Ihe white does not run down straight in the usual way, but is very much in clined to the 1 ft; with a long thick tail. He had on a new snaffle bridle, with long stout reins • a good saddle, with a daik blanket. Any pers'on taking up said Horse, will be suitably rewarded by leaving him at Mr. ALMOND’S Stable.

PEDIGREE. J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows :—‘Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1 S3l. His dam was High land Mary and her darn a full-blooded Archie mare; tne sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleL 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 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 dy Cryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of "Torn Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Maiy combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Roscy Carey by Sir Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine, (son of O’Kcllcy’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 r imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great grcal-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; great-gi cat-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s old Mark Anthony outof a mare by r imported Mou key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace bey’ond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent. teb 22— trvv&wt: TRI-WEEKLY lTn E, FROM GREeNSBOROUGH AND LEXINGTON N.
