TOM TUNSTALL THIS thorough bred Horse will VTsNk stand from this time until the first of next at the stat> le the lower part of Augusta, formerly occupied Vjl fjk by Bertrand, Jr. Terms—s3o the season, payable at the last visit; for three or mi re mares, owned by the same person, $25 each: $1 for the groom. PEDIGREE. J. R. H, Ackuw, 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 mare; tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolef. Tom Toostall 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 Tun sir'll 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 nevei be able to make a first rate race again, owing to bis leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har ' dy CT.yer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same i Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus:—“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough 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’Kellev’s Eclipse, and one of the purest i importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Go<*de’s old Twigg; great-great great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearoaught; great-great-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou key.” On theatre’s sidu it is deemed unnecessary to trace bej-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, feb 22 —tnrAwt# ... PUBLIC SALES.
