From the general embarrassment ol the times ; the deranged slate of the domestic exchanges, and the difficulties attending the disposal of Bank Bills out ot their immediate circles of issue, we have been solicited by fegents and Venders to postpone the drawing of the above scheme, for a short time, | unm me present crisis in me anairs ot tlie conn- ' try shall have passed a ay., We have therefore yielded to therte solicitations, and postpone the drawing ol the Alexandria Lotte1 ry, ci.ass E, from the 27th of May, to the 23d day of September next, when the drawing will positively take place. Adventurers having purchased tickets in said class, and who d<? not wish to hold them until the drawing, can have their money returned by the agent 01 broker from whom they purchased?or can exchange them for tickets in classes to be drawn at an earlier day, as it may suit their pleasure. The Managers have consented to tnis postpone ment with extreme reluctance, as it has always been their policy to draw every scheme at the time announced. The unparalleled state of the country, is the only cause of this one departure from the usual custom All the other schemes noiv before the public,'will be punctually drawn on the days nnnounced.

JON Fs* PATENT COTTON GIN. ra^HIS Gin can be made double..or single. If I made double, they reduce labor, and gin just double, the quantity of cotton over the single cylinder Gin, no other knd having been in use prevous to this patent; and whether single or double, they .ire found to improve the quality of the cotton, by more perfectly cleaning it. They can be made to contain from 20 to 100saws in a stand, und whether unall or large, one hand will be sufficient to attend tliein. The Gins Irave mechanical feeders and hoppers altaehed to thein, which free the cotton troin leaves, trash, dirt, &,c. before it can teach the saws, and by the thorough hackling operation it receives from the feeders, which make two revolutions to one of the saws, it is almost in a half gincd state, before it descends to the saw By a very simple arrangement of a screw to each set of gaatcs, on which the hoppers rest, a>>d through which the teeth of the feeders pass, they can be made to feed slow dr fast to suit the condition of the cotton at the time. When made double, the saws are placed on two sets of cylinders and turn upon each other in opposite directions, and are cleansed by two sets of brushes that have four revolutions to one of twe saw. The two cylinders can be detached so as to enable the planter to run one or both at pleasure, although embraced with feeders. &c. in one stand. The whole is put in operation with a drum and band, as in the ordinary Gin, and may be pTopelled by horse, steam, or water power. It inny also be propelled by iron running gear. The lorce required to work it, is about the snme as i Lhat necessary to movean equal number of saws in I, Ihe common Gin. This Gin has been put in operation in New Orleans lor two or three weeks, ind its success tested in the presence of a large aumber of planters, merchants and others, and 1 eceived their general approbation. Several gentlemen have been so kind as to give : he Patentee their written opinion respecting the 1 merits of the Gin. A number of others could be ldded, but the following are deemed sufficient: ' from his Excellency Gov. White of Louisiana. 1 New Orleans, Feb. Ml, 1H37. I Dr. A. Jones?Sir, In reply to your enquiry, 1 vhat I think of your improved Cotton Gin, I linve o say, that 1 saw it work on Saturday the 25th inst. ' ind was verv much nleased with iln nprl<inimni>o 1 rhe more fact of its self-feeding, seems to ine to >e a very valuable improvement; and besides, the ]u?tlily of the cotton, as it comes out of the pro:pb8, appeared to me to be better and cleaner thnn rom the common Gins in use, and that it saves sonsiderably in labor. Respectfully, &c. E. D. WHITE. From Mr J. Compton, a wealthy planter, resident in the Parish of Rnpide, Louisiana. Dr. Jones?Dear Sir, I have examined your Paent Cotton Gin, with feeders, &c. And have ?een it in operation, and npprove of it so highly, hat I have taken the liberty of ordering one for ny plantation in time for the next crop. Yours respectfully, J. COMPTON.

Dr. Jones?Dear Sir, In reply to your inquiry ^vFuvcrmng your inquiry concerning your new Patent Cotton Gin, we deem it no less a pleasure than a duty to 'say to you, emphatically, that we consider it a most decided and valuable improvement.

As a further proof of my confidence in your Gin, you will please order me a Double Gin, of the same size,'for my plantation, and oblige yours respectfully, D. J. Means Mr. Clifton also stated, that if he "hdd not just belore bought two new Common Gins, that he would likewise-have ordeied one or two of the Patent Gins for his plantation. . . Fiom Mr. H. F. M Kenna, of the house of Brander, M'Kenna & Wright, of New Orleans. Dr. A. Jones?Dear Sir, in reply to your note, accompanied by a specimen of the cotton, ginned by your Patent Gin, 1 beg leave to observe, that it exhibits a decidtd improvement on the usual process of ginning; delivering the staple 'uninjured and free from nap or trash, clean and of good co? lor ; thereby giving the article an additional value. These favoiable impfeSsions of the advantages of your Patent Gin, have been confirmed by subsequently witnessing it in operation. The utility of the double cylinders and saving of labor, will be ^ J!l ? * ' * reuuuy perceived and properly appreciated by the intelligent planter. Feeling a deep interest in the success of all improvements tending to benefit the important staplefa of our country, 1 trust that yours will meet with the encouragement it justly merits. Very respectfully, your ob t serv't, 71. F. M'KENNA. New Orleans,March G. 1837. From Mr. G. Senior, a Machinist of New Orleans. Dr. A. Jones?Dear Sir, in answer tc your inquiry of my opinion of your Patent Cotton Gin, I beg leave to slate, thai 1 was fifteen years engafred in the cotton factories of Manchester, Eng. and, and during four years of that time, 1 was foreman in the house of Messrs. Lewis, Williams & Co., and near five years spinner in the house of Messrs. Sandford & Gnenr. 1 have 6een your Cotton Gin in operation, and hove'examined the cotton ginned by it, and pronounce it better cleansed, and the staple less injured, than any cotton that ever came under my observation. It is completely rea?:y for the breaker without the aid of the blower, and would, therefore, save the first process in manufacturing the article.
