MAY DAY
W ILL Stand the ensuing Season at the
Subscriber's Plantation four miles be
low Cambridge, tn the Edgefield Road. He
will be let to Mlares at the low price of twelve
dollars the season, payable the 1st of January
1842; but may be discharged by the payment
of ten dollars within the season. Notes will be
required in every instance, when the Mare is
put. Good pasturage will be furnished gratis

quired, at 25 cents per daty. Every care will
be taken to prevent, but no liability will be in

will commence the lIt of March, andexpire the

Description.-May Day is a dark brown, with
a star in his forehead. and some white hairs on
his tail, 16 hands high, possessed ofuncommon
ly fine appearance, form and symmetry, and
has every form which constitutes a Race Horse
May Day was foaled mine, will be five years
old'on the 1st day of May next, from which
circumstance lie takes his name.
Pedigree.-May Day was sired by that cele
brated Stallion, Argyle, whose blood and per
formance on the turf, are so well known, that it
is deemed unnecessary to insert it in this ad
vertisement. His dam, Black Agness, was
sired by Old Pbenomenon, g. dam by Col. Sin
gleton's Old Ganomede, his g. p. dam by Cale
donia. Black Agnes was trained in the fall
of 1833, by Col. J. D. Williams, with his horse
Black Hawk, when he made his first great feat
on the turf at Newbury village, for the great
colt purse, which he won with ease. She was
not allowed to run, in copsequence of her be
ing six months older than the rides of the turf
required.. Iu a trial race with Black Hawk,
they make a dead heat. and she never was
trained afterwards. I never had doubted but
what she would have distinguished herself if
she had been tried.

ARGYLE is a dark brown horse, with
mut white, except a star, fifleen hands and
liree quarters high ; possesed of uncom
non bone and muscle, an] a form com
jining with perfect symmetry, every es
sential of a Race Horse. lie is now ten
rears old, having been foalugr in Maryland
a the Spring of 1830. Herwas sired by
he famous Maons. Totson, his dam This
le, was by Ogle's Oscar, hisgrandam by
Dr. Thornton's imported lrrie Cililen
ais g. g. dam by SMr. llall's 8pot ; and his
;. g. g. dam by Dr. 51arshall's H yder Ally,
who was by Lindsay's Arabian.
TVhe Performances of ARGYLE upon
he Turf, have placed him in the very first
-anik of Americau Horses as a Racer, while
hose of his get entitle him to an equal
standing ns a Stallion, lHe started first at
3rangeburg. S. C. in January 1S34, and
an at Baruwell, Augusta, Macon, Colums
iia, and Charleston, two, three, anad rour
miles heats, winning successively 8 races,
ive of thetm of fotir mile heats, beating
Patsy Wallace, R attlesnake, (3 times) Lu
:y Ashton, Rushlight, Bertrand junior,
twice) Vertuminus, &c. &c. Hie niever
lost a beat, atnd was rarely if ever put up
to his speed, until his extraordinary defeat
ey John Bascombe in April. 1836, the
:ircunmstances of which are familiar to
every one. Subsequenisly lie was trained
and rtmn with great success in Virginia;
and in Mlay last on the Centmal Course at
Baltimore, after running for Ihe first heat
f three miles, and losing is by a head in 5
minutes 47-seconds, he won the secotnd
beat in 5 minutes, 40 seconds, beitg the
yest seconid heat of three miles recorded in
mhe history of the American Turf, and the
most brilliant performanlce of a yeer sur
passing all others in the richness of its an
uals. During the seame week, and otn the
same coturse, one of his daudhters, Kate
8eaton, won the great sweepstakes of
31000, beating a fine field with great ease;
such a coincidence being hitherto unknown
upon the Turf.
A RGYL E stood lint one season and to
a lismited number of mnares, not many of
which were thorough bred, yet his colts
have woti nitie out of the eleven races fo
which they have been btarted, beatitng at
rne, two, and three mile., the get of matny
of our best Stallions, besides several imn
ported colts, somne of them in first-rate
time. TIwo of his get, Governor Butler
and Kate Season, are now unrivalled upon
the Turf by any thing of their age.
The owners of ARGY LE, in bringing
him back to the State in which (tho' not
foaled) he was first trained and gained his
earliest laurels, present him with confi
dence to the Public, as being in every way,
on account of his blood, sire and form, his
performances on the surf, so remarkable
for endurance, as wvell as speed, and the
extraordinary success of his get, worthy of
their entire approbation.

