to be appoint ed, and the other two to he selected by the head of the Department to which the Bureau is at tached. Class number one is to receive an annual sal ary of nine hundred dollars each, class number two an Annual salary of one thousand two hun- • dred dollars each, class number three an annual salary of one thousand five hundred dollars each, and class number four an annual salary of one thousand eight hundred dollars each. The outstanding Stocks of the United States may be purchased by the Secretary of the Trea sury at the current market price, to be paid for from any surplus funds in the Treasury, provid i ed that the balance in the Treasury shall not at anytime be reduced below $6,000,000. The Mexican Boundary Commission is con tinued till April Ist, 1854, and the necessary ap propriations made therefor. The Destiny ot Hungary. At the conclusion of a very able article in tire last Edinburg Review, we find the following graphic de scription of the future of Hungary. &&*#*** So ended the Hungarian war of independence. The sword was laid down and the work of the executioner’s axe begun. It has been an elevat ingbut distressingjvision. A nation, strong in her ’ right, driven to extremes, defends herseli, and at first humbles her aggressor. Hurried into ex tremes herself, she falls. *Of the two men who h djier destiny injheir ~ i baj“’ one is under survey ‘jprj ( 1* Ifslbner of the enemy, j Tho other is wandering in distant countries, i seeking help for his down-trodden fatherland. One has hitherto been the object of the execra-.. : tion of his nation and of mankind. The other has received the homage of the two greatest people in the world. One had too low an opin ion of the cause he defended ; the other es timated it too highly. Gorgey judged first as a soldier and then as an Hungarian ; Kossuth first as a cosmopolite and then as an Hungarian.— One was too near, the other too far, for the mark. This mark was nationality, the dearly bought jewel for which the Hungarian has so often shed his best blood ; the oriflamme which will at this moment alone inspire him, and which he will follow so long as his name exists. It is his re ligion, his history, his literature, his country, the very atmosphere he breathes. But the struggle in another light cannot be considered as a mere national affair. It was one of principle Hunguary, tho isolated and con stitutional, against the absorbing centralisation and absolutism of Austria. Such a struggle, in order to yield a decisive verdict, ought to have been left to itself; but Austria did not conquoiv by the vitality of her institutions or the energy of her forces. She was obliged to have recourse to foreign aid. Such victory is a defeat it respects the settlement of the two principles in volved, and likewise as it regards the Future greatness of Austria. Three years laps ed since Hungary was crushed before tn Czar, and placed at the foot of the Empero f r s Aus tria. But has Austria made one step ‘ l 'tho ful filment of her centralising scheme ? is still the state of siege which maintains herUJanquili ty r . Her reluctant subjects, deprived <f the last shadow of a representative system, arWibid i ! subservience by terror, not by love. * Austria is a hollow name ; we meet w i Hun garians, Bohemians, Germans, Italian?/ Poles, but no Austrians. A native of the pmduce ot Ducal Austria Proper, who ought to be the most proud of his name, will say, I am a Viennese* or speak of some other town or district asl his_iNt e of birth, but he will never boast of^~. Austrian fatherland, Despotism my % if” based on nationality. The proud* -Mis ro?ri;lV}s,ns sum was the link whicli kept toother the i -of the Caesars. The autocacy of stands on this foundation ; but mat has Austri ryyen wherewith to inspire he subjects ? bom*- bardments, Riassaires, and exlutions! 4 It is not difficult to foresee will be the j \ future of that tendency to centre oeernment ! i in the rulers alone which is now crying the Continent. Least of all does mysW harJfg over the fate of Austria. Its doom is writtemiu language as clear as that which flashed in fire through the banqueting hall of Babylon, We see an image of gold, iron, and clay; but the gold has been corrupted and the iron weakened, and what now remains of either is but a scale to hide rather than adorn the earth of which the image consists ; —ond it is but an image after all, for where is the life? The House of Austria must now stand alone. The last golden link which bound Hungary to its rulers, and to which age had imparted the reverence due to antiqui ty, has been melted in the fire kindled to burn up a nation’s liberties, and to forge, not chains of love, but the fetters of servitude and humili ation. This unhappy House, deceived by its successes, may think it has quenched the spirit of freedom, but the world’s records are a proof | that the strongest arguments of despotism so lavishly used by imperial oppressors—the hang man, the axe, and the prison,—are inadequate instruments for