the late Cfmmitfioners aflifled :n the management of the °'*
Hotel Lottery are requefled to undertake thic ardaoustalk
a second time on behalf of the public ; a fuiKcient num- j

By accounts received from the dHlcrent parts of the
Continent as well as from Europe, where the tickets
have been sent for falc, the public are allured that the
drawing will speedily commtmae, and that the care and
caution unavoidably ncceffary to insure a fafe disposal of

LOTTERY INTELLIGENCE.
t We are informed that the gentleman who drew the
b 15,000 dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, was the
proprietor of only a single Ticket—This instance of
'f good fortune, shews that it is well to be in Fortune's
road ; and is the more pleasing, as the owner oi the
: s prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent ci
tizen.
A The Scheme of tha Canal' Lottery is certainly one
of the belt which has appeared—for, mdepend -nt of
the ul'eful objedls to which its proceeds are to be ap
a plied, the febeme is lo calculated as to continually en
hance the value of the Tickets remaining in tha wheel;
becaul'e, while the drawing prqgreflV, fhs ?h:rt£<j of.
