TO THE PUBLIC.
Having been appointed sole agent, BY Tie
Managers, OF the GRAND NATIONAL
CANAL LOTTERY, and having opened
Lottery Office, two doors east OF Dsyis's Ho-
tel, Pennsylvania avenue, Washington civ.
IT may be deemed proper for me to SET forth
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, nanel y, the connection Of The
Anacostla and Potomac rivers by Canal.
cannot fail to be considered as truly not,oudi
by every one who identifies the improvement
OF the Seat Of Government, selected by ihe
great Washington, with the honor and ersti.
tude OF country enjoying all the blessings
OF freedom through his unparalleled exer
lions and virtue; who, while yet the metro.
polls was in embryo, expatisted much on the
Canai, now in part completed by moneys
raised IRON the drawing OF the two yions
classes OF this Lottery. To these console.
rations may be added the fact, that this "a.
nal, in passing through the city. approaebe.
the Capitol within few yards. and. Al Thus
day, waters large portion of National Re-.
serve IN this city, enhancing their value and
consequently lessening the burtbens Of the
nation; fact fully exempIified by the cir.
cumstance that the sales of public pronertv
m the city amount to more than all the pnb.
nc buildings have hitherto cost the natinn
The Canal is SO far completed that tho
heavy materials for building the Canitoy are
now brought in boats, and landed wi,b;n
few yards Of the. Capitol, thereby SAVING
to the nation many thousand dollG-, -.nd
when completed the advantages derived fror'
II will he inca!culable, not only 10 The r;,;:
zens OF Washington, but to the nation, as all
national property passes the canal toll free
making the completion of the canal truly
national object. ' Ivy
