Several ircniletneii ol tlisliiiclion , ■ nn “ , ! a arc of opinion it will lead ton more elfectu- y alway of rearing Vineyards in this country.'* That our country is natu-ally fi'teil for' 1 the purpose in undeniably evident, trom the spontaneous production ot tlie V ine in eve- v r y part of th.e sea coast, from Georgia to s Maine, and to the westward as far us vve know any thing of its productions. Which is the best of these grapes re- * m tins to be inquired : but it is ascertained 11 that seveial kinds of them are superior fori j wine, to any of those called European grapes, hitherto imported into this country.|" For example bull or bullet grape nt Carolj- 1 nt, tfiebloo.il grape of Virginia, and Coo pers grape, of New Jersey ; all ol übicb '• stand our climate perlectly well without co-d vering ; and their fruit,not being injured 1* liy frost, ns nil (lie. European grapes are I known to He, i.i improvetl by a slight trust. ' Os the European giapes the downy toalcil vines have the important advantage, that 1 the down secures them from the ravages id the rose hug. These giapes are the “ .Mil- | ler Burgundy” white MoriHci” and j above all others (he “ Genuine Tokay”|i which to (he advantage of the hoary leaf,'] adds that of producing the best wine in the | world ; and growing right or ten de |, grees further not tli than we. ate, may be re- • lied on to stand mir climate as well as our I i own vines. Tims far for preface. —what.i j follows may be. considered as a simple plain j lesson, ami it shall lie the consideraiion of , a single vine, because if (be cultivation oil one vine is well understood (he application j ( of -that knowledge to any number, is an n- j perution of plain common sense. In Feb-: ruarv take a single joint of the vine you j choose ; the genuine Tokay if you can iiml it, rut it otV half an incli above the rye, and again at two inches below the eye, cover each end with a sticking planter of any kind, and set it in a pot id garden mould (about six inches in diameter and unglazed ) The eve of the cutting mutt be covered| with earth ami then watered to settle the ground j after this, lay li.lt’an inch of horse dung on the surface to keep it from becom ing dry and hard. Place.tbe pot in your hot bed, prepared for raising your Cabbage plants, whenever that is fruity. The vine will require no further care than that ex tended to yuur Cabbage plants. If more! than one shoot rises from the eye, rub ..(Tall but (hs strongest ; about the lii>t of June' turn out the vine from (he put and set it in > your garden, or at the east or north end of your house, wherever it can be protected from violence. It will grow in any soil, but like any other plant will thrive best in (lie richest soils. When Inst removed, wa ter it at a distance from me plant so as to draw the earth toward tin* plant, instead of washing the ground from it. If you water it afterwards, pour tin* water into a trench at least eighteen inches from the plain ; fir unless this precaution is used, wateringdoes more harm than good, and does nuts injury in the driest time. As the vine slioois up it must be supported from falling. No other care than keeping the ground clear of weeds is necessary during the first summer. In November, a slight covering of straw or corn husks is b neficial in pre venting a free/.ing ami thawing of the vine. In February it must be trimnmd ; and here commences what I conceive to be the sole difficulty in cultivating the vine, viz t to determine at winch of the eves it is t t be cutoff. What is here about to be said de serves the more attention, as it applh s to every succeeding cutting of the vine in eve ry «t»ge of ii» existence, goes dire tly to the ground and principle t f its cultivation, and will not be found in any author who h..s written on the subject. Every joint of a grape vine has its mvr separate pith. This most Important cli cumstance commences at the lowest leaf, that has a clasper opposite to the leaf. A solid woody substance passing from the leal to the clasper, through the vine and connect ing thntn together, cuts olf entirely (he coin i numication between the pith u tj the joint below, villi (hat of the joint next above ; and so on upward at every joint through the wuole length of the vine. Anti it ha on cumstance not less important to be km. m ami kept in mind that all the eyes below tin fym, UaspiT are formed in the bosom ol \ feeble leaves; that the I base ofthese eyes docs not extend across the vine so as to entirely cut off the pith of the joint below from that of the joint next above it: these eyes are therefore imper fect, and whenever you trim the vine, ought