to supply a want greatly fcltby re

rounding towns and country who resort
to this place for relief from surgical and
other diseases. Such have often suffered
from the want of the various comforts
and attentions so necessary and agreeable
to the sick, and from careless and un
faithful nurses; and been subjected to
heavy and unreasonable charges.
Invalids will here be provided with
constant, faithful and comfortable atten
dance, snd at a rate much below the usu
al charges.
While the care of both rhvsicians will
be extended to every variety of disease,
it is intended by Dr. Speer, to give spe
cial attention to
ALL SURGICAL DISEASES,
PARTICULARLY TO
DISEASES OF THE EYE.
To these branches of his nrofpssion
he has given a large share of his atten-
ion lor the last twenty-five years, and
he will continue to devote to them the
experience acquired by a constant prac
tice miring mat time.
The Hotel for Invalids is not an exper
iment Its establishment is surrested
not only as necessary to supply an evi
dent want in this city, in the entire ab
sence of any special provision for the
sick, but is warranted also by the success
