HERMITAGE EXTRACT. —This lately in
vented combination of delightful odors, has
acquired a just popularity, not only by reason of
the strength and delicacy, but of the extraordina
ry duration of its perfume. Whilst the strength of
many other extracts and essences is almost as eva
nescent as the bloom of the flowers from which
they are derived, the Hermitage retains its fra
grance for an indefinite length of time, and is
scarce to be removed from the garment on which it
is poured, by washing; hence it is probably the
cheapest and most delightful perfume of our labora
tories.

i PEDIGREE.
J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows .- —‘ Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High
land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie marc;
tne sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleU Turn
Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old
Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’
1 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 fear
will never be able to make a first rate race again,
owing to his leg; it was injured when a three yeat
old, in training, as 1 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 Mai y
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn
breds than any mare 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 Charlemaine,
(son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam
by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-graad
dam O’Possam 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 Eearnaught;
great-great-groat-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s
old Mark Anthony outof a mare by imjxirted 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!—
