Baxbacue and Discussion Yesterday.
A large number of citizens attended the Bar
liiiciie, given to Col. Robert McMillen at the
Lafayette Race Course, on yesterday. The
number was variously estimated at from eight
to twelve hundred. Mr. Pleasant Stovall was
appointed President, and George Schley, Lolm
i- Snead, and T. W. Fleming, Ksurs. VicMrre
ridenls, of the meeting.
It was arranged by the commiwee that Mr.
.Tames M. Smythe should open the discussion.
Ite then addressed the assemblage for about three
quarters of an hour upon the important topics
which are now agitating the public mind.
At the close of his speech, Col. McMillan was
introduced to the meeting, which he addressed
in the happiest and most effective style for about
one hour and a half. We have seldom listened
to a more able and eloquent speech. It was full
°* co g en t argument, withering sarcasm, rich an
ecdote, and llights of bold, eloquent and impas
sioned appeals, which elicited frequent and hear
ly bursts ol applause. We never saw an audi
ence more attentive or better pleased.
Col. McMillan, by this single effort, establish
ed a high reputation among our citizens as a
ready, pleasing and able public speaker. We
have not time or room to give even a synopsis
ol the positions taken by him. They were well
calculated to stagger the faith of his political op
ponents, who were present, and afforded the
highest gratification to his political friends. He
exposed the miscalled Compromise in its true and
deceptive colors, and sustained the doctiines
ol State sovereignty and the right of seces
sion, with impressive and impregnable reasoning.
Before closing his speech he took occasion to
Ldamp as a falsehood, the charge
WmaA& against hin»r>f beingjpn Orfmge tnWff*
At the close of' Col. McMilleivs speech, the
people assembled, partook of the Barbacue pre
pared lor the occasion, after which they returned
to the stand and calls were made upon A. H. 11.
Dawson, Esq., and John Phinizy, Jr., Esq.
Mr. Dawson excused himself for not speaking
at length, but made a few patriotic remarks
which were applauded by the meeting. Mr.
Phinizy then made a brief address which was
well received. Before adjournment it was an
nounced that Col. McMillan would address the
citizens of Richmond some time in the lourth
week of this month, at which time he and the
Southern Rights Party will be pleased to see Mr.
Toombs and his friends.
The Act to supqrcss the Slave Trade in the District
of Columbia.
At the request of several correspondents we
publish the following Act, being one of the so
called Compromise measures:
AN ACT to suppress the Slave Trade in the
District of Columbia.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Re
presentatives of the United States of America in
Congress assembled. That from and after the
first day of January, eighteen hundred and fifty
one, it shall not be lawful to bring into the Dis
trict of Columbia any slave whatever, for the
purpose of being sold, or for the purpose of being
placed in depot, to be subsequently transferred to
any other Slate or place to he sold as merchan
dize. And if any slave shall he brought into the
said District by its owner, or by the authority or
consent of its owner, contrary to the provisions
of this act, such slave shall thereupon become
liberated and free.
Sec. 2 And be it further enacted, That it
shall and may he law ful for each of the corpora
tions of the city of Washington and Georgetown,
from time to time, and as often as may be neces
sary. to abate, break up, and abolish any depot
or place of confinement of slaves brought into
Ihe same District as merchandize, contrary to
the provisions of this act, by such appropriate
means as may appear to either of the said corpor
ations expedient and proper. And the same
power is hereby vested in the Levy Court of
Washington county,if any attempt shall be made,
within its jurisdictional limits, to establish a depot
or place of confinement for slaves brought into
the said District as merchandize for sale contrary
to this act. Are roved Sepceinber 20, 1850.
hi connection with this subject we take the
opportunity to publish our comments on this bill
at the time we published the bill itself in the
Constitutionalist, of May 23rd, 1850 :
Obnoxiofs Features in the Compromise
Scheme.— ln pointing out some featurec in the
compromise as so obnoxious as to deserve the
sternest resistance on the part of the South, we
do not wish to be considered as suggesting diffi
culties with a view to defeat a compromise. We
are anxious for a settlement, and hope that such
modifications of the plan may be adopted as wi£l
secure it. We have one to suggest m referent*
io 11,.. bill ab lisbing the slave tradte in tin* DiA
triet of Columbia. As the bill stands it
and should not receive southern support or coun
tenance.
(Here followed the bill.]
Now the objectionable feature is, giving free
dom to the shire unlawfully brought in for sale
and speculation. This is too much like a con
cession lo 1 lie spirit of abolitionism.
The penalty under the law of Georgia, repeal
ed last session, was a line of SSOO, and imprison
ment of the owner so bringing in a slave for sale.
It is only by some such penalty on the owner, the
law should he enforced, if adopted at all. Even
this would be conceding more to northern pre
judices than is agreeable to southern men.
On first receiving intelligence of the general
features of the Compromise, being anxious then,
as we have ever been, for a settlement of the
strife, our feelings inclined strongly to its sup
port. The bills reported had not been perfected
or discussed. They had still to go through the
alembic of a thorough and jealous test of all their
features and provisions.
We cherished the expectation that the. spirit
of Compromise would prompt and concede such
amendments as would remove obnoxious features!
and make the bills such as would recognise anil
secure the rights of the South. In this spirit
we favored the Compromise before we had read
the bills reported. In this spirit we wrote and
published the editorial of the 22nd ol May, in
which we thus spoke of this District ot Columbia
bill:
As regards the proposed law in relation to the
slave trade in the district of Columbia, it is the
same that prevails in Maryland, and did prevail
in Georgia until it was repealed at the last ses
sion. It is in fact the law of Maryland, a slave
state, extended to the district of Columbia by au
thority of Congress, which is competent for that
purpose.
We were then under the erroneous impres
sion, as we had not read the bill, that the pro
visions were similar to the law ol Georgia,
which imposed a pecuniary fine, and also that
the Maryland law imposed a pecuniary line in
stead of liberating the slave.
Like thousands of others in Georgia, we were
so desirous of a compromise, that we felt a strong
leaning in favor of the one reported, before we
had time to contemplate its features and scru
tinize its details, with a view to its ultimate
hearings upon Southern Rights. In this voiy
case, on the very day we published the article
. of the 22nd of May, our attention was specially
called, for the first time, to the fact that the bill,
instead ot imposing a pecuniary fine, iueera
tf.d tiie slave. This prompted us the next
day. the 23rd, to publish the bill in full with the
r comments accompanying it. We looked upon
then, as we do now, as an insidious blow at
of slavery* But i1: woukl V dve been
of much of its force had it been ac
companied with concessions to the South, indi
cating the spirit of Compromise, and a desire to
do justice to the South, and in the same spirit we
would have been reconciled to the bill.
But this spirit was not exhibited by the non
slaveholding States, as the debates and the votes
in Congress on various proposed amendments too
dearly proved.
We claim no peculiar capacity to jump to cor
rect conclusions at the first glance, nor do w e
conceive it any merit to persist in adhering to,
and advocating first impressions in the face ol
more thorough examination, and oi all the light
* thrown upon the subject by discussions among
the first intellects of the country.

