New Articles Of Oil Cloth.

For aultich hdte Occurred a Pdtent

protect the cotton pcker's garments from the sa-
turating effect Of the dews on the leaves OF the
cotton plant in the early hours of the morning.
OmCLoTm CAP6rs, with Hoods, to cover the head
This article will suit both cotton and sugar plan
tiers, as it can be used u rainy weather, the hood
shielding the Negroes head and neck completely
from the wet.
The use of Oil Clothing cannot be too highly re-
commended to planters, as they will hnd by eXpe-
rence that it prevents great deal of sickness, oc
casioned by damp clothes, and it will allow the ne
groes who are often kept back from the cotton field
until the dew the leaves has dried, to get out
earlier in the day, gaining thereby an hour or two
of picking to each hand.
Planters commission merchants and others, are
invited to call and examine my stock Of goods,
