For the Benefit of others'! desire that my case
may be made public. I was affli&ed for a long time
with a pain in my arm, during which I applied to
several able Physicians in the city, but could find
no relief; the pain at length took away the use of
my arm and I could get no ease either day or night.
In this Condition I difpaired of relief, but hearing
of many cures performed by Doctor Yeldall, I ap
plied to him, who in a short time removed the pain,
restored the use of my arm, and I now follow my
business. JoJeph Spenser, Grocer, in Second-freet.
For the benefit of others be it made public, that
I had a large Wen growing on my neck for 5 years,
during which I applied to several surgeons, but they
all told me I fnould bleed to death that instant it
was cut, but hearing that Dr. Yeldall performed a
great many of the like, I applied to him, who took
it off with very little trouble, and without the loss
of a tea-cup full of ' blood.

in their lips and being desirous that they may reap
the lame benefit that I have done, I desire that you
may make my case public. I was afflided with a
cancer in my lip for three years, during which I
applied to many though without effe&, until I ap
plied to you, who in less than half a minute took
out the cancer and in five days healed up the part
so as not to be perceived from whence the cancer
was took. "Christopher Hughes, Bedminfer-toevn

may make my case public, that those being impo
sed upon and labouring under the fame complaint
may know where to apply for a cure. I was blind
for lour years, during which I applied to many, but
without finding the lead benefit. I was fix weeks
under a late famous eye Doctor's hands who took
my money, and did me no good; but hearing that
you took nothing in hand but where you had a
probability of perfecting a cure, I applied to you,
who in one minute brought me to fight, and I can
now fee to ride. William Bell, Vincent to^njhip,

From the Lyon's Month.
HYMN for NATIONAL PEACE.
I.
REAT ruler of the earth and flties,
A word of thy Almighty breath
Can fink the world, or bid it rife:
Thy smile is life, thy frown is death.
11.
When angry nations rush to arms,
And rage, and noise,, and tumult reign,
And war resounds its dire alarms,
And flaughtcr spreads the hostile pain;
111.
Thy fov'reign eye looks calmly downy
And marks their courfc, and bounds their pow'r;
Thy word the angry nations own,
And node and war are heard no more.
IV.
Then peace returns with balmy wing,
(Sweet peace! with her what blegings fled!)
Glad plenty laughs, the vallies sing,
Reviving commerce lifts her head.
V.
Thou good, and wife, and righteous Lord,
All move subservient to thy will;
And peace and war await thy word,
And thv sublime decrees fulfill.
VI.
To thee we pay our grateful fongs,'
Thy kind protection hill implore:
O may our hearts, and lives, and tongues
Confess thy goddnefs and adore.