to be rubbed off It is at the first trimming of the vine we begin to apply,, the principle above laid down, and it is here only, that there can be! any difficulty in the application of it ; and this difficulty can only arise from the cir-| cumstance of so very feeble a growth in thej vine as not to have produced a clasper ini any part of it which will seldom happen;! but if it should, the vine should be cut off half an inch above the lowest strong full eye; otherwise it is to be cut off half an incli above Hie first clasper, and in both ca sts all the eyes below are carefully to he rubbed off. The eye thus left on, will some times produce mure than one shout, in which case all but the strongest should be nibbed off and that supported from falling down ; which, except Ibc keeping of the ground clear from weeds is all the care necessary the first year. In November this shoot is j again to be covered as before directed, unU. in the following February is to be again cu*; oH jnst above the second lowest clasper; that is, leaving on two eyes to shoot tins season, and again rubbing off all the eyes below the lowest clasper. IV.th these| shoots should be permitted to grow to llicir utmost length, winch if the soil be lavora I ble will be very considerable, and there will be reason to Hope for fruit toe next sea son. Mere you ought to be apprized that the lowes.i clasper ; ppears higher up on some kinds ol the vine than others ; on s me it; appears at Hie illicit leal, on some al the! tourlii, and no some kinds as high up as the; fildi leaf ; bit the same rule, is m be aliKei applied and all a; d ev ry eye below the low e,-.t clasper is to be cuob> d olf. In the 3d Feb nary cutting three eyes on each shoot may be lell on, and nol more, however strong the shooti may be. Er-itn this lime forward all the side oiancbes (rum the, shoots of lie year are to be rubbed off, taking great care not to injure die leal hum whence ibey spring, whica is the nur 3 e of the bud al tlie mol ol its stem. At the dlh time ol cutting (lie vine and from that tune forward it may be cut about ,tl ic last of October, four eyes on each snoot ; may be left, and at the ulh cutting, five eyes | may be I It on each shout, (>ut more than five eyes on a shoot ought never to be leu 00, even In the oi ist vigorous state of growl, i at any ag of toe vine: lor however pleas ing the increase for the year may be, tiie in jure thereby done to the vine wnl be »> co and lamented in the following and prob.ibu many succeeding years. 1 If it be inquired why a single eye is re [eottimended, rather than a cutting of 10 iincl.es loog.it is replied, that roots shooiingl from a single eve ~re exclusively from it ! self and i,r(> much the strongest, and strik.-! more directly downward : f’.e shoot from it lias less pith in it, the wood is firmer and shorter jointed and comes sooner into full bearing, and appears to be the most healthy vine, and to these i oporia .t advantages may be truly added dial a thousand plants fit to set out, may be raised from a single eye with less labor and within le«s space, either in a hot bed or open ground, than a hundred plants can be raised from long cut tings ; which have no' that I know of, one single advantage in their favour : and in a new country it is of no sin ill consideration that the same cut lings will produce five times I the number of plants. As to the manner of accommodating your ivine t" its situation, an ac ive iiiimagina>ionl would suggest a volume on the subject, and| possibly, unluckily miss ilie only direction suited to the case ; but fortunately, the fact is (hat a very small share of common sense,| v id in all cases supply the deficiency, and very little more will be requir d to apply the principle alid practice here hid down, to a bti..deed or a thousand vines, whenever the people of the country shall feel the ad vantage or necessity ot raising Vineyards for a supply of wine within ourselves. A few examples by men u! your standing will! lead them into practice in the only way in .which we can hope for speedy success.l I \nd 1 pledge myself to you, whether von immediately succeed or not, you will de- ! live a pleasure from the attempt itself that shall amply sati-ty you t >r every expense 1 of-m mey or time it shall cost you. So >rt-1 1 log with the long branches, bending them in-! to festoons, and mark! g (he growth of the fine clusters from the upper bends, that in 1 this way may b‘ preserved and occasionally displaying them at the festive board, has the happiest edict on the human mind— -1 such as II mmiparte never felt. These arc he proper play-things of great men : had 1 (Jen.

