TO THE PUBLIC.
Having been appointed sole agent. by The

Lottery Office, two doors east OF Davis's Ho-
tel, pennsylvania avenue, Washing ton CITY,
It may be deemed proper for me to set lorlh
the claims which this lottery has to the pat.
ronage OF the citizens OF the United States
Without dwelling upon The advantages teh.
d, red to Adventures by tile scheme will
observe. that the object to be promoted by +
this lottery, na."ely. the connection of the {
Anacostla and Potomac rivers by Cana,
cannot fail to be considered as tJuI, not,oun
by every one who identities the inIproyepeI
OF The Seat Of Government, selected BY lie
great Washington, with the honor ano grail r.
tude OF country enjoying all the blessings
OF freedom through his Unparalleled exer
items and virtue; who, Wilde yet the metro
polls was IN embryo, expatiated much on The
Ianai now IN part completed by moneys
raised from the drawing OF The tw pre,icU
classes OF this Lottery. TO these console
ratlons may be added the fact, that this ca.
nal, in passing through the city, appIoache,
the Capitol within few YARDS, and, al tbs
day, waters large portion OF National Re-
serve IN this city, enhancing their value, ard
consequently lessening The burthens OF tie
nation fact fully exempIifed by the cir.
cumstance that The sales of public property
IN the city amount TO more than all the pub.
TIC buildings have hitherto cost the nation.
he Canal is so far completed that he
heavy materials tor building the Capiloi are
now brought in boats, and landed within
lew yards OF the Capitol, thereby savins
to the nation many thousand dollars and.
when completed the advantages derivedfrc
il will be incalculable. not only to the Cit,
zens OF Washington, but to the nation, as all
matte nal property passes the canal toll free,
making the completion of the canal lluIyi
national object.
