From Ute Washington (Ga.) News.
Debate In the Senate on the Ad mlion or
Florida and lowa Into the Union.
It was our intention to have divided the de
bate on the above, and published n before this,
butowing to its great length we deterred it Irotn
tune to time, and have concluded merely to ra
ter to the matter ol controversy, to d--> juriiee in
some degree to Senator Berrien for the able and
conclusive inanaer in which he anawered ob
jections to the bill, and defended Southern rights,
The objections were not to the admission of lowa,
but Florida. There was a provision in the Con
stitution submitted lortheStateoi Florida, which
gave the Legislature the power, topretwnZthe im
migration ol free colored persons, into the limits
of that State; also another, by which the Legis
lature was denied the power to emancipate a
slave. It was contended that these provisions
were unconstitutional, particularly the first, and
also violatory ol principles of justice and hu
manity. Our leaders will lecoilect, that the im
prisonment ot colored seamen of Massachusetts,
in the Stales of South Carolina an I Louisiana,
was the origin ot two celebrated missions to
those Slates, from the State ot Massachusetts,
and that Mr. Hoar, the agent to the first, and
Mr. Hubbard, the a-ent to the latter, were ex
pelled suddenly from their respective limits.—
Their objects were to contest legally the right ot
those States o imprison free colored people of
Massachusetts, for no other offence than merely
going into their limits. This right they con
tested upon the ground, that such persons from
Massachusetts were citizens ot that State, and
therefore, under the constitution entitled to the
privileges of citizen-hip conferred by that instru
ment. This ridiculous and preposterous posi
tion met in South Carolina and Louisiana, with
the contempt which it deserved. I: was in refe
rence it not to these cases, at least tosnch citizen
ship that the foolish and absurd objections to the
admissi mos Florida were made. We do not
intend to follow the course of argument by
which they were sought to be sustained, they are
at once too frivolous and bigotted, to be noticed
so much, and before our readers. Senator Ber
rien, upon the spot, where they originated, and
where they were warmly maintained, felt called
upon to notice them, and he did so in a manner
becoming to himself, the occasion and the inte
rests of the South. He showed that the provi
aion ot the Constitution of Florida, denying to
the Legislature the power to emancipate alaiMtg
was just and constitutional and
the rights of slaveholders. While however it
prevented the Legislature from taking away the
property ofindividuals, it did not prevent individ
uals, if they saw proper to do so, from emac'.pa
ting their slav s. He showed that Congress had
no right upon the admission ol a slave State, to
attempt to regulate its action upon this subject.
He proceeded to express his regret, that a ne
cessity exited for him to pursue this subject;
but that he was constrained to do so by feelings
which he could not repress. He avowed to
Senators, that when Congress should so far forget
its duty and usurp ungranted powers, as to deny
to a State the right of legislating in cases vital
to her security, there would be inscribed on the
records of our national history, the words “ This
Republic was.” He treated with proper con
tempt.the very idea ot relinquishing such a right,
and subjecting Siates in cases ot vital internal
danger, to the uncertain, doubtful and danger
ous regulations and actions of Congress, tie
told his co-Senators that the South had never
entrusted its security on this subject to the guar
dianship ot Congress, that it did not ask ol Con
gress a guaranty of the rights of self-preserva
tion—that they belonged to the States when
they came into the Union, were never surren
dered and were also declared to exist by the
Federal Constitution itself. He denied tfiat the
Constitution conferred upon Congress the power
to send emissaries to the South, under the false
garb of citizenship, to destroy its repose and en
danger its safety. That if such power existe I,
a State woufdeome into the Union only for self
immolation. We have thus given very imper
fectly, an outline ot a part of the forcible and
conclusive positions of Senator Berrien, on the
occasion ot the exciting debate ot the Bi 1 to ad
mit Florida and lowa into the Union. The
following remarks conclude his speech from the
pointupto which we have attempted to describe
it,
“Congress had the power to regulate com
merce, butthat right (at least in early limes)
was so constituted as to be in consistency with
the rights of the states. The States had no power
to pass quarantine laws! Suppose, then, a
vessel having the passport of th is Government,
presented herself at a Southern port, with dead
lyinfection onboard of her; the passport ot
the Government permitted her to enter, but at
