The above lottery is the most important that
has ever been furnished for the patronage of
the American people The effulgent charac-
ter of its prizes, astonishing demand for tick
cts, and the evident and glorious chances
which it exhibits, ought to be strong and suih
cient inducement to encourage individuals to
secure fortunes before the hungry hand of de-
mand places them beyond their reach. Ano-
ther fact ought to arouse sleeping energy to
action and remind the economist of the impor-
lance of early investment. Itappears obvious
that the price of tickets will shortly be advan-

LETTERS TO MT AGENT IN AMERICA.


DEAR SIR-It becomes me at tbs time, to
express to God my gratitude for the means he
had made use of, in restoring my long lost
health, by the use Of a medicine called Poha-
delphiS or India Eatr0c. For the last five
years have been so grievously afflicted with
rheumatism, that have at times almost wished
for death to relieve me from my suffering
seeing this medicine advertised, sent for
box, and do declare, that since have began
10 use it have never felt pain, and am sure
that by continuing to use it for short time,
shall again enjoy my usual health, and be
able to support my family, as heretofore. In
closed, send you three dollars, for two box
es, which you will please to pack up carefully,
and Mr.. Berney will bring it safe to me. You
may tell the world it ismy opinion, that the
Poladelphis is the only medicine in the world,
that will cure the Rheumatism. With Joy and
gladness. Yours, WIN. G. MEYER.
