MANUFACTURED BY BATES, HYDE & CO., BRIDGEWATER, MASS. Agents. GEO. H. GRAY & Co., Boston. BAKER & LITTLE, Natchez, Miss. J. HEARD & Co., Yazoo City, Miss. The undersigned, Manufacturers of the EAGLE GIN-STAND, respectfully invite the attention of Cotton Planters, and others interested, to some of the recent improve ments in their Gin-Stands now offered for sale: The frame of the machine, which is so essential to the durability and accurate working of the parts, is constructed in a more permanent and substantial manner than formerly, having eight posts or stands, and is permanently secured and bound together with joint bolts. The "Detached Grates," which have been in extensive use for many years, have been improved in form, and adapted to other parts of the improved machine; they are chilled or hardened where most exposed to friction, and in their present form are believed to be. superior in many respects to any other form of grate. The "Improved Patent Brush," recently added to the Eagle Gin-Stand, is believed to combine all the advantages of the cylinder or close, and the winged or open brushes, avoiding the objection to which both these forms are liable; the whole supply of air for the draft of the Stand is received through openings in the Brush-heads, and forced out between the rows of bristles. In this way, a more full and uniform current is established; the motes, dirt and false seeds are more effectually disengaged from the fibres, and the ginned cotton, when delivered into the lint-room, has that peculiar "combed" or "carded" appearance so well known to dealers in that staple. There are many minor improvements, not necessary to be mentioned in this circular, which will be found to add to the merits of this machine. Ample evidence of the satisfactory operations of these Gins, may be obtained from their agents. Orders addressed to us directly, or to either of our agents, will receive immediate attention.
