On the 20 th Annivcrfary of
American Indetenbence,
Fourth cf July, 1796.
HAIL Glorious Day ! that saw Columbia free
from Power tyrannic, and Opprcfiion’s sway •
When Freemen fcovn’d to bend the ferrile knee ;
Or any despot’s stern commands obey.
ftleft Independence ! welcome to this land,
Where Law and Liberty together reign;
Where Freedom’s Sons united hand in hand,
Uy Reason’s influence, all their Rights maintain.
Long may this favour’d land enjoy repose,
from feuds doineflic, and external wars ;
bled with a Government that wifely flows
From people—rul’d by mild and equal laws !
United may thcle States, forever, be
Jn Friendlhip, Concord, Harmony and Peace;
Columbia’s Son’s will then continue free
‘TiH worlds difTolve, and time iifell fhail ccnfd !

Cotton Ginning.
TH E Subscriber is empowered by
Mr, E VEy of the Bahama I Hands,
to receive a fubfeription for his Cot
ton Ginning Machine. G en
tleman of the dates of South-Carolina
and Georgia, who may wifti to become
fubferibers, are requeued 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 parr, he con
tra&sthat this Machine will gin 3oolbs.
of clean cotton per day, with a small
impelling power either of wind, of wa
ter, or of liorfes. 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 grist mills. Mr. Eve will fend
over a person competent to set them in
motion, and fully to explain their fev
sral powers. From foine 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 iubjett I beg leave to re
fer gentlemen to the undersigned certi
ficate from a refpedtable Cotton Plan
ter of this state, 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 wiih to become a subscriber.
This machine has met with universal ap
probation in every part of the Weil-
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 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 ilates, and sent
to Savannah for a small quantity there
of, which on experiment I found to afi
fwer. 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 leparates the feed
from the cotton by rollers without do
ing any injury to the staple, and, from a
sample of iced and cotton in poffcllion ’
oi the subscriber, 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
the other a finail boy. This machine
is capable of being attached to almoil any
of those used for various purposes in this
country ; the con It ru ft ion appears by
no means complex, and svery planter of
consequence in the Bahamas is in the
practice of using them.
