184 ffiluftg. From a late London Taper. THE PAD* To the Tunc of “ The Vicar and Moses.” WHAT various ways The female. essays To win the affeftion* of man ; The charms of Hit year, That cmbellifh’d die rear, Mow worttonly sport in the van, The prominent wnift Os the women of taftc, Is a fafhion that's sure of succeeding, When fu ellings before Aie reckon’d no more Than merely the marks of good breeding. Had I really not known, This odd tafle of the town I’d have thought ladies gone very far ; And have laid any bet, All the women I inet, Were raising recruit* for the war. The big-b—lv’d lass, Who unnotic’d would pass If with guilt you should venture to charge her, Cried, “ The people are mad : “ Don't you fee ’tismv Pad !” Tho’ her Pad’s growing larger and larger. Then let each lovely fair This fafhion forbear, Which depravity only avows : Let no swelling appear, In the front or the rear, But such as tweet nature allows. EPIGRAMS cn the LADIES PADS. When women’s minds were undefil’d and chaft”, F.v’n wives would blush, to flicw a swelling waifl ; r But now the Pads that give the fafhion’d swell, Mere misses waftt, and wanton wishes tell ; Tho’ great in (ize, their modelly is small, They rife to flmw how e ifily Lhcy fall. SAYS Laura to Kitty, when fixing her Pad, A natural one mufl be charming, egad ! “ Yes, laughing, fays Kittv, “ for who can ne gledf To advert to the cause when they fee the effeft.” THE Mehometans believ” that women have no fouls ; we Chriitians fee that they have now do ft their bodies ; therefore they cannot be hu man, hut mufl be what we always thought them— Ansels. * A kmd of hag, fluffed with straw, or feme other matter, and common/*’ wore round tin waif underneath the cloath’s, by the la dies in Europe, and fame parts of America., which add much to the elegance of their appearance.

Mr. E EE, of the Bahama Illands, to receive a fubfeription for his Cot ton Ginning Machine. Gen tlernan of the Rates of South-Carolina and Georgia, who may wilh to become fubferibers, are requested to fend for ward their names as loon as convenient, in order that the fubfeription may be ciofed. 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 tracts that this Machine will gin 30olbs. of c*n cotton per day, with a small npelling 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 lor other purposes, such as rice machines, >aw or grill mills. Mr. Eve will fend over a person competent to set them in •notion, and fully to explain their sev eral powers. From fume small expe riments that have been made upon the Teen feed cotton it appears that from 150 to 20olbs. can be ginned in this machine per day. For further informa- ‘ tion upon this fubjett I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the underftgned certi ficate from a refreshable Cotton Plan ter of this Rate, who has been an cye 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 mod ref pedable Planters in that country. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who may vvilh to become a fubteriber. This machine has met with universal ap probation in every part of the Welt- Indies to which it has been sent. THOMAS SPALDING. GEORGIA , Chatham County. IDO certify, that, being on a vifitfor 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 states, 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 1 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 courf'e of a day. The machine separates the feed from the cotton by rollers without do ing any injury to the staple, and, from a lainple of feed and cotton m poflefiion of the fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion. During my flay in Naf fauT 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 almost any of those used for various purposes in this country ; the conltruttion appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the practice ofuftng them.
