Alexandria Times.-The opponents
of the amendment disingenuously
claim that the bond of $5, 900, 900 which
the lottery company is required to
furnish for the fulfillment of it's char
ter obligations covers the entire period
of twenty five years. This is simply
reckless assertion by those who know
better-who know that the purpose of
the bond is to secure the payment of
81 ,250,000 each and every year, and
that in the event of failure to pay each
year the charter will be forfeited aud
the bond collected. Why will not our

We wish to call the attention of the friends
and patrons of the COURIER TO the necessity
Of their being on the alert, in the matter OF
judicial publications. {sheriff7s 5a4es especial
iy|, as q neglect on their part to give positive
Instructions as 60 where they desire such
advertisement published, is apt to result in
our being deprived of the patronage that
would otherwise be given to us The sheriff
OF this parish has been making himself es
pecially jealous in the matter Of securing
sheriifs sales for the paper of which he is
director and etockholder, and several publica-
tions of that nature have appeared in that
paper which the parties interested would
have selected to be done in the COURIER, had
they been consulted and others have been
diverted from us at the special solicitation Of
the sheriff or his deputies serving the papers
In the matter of seizures.
To those who prefer to patrani2e any other
paper in this parish we have 20 desire to in
terfere with their preferences, but our friends
who wish to favor us with their patronage
are earnestly requested 10 zee that the proper
officers are instructed TO have the publication
done in the CouRrER-and they are especially
warned against allowing themselves TO be in

success of the Mexican and Havana
Lotteries The destruction of its
charter would not prevent these
foreign lotteries from carrying on, their
business here. You will thereby give
them { &c monopoly, and one too, which
wouldHnot pay Louisiana dollar,
whilsetaking from the people all they
are willing to invest in tickets. People
will take chances you know, and if
they cannot buy them from home
institution, they will from a foreign.
You cannot do the foreign lotteries
greater benefit, than by destroying the
Louisiana State Lottery. Aud we give
it as our belief that there are those
among what are called Antis. who are
throwing dust in the eyes of the peo.
Pile on the amendment question, with
the sole object in view of advancing
the interests of the Mexican Lottery
and possibly others. You cannot
avoid the selling of Lottery tickets.
It is as impossible as preventing them
from liquor drinking, or submission to
humbuggery. You gentlemen Of the
alliance know this from the fact that
whilst you profess to be opposed TO the
Lottery, many of yon carry tickets in
your pockets.
But there is something in your
denuneiation and your purposes, even
more glariagly contradictory and in-
consistent than all we have said,
which we propose TO point out to you
In our next. We do it in all good
feeling, but we know that before you
can accomplish the real good you aim
at, you must see yourselves as others