FROM THE SAVANNAH GEORGIAN, HE MINESCENCE9. Nothing is mure pleasing to the mind, next to the anticipations of hope, than the recol lections of antiquity. —The memory dwells upon scenes which are long since passed with peculiar complacency, when those [scenes were upon the spot rendered dear to jus by birth or residence, or by particular in timacy. It is gratifying to human vanity, to look round upon the improvements anti re I linmnents of the day in which we live, and jto compare with it the situation of men and . tilings, before these meliorations were intro duced. To view the works of art around ! us—the noble buildings—the extended I * wharves—the fine vessels, and busy coun tenances of the citizens, surrounded with conveni nces and luxuries—and as it were to transport ourselves back to the first visit 1 ot the hardy settlers—ineirtents, their hum ble dwellings—the unimproved and iiicon ' venient river, in which the visit of a Kuro ipean vessel, was a season of jubilee to the I necessitous se tiers—a city at iis birth, I I planted in the midst of a howling wilderness i—anil to dwell in lh<- mind’s eve on the |melancholy an I aim ms cou itenancea of the l eniigi ants, when their ship had left them — jlanded three thousand miles from thy hum j most dear to them, in such a scene, with an untried soil, in t he midst of savages and swamps---raises m tin* in ml retlecn ms fa {pleasing nature, no- u.nm gied with some portion of pride I r our tin; ro-ed situation, iand regret I’m th -ir sufferings.---Sucii a sen sation rose in our mind < n viewing a plan or view of die city »l Sav„miah, t.-k-.-n not two years alter the ft it visit ol General Ogle ithoupe, pf-ented t.i Council by J.

The principal part of the city was comprised between Drayton-streel on the E.—the Bay on the N. Bull-street on the t W. and South Broad or Market-street on the S. In this space there were seventy . three buildings—between Congress-street j ou tlie North, and State-street on the South, , within these limits was the greatest number ’of buildings. In the remaining part of the city, between Bull and Jefferson streets, , and die Bay and South Broad-streets, were ibut fifteen houses—seven of which fronted |jon die Bay.—The houses are represented as Hall of one story. The woods surround the city on every side, apparently within 100 t yards.---This was Savannaii in 1734. 1 , ‘ VISIT TO TUB SBVBNTY-FOUft. e On Saturday evening ia»i, the oicam (• Boat VV ashing.on took ncr departure lor _ tiie (jillicit Smtes’ snip ol die Lnnc North ib.vit iUxA, lymg at ancaor in me f'otomac, .-oli tt.gged Bonn, u.i uuaru ofthe Steam gi 80.,i w..a ilic the idciiCul tiie (Jnileu ota.es, ydie secretary ol die N.ivy, Commodore s it»po*-.«s, C /iiuiumoie Muhhu, and Ooin g|illi.uoii- tAI i cKag.v J Mr. K.ELLV, ol Ule e . enait —and.ol ino House ol itepresen.a .[lives, .vtr.

