No lady possessing gre iter variety of talent, or better calculated to aiu 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 powctful talents of Mrs. Stopnens, the proprietor has seenred a list of contributors, which combined will render the Ladies' Companion one ol the most interesting and talented magaziuesof the day.

The mere fact of its self-feeding, seems to me to be a very valuable Improvement; and besides, the quality of the cotton, ss it comes out of the oro cess, appeared to me to be better and cleaner than from the common Gins in use, and that it saves 1 considerably in labor.

The Gins ordered will be delivered to the agents, of planters in any of the sea port towns of the cotton planting States, at the above prices, the agents paying the freight on the same from New York, ana becoming responsible for !he amoun .of the Gin. It is desirable, when planters give orders for Gins, they should accompany l hem with their views in regai4|to the arrangement of saws, breasts, brushes, &e. /it is found they differ in opinion Some desire saws of larger diameter than others. The most common site is 9 or 10 inches; but some wish them 12 inches. Some wish 6 or 6 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 of 11. With so much discrepancy, we prefer they should, at the time of giving orders, turniah a statement of their wishes, and the inanufacturefers con 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 that time placed in the hands of the factor. .To be in time for the next cron. all orders ought to be in the hand* of the manufacturers by the first or middle of May; except for plantations where they arc late in commencing to pick or gin cotton.

THE Establishment of the COMMERCIAL COURIER wns rendered necessary by the inconvenience to which our citizens have been subjected for the want of a public channel of communication which in a commercial community like Camden, is essentially necessary, and consequently the COURIERS claim on the public is such as should ensure a liberal patronage. The undersigned have epared no trouble or o\pensc in obtaiuing the best workmen in order t?> render the Taper nil the advantages that it. will admit of, and affording satisfaction to its patrons. In political matters the Courier will take no ' part; the design being to publish a Paper adapted to the interest of all, which could not be eflccU <1 by its entering into the arena of Politics?it will be confined principally to such matter-as appertains to Commerce, Agriculture and Amusement. The COURIER is published every Saturday morning at Three Dollars in advance, or Four Dollars if not paid until the expiration ot the year.
