I Dear Sir:— l am this morning in receipt of' ■ your favour of the 18th instant, requesting to j i have some of the Bahn sent out to your State as I soon as possible. Such is the pressing demand ! in every section, that I have, as yet, not been J able to supply the orders that have been some ' i time on hand. I have had an order from Au i 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, : I lias contracted for that State and Georgia, and ; ' I have shipped to him near five thousand bot ties, all that 1 could spare. As soon as I can, I 1 j will send him more; but when, 1 cannot say, as i . 1 must divide it as well ns 1 can, until I can sup- 1 ■ ply each State fully. 1 willdotnysclf the pleas- ( ; uro of requesting Dr. Calhoun to establish an a- ! I gency at your office as soon as other engage j : meats will allow. 1 have been putting up near | | ly two thousand per day, and now find myself j ' in want of about fifty thousand for immediate use, and have not fifteen buttles, but what are I | packed up for shipment. From the present de ' manti, I should not be surprised, if it were to 1 take five hundred thousand bottles a year to sup ply the demand. Yours respectfully, Ac. ’ll. B. MONTAGUE. I ADDITIONAL CERTIFICATES. Albemarle, April, 1836. Dear Sir:— We suppose you like good news, ! particularly when yon are mostly interested. We have but two bottles left of the box of Bahn you sent us. You can draw at sight for $ , which we believe will be the amount, after de- | ducting commission and expenses We wiii j 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 lias failed i in two instances in this neighborhood, but one of 1 I the persons that we have seen, thinks it was : ; (witfi him) 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 wc arc charged to keep a supply. The i ladies are Using it with the tooth-brush, and say ! 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, that this remedy is not only not of Northern or igin, (from whence all the patent nostrums i come,) but is a Virginia prep,nation, and by a Virginian. Nor does it detract from its efficacy, on account of the place of its preparation, (Pe tersburg,) once styled by Mr. Jefferson, the “cockade of Am-riea.’’ It seems to us, that all you now have to do, is to see to it, that voti keep a supply sufficient for the demand—for if it sells elsewhere a> it has done here, there will be no cod to the demand. Several merchants of my acquaintance, mean to send for a box. Allow us to congratulate you, and the public, at the discovery and use of the only remed y (ex- i Ccpt drawing) for tooth-ache, that has yet been j discovered. Respectfully vours, R. R. & T. T. G. Huntington, ) near Cabin Point, 24th March. I Dear Sir : I bought a bottle of your Balm ! from Messrs. , in Petersburg, in Februa- ry, chiefly because 1 had a servant who hud' suffered most ex' rutiatingly for some months. We had tried all the remedies which were in our reach ; an attempt was made to extract the tooth, lull broke it off. I caused the Balm to he used after wanning it in a cup—this was re peated with a second spoonful, when she vas entirely relieved. The next night she came for more, saying that a tooth on the other side ached, and also requested some for her husband j who, she said, had been suffering with the s ame 1 disease tor some weeks. 1 cheerfully gave it, ! and the next dayoti inquiry found that both were relieved. One of my neighbors of high respec tability sent to me for some for his wife. 1 have this day seen him, a id be assures me tb it j it afforded immediate relief', and there has been I i ir ‘t irn ; before she stiffen J almost constant- I lv,aod could not bear t>l< t col I witer touch ■ the tomh,and for two nights previous to th*ap plicatioti,she. had not been able to sleep scarce ly nt nil.

