PROSPECTUS
COTTON GIN Maker and gin-
NEll’S GUIDE.
BY lE.ViPLETON REID.
THE importance of properly preparing the Staple
of any country or section is well kno n, but to
no country iff section is it of such importance as those
that grow and produce the,Cotton as their only staple.
Therefore, under this and other considerations, I pro
pose to publish by subscription my system and practice
in Cotton Gin making and Ginning.
With the advantage of many years, experience—
the sacrifice of much time and labor—and believing
that I have brought it nearer to perfect on than any
other person, l submit it to the public in a concise
and correct manner—with my late practice and with
many improvements beside.- the valuable one of the
application of th e Friction IVlicels, and new mode of
making the brush, (which I have patented in the Re
public of Texas) ; and the Brake or Agitator, my last
improvement, which much increases the speed n gin
ning, and improves the Cotti n. (It is well represented
In the plates and explained in the work.) The work
to contain about one hundred pages octavo, in good
binding, with ten well engraved plates, illustrative of
die system; of the Gin complete, plans, elevations,
sections, and figures in detail, with references aid de
scription of every part. Aiso plates of plan and eleva
tion oi'Gin House, Gear, position of the Gin, &e. cal
culations of gear in speeding the gin, with particular
description, explanation and directions to the Cotton
Planters in constructing the gin-house and gear, and
general management of the gin, cotton, &c.
With the rules and explanations given in the pro
posed Work, any good workman may execute the
whole plan well, and the Planter be enabled to judge
for himself in constructing his House, Gear, &c., ind
in selecting a Gin that is rightly made in every respect,
and of good materials; therefore being a great sav .ng
or gain to him, first, in cleaning nis crop in half the
time usually required; and in picking and moteing his
cotton well, so as to command the highest price in
market; in the durability of his Gin, which, if made
by the directions given will last to pck a thousand
hags of cotton, (this would require three or four com
mon made Gins to do the ame.) And further, theie
is no risk or danger of burning me House. Cotton,&c,
by taking fire from the Gin on the new friction wheel
plan, though you were to give it double the motion
Gins running on boxing would bear. Nothing will be
set down in the proposed Work but positive facts, be
ing the result (all prejudices aside) of fair and repeat
eh experiments, (a safe guide to mechanrcal know
ledge and skill.)
li'l were going to continue the Cotton Gin making
business in this country, I should not trouble the pub
lic with this Prospectus for 1 would much rather
work for money than write for it as in the first case,
I would no it strict justice,—in the latter, I must ask
allowance for its defects, and liberal patronage for its
support.
Terms— Ten Dollars, payable on delivery. Non
subscribers Twelve Dollaas.

TO 11E ENTITLED
GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED,
In a series of Original Pictures, on steel, with let
ter-press descriptions.
/ 2TIIE plan of publishing in successive numbers
JL pictorial works, illustrative of the scenery ol
countries, has long been a popular one in Europe and
is rapidly gaining favor in our own country.
The prospectus to issue such a work, devoted to
the scenery of Georg a, although novel, will undoubt
edly find universal favor, and he regarded as it is by
the editor, a plan at once felicitous and feasible.—
There is much scenery in our Slate, that is not sur
passed in beauty and sublimity, by that of any other
State in the Union The upper counties abound in
scenes, which need only to lie known to command the
admiration of all who love the beauties of nature.
Much of the scenery of toe north is inferior to our
own, but is yet visited by thousands simply because it
has been written,'sung and “ lionized ” by audio.s and
travellers, until its beauty lias become universally
known and appreciated. It is desirable that attention
should be directed to oui own resources of the pic
turesque in natural scenery,and when this is done, our
own and northern tourists will speedily render our
beautiful views as immortal as our language.
The south is charged with general indifference to
tile progress of Literature and the Fine Arts; ad
probably the strongest foundation for the charge is
ibund in her inaction in enterprises calculated to foster
these objects. The publication of the proposed work
will, it is believed, be an effective blow at this founda
tion, and a step towards the establishment of our lit
erary reputation, to which end much honorable effort
is now directed.
A third consideration, and the last which will now
be urged, is the intrinsic value of such a publication as
“GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED.” It will embody
the representations of the beautiful and sublime in
our S'ate scenery, and afford to all, at a trifling ex
pense, exact pictures ol our mountains, vallies, catar
acts, public buildings, &c., which they may or may
not otherwise behold, but which, in either case, would
afford peculiar pleasure.
The proposed work will be executed in a style su
perior to any simi.ar pictoral work in the country.
The plates will be executed on steel by eminent en
gravers, from original drawings, made expressly for
the purpose, by Mr. T. Addison Richards, of Augus
ta. The engravings will be accompanied with letter
press descriptions, prepared for the work, and in this
departmnnt the editor will secure, as far as possible,
the assistance and co-operation of our best writers. In
short, no pains will be spared to make the work a per
fect gem of its kind, to the end that it may meet a
welcome reception not only at heme but also abroad.
Conditions —“GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED”
will be issued in monthly parts, in the quarto form, at
§5 per annum in advance , or at 50 cents for each
part, payable on delivery.
Eaj:h part will contain two highly finished engravings
of Georgia Scenery, accompanied with letter-press
descriptions and historical facts, printed on large and
beautiful type on the finest paper,the whole enveloped
in a neatlv printed cover.
Anv individual who will obtain and forward six ad
vanced subsciiptions shall be entitled to a copy of the
work. Clubs may receive twelve copies to one ad
dress for SSO, or twenty-five copies for SIOO. in either
case free of postage.
Communications and subscriptions must be addres

i months after the date thereof, to your putt oners
jor order eleven hundred dollars for value received,
j and by the second of said notes, the'said Marshall and
Halstead promised to pay, twelve mouths idler the

dred dollars, for value received; and that by t e third
j of said notes, the said Marshall and Halstead promised

‘ the said Marshall and Halstead promised to pay,twen
j iy four months after the date thereof, to your peliiion-
I ers, or order, eleven hundred dollars, lor val. e receiv
ed. And that by the said deed of mortgage, they, the
i said Marshall and Halstead, for and m considratiou of
the sum of five dollars by your petitioners to them in
! hand paid, as well as for the better securiug tl.e pay
ment of the aforesaid four promissory notes, did bar
; gam grant and sell unto your petitioners their heirs
and assigns all the East half of dials aeie Lot
in the City of Columbus and County and State
aforsatd, numbered in the plan of said City, by
; the number two hundred and twenty-one, (£2l) to

! and pax able, but that neither the said Marshall and
Halstead, nor any person or persons on behalf of the
said Murshall and Halstead, have paid the said sums of
money therein specified, or any part the reof, hut have
hitherto wholly and entirely failed and refused so to do.
Wherefore your petitioners prey, that the said Mar
shall and Halstead he ordei eel by lire court to pay into
