tute.
The duties of this Institution, under the direc
tion of Dr, Elias .M arks and Rev. Well
ington H. Tyler, will be resumed on the fust
October ensuing.
Twenty-two years of pnwt service is the p’edre
w inch one o the above-named individuals offer*
lor that which is forthcoming. He is enabled’
Horn personal acquaintance, to testify as to he’
superior qualifications of Mr. T. The following
among other testimonials, arc offered :
yr. Wellington H. Tyler is a graduate of this
tOilege Alter taking lus first degree, lie went to
Kentucky w here he proved himself to be an able
and laithlul teacher of youth. Being invited to
taite a tutorship here, he returned and discharged
the duties of hD office with great credit to himself
and advantage to the Institution. Since then he
has studied J heo’ogy in the Andover Seminary
and is now a very acceptable preacher of the Gos
pel.
It affords me great pleasure to recommend him
to the public, as a man of high moral and Christian
character, and peifectly well qualified to take
charge ol any Academy or High School, where his
services may be wanted. II Humphrey Pres
Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1839.”
“Amherst College, Sept 20 18°9
This may certify, That the subscriber’ is Veil
acquainted with the Rev. Wellington 11. Tyler,
having known him as a member of this Cohe re of
which he is an alumnus,and afterwards as a Tutor
m -.he College, and since as a licensed preacher
resident in this place ; and I take great pleasure
in recommending him to the public confidence -i* a
Christian and a minister, and also as a scholar and
gentleman, highly qualified by his abilities attain
ments, and general character, to superintend the
instruction of youth of either sex in ar v of our
literary institutions. n. W.Fiske
Prof. Int. and Mor. Phi’y.”
Mrs.T is amply recommended by the Principals
of the Troy Female Seminary, and also by Pixff s
Yates of Union College, and Joslin of the New
Fork University.
The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge
of the highly responsible duties which will devolve
upon them, will aim at practical results, and at
tempt rather to qualify those submitted ’to their
care for the duties of real life, than to gain for
them the admiration too often bestowed upon . r
ratic genius and fanciful attainments. The former
requires the symmetrical developcment of ali the
faculties which make up the mental and moral
constitutions, and, under no circumstances of future
lile, will it leave the pupil in the condition of a
tiavellei, who should receive for his guidance a
map of a different country from that in which fie
is to travel.
They will aim at permanent results. The pow
er ana tha habit of reasoning are worth more than
any number of the results ot others’ rea*onii g ;
the love ol knowledge and a mind well disciplined
and directed for future acquisitions, are a greater
blessing than any amount of knowledge without
such guaranties for its perpetuity and increase, as
a living fountain is worth more than a stagnant
reservoir of however great dimensions.
1 bey will aim, in short, at combining, in the
highest practicable degree, the advantages of home
education with t.iose which, in the general, can
only be enjoyed abroad, where many are brought
togethei for the same object ;—at concentrating the
endearments of home,its social sentiments and its
proprieties ol iile—lor the improvement and the
enjoyment of tho e who may thus be removed from
the danger of being injuriously involved in fash
ionable dissipation, or being too early occupied
with distracting domestic cares and avocations.
It will be perceived that the new arrangement
leaves the identity of the Institute untouched. It
will be tiie same in its objects and aims—the same
in its internal arrangements,in its religious aspects
and in the sentiments of its conductors, as they
regard the domestic institutions of the South.
Hence the propriety of omitting here much that
must otherwise have been detailed at large, res- j
peeling our arrangements and the advantages of
them—matters, which have already and repeatedly
been submitted to the notice of tiie public, and as
ic would seem, met their approbation.
1 lie regular I enn ol the Institute consists of
nine months, commencing on tiie Ist of October,
and terminating on the last day cf June. Term
divided into lu o Sessions. of four and a hail months
each. Second Session commences on the second
Monday in February, terminating ou the last day
of June.
It is every way desirable that pupils should enter
at the commencement of the Term ; they will
hutvever, be received at any period of the Term’
and charged only for the unexpired portion of the’
Term.
The Institurion will be open five days of the
week, during the hours of recitation, from 6 a m.
to 5 P m. to the inspection of patrons and those
interested in the cause of Female Education.
No expenditures will be made for pupils, for
books, stationary, postage, and necessary articles,
such as shoes, See. unless an advance is made, in
deposite, for the same.
All letters to Principals must be post-paid.
We recommend to patrons and others to post-pay
their letters, addressed to the inmates of the In
stitute, in order to anticipate errors of double post
age upon the pait of Postmasters.

PEDIGREE.
J. R. 11. AcKLiN,Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
ceitibes as follows ; —“ Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 20th Maj - , 1 S3l. liis dam was High
land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare;
tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pstcolei. 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 fioiuas
good a stock as any horse in the United States.— ;
He was a race horse of tho first order, but 1 lear
will never be able to make a til'st 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.” ihe same 1
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus ? —■“ Highland Mary 1
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn- '
breds than any mate ever raised in Tennessee.—
She was got by the noted horse Pacolct, 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 Chademaine,
(son of O’Kelle; ’s Eclipse, and one of the purest ,
importations of the last century;) great grand-dam J
by the imported horse Wrangler;great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great
grt at-gran d-d am by the celebrated American quar
ter iace horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great- i
great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; j ;
grcat-gicat-great-great-grcat-grand-dam by Lee’s i
old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou- i ]
key.” Cn the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary I <
to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none (
will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— \