To filae Lovers of lEliae Morses THE IMPORTED HORSE. TMIJFFIaIi'. TRUFFLE is a rich Mahogany Bay, and as to symmetrical, grand, and majestic, appear ance is second to no horse living, his blood is unquestionable, his size uncommon, being six teen hands high, and his form superior to most oi true blooded horses, this distinguished horse is now a citizen of Georgia. The one half of Truffle is owned by Ex-Governor Janies Bar bour, of V irgihia, and the other half belongs to Richard Rowell of Baldwin county Georgia. He will stand t;ie ensuing season at the planta tion BELFAST, eight miles above Milledge ville, on the Eatonton Road, and he will be let to mares on the following terms: Fifty Dollars, the season, and a dollar to the Groom, and one hundred dollars toinsure a marc in foal. Should any person put a mare the spring season, and she does not prove iu 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 fitst day of July next. No accountability for accidents, though all the' attention will be paid that can be, as TRUF 4LE 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. TRUFFLE was sired by Truffle ofEnganland he by Sorcerer, by Trumpetor, by Conductor, by Matchem, by Cade, by the Godolphian A rabian the dam of Truffle was Helen By Whis key, by Saltqin, by Eclipse, By Marske, by ; Bartlett’s Childers, by tiie Dariey Arabian, the dam of Helen was Brown Justice, by Justice, out of Zenia, by’ Challenger Xaniippe, bv E clipse, tiie Dam of Old Truffle, was by Buz zard, lie by Woodpecker, by Herod by Tartar, by Partner, by Gig, by the Beverly Turk, Whiskey the Sire of Helen, by Saltaui, bv E clipsc, tiie dam of Whiskey, by Herod, the'dam of Woodpecker, by Cade, by tiie Godolphin A rabian, Virago, the d im of Saltam, by Snap, by Snip, by the Flying Childers, by the Dariey Arabian. It will be seen by those conversant with the pedigrees of horses, that Truffle’s blood is not only rich, but he is deeply imbued with the i bioa l of the best horses of their day, and many i of these the best that the world afforded. RIUHARC ROWELL. I Feb. 14 s—ts. | THE THOROI.GH-BKED HORSE. i st nd the eusuing season at the house of Maj. THOMAS G. SANDFORD, three ! miles North of EATONTON, aud will be let to ! mares at thirty-five dollars the season, which may be discharged by the payment of thirty dollars if : paid bcibrre the season expires; fifty dollars to i insure, to he paid as soon as the fact is ascertained, j or the property transferred; aud one dullartoihe ; groom in every instance. Good and extensive i pasturage will be provided for wares from a dis tance, and they will he fed with grain if directed. All possible care will be taken to prevent aeci ents. but no liability 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 the history ofthe j blood horse oi the south—a period of which | the gay and sprightly offspring of Mark Galla- I tin, Potomac, Whip, and Andrew, arc eliciting I the admiration of a large portion ofthe conimu- ! nity, and commanding the attention of the j sporting world. To the progeny of all these, we can with confidence.recommend ARAB as a most valuable crosr,, in support of which, we have these very powerful reasons: his purity of blood, bis tremendeous size, his exquisite and incomparable beauty, all of which he combines iu a higher degree than any other horse now on the continent. We mean no disparagement to others ; but in order to show the high esti mation in which ARAB’S STOCK is held, we will record a lew facts which we think will establish, beyond the least possibility of doubt, their superiority. Bet Bounce, the Dam of Arab, sold for §2- 900, after she was IS) years old ; Coquette for S 10: .’O, after she bad broke down; and fora brood mare, Bersheba woiiid have commanded any price her owner would have asked, but she died alien going into her second training. She was thought by her trainers to be the best mare the world ever produced. For $2,5u0 were refused, TanffitSs believed sold for 33000,; for Eliza Kirby, 2,500 has been re used ; $2,250 was refused for Gen. Brooke the last son of Bet Bounce, and Arab himself sold for SSOOO, and cannot be bought at this time not less than dotiblo that sum. These plain, simple, and unvarnished facts, which need no comment, are metioned for no other purpose than to shew the great value of Arab's Stock. Jn confirmation of what has been said, we will give an extract from n certificate of Col. W in. R. Johnson whose opinions in Vir ginia, and every where else, are acknowledged to be unquestionable : “Bet Bounce and her stock are among our first favorites and I give the following facts for thinking so: I sold the one half of Bet Bou nee at 19 years old, to Dr. Mingo, for one thou sand dollars; she was the dam of Arab, whoso standing and character is admitted.