GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE subscriber will continue the manufacture
of GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
| embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
customers for their liberal patronage heretofore.—
: The estimation in which his Gins are held may be
! known from the fact of his having sold more than
j two thousand within the last three years; probably
ten to one over any other factory in the State.—
j This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
■ counted for, by his being the first to introduce the
: late improvements, and keeping the lead, by year
! ly adding new ones. His first and second improve
| roents, made the quality of cotton perfect, though
| some were rather slow*, his third made them suffi
ciently fast, it then only remained to make them
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually*, by several new improvements the pre- j
sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right of the
State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish
Reed’s Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to
be ten times more durable than any other, by* those
who have made a fair trial of them, and are infalli
bly secure against fire by firiction. His fine Gins,
wall gin Mastodon Cotton us well as any Saw Gin
can. His agents will visit planters generally, and
exhibit specimens of his late improvements, and
point out their advantages, in time, for all to en
| gage, and be supplied before next ginning season, ’
or, engagements can be made by letter, directed to 1
him at Clinton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins, will
be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in any
part of the State, except the Cherokee counties,
w’bere they will be left at the Rail Road depot,
most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted
to perform well if used according to the printed
directions sent with each.

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS!
IT WILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and
Ji; South Carolina, I have taken the shop formerly
occupied by S. R. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also
inform them that I have engaged Mr. Crenshaw,
who will superintend the manufacturing of them.—
My gins shall be made of the best materials, and I
cun say with propriety they arc the cheapest gins
sold in the Southern States, taking the workman
ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to
make cotton equal to any made oft any other gins
in the Southern States, giving the true staple of
the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
clear of moats. My gins will be delivered at the
purchasers residence free of charge uud warrant
ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed to the subscriber Will meet
with prompt attention; repairing-done in good style
and at short notice- All old gins of 10 inch Saws I
will repair and put them on improved principles,
and also warrant them to make as good cotton as
any of the improved gins, and at a much less co»t
than a new gin. J. D.IIA3IMACK.
Crav, fordville, Ga. ; May 4.
I will say to the planters who may [favor Mr,
Hammack with their patronage I will exert ail the
ability I have in superintending the shop; and every
gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order,
and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and from my long experience in the
business, 1 know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
though agents from other shops have resorted to
the contemptible practice ol slandering me and
saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation of what I say, I offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used mv
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if
required. S. R. CRENSHAW.
Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for
two years, and 1 very cheerfully recommend it to
the Cotton planters of Oglethorpe and other coun
ties of Georgia. It turns off sufficiently fast to
make good Cotton—it being 50 saws—will throw
out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the
Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at
each of my sales than other sales of those days,
and it has been pronounced by those considered
competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully.
F. MERIWETHER.
April 24th, 1847.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1847
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
viile. I consider it one of the best Gins I have
ever seen. Two small mules will gin, with a great
deal of ease, three bales per day, and 1 do not
think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in
making fine cotton. In fact, Mr. Crenshaw has
sold a great many gins in this county and Elbert,
and I think that every man who has purchased is
perfectly satisfied. Ail of his gins which have been
sold in this county, and they are not a few ran light,
pick fast, and what is better than all, when the cot
ton is carried to market it dis for the very highest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Crawfordvili.e, May J, 1817.
Mr. J. D. Hammack —l -certify that I bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saw anti
friction Cotton Gin. which performs well and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin, in mv opinion.
P. G.RHOME.
Tills is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. S.
R. Crenshaw’s improved anti-friction Cotton Gins
last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin 1
have ever used. I think it superior to the Carver
Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. ol clean cot
ton per day, and runs very light.

their Boats, built cxpr’esslly for the route, have suc

this fact alone should, and we believe will, be satis
factory to the Travelling Public, that the Chesa

We were prepared and fully expected to meet
with strong opposition from the Monopoly Line, but
had hoped that the warfare would have been con
ducted in a business like and honorable way, and
that their Cards would hare contained none of that
misrepresentation and false inuendoes with which
they are filled againsj the Bay Line. However, we
care not, knowing that we have the cheapest and
most pleasant route; pledging ourvelves to convey
the travelling public by our scheldule .we are willing
to abide the issue and leave the result to their
choice.
Any* further information will be cheerfully given
and tickets can be had, by application to the under
