To the public.  Peter Vianey, music, fencing, and dancing-
master; who keeps a private and public school opposite to
the Hon. John Watts's, at Mrs. Hayes's, near the exchange,
having heard [   ] a report has been spread, that he asks
two guineas a quarter, and two guineas entrance, for
teaching young ladies and gentlemen to dance, finds it
necessary to contradict publickly a report certainly
publish'd to prevent him from getting scholars.---His demand
was no more than one guinea a quarter and one guinea
entrance, however at the desire of some gentlemen and
ladies, he will for the future teach as a pistole a quarter,
and a pistole entrance, and will wait on any ladies or
gentlemen that chuse to be taught, at their own homes.  He
will teach French country dances, either at home or abroad.
