TO THE PUBLIC.
Having been appointed sole agent. by The
Managers. OF the GRAND NATIONAL
ANAL Lottery, and having opened
Lottery othce, two doors east Of Davis's Ho-
Tel, pennsylvania avenue, WASHINGTON city,
it may be deemed proper for me to sci iorIb
the claims which This lottery has to the pst
ronage of the citizens of the United States.
Without dwelling upon the advaBtases,eu.
dered to adventures by tie scheme will
observe, that the object TO be promoted bv
this lottery, namely, the connection of tie
.Anacostla and Potomac rivers by Canal,
cannot fail 10 be considered as truly natiouoi
by every one who identifies the Improvement
OF the Seat OF Government, selected By the
great Washington, With the honor and gratis
tude OF country enjoying all the blessings
OF freedom through his unparalleled exer
tons and virtue who, while yet the metro.
polls was I'D embryo, expatated much on the
Cana, now in part completed by moneys
raised from the drawing OF the two previous
classes OF this Lottery. TO these copside-
rations may be added the fact, that this ca
nal, in passing through the city, approaches
the Capitol within few yards, and. At fins
day, waters large portion Of National Re.
serve in this city, enhancing their value. and
consequently lessening the burdens of the
nation fact fully exemplifed by The cir
cumstance that the sales of public property
in the city amount to more than all The pub
lie buildings have hitherto cost the nation.
The Canal is so far completed that the
heavy materials for building the Capitol are
now brought in boats, and landed within a
lew yards OF the Capitol, thereby saving
to the nation many thousand. dollars. and
when completed the advantages derived from
il will be incalculable, not only to The ci,i-
zens OF Washington, but to the nation, as all
natl; nal property passes the canal toll free,
making the completion of the canal tluIya
national object.
