SOIItH-CAKOL« NA FEMALE INSii-
TLTE.
11HE duties of this Institution,under the direc
. lion of Dr. Elias Marks and Rev. Well
ington H. Tyler, will be resumed on the fust
October ensuing.
Twenty-two years of past service is the pVdge
which one o the above-named individuals offers
tor that which is forthcoming. He is enabled’
from personal acquaintance, to testify as to he’
superior qualifications of Mr. T. The following
among other testimonials, are offered :
, Wellington H. Tyler is a graduate of this
Co.lege Alter taking his first degree, he went to
Kentucky, where he proved himself to be an able
and faithful teacher of youth. Being invited to
take a tutorship here, he returned and discharged
the duties of hi> offic e with great credit to himself
and advantage to the Institution. Since then he
has studied Theo’ogy in the Andover Somina’ry
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 oi any Academy or High School, where his
services may be wanted. II 'Humphrey Pres
Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1839.”
“Amherst College, Sept. 20 1879
This may certify, That the subscriber’ is well
acquainted with the Rev. Wellington JR Tyler,
having known him as a member of this Cofc'e of
which he is an alumnus,andafterwards as a Tutor
in ;he College, and since as a licensed preacher
resident in this place ; and 1 take great pleasure
in recommending him to the public confidence as 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 ol youth of either sex in ary of our
literary institutions. n. W.Fiske
Prof. Int. and Mor. Plu’y.”
Mrs. T is amply recommended by the Principals
of the Troy Female Seminary, and also by Profs
Yates of Union College, and Joslin of the New
York University.
The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge
of the highly rosponsibleduties 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 developt ment of ali the
faculties which make up the mental and moral
constitutions, and, under no circumstances of future
life, will it leave the pupil m the condition of a
traveller, who should receive for his guidance a
map of a different country fiotn that in which he
is to travel.
They will aim at permanent results. '] ho pow
er and tliG habit ot reasoning are worth more than
any number ol the results oi others’ reason!: <r.
the loveor knowledge and a mind well disciplined
and directed for future acquisitions, are a greater
blessing than any amount of knowledge without
such guaranties lor its perpetuity and increase, as
a living fountain is worth more than a stagnant
reservoir of however great dimensions.
They will aim, in short, at combining, in the
highest practicable degree, the advantages of home
education with t.iose which, in he general, can
only be enjoyed abroad, where many are brought
togethei for the same object;— al concentrating the
endearments of home,its social sentiments ail'd its
proprieties ol ale lor the improvement and the
enjoyment of tho c who may thus be removed from
the danger of being injuriously involved in fash
ionab.c 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
w ill be tiie same in its objects and aims—the same
in its internal arrangements,in its religious aspects
and in the sentiments ot 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
pecting our arrangements and the advantages of
them —matters, which have already and repeatedly
been submitted to the notice of the public, and as
it would seem, met their approbation.
The regular Term of tiie Institute consists of
nine motif /is, commencing on tiie Ist of October,
and terminating on the last day cf June. Term
divided into two Sessions .of four and a half months
each. Second Session commences on the second
Monday in February, terminating on the last day
of J une.
It is every way desirable that pupils should enter
at the commencement of the Term; they will
however, be received al any period of the Term 5
and charged only for tho unexpired portion of tiie’
Term.
The Institurion will be open five days of the
week, during the hours of recitation, from 6 a m.
to Op m. to the inspection of patrons and those
interested in the cause of Female Education.
No expenditures will be made for pupils, for
nooks, stationary, postage, and necessary articles,
such as shoes, &c. 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 older to anticipate errors of double post
age upon the part of Postmasters.

PEDIGREE.
J. R. 11. AcKLiNjEsq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows: —“TomTunstall was foaled
mine on the 29th May, 1 S3l. His dam was High
land Mary .and her dam a fnil-bloodcd Archie mare;
tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolei. Tom
Tunstall was sired by o'd Pacific, and he by old ,
Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ j
I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended fiomas 1
good a stuck as any horse in the United States.— j
He was a race horse of the first order, but I lear
will never be able to make a first rate race a^ain,
owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year
old, in training, as I believe. By addressing llas
d v Cryek, Gallatin, Tennessee, yon can get a full
pedigree of the dnm of Tom Tunstall.” The same *
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Mary 1
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn- c
breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.—
She was got by the noted horse Pacolct, the son of s
imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Six *
Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported s
horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine, v
(son of O’Kelle.' ’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 imported Shark; great-great
grt at-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar
lenacc horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great- ! a
greal-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; a
great-g;cat-great-grcat-grcat-grand-dam by Tee’s j v
old Mark Anthony outof a mare by imported Moo- j |
key.” Cn the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary j e
to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none c
will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— t