The Educational Convention.
Messrs. Editors . This Convention, like one for
similar purposes, held many years ago in Geor
gia, but within the recollection of .the writer, has
held its meeting, passed its quantum ot windy,
ad captandum resolutions; and, like its pie e
f.essor, has produced but little it any good, be
yond the mere fact of its assemblage; and even
this, a very questionable good. Indeed, it its
' mad scheme should be adopted, (ot which there
can, however, be but little dread.) then, much
r very much of positive, substantial evil, wmild
%. flow from its assemblage, as I shall hereattei at
tempt to show.
« % it has been a matter of wonder, why a con
vention, so numerous, and embodying, as it did’
- such an imposing weight of talents, should have
accomplished so little. In the solution of the
paradox, I give, of course, only my own opinions,
' perfectly contented, that they should be suffered
tp pass for what they may be worth. It is in
two circumstances, the number of its mem-
bers, and the high order of its character lor tal
ents, that we must look for the explanation. A
great invention of great men had met for the ac
complishment of a great object; and too many
seemed desirous to manufacture from its proceed
ngsj capital for posterior fame. A noble
bantJkig was to b’e begotten, and too many ap-
ambitious for its paternity. But the off
spring; following the stern laws of nature in cases
of divided and multifarious paternities, is likely,
by its physical disabilities, to vindicate its ori
gin, biasl the hopes of its parentage, and gratify
all the wishes of its enemies. The convention
was large—too large to make its action efficient.
Much of that kind of talent which is necessary
for efficient action, was also to be found in the
convention—l mean practical knowledge of the
wants and circumstances of our people, and a
thorough acquaintance with our present school
system, both by experiment and observation.—
But this order of talents was not brought into re
quisition. Talents of a higher rank, but with
less practical knowledge of the subjects to be act
ed upon, prevailed in the convention. Why these
things were so, it is not my purpose to inquire.
It is sufficient, that the facts show the reason,
why the convention accomplished little or noth
ing which is likely to be 'aluable to our State.—
Had this class of practical men been allowed
their clue weight in the convention, I entertain
no doubt, its action would have been very differ
ent.
I do not desire to pass a censure upon the con
vention, hut intending at my leisure, very brief
ly, to review its action, I have deemed it neces
sary to state my views of these facts, that what
I may say on the subject hereafter, may be the
better understood and appreciated.

