planks, or ratIfl'r what is called in tho Ian-j .thing till the tliirJ year after planting, when gunge of the Indian shipbuilders, Shinbin, be- I the quirks will be about an inch in diameter, jug planks hewn out of die solid beam by the | and then to lav them in at a Slight angle of 10 adze, were sold at tho rate of £5 ldsperload; i to 15 degrees, and at the height of two feet; and pipe staves at £2 2s 9J per thousand.—*• j to ect hi thc-sidc wood every summer with the 'J'he existing administration of tho Island has bill hook; keep the lower part of the quicks again restricted *hc trade, and the timber is now sold 2(k( per cent dearer than when the Island was in the British occupation. Un !?r the Qritiahadministration, some ships wholly built of teak, were constructed by Brit ish ship builders. In the year 1817 it was es timated that the hull of a ship, well fastened and sheathed with copper, could easily be con structed at the. rate of £12 per ton! According to Forbes, a few miles from Cal icut, is a small seaport called Vnpura, on the banks of n river, where vessels are built oi teak and a quantity of the wood exported.— The trees arc felled on the Ghaut mountains, transported to the river by elephants and float ed down in the rainy season! Teak wood, as Thunbcrg reports, brought a considerable price at the Cape of Good Hope, oji account of its great utility in a country where large timber trees arc rare. Dr. Buchanan, on the authority of Mr. War- ra q computed in 1800, that the forests on the benches of Panyaniriver in the southern part of Malabar, befofc mentioned, could supply be tween four and five thousand candies of Teak annually; but that could only be done by a large body of trained elephants, an expense, far beyond the reach of individuals, and only to be undertaken by the company. The can dy of teak timber, when seasoned, measnres lU^’cubic feet. In 1829 there wero imported into Great Britain from tho western coast ol Africa, that is to say, front Sierra Leone, the river Gam- Id.i and the coist between the Gambia and the Mcsurado, 16,015 loads* of teak timber valued at a little upwards of £10,000. In the same yf-ar tho only tther imports of teak were 421 loads from the East India Company’s territo ries and Ceylon, and 463 loads from ports in the Burman Empire. In 1880 I do not find tho quantity of teak imported. Tho amount of duties levied on it was about £ll,000.t— Tho teak timber from Java is said to be better than that of Pegu or the Burman Empire, but inferior to the Malabar. The relative quality of tho African teak I have not been able to learn, hi 1821 some seeds of the teak were received in tho U. S. as is mentioned in the American Farmer. Whether any of them over grew or not is unknown to me. free from brush wood, and the ground about them free from weeds and grass; and at two years from the first splashing, four years from planting,to repeat the operation at the height of four or four and a half feet, when I think the fence will be complete, and require only an annual clipping with the hill hook, and be come a complete barrier to every description of domestic animals. I feel a strong confidence, that a substan tial fence may be grown ■ from the honey or tlircc thorned locust in six, or af most seven years, from the seed, and at a less expense than it will cost to build and maintain any good dead fence for two years. Upon this last point, however, I am not prepared to give precise data. Yet I will hazard a calcula tion.—Twenty plants arc amply sufficient for a rod, of course 1000 quicks will plant 50 rods. Let us assume this as the basis of our calculation. The 1000 quicks, at one or two years old, will cost $5. Tlircc men will easi ly plant them in a day. Allow a day. and a half every year for cleaning and chipping the 50 rods. This will require nine days’ labor in the six years. Estimate the labor at $1 per diem, and it gives for tltis item an aggregate of $12 ; add §5 for the quicks and. it makes a total of $17, or 34 cents per rod, as the ex pense of planting and growing a live perma nent fence,Vproof against the depredations of boys and bulls. Treble this sum, and call the cost one dollar per rod, what a pittance is the expense compared with tho advantages afford ed by a fence of this description, which shall protect your crops front depredation, and in a measure from the bleak winds of winter, and is permanent^in its duration. The lowest price of a post and board fence here is cnc dollar per rod. It will last twelve years, and requires 5 per cent per annum to mend and 1-eep it in repair. 1 have used no extra fence for protecting the hedgo. I plant near an ex isting partition fence, and exclude cattle while the growth is tender. Cattle will seldom cat browse while they have good pasture. J. BUEL. Albany Nursery, Oct. 20, 1831.

