a have no doubt the whole Western and
Southern States are being flooded with the Lot
terv Circulars. The Dove; and have no
Janbt the swindlers are connected with the
r,pu arrested in New York short time since
The face of the whole thing bears falsehood'
for If am acquainted with your laws, Lottery
tickets cannot be sold in your State, nor drawn
in Delaware."
The Tennessee gentleman judges correctly
Lotteries are not tolerated, in any shape, by the
laws of Ohio, and the Grand Union Fund Lot
terry is a grand and magnificent humbug and
swiudle. and nothing else. Worth & Co" Is
sctitious firm, and but for the facilities hereto
fore afforded by the Post Office department and
Postmasters at different points, the Lottery, Giii
Fntsrprize. and similar sEindles, would have
burst up long ago. They have drawn their life
blooJ from innocent and eredulous victims
through the Post Office department for years
and to Mayor Tiemann OF New York, Sergeant
R;rnev. and Postmaster General Brown, the
country is greatly indebted fT exposing and
routing the haFpies. " The Carrier DOre" fol
June and July, 1885" purPOIts to be " Vol \
No. g." Circulation 5000" The follow
inc cool Caution is the very first paragraph
Its impudenee has no parallel;
Cautioa:-LsItsry Frauds
OgFIcE OF THE MANAGERS or THE U P LOTTERY
May 2s,h. 1858
Beware Of illegal and irresponsible Lotteries
that are advertised throughout the country in
Circulars and Papers, Purporting TO have then
head quarters in New York We would eau
ton the public against all such as frauds
There are no legal Lotteries in New \ ork and
| all money invested in them is so much thrown
away. Purchase tickets only in the legal Union
Fund Lottery.
The tickets Of the Union Fund Lottery have
the Manaqers' stamp on them, and bear ouI
Iithooraphed siguature-all others are worth
| less. Again, VIC say, beware Of these swindlers
WORTH CO,
Cleveland, Ohio.
Next is "A Card" signed E P Gaines
stating that he has t" retired from the manage
ment of the Union Fund Lotteries" and aftel
thanking /" his former patrons for the generous
z -
mana cement OF the Union Fund Lotteries II
future will be under the supervision of the fol
lowing gentlemen, viz: d. A. Clinton, Esq re
Gently manager of the Royal Cuban Lotteries
D S Worth, Esq, well known capitalist o
Wilmington, and Geo ". Lane, Junior partner
of E. P. Gaines & Co, under the name and
style of Worth & Co. The new firm viii be re-
sponsible for all outstanding prizes" The
GOODNESS of this lie is but little short of the
freezing impudence of the first.
Then follows "a list of the larger prizes sold
during the month of April, 1855" The list
iIIs two columns, in sums ranging from 81 o "a
$4,000, scattered broadcast all over the West
and South, several magnificent ones to ladies',
and one of SI,sO0 on a single ticket to a Meth
odist clergyman in Illinois By the following
it viii be seen that there are some .'grumblers'
who patrouise the Union Temple of Fortune, -
though the Dove says, Every day! the Prizes
go to make the hearts Of our patrons happy"
Notice

the Lottery has been drawn in which the writers
desired 10 have their orders filed.
In such cases, we are obliged to answer them
in the next best Lottery that will be drawn after

Generally, our selection of the Lottery gives
satisfaction to our patrons; but occasionally,

lar to have their orders filed in certain class,
will please, in future, mail their orders in suff
cient time 10 have them reach US befoTe the
