TOM TUNSTALL
THIS thorough bred Horse will
stand from this time until the first of
July next at the stable in the lower

season, payable at the last visit; for
three or mt re mares, owned by the same person,
$25 each: $1 for the groom.
PEDIGREE.
J R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
ceililies as follows ‘ Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 29th May, IS3I. His dam was High
land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare;
me 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 from as
good a stock as any horse in the I nited States,
fie was a race horse of the first order, but I lear
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
py 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 maie ever raised in Tennessee.—
She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of
imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir
\rchic; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported
horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine,
(«on of O’Kellei’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam
bv the impoited horse Wrangler;great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great
ereat-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar
ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great
creat-great-grand-dam by imported learnaught;
great-great-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee s
old 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
wi l require a purer or better attested pedegree.

MONTPELIER SPRINGS,
Monroe County, Geo.
MTHE MONTPELIER HOUSE will be
open for the reception of Visiters, on the
— 10th of June. —This celebrated water
ing place is beautifully situated, 16 miles West of
Macon, and is nearly central to the State. Its
location and scenery blend the advantages of health
and pure air, with the charm of a romantic pano
rama of woods, and vales, and cultivated fields, at
once interesting as a retreat to the valetudinarian
—to the man of business, and the devotee of
pleasure. The analysis of these waters, having
been laid before the public, I deem it unnecessary
to say more than apply their medicinal properties
to the healing art. Jn the mitigation and relief of
the following diseases, they stand pre-eminent:
Dropsy-, hydrocephalus in infants, marasmus, teeth
ing, cho'era infantum, rheumatism, sick head ache,
dyspepsia, billions derangement and affections of
the liver, diabetic and calculous disorders of the
kidney-s, herpetic and scrofulous eruptions of the
skin; together with a great variety of complaints
originating from low and miasmatic districts of
country. The Baths, which are great restoratives
to debilitated constitutions, will be kept in good
order, and a careful male and female, to attend
them. The chambers are large and airy-, and the
servants will be found to be competent and atten
tive. The table shall be constantly supplied with
every delicacy the season and the surrounding
country will furnish. The stables will be well
supplied with provender, and careful ostlers to at
tend them.
The subscriber takes this opportunity to return
his thanks to his friendss and the public, for the
patronage he has received since he has been pro
prietor of the Montpelier House, and assures them,
that no exertions on his part shall be wanting, to
give entire satisfaction to all who may visit his
House.
Visiters from the sea coast, on their arrival at
Macon, will be taken direct on the Monroe Rail
Road to the Depot, where a carriage will alway s
be in waiting to take them to the Springs,

UANAWAY fiom the subscriber, on Tuesday,
the 29th ult. three Negroes: One man, by
the name of Miles, spare made, down cast look,
thick lipped, and when spoken to, is slow in an
swering. If taken up and noticed closely, his left
thumb has been bitten ; and is a pretty good fiddler,
wore off a white straw hat. Ills wife Hannah, a
stoutly made negro, of rather a yellow complexion,
with a small sore on one of her checks, not now
recollected which. When spoken to, her counte
nance rather mild, and speaks very proper for a
negro,and can face the interrogator well. She has
with her a child, about 2 years old by the name of
Amanda, of a nice copper color, with the features
of her mother. Any person apprehending said
Negroes, and putting me in possession of them,
will receive a liberal reward.