Mr. Fessenden—The rain havingdriven me within doors, I sit down to comply with your kvqursf, in regard to the culture of live fences. Your Providence correspondent should take up his three thorned locusts in his seed rows, mid replant, for three reasons:—1. That he may dig and pulverize his ground, an impor tant requisite; 2. That he may size his plants ; 8. That he may insert them at regu lar distances. The two lntter arc essential to the beauty and regular growth of the hedge, und to its after management. My practice is to plant at ten or twelve in ches, generally in a single row, hut sometimes in double parallel rows, one foot apart* where I require a very strong hedge. At two years from plantin':, autumn of 1830,1 cut apart off at the uniform height of two feet. Another part I splashed, or bent and partially cut at that height, and wattled the tops horizontally to the right and left, alternately, of the contig uous plants, but all one way. Last spring I laid in a third parcel when in full foliage. All those have done well, and have made from three to five feet of new wood. I think the laying or splashing is far the preferable way, us It presents a formidable horizontal barrier, which must strengthen with tho growth of the hedge. A fourth parcel, planted three years, ubout an inch in diameter, and 7to 9foothigh, I design to lay this fall. I generally manure the strip I intend for a hedge, and cultivate it with potatoes the sum mer preceding planting. I draw a line where I intend to plant, and throw up a trench of tho requisito depth and breadth for the roots of tho ■quirks, and if the soil below is poor, go a lit tle deeper, and throw in some surface soil at the bottom. The earth is all thrown to the front, and the hack edge ofthe trench is made' perpendicular, that the plants may be set up right in a line. A hoy drops the plants on the line or back side of the trench, and I proceed to plant, placing tho heel of the plant against this side, and gu itring it to a proper depth with |nv hand, when a rr>'»n throws upon the roots a shovel full ef earth, which keeps the quick in irs’ position. This is repeated until the plant- uig is completed. A second hand fills the reach; when the earth is trodden and the uicks are made to present a straight regular :ne. With two men and a boy I have plant- I 1 Oi)0 and 1590 quicks in a day in my ounds. The plan which I have resolved to pursue ~,t after jaunagojneut, is to omit laying or sjla-' r. Chappell. presented a communication from Commissioners of the Gold and Land Lotte ries now drawing, upon the subject of alledged frauds committed in said.drawing which was read, and Mr. Chappell submitted the following resolution, in accordauco with said comumuica- tion. Resolved, Thai the prayer of the Lottery com missioners, asking to be permitted to suspend the drawing of said Lotteries, nud deliver the keys of tho building containing their wheels &c. to thc5clcct committee, appuiuted to examino into alledged frauds in their management; uutill such examination has been completed, and uutill fur ther order be granted, and that said select com mittee be iustructcd to receive and retain said keys uutill further directed—which was agreed to, and tho Secretary directed to carry the same forth with to the House of representatives for their con currence. The Senate resolved itself into a committee of the wholo on tbs bill to place the fractional parte of surveys at preseut iu tho occupancy of the Cfiqrokeo Indians iu the land and gold lottery wheels. _ The President resumed the chair, the bill was reported with ameudmeut by way of substitute providing i«r the sale of said fractions, which was read, whereupon Mr. Wofford moved the original bill of the II. of Representatives, as a substitute to said report of the committee,, and- upon the question to agree to said propose substitute. The Scuuto refused to adopt it by a vote of 42 to 20 Satujidat, Dee. 1. A message was rec'd from the House of Rep resentatives—Messrs. Glascock, Ryan, Burney and Hardeman delivering the same, inipeachiug at the Bar of the Senate Sbadrack Bogan, one of the commissioners of the Gold and Land Lot teries of this State, of mal practice iu office. At four o'clock P. M. Mr, Bogan was arraigned at lb? Bar of the senate, allowed to bo heard by Counsel and recognized iu a bond of 5,000dollars for his appearance at the Bar of the Senate from day to day until the Impeachment is disposed of. Moxday, Dec. 3. The following Resolution was adopted: Resolved, That his Excellency the Governor be, by message of Senate informed of tho communi cation this day received from the House of Rep resentatives and in conformity thereto, ho is re quested to sequester and suspend Shadrack Bo gan. one of t/ic land lottery commissioners from every office which he may dotr hold by authority of this State until ho shall answer to such charges dr articles