fpHE UNDERSIGNED, having engaged the as-

ed by Ist July next, to take charge of the Educa
tion of a limited number of Boys. His residence is
near Clarksville, Geo.
In assuming the responsibilities of a Teacher, it
is his intention to have the best professional aid to
be procured The situation of the proposed Semi
nary in the heart of the South —in a region which
for the purity of its atmosphere and magnificence
of its scenery, has oecome a favorite abode for the
wealthy and refined; the determination of the
Principal to make every effort to establish at home
an institution where a well grounded and liberal
education may be obtained, while the virtues of
the southern character will be cherished, and the
contamination of principles which tend to under
mine our social fabric be avoided, will, he trusts,
secure for him the support of Southern Parents,
sustained by them, he hopes to elevate his institu
tion to a level with the best in the Union
Tne instruction of the School will embrace the
primary branches of a plain English Education, the
various departments of the Natural and Mathemati
cal Siences, the Classics, the Hebrew, German and
French Languages, Drawing and Topography. It
will be the object of the Principal to combine with
the acquisition of useful knowledge and the devel
opement of the intellect, the literary tastes and
moral feelings essential to elevation of cnaracter
and the practical habits necessary for active life —
in other words, to unite as much as possible the
advantages of a domestic and public School Edu
cation.
Applicants for admission must be between ten
and sixteen years of age.
Terms—s2so per annum,payable semi-annually
in advance, to include instruction in the above
branches, (except Hebrew and German, extra at
S3O per annum each) and all expenses but Books,
Stationary, and Clothing.

last, a negro man named Daniel, about sixty ycais
of age, though he does not appear to be more than
forty, a little gray and inclined to be bald, upwards
of live feet high, and has lost a finger from one
hand, I think the rignt. He has a wife at Mr. E. .
Reeds, Columbia county, and may be miking about

Yarborough & Mullay, Editors and Publishers.
riUIE present flourishing trade, and the growing
1 importance of Hamburg in a commercial point
of view, fully authorize the establishment of such
a Newspaper as the publishers design to make
the Jour al. No place of the same population in
the Union, and certainly none where so large an
amount of business is transacted, is without such
a vehicle of trade and intelligence. Every effort
will be made to render the Journal entirely ac
ceptable to the liberal andenteri rizing community,
for whose patronage it presents itself. Political
facts will be given lo the public as matter of news;
but political speculations, with their train of so
phistry, misrepresentation, slander and abuse, will
be carefully excluded from our columns. Partic
ular attention will be given to the state of the
Markets at home and abroad, and we shall furnish
regularly corrected lists of the prices current at
Hamburg, Augusta and Charleston, as well as co
pious extracts from the Trade Lists of the North
ern cities. Our extensive mail facilitie-s will give
us intelligence from every part of the Union at the
latest possible dates; and the means they will al
so afford us of transmitting our paper speedily to
every post-office throughout the South and South-
West, will make the Journal useful and valuable
to the business-men of these sections of our great
country, and we shall look with confidence for
patronage at their hands We shall endeavor to
find a place in our columns for every thing of in
terest to the business classes of the people and the j
community generally; and, in short, no expense or 1
labor shall be spared to render the Journal a truly
valuable paper, and in every way worthy of the
favor and support we now solicit for it.
Term;. $5 per annum, in advance. The Jour- i
nal will be printed twice a week, with type,
on a beautiful while paper of an extra-impeiial
size.
Advertisements inserted at the usual rates, j

PEDIGREE.
J. R. If. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows: —‘ Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 29th May, 1831. Ills dam was High
land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare;
the sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleU Tom
Tunstall was sired by o d Pacific, and he by old
Sir Archie. This is as far as I am able to go, tho’
I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as
good a stock as any horse in the United States.—
He was a race horse of the first order, but 1 lear
will never be able to make a first rate race again,
owing to his leg ; it was injured when a three year
old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har
dy Cryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full
pedigree of the darn of Pom Tunstall.” The same
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary
combined as many ormoie rich crosses of thorough
breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.—
She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of
imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir
Archie ; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported
horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlcmaine,
(son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam
by the imparted horse Wrangler; great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great
great-gvand-dam by the celebrated American quar
ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great
greal-great-giand-dam by imported Fearnaught;
great-great-graat-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s
old Mark Anthony outof a mare by imported Mon
key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary
to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none
will require a purer or better attested pedegree!—
