b9r A California paper tells the following
of Lieutenant Derby, 'sJohn Phenix," the
humorist:
"One evening at the theatre, Phoenix OBJ
served man sitting three seats IN front
whom he thought he knew; he requested
the person sitting next to him, to punch the
other individual with his cane The polite
stranger did so, and the disturbed person
turning his head a little, he discovered his
mistake-that he was not the person he took
him for Fixing his attention steadfastly
on the play and affecting Inconsistencies of
the whole affair, he left the man with cane
to settle with the other for the disturbance,
who being wholly without an excuse, there
was, of course, a ludicrous and embarrassing
scene-during all of which Phoenix was pro-
foundly interested in the play. At last the
man with the cane asked, rather Indignantly,
"didn't you tell me to punch that man with
my stick ?"
ntYes'
"And what did you want?'
cd wanted to see whether you would
punch him or not

building will be enlarged, and every accommoda-
tion afforded that can add to the comfort of the
students, or facilitate their progress.

COTTON SAW GINS.
Straight Ribs, VS.. Crooked, Uniformity Of


Roll, &c.
4 LTHOUGH the advantage Of the straight rib
~ in the COTTON GIN has been discovered for
than twenty years, yet it has not been sufi-
ciently known or appreciated by the planter. The
advantage consists simply in this: that the ribs,
when worn can be moved down to where they are
not worn, which answers the purpose of new
sett of ribs. Three moves can be made, which
gives four wearings which is equal to four setts of
ribs. So that purchaser having in view prospec-
tive expense, would lose the price of three setts
of ribs if the ribs of his gin were not movable.
Any planter with common intelligence can move
the straight ribs himself, and thus obtain all the
benefit Of new sett of ribs.
The greatest uniformity can be obtained in the
roll by giving the ribs the proper angle, the effect
of which is, to throw the weight of the roll more
upon the saws than upon the seed board, and by
adjusting the secdboard so as to prevent the seed
when once detached from re uniting with the roll;
this improvement has been made by the subscri-
ber within few months.
With regard to fast picking gins, the greatest
amount Of lint is obtained in two ways First, by
having long teeth lying as nearly parallel to the
verge of the saw as possible, so that the teeth en-
tering the ribs so much point foremost they are
obliged to carry all the cotton through that they
get hold of. A fifty saw gin with these sort Of
teeth on nine inch saw has gined eight bales ptr
day. The second plan is, to form the breast so
that the teeth meets the ribs nearly at right angles
and thus packs the cotton into the teeth of the
saws This plan is very straining on the saws,
and causes q much heavier draught. Whether the
cotton is injured by a. overwraught speed the
planters must judge for themselves. The subscri-
ber will furnish to the planters of this and join
ing Districts Cotton Gins equal in durable value
to any in the country. Delivered at Chester, York.
or Charlotte, or any landing OH the road for 50
per rsaw. The brushes of my gins are covered with
tin 4; which adds much to their strength and dura-
bility. e-
All orders promptly attended to.
