Nothing can more clearly demonfirate the general
fentiment of the fuperiot icy of the prefent State Lot-
tery Scheme, than the unprecedentedly great fate of
Tickets and fhares which took place on Saturday and
Monday lall, when the public perceived that there
was not the lean probability of attaining them at a
cheaper rate, according to an unfounded impreffion
that the price would be lower the nearer the drawing
approached. Such another fele 33 that of Monday
in particular, will not leave a purchafeable Ticket or
Share in the Lottery mat ket. In truth, the two im-
mettle prizes of 30,0001. each rprizes that all the
world are aiming at, are alone fufficieut to ezhauft
the ',relent little remaining flock
The return of eruptive complaints at this feafon,
when the cold weather prevents the perfpiration from
afling as a corredive, is (hewn in many habits by
itching, and much irritation under the fkin. It is now
arcertained that the aertion of SPILSII-lkY'S Patent
Antifcorbutic Drops gives inftant relief; by removing
all ()battalions in the fecretory velfels, 'even when,
under the affirm of Scrophula. Its good effefts as a
medicine in giving appetite, pleafant to take, and re-
quiring no ceffation of billings or recreation, and its
exiftence as a remedy in various complaints for more
than 3o years in repute, are fails that deny deception.

TiO rim EDITOR OP THE STIR:
Sta--In the STAR of the 9th of the prefent month
it is Hated, that the Brunfwick, of 74. grans, went into
Dock at Portfmouth to he repaired ; her poop to be
taken off, and 24 pounders in place of 32-pounders,
to be put on her lower gun-deck. And that the
Jupiter, alto of 74. guns, is to be fitted in the fame
manner. I agree with you in opinion, that it is right
to take the poops off weak (hips, and, if found need-
Cary, to reduce the weight of metal, rather however
upon the upper deck than upon the lower, becaufe
24. pounders upon the upper deck, are, as may eafily
be proved, a much greater (train upon the top fides,
than 32 pounders upon the lower gun-deck. If the
(hips are not intended to receive any material repair,
and their aaual force may admit of diminution,
without prejudice to the fervice, this mode may, at a
fmaller expence than repairing, enable the (hips to
run fume time longer. But, tinder different cir curn-
fiances, where an increafe of force is wanted ; where.
the only (hips to which you can have recourfe, are in
too bad a Hate to proceed to tea, without receiving
material repairs; it mutt be evident that the mode
you recommend, would not anfwer the purpofe.
And fuch was the atinal (late of the navy, when the
mode of doubling and fitting with diagonal braces ;
as recommended by the late Mr. Snodgrafc, fuperin-
tending (hip Wright to the Eall India Company, was
adopted by the Admiralty at which Lord Melville
prefided. Twenty.two (hips of the line and a number
of Frigates were, with unprecedented rlifpatch, made
fit for fervice, in as few months, as they wr.old pro.
bably have required years, in repair in the utital
way; and at one half the expence, becaufe there wan
no occafion to open up the Chips, nor to remove and li
replace any part of their tinibers. The fpeed ss ith
which this mode of repair was accompli(hed, en shied
Lord Barham's Admiralty to i einforee Sir It shert 1
Calder's fleet, and that of the brave Lord Nelfun ; to
you, Sir, I need not mention the cantequences. This
ennfitleration alone, is fufficient proof that the
doubling anfwered the 0-Mensal pu-pk.les for which
I it was intended ; and I fee no realin for (*rippling
that it has not anfwertd in other refpdts. The only
fair trial that has come to my knowlenge, is the Au-
dacious, of 74 guns; the was in a violent hurricane
in which a fhip that was not well fecured, mull have
foundered. She returned I.rfe to port, has been re-
fitted, and is now ready for lea.
It may be proper to Hate what the condition of the
Audacious was %then taken into Dock to be doubled:
fhe was contraEt built,had run about 22 years with-
out (I have been told) receiving any material repair;
(he was very leaky, and reputed a very weak 80,
wholly unfit for lea without a great repair. She
was doubted but not fo completely as recommended
by Mr. Snodgrafs, for want, I believe, of materials.
Since her return to port 1 afked her carpenter to
what be imputed her fafety in In violent a gale ? his
anfwer was, molt undoubtedly to the doubling.
He laid he did not approve of the Diagonal
Braces, becanfe the bolts intended to fecure their tip-
per ends had given was, and Item their working
Imile, admitted false water during the Holm. This,
however, only proves that braces bore a great
Brain in lupporting the (hips tides, and were not inf.
ficiently fecured at the upper ends.
By infetting the above in your valuable Paper,
you will much oblige a Conflant Reader, and
CAPTAIN UT THIL NAVY.