suppressing the breath of a na tion which pants for liberty. Were the millions of voices-which cry, ‘Haza es Szabadsag/ (country and freedom) in the Magyar tongue, silenced by the Austrian execu tioner; or were the millions of hearts which animate those tongues impaled in a death-strug gle on the bayonets of a mercenary Austro- Russian host—Hungary would not be dead* The destined avenger will yet arise. —— Foul Murder. —A most foul and wanton murder was committed, on Saturday morning last, on the person of a Mr. Ileffman or Ileffr non, from Lincolnton, North Carolina, near the Sandy ford, in Spartanburg District. It appears the deceased was travelling with a wagon and two mules, and had camped out for the night. I When found in the morning, he was lying on the ground near the tongue of his wagon, dead, I with his face and head cut, apparently with an | axe, so shockingly that his features ;.vere with difficulty recognized. There is no doubt but money was the object of the murderer, as, when last seen, on Friday evening, the deceased had in his possession from S4O to S6O, and when found his pockets had been rifled of their contents, and no clue could be found to the perpetrator of the bloody deed. We hope a strict watch will he kept, and the villain receive the punishment his black deal richly merits.— Laurensville Herald. avti Stnfimtl COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. IHUIIV MORNING, MARCH 18, 1853. I'ierce & Kins Club. We give our readers to-day the reply of the Pierce and King Club and a good many other persons to the statement of Messrs. Pitts, Cherry and Jones, in reference to the meeting of the 7th inst., and our edito rial comments thereon. There are several things about this document which are worthy of note. It is not signed by the President of the club. Why is Col. John Quin’s name omitted ? Did he too disapprove of the action of the meeting ? There are 65 names signed to the Reply. Not I*2 of them were present at the meeting referred to, and are therefore as incompetent to throw light upon its proceedings as we arc. A great many questions are answered which nobody asked. We certainly never enquired into the history of the Pierce and King club. The public were quite fanv'iar with that. It did good in the late can vass, and so long as it confined itself to its legitimate duties it commanded the respect of the party. But when thirteen of its members, chose to pervert it from its proper objects, and make it an engine to subserve ■private interests, it forfeited the confidence of the com munity. We never objected to Michael N. Clarke as Post Master. ♦Jfhe was a soldier in 1812 and in 1536, we hguor him for his patriotism. Certainly the Times and Sentinel office can appreciate his sacrifices. We do not see, however, that the fact that he has in the language of the reply, “been enabled to move in what so many deem “more genteel circles,” gives him any claims to office in a Republican Government where virtue , ca pacity and patriotislv are the only passports to distinc tion. The only objection -we made to the proceedings of the meeting was that the party were not informed of the objects of the meeting , This is the only question. The objection is not mdt by saying that public no tice was given of the meeting. Only the friends of one of the candidates were present. llow did Have Forsyth, Jones, TqrrancJfcubU""’ ‘iJ* Co’umbus? Why, ?.Bths of ’ -SThe petitions of one <k the other of t|, j- -Ai, and we venture Atlie assertion that ill 1 ■ referred to had been gfiven and tho object approved, instead of a meeting m thirteen persons, the Court House could not have Mid the Democratic host which would have as sembled there. The party would have been represented jyfui not a clique. There seems to boas energetic a desire on the part of some men to become the aristocracy of the “lower ten” as there is on the part of others to be the aristoc racy of the “upper ten.” Such men are always making distinctions in society. Th's man is a “trace man ;” that one is a “silk stocking man if a man wears a dirty shirt he is more respec table in their eyes than one who wears a clean one ; to ride in a carriage is a mortal sin •, &e., &c. Now we have no respect for either “a lower ten aristocrat,” nor “an upper ten aristocrat.” They are neither of them Republicans nor Democrats. The French Revolution was prolific of such fellows ; but as soon asfthey got the power, they “‘•“"tned the airs and vices of the old arist ocracy at Ji!Sfi m Pffied on the rights and liWrties of the people. ~ [ M e find tl ie names 0 f a good many gentlemen to the Reply who *\ vere never members of the Pierce and King club an q who have too much character to sanction an und . ianf j movement to overreach honorablo com pel',’ . We have found one of them who indignant lwstruck liis name from the reply. There may be yolhers whose names were obtained in the same way. We think this manner of bolstering up a bad cause i even mere reprehensable than the course of the meeting. Ole Bull.

