M’lntosii, Esq., Henry Comity, Ga. i Dear Sir:— l am this morning in receipt of | your favoni of the 18th instant, requesting to have some of the Balm sent out to your State as soon as possible. Such is the pressing demand in every section, that 1 have, as yet, not been I aide to supply the orders that have been some time on hand. 1 have had an order from Au gusta, Georgia, and Savannah, since last win ter, ■and only last week sent one gtoce to each place. Dr. E. R. Calhoun, of South Carolina, . lias contracted for that Stale and Georgia, and I have shipped to him near five thousand hot ] I ties, all that 1 could spare. As soon as 1 can, 1 will send him more; but when, I cannot say, as ] 1 must divide it as well as I can, until I can sup- i ply each State fully. 1 will domyself the pleas- , tire of requesting Dr. Calhoun to establish ana- ; "ency at your office as soon as other engage ; I ments will allow. I have been putting up near i ly two thousand per day, and now find myself' in want of about fifty thousand for immediate use, and have not fifteen bottles, but what are packed up for shipment. From the present de mand, I should not be surprised, if it were to | take live hundred thousand bottles a year to sup- j ply the demand. Yours respectfully, &c. 'll. B. MONTAGUE. ADDIriONAL CERTIFICATES. Albemarle, April, 1836. Dear Sir:— We suppose you like good news, particularly when yuti are mostly interested, i \\ e have but two bottles left of the box of Balm ’ I you sent us. You can draw at sight for § , ! which we believe will be lite amount, after de- I i ducting commission and expenses We will I thank you to send to our friends, Messrs. * * * I ! of Richmond, by first conveyance, a double box, which you will put at your wholesale price, for which you can also draw on us. It has failed in two instances in this neighborhood, but one of the persons that we have seen, thinks it was (with hint) rheumatism, as he had the tooth drawn, and the pain still continued. Several persons have used it, with defective gums, or scurvy, and are so much delighted with ' it, that wo tire charged to keep a supply. The ladies are using it with the tooth-brush, and say I that it is the best thing for the teeth and gums they have ever used. We are glad, for the sake ! of the sufferers, as well as on your account, j i that this remedy is not only not of Northern or- I igitt, (from whence all the patent nostrums ' 1 come,) but is a Virginia preparation, and by a Virginian. .Nor does ii detract from its efficacy, on account of the place of its preparation, (Pe ter,burg,) once styled by Mr. Jefferson, the “cockade ot America.” It seems to us, that all you now have to do, is to sec to it, that you keep a supply sufficient lor the demand—for if it sells elsewhere as it has done here, there will be no cn 1 to the demand. .Several merchants of mv acquaintance, mean to send for a box. Allow us to congratulate you, and the public, at the discovery and use of the only remedy (ex- ■ ca.pt drawing) for tooth-ache, that has yet been ‘ I discovered. Respectfully vours, R. R. &T.T. G. i 1 lIINTI.XGTON, | j near Cabin Point, 24th March. ) j Dear Sir: I bought a bottle of your Bahn from Messrs. , in Petersburg, in Februa- ry, chiefly because 1 had a servant who had ' pilfered most cxcrutiatingly for some months. I We. had tried all the remedies which were in I our reach ; an attempt was made to extract the ' tooth, but broke it oil. I caused the Balm to | be user] after warming it in a cup—this was re- i pealed with a second spoonful, when she vas ! entirely relieved. The next night she came for i more, saying that a tooth on the oilier side ached, an I also teqiiested some fur her husband who, she said, had been suffering with the same : : disease lor some weeks. I cheerfully gave it, • and the next day on inquiry loutid that both were | relieved. One ot mv ii‘’iglibors oi hi'jh respec- ' lability sent to me for some for his wife. I have this dav see,it him, and he assures me that j it afforded immediate relief, and there has been I n iretnrn ; before she suffered almost constant ly,and could not bear to h l cold water touch t the tooth, and for two nights previous to the ap plication,she had not been able to sleep scarce ly at all. Now she has no inconvenience from cold water or anything else that comes in con tact with the tooth. Tile night before hist he used sonic with one of his own men, with the same success, and says if he could have have had i this remedy fifteen years ago, and known its c'- j fleacy, ho would willingly have given :i hundred ; dollars for it. I have written in haste giving a I plain statement offacts. Yours restn clfiillv. WMF. R. RUFFIN. I September 9. 31—- ts. of mi>XKDGEVDXE, GEOBCIA, TUESDAY MOBNINCI, .W.-.883)58 31, Bs.SJ.

