TO THE PUBLIC.
Having been appointed sole agent, by The
CANAL LOTTERY, and having openeds
Lottery Office, two doors east of Davis S HO:
tel, Pennsylvania avenue, Washington city,
it may be deemed proper for me to set forth
| the claims which this lottery has TO the pal.
| ronage OF the citizens of the United States
Without dwelling upon the advantages ten
dered 10 adventures by tie scheme, will
observe, that the object to be promoted by
this lottery, namely, the come cton Of the |
Anacostia and Potomac rivers by Cana,
cannot fail 10 be considered as truly nations |
| by every one who identifies the improvement .
OF the Seat of Government, selected by TIE :
great Washington, with the honor and grail
tude OF a country enjoying all the bIessiHg
of freedom through his unparalleled eXa
tons and virtue who, while yet the mer
polls was in embryo, expatisted much on tfs
Canal DOW in part completed by moner
raised from the drawing OF the i've previoa
classes OF this Lottery. To these conside
raticns may be added the fact, that this ca
nal, in passing through the city, approaches
the Capitol within few yarGs, and, at TIM
day, waters large portion of NatioHal he,
serve in this city, enhancing their ydIUe, arc
consequently lessening the burthens Of hs
nation fact fully eyemplihed by The cII'
cumstance that the sales Of public properly
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 ars
now brought in boats, and landed within
lew yards OF the, Capitol, thereby saving
TO the nation many thousand dollars, and
when completed the advantages derived from
it will be incalculable, not only TO be cill,,
zeDs of Washington, but TO the nation, as ali
naiT nal property passes the canal toll tr@,
making the completion of the canal hulya
national object.
