EVERY EFFECT HAS CAUSE, AND A CAUSE EQUAL
TO THE EFFECT. The recent sale of lease of the
lot on the northeast of Broadway and Fulton
street, at $I4,5OO per annum, with ACCOMPANYING
obligation, swelling the rent to about $4,000 pei
annum, IS at present the subject of much conversa-
ton IN monied circles. The lot has width of 80
feet on Broadway, and depth of 70 feet on Fulton
street, and is very desrably located property one
halt OF New Y ork passing its frent and one hal of
brooklyn Its side, daily. But lest readers should
take this sale criterion of the value of property
or OF AefoLy IF the times, (Which latter error would
be as much to be regretted the other) it ou1ht to
be known that portion of the old rookeries at pres
ent on this lot, is occupied for purposes which car
afford any amount OF rent, be it extravagan
On the hrst floor for example, is office for the sale
OF numbers and lottery tickets; and on the second
floor are two Offices occupied for similar purposes
the being place for the sale of policies and
tickets and the other the head quarters of the mana
gers OF The Maryland and other lotteries, whence
they distribute tickets the 400 sub-offces kent
open In the city for their sale. 1t is estimated that
the receipts of the Offices first named are not less
IMAM three hundred dollars per day from the sale of
numbers, one-thrd of which, upon an average is
proht-and from the sale of tickets about half that
amount on which there is profit of about fifteen per
cent, to say nothing of the occasional prizes drawn
par;, by the office man. In the latter named Office
there are distributed and sold from five to ten thou
sand dollars worth of tickets per day, the profit on
which is not less than 80 I-3 per csnt.-sometmes
more and sometimes less.
These Offices were started here many years ago,
heir customers know where to find them without the

ence they can afford to pay high rents II is doubt

We append no remarks upon the morality of the 7
usIness OF selling numbers and tickets in violation
the law, and under the very of our public
lnctoAaries. reserving the information we possess T
this subject and the reflections arising herefrom
u a future day. Our purpose this time is simply
prevent our friends owning property in Broadway
ON going mad on account of the sale referred to.
