Male and Female Plants — Madura. — A res
pected correspondent mentions a cur.out tact re
lative to producing both male and female } ian.a
from a female dhecious tree, by mean# of cut
tings. lie says the maclura tree,nowproducing
male flowers in the garden of the late Mr. Mc-
Mahon, of Philadelphia, and the one he sold to
Gen. Forman of (’ceil < - o. Md. were both raised
from .cuttings taken tium a female tree, Mr.
McMahon’s original trees all proved to be fe
males, and from them he took the cuttings. But
mav not there be some error in the classifies*ion
of the maclura t<nd some other trees, now con
sidered dure whs ? London, and nome other bo
tanists, locate the maclura and the morns in
monatcia, and from w hat we have seen of the lat
ter we are inclined to think them correct. e
know of several individual mulberry trees that
hear perfect s-eds, that are not in the neighbor
hood ufauv other. Furthermore, wo know that a
mulberry tree will be ar imperfect Heeds one year
and perfect seeds another. \\ e also know, that
the female maclura h ars fruit, to ah appearance
perfect, without the assistance of a male tree;
end we believe it is not common with dioecious
female plants to boar fruit and seed vessels, un
less the v arc enabled to supply them wiih seeds.
The maclura tree with which we are acquaint
ed, regularly bears fruit; but it is certain that
our season is not long enough for iis perfection,
as it is uniformly overtaken by hard frost while
in a growing s ate. May it not then be con
sidered probable that the maclura is a mwuzdcma
mid not a dioecious plant, and that this accounts
for the fact, that the trees ca 1 led male were raised
by cuttings from those* supposed to be female I
Young monoecious plants, it is well known, are
often barren. Mulberry trues nro often barren
for the first ten or fif'e n years, nrvi are then
©ailed males; but their subsequent fruitfulness
corrects the error. The fact, therefore, that
cuttings from a female maclurn, produced male
plants, will induce us to consider the tree monoe
cious at least till better advised.
There is an instance of error very extensive
relative to male and female pirn’s. It is that
there arc male an ! f ■male plants in the family
of strawberries. Some kinds of hautbois par
ticularly, are considered dioecious, and we ot cn
hear gardeners say they plant so many male
plants to such a proportion of females. This is
pretty clearly a popular error. Among all the
varieties of the strawberry there are always
more or leas of barren plants, but these, are not
necessary to the fructification of the others; but
on the contrary, should bodes royed, for they
multiply much more abundantly than fruitful
plants, and will soon predominate if left growing.
The strawberry clearly belongs to the 1 ‘2th cia.<s
—having more titan twelve s’amens, or male
Organs, and many s‘yK s or female organs, in the
same flower. All plants, therefore, that bear
fruit, are supplied with the proper number of
Stamens in the same flower with the styles; but
in those which arc barren, the stamens arc so
numerous that the styles appear to he smother
od, or are probably superseded by them : tfcey
•re also of inordinate length, and can thus bo
detected when the plants are in flower.

Durable Fen:-:. —Deacon Winslow Marsion,
b«« on his farm a kind of fence, which for du
rability and beauty can hardly be exceeded. On
each side of the road adjacent his dwelling, are
rows of large button-wood trees, set 10 or l*i
feet asunder. Into those, when young, cedar
rails were inserted as into common posts. As
the trees increased m size, the wood formed
closely around the ends of the rail#, and firmly
secured them in their places. \Vc have no
■where else seen this experiment tried on so large
« scale. It is certainly a durable and cheap
fence, because it will require no repairs at least
for one generation, and is moreover cons’antly
increasing in value. Were our roads lined with
this kind offl r.ee, it would add not a little t > the
beauty of the country and the comfort of the tra
veller.

