The sale of tcketsin the above Scheme not having
been sufficient to warrant the drawing to take place on
the the 22d ultmo, originally intended, without
risk of considerable loss to the manager, the drawing
of the same is hereby postponed for 80 or 90 days; no.

p C.3NFIELD, Manager
1t may not perhaps be necessary to assign any FUR
Their reasons for this short posponement than are con-
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev'
err beg leg leave to add that when this class was Is
sued few persons If any, anticipated in the least the
late manic in the money market which has almost para
lived every kind of business and has caused such SIN
gular and unprecedented stagnation in trade The
distress of capitalists and monlcd institutions has not
been confined to any sngle state in our cortederacy
but il 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 II
will not be considered matter of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced recently the post
ponemen of the drawing of an important lottery should
have similar effect on ofmuch greater magnitude.
But it is hoped, that happy change tor 'hese
has already commenced and that all classes OF our c
zens in every part of the Union will soon participate IN
the returning tide of prosperity. The scheme now Of
fered by far the most attractive and splendid OF any
ever 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 yet taken interest IN this Lot
terry now have an additional opportunity offered them;
and they respectfully reminded, that by promptly
purchasing chances in this most splendid scheme, they
will insure an early distribution OF the rich prizes con-
tainsas the lottery shall positively be drawn as soon
as the sale oftickets will justify; and the prizes paid
in cash Immediately after the drawings all persons
therefore are invited to forward and take ticket
or share at either OF the managers ofices where all

London by the East India Company to proceed
TO Canton for the purpose of bringing tea; two
for Quebec and two Cor this place; we shall,
therefore, in all probability, soon have such re-

stop to the introduction Of the spurious article
under the name of tea, which at an inferior
price has been for a long time introduced into
this province from the Unlted States
We are also pleased TO learn that the Com

be sold at cost and charges, with view, no
doubt, to prevent the illicit trade above alluded
