Written b) the lat: Mrs. Marriott.
O’ER lovely vales I’ll smiling stray,
Where roles bluih on many a bough ;
To weave a garland fweeily gay,
And bind n blooming round by brow.
Simplicity shall be my guide,
The lily pale (Hall (he entwine ;
The truth array’d in angel piide,
I’ll woo and make her ever mine
And then, my sweetly signing Mufc,
Attendant of my infant days—
Thou art too humble to refufe,
Thy artful unambitious Jays.
Sweet as to flow’rs arc falling dews,
To me thy influence all divine ;
And yet mv ever prnfivc Muse,
FellSltmucr (aid—thou art not mine.
Enchanting was that moment blefs’d,
Love fpark'cd in thy fancied eye ;
Thou catch’d me trembling to thy bread,
And look’d indignant on the he.

And whether sleeping or awake,
At lead be dreaming of a better.

Cotton Ginning.
THE Subfcribcr is empowered by
Mr. E f E, of the Bahama Islands,
to receive a fubfeription for his Cot
ton Ginning Machine. Gen
tleman of the states of South-Caroiina
and Georgia, who may wilh 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
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 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 fome small expe
riments that have been made upon the
green feed cotton it appears that from
150 to 2oolbs. can be ginned in this
machine per day. For further informa
tion upon this fubjeft I beg leave to re
fer gentlemen to the underflgned certi
ficate from a refpe&able Cotton Plan
ter of this state, who has been an eye
witnels of the execution done by this
machine, and to various certificates that
have come out at different times in the
Bahama papers, ftgned by the mod 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 Weft-
Indies to which it has been sent.
THOMAS SPALDING.

IDO certify, that, being on a visit for
my health to New Providence, one
of the Bahama Hands, 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 setting 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 Itaple, and, from a
fa mule of feed and cotton in poflefflon
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 law more than two people attend
ing the fhme, 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 conftunfticn appears by
no means complex, and every planter of
confequenCe in the Bahamas is ig the
pradice of ufmg them.
