Mr. Austin presents his utmost respects to the ladies and gentlemen of Bath, Bristol, and Cambridge, for their generous Proposals and repeated Invitations; the honourable Testimonies received from his Papils in and near London, has put it out of his Power to comply with any other Request at present. His plan is to attend his scholars in drawing, etching, painting, &c. at half his usual terms, and take off the Tax of Two Guineas Entrance, that Oeconomy and Generosity may unite in the Worst of Time;, as he has no other An bition than to assist to sweeten the Hours in the above delightful Studies. His Subjects for next Year are Etchings of the Grumblers, Groaners, Grinners, the Breaking-up of the Pump-Room at Bath, Quack Doctor, Camp Scene, Election ditto, Beauties of Cambridge, Cotillion, which he will execute in a free and easy Style with a Taylor's Bodkin. His new Method of restoring Old Pictures to their original Beauty, on the above Terms. Sixty-Three with bare Sixteen, Sure such Sighs were never seen; Now a Little Fairy dance it, Five and Forty Inches high; Then a Patagonian prance it, Cutting Capers to the Sky. Next advance Sir Chalkstone Hobble, Footing it with Lady Quick; But the Knight began to squabble, Spurn and mutter, prance and kick. N. B. The Humours of the Camps may be had at One Guinea, 10s. 6d. and 6s. the Set, in Portland-Road, Portland-Place, Door for Carriages in Norton-Street. Mr. A shall be ready to attend his Pupils when the Parliament meets, with his new-invented Hair-Pencils, properly prepaired, made of Fox Tails, called the Brush of Life | |
