Who now with claarfulnefs shall finding toil, And happy view the children of his care ? Say who with industry (hall dress the foil, For who the wife her frugal (lore prepare ? Must the delight that deck’d the honed brow, The tender Father fad and filert droop. The smile contented, and the healthy glow, Alike be banilh’d from the guiltlels groupc ? No more the hand of industry nmft glean The well -earn’d murlel from the yielding earth, No more with thanks the humble bread mud teem, But looks mud speak, and sighs deplore the dearth. Wild with difpair, the diftrefs'd father flies, To leek for death, or glory, in the field ; Di drafted fights to (lop his children’s sighs, And uobly bleeds, the bitter bread to yield. The widow's tears mud wet the harden’d ground, The scanty cruft in tears his offspring deep, Yet cartels (til!, no end these tears have found* When father, husband, friend, they have to weep. .CHARLOTTE. T he Lounging HouJe-JVife. THE lounging house-wise rises in the morning in hade ; for laxy folks are ever in a hurry—She has not time to put on her clothes properly, but ihe can do it at any time. She draws on her gown, but leaves it half pinned, her handkerchief is thrown awry across her neck, her ihoes down at the heels ; lire bullies about with her hair over her eyes; fire runs from room to room slip shod, refolvcd to do up the work and dress herfelf ; but folks who are llip-fhod übout the feet, are usually flip-flood all over the houfc, and all day ; they begin way thing and fntjh nothing. In the midst of the poor woman's hurry, some body comes in : she is in a flutter, runs into the next room, pins up her gown and handkerchief, hurries back with keels thumping the floor : Oh dear, you have catched us all in the suds ! J in tended to have cl aned up before any body came in, but I had every thing to do this morning ; in the mean time, lhe catches hold of the broom, and begins to (weep : the dud rises and ftifles every foul prefeni.

EVE’s arrival in Savannah, puts it in thc power of thc fubferiber to anfwcr any enquiries refpefting his Cotton Ginn’s. All Subscribers will be lupplied in time to clear out their present years crop. T. SPALDING. S’avannah, June 21. * 3'a-tf Cotton Ginning. TH E Subscriber is empowered by Mr. EYE, of she Bahama Islands, to receive a fublcription for his Cot ton Ginning Machine. Gen tleman of the states ot South-Caroiina and Georgia, who may willi to become fubferibers, are requested to fend for ward their names as soon as convenient, in order that the fubfeription may lie doled. 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 trads that this Machine will gin joolbs. of clean cotton per day, with a small impelling power either of wind, of wa ter, or ot horses. This machine in a few days, and with a trifling expence, can be attached to any machine in use for other j urpofes, fuchas rice machines, saw or grist mills. Mr. Eve will fend over a person competent to fetthem 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 zoolbs. can bp ginned in this machine per day. For further informa tion upon this fubjedt I beg leave to re fer gentlemen to the undersigned certi ficate from a respectable Cotton Plan ter of this stale, 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 bv the molt ref pedable Planters in that country. Fur ther particulars will be made known upon application from any gentleman who may wifn to become a fubferiber. This machine has met withuniverfal ap probation in every part of the Weft- Indies to which it has been sent. THOMAS SPALDING. GEORG lA, Chat loam County. IDO certify, that, being on a vifitfor 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 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 thc 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. Thc machine separates thc feed from the cotton by rollers without do ing any injury to the ltaple, and, from a sample of feed and cotton in possession of thc fubferiber, any gentleman can be immediately convinced of the truth of this opinion. During my flay iu 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 small boy. This machine is capable of being attached to almost any of those used for various purposes in this country; the conftruftion appears by no means complex, and every planter of consequence in the Bahamas is in the practice of using them.