the mouth of the harbor she was met by a State
quarantine law, which forbade her to enter, or
required her to pass imtnediately'totbe quaran
tine ground. Here was Stale and Federal
jurisdiction in open conflict. The Federal au
thority said to the captain, you may enter the
harbor ofCharleston and lay your vessel along
side the wharves; the State authority said io
hitn, approach not lUe wharves at your peril,
but go straight to the quarantine ground. Th*
ease was brought before the Supreme Court,
and the Supreme Court decided that quarantine
laws were laws ol domestic policy and as such
were not unconstitutional. Ih the earlier days
of the Republic Congress had thought it Iheir
duty to conform their laws to the vital necessi
ties of i j State over whose people those laws
were to <. erate, and they therefore commanded
their own officers in all such cases to support
the Stare laws. But now gentlemen contended
that they had a right to send into the ports and
among the population of the South, not a phy
sically, indeed, but what was infinitelywor.se,
a moral plague; that they had a right to send,
under the garbofa sailor, colored insurrection
ists from St. Domingo, to raise up Southern
slaves against their masters and set them to
culling throats and burning houses, and that the
Southern States had no power to pass any law
to protect themselves from that danger! But
the Senator from Maine said the South has this
right—that it a colored lave entered her ports,
with such a purpose in nis heart, they might
seize and punish him. Ay, but they must
first look into his heart, and when they bad
looked there and found murder and incendia
rism, then they might punish him; but that
they had no power to pass a preventive law,
taking from him the opportunity of either burn
ing or murdering. Did not the Senator see that
the act once committed might be b vond re
call not only, but beyond punishment also?
Must the South wait under that risk, or might
she not put forth her preventive power.
On this subject Mr. B did not speak withoui
personal knowledge. He had a tew years ago
nis residence in a Southern city, where, oi*
sudden, one distressing conflagration alter
another took place almost nightly. In spite ol
all the vigilance ofthe police, fire after fire con
tinued to occur, and they were neither able to
prevent them nor to detect the incendiary.—
Night after night had Mr. B. been personally
on duty in the endeavor to ascertain the cuuse
of so unprecedented a phenomenon ; and, if' pos
sible, delect and arrest the guilty authors. These
scenes continued for more than a fortnight,
until effoits of a new description were resorted
to. They had a descriptive census taken of all
the inhabitants ot the city. The name, resi
dence, and occupation of every individual was
set down; when they at length discovered an
agent ol one ot the societies ol the North,—who
had himself been an actor in the horrors of St.
Domingo, but who, at the very moment ol his
arrest, threw into the fire the papers which
would doubtless have furnished the evidence of
his guilt. Mr. B prayed Ncqxngrn Senators
frankly to tell him whether theh wished incendia
ries of this descripting So. have free access to
Southern slaves 1 He presumed they did not.
The Southern States were anxious to keep
such persons out 6f their territories, not for r.he
sake of preventing fires, but for guarding
against far worse evils. They desired t, o pre
vent a certain description of persons from
Maine and Massachusetts from exercising
their vocation in the parts ol t',. e Southern
Slates. Did not a spirit of con-.jiiation forbid
Northern gentlemen from preventing the South
from thus defending herself? These laws
arose from no inhospitable spirit; ibeir p o r- i 3
were open, their bea-.ts were open to >’,.->>•
o f the North. All they asked was
mat they would nut insist on bringing » in * upo J
the South a class of persons amo', ia whom
might be men oi this description , wt)o caine
commissioned to spread desola>', O n throughout
their land.
They had, in the Southern ports and on board
their own vessels, colored seamen who wete
slaves. If one of these ’vessels went into a port
ofthe State of Masse c husetts, all those slaves
were instantly emancipated. If this was de
nied, he could r.-fer gentlemen to the case of a
negro from Virginia who had been perm itted by
his raastei > o go on board of an American ves
sel of The vessel entered the harbor of
Boston, and the colored man was taken from on
board the vessel by the abolitionists, and the
courts of Massachu-ctts decided that that man
came voluntarily within the bounds ofthe State
of Massachusetts, and they emancipated him.
Now, it the State of Massachusetts might say
to the people of the South, if you send your co
lored men inmout pans, they must be subject
to our laws, might not the Southern Slates say
the same thing to the State of Massachusetts I
What would justice, what would equity reply ?
