FIFTH AND LAST GIFT CONCERT IN
AID OF THE Public LIBRARY OF KEN.
TUcKY.-A CARD TO THE PUBLIC. The
management have determined to have
the drawing Of tho Fifth and Laet
Gift Concert of the Public Library of
kentucky, on the 30th day of Novem-
Der next. We believe now that all the
tickets will be sold. and that the draw
ing will be full one, but whether all
are sold or not, the drawing will never
theless certainly come off on the day
appointed.
The special object of this card is to
call meeting of the ticket-holders at
Public Library Hall, on the 2Oth of
November, to make arrangements III
connection with the committee ap-
pointed by the Trustees to superintend
the counting of the tags representing
the numbers Of tickets sold. While
there is no actual necessity for the
presence Of ticket-holders, as under
our arrangements the interests of all
are equally cared for. &c. ct the same
time l would greatly prefer that as
many of those interested as can, would
attend this meeting and see each for
himself how perfectly fair and Impair
tial the distribution must be.
Every arrangement has been made
for the drawing-but little more than
month remains for the sale of the
remainder of the tickets. and whatever
is done must be done promptly.
