A Refugee from New-Haven, 3 .
FINDING that nothing is to be done at present in
the business to which he ^as bred, has, for the
1 lupport of his family, opened a school in Little Queen
ftreet, near Smith-street, in which he teaches reading,
and English grammar, writing in all the hands in use,
arithmetic, and the Latin and Greek languages. The
plan and terms may be known by applying according to
the foregoing directions. He returns his thanks to those
gentlemen who have favoured him with the tuition of
their children, and takes this method to follicit his loyal
friends and the public, to encourage him in his present
situation, by promoting his design.

Subject to a deduction of 15 per Cent.
While the spirit of liberality has so eminently distin
guished itfeif in affording relief to every object of diftrefe;
it is painful to alk for any further exertions of the fame
munificence: Confident, however, that the generosity
of the Public will ever keep pace with the wants of indi
viduals, it is presumed, that, merely to mention the
continuance of misfortune, will be fufficient to excite
an attempt for its removal. To this end the present
lottery is designed ; it will doubtless therefore meet with
encouragement.
Tickets to be had of the former managers, and of the
several Printers.
The profits arising from this Lottery, will be paid into
the hands of the Treasurer of the Vestry of the poor.
To be draven as soon as full.
