Cotton Ginning.
TH E Subscriber is empowered by
Mr. E V E, of the Bahama Islands,
to receive a fubfeription for his Cot
ton Ginning Machine. Gen
tleman of the states of South-Carolina
ana Georgia, who may wiff to become
fubferibers, are requested to fend for
ward their names as loon as convenient,
in order that the fubfeription may be
elofed. Mr. Eve wiil engage to deliv
er the Machine, independent of the powd
er that impels it, in Savannah, for fifty
guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part, he con
tracts that this Machine wili gin 30olbs.
of clean cotton per day, with a small
impelling power either of wind, of wa
ter, or of horles. This machine in a
fpw days, and with a trifling expence,
can be attached to any machine in uie
for other purposes, fuchas rice machines,
saw or grist mills. Mr. Eve will fend
over a .person competent to set them in
motion, and fully to explain their feV
eral powers. From fome small expe
riments that have been made upon the
green feed cotton it appears that from
150 to 20olbs. can be ginned in this
machine per day. For further informa
tion upon this fubjeft I beg leave to re
fer gentleinep to the underflgried certi
ficate from a refpettabls Cotton Plan
ter of this ft ate, who lias been an eye
witnels of the execution done by this
machine, and to various certificates that
have come out at different times in the
Bahama papers, signed by the moft rel
pe&able Planters in that country. Fur
ther particulars will be made known
upon application from any gentleman
who may wilh to become a fubferiber.
Ths machine has met with uni venal ap
probation in every part of the Weft-
Indies to which it has been sent.
THOMAS SPALDING.
GEORGIA, Chatham County.
IDO certify, that, being on a visit for
my health to New Providence, one
of the Bahama Islands, I was induced to
make an experiment on Mr. Eve’s Cot
ton Ginning Machine of the green feed
Cotton, commonly cultivated in the back
country of the foutlfern states, and sent
to Savannah for a small quantity there
of, which on experiment I found to an
swer. The rainy season setting in a
bout the time I received the cotton the
whole was not ginned) but Mr. Eve as
sured me his machine was competent,
from the calcdlatioti he had made, to
clean out in good utather two hundred
weight of clean cotton in the course of a
day. The machine separates the feed
from the cotton by rollers without do
ing any injury to the staple, and, from a
sample of feed and cotton in poffeflion
of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be
immediately eonvinced of the truth of
this opinion. During my flay in Nas
sau I frequently vifued Mr. Eve’s ma
chine Which was impelled by wind, and
never saw more than two people attend
ing the fame, one a grown person and
the other a small boy. This machine
is capable of being attached to altnoft any
ol those used for various purposes in this
country ; the conftru&ton appears by
no means complex, and every planter of
consequence in the Bahamas is in the
practice of uftng them.
