Y_ .MlsiUiu can be made double, or single. If e *1 made double, they reduce labor, and gin just R louble, the quaulity of cotton over the single cylin? '] ler Gin, do other fcnd having been in use prevous i Lo this patent; and whether single or double, they | are found to improve tbe quality of the cotton, by g more perfectly cleaning it. They can be made to contain from SO to 100 saws in a stand, and whether small or large, one hand will be sufficient to attend them. The Gins have mechanical feeders and J hoppers attached to tiiein, which free the. cotton from leaves, trash, dirt, t&c. before it can teach the saws, and by the thorough hackling operation it receives troui the feeders, which make two revo* lutions to one of the saws, it is almost in a half 1 gined state, before it descends to the saw. fiy a very simple arrangement of a screw to each set ot gantes, on which the hoppers rest, and through which the teeth of the leeders pass, they can be J made lo iced slow or fast to suit the condition of tho cotton at the tunc. When made double, the saws are placed on two sets of cyliudcrs and turu 1 upon each other in opposite directions, and are cleansed by two acts o'i brushes that have tour revo* ] lutions to one of two saw. The two cylinders can ho Hotjiohori HO as lo cnnblp thp nlnnlnr to run nn? or both ut pleasure, although embraced with feeders, 1 &c. in out* stand The whole is put in operaliop with a drum and band, as in the ordinary Gin, and may be propelled by horse, s tea in, or water power. 1 It may also be propelled by iron running gear. The force required to work it, is about the sume as 1 that necessary to move an equal number of saws in the common Gin. This Gin has been put in i operation in New Orleans for two or three weeks, and its success tested in the presence of a large I number ?1' planters, merchants and others, and | t received their general approbation . i Several grntleun n have been so kind as to giye ' i the Patentee their written opinion tespeciing the i merits of the Gin. A number of others could be added, but the following are deemed sufficient: < From his Excellency Gov. While of Louisiana. I New Orleans, Feb. Ml, 1KJ7. 1 ] Dr. A.
