SCARBOROUGH.—HOT AND COLD BATHS.
CHAMPLEY has the honour to an-
nounce to the Visitors of Scarborough, that his
spacious and Improved Baths are again open for the
Season.

In the construction of these Baths, all the modern im-
provements have been adopted ; and, in particular, great
care has been taken to guard against the danger and in-
convenience of small saffocating apattments ; more espe-
cially to such as have any tendency to affections of the head
or chest, by making the rooms spacious and airy; and iu
fitting them up, no expence has been spared to render them
worthy pnblic patronage.
The Baths are delightfully situated near the Cliff, unit-
ing privacy with convenience, and those using them will
have the advantage of riding or driving along the new pri-
vate road which leads past them to the sands.