TBUFrSa TRUFFLE is a rich Mahogany Bay, and as to symmetrical, grand, and majestic, appear- i ance is second to no horse living, his blood is ' unquestionable, his size uncommon, being six- I teen hands high, and his form superior to most of true blooded horses, this distinguished horse is now a citizen of Georgia. The one half of Truffle is owned by Ex-Governor James Bar bour, of V irginia, and the other half belongs to Richard Rowell of Baldwin county Georgia. He will stand the ensuing season at the planta tion Bl’ LEAST, eight miles übove Milledge ville, on the Eatonton Road, and lie will be lot ,to mares on the following terms: Fifty Dollars, the season, and a dollar to the Groom, and one hundred dollars toinsure a mare in foal. Should any person put a mare the spiing season, and she does not prove in Foal, the same person bringing the same mare shall have the fall sea son gratis. The season money will be expec ted on or before the expiration of the season, ! which will commence on the liist day of July next. No accountability for accidents, though all the | attention will be paid that can be, as TRUF FLE will be under my immediate control. Any mare sent to remain with Truffle, will be fed with grain at ten dollars per mont.h. Good pasturage gratis. PEDIGREE.

It will be seen by those conversant with the pedigrees of horses, that Truffle’s blood is not only rich, but lie is deeply imbued with the biood of the best horses of their day, and many of these the best that the world afforded. RICHARC ROWELL. Feb. 14 s—ts. THE THOROUGH BRED HORSE. WILL stand the ensuing season at the house of Maj. THOMAS <4.

Good and extensive pasturage will be provided for mares from a dis tance, and they will be fed with grain if directed. All possible care will be taken to prevent acei cuts, but no li ability for any that may happen. The proprietors congratulate themselves with having it in their power to present this unrivalled Stallion to the public at this interest ing and favorable period in .he history oflhe I blood horse oi the south—a period of which i , the gay and sprightly offspring of Mark Galla- I tin, Potomac, Whip, and Andrew, are eliciting ! the admiration oi a large portion of the commu nity, and commanding the attention of the i sporting world. To the progeny of ail these, we can with confidence recommend AR AB as | a most valuable cross, iu support of which, wo have these very powerful reasons: his purity of blood, bis ‘ tremendeous size, his exquisite and incomparable beauty, all oi which he combines in a higher degree than any other horse now on the continent; We mean no disparagement to others ; hut in order to show the high esti mation in which ARAB’S STOCK is held, we will record, a few facts which we think ’.ill establish, beyond the least possibility of doubt, their superiority. Bet Bounce, the Dam of Arab, sold for .4:2- 900, after she was 19 years old ; Coquette byu silOi 0, after she had broke down ; and -for a brood mare, Rcrsheba would have commanded any prir.ehiel - 'ot'cnei’would have asked, but she diedfjvjtisd gohi? i'rito”ihei - seton 1 training.

These ! plain, simple, aitd “nnvarnished facts, which ' need no comment,, lirit nielioned for no other i purpose than to great value of Arab’s Stock. In confirmation of what has been I said, we will give jju extract from a certificate ! of (fol. Win. R.

