The Genuine Morgan Horse 
GJJENERAL GIFFORD, will stand the ensuing season, on Mon- 
' k -*days and Tuesdays, at the stable of Geo. A. Mason, 2£ miles 
north-east of Jordan ; Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at the 
stable of D. A. Munro. in CamiliuS; on Saturdays, at the stable of 
John C. Munro, in Bellisle. 
Terms, $10 to insure. Mares that are not placed directly i» 
charge of the subscribers, must be regularly returned through the 
season. All persons parting with mares before the usual time of 
foaling, will be held for the $10. Pasturage furnished by either 
of the subscribers, at 0 shillings per week. Accidents and escapes 
at the risk of the owners. 
We can confidently assert that in size, build and style of action, 
General Gifford more nearly resembles the original Morgan Horse 
than any other stallion, except his sire, the Gifford Morgan. 
The Morgans, as a breed, are so universally known and esteem¬ 
ed, that we deem it unnecessary to repeat their merits. 
General Gifford was got by the Gifford Morgan, his dam a Mor¬ 
gan mare. A full description of the origin of tiie Morgans, and 
the pedigree of Gifford Morgan, may be found in the Cultivator 
for 1846, p. 19 MUNRO & MASON.

Morse’s Grey. 
rpHIS celebrated horse will stand the ensuing season at the sta- 
ble of James Rice, in Spiegletown, three miles north ef tho 
village of Lansingburgh. He is a beautiful dapple grey, 15§ hands 
high, strongly and finely proportioned; has trotted his mile in 2 
minutes and 50 seconds; is a square trotter, and combines first- 
rale trotting qualities, and great powers of endurance, with unsur¬ 
passed gentleness and docility. His colts are justly celebrated for 
speed, bottom and good temper, are eagerly sought after in the 
market, and command prices varying from $150 to $500. 
The very high reputation of his stock as road horses, and the 
extraordinary prices they command, render him by far the most 
profitable horse to breed from of any in the country. 
Gentlemen sending mares from a distance, may rest assured that 
they will h^ve such attendance and keeping as the owners desire, 
and upon the most reasonable terms. The horse will be under the 
charge of his former owner, Mr. Calvin Mouse. 
Terms, $10 the seas. n. Insurance to be agreed upon. 
Communications addressed I. T. GRANT, P. M., Junction, 
Rensselaer county, will receive prompt attention.

The Imported Horse Consternation 
WAS bred by Mathew Hornsey, Esq., of Stitenham, Yorkshire, 
* v England, in the year 1841. He was imported by C. T. Ab¬ 
bot, Esq., in the year 1845. He is now owned by J. B. Burnet, 
Esq., of Syracuse, N. Y., and will serve a limited number of 
mares the ensuing season, at his own stables, near the village of 
Geddes, two miles west of Syracuse. The very best pastures, 
with plenty of water and the most secure fences, will be provided 
for mares sent from a distance, at two shillings and six pence a 
week. No mare taken except at the risk of the owner. 
Consternation is of a beautiful, unfading dapple brown color— 
stands 15 hands and 3 inches high, and is remarkable for vigor of 
constitution, uncommon development of bone and muscle, and an 
intelligent kind docile position He is compact and short-legged, 
yet of a rangey and majestic figure. His chest and flank are re¬ 
markably full and deep. His action is easy and graceful, yet proud 
and commanding. 
But what is more important perhaps than either, he is entirely 
thorough-bred. There is no taint of mongrel slock in his long line 
of ancestry. Indeed there is no horse living, with a more distin¬ 
guished or genuine pedigree. 
His ancestors were of unusual size and strength, and every one 
of them of good disposition and free from blemishes. His pedi¬ 
gree is briefly as follows, viz : 
By Confederate—dam Curiosity, by Figaro.—her dam by Waxy; 
Confederate was bred by Earl Fitz William, got by Comus—by 
Cervantes, by Sir Peter, by High Flyer, by King Herod, by Flying 
Childers. Figaro was got by Hap Hazard, by Sir Peter, out of 
Mrs. Harvey, by English Eclipse, &c., &c., See. 
This pedigree is in every particular true and genuine, and can 
be abundantly established by reference to certificates and volumes 
of the Stud Book in the possession of the subscriber. 
As to the character of Consternation’s stock, reference is offered 
to Ira Hitchcock, Oneida Castle; Henry Rhodes, Trenton; A. 
Ford or John Best, Rome, and to farmers generally in that 
vicinity. 
Terms $5 in advance, and $5 additional if the mare is got in 
foal. April 1.— 3t. J. B. BURNET. 
Chemical Manure 
Manufactured by “ the George Bommer New* York Manure Co 
'PHIS manure is made chiefly of Fecal Matter from the sinks, 
X in which is mixed a small portion of substances that are of 
themselves, powerful agents of vegetation, and possess the virtue to 
fix and retain the arnmoniacal gas of the matter. 
The great desideratum of the agriculturist has always been, to 
find out some process by which excrements might be solidified 
quickly, and all their fertilizing properties so strongly retained, 
that the manure may dissolve slowly and in proportion to the re¬ 
quirements of the plants, and therefore produce its effects for a 
time equal to that of farm manure. 
This process was at length discovered by the French Chemists, 
and is now carried out with complete success in more than sixty 
of the large cities of France, where such manure factories are in 
full operation. 
The “ G. B. N. Y. M. C.” has established a Factory on an ex¬ 
tensive scale near the city of New York, in which they manufac¬ 
ture this kind of manure, and as the fecal matter can be obtained 
in this country at less expense than in France, the manure will 
not only be made stronger, but will be sold at a price less than in 
the French cities, this price being so established as to afford only 
the reasonable remuneration to which we are honestly entitled,, 
the more so. as its manufacture is not of the most agreeable kind, 
and withal, troublesome and laborious. 
The manufacturing department is under the special charge of 
George Bommer, Esq., who has a perfect scientific and practical 
knowledge of manure matters generally; and the company has 
established a standard for the strength of its manure, from which 
it is intended not to deviate, so that its customers may at all times 
be furnished with an article really worth what they pay for it. 
Our manure is an inodorous grain, and as the substances from 
which it is made contain of themselves all the elements necessary 
to the fertilization of the soil and growth of plants, it is extremely 
well adapted to such purposes. 
To manure an acre highly, it requires 12 to 15 barrels, or 36 to 
45 bushels spread broadcast. Applied in hills, half of the quantity 
will suffice. Its application is simple and easy, and printed in¬ 
structions for its use will accompany each parcel sent to order. 
We desire it to be remembered, that our manure has no similar¬ 
ity to another known under the name of “poudrette,” although 
the principal component of ours (the fecal matter) is the same as 
that which is used in the poudrette, in a much less proportion; our 
auxiliary substances, as well as our manufacturing processes are 
altogether of a different nature and kind. 
It belongs not to us to eulogise further, the quality of our ma¬ 
nure ; what we desire at present is, to call upon the members of 
the agricultural community, to try it! and we have reason to assure 
them, that they will find it the most profitable manure they have ever 
used.
