the tide flowing about 6 feet, will admit a reffel carrying
1350 bulhels of wheat to lay along fide, and u»lo«d into
the mill with Evans's elevator in abont three hoars. The
mill house is large and built of stone, founded on a rock,
tKe walls uncommonly thick and strong, (loch a piece of
mason work is rarely to bs found) contains five floors, two
water wheels, and three pair of the best French burr ftonoa

inches high,'of a yellow complexion, and might pass for a

in his drels; has naturally a coftdemncd and surly counte-
P" nance, altho' he at times affefis a smiling one ; his vilage
w " is thin, with large black whilkers; the whites of his eyes
oftien red : It is not recollected whether he has any par

seen (tho' light) the so rs of the whip, pl«ed*by judicial
authority, lor houfe-breaiing, lock-breaking, filling,

sneaking. As he took his flight upwards from here, at
the commencement of liarvcit, it is prti'amed he was per

We are informed that the gentleman who drew the
,{ 15,000 dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, was the
s proprietor of only a single Ticket —This instance of
•s good fortnne, (hews that it is well to be in Fortune's
[. road ; and is the more pleasing, as the owner of the
i prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent ci
tizen.
>f The Scheme of the Canal Lottery is certainly one
9 of the heft which has appeared—for, independent of
the ufeful objefls to which its proceeds are to be ap
plied, the fchemeis so calculated as to continually en
hance the value of the Tickets remaining in the wheel;.

e a capital prize growing greater, mufl increafc the va

will be found, that an undrawn ticket was yeftcrday
j morning, worth nearly 11 1-2 dollars, which, at
l ' the beginning, was worth no more than 10 dollars
a and so the undrawn tickets must continue to increale
A _ in vaUe, as fact as the drawing proceeds: Antl this
. circumstance will account for the number of Offices
which are opene 1 for the sale of Tickets, as the pro
re fits must be daily iucreafing; and in a few days a
te Ticket now felling at 11 dollars, will no doubt com
li mand 15 dollars, and must continue to get higher as
the drawing approximates to the five stationary prfcres
•i of 20,000 dollars each.