These sales have cer | tainly taken place. - I have preferred stating, to giving or procuring certificates. (Signed; WILLIAM R. JOHNSON. | Making the sum of near $20,000 that old i Bet and ten of her farriily actually sold for, and I some of them not three weeks old, and many of them not three years old. Stronger or mote substantial facts could not be urged in proof of the exalted station occupied by Arab and his stock in Virginia, and not a doubt can now be entertained that his colts stand in the very first ; rank of distinguished racers at the present day, ; to prove which we reler the public to the Amer j ican Turf Register, where it will be seen that he has produced as many winners as almost a ny other horse now living. Our limits will not permit us to go into lengthy details, but will give below the performance of a sufficient number of his colts to establish the fact, that he is the sire of t ace liorsos of the very first order, for which purpose it is only necessary to mention a few of his first colts, that were three years oh’ in 1830. They made their appearance on the Turf in in North Carolina, Virginia and N. York of this year, and won for themselves laurels which will never lade. One at Tree Hili, beating an Ar chie ; one at Long island beating an Eclipse with others. The same colt (Parkes) was then matched and run for §60(1, against Max well’s Filly, by Eclipse a single two miles, ’ which he ran wttl. great ease. He run at New Holland with 100 pounds, against all ages, win ning at two heats easily. At Lancaster lie won a match a single mile. He lost once out of fiveraces, and then was beaten by the celebra ted mile horse Fox, by Eclipset All were as tonished to see Fox run so closely bv a three year old, with a catch upon each, 2d heat won by six inches. One at Lawrenceville, beating a Sir Charles ; one at Salisbury, beating a Di on, at 4 heats ; one at New Market, beating lour others at two heats, one minute fifty-three seconds each heat; and one at Norfolk, beating an Archie at three heats first heat won by Stan- ! dard, 1 minute 49 seconds—second heat won | by the Arab Filly, one minute 53 seconds, and the third heat by the Filly, in 1 minute 55 sec- ! onds. Since which his colts have been runniu"’ with unparallcd success in various parts of the United States, and particularly in Virginia, as will be seen by the following extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas Goode Tucker, a gentleman of high standing and character, of Brunswick county, Virginia. Speaking of Arab he says, “Some of his get at this time, though in young and inexperienced hands, are gathering the laurels, even with such men as Johnson and Wynn as their competitors. Tuberouse and Bethany will build a high reputation which can not be pulled down it. Virginia where the value of his stock lias lately increased at least fifty percent. If ever there was a horse that has stormed the prejudices of a people, and tri umphed by dint of Superiority over the vile and insiduons attack of interested jockeys, ’tis ARAB.” PEDIGREE. ARAB is a beautiful dark bay, over 19 hands high, honest measure, of tins carriage and action, and commanding presence ; was sired by the well known and celebrated stallion j Old Sir Archy, of whom nothing need be said ; his dam old Bet Bounce by the imported horse Sir Henry, his grandam by Hart’s imported horse Sir Henry, his grandam by Hart’s im ported Medley, great-grandam by old Mark Anthony, g. g. grandam by imported Jo'lv Ro ger, out of the imported mare Jemmy Camme ron. (Signed) JAMES J. Il VERSION. Tiie same gentleman, after stating in the most glowing terms, his opinion of Bet Bounce and I her stock,for lie trained them all,] speaks of A ' rah and Bersheba, as the very best racers of | the day, and gives Arab’s performances as fol- j lows: “ At three years old, he beat Defiance, a full ’ brother to Washington, (by Timoleou) two mile I heats, at three heats. This race was won bv i Fhrtilla, owing to circumstances. Twenty i days afterwards, he beat Flirtilla, at Halifax, i X. C. two mile heats for the great stake—three I days afterwards, he was entered against the cel- i ebrated Sir Henry, and the heroine Janette, 3 mile heats. Here Arab’s superiority was clear ly evinced, for be beat them belli at three heats, throwing away the first, and winning the first and second and third heats. After that, he met Defiance, and settled a four mile contest at one heat. And in like manner fulfilled an engage ment with a full sister to Carolinian, atone heat of four miles. He then run a trial of two miles out with the celebrated Henry, beating him ■from 60 to 70 yards, and making the run, with training shoes