Pro-motors. —Who that was ever
in the Army of Tennessee and never heard
the fame of Pat Sharkey, the horne-ahoer?
PU'i name was as familiar in camp as that
a' any General. Pat ia the lad that can
moo a horse, and all the officers knewiift f
ind that’s why they all came to him. We
ore glad to learn that he has again located
ia this city at his old stand, on Centre be
tween Broad and Kliia Streets.
If you want your horse shod, and avoid
being teased.
Go to Pat. Sharkey and you will be pleased ;
He will shoe your horse (or mule) just in a
trice,
And then it will be done so genteel aud
nice.
