AStory Of the Cotton Gin.

Some man, says a Georgia pa
per, viii! yet make reputation
in writing the romance Of the
cotton gin. We ali know how a
Yankee tutor came to teach the
children Of General Nathaniel
Green in Georgia, riding from
Connecticut in sulky, and
seeing the difficulty attending
the handling of cotton, then pro-
duced in small quantity, put his
wits to work and evolved
the gin now in use. / heard
a story the other day from Mr..
John M. Gurread, Of Savannah,
who | think got it from Mr..
Nightingale, the son-in-law of
General Greene.
The story runs that one day
at a dinner given by General
Greene, some curiosity was ex-
pressed to see the invention of
young Whitney, which was then
being operated in a little house
near by. After dinner the COM
pany went out to the house and
Whitney was exhibiting his
seed machine, when it was dis
covered that he had to stop il
every few minutes in order tc
clear the cotton away from the
cylinder. Mrs. Nightingale
observing the annoyance that
this caused and the embarrass-
ment of the young inventor
with the quick wit Of woman
took her silver comb from hel
hair, and pressing its teeth gent
| ly against the cylinder, cleared
the lint away as it turned. tx
this gentle act of. courtesy the
world is indebted for one OF the
most valuable ideas connected
with the gin.
Colonel Tom Howard con.
tends that the invention Of
Whitney was really very unim.
portant, and consisted simply
in the use OF one cylinder in.
stead Of two, substituting benz
teeth for the second cylinder
The really important progress
in the cotton gin was made by
a Wilkes county man, who sub.
stituted the saw for the benz
teeth. 1t took a long time il
those days to get patent, anC
while waiting Tor it the invent
or was terribly worried by mel
who were trying to get tn,
points Of HIS invention that they
might pirate it.
Colonel Howard says tina
some men disguised themselve'
as women, and then gained al
entrance to the old out house

obtained a knowledge of it
parts. Neither Whitney no
the Wilkes county man made
any profit out of the invention

Government had been paying $500 per