It is stated that among the millions of farmers
in the United States, there is not one Jew. This
is a siugular fact if true. The ancient Jews
were a pastoral people.

Glorious News from Cuba—Gen. Lopez Victorious
r —Gen. Enna Killed—Lopez marching on Havana
I With 1500 to KOOO Mfn X \
By the arrival of the schooner Merchant
Capt. Westerndorffe, from Havana, which port
he left on the 22d nit., we have the gratifying
intelligence that Gen. Lopez has been successful
in every engagement which he has had with the
Spanish forces.
In the engagement on the 17th ult., General
Enna, Commander of the Spanish Army was
killed, with several other officers. The Spanish
also lost a large number of men.
Gen. Lopez’s forces were hourly increasing
by re-enforcements from the Cubans. The
Spaniards themselves represent his force at 1500
to 2000 on 17th. With this army Gen. Lopez
w'as advancing on Havana.
Capt. Westerndorffe saw the funeral of Gen.
Enna in Havana, on the 21st ult.
The affair was conducted with great promp
and solemnity. All the troops in the city para
ded on the occasion. The entire Spanish forces
then in Havana did not exceed some 700, the
great body of the troops having been dispatched
to meet Lopoz.
There was great excitement and much appre
hension in Havana.
We have not been able to obtain any letters.
Our files of Havana papers of course contain no
news.
The hospitals of Havana are crowded with
wounded Spanish troops. They report that the
Spanish officers and the soldiers w’ere utterly
surprised and dismayed at the rapidity with
W'hich the Americans fired, and the fatal effect
every volley made on their ranks. The Ameri
cans, they say, tired three and four times, to their
once.
l’rivate commercial letters report business in
Havana very dull—the excitement in the city
and neighborhood very great.
The outrages perpetrated on the fifty-one
Americans, after their murder, are fully confirm
ed. The Americans in Havana are very much
incensed at Mr. Owen, our Consul, in conse
quence of the indifference which he manifested
in reference to the fate of Col. Crittenden and his
command.
The body of Gen. Enna was sent by General
Lopez with a flag of truce to the Spanish camp,
in order that it might be buried in accordance
with the usages in honor of the dead.
By this arrival we learn also that the Spanish
steamer Pizarro w-as still fast agraund. There
w r as no hope of getting her off.
Preparations are making to fire 100 guns this
afternoon, in honor of Lopez’s victories.
From the Savannah Republican of the 2d inst.
we take the following :
By the Merchant we have received our regular
files of the Faro Industrial, to the 20tli ult.
We learn from this paper that on the 17th,
the Captain Ceneral distributed lwevets, Ike. to
thirty live officers and soldiers who were woun
ded in the battle of Las Rozas.
It also contains an official communication ol
the Captain General, dated the tilth, which states
that General Enna was dangerously wounded in
a battle with Lopez, at a place called Caramboln
We also find an official proclamation, whiclj
we have translated: r
. •‘Military- Secretary's Office. N
“His Excellency the Governor,
General of the Central Department, sends thl
Captain General the following official communiS
cation, dated Puerto Principe, 12 Aug:

resented as having been a trifling affair, which
had been promptly suppressed.
The rest of the ’ political intelligence is gene
rally unimportant.

