The sale of tickctsi the above Scheme not having

p ClNFXELD, Manager
1t may not perhaps, be necessary to assign any fur
ther reasons for this short posponement than
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev-
or, beg leg leave to add that when this class is
sued few persons if any, anticipated in the least the
late panic in the money market which has almost para
lyzed 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 sins state in confederacy,
but has been severely felt from extremity of the
country to the other and has been general in several of
the oldest and wealthiest foreign countries. And it
will not be considereda matter of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced recently the post
ponement ofthe drawing of important lottery, should
have similar effect on one otmuch greater magnitude
But is hoped that happy change for these rcverses
has already commenced and that all classes of our c
zens every part of the Union will soon participate IN
the returning tide ofprosperity The scheme now Of
tcred is by far the most attractive and splendid OF any
ever presented the public in the United States; and
many very many who adventure therein will certainly
be rewarded with princely fortunes or handsome add
tons to what they already possess.
Those who have not yet taken an interest IN this Lot
terry, now have additional opportunity offered them;
and they are respectfully reminded that by promptly
purchasing chances in this most splendid scheme, they
wnsure early distribution Of the rich prizes it con-
tains-as the lottery shall positively be drawn as SOON
the sale of tickets will justify; and the prizes paid
in cash Immediately after the drawing; all persons
therefore are 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 to by the pubc's obcdent servant,
