The ! evidence is as < strong in the one case as in the other; and yet no one is prepared to charge Jack son and Van Buien with a corrupt bargain. [Lowell Journal. The annexed notice of our Navy is from the United Service Journal , a monthly mis cellany, devoted to military and naval sub- * i j hir:o contrast to the style in which such subjects have been usually treated by Eu- i ! i ope an writers: I “ Many absurd statements concerning ! the organization olthe American Navy have been circulated in Europe There is none ! mote false or more foolish than the story 1 hat y oung mates o( merchantmen are or ev er have been, taken for the first steps of the service. Boys, between the ages of twelve and eighteen, receive the appointment of; j midshipmen, and after having served acer- • i tain number of years, they are examined j | let Lieutenants. These examinations are j very rigid, and tin y are conducted with the j gi eaiest impartiality. While the writer was 1 in America, lie formed an mtima y wi h the commander of a frigate. One day, at Wash ington, he entered the room of ihe Captain, just as a naval officer of high ank wnsquit i ling it. “ You met one of the Commis i sioners at the door,” said the writer's ac i qunintance; “he has been to beg I would make his son, who is iust ordered to my I ship, mind his books. * hey tell me the | young fellow is clever enough, and a good sailor ; but lie has been twice defeated in | try ing to get through his mathematics, be j cause lie will not study. * In what other navy would a son of a Lord of the Admiral j ty lose his commission in two examinations, j for tho want of a little mathematics? The j most severe system of examination, not on ! ly into professional qualifications, hut into 1 moral character, is now rigidly observed in | the American army and navy. The lower : r anks of both branches of their service are | admirably filled. Midshipmen, instead of being taken lrorn the merchant service, have been often taken from the service under furloughs, to command merchant ships.- No man in the world is more jealous of his rank than the American navy or army offi cer. It would far exceed the power of the President to push his own son an inch be j vend tiie steps he is entitled to by age and j service. The Senate would refuse to ap prove of such a nomination. The same 1 impartiiality is obseived with respect to command;.—-A Captain or commander is | not only sure of getting a ship, when his I turn conies, but lie must have an excellent j excuse; or he will be made to take one.— Both establishments are kept within reason j able bounds, and promotions are slow and weary. There is not a single officer ne | cessmily on half pay, either in the land or sea service. There is not now, nor has , been lot twenty years, an officer in the A- I me/ican navy, in command of a ship, the j four or five oldest excepted, who did not regularly outer the marine as a inidsliip ; man.” Live Oak —lt is well known that Gov ernment has, for some yeare past, been directing its attention to the preservation and growth if the Live Oak Tree, which is such an important material in ship build ing. In the Pensacola Gazette of the 17th tilt., we find the following article on this interesting subject:— “We have made some inquiries respect ing the cultivation of Live Oak on Deer Point, opposite this town. The land pur chased from Gen. Call, Judge Brackbridge, Col. Fenwick, and Cos!. White, together with that reserved by Government, con stitute a body of 20 or 38,000 acres, bound ed by Yellow Water Bay on one side, and the sound of St. Rosa on the other. The land immediately at the point, about 4000 acres, is all live oak hammock, with a bor der of a thrifty young growth along the wa tt r, from Ito 300 yards wide. But the interior, although well set with oak, is shrubby, having been subject to repeated fires from the pine woods. Yet from the similarity of the soil and general growth, there is little doubt, that it is as well adapt* ed to the purpose as the border. This border or selvage is about 10 miles in cir cuit, aud, besides the young growth, con tains a number of la <*♦ trees, fit for imme diate use. Much of this valuable timber has been cut away at former periods, for the construction of vessels; itnlie year 1804, a Spanish forty four, the Pensacolenea, was bui t at Navy Cove, from the timber procured at the point. W r e are informed that Judge Bracken bridge was requested to suggest to the Go vernment a plan for the management of the tract of land reserved, nn-1 for the preserva tion of the livo oak generally That gen tleman accordingly communicated one, which was approved and ordered to be car ried into execution. The out line was as follows: 1. To cloar away all the foreign growth from among the young and thrifty live ak% so as to give ’ltem their entire pos session of the ground, to prune them of all dead limbs, aud give them snflicient space to expand. 2. To cut down the large full grown tri es fit for use, and secure the timber un der sheds at the Navy Yard; and those likely still to improve, to be cleared and pruned. 3. To make experiments of planting out the young trees, in the open grassy pine • woods adjoining the hammock, in places >< Ip ll! Jilt , ’ll',!ving )'Ou(iSu<u><ll them to keep oh ih<’ foes. About two months ago, the Judge re ceived instructions to appoint an overseer, 1 to liii o 20 hands hu one year, and to com mem e opeiatioiu- to tlie forgoing plan’ He according commenced immediately, and the win k under the direction of Mr. Davis lias been carried on with the most llatte-fing success The trees cleared out airpady from boati tiful groves, and are as ‘carefully pruned as those ol an orchard. Thev are divided into four classes; beginning with the v.oung cst, which are under 2 inches in drametor, and are called nursery trees—'h* second class, are between 2 and 6 inches in diam eter, a id generally from 15 to 30 feet in flight—the 3J are from 6 inches to a. suffi cient size for immediato use—tiie 4lli con sists of lull grown trees. Os the first class immense numbers have been cleared and pruned—of tlie second, about 8000, and of the third, about 2000 have been cleared, allowing them alf suf ficient spare to expand. At a moderate estimate, the Judge thinks the second class, those between 2 and 6 inches, will be fit for use in 20 years—those of the third class, 6 inches and upwards, on an average, in 10 years—As the sizes vary se me will arrive at maturity long before other*.