! five hundred bales.
Arrival of the Cincinnati at New-Orleans.
Confirmation of Lopez Success.
New-Orleans, Sept. 1,6.30 P. M.
The steamer Cincinnati has arrived from Ha
vana with dates to the 25th ult. Her advices
confirm the accounts brought by the shooner
Merchant, arrived to-day at Savannah, including
the statement ol the death of General Enna,
i the considerable loss of the Spanish troops, and
J the advance of Lopez on Havana.
J The Cincinnati passed the I’izarro at sea.
! T he Storm.— On Saturday and Sunday night
| last, we were visited with a very severe storm
j olwind and rain. Thousands of trees were blown
dlwn and in many places the woods were com
pletely blocked up. Late corn is very much in
jured. We have conversed with many planters,
and have seen some cotton plantations, since the
storm, and all concur in opinion that at least one
third of the cotton crop is destroyed. We have
had heavy rains since the storm, which must do
still further injury to cotton. If these evils have
been general, we have no doubt the diminished
yield will be compensated by the increased price
consequent on a short crop.— Albany Ga. Patriot ,

Letter from Col. R. W. James.—Relative to the
Imputations Against Gen. Lopez.
We give below a letter sent to us by Colonel
R. W. James, brother of that gallant young man,
Thomas C. James, who was one of the fifty so
cruelly murdered in Havana. Col. James was
also the intimate friend of Mr. G. A. Cook,
(another of the murdered patriots.) having ac
companied him through a long and perilous ser
vice in the reconnoisance of the Isthmus of Tehu
antepec. He states facts which confirm the
opinion expressed by us, that the suspicious of
desertion, which embittered the last moments of
the unfortunate Young mea, though quite natural
to their positioiijp arose from a probable misap
prehension of Gen. Lopez’s real situation. This
letter also disposes of another charge, quite rife
among the enemies of Cuban independence—
that the young men were deceived by Gen. Lo
pez.
New Orleans, Aug. 25, 1851.
Editors Delta : Gentlemen —Though oppressed
with grief for the loss of a beloved brother, and
of my dear friend Gilman A. Cook, who were
brutally murdered in Havana, on the 16th instant,
by the Spanish authorities, I cannot refrain from
performing an act of duty, by stating what my
intimacy with Mr. Cook enables me to say,—
that, in going to Cuba, he was neither deceived
nor persuaded by any one, but acted from his own
noble impulses, which were always on the side of
the oppressed. His determination to accompany
my brother, with whom he had passed through
many dangers, and to whom he was warmly at
tached, was made hut a few hours before the ex
pedition sailed. He had no knowledge whatever
of the plan of operations. My hi other and my
self, from motives of friendship and regard, know
ing that he was the only surviving son of a large
family, endeavored to dissuade him from going:
but his mind was made up, and he said he would
shrink from no dangers which his old friend
Thomas C. James might encounter. lam satis
fied that he could have had no consultation with
Gen. Lopez before he left.
1 would also add my belief, as one who felt
deeply the effects of the calamity, that the com
mand of Col. Crittenden could not have been
deserted by General Lopez, but that the gallant
old man no doubt did all that mortal could do to
save the very flower of his little army, and that
their destruction was effected somewhat in the
manner described by Gen. Huston, in Sunday’s
Delta, —by the unexpected interposition of a
large Spanish force, between the party with Gen.
Lopez and the command of Col. Crittenden,
which had charge ol the baggage.
In justice to the Old Hero, I would oppose to
the charges of his assailants in this city, who ac
cuse him of treachery, my own, and what I be
lieve is the sentiment of nearly our whole peo
ple, that his conduct was brave and honest.
K espectfully, your obedient servant,
It. W. JAMES.
Crops. —The Sumter Democrat of the 23d,
says that the crop in that county “are a subject
of gloomy reflection.’’ The cotton crop, it is
feared, will be shortened at least a third. For
adequate supplies of corn, it says the people will
have to look to the west.
The Demopolis Argus of the 19th says, that
the prospect for a crop of cotton grows more
gloomy every day. The late rains, i: stead of
being beneficial, have produced the rust.—The
crop of its region, it says, will not be so large as
it was last year—which was a short crop. Scarce
ly any corn will be made, in comparison with
previous crops.
The same paper says that water is so scarce
in the county, that some planters, who live lour
and eight miles from rivers are hauling it thence
to their plantations.
A large meeting was held at Carrollton on the
10th instant to provide corn for the deficiency of
that staple in Pickeno county. It n.k)pted reso
lutions to the effect that the commissioners court
of the county raise funds by pledging the faith of
