M,R EVE’s arrival in Savannah, puts it in the power of the fubferiber to aufwcr any enquiries reffjtfling his Cotton Ginn’s. All Subfcrihcrs will be supplied in time to clear out their Drefent years crop. T. SPALDING. Savannah, June 21. 32-ts Cotton Ginning. TH E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. EV E } of the Bahama JJlands, to receive a fubl'cription for his Cot ton Ginning Machine. Gen tleman of the Hates of South-Carolina and Georgia, who may wiih to become fubferibers, are requelled to fend for ward their names as loon as convenient, in order that the fubferiptfon may be closed. Mr. Eve will engage to deliv er the Machine, independent ot the pow er that impels it, in Savannah, for fifty guineas. On Mr. Eve’s part, he con trails that this Machine will gin 300 IDS. of clean cotton per day, with a small impelling pov/er 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 feme 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 fubjedl I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the underlined certi ficate from a refpedable Cotton Plan ter of this slate, 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 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. This machine.has met with universal ap probation in every part of the Wed- Indies to which it has been sent. THOMAS SPALDING. GEORGE! , Chatham County. IDO certify, that-, being on a vifltfor my health to New Providence, one of the Bahama Illands, 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 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 duple, and, from a sample of feed and cotton in podeflion of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion. During iny flay in Nas sau I frequently vifued 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 almofl any of those used for various purposes in this country ; the condruhdion appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the praftice of using them.
