purposes above defenbed are open for the reception of pupils
of either sex, who wifli to beinftru&ed in the Art of Riding,

them with ease, elegance, and fafety—their horses will be
carefully and expeditiously broke, for every purpose, and
made obedient to: he wiil of the riders ; the natural poweri
which are (hut up in them, will be unfolded by art, calling
forth uniformity of motion, and giving to that noble animal
all those beauties of a&ion which providence has so bounti

agreeable to the rate of charges stated in his hand bill. Swch

Dear Sir,
I fhoußhsve written you last wetfk, had I then been
able to afceruin certain fa6ts, liic rumour of which I had
heard. A Mrs. Beers, a near neighbour to me, the wife
of Eben Beers, and daughter of captain Samuel.Hoggins,
of this town, had been, for fourteen weeks, exceedingly
diftrelTed with the Rheiimatifm, to such a degree that for
fourteen weeks previous to the 29th ef last month, she -
had not been able to v. alk acrois the room t w;i with crut
ches, lave only ones, when (he made out with the'afiift
ance of crutches to hobble part of the way aero's her room..
On the 2'; th.of September last, ihe procured a set of your
metallic substances, and in lefs-than, an hour after Ihe had
begun to use them,.in the marines directed by you, Ihe
rose from her chair, and walked about hsr house, and on T
. the next day she went abroad to her neighbours, having :
thrown afidc her ciutdips. 1 have this day paid her.a visit 11
in company with her father, and Timothy Jon t. Esq.
who lives in the street wh.'re she resides and direetiy op- ° J
pofit-. to her rafideuce, and with Capt. Abel Burrett, who £:
is her next neighbor, and live* within eight yards .of ljer
d'oor. I requested hfr to relate her cafe over in their -Ti
presence, which flic did, and theft,gentlemen all with one -
voice, supported, from their own knovyledge, her flory. .
It is a duty which you owe yourfelf and'the world to pro- "
this event. • I am, very refpedfully, a '
Your .obedient frrvant,

Tl. t'.iay certify, that the fu'ufcriber, inhis visits amoti"
his people, ha,s used Dr. Perkins's metallic paints, to r.c>
lieve-pains and inflammations of virious kinds, and has
succeeded to his astonishment. They have seldom failed m
to relieve the head-ach„ tseth-ach, ague in the face, in
flammation in the eyes, cramp, cholic, rhtumatifm, oains
of the breast and fid j, biles, scalds and burns—Sometimes ' a
there has been a perfect cure ir.nji one operation. A lad
Vvhohad been confined three da/s with.h'gh symptoms of C i
a fever, very hwt and full of pain, by an operation of the
points, designed to relieve his head, his face turned pale
and cold 1 , his fever and pain immediately ltft him, and in
a tew days he was out of doors ; the year before, at the
fame season, he was taken with the fame symptoms, and T
■lay extremely sick forty days. The efficacy of the metal
l.*c (joints has gained great credit in this town.

I certify, that on the zift of Marchil 7*96, I s a w Dr. in
Perkins's method of rure by pointed metallic inflrumcnts, aa
tried with success in the poor-house or bettering-houfe in
Philadelphia; efpeciaily npen a man who was unable to
lilt his right hand to his head, as was tried beforehand, but
who after a few minutes operation, was able to remove it j* 1 '
at pleafurc.j and in my fight, put it witheafe on the top j} 3
of his head and back of his neck', and in all directions.
Nearlj the lame eile& took place.upsn a woman ; and
all that I saw treated, profelfed that their pains >-eased "Y
after being treated a fhorr time : and f'everal came volun
tarily, and in my hearing thanked the Dr. foi; cures he thl
h\J performed on them about eight weeks before, in re- 011
moving .pains fr,.m them, which they d«fared had not
since returned:—so that from what I saw with my own
