The Pumhin and Paddy. A certain Paddy, newly transported into this country, palled by where a farmer was ga thering Pumkins. “By myjhouland what do you call thnn,” fays Paddy—“ Mares eggs,” fays, the farmer. “ And by Sc. Patrick , and won't you fell me one of them ? for l wish to get in a way of raifitig my own korfes, for my poor old father jfraightenrd the hemp for nothing but for taking one without liberty" —“ Yes, yes, for a qminer of a dollar you may take one.” So Paddy takes it and on he goes, and by defeending a bill, he by chance let the pumkin fall, and it took a direflion down the hill towards a bunch of bushes, and Mr. Paddy in Full fpecd after it. The pumkin flruck a Rump and split open—a rabft which lay under the bushes asleep, ftart cd up, almost frightened to death, and Paddy aft r it, yelling, “ flop that cault! flop that cauit! fop that cault f LONDON. L iberty of the Subject, It is really surprising that people should bawl so for liberty when there is To much lit this kingdom. It is well kntnvn that all ranks of people poflefs liberties which every thinkingman mult ferioofly wish did’not cxift; and that many of our liberties trench upon those of other people. Several of our great men have the liberty to run in debt with every man who is fool enough to give them credit, the liberty to refufe pay ment as long as they please, and the lib erty to plead privilege to protect their sacred persons from the pursuit of Jaw. But their, on the other hand, fome trades men have the liberty of charging so high for their goods, that if they are Eai-1 once in seven years they will dill c gainers by the bargain, whilst others, more conscientious, have the liberty to be ruined, and Lave their names inferr ed in the ■Gazette, introduced by a “whereas. Many of our Clergy have the liberty of enjoying finccures, and pluralities ; whilll their lean curates have the liber ty of doing all the duty, and maintain ing their families as well as they can, witli forty or fifty pounds a yfcar. Several persons who never saw a fwOrd drawn, orihot fired, (except perhaps, in a duel, ou an imaginary affront,. ip de fence of the reputation of a strumpet, or on a qirarrcl about cards or dice) have thcl ifcerty to start up at once as military commanders, and raise regiments. For which purpofc they have had the liber ty to employ crimps—to trepan the un wary, to seize men who had no other crime but poverty, drag them from their families, and fend them into the army or the navy, and to depopulate the fields ■and looms for the good of the service. Ladies of easy virtue (or rather no virtue at all) take the liberty of croud ing all public places, elbowing women of imputation, and putting modesty out of countenance. Os glorying in their infamy ; and when they grow old them selves and pail their trade, of ’writing their **c moris for the edification of youth. Contractors for lamps and cleaafing our streets, have the liberty of leaving the citizens in darkness and in filth ; of sparing the expence of oil and brooms whilst the taxes tor those purpoies arc Tigorouflv exadted ; and w hat is worse, nobody takes the liberty of profccoting them on their bonds, and bringing them to juitice.

N” O T I C E. MR. EVE’s arrival in Savannah, puts it in the power ol the fubferiber to anlwcr any enquiries refpe&ing his Cotton Ginn’s. All Subscribers will be iupplied in time to dear out their p.cfent years crop. T. SPALDING. Savannah, June 21. 32-ts Cotton Ginning. TH E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. E Y Ey of the Bahama I (lands, to receive a fubfeription for his Cot ton Ginning Machine. Gen tleman of the Rates of South-Caroiina and Georgia, who may wi(h 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 dean cotton*per day, with a final! 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 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 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 per day. For further informa tion upon this fubjedl I beg leave to re fer gentlemen ta the undertigned certi ficate from a refpedable Cotton Plan ter of this state, who has been an cyc 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 peclable Planter-sin that country. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who may wish to become a fubferiber. This machine has met with universal ap probation in every part of the Weft- Indies to which it has been sent. v THOMAS SPALDING. GEORGIAy Chaiham County . IDO certify, that, being on a visit for my health to New Providence, one of the Bahama lflands, 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 fouthem Rates, and lent to Savannah for a small quantity there of, which on experiment I found to au fwer. The rainy season setting in a bout the time I received the cotton the whole was not ginned, but Mr. Eve af fufed 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 courie of a day. The machine separates the feed from the cotton by rollers without do ing any injury to the staple, and, from a fiunple of feed and cotton in pofleifion of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion. During my flay in Naf lau 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 uled tor various purposes in this country ; the confiru&ion appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the pradlice of uiing them.