MERC ER IS ST IT U TE.
Mercer Institute, for combining study and
JL manual labour, will go into operation on die 2d.
Monday in January next, under the direction of the Rev.
B. M. Sanders.
The principal object of the Institution is die education
of pious youngmen, who are called to the Gospel Minist
ry, and have been licensed by the church to which t.icy
belong, and have a good report ol diem that are without,
—and particularly those who are indigent —and such are
affectionately invited to bring their testimonials and avail
themselves gratuitously ot the advantages ot the Insti
tution.—But as vve have no reason to believe that this
class oi pupils will fill up the school; it will receive, in
addition,as many youngmen of good moral character, as
can be provided for, irrespective of religious sentiments.
The Committee are of opinion that, from the limited
state of its present accommodations, they will not be
able to receive more than 30 to board on the premises the
first Term. As fast, as our friends may find themselves
well pleased with the experiment vve may make, as m
contribute to our means, vve design to enlarge our ac
commodations for students, and open wider our doors
for them. All the branches ot science, usually taught
in grammar schools, will be taught in this Institution.
No student will be received tor less than one year the
year will be divided into two terms —the first of 6 months,
from the 2d. Monday in January, to the 3d. in July, the
second of 5 months, from the 3d. Monday in July to the
3d. Ml nday in December.
Board, for all over 16 years of age, wilt be 830 .or
the. scholastic year, and §6 tor washing ; those undei 16.
at $5 per month, having a reasonable deduction lor their
labor—each student furnishing his own bod and candles.
For want of funds, board and tuition will be requiretijn
advance, to be paid to the steward, i uition wnl be §9
lor the first term, to ail engaged in reading, writing,
arithmetic, grammar, geography and history.—All the
higher branches of science and the languages, will be
taught for §ls the first term —the second m proportion.
Each student will be required to labor 3 hours each
day, five and a halt days in the week. The time and
kind of labor will be directed by the steward, under the
control of the Trustees ; and each student will bo expect
ed to conform strictly to the regulations oi the Institution.
It will he expedient for each student to have coarse
clothes to work in ; and it is desired that wearing
apparel of all should be plain and cheap, that tncre may
be as little distinction as possible, and that the principle
of economy may be fully carried into every department
of the Institution. As our Institution is in its infancy
and in want ot every thing, any uselul boon, to and in
forming a library, end any implemen tor labor, or any
suitable article of furniture, that any friend may find it
convenient to contribute, will be thmkmlly received.

TO THE PUBLIC.
|T HAVE heretofore declined making public
Jr, statement in regard to my connexion with tne Bank
of Macon, and did intend to have remained silent on
that subject until the meeting of the legislature, when
it was my intention to solicit the appointment ot a com
mittce from that body to examine into its affairs, and re
port the cause of its failure. But learning that various,
false, and malicious rumors are in circulation, in differ
ent parts of the country, which are calculated to do me
great injustice, I have deemed it proper and due to my
self thus publicly to correct them.
One charge that I understand has gained some cur
rency in th(T country, is, that there are large amounts of
the Bills of the B ink of Macon in circulation that does
not appear on the Books ot the Bank. To this, I pre
sume, it will bf sufficient to say, that if there is one
Bill, or any amount ot Bills, bearing rny signature as
Cashier, or issued while I was in that slice, tuat does
not appear fairly set-forth on the Books of ihc Bank,
the holders or owners thereof may consider me and my
securities liable and bound tor their redemption and they
shall be promptly paid on presentation ; and that every
man may see whether his Bills have been properly en.
tered or not, I suggest that the Register ot the Bills
regularly issued by the Bank he deposited in oine pub
lic office where every' Bill bolder may call and examine
for himself. But thev will find none such in circulation.
One other charge is, that I have sold, made over and
passed out of my possession all my property, with a
view of evading or securing it from any liabilities that
might be created against me on account of the Bank.
To this, I can give a flat contradiction. I have not on
that account, sold one dollar’s worth oi any' thing. I
have now as much as I ever possessed, which is entire
ly free from any incumbrance whatever; and I have
nothing more than the lair proceeds of an honorable bu
siness. All I possess is subject and will remain so, to
any claims that can be established against me on account
of the Bank or any thine else. And I myself am at my
place, and have been, and shall continue to be, ready to
be found at any time, by' any person, or upon any occa
sion.
I resigned the office of Cashier of the Bank ot Ma
con in the month of February last, since which time I
have had no connexion, agency, influence, or control of
its affairs, I then considered its bills pcrtectly good, and
its means were such as to justify' that belief—that every
thing belonging to the Bank was fairly turned over by
me to my successor, L. Atkinson, Esq. will be seen by
reference to his receipt, a copy of which is here annex,
ed, and a list of the papers thitn running to maturity in
the Bank can be seen at my office and will shew for
themselves ; and that the proprietor and managers of the
Bank considered it perfectly' good for several months
after I left it, there is abundant proof in their own state
ments made at various times and places.
The very short period betore the meeting of the le
gislature, (when I shall endeavor to have the affairs of
the Bank fully investigated.) prevents me now trom men.
tinning such facts, and abuses as I understand do exist,
but which I have no doubt will be made appear by the
proper authorities, and until all the tacts are properly
made known, I beg the indulgence of the community to
suspend any unfavourable impressions. Fur while Ido
not seek, or wish to evade any just responsibilities on
that account, I am equally unwilling to bear the burthen
of other persons acts.

