Ann 8. Stemuns. Wiixiah W. Snowobn. Assisted by many of the most popular writers. jjfince the publication of the May number, the deCT mand for the Ladies' Companion, has luen unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At4.ho commencement of tlte volume an additional number of conies were nrinied. wliicn was oonsidered at (hit lime id^uate to satisfy all the order* which might be received, and leave a considerable number on hand lor subsequent calls. The publisher is more than gratified in stating that the whole edition wus nearly exhausted before the issuing of the seventh number of the volume; and at this time but very few complete sets remain on hand, to supply the numerous orders which are daily received from every section of the U. S. In consequence of this great unforseen increase of new subscribers, he has determined* to double the number of impressions for the subsequent year; while he most gratefully appreciates the unprecedented encouragement extended to the Ladies' Companion, and at th* same time, he begs to assure the readers of the magazine and the public in general, that it is his ardent resolution to meet it with a correspondigg liberality on bis part to merit its continuance. SPLENDID STEEL ENGRAVINGS by our best artists, ccompany each numncr?illustiatcd by Talcs and spirited Sketches?which will, as heretofore, continue to be magnificont and far superior to those published in any other magazino in America. The Ladies' Companion contains a larger quantity of reading than any other magazine issued in this country, and its sultscripiion price is only three dollars a year, while the great combination of talent secured for the coming year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. ITS LITERARY CHARACTER ! Will undergo considerable change, as the publisher of the Laeies* Companion, in order to show his appreciation of the public favor already extended to hiui so liberally, has set urcd the aid of MRS. ANN S. Stephens' late Editor of tho "Portland Magazine," and author Df a scries of the most beautiful and popular tales Bvcr presented to an American public. No lady DOaanaainrp rrrn-ilnr vnriafu r\f f nlnnf nv !v>Wnr r?n fated to aid in conducting a ladies magazine, could have been selected from the galaxy of female genius which is the glory of our country. In addition to the poweiful talents of Mrs. Stophens, the proprietor lias secured a list of contributors, which combined will' render the Ladies' Companion one of the most interesting and talented magazines of the day.

THE MUSICAL DEPARTMENT [s under the supervision of Mr. J. Watson, whose ]unlifications for the task arc too well known to require our testimony. This department of the Ladies' Companion, has wcr commanded a large share of attention, and has >een looked upon with no little interest by its rcaiers, and more especially tho Ladies, whom the publisher is in the highest Jegree anxious to please, ft will continue to he a subject of more than usnal :are to him, and to the Professor under whose supervision it is placed, to make that portion of the inarrazinc allotted to music, more than ever deserving jf tTie countenance of every lover of music. It ha.', ever been an<l will continue to be the desire to have all pieces of music printed correctly and free from errors. THE WORK IN GENERAL. Over every department an equally careful supervision will Ive str'cti,' exercised by the Editors, und all appropriate expenditures will be liberally bestowed as it is the design of the publisher, with the aid of his contributors and the advice of his friends to make the Ladies' Companion distinguished for the l>eauty and accuracy * of its typography?the variety and high tone of its literary articles?the quality and value of its music?and tho unequalled splendor of its pictorial embc-lishments. It is the determination of the publisher to use every means to maintain the superiority which the Ladies' Companion has obtained. For four years he has steadily pursued n course ot improvement, and he flatters himself that his present facilities are such as to give the Ladies' Companion eminent advantages overall other publications of its character. From the foregoing it will be perceived that the Ladies' Companion embraces every department within the range of Belles-Lcttres and the Finn Arts; and no exertions or expense will lie deemed too great to render the work equal to any other extant. The flattering and general testimonials of nearly every contcmparary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side of the Atlantic, have strongly asserted the Undeniable claims of the Ladies' Companion to the support of the public generally.

