to buy. We quote 6to 9£ cents as extremes for

,4 CARD. —In crossing the Savannah river in
the ferry boat from Hamburg to Augusta,on Satur
day afternoon, May 30, I threw (by permission)
my blue broadcloth cloak into the one horse wagon
of an Individual, who, with his wife and a small j
child, was crossing at tae same time. The wife
knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed j
myself. When 1 arrived at the landing, I came off !
leaving my cloak, which was carried off by the
individuals aduded to. The lady, if 1 mistake not,
told me they were moving from South Carolina to !
the western part of this State, (Georgia). If any !
kind friend could give me the clue to their names, I
or the place to which they were travelling, so that i
I may obtain my- valuable cloak, he would confer j
a favor upon one who at limes is too forgetful for i
his own interest. JAMES SEWELL.

dyspepsia, billions derangement and affections of

kidney-s, herpetic and scrofulous eruptions of the
skin; together with a great variety-of complaints
originating from low and miasmatic districts of

PEDIGREE.
J. R. H. Acklxk, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama,
certifies as follows :- Tom Tunstall was foaled
mine on the 20th May, 1831. His dam was High
land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare;
the sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleL Tom
Tunstall was sired by o!d Pacific, and he by old
Sir Archie. This is a-s far as lam able to go, tho r
I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended Lomas
good a stock as any horse in the Unified States.—
He was a race horse of the first order, but 1 loar
will never be able to make a first rate race again,
owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year
old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Hah
xxy Cryf.r, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full
pedigree of the darn of Tom Tunstall.” The same
Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Mary
combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough
breds than any maie ever laised in Tennessee.—
She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of
imported Citizen ; her dam Hosey Carey by Sir
Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported
horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Chorlemaine,
(son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest |
importations of the last century;) great grand-darn
by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand
dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-groat
great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar
ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great
great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught;
great-great-great-great-great-grand-dam by Leo’s
old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou
koy.” 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! —