- Os Ladv Hamilton, by Sir Arthur (tho dam of Arab) her first colt, that was sold for 1,500 dollars of Coquette, by Sir Archie, that I sold for l,oi>o after breaking down. She was the dam of Jeannette, by Archie, that I gave fifteen hun dred dollars for, and refused 2,500; also By mm’ bv Virginian,, which at two years old, sold lor $1,50t) ; ofSilvertail, (a filly) by Archi tliat commanded at one year old S,IOOO ; of a two year old Archie Filly that would bring SIOO >: and of a sticking filly at her sido, by Medley, for which has been offered. Bet Bounce was also the dam of Bersheba by : \rchie that die 1 at three years old, and was the i favorite of the family’. She never appeared in I public but once, when she contended with the Ison of old Bet, that I give AIOOO for at 11 months old. Sally Mel'vi'le, by Virginian, her j daughter, I sold for $1,600 before she was a ; I year oi l. Bet Bounce is also the dam of a L two year old Archie filly of such promise as to I ’ Induce Mr. Mingo, her owner tb enter into a' sweepstake at New-York, to be run for next spring, there are 17 subscribers at 500 dollars each : and of a yearling colt by Archie, that told me he had offered when he was three weeks old. Her stock are generally large handsome and admired, and almost the whole of them alluded to by me, would command very high prices at this time, some- of them three or four times their cost. These sales have cer tainly taken place. 1 have preferred stating, to giving or procuring certificates. (Signed; WILLIAM R. JOHNSON. Making the sum of near $20,000 that old Bet and ten of her family actually sold for, and some of them not three weeks old, and many of them not three years old. Stronger or more substantial facts could not be urged in proof of the exalted station occupied by’ Arab and fits 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 refer the public to the Amer ican Turf Register, where it will be seen that he has produced as many winners as almost ti 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 be is the sire of race horsos of the very first order, for which purpose it is only necessary to mention a few of his first colts, that were three years old 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 fade. One at Tree Hill, beating an Ar- | chie ; one at Long island beating au Eclipse) with others. The same colt (Parkes) wss then matched and run for S6OO, against Max well’s 1 illy’, by Eclipse a single fwo miles, which he ran wttli great ease. lie run at New Holland with 100 pounds, against all ages, win ning at two heats easily. At Lancaster he won a match a single mile. He lost once out of five races, and then was beaten by the celebra ted mile horse Fox, by Eclipse. All wore as tonished to sec Fox run so close) v by a three year old, with a catch upon each, 2d heat won by six inches. Ong at Lawrenceville, beating a Bir Cnarles ; one at Salisbury, beating a Di on, at 4 heats ; one at New Market, beating four 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 running with unparalled success iu various parts of the United States, and particularly in Virginia, as will he seen by the following extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas Goode Tucker, a gentleman ■ of high standing and eharacter, of Brunswick county, Virginia. Speaking of Arab he says, “Some of his get at this time, though in young and inexperienced bands, 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 has 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 insiduous attack of interested jockeys ! ’tis ARAB.” I PEDIGREE. ARAB is a beautiful dark bay, over 19 ' hands high, honest measure, of fine carriage j and action, and commanding presence ; was ■ sired by the well known aud celebrated stallion j Old Sir Archy, of whom nothing need be said ; | his dam old Bet Bounce by the imported horse i Sir Henry, his grandam by Hart's imported ! horse Sir Henry, his grahdam by Hart’s im- I ported Medley, great-grandam by old Mark Anthony, g. g. grandam by imported Jolly Ro ger, out ofthe imported mare Jemmy Canime ron. (Signed) JAMES J. H YRRSION. The same gentleman, after stating in tiie most glowing terms, his opinion of Bet Bounce and her stock, for he trained them all,] speaks of A rab and Bersheba, as the very best racers of the day, and gives Arab’s performances as fol lows : “ At three years old, be beat Defiance, a full brother to VV ashington, (by Timoleon) two mile ! 