Californian Intelligence. The murderers of Lt. Col. Craig were hanged in San Diego, California, on the last day in January, in the presence of nearly one hundred Indian Chiefs and head men, by Col. Magruder and the soldiers of his command, in accordance with the decision of the court martial. They died bravely, but confessed the enormi ty of their crime, and warned their associates not to follow their bad example. The remains of Col. Craig arrived at San Diego on the Ist Feb. from the Desert, and were buried on the 2d by the side of the gallant officers who fell at San | Pasquel. The steamer Daniel Webster brings intelligence from California up to the 15th ult. Miss Catherine Hays was giving concerts in Sacra mento city. The celebrated Miska ITauscr was giving concerts in San Francisco. The Lemantour claim which has lately turned up, | covers several leagues of land within the limits of San ; Francisco on which improvements are already made to the value of a million of dollars or more. The claim dates back to 18-13 and rests upon a grant from Michel toreno in consideration of moneys and supplies furnish ed the Governor. It is said to be one of the best claims ever urged before the commissioners. Preliminary steps have been Liken to build a plank road from Auburn to Sacramento city. The cost will be $400,000, and Placer county agrees to pay $! 00,000 of the expense. The people of Neveda are discussing the preferability of building a plank road to Marysville or Sacramento — the cost of either road will be near half a million of dollars.

To the Editor of the Times and Sentinel : In you!’ paper of Friday, and again on the 12th inst., you have editorial notices which seem to question the propriety of the meeting of the Club held on the 7th inst., and its action. As you ask for further light upon the subject, we give it to you, although wo will be al lowed to deem that your position as a public journalist, and as a Democratic Editor, should keep you informed, by your own exertions, of the workings of the party. Shortly after the return of Mr. Morton, the delegate to the Baltimore Convention, a meeting was called in Columbus, and a Pierce and King Club established for the county. It was at a time when but little harmony existed between the two wings of the democracy of this section, and the club was formed to accomplish that de sirable object. For a meeting or two it struggled on with but few members, a smaller number even than at tended its dissolution, and formed the Democratic As sociation for Muscogee. But that number consisted, as the meeting the other night was composed, of the “trace men” of the party, not of those who on an election day, ride in their carriage to the polls to deposit their votes, but of that energetic number who marshal the clans, who select the ammunition, and are upon the field with the earliest blast of the bugle, leaving it only when victory is perched upon our banner, or obeying the recall note, which takes them defeated but not dis heartened from the conflict, and prepared to enter upon the strife of to-morrow. But in a short time its members swelled, until as the election approached and victory was anticipated, but few could be found but who were ambitious of membership, even the timid and the time serving gladly gathering to the fold. The results of the club proved the perfect establish ment of harmony in the party, and a democratic majori ty of sweeping numbers. If you ask why the club met on the 7th inst., we tell you that by its constitution, it was to be dissolved after the inauguration, and it should have been the pride of every member, that this disso lution should be formal. Do you ask why the Demo cratic Association was formed ? We tell you it was to preserve the safety of the party in view of an election for Govertfdr, a member of Congress, &c., which a few short moons will herald. f The meeting was an open and public one; notice of which had been given in your widely extended Tri- Weekly, and Hand Bills announcing it, printed by your “Steam Press.” But it seems the crime has been committed of selecting a man who served in the war of 1812, and again in 1836, as a suitable candidate for a public office, who went to laying brick to support an in teresting family after his return, and who but within a few years, have been enabled to move in what so many deem “ more genteel circles .” And your jury of three men, but one of whom, however, was recognized as supporting our candidates, say that Mr. R. C. Forsyth, W. E. Jones and Mansfield Torrance were nominated by an individual known to be