AUGUSTA : FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1825. ~ I ■- ... , . .... . TTL ’ long agvmy \s V3ye,v. ,, ! From the National Intelligencer. I Washington, February 10. i JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, of Massachu ; setts, was yesterday elected President of ) the United States, for four years, to commence on the 4th day of March next, when the present term of Mr. Monroe’s Administration will have expired. JOHN C. CALHOUN, of South Caro lina, has been duly elected, by the Electoral . votes, to be Vice President of the Uni ted States, forfouryears, to commence on ! the fourth day of March next, when Mr, Tompkins’ term of service will have ex , pired. Contrary to all previous expectation, an . Election of President has been effected by the House of Representatives at the first balloting, Mr. Adams having received the votes of thirteen States, Gen. Jackson the votes of seven States, and Mr. Crawford the votes of four States. Up to the moment of balloting, the vote of at least one State was matter of conjecture. The delegations I «f the States, it is known, vote, in this case, Iby ballot, each State giving one vote. The States are understood, however, to have voted as follows s For Mr. Adams— Maine, New Hamp shire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Con necticut Vermont, New York, Maryland, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Louis iana. For Gen, Jackson--Ncw Jersey, I ennsjliama, South Carolina, lennessoe Alabama, Mississippi, Indiana. For Mr! Crawford- Delaware, Virginia, North iCaroiina, Georgia. I It is generally known, also, what the division in several of the Colleges. In the New-York College, for example, Mr. A 'dams received 18, Mr. Crawford, 14, and General Jackson 2 votes. In the Kentuc ky College, Mr. Adams received 8, Gen. jJacksou 4. In Ohio, Mr, Adams 10, Gen. jjatkson 2, Mr. Crawford 2. In the Mary land College, Mr. Adams received 5 out of the 9 votes. In the N n th-Carolina Col lie, Mr. Crawford received 10, Gen. Jack son 2, and Mr. Adams 1 vote, &c. It is probable we may be enabled, hereafter, to state further particulars of the votes. The moment of the Election, yesterdav, may naturally be supposed to have been one of deep excitement. The result was known in the Hall, as soon a? it was ascertained how New-York had voted. The very crowded galleries, however, arc separated so com- l.‘ pletely from the body of the House, and '• such perfect silence prevailed, that the first ' \ idea that a choice had been made, was com municated by the report of fife Tetlerh; that '-"k Mr. Adams had received 13 votes! The effect was electric. Without waiting for -j the Tellers to conclude their report, a few ‘l’ scarcely audible hisses were heard, as if in ;f reply to the plaudits. The presentation ’’ of the report was arrested by the Speaker, order required in the House, aid thegaila- % l ries ordered to be cleared, and were cleared \ accordingly. This was a deep disappoint ment to the more than thousand persons, who had, many of them, patiently waited’ from early morn, to witness this august spectacle. It was necessary, however, that the House should exact (he respect due, not only to its authority, but to the political rights and personal feelings of its members. After the galleries were cleared, the re port of the 'Fellers was concluded, ard the ' result declared in cite form hythe Speaker. We cannot forbear to add to the Docu ments on our file a private letter from Mr. v Clay, published in the Richmond Enquirer of the Bth. The Speaker’s course lus, as he pre nets, drawn much censure upon him '• -and it is~a little surprising that the reas ons governing it, are not more strongly sta ted, Mr, Crawford’s health is the first i mentioned, and if that gentleman be indeed on the verge of dissolution, or if his intel lect has been destroyed by the afflictions of the body- -the Speaker is justified in giving his vote and influence to a “mind unhurt and understanding sound.” Rut from all qu irters we learn that Mr. C’s. mind is as vigorous as ever, while his physical in firmities are becoming less everyday. In deed, in most of the communications from Washington, his recovery is spoken of as next to complete. “ The circumstances un der w hich lie presents himself to the House” are said tube “ conclusive against him.”—- Now , what are those circumstances f Mr. Crawford is the lowest on the list of Candi dates ; but the Constitution gives him an equal chance of election before the House, and therefore, there is nothing in this cir cumstance, conclusive against him. Mr. Crawford was unfairly deprived of the votes of North Carolina "and New-York, and surely there is nothing in that circumstance conclusive —against him. Mr. Crawford was persecuted and oppressed, and succeed ed against his persecutors—we hope there is nothing in this circumsfance---conclusivt against him. Mr. Crawford has ably per formed the duties and business of his office ; he.has done much to relieve the pccuoiarv embarrassments of the western country much to save from ruin the purchasers of public lands ; who, in all these “circum stances,” perceives any thing conclusit/e