on, says one of the timers, in three minutes and forty-eight seconds ; per haps the greatest gallop of two miles since the days of Childress. After that, be was entered in a four mile contest with that truly formida- | Lie race mare Janette, that won 14 out of 16 ! races, and died young. She was nearly allied to ARAB, coming out of his full sister, and begotten by his father. After running three miles or more, Arid) was going ahead as hard as the boy could pull him from 60 to 80 yards, and suddenly, for the first time in his life, he stopp ed till she had passed him 150 yards. He then started again, and in the three quarters of a mile overhauld her and stopped again, and lost the heat, and finally the race, as he positive ly refused starting the second heat and never woiddrun kindly afterwards.” His owner thinks, in making out his certifi cate, that by some oversight, Capt. Harrison omitted to mention one of Arab’s best laces: that Mr. James Summerville, of Warrenton, a gentleman of undoubted veracity ami character assured him that iu some four mile contest with Johnßichards, Arab had crttiinly distancedhim. Enough, however has been said to show his superiority as a racer, lit fact his racing pow ers have never been questioned nor indeed can they be. As regards blood he cannot he sur passed : nothing could be more pure at his foun tain, and not one dropol impurity in any of the tributary streams. As regards his size anti beauty, we honesty believe his equal cannot be found in anv living horse. We therefore in vite the public to come and see, and judge for themselves ; for an attempt at a correct descrip tion of this unequalled hoisc would be less than useless. He combines and till the strength and . boklnes of the lion with the beauty and activity ot the roebuck, and is unquestionably ,the best qualified horse on earth to produce horses of all uses ; an 1 as it is but just that we should render a vahiaulile consideration in return for what we receive we offer Arab’s services to the public on more ret sonabh terms tl an those < I any other I horse on the continent, ol bis grane A short list cf whining colts is subjoined to. gralily those of our friends who have not an op portunity of referring at all times to the Turf Registei ; and in almost every instance where hiscolts were not winners, they were the con tending nags : November 1832.—At Norfolk, for silver cup and urn, mile heats, best three in five ; won by Arabia helix, by Arab at four heats, beating an Eclipse and three others. •Same fall, at Jerusalem, she won the 2 mile heats m three minutes 52 second,and 3 minuites 55 scottds. •Same fall at New Hope, bay mare (Bry ants) Arab won the one mile beats, beating two others. •Same fall; at Jackson N. C. she won the one mile heats, beating the Eliza Walker, bv Eclipse. •Same fall, at Oglethorpe, Tube Rose, bv Arab won the mile beats, beating two others. Fall of 1833. she won the 4 mile heats al! i'imoniuin, Aid ; for the Jockey Chib purse, ; § 1000, at 4 heats, boating Orange Boy,by Sir ; Arcbey ; Florida by Contention, and Batche lor, by Tuck hoe. Spring 1831, at Belfield, she won the 3 mile < heats for the Jockey Club purse, S4OO, at 4 I heats, beating a Contention, and others. •Spiing 18’14 Row Galley, by Arab won the Proprietor’s purse, 2 mile limits, beating with ease Air. " bite’s Rapid, by Ratler, Eliza " tdker, by Eclipse, and Lady Mayo, by Sir William. Spring 1833, at Paris Tennessee colt race mile heats, won by Col. Harris’ State Rights, j being a Napoleon, and others. Same spring, at Bellefofte, Handy Cap. best > Sin 5, won by Division, by Arab, beating a Sir | Charles and a Alonsmur Tonson, at 5 heats. I'aliol 1833, at New Alaiket, sweepstakes, for three year olds, won by Rosetta Kendall, beating two Aledleys. And who in the South and West has not heard of Bass’ Filly? the far famed Rebecca Smith, now Betsey Rushlons ; who is still beating till competitors, and win ning fresh laurels in Miss, where she was taken and sold for §1,500 before she was three year, old ? Aid ofthe tmparalled success of Tartar by Arab, who in five contests vanquished with ! ease all his competitors, among whom was cele- i brated Robin Hood, at 3 heats with many others I that could be mentioned. The above, however ! shows - that Arab’s colts have contended repea- ! •tedlv fcsnccessfully with the colts of most ofthe | c<debated horses in America, at all distances, | from 1 to 16 miles, sustaining the high charac- I ter of their distinguished ancestor. Now is the opportunity offered to the cni- ! zetis ot Georgia, for breeding from this noble ; horse. Those wishing to improve their stock, know their interest. THOMAS G. SANFORD &. CO.