the county. This loan to be repaid by the sale
of the corn purchused by those who are able to
pay for it, and the balance to be raised by taxa
tion.
It was also resolved that the legislature be pe
titioned to legalise the action of the commission
ers; and that the vote of the people of the county
be taken on the second Monday in September—
polls to be opened at every precinct.
We think that no one can doubt that the corn
crop ol Pickens has fallen short.— Mobile Tribune,
28th ult.
T he Storm. —On Saturday night last we were
visited with quite a severe storm ol wind and
rain, which did considerable damage to the crops,
especially the new-ground corn and the cotton,
in this and the adjoining counties. No damage
was done in this place, but the rain so washe
the South-Western Railroad in several places, as
to prevent the cars Irom reaching here for two
or three days.—We are gratified, however, to be
able to state, that these breaches have been re
paint and the road is in excellent running order
again.— Oglethorj>c Democrat , 30 th ult.
The Crops. —We are informed that in nearly
all this county as well as Randolph and Tallapoo
sa, Cotton is very poor. Indeed as far as we can
learn, the crop of this section will be short, de
cidedly; the cry being, generally, that planters
will not make cotton enough—at : present prices
—to pay for the corn which, in consequence of
the drouth, they will be forced to buy. As to
corn, the middle and upper parts of Chambers
and all of Tallapoosa and Randolph that we
know any thing about, will fail to make bread.
In the lower part of Chambers and upper part of
Russell, the crops are better. Still there must be
considerable importations of corn from the West.
Unless our farmers are more provident this
fall than usual, and sow what, oats, rye, and the
like, extensively, we may expect tight times
next year. We trust, however, that they will
for once obey the dictates of common sense.—
La. Fayette (Ala.) Tribune, 29 th ult.
[From the N. O. True Delta, 28th ult.]
From Texas.
In the arrival of the steamship Mexico Cap
tain Place, we have Galveston papers to the 22d
inst., inclusive.
In relation to the cotton crop the News of that
date has the following:
“All advices from the interior of this State,
tend to confirm us in the opinion we have already
expressed, viz, that the present growing cotton
crop bids fair to turn out far beyond an ordinary
yield, both in quantity and quality. The pick
ing, thus lar, has been uninterrupted; in truth,
there is every reason to believe —judging from
present indications —that this year's picking sea
son will be ail uncommonly propitious one. We
were shown, this morning, samples of seven
new bales, which they have received within
the last few days; and we can without hesita
tion pronounce those samples as fully fair cotton.
Nine bales are all that have yet been brought
into this market; though it is believed that in
the course of the next .thirty days, the receipts
will have become quite liberal.”
The Huntsville Item mentions a specimen of
coal from the banks of the Trinity, which it says
burns freely, and is believed to be of good quality.
Coal has long been known to exist upon the
Trinity in large quantities, but its quality has
been a matter of dispute.
The editor of the Houston Telegraph learns
from Capt. Wood, that anew post has recently
been established on the Clear Fork of the Brazos;
and that the mineral wealth in the contiguous
country is supposed to be very great. Immense
beds of iron ore have been discovered in the im
mediate vicinity of the post; and ail extensive
deposit of fossil coal has been found within a
few miles of it. It is also represented that val
uable mines of copper and lead exist in that
neighborhood.
The San Antonio papers state that Jim, the
Delaware Indian, who has long been of service
to the whites as a guide and interpreter, was
drowned in the Leona.
The returns of the election (says the Civilian,)
come in slowly. Most of our exchanges for the
eastern and northern portions of the State failed
by the last mail, and we are nearly as much in
the dark in regard to the vote of those sections as
we were a week ago. Flying reports, however,
concur in stating that Scurry is elected to Con
gress while the old Judges ol the Supreme Court
are far ahead. The contest for Lieutenant Gov
ernor is evidently between Ward and Hender
son, though as yet Ward’s strong-holds have not
been heard from.
glThe Lagrange Monument has learn, from four
gentlemen who were in pursuit of A. W. O Con
nell, who murdered John Euren in the town ol
Huntsville, a short time since, that he was cap
tured by some of the citizens of Caldwell county
having in possession a horse, stolen from ther
midst, and was immediately executed.
The Tyler (Smith county) Telegraph says:
“Fine mercantile establishments, hotels, law of
fices and private residences are raising up as if
by magic; there is a number of industrious, en
terprising merchants here; and yet they are not
able to supply the demand.”