But the claim advanced by the Senator from
Maine rested, as he understood, on that clause
of the Constitution which declared that “citi
zens ot each State shall be entitled toall privi
leges and immunities of citizens in the several
States.” The Senator said that these colored
persons were citizens of Maine and Massachu
setts. Was it true? Did these colored men
exercise all the rights of citizens in those Slates?
Did they sit as jurors ? Was marriage between
white and colored persons permitted by the laws
ot the State of Maine ?
Mr. Evans was understood to reply that pau
pers chargeable upon towns for their support
might.
Mr. Berrien. Well, then, he would inquire
whether a colored man ot property, let him be
wealthy as the Senator pleased, might such a
one marry a white woman ? Might lie, accord
ing to the laws ot Massachusetts? Did the Se
nator Iront Massachusetts assent?
Mr. Choate said that if the Senator from
Geotgia wished him toteii him the point of la v
in Massachusetts, he would s ate that by a late
law of that State, the prohibit-* - v uich former
ly existedhad been abol’sh.«, - 1 ‘ed nad
white persons were at liberty to ino . t_, .
Mr. Berrien said it the t&ct was indeed so, he
would only axpraas his unfeigned regret The
law, it seemed, had repealed the former prohi
bition ; but he trusted, for the honor’s sake ol
Massachusetts, within whose bounds were ma
ny persons dear to his heart, the law had never
had any practical operation, it seemed to be
admitted, however, that, even in Maine and
Massachusetts, free colored persons might not
sit as jurors. They were not, then, in the ple
nary sense ot the term, citizens of those States.
Yet they were to be sheltered by Senators under
the provisionsol the Constitution made for citi
zens, and for citizens . nly.
We had a treaty with Great Britain which
provided that the subjects and citizens ot the
two countries should have tree access to the
ports of the other. Anti yet notwithstanding
this treaty provision, which was the highest
lawofthe land, they had a law rendering it
highly penal to bring in negroes. Corgtess
bad manifested their respect for the laws of the
South, who thought such a provision indispen
sable to iheir safety. He asked that whaj the
North requited ofthetn she would do for them.
They had vessels from both navigated in the
same manner, by colored persons, as a part of
their crews. When gentlemen talked about a
spirit ol conciliation, he invited them to show it
in their own example. The South demanded
that the existing disparity be abolished.
it was a vain attempt to accomplish the abro
gation of these conservative laws of the slave
holding States. This little clause in the Fl rti
da Constitution could notconteror strengthen
the power to pass such laws—the right existed
belore the clause and without it. The Legisla
ture of Florida would possess the right to guard
the properly and safety of her citizens, and
could not lose it by any action of this Govern
ment. If she could, would she not act a suici
dal part io asking to be admitted into the con
federacy? The Senate’s expurgation ot any
clauses of her constitution will not influence the
decisions of the Supreme Court in regard to the
constitutionality of her laws. Had this clause
been permitted to pass without opposition or com
ment, the South had nothing to gain by it, nor
any wish to gain anything; but, when gentle
men called on Southern Senators to strike out
the clause because they were numerically supe
rior, his answer was, that no power beneath the
empyrean could induce a Southern man to sa
crifice one jot or or.e tittle ot Southern rights.
, Cooks in England ar£ all women, and in
France they are men, and English cooks are
persons ol considerable pretensions, enjoying
well defined rights and privileges. A few w’eejss
since, al Marlborough street police office, Lucy
Warner, cook, was charged by James Hawes,
toolman, with having thrown a stew-pan of hoi
gravy at itis head, by which his lace became
scalded, and his clothes very much greased.
“Dinner, your wors' ip,” said cooky, “ was or
dered punctual at six on Sunday; at five min
utes past I’d sent up the fish, two butter-boats ot
shrimp sauce, and potatoes. There was cul
lets, call’s Leads, and birds to follow; and 1
says to James, ‘ Before you remove, ring the
bell to give me warning, and bring down a ve
getable dish, for hot potatoes.’ He eatnedo'vn
into the kitchen without the vegetable dish, ju*t
.is 1 was dishing up the birds. ‘Where’s the
dish,’ says I, ‘James, for the hot potatoes?’
‘ 'I hem raters up stairs is hot enough,’ says he.
‘Go op for the dish,’ says111. 1 Shan’t,’ says he.
‘You ain’t fit to wait on nobody’s table,’ said I.