unfriendly to the claims of these gentlemen ; probably they were, but if so, it was because no friendly voice was lifted in their favor, and they were not present to represent their own inter ests, having forestalled every action, and gne as sup pliants in person to the Capitol, for that office to which wo recommend Mr. Clarke. But, Mr. Editor, it is useless to multiply words. We who have formed this Association, have done so with the best intentions, and ’ solely for the benefit of the party. Neither of us are, or shall we be, seekers for office eitlier from the County, tate or Federal Govern ment 5 we will have no share in the “flesh pots.” The banner of the Association will not be furled . We invite all good men and true to its standard ; but if there are those who oppose our action, while they still desire to act with the party, we say to them, that there is ample field for all our exertions in the contests be fore us. Form your own Associations, if you do not choose to rally to ours ; the county is large enough, and there is doubtless material for more than one.

Washington, D. C., March 10th, 1853. Dear Sir. -.—Being detained here yesterday waiting for afriend, I went to hear Young America on the Clay ton and Bulwer treaty. He was pretty hard on Clay ton. Clayton had spoken on Tuesday and Wednesday in his defence. Not hearing him, I could not so fully understand Douglas, but one thing I understood very well— that he was in favor of the Monroe doctrine, as understood by those who ate determined to keep all we have and get all we can, and utterly opposed to any colonization on this continent by any European power, and last of all, by England. Mr. D. is a clever debater, but I do not think him a very great man, nor do I be lieve in the Monroe doctrine as construed by him, I would fight Sea Rugs’ battle sooner than see the British acquire Cuba or Yucatan, but if the Governments of South America or the Esquimaux choose to per mit Europeans to colonize their territory, it is no busi ness of ours. I do not believe I have a right to say to a man owning lauds near me, that he shall sell to no one but me, for fear some other purchaser’s hogs or cattle might some day get in my field. I think it is ‘going sufficiently far to say, no European power shall acquire Cuba or Yucatan, or that portion of Central America that we have to pass through to get to Cali fornia. There is no State in the Union whose laws would prevent a man from buying a tract of land lying between two tracts owned by someone else. We are, however, a great people to provide for contingencies. Although there is not the remotest probability of our wanting to send troops or arms aud munitions across from the Mississippi to California for the next 50 years, it is urged that we shall build a Rail road across to California for that purpose. The advc \itcs of the mea sure say that the government is bound to protect hs people, and it can only be done by Rail roads. It is truly fortunate for the dear people, that Pail roads were invented, otherwise they would have been without pro tection, except by them and caloric flets ; very few are found bold enough to ask for money , for these utopian schemes, but they ask for, (and generally obtain,) as much land as will raise the money. They will not give away money, but give its equivalent. This is drawing a distinction between tweedle dee and tweedle dum—the sound is a little different. To hear some of these new light expounders of the constitution, yon would think they had been educated in a college of Jesuits, where they were taught that the end sanctifies the means. Some of them are very ingenious ; others again re mind me of tho old Dutchman who was opening his barn very early one morning, and being asked by some one passing by, if he was letting in the light, said, “No, I ish letting the tarkness out.” There are occasionally southern whigs enough acting with the body of the democrats to stop some of these cra zy schemes, but not often. The body of the whigs and the north-western democrats are loose constructionists. When land or appropriation bills are up, they are most ly general icelfare politicians. The limitations of tho constitution are never in the way of this class. When they cannot bend the constitution they break it. The great and fundamental principle of government should bo “ protect all, help none.” The correct interpretation of the constitution is easily arrived at, by leading the history of the country under the old articles of confederation and the journals of the convention that formed the constitution. We find