The Scheme of the above Lottery is al.
lowed by the best Judges to be as advanta.
geously arranged for the interest of adyen.
turers as any ever offered to the public.
he proportion of prizes is much greater
than customary-the blanks not being near
two to one prize. 1t affords also MANY
strong Inducements to purchase early, in.
asmuch as the frst three thousand tickets
that are drawn will be entitled to twelve
dollars each and the highest prize is liable
to come out of the wheel ON the next or
any day following. The great encourage.
ment which has been already given to thi.
Lottery affords a reasonable expectation
that the drawing will commence at an early
period.
But independent of all the advantages
peculiar to the scheme itself: The great
and good purpose for which this Lottery
has been authorised, viz, "to preserve the
genuine vaccine matter and to distribute il
tree OF every expence," ought alone to in.
duce the public TO give it every possible
encouragement without delay. 1t is well
known that many persons have Of late fallen
victims to the Small Pox by a misplaced
confidence in spurious matter instead Of
using the genuine vaccine ; so that already
the Kline Pock has been brought into dis.
rePute, In many places, and the old inocu.
lation has been again unhappily substituted
IN its stead. If therefore the people of the
United States are unwilling to relinquish
the advantages of the Kline Pock, or wish
to enjoy the benefit of this discovery, de
vested ofthe dangers and difficulties which
have hitherto accompanied it, they must
support vaccine institutions such as the one
now contemplated to be established-thesc
institutions by giving a free circulation to
the genuine vaccine matter, will greatly
facilitate its use, and by preventing the
mistakes so liable to occur from using inn
proper or spurious matter, they will engage
the confidence of the public in this invalu-
able remedy, and finally, it is confidently
believed, they will prove to be the means
of exti,pating the Small Pox entirely from
among US.
- For a more particular description Of
the above Lottery, Adventures are refer
red to the scheme itself, as published by
the managers. Every information, howe
yer, relative to this Lottery, will be giveR