‘ And you ain’t fit to be cook.’ says he, ‘ for you,
only came out of a doctor’s shop.’ ‘Say that
again and i’ll thrfiw the brown gravj- over
your ugly face.’ ‘No you daren’t,’ says he. So
your worship, as he dared me—and when a wo
man’s dared she’ll do anything—l slapped the
gravy in his face, and he run up stairs crying
like a baby, and told misses.” The case was
settled by the cook agreeing to pay il.
Juvenile. Courage.—We lately met with an
account ot an incident, which occurred in the
town of Weser in Germany, tn which a remarka
ble degree of courage and presence of mind was
manifested by a lad only seven years ot age.—
He was playing one day with his sister lour
years old, when he was alarmed by the cry of
some men who were in pursuit of a mad dog.—
The child suddenly looking around him, saw
the dog running towards him—but instead of
making his escape, he took off his coat and
wrapping it around his arm boldly faced the
dog, and holding out the arm covered with the
coat, the animal attacked it and worried the
coat till the men came up, who being armed
with clubs, killed the dog. The men reproach
fully asked the boy, why he did not run, and
avoid the dog, which he could so easily have
done. Yes, said the little hero, I could have
run Irotn the dog; but, if I had, he would have
attacked my sister. To protect her, however, I
thought ol offering hint my coat, which lie migh'
tear at till you should come up and kill him.—
The men, as well they might, first admired his
courage in facing the dog; but they were more
astonished at the prudence and firmness of mind
discovered by this phenomenon. The conduct
of this wonderlul child tarnishes a useful hint to
persons of more mature age, in proteetingtliem
selves from the attack of a mad dog.
Dear Indulgence of Fancy.—A correspon
dent ol a New Haven paper, writing from
New York, that “ Paris of America,” gives the
following evidence of the expensive tastes that
exist in that busy metropolis:
“Ip the bookstores of this city at, unprece
dented number ot splendid annuals are to be
found, some of them as high as $36. This for
a mere fancy book, is no mean sum. I saw
fans in a fancy shop, valued at $9 but Bonfanti
lias them as high as 580 or SIOO. They are
beautifully ornamented with precious stones,
and oblong mirrors of the size of a dollar, and
sometimes in addition, a minute gold pencil
and i Viry tables on the side ofthe handle.—
Vluffs, in their season, are sold as high as
$l5O in Maiden Lane; pocket handkOJchiefs
hang in Broadway windows, at SSO eg $75; a I
flute ol tortoise shell, lor $120; xyfijle Black,
Tompkins & Balli, successors to, Marquand &
Co., Jewellers on Broadway, the day before
New Year’s retailed behind their counter fancy
goods in their line to the a:,wunt ol five thousand
and ninety dollars!”
The Deluge dcryr into Music.— A Parisian
correspondent ol the N. Y. Cuurier ites Etats
Unis states that a M. Elwart, a Professor ol the
Conservatory, has been emulating Ibe ambition
of O'e Sull who has run Niagara through his
fiddle, and he has melodized the Universal De
luge. it is an immense drama, as immense as
the globe. Pile curtain is raised-..the music
represents the ark ot Noah—the passengers ern
!>ark---tfre various cries ofthe animals are dis
tinguished—the orchestra spreads over all na
ture the darkness of night—the storm growls in
the brass instruments, and at last n deluge ol
notes drowns, the universe. General desolation
is then represented, soon followed by the flute
solo, is the substance of the programme,
arid alias of course excited much attention.
The composer is said to possess all the talent
necessary for success in this great enterprise.
Yellow Locust.—lS you have but little
fencing timber fit tor posts on your farm, so'.v a
few pounds of yeljow locust seed, and when the
plants are twoygaraold they may be transplan
ted. In twqlye years from the time pm seed is
sown you,may begin to cut them for posts. Say
yon, twelve years is a longtime to-wait; but
, 5 Ost,should recollect, that every farmer has some
spot where they might begr jw n,and that, as
fencing is a dear article, e'.erv farmer should
endeavor to grow hisowr, timber.
Kanawha Salt M ancfacture.—The Ka
nawha Republican -fives the official production
of salt inthe coun’y of Kanawha, for the quar
ter ending the -Zj.i! O s March, at 587,554 bu
shels. This p, an increase of 222,814 bushels
over the |>rot'. uc[ ion of the corresponding quar
ter last yea’r.
