ROWING MATCII......TIIIITSday, a Rowing Match
took place between six pairs of oars, Gentlemen Mem-
bers of the Funny Club, from • Putney Bridge to
Westminster Bridge, each in their own funnies. They
started soon after tour, and the match was most ably
contested, the different Members evincing a degree of
skill, seldom shewn by amateur watermen. The first
boat took the lead very considerably of the others, and
passed through the centre arch of Westminster Bridge
in a very capital style, to the great satisfaction of the
professional watermen, having rowed the distance,
six miles, in 41 minutes.

We consider ourselves highly honoured in being the
channel of communicating to the public some of the
thousands of cures performed by Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liams, No. 3, Red Lion-square, many of which we
have been eye and ear witnesses of. Meeting with a
list of cures we select a few, in order that we may in-
form the afflicted where to apply for relief, not doubt-
ing but they will prove universally acceptable ; espe-
cially when we announce that the afflicted may be re-
ceived as Patients in any part of the world, and more
especially that the Indigent are received gratis, at the
Royal General Dispensary, No. 98, High Holborn,
every day, four o'clock—but we understand, that all
others, i. e. such as reside in London, must attend on
them personally in Red Lion-square, at least one visit,
when they may be supplied with Medicines, provided
they con make it appear that it is not convenient for
them to give personal attendance.
One cure was performed on a Prussian sailor, who
was impressed into his Majesty's service on board the
Imogene, Captain Stephens ; after which he met with
an accident which rendered biro t'tally blind ; the
Doctor of the ship in vain used every exertion ; and
from thence he was sent successively into the hospi-
tals at Malta, Portsmouth, and Greenwhich, but dis-
missed from the whole as incurable, with a pension
for life ; since which period,la celebrated Oculist in
London pronounced he could not do any thing for
him ; —yet on the llth of May, 1811, he was restored
to sight in a few mientes without any Surgical Ope-
ration, in presence of Captain Alexander, of No. 8,
Thistle-street, Edinburgh ; Mr. Phillips, Master of
the Tavern, the Porcupine, (Free Mason's Lodge,
239,) Newpnrt-street, Newport-market, London, and
several other respectable witnesses, who witnessed his
being led to No. 3, Red-Lion-square, in total dark-
ness (and that too of twenty-two weeks standing),
and of his returning again to the Free Masons' Lodge,
without a guide ! !—Note. Almost the whole of the
Free Masons in London know the above fact, having
previously contributed towards his support ; he be-
