TOM TUNSTALL
THIS thorough bred Horse will
stand from this time until the first of :
July next at the stable in the lower !
part of Augusta, formerly occupied
Vi r’jji)y Bertrand, Jr. Terms—s3o the 1

three or m< re mares, owned by the same person, j
$25 each : $ 1 for the groom.
PEDIGREE.
J. R. 11. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, I
certifies as follows :— * Tom Tunstall was foaled j
mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High- |
land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; 1
tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolet. Tom {
Tunstall was sired by o d Pacific, and he by old j
Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’
I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended fiomas
good a stock as any horse in the United States.— i
lie was a race horse of the first order, but 1 lear j
will never be able to make a first rate race again, j
owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year (
old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har- |
DY Dryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full
pedigree of the darn of Tom Tunstall.”, The same
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Ma/y
c ombined as many or more rich crosses of thorouga
breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.—
ft he 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 Charlemaine,
(son of O’Kellev’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of’the last century;) great grand-dam i
oy the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great
great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar
ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great
grcal-great-gi and-dam by imported Fcarnaught;
great-great-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s
aid Mark Anthony outof a mare by imported Mou
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!—

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 facilities will give f
us intelligence from every part of the Union at the
latest possible dates; and the means they will al- i
so afford us of transmitting our paper speedilv to
every post-office throughout the South and South-
West, will make the Journal useful and valuable
to the business-men ot these sections of our great
country, and we shall look with confidence for
