PEDIGREE.
J. R. 11. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows :—“ Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 29th May, 1831. His darn was High
land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare;
tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolet. Tom
Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old
Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’
I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended fiom as
good a stock as any horse in the United States.—
He was a race horse of the first order, but I tear
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 I ryf.b, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full
pedigree of the dara of Tom Tunstall.” The same
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary
combined as many or more 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 Kosey Carey by Sir
Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imjiorted
horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine,
(son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam
by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great
grcat-grand-dain by the celebrated American quar
ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great
great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught;
grcat-gicat-great-great-grcat-grand-dam by Lee’s
old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou
key.” <>n 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!—

MOFFAT S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES
fB\IIESE medicines are indebted for their name
JL to tin ir manliest and sensible action in puii.
lying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing
them with renewed tone and vigor. Jn manv hun
dred certified cases which has been made public,
and in almost every species of disease to which
lbe human frame is liable, the happy effects of
MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AM) PHENIX BIT
TERS have been gratefully and publicly ar-
Lnowledged by the persons benefiitted, and' who
were previously unacquainted with the beamilully
philosophical principles upon which they are
compounfed, and upon which they subsequently
act.
The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves
in diseases ol every form and description. Their
first operation is to loosen from llie coats of the
stomach and bovvefs, the various impurities and
crudities eon lanily settling around them ; and to
remove the hardened fteces which collect in the
' convolutions of the smallest intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
, such collected messes behind as to produce habitu
al costiveness with sll its train of evils, or in a sud
den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This tact
is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death; and henne
the prejudice of those well informed men against
quack medicines—cr medicines prepared and her
alded to the publie bv ignorant p< rsons. '1 be se-
I cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse tho
' kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the
liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which
entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary
organs. The blood, which takes its red color from
• the agency of the liver and the lungs before it
passes into the heat, being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coining from a clean stom
ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every
part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the
> banner of health in the blooming cheek.
' Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been
' thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign
l remedy for <'yspepsia. Flatulency, Palpitation of
1 the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and llead
-1 ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor
and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera,

which afflict the frame. In fever and
ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been
. rnostem nenily successful; so much so that in the
■ Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni
: versally prescribe them.
All ihat Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is
to he particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly
according lo the directions, it is not by a news -
(taper notice, or any thiag that he himself may say
in their favor, that he ho;>es to gain credit. It is
alone by The result of a fair trial.
