Tickets* at Fit? Dollars each, is Subject to a dedu&ion of twelve and a half per cent. The public utility of extending this wharf, is too evident to re quire any comment, to those who are acquainted with the town and harbour of New-Haven ; to those who are not, fuffice it to fay, that its beautiful situation is not surpassed, if equalled by any ; be ing in the heart of a country, which may, with propriety, be said to be the garden of America. The harbour lays open to the lound but by reaion of the flats, this wharf is necessarily extended to the channel, where ships can load and unload ; and when com pleat ed, will be the moil extensive and commodious wharf in America, the whole extent being about 3~4ths of a inile; and not only the mercantile interest of New-Haven and the towils adjacent, but the maritime interest of all the States will be benefited by it. The general with that prevails in the minds of all classes of people, for thefuccefsof this enterprise, together with the very great advan tage which this scheme holds out to adventurers (there being more capital prizes for the number of tickets than any yet published in America) induce the managers to believe the tickets wi-11 meet with a speedy sale.

A lift of the fortnnate numbers will be publiflied, and the prizes paid on demand, by the managers.
