f ? . m\ mi i ?! i i PROSPECTUS or the LITERARY BVLLETIIV. >i Charleston, 8. C. IN offering to the patronage of tite public, a/aew literary paper, ore are |?rfoctly aware tMgcwe are but repeating au oft-tried experiment, flfcresuit, however, we would fain bclievo, will bo (jiftrent. We are, it is true, oonscious of .he pjjsiitrion of no talent or ability superior to thai of oaf predecessors, but we rely, (perhaps, indeed, iy?h too much of the ardor of all experiments,) upon the iu? { creasing taste of the age or literature ; a faste, the evidence of which is before us in the hortioer of pe- j riodioals, erirrajred solely in its cultivation?in the j lyceuns, the libraries and academies devoted to science an I learning. Whilst the North ttud the West are thus assidioudly employed in the exemplar? task of mental improvement, we will not sappose that tho South intends longer to bear trie weight of that heavy iucumbus which heretofore lias whelmed it in an intelleetaal slumber more lasting and profound than that physical one which orcwiitio enwrapped the seven sleepers of typhosus. It is with a iiope thus founded, and with an intention if wo cannot win success, at least to deserve it; iliai notwithstanding the uniform failure of those who have preceded us, we have ventured to claim the patronage and to labor for the np.ilausc of the public. The stake shall be played for; how the gauie is to end, time only pan determine. Our object will be to render the columns of the illettn both useful and amusing. For this pu: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 cuned from every spot of interest and instruction! in llio vast field of literaturo. The productions of the press shall pass in teview before us, and on every work whioh merits our notice, an impartial criticism shalt be bestowed.? To light literature and-to learned science shall alike lie 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 icast in onr own opinion) before they begin to read. fie, 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; lost therefore our roadeis come to some 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 de not, deserve their patronage.

Assisted by many of the most popular writers. income publication ot toe may numocr, me ue(5 inand tor the Ladies' Companion, has been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the volume an additional nuin!?er of copies were printed, which was considered at the lime adequate to satisfy all the orders which might be rccoived, and leave a considerable number on hand ior subsequent calls. The publisher is more than graiified in stating that the whole edition wus nearly exhausted before the issuing of the seventh jiumber of the volume; and at tins time but very lew complete sets remain on hand, to supply the numerous orders which are doily received from every section of the U. S. In consequence of this great unforseen increase of new subscribers, ho 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, und at th? same lime, he begs to assure the readers of the magazino and the public in general, that it is his ardent resolution to meet it with a cor resoonuigg liberality on iiis part to merit iu continuance. SPLENDID STEEL ENGRAVINGS by our best artists, cconipany c:.ch numoer?illustiated by Tales anil spirited Sketcues?which will, as heretofore, continue to be magnificent an.) fur superior to those published in any other magazine in America. ~ 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 ta.ent secured for the coming year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. ITS LITERARY CHARACTER! Will undergo consideiablc change, as the publisher of the Laeies' Companion, in order to show his appreciation of the public favor already extended to hiiu so liberally, has secured tlie aid of Mrs. Ann S.

No lady 1 possessing greater variety of talent, or better calcu- 1 iated to aid in conducting a ladies magazine could have been selected from the galaxy of female genius which is ihc glory of our country. In addition to the poweiful talents of iStrs.

Watson, whose , qualifications for the task are too well known t rc- 1 quire our testimony. This department of the Ladies' Companion, has ' 1 over commanded a large share of attention, and has -1 been looked upon with no little interost by its rea- j dors, and more especially the Ladies, whom the publisher is in the highest legrcc anxious to please. It will continue to nc a subject of more than usual 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 doserviug i of tTic 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 frotu errors. THE WORK IN GENFR \L. Over every department an equally careful mper i vision will he strictl exercised hy the Editors, and ; all appropriate expenditures will he liberally bestowed ] as it is the design of the publisher, with the aid of his contributors and the advice of his friends-to make1 the Ladies' Companion distinguished for tne beauty and accuracy of its typography?the variety and high tone of its liter 4ry articles?ilie qualit. and value of its music?and '.lie unequalled splendor oi its pictorial embeliahments. It is the deter illation of the publisher to use every means to matut ti l toe superiority which the Ladies' 'ompanion has obtained. For four y.ears he has steadily pursued a course ot improvement, and he flatters himself that his present facilities arc such astogivethe laddies'Co opinion e oinent advantages over all other publications of its character. From the foregoing it will be perceived that the Ladies' Companion embraces every department within the range of Belles-Lett res and the Fine Arts; and no exertions or ex|?ense will l>e deemed toe great to render tlie work equal to any other extant. The flattering and {general testimonials of nearly every contemparary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side of the Atlantic, have strongly asserted the Undeniable claims of the La* dies' ' 'ompanion tothn support of the public general* i ly.

Ilftl HE Copartnership heretofore existing under ft the firm ol Bishop and Gilchrist was at an end on the 1st day i f February. 1838. April 11 50 tf J. M.1GILCHRI9T, PAXK^x cur f on orN. : Gin ?an be made double, or angle. If JL nude double, they reduce labor, end gin just double ^the quantity of ootton oyer the single cylinder Gin, no other knd having been in use prevous to tins patent; and whether single or double, they are found to improve the quality of the cotton, by more perfectly cleaning it. They can be made to coutaiu from &) to 100 saws in a stand, and whether small or lagge, ou? hand will be sufficient to uttend them. The 'Gins have mechanical feeders and hbpperd attached to tliein, which free the cotton front leaves, trash, dirt, &c. before it can reach the saws, and by the thorough hackling operation it receives froin the feeders, which make two revolutions to one of the saws, it is almost in a half gined slate, 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 winch the teeth of the feeders pass, they can be inude to teed slow or fast to suit the condition of the cotton at the time. When made double, the saws 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 tour revo> lutions to one of* twe saw. The two cylinders can be detached so as to enable the planter to ruu 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 may be propelled by horse, steam, or water power. It inay also be propelled by iron runmr.g gear.' The force required to work it, is about the same as that necessary to mov.e an equal nu> .uerot saws in the common Gin. This Gin uas been put in operation in New Orleans for I -o or three weeks, and its success tested in f'tc presence of a large number of planters, our chants and others, and received their general rpprobation Several gentlemen have been ?o kind as to give j 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, Fob. 27. lo37. Dr. A.

' The mere Tact of its self-feeding, seems to ure 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 cons.derably in labor.

These favorable impressions of the advantages of your Patent Gin, have been confirmed by subsequently witnessing it in operation.

It.is completely ready for the breaker without the aid of the blower, and would, therefore, save the first process in manufacturing the article I'consider cotton cleansed by your Gin. would command from one to two cents on the pound more than the average crops brought into the Manchester market and cleansed by common Gins Yours, very resp'ly.
