THE VlUrf! AL DEl'AltI'MKNT Is under the supervision of Mr. J. YVatson, whose qualiiications fort ic task arc too w<H 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 interos' hy its readers, and more especially the Ladies, whom the publisher is in the highest legrec anxious to please. It will continue to he n subject of "iore than usual care to him, and to the Professor under whose su|K>rvision it is placed, to make that portion of the magazine alotted to music, more than ever doserving of the countenance of every lover of music. It has i.i.nn .... i ...;n ... i... i, ill pieces of music printed correctly and lree from errors. THE WORK IN GENERAL. Over every department an equally careful super vision will .ic strict I v exorcised by the Editors, and all appropriate expenditures will be liberally bestowed as it is tlie -'csign oftlie publisher, with the aid of his contributors and the advice of bis friends to make the Ladies' Companion distinguished for the beauty and accuracy of its typography?the variety ami high tone of its literary articles?the quality and value of its music?and the unequalled splendor of its pictorial embelishments. It is the deter litiilton of the publisher to use everv moans to maintain the superiority which the Ladies' Companion has obtained. For four years lie has steadily pursued a course ot improvement, and he (l itters 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 lie perceived that the Ladies' Companion embraces every department withI in the range of Belles-Lett res and the Fine Arts; and no exertions or expense will he deemed too great to render the work equal to any other extant. The fluttering and general testimonials of nearly every contemparary journal in the United States, and in fact, many 011 the other side of the Atlantic, have strongly asserted the Undeniable claims of the Ladies' ompanion to the support of the public general| ly. There is no work that gives its readers such a i great return for their subscripti >m. The Prize Articles will all be published during the | year.

If \ made double, they reduce labor, and gin just double, the quantity ot cotton over the single cylinder Gin, uo other k:id having been in use prevous to this patent; and wheuicr single or double, they are lound to improve the quality of the cotton, by more perfectly cleaning it. They can be maue to contain from tiO to il>U saws in a stand, and whether small or large, one hand will be sullicieut to attend them. The Gins have mechanicui feeders and hoppers attached to them, which free the cotton Ironi leaves, trush, dirt, ?.Vc. before it can reach the saws, and by tnc thorough buckling operation it receives from the feeders, which make two revolutions to one of (he saws, it is almost- hi a nail giued slate, before it descenus to the saw. 11 y a very simple arrangement of a screw to each set ct gaates, on winch tin- hoppers rest, and through which llie teeth of the feeders pass, they can be liride to teed slow or last to suit, the condition of the cotton at the time. \V hen made double, the saws are placed on two sets of cylinders and turn upon each other in opposite directions,' and are r> litn iimwl Ki? f u?.* ? ?(. ?

The torce required to work it, is about the same as that necessary to move on equal number of sawsin the common Gin. This Gin lias been put in operation in Mew 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 icspecting the merits of the Gin.

The Gins ordered will be delivered to the agents, of planters in any of the sea port towns of the cotton planting Slates, at the above prices, the agents paying the freight on the same from New York, and becoming responsible for !he amount of the Gin. It is desirable,when planters give orders for Gins, they should accompany them with their views in regard 10 tne arrangement of saws, breasts, brushes, &c. It is found they difler in opinion. Some desire saws of larger diameter than others. The most common size is 1) or 10 inches; hut some wish them lii inches. Some wish 5 or 0 rows of brushes j on an axle, while others do not want more than 4 I at most. Some wish saws with 8 or 9 teeth to the inch, while others want 10 or 11. With so much discrepancy, we prefer they should, at the time of giving orders, furnish a statement of their wishes, and the manufacturercrs can fulfil them in every particular. Where it is left to our discretion, we shall make tlirm on the most modern and approved plan. A n order can be executed, from the lime 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 crop, all orders , ought to be in the haiide of the manufacturers by i the first or middle of May; except for plantations ) where they arc late in commencing to pick or gin cotton.
