SaAAAins to Perfection.

VINHOMAS G. PRErTYMAN has lately Patented,
L and is Manufacturing, Spring Saddle, much
superior to any that have hitherto been offered 10 the
public This Improvement consists in the suspension
Of the whole seat by two springs, similar to gig
spring. which being screwed the back part OF the
cane of the saddle, receives aniron bar, forming the
sweep of the caate; thus preserving from receiving
any injury by horse rolling in the saddle; and making
the saddle tree mere firm than 1t would otherwise be:
which cannot fail to give to both horse and rider
frame also the back of the cante of the saddle,
calculated to raise the valce potmanteau, and keep
II entirely clear Of The horses back. This be put
removed IN moment.
norder to prove to the public the superiority ofthese
Saddles, he will give few extracts OF letters from
