TO THE PUBLIC.
HaVi.g been appointed sole agent, BY ,ha
Managers, Of the GRAND NATIONAL
CANAL LOTTERY, and having opened
Lottery Office, two doors east OF Dayis's Ho.
tel, pennsylvania avenue, Washington civ,
| II may be deemed proper for me to set lortb
the claims which this lottery has TO the pat.
ronage OF the citizens of the United States.
Without dwelling upon the advantages ten.
dered to adventures by the scheme, will
observe, that the object to be promoted by
this lottery, na.Dely, the connection OF ,ba
Anacoslla and Potomac rivers by Canal,
cannot lall TO be considered as truly notionot
by every one who Identifies the improvement,
OF the Seat OF Government, selected bv The
great Washington, with the honor and pratt.
tude OF couotry enjoying all the BLESSINGS
OF freedom through his Unparalleled eyer
tons and virtue who, while yet the metro.
polls was in embryo, expatiated much on The
Cana, now in part completed by moneys
raised from the drawing of the two previone
| classes OF this Lottery. To ibese cons;6e.
rations may be added the fact, that This ~.
nal, in passing through the city, approacbs,
the Capitol within few yards, and, a, th,s
day, waters large portion OF National r..
serve IN this city, enhancing their value. and
consequently lessening the burtbens Of the
nation; fact fully exempli6ed by the cir.
c"mstance that the sales of public properly
II! inc eity amount to more than all the pub.
Tic -; buildings have hitherto cost the nation.
The Canal is so far completed thai. tho
heavy materials for building the Capitol are
a q brought 10 boats, and landed within
lew YARDS OF the Capitol, thereby saving
10 Inc nation many thousand dollars. and
when completed the advantages derived frn,,
II VIII be lncalcuable, not only TO the r;,;.
2ens OF Washington, but 10 the nnt;on &c iii
nate nal property passes the canal koH 10
making the completion of the canal t,niv >
national object. a' "o'y
