THE LOTTERY. The following article appeared In our Paper sope time ago,•and was written in consequence of a former ai tack on LOTTERIES by Mr.LYTTaL TON. We have been desired to reprint it, as a full answer to that Gentlenian, upon grounds of sound philosophy, founded on knowledge of man kind, and the nature of society, which must al ways weigh more with all reflecting minds than the rant of specious declamation, or the visionary theories of shallow Politicians. We have only to assure our Readers, that none of the persona at ail connected with Lotteries have reqUested this re-insertion : " The attacks which have been made upon this source of finance seem to be founded hi what Doctor JOHNSON calls '• honest folly." The Persons who object to LOTTERIES probably mean well, but they judge from narrow views, and are ignorant of the nature of man, particularly a social state. It is impossible for any nation to exist without some amusement for the great body of the people, who might otherwise turn their attention to more vicious avocations. The passions and the'follies of the Majority, should, if pos sible, he rendered subservient to the interests of the State. In almost 'all countries where men congregate in society some species of GAMING has prevailed: It is hardly pos sible to render PRIVATE Gamtsto beneficial to the State \ but in the case of Lotteries that object of political eco nomy is easily practicable.' That Lotteries are attended with mischievous consequences is to say no inure than that evil must, in some degree, be attendant on all human concerns, and who can say whether the good re• suiting from Lotteries does not far overbalance the evil ? ' We know that the measure is a productive source of revenue, and in that respect ought not to be overlooked by,sound Po !is icians. It is a voluntary ."(tX which adventurous . spirits ; lay upon • themselves. They at leaft buy hope for a certain period, and hope is often more gratifying than possession it self, which soon cloys, while hope is a constant source of enjoyment. If'disappointment ensues, a sanguine spirit will .1 hope again, and hence he enjoys a renewal of pleasure. Who coo venture to say that the mimes' devoted to the Lottery might not have been expended in ihriety or licentious plea- ' ' sures ? The man disposers to sot away his money, or to squander it on loose women, fixes a temporary curb upon himself while • he rather employs his money in a Lottery adventure. No man has ever been• so wise as not to think that FORTUNE and CIIANCR have some influence over human affairs, and the ' great majority of mankind are.congilentirof that oaithon.— Why are Novels and Romances written, hut because they apply to a disposition inseparable from our nature, a dispo sition to I ely upon the-occurrence of some fortunate casual ty ? Look at GAMING among' persons of high rank, and the next degree below them Do we not hear every day of some I ' among them Who hazard all their property upon the turn of Dice, and bring themselves and their families to ruin? Will any body compare the desperate adventurer upon a Dice-bar or upon Garda, and other fatal instruments of ruin, with the sanguine speculator who ' confines his adventurous experi ment to the purthase of a share in the Lottery ? The Legislature has dote all that it email, and probably all that can he done, to prevent. illegal Insurance, and Lotteries I are rendered now as little mischievous as possible; but it is I not possible to guard against every species of evil. The pus session 1 ' of a Lottery Ticket, or humblest Share, excites an agreeable commotion in a family, in which the lowest servant I partakes. Promises, in eaFe of success, are often liberally I made, and as often faithfully fulfilled. The passions of I mankind must be emPloyed in harmless pursuits, or they may f take the most injurious direction. As to the distress which ' people bring on themselves by vent string in the Lotteries,pawo ing of their hroperty, borrowing, or stealing money for I hat purpose, the same may he said, and with much more force, agai,st any of the indulgencies of inordihate desires, what ever may he the object. Among the various designations of MAN, it may he fairly said that he is a GASSING ANIMAL} and if the inferior animals were not wholly employed in col lecting food, or securioginellistivcs num, ...---,,--,—_,,...i ~,,.. vention sufficient to so pply amusementa among each other, we mac infer from the nature of all sentient beings, that the I desire of deriving profit from others, that might wan t-1 equal capacity, would soon „introduce GAM xNG. No en- I mite is excited by gaming in tie Lottery ; . no quarrels, as in other Mods of gaining; nor is there the same total destitution of humanity which atten!s that most detestable f species of gaining, trotting a poor horse against time, ; when the miserahle animal pays often life for its success, falling dead at the feet of its• cruel master. It is different with horse-iacing, for in that the noble animals feel a sort of rivalry, and a spirit of emulation; but the wreteli who tortures a poor animal upon bets rigainst time is a monster in every • civilized state which is disgraced by suffering such outrages upon humanity. On the whole, .LOtte lies are highly heneGeial in a nation; for, 'as they are a voluntary Tax which people lay 'upon themselves, they are to a certain extent exempted from the infliction of others ; which Government might find it necessary to impose for the ; support of the State The ' Lotteries afford amusement for people in every class of life ; they take but little money .from , individuals, who, as has been said, are sore to purchase the delightful emotions of hope; they certainly confer happiness upon many, and they turn that attention towards gratifying l expectations which might otherwise he devoted to the indul gence of the Most flagitious and destructive pursuits. We have, we trust, treated the subject without sophistry, upon obvious principles of national policy,as well asupon a philosophical con sideration of the nature of man as he exists in civilized society. We respect the feeiings of those who regard the subject in a dif ferent point of view, but we must consider them as men who think upon a very contracted scale,' and are wholly unable to judge as wise Statesmen and sound Politicians. As to those who view the subject through the distorting medium of Party, we hold them in no' respect at all, particularly if, no der the protection-of a. Parliamentary Fallopt!, , , they aim ve nomous shafts against those who are not permitted to reta liate, but must stand the helpless victims of assault, like in , uriceut Cocks on Shrove Tuesday. ' The injustice of such at tacks is the more reprehensible, when they are directed, as in the case of the Lottery, Alice Keepers, against men who have raised themselves into eminence by diligence anti in- tegrity, and arr consequently well hilown to their fellow-citizens, while it is by nu means certain, that those who,defatne theru.would, in the same situation, hays conduct, edltionselvcs with equal ability and honour." The Amphion frigate, Captain W. B: Dasn wool), from South America, arrived at Portsmouth on Tuesday evening, on her way from Plymouth to Deptford, to be pant off. Ste proceeded on the rollowmg evening. She left Buenos Ayr& on the 6th of February, and Rio Janeiro on the 6ch of March ; was retained a fortnight on the Line hy calms, and several days at the mouth of the Channel by strong, easterly gales. While she l a y at Rio Janeiro, the American sloop of war Ont,no -arrived there from Valparaiso, and re ported to the Consul (as he bad be fore done to Commodore liowLEs, in the Ri ver Plate), that Lord COCEIRANt bad hoist ed his broad pendant at Valparaiso, in the frigate Maria Isabel (captured from the Spa niards), of 50 guns. commanded by Captain FoxrEn, having on board 400 excellent seamen, and that he had teu sail of vessels of war, of all classes, under his command, which were perfectly ready, • and in the most efficient state, for sea ; two of them mounted 40 guns ; and his Lordship had, by a special message, requested an interview with the Captain of the Ontario, and that the questions put-to him by his Lordship were evi dently intended to ascertain what was the amount of the specie which had been shipped in his Majesty's ships Andromache, Captain SHERIFFS and BloSsom, Captain HICKEY, and whether the same was the actual property of the Spanish Go vernment or of any of its authorities, these two ships being then on the coast with it on board.— The impression remaining on the mind of the Captain of the Ontario, was, that could his Lord ship vrefl ascertain this latter point, it was his in tention to intercept these ships, and seize the L property.

