- A PROSPECTUS
OF TUB
LITERARY BULLRTIIf. *
Charleston, ?S. C.
IN offering to the patronage of the puhlie, ? new
literary paper, wo are perfectly aware th*t wo ;
are but repeating an oil-tried experiment. The re- J
auli, however, we would lain b.-lieve. will be diffident
Wo aro, it is true, oonscioua of fhc*
of no talent or ability superior to that of our predecessors,
but wo rely, (perhaps, indeed, with too
MttCh of the ardor of all experimental) upon the increasing
taste of the age of literatoro ; a taste, the
evidence of which is before us in the number of periodicals,
engaged solely in its cultivation?in the
lyceums, tho libraries and academies devoted to sci
ence and learning. Whilst the North and the
West are thus assidiouily eaployed in the exem- ,
plary task of mentul improwmfiit, we will not sup- j
pose that tbo South intends longer to bear the .
weight of that heavy incumbus which heretofore ,
has whelmed it in an intellectual sluuiber more (
lasting and profound than that physical one which (
ercwhile enwrapped the seven sleepers of Ephesus. (
It is with a hope thus founded, and with an in- ,
tention if w? cannot win success, at least to deserve ,
it; that notwithstanding tliemniform failure of those
who have preceded us, we have ventured to claim [\
the patronage and to labor for the applause of the !<
public. The stake shall be played for; how the
gamo is to end, time only can determine. ;,
Our object will be to render the columns of the
Bulletin both useful and amusing. For this pur- '
pose, while one portion is devoted to original Essays,
Tales and Poems, furnished from time to time
by our correspondents and collaborators, another (
portion shall be occupied by selected matter colled
fram^very spot of interest and instruction, in the
vast field of literature.
The productions of the press shall pass in leview
before us, anion every work which merits our ,
- entice, an impartial criticism shall be bestowed.? :
^ To light literature and to learned science shall alike
1* meted their due portion of censure or of praise,
and it shall not be our faults if our patrons do not I
know the intrinsic value of every book, (at least in
onr own opinion) before they begin to read.
He, says Or. Franklin, who is good at excuses, is
seldom good at any thing else; and the -satnc we
opine may be said'of promises; lest therefore our
readeis come to worn* such conclusion as this, we
will, without further ado, make our bow, and leave
them in future to judge from our labors whether we
do, or do not, deserve their patronage.

MM. Axn 8. STarnsm.
WILLIAM W. SXOWDIN.
Assisted uy many of the most popular writers.
Since the publication of the May number, the demand
for the Ladiea' Companion, < as been uu- jreccdented
and beyond the most sanguine anuci|>uions.
At the con mencement of the volume an adiitional
numlier of copies were printed, which was
considered at the time adequate to satisfy all the
orders which might be received, and leave a considerable
numbe/ on hand tor subsequent calls The
publisher is more than graiified in stating that the
whole edition wus nearly exhausted before the issuing
of the seventh number of tho 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, be has determined io double lh?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 correepondigg
liberality on his part to merit its continuance.
SPLENDID STEEL ENGRAVINGS
by our best artists, ccotnpany C'ch num?er? illustiated
by Talcs and spirited Sketches?which will,
as heretofore, continue to tie magnificent and fur
superior to those published in any other magazine in
Ainciica.
The Ladies' Companion contains a larger quantity
of reading than any other magazine issued in this
country, and its subscription price ?s 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 Lncics' Companion, in order to show his
appreciation ofthc public favor already extended to
hnn so liberally, lias secured the aid of
Mrs. Ann S. Stephens'
late Editor ol the -'Portland Magazine," ami author
of a series of the most beautiful and- popular tales
ever presented to an American public. No lady
Kossessing grc dor variety of talent, or better crIcuIfoil

have been selected from the galaxy of female genius
which is ?he glory of our country. In addition to
the poweifu! tale nts of i\Irs. Stophens, the proprietor
has secured a list of contributors, which combined |
will render the Ladies' Companion one of the most
interesting and talented magazines of the day.

With many others who will oocasionally contribute
to the >ages of the woik, an I every exertion will be
made to render the Ladies' Companion, what a work
devoted to the female portion of the community
should he, interesting, us ful and instructive.
THE MUSK AL DEPARTMENT
18 under the supervision of Mr. J. Watson, whoso
qualifications lor the-task are too well known to require
our testimony.
This department of the Ladies' Companion, has
ever commanded a large share of attention, and has
been looked upon with no little interest by its renders,
and more especially the Ladies, whom the
publisher is in the highest Jcgrce anxious to please.
It will continue to he a subject of >norp than usn.nl
care to hini, and to the Professor under whoso supervision
it u placed, to make that portion of the
magazine al'ottcd to music, more than ever deserving
of the countenance of every lover of music. It has
ever tv-cn and 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 super*
vision will lie strictly exercised bv the Editors, and
all appropriate expenditure* will be liberally bestowed
a* it is the design ofthc publisher, with the aid of his
contributors and the advice of his friends to make
tho Ladn h' Companion distinguished for the beauty
and accuracy of its typography?ibc variety and
high tone of its literary urticicfe?iho quality and
value of its music?and the unequalled splendor of
it3 pictorial embelishments.
It is the deter ination of the publisher to use every
means to maintain the superiority which the Ladies'
Companion has obtained, Eor four years he
has steadily pursued a course ol improvement, and
he flatters himself that his present facilities are such
as tojjivo the Ladies'Companion eminent advantages
overall other publications of its character.

with a drum and band, as in the ordinary Gin, and
tnay be propelled by horse, steam, or water power.
It mar 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 sawRin

operation in New Orleans for two or three weeks,
and its success tested in the presence of a large
number of planters, merchants and 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:

what I think of your improved Cotton Gin, 1 have
to say, that I saw it work on Saturday the2T>th inst.
and was very much pleased v ilh its periormance.
The mere fact of its self-f vdmg, seems to me to
bo a very xalunble iinprovt meat; and besides, the
qudlity of the cotton, as it comes out of the process,
appeared to me to be better and cleaner thnn
from the common Gins in use, nnd that it saves
considerably in laboh Hespee.tfully, &c..