Tony AD0 — verv v j o | en£ tornado passed
overf 7hicago on the 24th ult. The wind had
blo' vnstrongly all the day and in the evening a
o rnse black cloud swept across the prairie from
the west. In the city not much damage was
done, but in the country more than thirty houses
were entirely destroyed on the road from St.
Charles to Chicago; the fences were prostrated,
and what is far more deplorable, several lives
were lost and many limbs were fractured.—
Some opinion ot its violence may be formed
from the fact that the tmioersoflog bouses were
carried forty yards.
A very severe storm, also, raged in the river
below St. Louis, on the night ofthe 25<h ul .
Several boats were slightly injured, though no
-ery serious damage was susiained. The
steamer Dr. Franklin, was the most injured.
Civilization.—A savage once said to a
white man, who reproached him with wanting
the conveniences of society :—“ Y’our whole
life is spent in laboring tor the things wc have
learnen to do without.”
The greatest compliment ever paid by one
military character to another, was paid. by-
Frederick the Great to Washington:—“His
hand is an armv, and his head as a state coun
cil."
Building in Cincinnati.—Never, since the
first log cabin was erected in Cincinnati, has
there been such preparation for building, as the
present year. A number of immense blocks,
with cast iron columns, are going up in thecen
tral and business parts ot the city; and in the
suburbs whole streets are constructing. The
number of buildings to be erected trie present
season will not fall short of 1500. Among these
are several large and elegant churches; an Odd
Fellows, a Masonic and a Temperance Hall,
and a splendid College building on the site ot
the old Cincinnati College, which was lately
burnt. A spacious Hotel, corresponding with
the wants and growth ot the citv, is also in con
templation.— Atlas, 260 t.
N./rth Carolina Molasses.— We were surprised
as well as gratified to receive a few days ago
from a friend in Columbus county, a bottle ot
Molasses, ofsuperiorquality, made by Messrs.
Duncan & Gore, who have in operation, near
Sever, Creeks, in the lower end of that county,
a Mill lor grinding the Sugar Cane, at which’
they have made a quantity ot Molasses, verv
much resembling the best New Orleans. We
hope the enterprise will be entirely satisfactory
to its projectors; and we do not see why it should
not he, for the Sugar Cane is grown in great
perfection in this vicinity, and the climate and
soil of Columbus are best adapted to it.— Fayei.

IMPROVEMENT FOR THE BENE
FIT OF MILL OWNERS.
L. D. ADKINS’S AIR-TIGHT SPIRAL
BUCKET
AV ATER WHEEL,
Tor propelling Saw and Grist Mills, and all kinds
of Machinery.
r j'HIESE Wheels, so far as they have
JL been tried, have proved superior to all oth
ers, and have given general satisfaction. The
proprietor feels confident in saying that it is the
best, cheapest and m »st powerful with a small
quantity of water. All who have witnessed its
operation, and those on whes.t exi crience and
judgment the public can rely, have decided that
they are the best wheels. One ofthe many great
nnd impoitant advantages of this Wheel over
ail others, is its running under low .heads of wa
ter, and doing good business where oth r wheels
will not operate at ail. In construction, they
are periectly simple, cheap and durable—being
made of cast iron. They are so enclosed a > not
to freezs in winter, nor are they,in the least at
fected by back-water. They can be usedin al.l
situations and under any head of waler. They
havebeen lately introduced into New England,
but th» ir utility has been fully tested in Ohio and
■other Western States. They arc warranted to
do good business if rightly put in.
TO WHOM IT aMAY CONCERN.
This is to certify that I have put into my mill
one of L. D. Adkins’s patent Spiral Bucket and
Tight Cylinder Water Wheels. With 144 inches
of water, under nine feet head, it would cut a
twenty feet line in three minutes and five se
conds. Considering the small amount of water
and its great strength, I can cheerfully recom
mend it to public notice, believing that it will
perform more labor, (with a given amount ut wa
ter,) than any wheel 1 have ever seen operate.
May 6, 1545. E. PALMER.
We, the undersigned, certify that wc saw the
mill (owned by E. Palmer,) operate, and under
nine feet head, with one hundred and sixty-two
inches of water, it womd cut a line twenty feet
long in two minutes and fifty seconds, and with
one hundred and forty-four inches in three min
utes and five seconds.

