168 Jtflufesu From the Philadelphia Gazette. SACRED ’ TO THt MEMORY OP DAVID R ITTLNHO ys E, Est. ■i Who departed this life , June 26th, 1796 FAME, seize tby clarion—found along the fhorr, America’s great Artist. is no more—* Hp whole sagacious enterprize could scan, Os Harry worlds, the motion and the plan; In horrian mechauifm the whole could trace, And tear the veil from myftick nature’s face; Me now is gone—whom earth would hold in vain, His mind enlarg’d—rejeft* the mortal chain— Fiom deep relearch and fludious labors flown, To worlds before by Icicnce made his own! Modrft—ingenious —-philofophic—wife, Who can enough h:s loft perfections prize ? Not only knowledge decks the Sage’s urn, Rut civic virtues round the patriot mourn : Os manners f’unple, tiro’ of taste refin’d, His bosom glow’d with love of human kind ; His country’s weal how ardently he lov’d A life of faithful frrvice now hath prov’d. In trying times as in the profb’rous true, No change of State, his fifthnefs could subdue. And yc who saw him in the. fofter light, ‘Of hufband —father—-brotHer—give delight, Yc befl can tell what his domefttc pruife, Who palt with you his all inilrufting days ; To public zeal what private worth he join’d ; How lov’d a parent, and a friend how kind! Alafs my country—what a loss for you ; Who such amass of talents shall ren"w ? Who shall restore Lhe Brilliance of his mind ? Or fill the space his abfeuce leaves behind What Sage more firm thy councils shall adorn ? What abler aft iff for thy Fame be born ? Who tried in ficiU, in various office tried, Ne’er gave thee cause of mourning, till he died ! Columbia's boast wherever now temploy’d, To perfect schemes by forctailc here enjoy’d. Whatever works, of Heaven’s Imperial State, Thy mind engages, or thy thought elate ; Still it on earth a R< colleftivc view, May foot he thy fancy or pall scenes renew ! Uh ! to thy country oft dirett a ray Os guardian light, from thy celestial day; Inspire her flatelmen, and inllrutl her youth, To follow thee, in innocence and truth : On freedom's hale to rule the rising slate, And be like thee in cqhfcious virtue, great; So distant ages shall applaud thy name, And learn from Ritienhoose the road to Fame.

EVE’s arrival in Savannah, puts it in the power of the fubferiber- to answer any enquiries refpe£ting his Cotton Ginn’s. All Subscribers will be supplied in time to clear out their present years crop. T. SPALDING. Savannah, June 21. 32-ts Cotton Ginning. H E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. E V E, of the Bahama Islands, to receive a fubfeription for his Cor ton Cinnmng Machine. Gen tleman of the hates of South-Carolina a id Georgia, who may wi(h to become fubferibers, are requefled 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 thepow er that impels it, in Savannah, for fifty guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part, he con trails that this Machine will gin 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, such as rice machines, saw or grill 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 fubjefl I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the undesigned certi ficate from a refpetlable Cotton Plan ter of this Hate, who has been an eyt witnefs of the execution done by this machine, and to variofs Certificates that have come out at different times in the Bahama papers, signed by the moft ref peClable Planters in that country. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who may wilh to be'come a fubferiber. This 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 Hates, and sent to Savannah fbi/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 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 flaple, and, from a sample of feed and cotton in poflcffion of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion.. During my flay 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 if other a small boy. This machine is capable of being attached to almofl any of those used for various purposes in this country,; the conflru&ion appears by no means complex, and every planter of confequcnce in the Bahamas is in the practice ofufing them.
