The sale of tcketsi in the above Scheme not having
been sufficient warrant the drawing to take place
the the 22d ultimo, originally intended, without
risk of considerable loss to the manager, the drawing
of the same is hereby postponed for so 60 days;
tce of the precise day which the Lottery will posi-
lively be drawn will however soon be given.
p. C.9NFIELD, Manager.
II may not perhaps be necessary to assign any fur
her for this short posponement than are con-
tanned i'm the above. The MANAGER would, howev-
err beg leg leave to add, that when this class is
sed few persons, if any, anticipated in the least the
late panic the money market which has almost para
lived every kind of business and has caused such SIN
guar and unprecedented stagnatlon IN trade. The
distress of capitalists and moned institutions has not
been confined to any single state in our contederacy
but it has been severely felt from extremity OF the
country the other and has been general in several OF
the oldest and weahest foreign countries. And it
will not be considered matter OF SURPRISE that the
same which have induced recently the post
ponement fthe drawing of an important lottery, should
have similar effect on one otmuch greater magnitude.
But hoped that happy change for these reverses
has already commenced and that all classes OF our ct
zens every part OF the Union will soon participate in
the returning tide prosperity. The scheme now Of
fered is by far the attractive and splendid of any
presented to the public in the United States; and
many, very many who adventure therein i'll certainly
he rewarded with princely fortunes or handsome add
| tons to what they already possess.
Those who have not yet taken an interest in this Lot
tery, now have additional opportunity offered them;
and the, are respectfully reminded, that by promptly
purchasing chances in this most splendid scheme, they
will insure ~; early distribution Of the rich prizes it con-
tans-as the lottery shall positively be drawn as soon
as the sale of tickets viii justify and the prizes paid
in cash Immediately after the drawing; all persons
therefore arc invited TO come forward and take ticket
or share at either Of the managers Offices; where all
applications personal per letter, will at any time be
promptly attended by the pubc's obedient servant,

We have extracted, for this days paper, the
substance of the proceedings of the Democratic
Convention which assembled at Harrisburg on the
Ath March, for the purpose of nominating Go
vernon for Pennsylvania. There were present
Deputies from 40 counties, and from the City of
Philadelphia. They unanimously nominated the
present Governor j. dndreiO Shulze as the Can
ddate for the ensuing election. Yet what imparts
still greater interest to this Convention, is the
resolution which was passed, by SO TO votes, in
! favor OF Gen. .9ndret1 Jackson. The resolution
does not contain nomination of Gen. j. as a
candidate for the Presidency, like 10 that OF the
State of Tennessee. In truth, the whole proceed
ing is not very well calculated TO please either the
friends or opponents Of the General. The night
previous, il Seems, a. Caucus Of 10 members a
! motion to nominate him negatived by large
majority; Of about 100 to s or i0.-When the
resolution approving the conduct Of Gen. J. and
n expressing their mistaken confidence in him, wa,
brought forward in Cow enton, next day, variou,
E motions were made 10 postpone t--but in vain
E A strong tide ran against any posiponement. |
4 was upon that occasion, 1t seems, that MIR. Josia

II Jackson, but 10 his own fayorite candidate Wu

weeks; and the horrible state in which the poor
slaves are found, destroys them on the passage.
One instance may suffice. The Sequenda Rosalia,
captured by the Athol, lost in her passage up to
Sierra Leone, 80 slaves, all of whom except ten or
twelve, died Of absolute starvation
What the sum Of human misery must amount
to during the passage across the Atlantic in the
SHIPS that escape,we can only form some idea Of from
the state OF the few that captured for very
lew Indeed they are, compared with those that eude
the British cruisers. The number of vessels
brough, for adjudication al Sierra Leone, in the
year 1894, as stated by the Commissioners, amount
ed only to six, out OF which the number of slaves
cmancipated was 1245. The total number of
cases adludIcated since the establishment of the
Mixed Commission, is stated to be fifty two and
the total number Of the slaves emsncpaled up to
the frst OF January 1925, 516o. In the year 825,
they report the condemnation of six ships, having
on board 1850 slaves.
here are SO many avenues left open on the
extensive coast in which the dealers can assemble
their victlms that it would require half the British
navy TO close the whole OF them. Commodore
bulien states that he rarely visited port, in which
nc did not find these wretched beings lying 10
CHAINS ready to be embarked as an oppor
tunity should occur; when once cargo is thus
assembled, it requires only about six hours to put
on board 400 or 500 slaves-the traders therefore
watch the moment that any Of our cruizers leave
the part OF the coast where the negroes are thus
ready 10 be shipped slip out Of the rver and, when
once clear OF the land there is little chance OF their
voyage being interrupted"
