TH E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. E V 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 who may wish to become fubferibers, are requested 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 impels it, in Savannah, for fifty guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part-, he con trails that this Machine will gin joolbs. of clean cotton per day, with a small 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 use for other purposes, fuchas ticemachir.es, saw 01* grist mills. Mr. Eve will fend over a person competent to set them in 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 20olbs. can be ginned in this machine per day. For further informa tion upon this fubjeft I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the undersigned certi ficate from a refpeftable Cotton Plan ter of this state, who has been an eye 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 moft ref peftable Planters in that country. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who inay 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 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 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 competent, from the calculation he had made, to clean 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 fainple of feed and cotton in pofleflion of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion. During my stay in Nas sau I frequently visited 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 almost any of those used for various purposes in this country ; the conftruftion appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the practice of uftng them.