“ Lege ioiu.n, sci vis scire totznn." —“ Read all, it you
would know all.”
s fl HE people of Georgia are much in want of a me-
A dium of intelligence which will promptly transmit
to them the “Proceedings” oftheir Legislature. We
are not only generally, but individually concerned in all
acts Oi legislation, because these acts involve personal
as well as political rights, between which there ex
ists a most intimate connexion. It is the interest then,
of every man in tiie community to he timely acquainted
with tiie action of our representatives upon these rights.
This is a desideratum— to supply which the Journal is
intended. At the present we labor under much incon
venience lor the want of it. For near, and sometimes
more than three months after tiie expiration oi the Ses
sion, the Laws of the State, with a few exceptions, are
as a “ sealed Book” to the great mass ot tiie people ; and
frequently, such are the injurious effects produced by
this delay, that men have been known, who, in obe
dience to v. preceding, have actually violated a subse
quent law which had been reversed or modified—not
knowing that a ?teic had been submitted lor an old law.
In addition to the entire proceedings of the Legisla
ture, the Journal and Historv, will contain the gener
al intelligence of the day, and its interest will be in
creased by faithful reports of the transactions of the
important Redress Convention of Georgia, which con
templates sitting in Milledgeville, the ensuing session.
The Debates in the Convention, as well as those in the
Legislature, will be regularly and correctly reported:
for which purpose arrangements are making with a ca
pable and experienced Stenographer.
The Journal and History or the Times, will be pub
fished daily, and the Legislative and Conventional Pro
ceedings ot each day laid in exlenso before the puolic on
the subsequent morning, and immediately transmitted
to any part of the State to which the paper may be or
dered.
The large and interesting mass of information which
this Publication will contain, and the great expense
which must be incurred to carry it into operation will
require a liberal patronage, and such a patronage the
editor flatters himself will be extended to him.
It is unnecessary to enlarge on the convenience and
important utility of such a publication to members of the
Legislature, in enabling them to ascertain immediately
the precise state of any measure in which they are in
terested and to keep their constituents advised of the
progress of public business, without the abstraction of
time and attention from their special duties, expended
in lette r writing.
Terms. — The Journal and History of the Times will
be publised daily with a new type, by machinery, to be
expressly procured for the purpose and on good paper,
and will be put to subscribers at the price ot Five Dol
lars per session, payable on the reception ol the first
number.
Jl/’ Those to whom subscription lists will be sent are
respectfully asked to lend their exertions and influence
to the undertaking, and to make a return of any subscri
bers which may be obtained, by the lOtA day oj Octo
ber. They are particularly requested to do so, that the
Editor may be enabled to make the proper arrangements,
and to furnish promptly the first numbers to each sub
scriber.

will greatly improve the latter. The Advertiser shall
lack for none of that attention, which the editor flatters
himself has entitled it to the kind and cheering patron
age which has been so liberally extended to it.
The Advertiser will continue to be published weekly
in the summer and tri-weekly in the winter, at the
price of Five Dollars per annum, payable in advance.
Land and Gold Region Lints of the Drawing.- the
addition to the Legislative and Conventional Proceed

Drawing of the Land and Gold Lottery Regions, which
will commence, it is presumed, about tiie commencement
of the sitting of the Legislature. Should the Lottery
however have commenced its drawing previous to that
period, such days as may have drawn, will also be pub

Lists from beginning to end.
O’ The fraternity are respectfully asked to publish
the above, which, as heretofore, will be reciprocated ;

J3_ begs leave to state, that this Institution is full and-in
a flourishing condition. He is convinced by-the experi
ment that schools of this kind will succeed and prosper.
Some difficulties were anticipated i om the novelty ol
the thing and from a want of firmness in parents ; but it
they will do their duty, no fears need be entertained about
the success and usefulness of such establishments.
Mr. Enos B. Myer, educated in a school of this kind,
(and who conducted this during the Principal’s absence
to New-York) is engaged as a permanent assistant : on
account of this arrangement, eight more students may be
admitted after Ist of July, the commencement of the se
cond term. By this date, more commodious buildings
will be arected.
The terms and regulations are as heretofore, viz ;
1. The course of studies to occupy three years.
2. Each student to labor three hours per day.
3. Board, washing and tuition for Ist year, §9O ; for
the 2d §75; for the 3d §SO. Payment half yearly in

There will be a short vacation of about a week com
mencing on the 23d July. The public examination will
be held early in November, of which due notice will be
given and then a vacation till January.

