TOM TUNSTALL THIS thorough bred Horse will _ stand from this time until the first of Jul .V next at the stable in the lower pai 1 of Au S usta * formerly occupied g 'y* by Bertrand, Jr. Terms—s3o the season, payable at the last visit; for three or mi re mares, owned by the same person, $26 each: $ 1 for the groom. 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!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent. feb 22 —trw&w ts TO THE NORTH DAILY, From Weldon, N.
