Just arrived from Europe, the celebrated Hymen Saunders: who
begs leave to acquaint the ladies and gentlemen of New-York,
that he intends exhibiting several new and astonishing
performances in the dexterity of hand, different from what
has been hitherto attempted, and such as was never seen in
this province. . . [4 more lines]
His dexterity of hand, or grand deception, will consist of
variety of entertaining, as well as surprising tricks; and
for the better accommodating the company, his performance
will be divided into acts, between each act will be a
concert of music; the room illuminated and well air'd. 
Admittance half a dollar.  Mr. Saunder's stay in this city
will be but a few weeks.--Whoever desires a private
exhibition, by giving a day's notice to Mr. Saunder's at his
lodgings at Mr. Isreal's, opposite the honourable John
Watt's, will be waited on, except when he performs in
public.
