It may be deemed proper for me TO sci forth
The claims which this lottery has to tie pat.
ronage OF The citizens of The United States.
Without dwelling upon The advantages ten
dered to adventures by tie SCHEME, will
observe, that the object 10 be promoted by
tbls lottery, namely, tie connection of the
Ahacostia and Potomac rivers by Canal,
cannot faIl 10 be considered as truly national
by every one who identifies the Improvement
OF the Seat OF Government, selected by the
great w ashington, with the honor and graft
tude OF country enjoying all the blessings
of freedom through his Unparalleled exer
tons and virtue who, while yet the metro.
polls was IN embryo, expatiated'much on the
Canal, now in part completed bv mnneys
raised from the drawing OF the two previons
classes of this Lottery. To these console.
ratlons may be added the fact, that this "a.
nal, in passing through the city, approaches
the Capitol within few yards. and. At th,s
day, waters large portion Of National Re-
serve IN this city, enhancing their value. and
consequently lessening the burtbeps Of the
nation; fact fully exemplifed by the cir.
cumstance that the sales of public properly
IN the city amount 10 more than all The nub.
nc buildings have hitherto cost the nation.
i he Cana is so far completed that the
heavy materials tor building the Capitol are
now brought in boats, and landed within
few yards OF the. Capitol, thereby saving
TO the nation many thousand dollars. aod'
when completed the advantages derived from
it will be incalculable, not only 10 the CHI.
gems Of Washington, but to the nation. as all
national property passes the canal toll free.
