IE offering to the patconago of the public, a now
literary paper, wo are perfectly aware th\t wo
are bat repeating an ol\*lried experiment. The result,
however, wo would fain believe, will be dill'. rent.
Wo are, it is true, eoneeioua of tho. pj?e -sion
of no talent or ability superior to that of our pre licensors,
but we rob, (perhaps, indeedv with too
rauoh of the ardor of all experiment*,) upon tUc increaeiug
taste of the ago of literatme ; a taste, the
vitlence of which is before us in the number of periodicals,
engaged solely in its cultivation?itf the
lyeeuios, the libraries and academies .leveled to science
and learning. Whilst the North and the
West are thus asstdiously employed in the excin
piary task of mentul improvement, we will not suppose
that tho South intends longer to bear the
weight of that heavy incuinbns which heretofore
has dheluied it in an intellectual slumber more
lasting and nrofomid th 11VI lltftV tiKuntitnl nnn urhi.lk
erewhile enwrapped the so von sleepers of Ephesus.
It is with & hope thus founded, and with an in
tenlion if wo cannot win success, at least to deserve
it; that notwithstanding the uniform failuro of those
who have preceded us. nto have ventured to claim
the patronage and to labor for the applause of the
public. The stake shall be played for; how the
game is to end, time only can determine.
Our object will be to render the columns of the
Bulletin both nsehal and amusing. For this pur.
pose, while one portion is devoted to original EssayV
Tales and Plpems, furnished from time to time
by our correspondents and collaborators, another
portion shall be occupied by selected matter culled
from every spot of interest and instruction, in the
va?t field of literaturo.
Tho productions of the press shall pass in leview
before us, and on every work which merits our
notice, an impartial criticism shall be bestowed.?
To light literature and to learned sciencv shad alike
l*e meted their due portion of censure or of praise,
and it shall not be our faults if our patrons do not
know the intrinsic value of every hook, (ut least iu
onr own opinion) before they begin to read.
He, gays Or. Franklin, who is good at excuses, is
seldom good at any thing else; and the same wc
opine may be said of promises; lest there lore our
readeis come to w>ra? such conclusion as ibif! we
will, without further ado, make our bow, and leave
theui in future to judge from our lubors whether we
do, or do not, deserve their patronage.

while he inost raioi'qlly appreciates the unprecc1

that it is his anient resolution to meet it with a correspondigg

's under the supervision of Mr.. J. Watson, whose t
purifications for the task are too well known to re- c
piirc our testimony. ,
This department of the Ladies' Companion, has j
aver command'd a large share of attention, and has ^
been looked upon with no little interest l>y its readers,
and more especially the Ladies, whom the ?
(ublisher is in the highest iogrce anxious to please,
t will continuo.lo he a subject of more than usnul
care to him, and to the Professor under whose supervision
it is placed, to make that portion of the
magazine allotted to music, more than ever doscr?ing
of the countenance of every lover of music. It has '
ever been and will continue to be the desire to have I
all pieces of music printed correctly and free from 1
errors.
THE WORK IN GENERAL.
Over every department an equally careful super- I
vision will be strictly exercised by the Editors, and '
all appropriate expenditures will lie liberally bestowed i
as it is the design ofthe publisher, with the aid of his
contributors and tho advice of his friends to make I
the Lidh s' Companion distinguished for the beauty '
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 cmbelishments.
It is the deter inalion of the publisher to use eve- i
ry means to maintain the superiority which the Ladies'
Companion has obtained. For four years he j i
has steadily pursued a 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 Bellcs Lcttrcs and the Fino Arts;
and no exertions or cx|>ensc will be deemed too great
to render the work equal to any other extant. The
flattering and gencVal testimonials of nearly every
conteinparary journal in the United States, and in
fact, many on the other side of Che Atlantic, have
strongly asserted the Undeniable claims of the Ladies'
(Jompanion to the support of the public generally.
There is no work that gives its readers such a
great return for their subscriptimi.
Tho l'rize Articles will all be published during the 1
year. These articles will comprise the successful
candidates for the premiums of one thousand dollars
awarded by a committee of literary gentlemen in
August last.
Terms?Three Dollars a year in advance, or four
dollars during the year.

ler Gin, no otber knd having been in me prevous 1

are found to improve the quality of the Cotton, by I
mere perfectly cleaning it. Tbey can be made to
contain from 90 to ltiOaawa in a aland, and whether
mall or large, one hand will be sufficient to attend
Iberu. The Gin* have mechanical feeders ahd
hoppers attached to them, which free the cotton
Iroui leaves, trash, dirt, &c. before it can reach the
awa, and by the thorough hackling operation it
reoeivee froiu the feeders, which make two revo
lull tins to one ot the saws, U la almost in a lialt
gined state, before it descenda to the saw By a
very sirhple arrangement of a screw to each set ot
gaates, on which the hoopers rest, and through
which the teeth of the .feeders pasa, they can be
made to ieed alow or faat to auit the condition of
the cotton at the time. When made double, the
a&wa are placed on twb aets of oylindora and turn
upon each other in opposite directions, and are
cleansed by two seta of brushes that have four revo*
lutions 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, n* in the ordinary Gin, and
may be propelled by horse, steam, or water power.
It may also be propelled by iron running gear.
The torce required to work it, is about the same as
that necessary to move an equal number of aawsin
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 gmileiiv n have been so kind as to give

cotton ginned by it, and pronounce it better clean- 1
sed, and the staple less injured, than any cotton '
that ever came under my observation. It is com- 1
pletely ready for the breaker without the aid of the >
blower, and would, therefore, save the first process 1
in manufacturing the article. 1 consider cotton 1

crops brought into the Manchester market, and 1
cleansed by common Gins. Yours, very resp'ly. ,

