Grand University AOttery.

The sale of ticketsi in the above Scheme not having
been sufficient to warrant the drawing to take placeon
the the 22d ultimo, as originally intended, without q
risk of considerable loss to the manager, the drawing
of the same is hereby postponed for so Or so days; no.
tice of the precise day on which the Lottery will posi-
lively be drawn will however soon be given:
p C.3NFIELD, Manager.
It NAV not, perhaps, be necessary to assign any FUR
Their reasons for this short postponement than are con-
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev-
err, beg leg leave to add, that when TINS eiass was =,
sued, few persons, if any, anticipated IN the least, the
late panic in the money marke which has almost para
lived every kind of business, and has caused sucn 4 SIN
eular and unprecedented stagnation IN trade: Inc
distres. of capitalists and monled institutions has not
been confined to any single state III our cohtederacy'
but il has been severely felt from one extremity OF the
country to the other, and has been general i'll several OF
the oldest and wealthiest foreign countries. ana II
will not be considered a matter OF surprise, that the
same causes which have induced so recently the post,
ponement o fthe' drawing of an important lottery, shou'o
have a similar effect on one ofmlch greater magnitude.
But it is hoped, that IA happy change tor these reverses
has already commenced, aud that all classes OF our citl'
zensin every part of the Union will soon participate III
the returning tide of prosperity. The scheme now OF
fered is by far the most attractive and splendid OF any

many, very many who adventure therein will certainly
be rewarded with princely fortunes or handsome addi'
tons to what they already possess.
Those who have not yet taken an interest IN this Lot

and the. are respectfully reminded, that by promptly
purchasing chances in tbs most splendid scheme, they
will insure an early Distribution of the rich prizes it con-
tains--as the lottery shall positively be drawn as soon