of impeachment as'the House of Rep resentatives shall exhibit against him aiid lie ho thorefrom duly delivered and discharged by judg ment of the Senate. The report of the committee requiring Exe 1 enters and Testamentary Guardians to give secu rity, was laid on tho table for the remainder of the session. The following communication was received IVom tho Governor. Executive Department, Ga. ) Milledgerillc, Dec. a, 1632 $ To the Senate, Gentlemen—I have received by your committee yourcommunicatiuu informing me of the proceed, ings of tho House of Representatives, in relation to tho Impeachment of Shadrack Bogan, oue of the lottery commissioners, and requesting jn e tp suspend his official prerogative as a caminissiouer aforesaid. Your request will be promptly compli ed with, and the official functions of Mr. Bogan su«peudcd until further advice of your proceed ings. WILSON LUMPKIN. Executive Department, Ga. Millcdgcville, Dec. 3. 1832. To the General Assembly note in session. Fellow-Citizens:—Thedevelopemcnts recently made tending to impress the publick with the belief, that improprieties and frauds to some ex tent, have been committed by some of the Agents engaged in the management of the Lotteries uow iu progress, induces me to submit to the Legisla ture such views upon the subject as I deem to be important to tho public interest. Among the va rious difficult and complicated duties which have devolved on me in carrying into effect tho lottery laws, 1 was at an early day impressed with the danger aud embarrassments which might arise from the fact of the laws not having provided any adequate pains and penalties to be indicted upon the agents intrusted with the management of this important business, provided they should prove recreant to tho public interest. Under the pro vision* of the law, the Lottery Comqnssioumai’o, neither buder the solemnities of an oath, nrfr tho obligations of a bond, to perform the duties en joined on tbem;uor is the slightest authority giv en to the Executive to check, suspend or con- tr< i! their operations even when suspected of im propriety. The various clerks engaged iu this business, although au indispensable appendage, are not eveu known to tho Law, or directly ame nable to any responsible crcateing power. Irre sponsible as the commissioners were, they have been permitted to select their own clerks, with the view of impressing them with full force of their obligations to tho public, for the correctness of every entry aud transaction iu relation to the lotteries.—Should the investigation now in pro gress before tho Legislature result in tho convic tion of the guilt of any one, or more of the persons to whom this iulCTcsung and delicate public trust has boon confided, we should no longer confide alone iu those high and honorable moral princi ples, which are tho inmates of tho breast of honest men alone. Wc should consider and provide a- gainst the frailties of poor human nature as it is found to exist. A few weeks more will probably close the pre sent session of the Legislature, and yet a great aud interesting portion of the Lotteries will refaain to be completed. In thefl:bseneb sYthC Legislature, power should be vested some tVfcere to insure to itie people au honest and faithful completion of this bnsinesr. 'No office under our Government can or shb'uld be considered iluf vested right of any citizen, longer than the public interest demands such investment. The abuse of au official trust, like the one under consideration cannot bo slumbered over; prompt correction is indispens able to the dearest rights and interest of the peo ple. -1 can discover nothing in our constitution or laws incompatible with the right of the Legis lature to secure to tho people the honest aud faith ful discharge of all official duties, which may de volve upon the officcrsaud agents of the govern ment, ofevery grade nud cur.ditiou. It is the daily practice of the Legislature to euactlaws requiring additional duties to he performed by various offi cers of the Government—and why may not furthei duties which the public interest requires be exact ed from the agents who are superintending the Ldttcries ? ' And what Cad bo more preposterous than to suppose that the agents may not be dis posed of in ilto most summary way, under.the di rection of the same power which created tlicnl, whenever tho public imereti shill demand it? WILSON LUMPKIN. A message was announced from tho House of Representatives, and the committee oil tho part of tho Houso to prefer articles of impeachment, and to mairage the same oil the part of tho State before tho high Court of Impeachment in the case of Shadrack Bogan—appeared and prefered ar ticles of impeachment against said Bogau,— Whereupon the Senate formed themselves in to a high court of impeachment^ for the trial of Shadrack Bogah—Proclamation of which tvaS declared by the Messenger.