The Opera of 11 Barbiere di Seviglia, so well supported as it is, was doubtless very.attractive but DOFORT, the new dancer, seems to be the great fashionable magnet -at present. He was nine) applauded, and his wife gains upon the Public on every perform ance, • COYIINT.GARDEN.—Veniee Preserved was repre sented on Saturday, and Mr.' M'CacanY, for the first time, on account of the absence of Mr. YOUNG, performed the part of Pierre. The ta lents of-this Actor reader him. respectable on all occasions, hut he certainly threw too many dark' shades over the part, a circumstance that has been well accounted for by a diurnal Critic as arising from those gloomy, malignant, and exe crable characters, which most of our modern tra gic writers think necessary to design for this Ac tor and Mr. KEAN, and thereby, as has been justly observed, compel them to be mannerists'. We heartily wish. that the Muse of Horrors, who now haunts the Theatre, could be exorcised by Judgment, and banished by Taste,. that the Stage may. be restored to Genius, Truth, and Nature. TUE MARKETS.

THE SPANISH GENERAL RENOVALLES. (From " The British Monitor " of yesterday.) In the British Monitor of, the 31st January last, I gave (exclthively) an account of General Re- NoVAL.BS' arrival at New. Orleans, and, ot his defection from the Psuriotic Cause, and inserted his Proclamation on his arrival at that pierce. made some introdoct.ry remarks on that occa sion ; I hinted at his dishonesty in appropriating• to his own use and profit at New Orleans the ships,and cargoes which were confided to him by some of our City speculators ; and added, that General RENOYALLES hid bartered away common honesty tot loyalty, in ,order to obtain a pardon from his SoverOgn, and that the staunchest friend of the Spanish Government could not. applaud the conduct o`f a man who acted the / part, ot a merce nary villain. I; as well as many people, expected that the Spanish Government would indemnify our 'merchants, especially, as it Was suppose& that RENOVALLES acted in concert with the Spanish Ambassador in this country,'ptevions tti pismire ; for, in that case, the Ambassador, or his Government, would be in ,honour bound to pay the losses which the merctiants incurred for had he acted as 'he did at New Orleans on his own accord, and had had no communication with the Spanish Ambassador 'before his depar ture from this country, the Spanish Govern ment could not at all be 'considered as an ac= complice in this dishonest transaction. But an article appeared in the nines of Friday last, which I 'subjoin, in which it is positively stated that the Spanish Ambassador at our Court signed a, Convent ion with RENOYALLES previous to his departure from this country, in which it it stipulated that the warlike stores and ships should be delivered up to hint ; or in other words, that he might make what use he pleased of them. I here a nd trust, that the Spanish Ambassador at our CoUrt, a Nobleman highly distinguished for his honour, and loyalty, will normally dis avow the statement in the Times. Among pd." tate individuals, such a transaction could not be too highly censured ; and as I am convinced that the Duke de ST. CAttLOS would not, either' in 'his own name or in that of his Government, do 'any thing like that imputed to him in the Time:, it is, in my Opiniim, the bounden duty of his Excellency to clear up this matter ; for I must amain say, that if IteNovAwits had not acted won't! be entirely . on the former, hilt as I n t noVii 'stands (if the statement iu the Times . be cor 'rect2which I confidently trust is not the case) - it must in die opinion of the public bear equally upon both. It is possible that the Spanish Ambassador has already satisfied the merchants here who supplied . RENOVAILLES with ships and arms, otherwise," cannot conceive the right his Excellency had to authorize RENOVALLES to appropriate them to his own use. (From the Times of ate 7th April) Articles of a convention agreed' to in Lon- , don, and approved of by a royal order, dared the 3,lst of March, 1819, between the Spanish Am bassador and Don Mariano de Renovalies. of an expedition which sailed from Enal:ind, against the Spanish possessions 01 America :- ist.

The delivery up and purchase iii New Orleans of 6000 muskets and 4000 swords, at their full price, along with the ships, provided they arc in a sound state; if °Met wise, they shall be returned to their proprietors. 3d.
