THE subscriber has opened School for

 This is to certify that have been afflicted with most obstinate stammering for nearly 80 years which thought could not be correc- ted, short of d miracle. After having attend ed Mir. Holcomb's Institution days, amable to speak and read with perfect facility, I would earnestly recommend any one who is afflicted in the same way, to put themselves under his care. As l am persuaded that on the part of the pupil nothing is necessary, but a strict observance of his rules to ensure a speedy recovery.

That thou slept thy first sleep on "omans

And thy first infant accents were caught from
her tongue!
She guided thy steps in thy infantne years.
She anxiously watched when thy careless feet
strayed;
She hushed all thy wailing, she dried all thy
teare,
And delighted she saw thy young genius dis

And is not fair woman the swect'ner Of life
With man she divides her enjoyments and
