THE importance of properly preparing the Staple of any country or section is well known,but to no country or section is it of such importance ns these that grow and produce the Cotton as their only staple* Therefore, under this and other consideration*, 1 pro pose to publish by subscription n>y system and practice in Cotton Gin making and Ginning. With the advantage of many years, experience—- he sacrifice of mueh time and labor—and b lieving that't nave brought it nearer In perfect .on than any other person, l submit if so the public m a concise and correct m inner—with my late practice atd with many improvements besides the valuable one of the application of the Friction Wheels, and new mode of making the brush, (which I have patented in the Re public of Texas) ; and the Brake or Agitator, my last improvement, which much increases the specd n gri lling, and improves the Gotten, (It is well repres nteii in the plates and explained in the work.) The work to contain about one hundred pages octavo, in good binding, with ten well engraved plates, illustrative ! the system; ‘of the Gin complete, plans, elevations, sections, and figures in detail, with references aid d<- scription of every part. Also plates of plan and eleva tion of Gin House, Gear, position of the Gin, Sir. i ai ■’ulat ions of gear in speeding the gin, with paiticular description, cxplanat on and directions to the Colton Planters in construct ng the gin-house and gear, and genera! management of the giri, cotton, &c. With the rmos and explanations given in the pro posed Work, any goal workman may execute the whole plan well, and the Planter be enabled to judge .‘or himse.f in constructing his House, Gear, ir.d in selecting a Gin that is rig'iilv made in every respect, and of good materials; therefore being a great sav tig or gain to hint, first, in cleaning nis crop in half the time usually required; and in pu k ng and motetng hi.- cotton well, so as to command the highest price in market; in the durability of his Gin, which, if made by the directions given will last to pek a thousand hags of cotton, (this would require three or four com mon made Gins to do the aims.) And further, then is no risk or danger of burning the House. Cotton, &o, by taking fire from t lie Gin on the new friction arc I plan, though you were to g ve it double the motion Gins running on boxing would bear. Nothing will In set down in the proposed Work but positive facts, be ing the result (all prejudices aside) of fair and repeat ed experiments, (a safe guide to mechanical know ledge and skill.) If I were going to continue the Cotton Gin mailin'., business in this country, I should not trouble the. pub lic with this Piospcctiis for 1 would much rather work for money than write for it as in Ihe first case.

The prospectus to issue such a work, devoted to the scenery of Georg.a, although novel, will ;mdo'jbt edly iind universal favor, an J be regarded as it is by the editor, a plan at once felicitous and feasible.— There is much scenery in our State, that is not, sur passed in beauty and sublimity, by (bat of any oilier State in the Union The . pper counties abound iu seenes, which need only to be known to command the admiration of ail who love lhe beauties of nature. .Vlucti of the scenery (if tie norib is inferior lo our own, but is yet vtslied by thousands simply because it has been written, sung and “ lionized ” by autuo.s and travellers, until its beauty has become umveisa.lv known anil appreciated, it is desirable that attcn'ion should he directed to out own resources of lhe pic turesque m natural scenery,and w hen this is done, our own and northern tourists wiil speedily render our beautiful views as immortal as our language. The south is charged with general mdill rcnce to die progress of Literature arid tile Fine Arts; ad pr ibably the s'rongest foundation tor the charge is ibund in her inaction in etiterpiises calculated to Ester •heso objects. The publication of the proposed work will, it is believed, be an effective blow at ihts inunda tion, and a step towards lhe establishment of our lit erary reputation, to which end much honorable effort is now directed. /V third consideration, and the last which will now be urged, t* the intrinsic value of such a publication es ••GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED.” It will embody the representations of ihe beautiful and sublime in our S'.ite .'tenery, and aiiord to all, at a trifling ex pense, exact pictures ol our mountains, vallies, catar acts. public buildings, &c., which they may or may not otherwise behold, but which, in either case, would afford peculiar pleasure. The proposed work will be executed in a style su perior lo any similar pictnrul work in the country. The plates will be executed on steel by eminent en gravers, from original drawings, made expressly for the purpose, by ,\lr. T. Addison Richards, of Augus ta. The engravings will be accompanied with letter nress descriptions, prepared for the work, and in this departmnnt the editor will secure, as far as possible, the assistance and co-operation of our best writers. In short, no pains will be spared to make the work a per fect gem of its kind, to the end that it may meet a welcome reception not only at home but nl-o abroad. Conditions —“GEORGIA ILLUS3KA I ED” will be issued in monthly parts, in the quarto firm, a’ So per annum in advance, or at 50 Cents tor each part, payable on delivery. Each part will contain two highly finished engravings of Georgia Scenery, accompanied with letter-press descriptions and historical facts, printed on large and beautiful type on the f.t.est paper,the whole enveloped in a neatly printed cover. Anv individual who will obtain and forward six ad vanced subset iptions shall beemilied to a copy of the work. Chibs may receive twelve copies to one ad dress for Soft, or twenty-five copies for $ 100. in either case fret of postage. Communications and subscriptions must he addres sed.