there what were the defects of the confederation anc the remedies proposed. It was simply to give the Federa Government more power to manage our external r< • lations. What would Franklin have thought of a man who in the convention should havo proposed to give Congress power to appropriate millions for the support cf Lunatic Asylums, as if Stato could not ta\o care of her own .Lunatics; yet I have soen a proposition to give ten millions of acres of the public domain'Jer this purpose. As we increase in wealth and numbers, we decrease in honesty, and republican simplicity, and the constitution is scarcely worth the parchment on which it is written. There is still a crowd of pa triotic people here, offering their services to the President to enable him to carry on the government. If he finds any difficulty in pro curing persons to accept, office I believe I would accept a foreigu mission, provided it was not to England. At any other court I should have to have an interpreter, and I would take special oareto have one that was capable of playing minister himself, whilst I stood by and looked wise. I have been here nearly a fortnight, and we have no | two days alike ; no boarding school girl w watering place belle was ever so fickle as theylimate here. I leave | for the Sunny South to-night; our Senators expect to leave also. Health and happiness attend you ! is tho prayer of Tustenuggee, From the Georgia Telegraph. Mr. Hr own, or the new Recuit. A FARCE—IN ONE ACT. We do not know that will consider the apostacy of Mr. Edwin R. Brown, worth a notice in the Telegraph. But as the recent let ter of this gentleman has in various quarters ex cited the question—who the devil is this Mi- Brown ?—we have concluded to embalm him in a paragraph. Mr. Brown, then is a lawyer, living we believe in Sumter county ; though if we happen to locate him incorrectly, our read ers, we feel sure, will excuse the error,—for it is hardly possible for us to furnish minute biogia phies of such candidates for office, as are never known to the public till the papers announce their defeat. We gather from this Mr. Brown’s letter, that he at one time pretended to he a Democrat that he had no great objection to be made a Democratic Judge—that he agreed to abide by the nomination of a Convention—that the Convention was so lost to patriotism as to pass over the name of Mr. Brown—that Mr. Brown, like his illustious namesake, “would not give it up so —that he entered himself against the field that he was soundly beaten—and that he then, with praise worth alacrity went over to tho whigs whoabout this time are certain to sympath ize with any body who has been defeated. Now we are not about to insinuate that Mr. Brown, being chargrined with disappointment, and stung by defeat, has done a very foolish thing, On the contrary, when in addition to the above facts, we remember that Sumter is decidedly whig in its politics. God forbid that we should be so unjust as to suppose Mr. Brown any thing more than a most disinterested patriot, who has selected a very unlucky time to give way to his feelings. Brown says that he has thought there was something wrong about the Demo cratic party for a long time—he has seen indi cations of wildness about them which would have shocked his grandmother—but then the amiable man did not fancy the name of turn coat, and held ou, hoping, no doubt, that the party would finally listen to Brown, and “do the thing that was right.” However, he has been disappointed. The party has at last com mitted one of those terrible agrarian excesses, which Brown has so long anticipated. The Democrats of the south west have—yes, people of Georgia, restrain your indignation, ifvou can they have actually 7 refused to make a Judge of Brown ! This was the one drop too much. Ed win Brown rose in his wrath, thre w off the shack les of parly, and in an excess of patriotic devo tion—ratted to the Whigs ! Now, had Brown seen fit to desert quietly, ‘-' e should have had nothing to say 7 , but since he has chosen to stultify himself by a public letter we have concluded to second his efforts in this wa y- No man could have written a letter so too: oughlj- asinine, except with the desire of bew o laughed at; and as we have thus presented t f!L ludicrous spectacle to over three thousand su j scribers, we have no doubt that Mr. Brown send us a letter of thanks by the very nextmai Sincere ATTACHMENT.-'Hast ihou evenove Henrietta?” I sighed. i -he replied ! “I should rather imagine I had, sht I “Oh, did not my glances my feeling , When you helped me the tim'd tin - ding to-day ?” ,
