Canal now in part completed by money

classes OF this Lottery. To these consIdt
| ratiGns may be added the feet, that this ca

the Capitol within few yaICs, and, at Tbs

serve in this city, enhancing their value, ard
consequently lessening the burthens OF ls

The Canal is so far completed that The
heavy materials for building the Capitol are
now brought in boats, and landed within

to the nation many thousand dollars, and
when completed the advantages dersedhva
it will be incalculable, not only 10 the elIr.
