Savannah, March 4 th, 1 796. For SALE at this OFFICE : Blank Bills of Exchange, Bills of Lading and Mamie its. Cotton Ginning. T’’ H E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. E F E, of the Bahama I Hands, to receive a fubfeription for his Cot ton Ginning Machine. Gen tleman of the states of South-Carolina and Georgia, who may wish to become fubferibers, are requeued to fend for ward their names as soon 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 impeHit, in Savannah, for fifty guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part, he con tracts that this Machine will gin joolbs. of clean cotton per day, with a final i impelling power either of wind, of wa ter, or of horses. This machine in a few days, and with a trifling expence, can be attached to any machine in ule for other purposes, such as rice machines, favv or grist mills. Mr. Eve will lend over a person competent to set them in motion, and fully to explain their sev eral powers. From feme small expe riments that have been made upon the green feed cotton it appears that from 150 to 20olbs. can he ginned in this machine per day. For further inxorrna tion upon this lubjeft I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the underlined certi ficate from a refpeftable Cotton Plan ter of this state, who has been an evc witnefs 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 molt ref peftable Planters in that country-. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who may wish to become a fubferiber. Ths machine has met with universal 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 I Hands, 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 southern Hates, 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 .af fix red me his machine was competent, from the calculation he had made, to clears out in good weather 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 poffcffbn of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth cf this opinion. During my ltay in Nas sau I frequently viiited Mr. Eve’s ma chine which was impelled by wind, and never favv more than two people attend ing the fame, one a grown person and the other a small boy. Tins machine is capable of being attached to almost any of thofc used for various purposes in this country ; the conftruft'on appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the praftice of ufmg them.