Plan of a Southern "Convention. Art. 1. The State of Georgia invites the States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Caro lina, Alabama, Tennessee, and Mississippi, to is in danger, and the signs of the times render it problematical whether it may be the will of Heav en that we shall ever have another presidential e- lection, under the present constitution of the Uni ted States. I pretend to no right to control the press in the election of its topics. But 1 may rightfully desire to have it understood that, at such a rime as this, and under the circumstances of public anxiety and alarm that surround us, 1 take no pleasure, but the reverse, in seeing my name the renewed subject of newspaper discus sion, for a purpose so remote and contingent. I am sensible of the favorable regard which, I have no doubt, prompted your article, and grateful for it.-—But I should lose all self-respect if, at such a time and under such circumstances, 1 could be thinking of myself, or sanction, by my silence, what seems to me so very unseasonable an obiru- sion of my name on the consideration of the pub lic.

It is with sincere pleasure wc congratulate our. readers on the sassage of Mr. Ryan's Resolutions, by the House of Representatives. Mr. Bates offered the following additional Reso lution, Which was carried by a vote of 102 to 51— ‘'Resolved, That we abhor the doctrine of Nul lification, as neither a peaceful nor constitutional remedy; but oi the contrary, tis tending to civil commotion and disunion ; and while we deplore the rash and revolutionary measures recently adop ted by a Convention of the people of South Caro lina, we deem it a paramount duly to warn our fcllow-ti'.izeas against adopting her mischievous policy.” RYAN’S RESOLUTIONS. Whereas the Tariff Law of tho last Session of Cougress has not satisfied the just expectation of the people of the Southern States.—Whereas the recent attempts to provide a remedy for the evils which we suffer from the Protective System, by a Conveut;nn, not only will probably be abortive, but is likely, if persisted iu materially, to dis turb tho public harmony and lesson' the moral force of the State. And whereas, the Resolu tions adopted ity the Delegates of a minority of the People, aud which are about to he submitted to the State for ratification, are in several respects of a limit objectionable character, it becomes tho duty of those who are the unquestionable repre- 'seutatives of tlie people of Georgia, to interpose, for tho purpose of truuqnilizing the public mind, and concentrating the public will, by the recom mendation of a course of policy which they trust will obtain the general approbation of the com munity—Therefore, Resolved, That if a Southern Convention bo desirable, it is expedient for the State of Georgia to iuvite the 8 tales of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, and Mis sissippi, to concur with her iu electiug Delegates to a Southern Coavcotiodf which shall take into ventiou which shall take iuto consideration, the Tariff System of tho General Government, and devise and recommend the most effectual and proper mode of obtaining relief From the‘evils of that system. Art. 2. She proposes that eacii invited Slate shall send to the Convention a number of Dele gates equal to the number of Senators and Rep resentatives to which such State is entitled iu the Congress of the United States. Art, 3. Tho Convention shall not take place unless five States of the six, which it is proposed to invito, assent to tho proposal. Art. 4. The tune and place of assembling the proposed Convention, shall be arranged and de termined by correspondence among those who. shall bo duly authorized by the States asscutiug to this plan. Art. 5. The Governor of this State is author ised and desired to commuuicate the iilvitatien nud proposals coutaiUcd in the four preceding ar ticles, to the Governors of the other States above- mentiotlcd, with a request thnt they be made known to tho people of those States respective ly- He is also authorised and desired to arrange liy correspondence, the time and placo of asscra-. bling the proposed Convention, comfprroably to tho provision of the fourth article. -Arf.G. When the time and. place for the meet ing of said Convention are determined, tho Gov ernor of this State is authorised aud desired to issue his proclamation, with timely notice, for an election of cloven delegates by general ticket, to represent tile State in said Convention, the elec tion to be regulated by the same principles as those which govern the elections of members of Congress. It is also desired and expected, that tho Legislature of this State, will make such-pro vision as may bo necessary, for carrying more completely and readily iuto c'ffcct t|ie above plan, if it should ha adopted as proposed. ... . . ’ Art. 7. If the Delegates assembled in a South- fern Convention^according to the above plan, should agree on a course of proceeding which they recemmend to the States represented, the Governor of this Stato is authorized and desired to issite a proclamation, with timely notico for an election of Delegates to a State Convention, de claring the time and place at which it shall as semble. Such Convention shall .consist of Dele gates from every county, equal in number to that of its members in the