PROSPECTUS OF
the reforj i;r.
The undersigned propose to publish in Augusta,
Ga. a weekly paper, to be entitled Keformeh,
extra impoiial size, from the ;oth of May to
the 10th of November next, for One Dollar in
advance. As its name indicates, it will be devoted
exclusively to the cause of Reform, the elevation
of \\ ILLIAM HENRY HARRISON, of Ohio, for
president, and JOHN TYIER, df Virginia, for
Vice President, and the subversion of the present
Administration, —the necessity of elbrm in which
R becoming every day more and m ire apparent.
It will observe a mild, dignified to le, and address !
itself to the common sense of evefv class of citi- 1
zens, for whose benefit it is designed.
Phis 1 jospectus is issued under jthe impression i
that t.ie filends of reform w[U make a united and
zealous effort to give the paper a general circula
tion, in short to send it to the house of ever}' man
who rcac£. The People want light, and if our
friends wtill aid us in our work, we shall be able to
counteract the thousand calumnies of the Van
Buren presses, and carry the “war into Africa.”—
In the language of a distinguished co-worker, “All
we ask is to be heard by the people. It is for
them we speak, and if w e can get. a hearing, we
have no fears of the remit,” even in Georgia. —
“The people will vindicate their wrongs, and hur 1
their oppressors from office.”
We ask the press throughout this and the ad
joining States, to insert our Prospectus, and we
especially invoke the iiienos of tl|e cause to be
vigilant in procuring subscribers aild forward thei
names by mail as early as possible.
'1 lie paper will contain nothirg but leading mat
ter, being entirely free from ail advertisements, i
and is placed at so low a price as to biing it within !
the means of every man. 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 mare;
tne sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleG Tom
Tunstall was sired by old 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 rale race again,
owin°- to his leg; it was injured when a three yeat I
> old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Hab
; dyCryeh, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full
pedUree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” 't he same
Mr Hardy Cryer certifies thus“ Highland Maiy
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn
breds than any maie ever raised in 1 ennessee.
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 tharlcmaine,
(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-graad
-1 dam O’Possum 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 Fearnaught;
groat-grcat-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s
old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mon
key.” Gn 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! —