— Tiie ground will bdd a greater number than would stand erect, if full grown. Ol the 2d and 3d classes, tho Judge thinks at a low estimate, he will he aide to clear out from 20 to 30000 this year. The growth, which has been cut away, consists of hickory, water oak, and cedar pint*. The live ouk, like the chestmt and locust, springs from the roots and slump of the mother plant, so that by taking proper pains, and by confining tlie operation to those spots, where they have been planted by nature, the danger of the destruction of this valuable timber may be prevented, still the forming of nurseries from tlie experi ment, and although the period before the acorns will become tiocs fit for use, most be great when compared with the duration of human life, yet it may be short in com parison wiih the age of a nation. England is only now beginning to use those trees, which were planted 70 or 80 years ago The tree, however, which has the benefit of ancient and extended root, is of very rapid growth. The live odks, present in Jude Blackenbridge’s door yard have, in 5 years increased from the diame ter of 4 inches to 8. If the experiment at Deer Point should equal present expectations the plan can be put in operation on a more extended scale at different places along the coast of Flori da, Georgia, and South Caroline, and the several islands along their coasts, which are now generally ‘veil set with this valuable growth. According to tlie reports of tho Commissioners, who have been employed in examining aud selecting live oak along our coast, there are several millions of live oak trees, on the sound of St. Rosa, and the bay of Choctawhatchie, and also situa ted as to have the advantage of navigable water to our Navy Yard. If 5000000 trees can be preserved from trespassers, and fires, they will soon become of incalculable benefit for Naval purposes. Establishments mav be made, where our siiperanuated and disabled s'oameti may be profitably employed in a light healthy 1 bor, at the same time that they are taken care of instead of being turned adrift in old age, or when no longer able to encounter the hardships of the sea. It has been said, that there are but two kinds of wood fit for ships of war, the tique of the East Indies, and the live oak, and that the latter is preferred; but it is becom ing so scarce cspecia iiy on public, lands, that it is difficult to fill a contract, for the frame of a sloop of war, on any thing like reasonable terms. The live oak trees, which have been planted in the vicinity of gentlemen’s seats in Georgia and South Carolina, or such as have been reserved in their fields and suffered to remain are more beautiful, than tfiose found in the forests, which proves the advantage of cultivation. There are some superb avenues near the sea coasts in those states; that of the late Col. Tatnall, may be mentioned, for which large sums have been offered; but the trees had been planted by his grandfather, and he would not consent to cut them down. COMMERCIAL. SAVANNAH EXPORTS.

M. £ late advices from Europe have caused a depression in the C itton market, and very little has consequently been doing in the article during the week. Sea Islands, etc. are nominally the same as last week, and we do not therefore vary our general quotations of them.— In Uplands there have been some transactions, and a reduction in the lower qualities of about L 4 ct. has been submitted to. We now quote the range from 7 to 9 1-2, while selections from fine lots and fancy parcels vary from 9 1-2 to 10 hi cents. The continued scarcity of vessels has al?o an unfavorable efifect upon the market, and the purchases making are generally stored m tire ex pectation of a decline in freights. Rice —Has also been unfavorably afFected by recent advices both fro :i England and the Conti nent. Prime Rice cannot now be quoted at more than .$3, while the inferior descriptions are a shade lower, and sales very dull. Flour —We have reduced our general quota lions of this article about 25 cents in the barrel; some holders appear willing to soil at a still fur ther reduction; but as there is little coming in, our present rates may be sustained. Corn —The import of the week has been heavy, amountin'? to 32,200 bushels from North Carolina. Three or Tour small cargoes of very superior qua lity brought 40 cents in the early part of the week; but a large portion of the import remained afloat unsold on Saturday, purchasers appearing unwil ling to pay over 38 to 40 cents, while the holders were asking from 40 to 43 cents. The present stock in store and on ship-board is estimated at 100,000 bushels. Oats and peas are without va riation since our last. v ‘ Grocciics, fyc. —The demand for the country during the week has been limited, and the grocers in town buy bul sparingly. The Impuit of sugar* aas been H)2 Idids. from New Orleans only; there has been no public sale of the article; a few small lots of New Orleans have gone off at private sale at $6. in coflee, one sale of aboi.t lOUbags good Luba has been made at 14 1-2 tTiio stock on liana is said not to be large, Ifni holders aie at our quotations. A cargo of 140 hhds fair Havana molasses brought 2t> 1-2 cents. Spirits inferior Fhilad. and Balt, whiskey, low proof, has sold as low as 20 to 27 cents, but fine S York wes tern whiskey brings 28 cents, and good N Orleans 32 to 34. For foreign spirits there is little de mand.-and sales very heavy. Freights. —One ship has been taken up the pre sent week, at 1 1-4 and I 1-2 cts far cotton to Ha vre; and a brig is loading for Greenock at 3-4d per 1; but there is not a single vessel up for Liver pool, or any other port in Great Britain; the last freight obtained for Liverpool was at 1 J-lClhs and 3-4d. Two or three smaller vessels have obtain ed heights of rice to Holland during the week, at Coshillhigs per ton.

Tlie Mill is now in operation near Mr. Bi.akb’s new Rice Mill, in the upper part of Sa vannah, where any one desirous of purchasing may call and examine for himself. This Spell ing power is also better adapted to Sugar Mills, than any animal power which has yet been applied. The impelling power of the above Mill is ob tained by a Circular Rail Road of wood, iron, Ac. on a level foundation of any diameter over which moves a frame work, one pivot in the centre,and propelled by animal power. The great advan tages of it are, that by increasing the diameter of the circle, the power may be increased to any extent. The team may be placed single, double, treble, and so on.