It is desirable, when planters give orders for Gins,
they should accompany them with their views in
regard to the arrangement of saws, breasts, brush- (
ps, &c. It is found they difler in opinion. Some ,
desire sows of larger diameter than others. The
moRt common size is 9 or 10 inches ; but some wish
Iherp 12 inches. Some wish 5 or G rows of brushes
on an axle, while others do not want nioVo than 4
at most. Some wish saws with 8 or 9 teeth to the
Inch, while others want 10 or 11. 'With so mnch
discrepancy, we prefer they should, at the time of
giving orders, furnish a statement of their wishes, 1
ind the inanufacturerers con fulfil them in every 1
particular. Where it is left to our discretion, we 1
dial! inakethrm on the most modern and approved <
jinn. An order can be executed, from the time it I

HISTORY AND PERFORMANCES. L
Flatlerei w.-s br<d by Mr. Nowell, in 1831, and B
run in England, by Sir Mark Wood. lie was ini- B
ported by Mr. Wndsworlh, of Gencseo, New York,\r
l?y whom he was placed in the stable of Ilobt. L.
Stephens, Esq , near the Union Course, Long Island,
who trained and run him in this country.? (
His performances, both in England and in this coun-! u
trv, are creditable to his noble stock. His first np- ' (
|ienriincc in rmgiami was in ins throe year old lorm _
(in 1834) foi the renewal of the two thousand guinea "1
stakes, at New Market, when he ran a capital so- J
eond to Glencoe, who lias l?ecn imported into this S
country at a high figure. The following is tho re- j n

Flattcrci was now purchased for Mr. Wndsworth
ipd shipped for America. After an utiusnally -long
passage, during which he never laid down, he was
landed at New York, the latter part of July, 1836,
was put in training without the possibility of preparation,
but, notwithstanding, ran two very creditable
races, one of which, mile heals, he wen,*, beating two
Eclipse colts and (i filly by the same horse. In tho
following spring, he was beaten by Mingo, three
milo heats, running second to him, and beating Cadmus,,
by Ecli pfo, Sydney, by Sir Charles, and tho
Jewess, by Henry, in tho first heat, when he was
drawn.
Ol this race the ftcw York Spirit of the Times
contained the following account: "Cadmus had
the pole, Mingo the out side. They got away in
a cluster, the Jewess making 'a spurt'between the
stand and first gate that quite used her up, w hen
Cadmus and Flatterer took up the runuing, Mingo
and Sidney lying well up, the first under a hard
pull. Finding Cadmus disliked the pace, Willis
held him up after the second mile and Mingo
headed the field with ease. Flatterer maintained
his stride to the end, running n very handsome
second to Mingo, who, for a eingle'lhrce miles
can pull to the fastest horce in the country, and
come home ahead. Cadmus could not run* in ll c
mud?and his friends did not expect much from
him, though he ran Sid the next heat, Flatterer
having lucn withdrawn after a very creditable
performance. Snnford rode him in tip top style,
and had he carried lGblb. would have flung the
mud in the face of the best of them."
Flatterer did not start in the fall nor succeeding
spring. He was purchased by W. L. Corbin Esq.
of Va. and placed in the stable of J. S. Corbin,
Esq. of Fniiheld, who furnishes the annexed account
of his promise:?"In regard to the promise
Flatterer ga\e, while in training by n o, of making
a good race-horse, I can with sincerity, and 1 think,
truth, snv that it was decidedly flattering. In his
mile (rial he beat "Whig" (a very fast horee) several
lengths, and exhibited very ?ccd symptoms ut
"the finish"of an ability to run a long distance successively.
1 witnessed a race on Long Island,
lost spring twelve months, between him and several
other very sharp nags, two mile lunts, in
which Flatterer was a goon dual ovci "the foot of
any of thorn. J considered him then a better horso

In a letter to the owner, dated New York, Sept.
r>tli, 1837, W. I.. Corbin remarks, "ilefhrc toueliig
on your proposition, I will remsik l'oryot:r ?dicution

Flatterer is yet untrained as a stallion?but as
II his slock in this country have established a high
jputation as cure foul getters, it is expected ho
'ill maintain it.
The undersigned repeats the nsmianrc that the
Lriclcst and most careful attention will be paid to
lares sent to Flatterer, and pledges himself to dcver
them in good order and condition when taken
