1t may not, perhaps be necessary to assign any fur
Their reasons for this short postponement than
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev-
err beg leg leave to add, that when this class is
saed few persons, any, anticipated in the least the
late panic in the money market which has almost para
lived 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 single state in our conederacy,
but it has been severely felt from one extremity OF the
country to the other and has been general in several OF
the oldest and weathiest foreign countries. And 1t
will not be considered matter of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced so recently the post.
ponement of the drawing Of important lottery, should
have similar effect on one ofmuch greater magnitude.
But is hoped that happy change tor these reverses
has already commenced and that all classes OF our cit
zens in every part of the Union will soon participate IN
the returning tide of prosperity. The scheme now Of
fered is by far the most attractive and splendid OF any
ever presented to the public in the United States and
manv, very many who adventure therein will certainly
be rewarded with princely fortunes or handsome addi
tons to what they already possess.
