HUSBAND.
GLORY detains me far from home,
Too far from thy bright eyes I roam,
“Tis this makes fad my foul ;
Bat when my arm spreads death around,
My heart v/ith thee may ilill be found,
’ ‘Tis this does me console.
WIFE.
In sleep I grasp your pleasing form,
It flies at the approach of morn,
‘Tis this makes fad my foul;
My pencil still employ’d on you,
Your form with plea!tire does renew,
‘Tis this does me console.
HUSBAND.
Perhaps those laurels round me grow,
Which once adorn’d Attucon's brow,
’Tis this makes fad my foul;
But then I know your ardent love
No other suitor can approve,
‘Tis this does me console.
WIFE.
Anxious to triumph o'er the braVe,
Proud Spain would make my lovea Have,
‘Tis this makes fad my foul;
But you, led on by liberty,
Your country from these monitors free,
‘Tis this does me console.
HUSBAND.
The foes advance, we’ll lhew them play ;
I cannot write again this day,
’Tis this makes fad my foul;
Mars often yields to Cupid's bow,
Hut ’tis his turn to conquer now,
‘Tis this does me console.
WIFE.
Return an instant to my arms ;
He flics—nor hears but wars alarms*
’Tis this makes fad my foul;
Tyrants our country to surround,
My hero deals the deadly wound ;
‘Tis this does me confoleA
husband. ..
Conqueror from battle I return,
But wounds recievcd I have to mourn,
‘Tis this makes fad my foul ;
I limp, but this demands no care,
Behold our country free as air,
‘Tis this does me console.
W I F E.
What do I fee ! the fate of war,
Has dealt you many a ghastly fear,
’Tis this makes fad my foul;
Your pleasing form is maim’d, ‘tis true,
But Fame, her Temple ope s for you,
‘Tis this does ine console.

Cotton Ginning.
TII E Subscriber is empowered by
Mr. E PE, of the Bahama Islands,
to receive a fubfeription for his Cot
ton Ginning Machine. Gen
tleman of the dates of South-Carolina
and Georgia, who may wish to become
fubferibers, are rcquelted 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 lifty
guineas. On Mr. Eve's part, he con
trails that this Machine will gin 300I0S.
of clean cotton per day, with a small
impelling power either of wind, of wa
ter, or ol horses. This machine in a
few days, and with a trifling cxpence,
can be attached to any machine in life
for otherpurpofes, 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 sev
eral powers. From foine 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 underlined certi
ficate from a refpedable Cotton Plan
ter of this date, 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, ligned by the moil ref
pedable 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 feat.
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 dates, and sent
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 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 oat 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
dimple of feed and cotton in polfellion
of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be
immediately convinced of the truth ol
this opinion. During my day in Nas
sau 1 Irequcntly viftted Mr. Eve’s ma
chine which was impelled by wind, and
never law 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 conftru&ion appears by
no means complex, and every planter ol
consequence in the Bahamas is in the
practice of uling them.
