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.

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. June 2—Gt D. D. HOWARD.
