IN the neighborhood; and know or no lands between
the Bull Run Mountains and Poto. Run which rewards
the agriculturalist better. 1t is peculiarly suited to
grass, and q fine timothy meadow may be had upon it.
There is an abundance of hickory and oak for fencing
and fuel, and the whole width OF the land is watered
bv the run on which it lies. The Dwelling House is
spacious, convenient and fashionable, and in complete
repair, a new kitchen and laundry connected to the
house bv a covered way, and every other house neces-
sary thereto. The yard and Garden are extensive and
handsomely laid out, and so beautiful is the sward OF
the ward, so regular and gradual the descent OF the
ground, between the house and the run, which is about
loo yards off, and in nearly q parallel line with the
same, whilst the eminence is so commanding as to en-
brace nearly at a glance, the Church and several ofthe
most improved seats in the neighborhood, that the 81

and society, it is not exceeded by any place in Virgil

under good fencing, has every house necessary to-

bushels seed wheat, which, the purchaser can have the

may not perhaps, he necessary to assign any fur.
Their reasons for this short posponement than
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev-
er, beg leg leave to add that when this class was Is
sued few persons if any, anticipated in the least the
late panic in the money market which has almost para
yzed every kind of business, and has caused such sim
gular and unprecedented stagnation in trade. The
distress of capitalists and moned institutions has not
been confined to any sing state in our confederacy,
but it has been severely felt from one extremity OF the
country the other and has been general IN several OF
the oldest and wealthiest foreign countries. And
will not be considered matter Of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced recently the post
ponement of the drawing of important lottery, should
have similar effect on ofmuch greater magnitude
But is hoped that happy change tor these reverses
has already commenced and that all classes OF our c
zensin every part of the Union Will soon participate IN
the returning tide Of prosperity. The scheme now Of
ered by far the most attractive and splendid Of any
presented to the public in the United States; and
many, very many who adventure therein will certainly
be rewarded with prncey fortunes or handsome addi-
tons to what they already possess.
Those who have not yet taken interest in this Lot

and they are respectfully reminded, that by promptly
purchasing chances in this most splendid scheme, they
will insure an early distribution ofthe rich prizes it con-
tains-as the lottery shall positively be drawn as soon
as the sale of tickets will justify; and the prizes paid
in cash Immediately after the drawing; all persons
therefore are invited to forward and take ticket

TIL FEMALE GRAVE.
AN EXTRACT.

"For myself, l can pass by the tomb Of
man with CALM indifference; but when l
survey the grave ola female, a sigh invo-
UNFAIRLY escapes me. With the holy name
of woman | associate every soft, tender
and delicate affection. l think of her as
the young and bashful virgin, with eyes
sparkling and cheeks crimsoned with each
impassioned feeling Of her heart, Of the
kind and affectionate wife, absorbed in the
exercise of her domestic duties; as the
chaste and virtuous matron, tired with the
follies of the world, and preparing for that
grave into which she must soor, descend.
Oh! there is something in contemplating
the character Of a woman, that raises the
soul far, far above the vulgar level of soci-
ETY.. She is formed to adorn and human
ize mankind, to soothe his cares, and
strew his path with flowers. In the hour
of distress she is the rock on which he
leans for support; and when Providence
calls him from existence, her tears bedew
his grave. Can l look down upon her
tomb without emotion? Man has always
justice done to his momory-woman, ne
yer. The pages Of history lie open to the
one; but the meek and unobtrusive excel
lencies of the other sleep with her, unno-
ticed in the grave. In her may have shone
the genius of the poet, with the virtues of
the saint-the energy of the man, with the
tender s~oftness Of the woman. She too
may have passed UNDECIDED along the Ste
rile pathway of her existence, and felt for
others as | now feel for her.
