And approved notes, securing payment in either money

any number not less than 30 tickets.
This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of tbe pri
vate buildings to be ereited in the City of
Two beautiful designs are already felecled for the entire
fronts on two of the public squares; from these prawings
it ispropofed to erect two centre and four corner buildings,
as soon as possible after this lottery is fold, and to convey
them, when complew, to the fortunate adventurers, in
the manner described in the fchemc for the Hotel Lottery.
A nott deduSion of five per cent, will be: made to defray
the necessary ejepenfes of printing, &c. and the surplus
will be made a part of the fund intended for theNatisnal
University, to be erected within the city of Washington.
The Drawing will commence as soon as the tickets are
fold off.—The money prizes will be payable in thirty days
after it is finilhad ; and any prizes for which fortunate
numbers aie not produced within twelve months after th«
drawing is doled, are to be considered as given towards
the funi for the Uiiiverfity ; it being determined to fettle
the whole business in a year from the ending of the draw
ing, and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real securities given for the payment of the Prizes,
are held by the President and two Dire&ors of the Bank
of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the a
mount of the lottery.
' The twenty four gentlemen who by appointment of
the late Commiflioners assisted in the management of the
Hotel Lottery are requested to undertake this arduous talk
a second time on behalf of the public ; a fufficient num
bar of these having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the
friends to a National University and the other federal ob
jects may conti»ue to favor the design.
By accounts received from the difterent parts of the
Continent as well as from Europe 1 , where the tickets
have been sent for sale, the public are allured that the
drawing will speedily commen»e, and that the care and
caution unavoidably necessary to insure a fafc disposal of
the tickets, has rendered the lfcort suspension indifpenlable.
