N. B. To fivoor those who may take a quantity of
Tickcts, the prize of 40,000 dollars will be the L * st drawn
ticket, and the 30,000 the last but one :
And approved notes, fecujing payment in either money
er prizes, in ten days alter drawing, will be received for
any number not less than 30 tickets.
This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of thepri
vate buildings to be erevfted in the City of Washington— ,
Two beautiful designs are already fel"Aed for the entire
fronts on two of the public squares; from these prawings c
it is proposed to erect two centre and four comer buildings, a
as soon as possible after this lottery is fold, and to convey a
them, when complete, to the fortunate adventurers, in I
the manner described in the scheme for the Hotel Lottery. |
A nett dedu&ion of five per cent, will be made to defray ,
the oeceffary expenses of printing, &c. and the surplus 1
will be made a part of the fund intended for the Natianal :
University, to be erected within the city of Washington. <
The rawing will commence as soon as the tickets are 1
fold off.—The rkfiney prizes will bepayAlain thirty days (
after it is finifhad ; and ajiy pr zes for whkh fortunate (
slumbers ate not produced within twelve months after the 1
drawing » clofcd, are to be considered as given towards i
the fun., for the University ; it being determined to fettle i
thfi wliole business in a year from the c iding of the draw- ]
inj, and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real fecuritiesgiven for the payment of the Prizes, ,
,re held by the Prcfident and two Diredors of the Bank ;
of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the a
mount at the lottery.
The twenty four gentlemen who by appointment of ;
the late CommiSioners afTffled in the management of the
Hotel Lottery are requeued to undertake this arduous task
a second time on behalf of the public ; a fufficient num
ber of these having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the
friends to a National University and the other federal ob
jects may continue to favor the design.
By accounts received from the different parts of the
Continent as well as from Europie, where the tickets
have been sent for sale, th; public are a flu red that the
drawing will fpeyiily commenae, and that the care and
eautio;i unavoidably ncceffary to insure a fafe disposal of
th* tickets, has rendered the stu<r fufpeqfion indifpcufable.
