! r '-‘l iiintcriula ot ihe best (jiinlity nrul being supplied with
the best of workmen. Besides he is now making con
siderable addition to his machinery, which w ill enable
Inm to furnish ns good gins, and on as reasonable
j terms, as any factory in the State.
1 he subscriber Inis the exclusive right of Simpson’s
latent, (for applying metalic rubber to drums, pid lies,
olc.) b>r some fifty of the h *st cotton growing counties
in the State ; which lie intends applying to his gins
when required. Audit is certainly of great advant
age to the cotton gin , for it not only requires one third
h*ss nower to propel it, where the metalic rubber is ap
plied but the gin, running geer, and every thing eon
nected with it, will last as much longer in proportion.
1 believe tnere isnoone of common sense but will ad
mit, that the lighter machinery of any kind can run,
the longer it will last.
It npjiears that a great many persons prefer what is
called a w riter box, to all such 1 would say, that it is not
worth one cent for the purpose recommended—that is
| to prevent the gin from taking fire, for this simple rea
°n ’ n gin never takes fire from the box, but invariably
I from the brush inside the gin, (when it takes fire at all.)
But as every man has his own notions, I will furnish a
box of my own invention (to all who may require it,)
■ equal to the patent water box.
—Gins sent to any part of the country, and in
j ‘‘very case warranted to perform well.
Letters addressed to the subscriber at Macon, Ga.,

While inferior belles you see
Pick up husbands merrily.
Boar rows when they choose to pair
Meet their matches anywhere ;
But tlie Phopnix —sadly great—
Cannot find an equal mate.
Earth, though dark,enjoys the honor
Os a moon to wait upon her ;

Cannot boast n satelitc.
A Talc of n broken Heart.
Mr. Chandler while ediior of the Philadelphia United
Mutes Gazette, was once residing for a brief sime, at
Cape Island, where as usual, he was wnlehine every
thing around und drawing uselul moral lessona from all
he saw The following is one of the beautiful nnd touch
ing incidents to which he alludes.
| A tale that he tells of a careworn, hope-destroyed
lemnle. vainly frying the waters for a broken heart will
much the feelings of every reader. It is a common sto
ry shame on humanity that it should lie—and the nar
rator of it well asks : “When will these things cease
|to be? Will not woman’s heart and womans pride
have an estimation as high, at least, as the bales of
| merchandise in a warehouse ? The theft or abuse of
the latter is a crime that has its penalty written down
m the statue book of the Commonwealth, but public
i sentiment hns no general visitation for the former.”
‘Fhe story,strongly illustrative of the difference be
, tween the affection of u woman and that of a man,
! runs as follows;
I A strong attachment had grown up between the fe-
I male and a young man’of the neighborhood, whose
i condition in life was considerably below her own, but
whose gifts and attainments seemed to give as.-urnnce
of future usefulness, honor and position ; and if the
father of the young woman did not encourng thentfen
tionsoftheyouth.it is probable that he believed the
good ot both would be promoted by a less devotion of
‘.heir time to each other, and that a union following the
fulfilment ot some of the promises of his life would he
tetter for both than one that was formed in those prom
ises Obedience was rendered by the female, and the
young man entered upon some pursuits that seemed to
hold out hopes of success. I know not what lie engag
ed in, but it is certain that there was a constant corres
pondence between him and the young woman, an oc
casional visit, and no strong disapprobation of the fath
er, though on more than one occasion he intimated a
doubt of the stability of the young man’s principles.
1 Some tew yeais after that, this young man became
involved in difficulties that led to criminal proceedings
against him, and finally lie was sentenced to the .State
Prison. It was said by some that his was a hard case ;
thnt the verdict w as one o: those spasmodic movements
of juries, hy which they make compensation to society
, for a Mowing nine guilty to escape by condemning one
comparatively innocent. The efforts ot the young wo
j man (ami, it is wiid, her promise to her father that she
| would have no further correspondence W'ilii the culprit)
| induc’ and tiie father to make interest with the Governor
and have the young man pardoned. He found means
. to satisfy her that he was wholly guiltless, at most only
j imprudent, in the matter that led to his trial and con
i detonation. The father became incensed ut the re
newal of the intercourse, and obtained from his daugh
ter a promise never to marry the man without his con
'|eiit. i lie stale ot affairs at home became unendura
ble. \\ itli some little possessions of her own, the
young woman left her father’s house, went to the city,
took boarding in a respectable family, and added to her
limited means of support by the use of her needle and
pencil, and her knowledge ot music. The young man
visited the family, and it wa9 believed that a part ts
the hard earnings of the young woman was given to
him.
He had the meanness to accept money from such a
source. And she was at length admonished by an ac
quaintance, that her affections and her confidence were
abu-ed—but when did woman ever believe aught a ainst
one sin- ioved ? or aught a9 bad as others asserted ?
Twice that young woman was obliged to change her
. residence, from the unwillingness ot families to receive
the visits of her friend, but never once was lucre a
I thought injurious to her reputation. Her anxiety nnd
her constant labor were undermining a constitution
1 originally excellent, and the pale cheek and sunken
eye seemed to indicate also a lurking, growing appre
hension, that she had sacrificed her home duties and
; her home comforts, for one unworthy such a price—how
unworthy she did not dream
Dn ti**? 16th of last .May Mic received ;i letter, inform-
I * n ter that her father had died, and that his tost words
were forgiveness and blessings for her. He died, too,
intestate, and she w*as the inheritor of a considerable
I portion of his large estate. When the first gush of grief
• was over, the anguish that a daughter ever feels at the
j death of a father,she recollected (perhaps soaner) that
j she was now released from her promise not to marry
i without her father’s approval, and that her menus were
ample to support herself and Aim, and to allow him (as
of course he easily could do) to live above, and to out
live, the suspicions to which his poverty nnd misfor
tunes had exposed him.
The next day bntone she learned that the man who
hud her love, and for whom she was now holding her
wealth had married a female of indifferent character,
and was living regardless of her, her interests, tier affec
tions, and her sacrifices.
1 need not go further. The heartless scoundrel is on
ly one of a class. The poor heart broken sufferer is
also one ot thousands that are around us, hiding their
griefs, and thinking themselves half compensated for
their wrongs, by their success ill concealing the effects.
1 he seashore has no (lower to assuage a wounded
spirit like that young womans. Affection outraged,
confidence abused, and womanly pride insui ted, can
not nil be restored, all satisfied, all compensated, by
years of washing in these waves, that are now dasiiing
to the shore Indeed, it would seem that the grave is
the only covert for such an affliction.