Anottyr Cuban Meeting in iVruj- Yorker-Great
Excitement, Another tremendous gathering of
the Cuban sympathizers was held in the Park
to-night. At least 10,000 persons were present.
Edward Blockman presided, and the meeting
was addressed by Enoch Camp, Thomas N. Carr.
Capt. Rynders and others. The language ol the
speakers were more violent and exciting than
on the previous evening, and as a consequence
the moil were raised to the highest state of en
thusiasm. Banners with bloodly mottoes were
distributed among the crowd, and every means
used to increase the feeling of resentment against
the Cuban authorities.
Cheers, screams and groans were heard on all
sides, and the latter especially predominated,
when the Courier, Express and Tribune papers
were alluded to. One of the speakers, in the
midst of a violent harrangee, begged the listeners
to do nothing rashly, and especially deprecated
the attempt to molest the Spanish Consul, as had
been threatened. “ His office," said he “ is at 119
Leonard street, but don't, my friends, do any
thing unlawful.”
After his speech, the sympathisers formed a
procession, headed by a band of music, and pro
ceeded up Broadway in the direction of Leonard
street, hooting,yelling,and threatening vengeance
The Spanish Consul kept out of the way. under
standing that a coat of tar and feathers had been
prepared for him. In consequence of threats di
rected against La. Chronica, the Spanish paper,
an extra police force of 300 men had been sta
tioned there.
New York, Aug. 26, 1851—10 J, P. M.—At
present, all is quiet, and there are no indications
of violence. Ihe mob has dispersed.

Cuban Sympathy Meeting in Philadelphia. —An
immense mass meeting is being held to-night in
Independence Square, to express indignation at
the barbarities committed by the Spanish author
ities in shooting the American prisoners. Twelve
or fifteen thousand persons are present. Colonel
John Swift was chosen President, with forty
Vice Presidents and twelve Secretaries.
Col. Swift spoke at some length, condemning
the course of the Spanish government, and urg
ing the interference of the United States.
John Cadwallader introduced resolutions justi
fying the course of the patriots, and recommend
ing the purchase of Cuba by the United States,
and war in the event of Spain's refusal to sell.
A repeal of laws prohibiting the armed inter
vention of American citizens lor the relief ol
those oppressed by tyranny, was also recom
mended. The rules of civilized warfare were
also urged in the treatment of prisoners, and
atonement demanded of Spain lor her recent
atrocities.
The President was requested to call an extra
session of Congress to consider these matters.
Mr. Cadwallader spoke earnestly in favor of
the resolutions, and was followed by others in
support of them.

Augusta Market, September 3.
COTTON.—During the past week we have hiul a good
and steady demand at improving prices, and all parcels
offered met with ready sale. The quantity offering,
however, is very limited, and the sales of the week, in
consequence, have been light. Planters, who hold near
ly all the Cotton now on hand, are firm, and show but
little disposition to sell at present prices. Prices have
advanced in this market, since our last weekly notice,
all of J cent, but even at this advance, there are but few
sellers. We quote

Middling Fair 8)
There has been no Fair on the market; a lot of this

(GROCERIES. —We have a dull market to report in
the Grocery line since our last publication. The stocks
of our Merchants are daily on the increase, and when
the Fall business sets in, the stock of Goods in Augusta
will be found large and better assorted than for a num

now a better opportunity of examining the Augusta

was attacked with the pneumonia, as the doctor I
who attended him a week called it, without being \
able to arrest it. By this time he had boeoino pros
trate, and from the violence of tho cough and so- j
ver, was expectod to die constantly. In this situa
tion wo discontinued all other medicine and gave
your Cough Drops; the first does helped hiiq much,
and aftc. epeating it a few tinsej the euugh and
fover subsided, leaving IJiu calm and tranquil for
the first tiir,o -jnoo the attack. The medicine was j
commut'd, and after twenty-four hours use, wo can- j
sidered him out of danger. From this lime he i
improved rapidly, and sofin recovered. In two
other cases in my family it proved highly beneficial
in curing copghs und colds. I have used your Yer- ]

