PROSPECTUS OF
THE It EFOItM Ej R .
The undersigned propose to publish; in Augusta,
Ga. a weekly paper, to be entitled Tur' Reformer,
extra imperial size, from the 10tl» of May to
the 10th of November next, for One Dollar in
advance. As its name indicates, it wiff be devoted
exclusively to the cause of Reform, ihe elevation
of WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON], of Ohio, for
President, and JOHN TYjuER, of Virginia, for
Vice President, and the subversion of the present
Administration, —the necessity of reform in which
is be. oming cveiy day more and more apparent.—
It wiil observe a mild, dignified tope, and address
itself to the common sense of every c ; lass of citi
zens, for whose benefit it is designed.;
1 his I icspectus is issued under thij impression
that the friends of reform will make Ja united and
zealous effort to give the paper a gerjera! circula
tion, in short to send it to the house off every man
who reads. The People want light, and if our
friends will aid us in onr work, we shall be able to
counteract tins thousand calumnies (if the Van
Buren presses, and carry the “war hi tb Africa.”—
In the language of a distinguished co-worker, “All
we ask is to be heard by the people; It is for
them we speak, and if we can got a,hearing we
have no fears of the remit,” even, in Georgia.
‘■The people will vindicate their wpongs, and hui d
their oppressors from office.” ?
We ask the press throughout this -and the ad
joining States, to insert our Prosbectus, and we
especially invoke the friends of the icause to be
vigilant in procuring subscribers and ikmvard thei
names by mail as early as possible.; \
The paper will contain nothing b'Jit leading mat
ter, being entirely free from all advertisements,
and is p aced at so low a price as to bring it within
the means of every man. i

1 inform his friends and the public generally,
that his house has undergone some recent improve
ments, and his rooms are lilted up in a neat and
comfortable style for the accommodation of board
ers and transient visiters.
The waters of the line mineral spring, near the
town, and at a short walk from the Hotel, have
been pronounced by some of our most eminent phy
sicians as of the most superior; quality for all
those chronic diseases which require the stimula
ting effect of mineral water. And the location is
well caculatcd in every respect for the ccmlort and
enjoyment of the valetudinarian and those who
seek recreation in the country. Several fine streams
are in the neighborhood, which will afford ample
amusement to the angler , and the surrounding
hills and dales abounding with game; present un
surpassed attractions to the lover of Vic chase.
Every exertion will be used and every facility
rendered to make the stay of tiic visiter pleasant
and agreeable. £3 Families will be furnished
with well aired and pleasant private apartments ;
and his arrangements generally authorize him to as
sure the public, that none who arc fond of good or
der and quiet will leave his house dissatisfied. In
short, the subscriber would merely state that if a
desire to please and strict attention t. those who
favor him with a visit, will entitle him to the pat

PEDIGREE.
J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows :—“TomTunstall was foaled ;
mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High
land Mary .and her darn a full-blooded Archie mare;
the sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolct. Tom
Tunstall was sired by o’d Pacific, and he by old
Sir Archie. This is as far as lam 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 racehorse of the first order, but I iear
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 dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus“ Highland Mary
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough
breds than any marc 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 Charlemame, |
(son of O’Kellev’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam
by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-gjand
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
great-great-grand-dam by imported learnaught;
great-great-gveat-great-great-grand-dam by Lee s
old Mark Anthony out of 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.

HOWARD’S HOTEL,
Broadway, corner of Maiden Lane, Nev' York.
fSIHIS Hotel is one of the most commodious in
i the Union, having a front upon Rroa ’way of
over lUO feet, and upon Maiden Lane 60 feet, with
two large wings extending in the rear 135 feet.—
It is six stories high, exclusive of basement and
under cellars, and containing over 2UU bed cham
bers, each well lighted and ventilated with grates,
besides numerous private parlors with sleeping
rooms attached, and public parlors, dining, reading
and other rooms. There are two elegant dining
saloons, the floors of which, well as the spacious
halls in the first and second stories, together with
the reading and other public rooms, are paved with
Italian marble. There is also an extensive and
pleasant room fronting upon Broadway, fitted up
for a Ladies’ ordinary, and the ladies arc provided
with attractive public parlors, and a private en
trance to the Hotel from Maiden Lane.
The subscriber having for nine years past re
ceived a liberal patronage from merchants, and
principally from gentlemen of business at hrs for
mer Hotel in Broad street, is satisfied from ex
perience that early meals to many are more ac
ceptable; therefore he has had his house so con
structed as to be able to serve meals to such at
early hours. The hours adopted for meals are as I
follows, viz r In Gentleman’s dining room upon Ist
floor. Breakfast at 7 »r half past 7, with reference
to the season, of the year. Dinner in same at 2 !
o’clock.- in GentSejHrcn’s dining room upon 2d i
story, and also in Ladies’ ordinary, Breakfast from !
Bto 10 o’clock,and Dinner at half past 3. Printed
bills of fare are daily got up for the different dining
rooms, as it is optional with Gentlemen to lake
their meals in either of the Gentlemen’s dining
rooms, without giving ant- notice of their choice ;
the subscriber hopes-the extra trouble and expense
in the attempt to suit their convenience in this
respect will be propelly appreciated by a generous
public, and that a commensurate patronage will
result therefrom.
This House possesses every convenience that
the subscrioer could devise, and is universally pro
nounced by visitors to be the most replete in its
internal arrangements —its construction for light
and air being superior to any other House in the
city.
In addition to the many advantages and comforts
over most Hotels, it has a liviag spring of pure
soft water upon the premises, which, apart from its
intrinsic worth as a wholesome beverage, so un
usual to be found in the lower part of the city,
adds very much to the safety of the establishment
in case of a fsre on or near the premises; a power
ful force pump being attached to the well to force
water therefrom, as well as from the various sis
tems m the yard, to-the reservoirs under the roof,
from which, by use of the house, water can be
forced over any part of the premises in an instant.
hi short, this establishment has been got up
without reference to cost,and it is the intention of
the subscriber to have it stand among the very best
Hotels in the country. He hopes to be favored
with a share of public patronage.