House of Representatives ofthis State; and the elections of said Delegates shall be regulated by the same principles and nu- tfaedficateil By the same forms as elections for members of the General. Assembly. To the State Coriventiqn thus elected* the recommend ations of tho Southern Convention shall he sub mitted. If tho same are approved by the State Convention, they shall then be referied to the people for final ratification iti such manner as may be prescribed by Said convention; find if they are ratified by the majority of those jiersons en titled to vote for members of the General Assem bly, tho State Convention shall proclailil.tUat the said, recommendations, beingregularly .adopt- cd, express tho will of the people of Geoigia,.and shall also provide the mode of giving permanent and authentic record to such ratification. Resolved, That if the above plau of a southern Convention is adopted bv the votes of a majority of tho ettzens ofthis State, given in the manner thereiu described, it will be the right and duty of the different functionaries of the State Government to afford all necessary aid in facilitating its exc- buUon. RcsolvoJ, That wo earnestly advise our fellow- citizens, not to give their votes pn the Resolu tions of tho convention recently adjourned, as therein proposed. That convention manifestly consisted of Delegates from a minority of the peo ple ; yet they Submit their acts for ratification to the whole people according 'to a form contrived by thenisitves, through the agency of persons ap pointed by themselves, while they the vise Ives re main ffnai judges of the ratification proposed. To sanction such a procedure would open a door for the grosscstimpositiou, would establish au alarm- . iug precedent for nsuetping the rights of tho ma jority, and might ultimately expose us to fill the horrors pf discord and anarchy. . . p Resolved, That while wo would provide a cor rective for tho possible continuance of those evils of which we have so much reason to complain, wc still, hope that tho regular operations of the General Government, will supersede the necessi ty of any extraordinary measures on tho part of the Southern People; and that wo recognize the happiest augury of better things, iu the growing certainty of the reflection of tile illustrious patri ot Audrcw Jackson. stead, therefore, ofopening a new source of ex citement by the premature discussion of the sub ject of the next election, I am more disposed to unite in an endeavor to shut up those other foun tains that are already sending out their bitter wa ters so freely among us, and to see if it be not pos sible to bring back something like that state of great and disinterested love of country and frater nal concord, tn which the war of the. revolution left us; atld the fedeial constitution found us. It was that auspicious state of things that made the introduction of free government so easy;', and its action hitherto so prosperous. I indulge in..no romantic expectation of the return of that golden age. But, unless something effectual can be done to allay the agitation that has already arisen, and bring our people to a kinder state of fceliDg and more harmonious action, it requires no great stretch of politifeal sagacity to see that our institu tions will rush to speedy ruin; At such a time, and in such astate of things, I must be excuaed from any agency, express or ta cit, in the premature agitation of the question the next election of President.

To the Editor of the Providence American. Sir—The National Intelligencer of the lCth ip- starit, tvhir.h has just been handed to me at this place, informs me that my name has been present ed in your paper in reference to the election of President in 183C—7. It is proper, I think, that I should, without delay, place my own views of the s abject before you, and request that they may. be made public for the information of those who may .ake an interest in them. I consider the no mination which I accepted as having been finally disposed of by the recent election; and tho senti ment of deference which, under the circumstances of the case, led me to yield my own wishes to those of a portion of my fellow citizens in assent ing to that nomination, now bindi me with increa sed obligation to acquiesce in the decision of the whole which has been made upon it.—The ques tion of renominatinn is a new question, on which 1 may expect to be heard, if it should be thought expedient to make it, at the time proper for its con sideration. That lime, 1 think, is not the preseut. The election is too far off, and the future too en tirely unknowD, to permit me to judge of what'it may. hereafter, be proper to do. Should the question ever be put for my decis ion, 1 shall answer it according to my sense of my duty ns a citizen of the United States.—I know of no legitimate purpose of such a nomination, but the election of a President for the common good and happiness of the country. In my former let ter of acceptance, 1 said distinctly that I could ne ver consent to be the President of a party, and the same sentiment will continue to influence me in ahy future decision I may be called to make upon this subject. Meantime, there are other subjects of fearful magnitude that press them selves on the immediate attention of the patriot, and-demand alt his solicitude.
