?r. PROSPECTUS OF TlfK LITERARY ULLLETH. Charleston, 6'. C. IN offering to the patronage of the public, a new literary paper, wo are |n:rfectly aware that we , are but relating an oft-tried experiment. The ro-, 6ult, however, we would fain believe, will be differ- > ent. Wo are, it is true, conscious of the possession ! of no talout or ability superior to that of our predecessors, but we relv, (perhaps, indeed, with too much of the ardor of all experiments,) upon the increasing taste of the ago of litcratuie ; a taste, the evidence of which is bofore us in the number of no rio-ticals, engaged solely in its cultivation?in tlie j lyccu ns, t!ie libraries and academies devoted to t>cienco and learning. Whilst 'the North and the j West are thus assidiouoly employed in tlie exemplary task of mental improvement, tve will not sup- j pose that tho South intends longer to bear the I weight of that heavy incumbus which heretofore has whelmed it in an intellectual slumber more < lasting and profound than that physical one which crewhile enwrapped the seven sleepers of Ephesus. It is with a hope thus founded, and with an intention if we cannot win success, at least to deserve it; that notwithstanding the uniform 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 . gainc is to end, lime only can determine. Our object will be to render the columns of the I Bulletin both useful and amusing. For this pur- ' pose, while one portion is devoted to original Es-, says, Talcs and Poems, furnished from time to tim<* by our correspondents and collaborators, another , portion shall be occupied by selected matter culled from every spot of interest and instruction, in the j vast field of literature. The 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 science shall alike be 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 book, (at least in onr own opinion) before they hegin to read. lie, says Dr. Franklin, who is good at excuses, is seldom good at any thing else; and the same we opine may be said of promises; b-st therefore our readeis come to some such conc'usion as this, we will, without further ado, make our bow, and leave them in future to judge from our labors bethcr we do, or do not, deserve their patronage.

THR MUSICAL DEPARTMENT Is under the supervision of Vlr. J. Watson, whose qualifications lor the task are too well known to require our testimony. This department of tlie Ladies' Companion, lias ever command d a large share of attention, and has been looked upon with no little interest by its readers, and more especially the Ladies, whom the publisher is in the highest legree anxious to please. It will continue to he a subject of more than usnal care to him, and to the Professor under whose supervision it is placed, to make that portion of the magazine al'otted to music, more than ever deserving of the countenance of every lover of music. It has ever been and will continue to he 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 be strictly exercised bv the Editors, and all appropriate expenditures will beliberally 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; beauty and accuracy of its typography?the variety and llitrb fnnr* nf ila lilnrnru nrtlclnL- llin naiilif.. o...l ---r, - -....j value of Us music?and the unequalled splendor of its pictorial embellishments. 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 a course of improvement, and he flatters himself that his present facilities arc such astogivo 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-Lettres and the Fine Arts; , and no exertions or expense will be deemed too great , to render the work equal to any other extant. The t flattering and general testimonials of nearly every | c.ontemparary journal in the United States, and in I fact, many on the other side of the Atlantic, have j strongly asserted the Undeniable claims of the Ladies' Companion to the support of the public generally.

If tnade double, they reduce labor, and gin just iouble, the quantity of cotton over the single cylinder Gin, no other knd having been in use prevous to this patent; and whether single or double, they ire found to improve the quality of the cotton, by more perfectly cleaning it. They can be made to I contain from 20 to 100 saws in a stand, and whether mi all or large, one hand will be sufficient to attend them. The Gins have mechanical feeders and hoppers attached to them, which free the cotton ; Iroin leaves, trash, dirt, dec. before it can reach the ' saws, and by the thorough hackling operation it i receives from the feeders, which make two revolutions to one of the saws, it is almost in a half gitted slate, before it descends to the saw liy a very simple arrangement of a screw to each set ot opiates, mi which the hoppers rest, and through which the teeth of the feeders pass, they can be made to feed slow or lust to suit the condition of the cotton at the lime. When made double, the saws are placed on two sets of cylinders and turn upon each other in opposite directions, and are cleanse I by two sets ot brushes that have four revolution' to one of twe s.?\? . The two cylinders can be detached s" as to enable tin planter to run one or both at pleasure, ;?:i!ii. ;>, .1.deuced with feeders, &(.. in onosfintl.

After an unusually 'long tnssage, during which ho never laid down, he was andeu at New York, the latter part of July, lb35, ivas put in training without the possibility ot prepaation, but, notwithstanding, ion two very creditable aces, ono of which, inilo heats, he won,* beating two Eelij.se colts and a lllly by the same horse. In tho following spring, he was beaten by Mingo, throe mile heats, running second to him, and beating Cadmus, by Eclipse, Sydney, by Sir Charles, and the Jewess, by Henry, in the first heat, when l:c was Jrow ii. Ot this race the New York Spirit of the Times contained the following account: "Cadmus bad die pole, Mingo the out side. They got away in x cluster, the Jewess making 'a spurt' between tho stand and first gate that quite used her up. w hen Uadniusaiul Flatterer took up the running,'Mingo ind Sidney lying well up, the first under a hard pull. Finding Cadmus disliked the pace, Willie held hnn up after the second mile and Mingo headed the field with ease. Flatterer maintained his 6tridc to the end, ruuning u very handsome second to Mingo, who, for a single tluec miles can pull to the fastest horse in the country, and come home ahead. Cadmus could not run* in the mud?and his friends did not expect much from him, though he ran 2d the next heat.

In his mile trial he heal "Whig" (a very fast hoisr) several lengths, and exhibited wry gecd n n pton s at "the finish" of an ability to run a long distance successively. I witnessed a race en J.cng Island, last spring twelve months, between Intn and several other very sharp nags, two mile inals, in which Flatlet c-r was a good deal over "the foci" of tiny of tlieiu.
