Barnuln's Biggest Bali,

In his great Jenny Lind speculation Mr.:
L. L. Barnum made some $500, 900, but if
his proposition, made by him recently while
presiding at the great Maine law meeting in
Metropolitan Hall in New York, should be
accepted, he would easily and honestly pock
ct ten times that round and handsome sum.
and at the same time put ten times the amount
Of his own profit to the social, moral, and
religious welfare Of the city. The follow
ing Is his statement and proposal, viz -
There are over 5000 licensed groq sbons
IN this city, and more than 1000 unlicensed,
making in all, 1000, and probably, 5000.
But calling it 1000, and estimating that
each rummery receives only SO per day
for liquor, (and less sum than that would
not pay the rents and other cxpenses) the
amount paid for Intoxicating drinks, at retail
in New York city in one year, is S25. .55O,-
000, besides the immense amount paid for