THE CULTIVATOR,
d A Consolidation of Buel's Cultivator am
the Genessee Farmer.

W. GAYLORD & L. Tucxaa. Editors.
PROSPECTUS OF VOLUME VIII FO
5 1841.
In offering to the agricultural public of ti
United States, the prospectus of the Eighth vc
, ume of the Cultivator, (the second of the Ne
Series,) we desire the privilege of taking o1
s patrons and correspondents familiarly and er
dially by the hand, and thanking them mne
heartily for the very liberal aid end support th
Is have rendered us, both by theircommunicatiol
and their subscriptions.
The Cultivator was established to impro
i. and elevate the Agriculture of the country;
give a proper tone to the morals and mind
e the farmer; to show him the dignity and impi
tance of his professioti; to store his mind wi
useful knowledge, and convince him that whi
all classes are and must be more or less depe
dent on each other, he alone of the whole c
I make any near approach to independence.
' there is one thing more than another, which
h this country givcs a man superiority over h
fellow men, it is knowledge ; and this knov
edge,-knowledge which is as essential to tl
success of tie farmer as of other men, it is it
n design of the Cultivator to aid in imparting.
In taking charge of the Cultivator, the Ed
" tors were aware of the arduous nature of ti
undertaking. Under its former conductor, th
journal had already attained a very high chi
racter, and we might have shrunk from the tas
of sustaining the reputation it had gained, <
from the efforts necessary to still Ifitther eleva1
its standing. had not the assurance of aid froa

any precedent in the history of agriculturi
journals of this country; if the almost unan
mous voice of the public press in our favor;
the multitnde of private vet flattering testini
,ials we have received, aidded to a enculatio
jprobably treble that of any other journal devi

as evidence. then we have certainly most abui
dunt reason to be gratified with our success.
If our efforts to render the Cultivator worth
of the patronage it has received, no expense c
labor has been or will be spared. As it is evi
ry where received asthe exponent of the cor
dition and prospects of Agriculture in the Un
ted States, we intend that every subject cot
nected with the great interest in any part of ou
country shall receive its due share of notice
and its proper place in our columns. The Cul
tivator will be a record of all iiprovements ii
the science of Husbandry; ofthe introduction c
new and important varieties of seeds an
plants; ofthe respective values aid adaptioi
of the several improved breeds of Horses; Cai
tie, Sheep and Swine, to different sections c
the United States; in short, it is intended ti
make it a work which shall interest, instruc
and be acceptable to all.
In the number, variety, and excellence of th4
lilustrations, the Cultivator is without a rival
enuer ut n,,e - - .
will be fully sustained, and increased interes
and attraction given by a greater number o
figures of American Animals, selected from oui
best specimens of all kinds, native and import
ed; by the drawing of new Implements, Agri
cultural and Mechanical; and by engravings o
such objects as will be better understood, wvhc:
given with such illustrations. The engraving:
and illustrations of tre present volume will be
nearly equal to one hundred in ntumber; and the
satisfaction they have given our patrons wvii
secure their continuance notwithstanding ti
great exptense they necessarily occasion us.

The high and universal reputation of the
Btantdeth Pills, renders it unnecessary to com
ment largely on their particular virtues. As an
Santi-bilious and purgative medicine, they are
unequalled by aiy. Their purifying effet on
the blood is universally allowed-all that have
ever used have approved and recpnmended
them.
R In many cases where the dreadful ravnges d
ulceration had laid bare ligament and bone, and
where to all apearance, no human means
ie could save life, have patients by the use oftheae
>l- Pills, been restored to good health; ihe devour
w itg disease having beencompletely eradicated.

,r- doubt, that the Brandret Pills cure the (uppe
ih reunti most opposite diseases, by- the one
le simpe act of continually evacuating the. boWlv
a- els with them, until the disease gives way;
mn therefore, whatever may be said of the -nz:oay,
if tie UTILITY of the Pt?c-xcz is now arro"Z al
in DOUBT.
ai As Brandreth's Pills cure Scurvy, Costive
'l- ness, and its consequences, sensfaring men,
ie and all travellers to foreign regions, should not
e be without, in order to resoit to them on, every
occsion of illness. No medicine chest is re

L- men will find this medicine one that will insui-e
k health to the people on theirestate.

c when over twelve months old, it no longer

d it would be well, therefore, fdr purchaser's'tu
carefully examine the Certificate. The seal is
'not wax. but embossed on the paper with a steel
