This recommends it peculiarly to the attention of all thofe 
who wifh to have the pleafure of reading the Englifli claffic 
authors with grace and propriety, or to write and fpeak cor- 
rectly ; of thofe Gentlemen, who are intended for the Navy, 
the Army, the Public-office or the Counting-houfe ; or whofe 
juvenile ftudies may have been obliterated by an early intro- 
duction into thofe fituations ; and of all thofe who may have 
been deprived of the advantages of a liberal education. 
They are effectually cured of any defeCts in pronunciation, 
which do not arife from an imperfection in the organs of 
fpeech ; and inftead of provincial, difagreeable or abfurd 
habits, they acquire an energetic, a perfualive and a graceful 
manner of fpeaking, reading and reciting. Above all, the 
younger pupils receive this Angular and important advantage, 
that their minds are opened more early, their reafon is affifted 
in its exertions, and directed to fuch objeCts as naturally pro- 
mote the perfection, and the happinefs of human beings. 
This method is equally well adapted to both fexes, thofe ad- . 
vanced in life may receive inftruCtion privately, as ufual, and 
Ladies will be attended at their own houfes. 
Application may be made to Mr. Smeathman, at his Cham- 
bers, N° 14. Clement*s-Inn, Of whom, in a few days, may 
be had a fhort Treatife on the nature of eloquence, and the 
importance of learning to read, fpeak and write our own 
language, independent of all others ; with a plan of his mode 
of teaching, and the advantages to be derived from it. 
The following are detached extraCh from the above-men- 
tioned Treatife.