WYNNE’S SUPERIOR FIRE-PROOF COT
TON GINS.
THE SUBSCRIBER respectfully informs the Cotton
Planters of Georgia and South Carolina, that he is
manufacturing a superior FIRE-PROOF COTTON QIN,
in Columbia county, Ga., I will inform tho Planter«
that I have invented a self-oiling box, which I us© to
ray Gins, and will gin from 75 to 100 bales with one time
oiling, free of heat. The above boxes are my own in
vention. I will warrant my 50 £aw Gins to gin from
1000 to 1500 pounds of Lint per day, witli good gear and
good attention, in tho month of September and October,
and make fair Cotton, according to the Cotton before
ginned, for $2,25 per saw, delivered at the purchaser’s
residence. I will warrant clean seed, and take out the
moats, and run as light as any other Gin now in use. I
will state that I can find a gentleman who has a Gin
from a Water Gin Factory ; he hauled his moats from
his Gin to one.of my Gins, and had his moats ginned
over on one of my Gins. After he run through, he sold
it last Fall for 11 cents por lb., some 300 lbs.; so it will
be to the Planter's interest to get Gins to moat well, and
leave but little lint on the moats, and pick the seed
clean. By such Gins, they will save in some 200 bales,
say 75 to SIOO.
1 will give any purchaser a trial on one of my Gins, to
gin ten bales, and if it dont give satisfaction, notify me
forthwith, and if I dont make it perform well, I will
take it back and put one in its place that will porform
well. All my 45 Saw Gins will run by two good mules,
if tho gear is good.
N. B.—ls any gentleman wishes to take my Gins,
please send in their orders and they shall be attended to
forthwith. My address is White Oak P. 0., Columbia
county, Ga. I will give a few references from those gen
tlemen tvho have long used my Gins as well as to the
quality of Cotton my Gins make,
I w ill make the follow ing banter to the Agents and
owners of Gins, where their Agents have interfered with
my engagements in this State or South Carolina. I will
run 11 of my Gius against 11 of theirs, for one hundred
dollars on each Gin, and one thousand dollars on the |
best 0 out of 11 Gins, to be decided l»y 12 gentlemen.
In the first place, to gin fast and pick the seeds clean,
and take out the most moats and leave the least lint on
them, and sample the best in Augusta, and turn out the
most lint per hundred pounds of seed Cotton, and run
the lightest; and I will bet one hundred dollars I can
gin on one of the same Gins from 1500 to 1800 pounds
in 12 hours : say all the Gins shall be 50 Saws, and the !
saw' shall be the same size, and run by the same gear j
and same mules, and drove the same speed.
THOMAS WYNNE.
N. B.—Always fill the self-oiling boxes with lard or j
tallow, if you want your Giu to do well, and run free '
of heat. T. W. !
CERTIFICATES.
Barnwell, So. Ca.. June 30th, 1851.
Mr. Tlios. Wynne —Dear Sir: In regard to my influ
ence, and relative to your fiins, it appears that the peo
ple are hard to be convinced, that your Gins arc the
best that is made. I have done and said all that I could
in praise of your Gins, and will continue to do so 1
have told the people that I had rather pay you what
your Gins cost than to have any other man’s make
given to me for nothing, and when I say so, 1 talk in
earnest and tell the truth at that. I sent you a certili
cate to have published, but have never seen it in the
papers. Directly after I sent it, I saw you had your pub
lication stopped. Dear sir, if you should see fit to ad
vertise your Gins again, you can fill out a certificate to
suit your own feelings, and put my name to it. The
reason why 1 give you the liberty to fill out a certificate
for me is because 1 do not think any tiling can be said .
in praise of your Gins unworthily. My Gin makes as >
good Cotton as any Gin can make. I gin every day 4
bales, each weighing 400 pounds, and do not* have to
push at that. 1 ginned last year upwards of 100 bales, I
with one filling of the self-oiling boxes, and there was !
enough oil in the boxes to gin five times the number of
bales, free of heat at that. If such Gins as that do not j
deserve praise, I should like to know what kind of a Gin j
would need praise.
Yours very respectfully. WM. ASHLEY.
Edgefield District, S. C., July 5, 1851.
I do hereby certify, that I bought a 50 Saw Fire-Proof ‘
Cotton Gin in 1849, of Mr. Tlios. Wynne, of Columbia j
county, Ga.: lam well pleased with its performance, j
and the quality it makes the Cotton, as I always get the j
highest market price, according to the quality before
ginned. I have ginned 4 bales per day, weighing 400
pounds each, with two horses with ease, and it runs free
of heat. I would remind all Cotton Planters who wish
to get a superior Cotton Gin, to call on the said Wynne, j
as I think his Gins are the best now in use.

