He is enabled’ from personal acquaintance, to testify as to he’ superior qualifications of Mr. T. The following among other testimonials, are offered : , Wellington H. Tyler is a graduate of this Co.lege Alter taking his first degree, he went to Kentucky, where he proved himself to be an able and faithful teacher of youth. Being invited to take a tutorship here, he returned and discharged the duties of hi> offic e with great credit to himself and advantage to the Institution. Since then he has studied Theo’ogy in the Andover Somina’ry and is now a very acceptable preacher of the Gos pel. it affords me great pleasure to recommend him to the public, as a man of high moral and Christian character, and peifectly well qualified to take charge oi any Academy or High School, where his services may be wanted. II 'Humphrey Pres Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1839.” “Amherst College, Sept. 20 1879 This may certify, That the subscriber’ is well acquainted with the Rev. Wellington JR Tyler, having known him as a member of this Cofc'e of which he is an alumnus,andafterwards as a Tutor in ;he College, and since as a licensed preacher resident in this place ; and 1 take great pleasure in recommending him to the public confidence as a Christian and a minister, and also as a scholar and gentleman, highly qualified by his abilities,attain ments, and general character, to superintend the instruction ol youth of either sex in ary of our literary institutions. n. W.Fiske Prof. Int. and Mor. Plu’y.” Mrs. T is amply recommended by the Principals of the Troy Female Seminary, and also by Profs Yates of Union College, and Joslin of the New York University. The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge of the highly rosponsibleduties which will devolve upon them, will aim at practical results, and at tempt rather to qualify those submitted ’to their care for the duties of real life, than to gain for them the admiration too often bestowed upon . r ratic genius and fanciful attainments. The former requires the symmetrical developt ment of ali the faculties which make up the mental and moral constitutions, and, under no circumstances of future life, will it leave the pupil m the condition of a traveller, who should receive for his guidance a map of a different country fiotn that in which he is to travel. They will aim at permanent results. '] ho pow er and tliG habit ot reasoning are worth more than any number ol the results oi others’ reason!: <r. the loveor knowledge and a mind well disciplined and directed for future acquisitions, are a greater blessing than any amount of knowledge without such guaranties lor its perpetuity and increase, as a living fountain is worth more than a stagnant reservoir of however great dimensions. They will aim, in short, at combining, in the highest practicable degree, the advantages of home education with t.iose which, in he general, can only be enjoyed abroad, where many are brought togethei for the same object;— al concentrating the endearments of home,its social sentiments ail'd its proprieties ol ale lor the improvement and the enjoyment of tho c who may thus be removed from the danger of being injuriously involved in fash ionab.c dissipation, or being too early occupied with distracting domestic cares and avocations. It will be perceived that the new arrangement leaves the identity of the Institute untouched. It w ill be tiie same in its objects and aims—the same in its internal arrangements,in its religious aspects and in the sentiments ot its conductors, as they regard the domestic institutions of the South.— Hence the propriety of omitting here much that must otherwise have been detailed at large, res pecting our arrangements and the advantages of them —matters, which have already and repeatedly been submitted to the notice of the public, and as it would seem, met their approbation. The regular Term of tiie Institute consists of nine motif /is, commencing on tiie Ist of October, and terminating on the last day cf June. Term divided into two Sessions .of four and a half months each. Second Session commences on the second Monday in February, terminating on the last day of J une. It is every way desirable that pupils should enter at the commencement of the Term; they will however, be received al any period of the Term 5 and charged only for tho unexpired portion of tiie’ Term. The Institurion will be open five days of the week, during the hours of recitation, from 6 a m. to Op m. to the inspection of patrons and those interested in the cause of Female Education. No expenditures will be made for pupils, for nooks, stationary, postage, and necessary articles, such as shoes, &c. unless an advance is made, in’ deposite, for the same. All letters to Principals must be post-paid.

PEDIGREE. J. R. 11. AcKLiNjEsq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows: —“TomTunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1 S3l. His dam was High land Mary .and her dam a fnil-bloodcd Archie mare; tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolei. Tom Tunstall was sired by o'd Pacific, and he by old , Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ j I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended fiomas 1 good a stuck as any horse in the United States.— j He was a race horse of the first order, but I lear will never be able to make a first rate race a^ain, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing llas d v Cryek, Gallatin, Tennessee, yon can get a full pedigree of the dnm of Tom Tunstall.” The same * Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Mary 1 combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn- c breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolct, the son of s imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Six * Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported s horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine, v (son of O’Kelle.' ’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 grt at-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar lenacc horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great- ! a greal-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; a great-g;cat-great-grcat-grcat-grand-dam by Tee’s j v old Mark Anthony outof a mare by imported Moo- j | key.” Cn the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary j e to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none c will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— t If faitber recommendation be wonted, call and see Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent. |'eb 22 —tiw&wtf ..SALE A firs rale Northern fami y I H >’•*«.
