HORSE POWER FOR GINNING COTTON.
This Power has been three times as loDg at work as any applied to Ginning, and with what success let
the following certificate show: .
Muxedqevxlle, February 14,1871.
T. C. NISBET, Esq.—Dear Sir :
I am using one of your Horse Powers for ginning my cotton. It has been in use about three years, and
lias ginned about four hundred bales of cotton. I think it well adapted to ginning. I gin two bales a
day on a forty-saw gin and with two mules. My gin is situated in an old negro cabin and the power is
placed outside. J. A. OBME.

G. M. Stokes vs. Duncan O. Johnson. As
sumpsit and motion for new trial, from Lee.
MoCay, J.—Where it appeared from the
record that Stokes, a country merchant, had,
under a contract with a neighboring planter,
advanced supplies and money to make a crop,
and he was to have control of the same, and to
bo first paid from the proceeds ; that during tho
summer Duncan O. JohnsoD, commission mer
chant at Savannah, also advanced supplies and
money to the planter, with notice of Stokes’
claims, it being understood tbnt cotton would
bo cent to them at Savannah for sale, out of
which they would be paid; all the parties be
lieving tbnt a crop of 300 or 350 bales would be
mado ; that on October the 15th, after 39 bales
had been sent to DnncAn O. Johnson, Stokes
wrote him a letter stating that the planter
wanted somo money, and desired his cotton to
bo sold as it arrived, nnless they would advance
upon it, nnd hold it for a better market, and
adding, that as the planter owed half of them,
it was proposed as a mutual arrangement, that
as any cotton was sold, Duncan O. Johnson
Rhould pay its expenses, and tbe balance should
be divided between them, to-wit: Duncan O.
Johnson, and Stokes, on their insurance debts;
that afterwards other cotton was sent to Dnnorih
O. Johnson, and they sold tho whole, nay SO
bags, paying expenses and sending half the
proceeds to Stokes, and retaining half on their
debt, which ot the time, was thus discharged;
that Duncan O. Johnson, expecting further
shipments, from the expectation of the crop,
and from third understanding of Stokes’ letter,
made further advances to tho planter.
That Stokes, finding the crop wonld be only
175 bales instead of 300 or 350, by direction of
the planter, and to save himself, sent forward
the balance of the cotton to other Savannah
merchants, and sold the same, and took the
whole of tbe proceeds on his own debt.
Held, That there was nothing in the letter of
Stokes of October 15th, to bind him to send
forward the whole of the crop to Dancan O.
Johnson, and it was error in the court to charge
the jnry that he was so bound.
Held further, That under all the facts as set
forth in the reoord, the verdict was sustained by
the evidence, and the court erred in granting a
new trial.