superior, and wo consider equal to any brought to this 1
market. ADAMS, HOPKINS A- CO.

to in the above certificate of Adams. Hopkins & Co., id’
mine, was ginned on one of Mr. Thomas Wynne's make
of Gins. J. s. BRISCOE.
Columbia County, July 3rd, 1851.
1 do hereby certify, that I have been using one of Mr.
Thomas Wynne's make of Cotton Gins for three or four
years, and am well pleased with its performance, and be
lieve it to be one of the best Gins I ever saw. It makes
very fine Cotton, and gins fast, and picks the seed clean.
GUILFORD ALFORD.
Taliaferro County, Ga.. July 24.
Ido hereby certify, to the best of my recollection,
that I purchased from Mr. Thomas Wynne, of Columbia
county, Ga.. a42 Saw Gin in the year 1832. 1 have used
it ever since that time, and it is a very good Gin yet. I
have ginned on said Gin between 1500 and 2000 bales,
and it lias cost me only two whettings during that time,
and the first time was by said Wynne. I have always
been able to get the highest market price in Augusta for
the Cotton ginned on said Gin, according to quality be
fore ginned.
I would recommend all persons that want to purchase
a good Gin to try Mr. Wynne's, as they last a long time
with little repairing and work well. I think persons try
ing Mr. Wynne's Gins will be well pleased.
WM GUNN.
Let this certify, that I have used one of Mr. Thomas
Wynne's Cotton Gins for the last two years, and it per
forms to my entire satisfaction; and, as an evidence of
its good performance, I always got the highest market
price for my Cotton. As yet there is no perceptible
wear on the breast of the Gin. which i a proof of its du
rability. A few weeks ago 1 was in Mr. Tlios. Wynne’s
Machine Shop, and saw Gins in all stages of progression,
from the beginning to the finish, and from the goo 1 ma
terials that were put iu them, and the faithful worku,. u
ship, I can recommend them as first rate Gins.
Attached to these Gins are water boxes and oil feed
ers, which make them fire proof from friction. But
they have another proof, I think, (at least mine has it.)
which is not tlie least of all proofs and properties ot
Gins, viz: they are negro proof; for all the awkward
ness and carelessness of a negro, won't put it out of or
der.

I Mr Wynne— Dear Sir : 1 hereby certify, that tiro Gin
i I bought of you in 18:14, ten years ago. has ginned for
| me between 1000 and 1100 bales of Cotton. 1 have used
j no other Gin, have not had it whetted or repaired, and
, it is yet in good order. J would recommend Mr. Wynne's
Gin to farmers, as one of the best to be obtained.'

I do hereby certify, that 1 purchased a Fire-Proof Cot
ton Gin from Mr. Thomas Wynne, of Columbia county,
Ga., which runs free from beat, as muck so as any Gin
that 1 ever saw, and will run as long without heating
The said Gin performs well; it picks the seeds clean,
leaves a fine staple, and moats well, leaving no Cotton
among the moats. 1 therefore feel it my duty to re
commend the said 01ns to the public.

Dear Sin: On my return from Court 3 or 4 weeks |

absence, to see how the Gin performed which I purchased j
of you. lam sorry I was not preserß, I might have j
got some instructions that WQ'fild have been of some ad- I
vantage to me in using your Gin. as it dilfered some I
from any I ha.q seen before. It. however, performs up i
to ley expectations, and is superior to any 1 have ever
seen. If I, from the knowledge I my,v nave of your Gins !
was going to purchase mm, I would* not get ‘as largo a !
one as mine by 1,0 saws, it then would be as ny.,cn as one I

contracted a Cold which settled on tho Lungs before its.
