tees of the Public Library of Kentucky
and the management of the gift concert
announce the postponement of the

have made this postponement necessary.
The financial panic, which has for the
last two months paralyzed the business
Of every section of this country and of
Europe, has prevented thousands from
Investing in tickets. The epidemics
pervading almost the entire South have
cut off large and available market.
And, too, the public, judging from the
effects of these causes, have expected
postponement, aud have declined to in
: vest without more positive assurance
of the drawing taking place on a fixed
day. All interested desire full draw
ing. but for the reasons just stated this
could not be had on the 3d of Deem
Der, but the short postponement now
announced will secure it.
The management have met with un.
precedented success. The sales of
tickets, the proceeds Of which have
already been received, amount to over
MILLION DOLLARS, with number of
agencies in this country yet to hear
from, and all those in Europe. Thus
drawing Scaling the gifts one-half)
:, could be had now, but the management
deem it best to have postponement
and q full dru,Oing.
The postponement assures the sale Of
all Me tickets and A FULL DRAWING. That
this determination will meet with the
appreciation Of nearly every one inte.
rested is made apparent by the very
: numerous letters received from every
t section of this country and the Canadas
: asking for o postponement. This action
. of the management will work no detri.
ment to any, but will be for the good of
: all. by it the fortunate ticket-hoders
will receive their gifts in fuN, while it
; it will not affec. those who do not draw
gifts.
+. In making this announcement, the
management emphalicaAy state that there
shnR be no further poslponement, and to
this end all agents will be imperatiyely
required to close up and transmit their
, accounts to this Office by the 2lst of
March. THOS. E. BRAMLETTE,
