A RECEIPT FOR A CRITIC.
TAKF. one dram of Hale sense, a scruple of wit,
A pound ol old learning, of t.vftr a finall hit,
One ounce and one half of Aristotle’s old rules,
A bottle of nonsense glean’d from the schools ;
An handful of wormwood, of onions a load,
The brain* of a heart of a toad ;
The eye of a mole, the nails of a cat,
The teeth of a mouse, the wing* of a hat ;
Thc purfc of old poverty, hunger’s lank jaw,
A gander’s long windpipe, the monkey’s crimp
maw ;
‘J ake of this mixture, each morning a gill,
Yon may ccnfure and backbite as much as you
will. W.M.S.
From the COLUMBIAN MIRROR.
A N-EW CATECHISM.
WHAT i i the chief end of Man ? ‘
To gather up riches, to cheat, all h~ can ;
T< flatter the rich, the poor to despise,
To pamper the fool, to humble the wife.
The rich to afTilf, to do all in his power
To kick the unfortunate, Bill a peg lov/cr;
. To cry up for freedom, to defend it with vigor,
Have slaves without number, and use them
with rigour.
To deal fair with all men, whrn riches attend
them.
To grind down the poor, when there’s none to
defend them;
Tofeduce thefair virgin, to accept his embrace,
To call on her then all the shame and disgrace;
To be Angel without, and Devil within,
To pretend to all virtue, and praffice all fin—
Tins is moll men’s chief cud, or thCir actions
belie them,
And if you don’t believe it, you may e’en go
and try them.

Cotton Ginning.
TH E Subscriber is empowered by
Mr. E VEy of the Bahama Illands
to receive a fubfeription for his Cot!
ton Ginning Machine. Gen.
tlcman of the states of South-Carolin*
and Georgia, who may wilh to become
fubferibers, are requeffed to fend for.
ward their names as loon as convenient
in order that the fubfeription may be
closed. Mr. Eve will engage to deliv
er the Machine, independent of the pow.
er that impels it, in Savannah, for fifty
guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part, he con.
tradtsthat this Machine will gin 3Colbs.
of clean cotton per day, with a small
impelling power either of wind, of wa
ter, or ot horses. This machine in a
tew days, and with a trifling cxpcnce
can be attached to any machine in ule
for other purpoles, fuchas rice machines
law or grist mills. Mr. Eve will fend
over a person competent to let them iu
motion, and fully to explain their sev
eral powers. From fome small expe
riments that have been made upon the
green feed cotton it appears that from
150 to zoolbs. can be ginned in this
machine pier day. For further informs,
t on upon this fubjed I beg lea* e to re
tvr gentlemen to the undcrligned certi
ucate from a respectable Corton Plan
ter of this state, who has been an eyc.
witness 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 melt ref
peitable Planters in that country. Fur
ther particulars will be made known
upon application from any gentleman
who may wilh to become a lubferiber,
Ths machine has met with universal ap
probation in every part of the Weft-
Indies to which it has been sent.
THOMAS SPALDING.
GEGRGIAy Chatham County.
IDO certify, that, being on a vifttfor
my health to New Providence, one
ot the Bahama Islands, I was induced to
make an experiment on Mr. Eve’s Cot
ton Ginning Machine of the green feed
cotton, commonly cultivatedin the back
country of the southern 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 competes,
irom the calculation he had made, to
clean out in goed weather two hundred
weight of clean cotton in thecourfe of a
day. The machine separates the feed
from the cotton by rollers without do
ing any injury to the ftapie, and, from a
iample of feed and cotton in poffefiion
of the fubicriber, any gentleman can be
immediately convinced of the truth of
this opinion. During mv stay in Nas
sau I frequently viflted 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 rtftlmoft any
of these used for various purpples in this
country ; the conftrutftion appears by
no means complex, and every planter oi
consequence in the Bahamas is in the
practice of using them.
