The TRIUMPH or REASON.
A NEW SOS C.
(from n nets Engltjh publication, caled ‘'Poli
tics for the People, or, a balmagundyjor Hioine. )
IN these dilall’rou* dismal day* of riot, law,
and libel,
When men ulmoft fufpeft the right they have
to read the Bible ;
I’ll venture'here to ling ike truth, may you ap
prove the (train,
And as the way to please you moll, I’ll strive
to give you Paine.
There was a man whpff" name was Paine, a
man *>! common Jenfe,
Who came from Philadelphia here, his know
ledge to di'p-nl ;
He prov’d.'thtt rum had rqual rights, asequal
Tons of iiHtur *,
Deriv’d by umwrfal grant, from Heaven's
JLro future.
He taught, that on thr people’s will all law
ful! pow’r drp-rid'-d,
That governors wer- lor tne good of ih’ gov
erned infiided ;
And many otlyr wHOlelome truths, all form’d
orfre-ifon’s pi art.
lie wrote Aviyluu a li tie book, and call’d it
Riohts or Man
The nation soon approv’d the book, they
r-.id and uuderltood it,
But certain rogues, whom I name not, with
jealous alp’ct view’d it;
And niinv a courtly Jycophint its page with
terror traces,
For if each maniho.uld have his right, the knaves
wouid lole their places.
TiicnßtLLY Pi tt he rais’d a cry, aery of
coni’-rnation,
Which roits’d the rogui/h and through
oui Ihe British nation,
That church and line wore tumbling down,
and ruin hov r’d o’er us,
The lords a.id parsons ffr tch’d their throats,
and join’d .he horrid chorus.
Like Quixote, that renowned Knight, so
fam’d in Spanilh tale,
And, fu l l as mad. it-pp’d Edmund forth,
equipt in couitly mail ;
He from >ho ir -as’ry took a fpcar, ’tvvas tipt
with goid, and pointed,
And on his arm he bore a Ihieid, giv’ll by the
Lord’s anointed.
Thus arm’d with pow’r he thought divine, he
ruffl’d into the-iiattle,
And on the little Haymaker, moll furioufly
did rattle;
lie threw ’.is dar s fub’im” about, and rav’d
of plots and trtafon ;
But Freedom’s c‘ a pion Hood unhurt, for he
was dad in reason.
When Courtiers found his arguments
could not be overtur’d,
They cunningly con luded, he, by proxy,
should be bunt’d :
In rv’ry town thro’ this good realm, poor
Paine was executed,
AoJ what their logic could not reach, the fag
got has conluitd.
Ttio’ buried with the dead he lies, by legal
undertakers.
His (pint Hill pervades the land, and never
v.'ill lot fake us:
We’ll drink a bumper o'er his tomb, a tribute
of aftetl ton,
And w.lh the > ping Richts of Man a
_ fpeeuy refurre'etion.

IDO certify, that, being on a vifitfor
my health to New Providence, one
of the Bahama I (lands, I was induced to
make an experiment on Mr. Eve s Cot
ton Ginning Machine of the green feed
cotton, cofnmonly culti. atedin tne back
country ot the southern dates, and fern
to Savannah for a small quantity there
of, which on experiment I found to an
swer. The rainy season letting in a
bout the time 1 received the cotton the
whole was not ginned, but Mr. Eve lo
ured me his machine was competent,
rrorn the calculation Pc had made, t
clean out in good weather two huncirc.
weight of clean cotton in the courfc ol a
lay. The machine separates the fc..
from the cotton by rollers without do
ing any injury to the ttupic, and, trom ;
‘'ample of feed and cotton in poflellioi
of the fu’ofafiber, anv gentleman can b
immediattfiy con inccd of the truth ot
this opinion. During mv flay in Nai
fau I irequently viiitc.i Mr. Eve’s ma
chine which was impeded by wind, ant
never saw more ti an two people attend
ing the fame, one a grown person a; .and
the other a f.rall boy. This machine
is capable of bring attached to almost any
of those uitd for various purposes in tiiis
country ; the ccnflrudlion appeal's by
no means complex, and every planter of
cor(equence In the Bahamas is in the
praclice of uiing them.