We take the following admirable page from a book

I “ No, 1 know you don’t Loity,” he answered, bit

Tire following beautiful story is literally true, and

The New Factory—Diversity ol hauK.
We paid a visit one day this week, to the new fac
tory just established by Gindrat Sl Cos., in this city.
We took wane pains to inform ourselve*ns to the char
acter of the work to be carried on, nnd the machinery
employed. Tiie factory will be prepared to do all
kinds of wood-work done by machinery and all kinds
ofiron-work for steamboats or mill*. They have al
ready at work two of Woodworth’s planing machine*
j for planing, tnngneing and grooving planks and hoards
of all description from 4ilw to 4 inches thick, and all
J widths from 30 inches down. One of these machines
i dresses both sides and joint* or tongues and grooves
i l*>th edges, all at the same time. They have also otic
ot Daniel’s planing machines for trueing and taking the
1 wind outol plank and scantling ; one horizontal planing
machine at which two men can work at the same
time, planing blind-rail* and nil sash stuff, doing ‘
| the work of 20men ; one tenon machine, hy which
j one man d<es more work than 50 men,for cutting ten
; ons, blinds, eishe?,/loom,dt-c.; ones iw-tenon mr.chine
for scantling or timber; two morticing machines, one
1 for heavy and the other for light woik, one of which
l can do more work than 20 men with mallets and chis-
I els. Besides these, there are several circular saw s, both
j for ripping and cutting off, and various other machines
for working wood in every shape, making moulding*
of all sizes and patterns; several turning lathee for
: wood ; machines for making sash blinds nnd doors
complete, a saw for cutting scrollwork or any cir

that halt a dozen more similar establishments were in

The present depressed state of die cotton market ia a
• ilhnent proof, il any were wanted, of the impolicy of
having the whole laboi and industry of* country invest
ed in tlie production ol one article. The reduction of
the price of cotton since the commencement ol this sea
son, Will cause a loss probubly ol from five to eight mil
lion* ol dollars in the present crop, to the South A
loss I.f tins amount nflecta die whole community,
an t produces |br a lime a general stagnation in nil
la mess Had tlie amount of capital and later
now devoted lo raising cottcu a e been partly distrib
uted in other branches lin . v, man itactures, mi
ning and rayamg provisions. ;h, ■ sudden changes in
the priqe ol cotton would lie not onlv leas likely to hap

whole community as they now do. (lur plan
ters rniinot be expected to change all at once a mode
of cultivation to which they have been accustomed so
long, but they should ctufeavoi to do so gradually. By
speaking thus we do not mean that any ul the actual
capital now invested in the rireung of cotton should be
withdrawn Hut we mean that while the planter may
continue to invest the same amount of capital in the
cultivation olautton, lie should apply to some other
mode ol invcstim iu equally, if nm luoicpivbiuble w liat