SUMMERVILLE FEMALE SE-
MINARY.—MR. and MRS. HATFIELD,
who have lor the last tiedve years been engaged
in the ins truction of youth, in Camden, So. cn.
have determined to establish a Pcmale Seminary
nt the near Augusta. With this
view, they have secured a convenient nnd pleas
ant location in a central part of the y * ie
premises formerly occupied by the Rev. Mr. Da
vis,) where they will be prepared to receive into
their family ton or twelve young Indies as board
ers, and as many day scholars ns may apply*
They flatter themselves that their mature ex
perience in Peaching, and the success which has
attended their efforts in South Carolina, will en
able them to meet the wishes of their patrons,
and to establish a permanent Itisliiuiion of the
highest order in this healthful and pleasant local
ity.
The course of Instruction will cnibrac-’ al' tho
blanches of a liberal education, viz: the Lan
guages, ancient and mode n, Mathematics,
Belles Lettres, &c., Music and Drawing, with
the elementary branches.
Their personal supervision will be extended to
every department of instifiction, and if necessa
ry, the ablest ssistants will be employed.
' Instead ot referring, as they might, to their nu
merous patrons resident in Souiii Carolina, Mr.
and Mrs Hatfield beg leave to refer to the Rev.
Mr. Davis, of Auvusta, who has been personally
acquainted with them during their residence in
Carolina, and is familiar with their mode of in
struction, and amhorizes them to append the fol
lowing expression of his opinion. The school
will open on the first Monday <7th) of April.
Dear Fir :—I cheerfully accord to yourself
and Mrs. Hatfield, the assurance of my lull con
victton of your unusual qualifications to conduct
the importantand responsible enterprise in which
you have embarked. The fact, which is within
my knowledge, that you both have secured the
highest esteem, and retained the unlimited con
fidence of the community, in which, for so ma
ny consecutive years, you have almost entire
ly engrossed the instruction of the youth of
both sexes, is of itself a sufficient voucher of
your superior claims to public confidence, and
supercedes the necessity of any other testimo
nials. Yours, respectfully,
mh7wtl S. S. DAVIS.

In all these cases they have been successful in

tYOTIUB TO COTTON PL.INTERS.
I WILL say to the planters of Geor
gia and South Carolina, that 1 continue to
cany on the manufactuiing of Cotton G !n .s in
Crawfordville,.Ga., where 1 am prepared to ma
nufacture them on various plans to suit purcha
sers. 1 will give a minute description of my
best gins. My saws are of the best cast steel,
and 10 inches in diameter, and I put nine teeth
to the inch j saw cylinder one and a hatfinch
square. The breasts arc all wrought, well faced
with steel and very thick ; the brush is equal if
not superior to any made, and rues on the anti
friction plan. If persons should not like the an
ti-friction plan. 1 make them with a very superior
box, which will contain oil enough to last the gin
three days, with a steel screw in the end so as to
piever.t the saw’s rubbing ths breast. Either of
the above mentioned kinds of gins I will seU at
$2 50 per saw, and wanant them to make as
good cotton as any gins made in the United
States, and to gin a good-quantity per day. I
will make the plain gin of the same material for
82 per saw, the saws 9 inches in diameter, and
warrant them to make equally as good eatton. 1
will fiankly acknowledge that my old make of
g ns were nothin? like equal to the gins that I am
nqw making Any poison wishing one of the
aforementioned gins will address ihe subscri
ber at Crawfordville, Ga., and a gin of either of
the above mentioned kinds will be delivered and
warranted to perform equal to the above recom
mendations.
I will further state to the planters my reasons
for mentioning Im my breasts arc all wr ught.
I have Hied ihe cast ribs and find them not equ «1
to the
say relative to the performance.of my improved
gins I give below certificates from gentlemen
who have used my gins for the last stason.
Repairing wifi be done by special contract on

gins, and sa|d gin has come fully up to the rc
commendntidn given to the gin. I can gin from

This is to certify that I purchased a fifty saw
anti-iriction Gin of Mr. S’. R. Crenshaw last Fad,
esgh saw has one hundred and seventy-two teeth
wftichare very fine ; the brush wheel
rows, of brushes; the gin runs very liuit, so
mu h so that one mule is sufficient to cany it
witliout difficulty. The cotton when ginned has
ton considerable extent the appearance of having
been carded, and so complei. ly is the lint sepa
rated from the motes that almost the whole of
them drop down. I have compared the cotton
ginned by a Carver gin with mine, and it was de
cided by several persons who saw the samples,
that mine had fewer motes, and was better gin
ned in every respect. If Mr. Crenshaw would
make at his gins like mine, I would recommend
all wh > want gins to se*’d to Crawfordville, in
stead of to the North or any where else.