They can bp u>ade to contain from 20 to 1 GO saw* in ft stftnd, and whether mall 6r large, one band will he sufficient to attend them. The Gins bare mechanical feeders and hoppers attached to them,, which free the cotton from leaves, trash, dirt, Ao. before it can teach the saws, and by the thorough haclcling operation it receives from the feeders, which make two revolutions to one of the saws, it is almost in a half gined state, before it descends to the saw. By a very simple arrangement of a screw to each set of gaates, on which the hoppers rest, and through which the teeth of the feeders pass, they can be made to teed slow or fast to suit the condition of the cotton at the tiine. When made double, the aaws 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 ao 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 inay be propelled by horse, steam, or water power. It may also be propelled by iron running gear. The force required to work it, is about the same as that necessary to move an equal number of saws in the common Gin. This Gin has been put in operation in New Orleans for two or three weeks, and its success tested in the presence of a large number of planters, merchants aud others, and received their general approbation Several gentlemen have been so kind as to give the Patentee their written opinion respecting the merits of the Gin. A number of others could be added, but the following are deemed sufficient: From his Excellency Gov. White of Louisiana. New Orleans, Feb. 27,1837. Dr. A. Jones?Sir, In reply to your enquiry, whatl think of your improved Cotton Gin, 1 have to say, that I saw it work on Saturday the 25th inst. and was very much pleased with its performance. The mere fact of its self-feeding, seems to me to be a very valuable improvement; and besides, the quality of the cotton, as it comes out of the process, appeared to me to be belter and cleaner than from the common Gins in use, and that it saves considerably in labor. Respectfully, &c. E. D. WHITE. From Mr J. Compton, a wealthy planter, resident in the Parish of Rapide, Louisiana. Dr. Jones?Dear Sir, I have examined your Patent Cotton Gin, with feeders, &c. And have seen it in operation, and approve of it so highly, that 1 have taken the liberty of ordering one for my plantation in time for the next crop. Yours respectfully, J. COMPTON. New Orleans, Feb. 28, 1837. From Mr. A. Longer, an experienced and eminent Cotton Broker of New Orleans. New Orleans, t eb. 28,1837. Dr. Jones - Dear Sir, in answer to your note of this morning, I will state, that 1 have carefully examined your new Patent Cotton Gin, and have found it far superior to those generally used in this Slate it cleans the cotton much better, and gives it a much better appearance. 1 hope, for the good of the country, it may become duly apprcriatid. Yours sincerely, A. LONGER. From Messrs. Forestall, High &. Co. Commission M ITIVrVIIUUiB* Dr. A.

Very respectfully, your ob't servants, FORSTALL, HIGH &. Co. New Orleans, March 1,1837, From Cel. Ueerie Evens, ci planter ef Wil-J cox county ; signed also by Dr. David J. Means, a planter of Green county, and Mr. Wm. C. Clifton, a planter of Dallas county, all of Ala. Dr. Jones?Dear Sir, In reply to your inquiry concerning your inquiry concerning your new Patent Cotton Gin, we deem it no less a pleasure than a duty to say to you, emphatic ally, that we consider it a most decided and valuable improvement. We have examined it carefully and seen it in successful operation, and we feel no hesitatancy in recommending it to the attention cf planters generally. Most respectfully yours, &e. HARRIS SMITH EVANS, DAVID J. MEANS, wm r. nl.lfton New Orleans, March 7,1637. P S.?As a further testimony of my confidence in the succass of your Gin, you will please order two Double Gins of 60 saws in a 6tand each, for my plantation, and oblige yours truly, 11. S. Evans. 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 M kans. Mr. Clifton also stated, that if he had not just before bought two new Common Gins, that lie would likewise have oideied one or two of the Patent Gins for his plantation. From 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, nccoinpanied by a specimen of the cotton, ginned by your Patent Gin, 1 beg leave to observe, that it exhibits a decided iinprorement on the usual process of ginning; delivering the staple uninjured and free troin nap or trash, clean and of good co~ lor; tnereDy giving tlic article an additional value. Those favorable impressions of the advantages ol your Patent Gin, have been confirmed by subsequently witnessing it in operation. The utility ol the double cylinders and saving of labor, will be readily perceived anil properly appreciated by the intelligent planter. Feeling a deep interest in the success of all improvements tending to bqnefitthe inipoitant staples of our country, 1 trust that yours will meet with the encouragement it justly merits.

Lewis, Williams it Co., and near five years spinner in the house of Messrs. Sand ford &. Gnenc. I have seen your Coiton Gin in operation, qnd have examined the cotton ginned by it, and pronounce it belter cleansed, and the staple less injured, than any cotton that ever came under lay observation. It is com pletely ready for the breaker without the aid of the idower, and would, therefore, save the first process i in manufacturing the article 1 consider cotton cleansed by your Clin, would command from one : to two cents on the pound more than the averagf ciops brought into the Manchester market, nnc . cleansed by common Gins "Yours, very resp'ly, , N Orleans, March 0, GEORGE SENIOR.

It iH desirable, when planters give ordeis for Gius. they should accompany them with their views iti regard to the arrangement of saws, breasts, brushes, &c. It is found they differ in opinion Some desire saws of larger diameter than others. The most common size isO or 10 inches ; but some wish them 12 inches. Some wish 5 or 0 rows of brushes on an axle, while others do not want more than 4 at most. Some wish saws with 8 or 9 teeth to the inch, while others want 10 or 11. With so mttch discrepancy, we prefer they should, at the time of giving orders, furnish a statement of their wishes, and tne matiufacturerers can fulfil them in every particular. Where it is left to our discretion, we shall make them on the most modern and approved plan. An order can be executed, from the time it is received, in the space of eight or nine weeks and the Gin in tjiat time placed in the hands of the factor. To be in time for the next crop, all orders ought to be in the hands of the manufacturers by the first or middle of May; except for plantations where they arc late in commencing to pick or gin ' cotton.