OF THE
IIATI -T'SVIF!LI7 ADVOCATE.
OT HE Undersigned design, as early as a sufficient
Jil. number of subscribers can be obtained, to publish
in the town of Hawkinsville, Pulaski county, Georgia, a
paper under the above title.
In the whole Southern Circuit, although it extends over
far more territory than any other in the State, there* is
not printed a single paper. Surely this Circuit has not
resolved to be behind every other in the -State, in th«
march of improvement! While, then, the citizens of
every other Circuit, have the pleasure of receiving by
each mail, papers printed within their limits, may we
not, with reason, indulge the sanguine expectation, that
our citizens, as also those of other Circuits, (to who»
papers they contribute a liberal patronage) will bound,
fully aid in the support of this attempt to establish a pa.
per in this place, and contribute much to its circulation!
Hawkinsville has been so rapid in its growth, and has
already risen to so much importance, in a commercial
points of view, as now to render it the most importin',
town in the Southern Circuit. What place, then, could
or would be more suitable for the establishing and sup.
porting a paper ?
It has become the fashion, for those who make propo.
sals for editing a paper, to declare their political creed ;
that all may know by their colours, on which side they
will fight. Tiie undersigned, without censuring sucii
example, will follow it in part only. They, therefore,
declare themselves to he native Georgians, A. that while
they design to steer clear of extremes, they no less for.
vently hope to be ever found on the side of the peo.
pie, the true democracy of the State. Prudence
might require them to stop here : but they feel con
strained to go farther. The various and momentous
questions, which agitato to the very centre, our po
litical connexion as sovereign States, and the fear,
ful encroachments of the Uniied States’ Government
(more especially as manifested by the late decision of
its Supreme Court,) which like some dreadful yawning
gulph, threaten the most awful and ruinous consequences,
demand of every true pairiot and advocate of hiscoun.
try, to be at his post, and like the faithful watchman,
to tell when all’s well, or every hope is past. With what
disinterestedness and deep devotedness have not the
Southern people ever been attached to a just and equil
able union of the States ? How many concessions, and
what convincing sacrifices have they not made, and will
they not even yet make, as peace offerings upon the al
tar of social harmony ! But it has been justly said,
lhat a cold, calculating, selfish policy, like the Israelites’
rod, is swallowing up every better feeling, and calling
upon all to fall down and worship this “golden image,”
as he only true and living Diety. Whatever may be the
course of others, while the undersigned truly hope, that
our excellent Constitution, our once happy Union, and
the high destiny to which, under happy auspices, it may
aspire, will not merely we like some golden age, as a song
in the memory of posterity; they trust in the fervor of
their hearts to be found ever contributing their poor
and humble mite to resist encroachment, in whatever
shape it may come, and oppression under whatever to
lors disguised, till every hope, shall expire in the last
entrenchment oftheir country.
Perhaps they ought to avow, their deep devotion to
the political principles of Washington and Jefferson,
and the unblemished principles of those who havo
been an ornament and glory to their country ; and mom
especially their cordial and warm support of the Her#
who has gathered never dying laurels, both in the field
and in the cabinet. But profi ssions alone are vain. The
undersigned hope to bt ringed of by their acts.
As to the politics of the State, amid chance or
change, or the violence and heat of party dissentione,
they faithfully promise with calmness and coolness, to
discuss the measures of each and every j»,irty, in the
spirit of candor. And whether praise or censure be their
object, they will never follow any other light but that of
iruth—they will never have any other guide, but that
of honor. With these in view, they will hold as dust
in the balance any unjust or unmeaning censure.
No inconsiderable portion of their paper shall be de
voted to general literature, with whatever may im
prove, adorn or refine the mind ; and more especially
to Agriculture ; on the successful improvement in which,
freed from burdensome taxation, mainly depend the
happiness, prosperity and glorv of the Southern country.
THE HAWKINSVILLE ADVOCATE will be pub
lished weekly at Three Dollars per annum, if paid in ad
vance ; or Three Dollars and Fifty Cents at the end of