SUPKRIOR COTi’ON GINS.—
The subscriber's improved Gins have been
fairly tested this season by a trial of more thm
five hundred different'ones, all made and sold by
him within (he last ten months, and have proved
to be decidedly th best performing Gins ever
used. He will’further improve those offen d for
next crop, which will make them not only bet
ter perioimj ng, but more durable and convenient
than any other. They arc const! ueted upon
plan of his own; only his own workmen have ev
er made one like them ; and by having a betier
shop aud maebdnery, more and better workmen
of his own, with a steam lumber mill, and steam
power to his factory, can afford gins on better
terms than others ; and if those wanting to pur
chase for next crop will wait until called upon by
one of his agents, or apply to him by letter be
fore they engage elsewhere, he will agree to fur
nish them at a lower price, according to quality,
t iau any other nan or firm His agents will vi
sit planters throughout the State during the sell
ing stason. Address letters to Clinton, Jones

j VEGETA■ PILLS |
A PUBLIC BLEHbING.
These Pills are composed oi vegetables of the
i most innocent, yet epectfic virtues, and are adrni
, rably adapted to the cure of all billons complaints
, They arc Itiphly useiul at all seasons of the
i year, a?-! more particularly during the spring
nnd summer months, when petsons of bilious
habits experience a total loss of a: petite, disa
greeable lisllessnr rs,and generald.-tangcnient ot
the system. They are the best cathartic nnd a-
I p rient medicine ever introduced to the public ;
they arc highly usefulas a preventive against tho
levers which prevail in the Mouth during the sick
ly season ; they strengthen the stomach, procure
a good appetite, promote digestion, purify the
blood, ami restore the invalid to his original
strength and vigor. Persons laboring under the
infirmities of old age wilt find this medicine to
prove wholesome, agreeable, andiiivigoraiing, as
sisting digestion in a remarkable degree, remov
ing those low spirited and trembling sensations,
th, sure effect ot W'ant of lone in lire systejn*
They are peculiarly adapted to those who arc
• troubled with habitual costiveness, and on ac
count of their restorative qualities are pat ticular
ly recommended to those who are suffering from
> chi .nic and lingering complaints. As a general
family medicine they arc not surpassed by any
other preparation, and no medicine chest should
1 be without them. Hundreds, we may say thou
sands, arc now in theenjoyntentofperfect health,
■ which may bo attributed entirely to the fortunate
I tsc.of a single 25 cent box ol Spencer's Vegetable
I Fills. The medical faculty wnrnny approve of
this medicine, and recommend it in yreierencet
r allqlher; and 'hey certainly are most comneteiro
to judge of it. merits. Persons wishing to purt
chose anti-bilious family medicine, cannot be too
I articular to inquire for “ Spencer’s Pills.” Do
n d mind what interested venders may tell you
about others being as good, as there are thou-
' sands of preparations forced into ruaritet almost
everyday, unskilfully prepared, and of doubtful
1 efficacy. Tiris preparation has been long used
by some of the leading lights of the profession in
theirexu nsive practice, and is now prepared with
1 great care, and upon chemical and scieutifle prin
eiples, for general use, by the present proprietors -
I only. Ihe imputation of quackery, therefore,
■ cannot be affixed to this medicine, since it is the
1 production of regular, scientific, prucLcing phy
sicians, who have made the healing iti their pro-
■ session, nnd whose pharmaceutic preparations
; will ever bo held in the highc-st estimation. '

Are the most sate, speedy, and successful rtiredy
ever discovered or offered to the public foi .ne
cure of z. certain disease.
It is truly a lamentable fact, that thousand*
fail victims to this horrid disease, owing to the in
judicious treatment of ignorant practitioners
who dose the system with that deadly poison
mercury—-ruin the constitution, and not unfre
quentiy send the afflicted sufferer to an untimely
grave.
Professor Vesprini’s pills are purely vegetable,
and have been used in the French Hospitals for
years, with a brilliancy of success that stands un
rivalled ; and since their introduction into the U
states th< ylm c superceded ail other prc-pai aliens .
in the cure of diseases frr which they are recoin*