1 heats, at three heats. This race was won by Fhrtilla, owing to circumstances. Twenty j' days afterwards, he beat Flirtiila, at Halifax, i N. C. two mile heats for the great stake—three 1 1 days afterwards, he was entered against the cel- i ebrated Sir Henry, and the heroine Janstte, 3 : ; mile heats. Here Arab’s superiority was clear- !' ly evinced, for be beat them both at three heats, I 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, at one 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 ofthe timers, in three minutes and forty-eight seconds ; per haps the greatest gallop of two miles since the ' days of Childress. After'that, lie was entered ' in a four mile contest with that truly fbrmida- 1 ble race mare J anette, that won 14 out of 16 I' 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, Arab was going ahead as hard as the boy could [lull him from 60 to 80 yards, and suddenly, for tiie first time in his life, he stopp ed till she had passed him 150 yards. He i then started again, and in the three quarters of a mile ovcrhauld her and stopped again, and lost the heat, and finally the race, as he positive ly refused starting the second heat and never wouldrun 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 races: that Mr. Janies Summerville, of Warrenton, a gentleman of undoubted veracity and character assured him that in some four mile contest with Johnßichards, Arab had crtainlv distancedhim. Enough, however has been said to show his superiority as a racer. In factvhis racing pow ers have never been questioned nor indeed can they bo. As regards blood ho cannot be sur passed : nothing could bo more pure at his foun tain, and not one drop ofimptn ity in any of the tributary streams. As regards his size and beauty, we honesty believe his equal cannot he found in any living horse. We therefore in vite the pii’f'ic to come and sec, and judge for thenisejvos; for an attempt at a correct descrip tion of this unequalled horse would be less than useless. He combines and all tho strength and boldnes of the lion with the beautv and activifr of tho roebuck, and is unquestionably ,the best qualified horse on earth to produce horses of ah uses ; and as it is hut just that we should render a valnanble consideration in return for what we ' receive wc offer Arab’s services to the public on | more reasonable terms than those of any other ! horse on the continent, of his grade ‘ A short list of winning colts is sulrjoiued to gratify those of our friendswho have not an op * portunity of referring at all times to the Turf ’ Rogi»ter ; and in almost every instance where t hi*colts 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 Felix, by Arab at four heats, bcatiiig an Eclipse and three others. Same fall, at Jerusalem, she won the 2 mile heats in three minute* 52 second, and 3 minuites 55 scends. Same fall at New Hope, bay mare (Bry ants) Arab woa the one mile beats, beating two others. Same fall, at Jackson N. C. she won the one mite heats, beating the Eliza Walker, by Eclipse. Same fall, at Oglethorpe, Tube Rose, by Arab won the mile floats, beating two others. Fall of 1833. she won the 4 mile heats at Timonium, Md ; for the Jockey Club purse, $ 1000, at 4 heats, beating Orange Boy,by Sir Archey ; Florida by Contention, aud Batche lor, by Tuck hoe. Spring 1831, at Belfield, she won the 3 mile heats for the Jockey Club purse, S4OO, at 4 heats, beating a Contention, and others. Spring 1834 Row Galley, by Arab won tiie Proprietor’s purse, 2 mile heats, beating with ease Mr. White’s Rapid, by Ratler, Eliza Walker, by Eclipse, and Lady Alayo, by Sir William. | Spring 1833, at Paris Tennessee colt race mile heats, won by Col. Harris’ State Right*, i being a Napoleon, and others. Same spring, at Bellefdtte, Handy Cap. best Bin 5, won by Division, by Arab, beating a Sir Charles and a Monsieur Totismi, at 5 heats. Tall of 1833, at New Mai ket, sweepstakes, for three year olds, won by Rosetta Ketidall, beating two Medleys. And who iu the South and West has uot heard of Bass’ Filly 1 the fax famed Rebecca Smith, now Betsey Rushlous; j who is still beating all competitors, and win- ; ning frosh laurels iu Miss, whore she was taken I ahd sold for $1,500. before slie was three years j old ? A.».d of the unparalled success of Tartar ' by Arab, who in five contests vanquished with j caste all his competitors, among whom was cells- j bra ted Robin Hood, at 3 heats with many other-;! that could be mentioned. The above, however ; shows that Arab’s colts have contended repea- j tedly sX successfully with the colts of most ofthe j ci debated horses in America, at ail distances, j from 1 to 16 miles, sustaining the high charac- ; ter of their distinguished ancestor. j Now is the opportunity offered to the citi-; zens of Georgia, i'pr breeding from this noble' horse.
